It proved a lar- ge but dingy house, once the- reel- - dence of a prosperous family, but nbwl, reduced to the status of a sort of • boarding house for sick persons. By the dim • light of a porch lamp he pressed the bell, and waited. After a considerable period the door was openedby a young woman in nurse's uniform.

Cal wondered how a nurse could be fri- ,volous in the preserve of sickness, but his color deepened a trifle under her eyes.

Rope for stock halters, hay tork - and gran sling quipumilt, the tying. of animals or Materials, hoists or • holdint. is used on every farmstead. A knowledge that will enable the farm boy to tie qoickly the various !mots and hitches will save mueh time and reduce the possibility of accident on all ()Pen:I:Lions where rope is used. The ability to quickly splice a broken hay fork rope at 'clic time when it is most needed will save hoY, tiro 0 and rouble. Rope Material. Rope is 'made of various materials such as cotton, 'hemp,: Jute and fla. The rope most frc' quently used onthe farm, is made from hemp, imported from Common rope is generally composed of. three or four strand. The four - strand, rope is stronger than the three-arand of equal diameter. Strength of Manilla Rope. The safe load for the Various dia meters of manilla (three -strand) rope is about one-sixth of the:actual breaking load. For three -strand row:dila rope of one inah diametei the safe load is under '1,000 pounds while the breaking load is nearly 6,500 pounds. Half-inch rope shoo1r. not be subjected to a load greater than 230 pounds if it is to last and give service. The breaking strength of laelf-inch manilla rope is 1,620 Pounds. A three-quartei• inch rope can be expected to carry 525 pounds as a safe load, or 3,600 pounds witl. very great risk to both material ano operator. Rope should not be ussd over small pulleys or runs if it is 1 lett and give good service. Many the hay fork pulleys used are 1' • than eight inches in diameter, an • are very bard on the rope, causing heavy strain; tear, and early destroy '"tion. Tar applications to rope, whie, increasing tire rope's resistance weathering, reduces the strength about twenty -live per sent. Ropy should be kept dry. The Short Splice. The short splice is of great service. It is quickly made and strong. The weaving of the strands of two three - strand ropes together in the form of a splice increases the diameter at the Point of repair to the extent of mak- ing this type of splice objectionable if the rope is to be run over pulleys. To make a short splice, unravel 'the ends of the two pieces of rope that • it is desired to splice or fifteen inches if the rope is one inch in diameter. or less if working on a smaller rope. After unravelling wrap the ends of the strands to prevent them untwist- ing. Bring the strands together by tying by pairs with -an overhand 'knot, the strands from opposite encls of the ropes bents joined by ten splice. This done, the work is corn pTeeed by weaving the strands into the rope in both directions, using a fid or a tapered and pointed wooden pin to open passed under every other strand for'a distance of six or eight +inches each ,way from the cenf tre o :lie splice. This done the remaining rinds of strands are cut off and the 'vor.lt completed. '''•;;* Long Splice. This type of splice is used -Where is desired to make a union.of two Nieces of rope and still retain nearly 'he same diameter at the splice. A long splice in a three -strand ropenvill he composed of not more than 'freir. etrands at any - one point, and 'the 'length of the union is very much ereater than In the short splice.
