off and both she and the .bicycle were

quite a novelty in the way of a sun-

stands almost nine feet in height and
on the numerous branches there are
forty sunflowers and buds. Most of
the sunflowers seen in that section
comprise but a single stalk and one

VERY farmer should care for
his farm buildings in such a
way as to maintain them i in
good serviceable condition
and so conserve his resources gen
.eraily. On most farms there are
many details in themselves of minor
importance, but in the aggregate of
tremendous influence. Carelessness
of the exterior of buildings is an in-
dication, generally, of the conditions
existing in their interior. Slovenly
surroundings and general run-down
conditions are the hall -marks ,of in-
eptitude and mismanagement.
The farmer inay not be able to
change the location of his farm,
but to a • great extent he can
control its appearance and general
conditions by seeing that the roof8
