It is estimated that well -housed fatm machinery depreciates at the rate of from three to twelve per cent, a year, the -rate being highest for eorn-bindere threshing machines and other complicated machinery. This statement means that the life of these expensive helpers- is practically cut in half When neglected.. I know of a grain drill, purchased in 1913 for $100. It was used to seed about seventy-five acres and never placed in a shed.. In the spring of 1917 the dnill sold for' VG. It would have been worth at least $70 with good housing. Weather is the cause of heavy loss. Ithety macbineey must be limbered up before ming; a rusted lcnotter on a binder may mean that extra help must be secured to bind the missed bundles by hand; rust increas- es the draft for horses; it weakens the machinery, often causing breaks and delaying the work. If a hay -loader is in good working order it can pay for itself in a single afternoon. The tool shed lessens both rust and decay. I knew of a man aim took better care of his cows than his ntachinery. When he, bought a new hayeloader he woald have had to 'rearrange the ether machinery in his machine shed; but he was always too busy to do this, and so the hay loader stadd out in the field summer and winter. It did good work until the crop of the third year. With about fifteen loads of hay lying in the windrow, one of the sills, badly decayed around a bolt, broke. Four men and three teams stood idle while one man went back to the barn to get a brace and bit, an oak board and four bolts to splice the broken timber. The four bolts had to be removed from the binder. It took more than an hour to do tbis repelling and before the first other sill broke.

The -broiler busheass is a good aide line, not .because the broilers are so unusually profitable but becau-se the poultryman cermet avoid raising broil- ers 'at the same Nine he raises pullets.

The broilers may make even a greater profit if they are carefully fed and hatched from etock whigh produces vigorous chicks that grow rapidly. In many small towns there is not a good market for broilers because many donsumers have their own, flocks and many housewives prefer a large fat hen so that there will be enough poultry meat for a fair-sized family on Sunday and enough left over for the Monday dinner. Broiler meat has usually been considered a luxury. Whether that is true or not depends on the' point of view of the consumer and the size of bis purse. At least it pays to disregard the local broiler market if it is not paying a profitable price and ship the stock to a reliable commission dealer in some eity where broilers are appreciated. Often the hotel trade will take quite a few broilers. Hotel managers.usu- ally prefer two -pound stock which is evenly graded as they wish to serve equal portions to their patrons. They do not wish to serve broilers ranging TUE CliERFUL CIIF13,1)15 13T1 in rtilrp?..d ,tz:tion now And VIM depresseld eeeere . T,'!./e.

Frequently hotel men prefer to buy of commission dealers who can always furhish broilers of the desired weight whenever they are wanted rather than trade with producers who ?nay be careles-s about grading their stock and shipping it on time. Broilers of one breed sell the best as they look the best in the crate and are more apt to be uniform in size and quality. Private consumers seem to like broilers' the best when they weigh about three pounds. The three - pound bird makes a meal for an aver- age family, while the two -pound bird is a little smala For this reason many of the local dealers catering to private tvade will prefer three -pound stock Broilers can be fattened if they ate penned up fer ten days and fed a ration ef corn meal and sour milk' made into 10'sloppymash. Reduce the exercise and increase the feed and the healthy young cockerel can hardly help becoming a fat broiler. Skinny broilers are not profitable.

The hens that meat early or becolne overfat should be marketed. The hens that have reached two and three years of age have usually passed their most profitable stage and they should be replaced by vigorous pul- lets. Seine farmers do very well by marketing dressed poultry to private customers. Others save time by sell- ing the birds live weight to local deal- ers with the idea that the lower price received is much more than balanced by the work elicreinated. When old hens are to be sola it pays to telephone early in the -week and make arrangements With the deal- er who is to buy them This is better than hauling a load of hens to town and canyas,sing the main street fora buyer. Usually a dealer will wish to buy the hens on Thursday morning so that he cart have them dressed and ready for Sunday trade. He will like to be sure of a week's supply of poul- try several days in advance -so if the sale is made by telephone on Monday the birds can be caught on Wednesday night anal delivered early the next morning.

Ventilated box ears or stock ears so tthrough hat the air could circulate rough Where a large number of chicks are being raised in one brooder house, difficulty is often experien,ced in pre- venting the birds from piling up at night after the heat is removed, anti causing serious losses. To prevent this overcrowding the binds should be taught to roost as early as possible. If roosts are made out of one -by -three- inch strips placed flat so as to provide a three-inch roosting surface, and these are placed twelve to fifteen inthes from the fipor, the birds can easily be taught to go to roost. If the chicks do not go up on the roost of their OVV/1 accord they should he gent- ly placed on the -roosts after dark for one or two nights until they get the roosting habit, This season of the year a constant lookout should be kept by all poultry keepers fon mites in the houses and coops, A mite is very small and dif- ficult to see unless 'special maid' is made. They are usually found in the cracks near roosts. They appear as minute, gray or reddish specks, When present in large numbers they often have the appearante of dust. Mites reproduce very rapidly and WO a great source of annoyance to the bens when present in large numbers. The mites live by sucking blood from the hens.

The indoor garden will prove her solace during the long winter months: Green leaves and brilliant blossoms within doors help keep alive one's faith and interest in the rejuvenating power of spring to come. This indoor garden requires little but exertion onl,'crur part; there is practically no expense involved. The temperature of the ordinary living room is sufficient ta give blossoms for the entire winter from the ordin- ary plants. In the first place it is well to con- sider, before the severe frost comes, jest what you wish to transplant from the garden. The selection should be confined to plants that will blossom if transplanted. There are plants which, to theive and do well, must have their period of rest. Roses be- long to thie class. They must lie dormant for a Nam and though,- you take them into the house, they will not bloom before the next spring Or S01110111% not the natural habitat. They are in- door plants that do excellently out of docirs rather than garden blossoms that may be transplantal. The vincas that trail so gracefully from your verandah box, well bear transplanting and will decorate eno less gracefully the window box or flower stana in dining room or palter. Theze indoor boxes are sold by.florist shops and up -.to -slate furniture estab- lishments, but make your own! They stand on legs about two and one-half feet high, are usually from three to four feet long and from eight to twelve inches in depth. To clever housewife or the girl or boy handy with tools can easily make such a box and paint it attractively. Wood,s as well as garden yield a harvest for the window garden,. Violets and ferns will live and thrive but great care must be observed in taking them up. Unless a large enough ball of earth is lifted with the roots so that the roots are not left exposed to the air for even # moment, the plant will die. Dig the earth about the plant d,eeply enough so that,.you The most satisfactory of the garden will not bruise or injure the rootean plants for indoor cultivation is the the least; then place immediately in gerarrium. The plants should be taken basket or conveyor, and transfer as rapidly as possible. Calendulas, marigolds, daisies and zinnias with their coarse, woody stain, will ao excellently from seed sown indoors in October; and the nastur- tiums will give flaming bloom for Christmas decoration.
