BEST FARM WAGON.

An Indiana Experience" from Which Farmers in Other Sections May Draw a Valuable Lesson.

I have often wondered why it was that manufacturers did not make farm wagons more especially and particularly adapted for use on the farm than they do. The kind that are usually put out all over the country do very well on the road, but they do not fill the bill on the farm. The wheels are as a rule too high and it takes one side of a tenacre field to turn round in, unless the body is made so narrow that it won’t hold anything. We have had our farm wagons of late years made to order in the following manner: The front wheels are 40 inches high, hind wheels 50 inches. We prefer broad to narrow

a@ } @ b @ T, \ == z\\ 7= {/& \:*&tn;.‘.:_ay s : ST gt TN LTI /(S A e A LOW WAGON WITH RACK ABOVE. tires for farm:use. The front axle is made eight inches shorter than the hind one. Hind bolster nine inches wide, front one ten inches. The breakis fastened to the gear. The standards are made of iron, projecting above bolster six inches, and extending down through same and taking a nut. The width of body is 51 inches, almost a foot wider than ordinary beds. The front wheels turn under the wagon bed, and by this means you can turn round in a very small space, as is often necessary to do on the farm. The doubletree extends out on either side even with the front wheel, thus throwing your horses far apart, and on the road they follow the wagon track. ‘

In addition to the regular wagon body we take two scantling, 16 feet long, two inches thick and six inches wide, and on this we bolt on cross pieces (a), two at each end, one on top-and another on bottom of rail, and then bolt one piece in middle (b) on the under side of rail. This makes a good support for the floor, and thus we have a good rack for hauling all kinds of grain, grass or straw. Outside this frame, between the rails and hind wheels, we nail a board (c) about three feet long and 15 inches wide, to keep the hay or grain off of the wheel. Or instead of board, a frame can be made out of Ix3-inch slats to answer the same purpose. - This rack is also very convenient to haul threshed wheat, potatoes, fertilizer or anything that is in bags, and being low down is easily loaded and unloaded. Ifa farmer tries this sort of an outfit once he will not have any other. It costs a little more {0 have a - wagen made in this style than to buy one as usually found on the market, but this additional costis nothing compared with the great convenience found in using such a avagon for all purposes on the farm.—Orange Judd Farmer.

ELECTRIC FARM ROADS.

When the Population Is Dense Their Constrn_gtion Could Not Fail to Prove Profitable.

The good roads problem is assuming a new and interesting phase. The success of rural electric railways has led some of our progressive farmers to consider the practicability of a cooperative system of electric lines on country roads for use in, hauling both passenger and freight traffic. Just at this time, when steel and all the other materials entering into railway construction are so high, it may not be advisable to enter extensively into a work involving such heavy expenditure, but in many sections of our great agricultural states, where for long distances roadways are lined with producing farms which stretch back perhaps for miles, and where the quantity of products involves a vast amount of expensive transportation, made wuncertain through the influence of weather conditions upon the roads—under such circumstances there is no doubt but the plan would prove entirely feasible, while the effect upon the social life of the farm would be immeasurably advantageous. The proposition involves the construction of a track at one side of the roadway with switches and side tracks and a main trolley system. This main system to be used by individual farmers at will, employing each his own cars as he now employs his wagons and buggies. Running from the main line to each farm would be a side track which may be extended to barns, cribs' and bins to suit the wishes of the individual farmer. He could load his product when he chose, selecting those times when markets were most promising of returns, or take his family to church or institute, social gatherings or shopping, with swiftness and ease, the only thing to interfere, perhaps, being heavy SNOWS.

The American farmer is studying the economies of agriculture these days as never before. He is becoming in.very truth a “business man.” He is learning what the railway man and the manufacturer long ago learned through necessity, that it is not the first cost, but the expense of operation that counts, He knows that the present conditions of roads make transportation the most expensive item in his list. If the farmers’ electric railway is to lessen that expense it is bound to come.—Farmers’ Voice. }

Lively Demand for Angoras,

The Shepherds’ Bulletin says demand for Angora goats is increasing rapidly. Inquiries are mostly from the southern and western points of the United States. The demand from the Pacifie northwest is brisk, especially on the western slope. Angorasare best adapted to rough land. Their favorite food is leaves and bark, and they will leave the best grass for brouse. Angoras are therefore more valuable than sheep in very rough sections, and will grow fat where sheep will hardly exist.

GROW PRIME FRUIT.

Those Who Do It and Get Acquainted with the Consumer Are Bound to Make Money.

Every grower of fine fruit should aim to get acquainted in a business way with his customers. I have a friend who grows superb berries, and in every box he puts a ticket giving his name and the variety of fruit, and in the largest type he says: *‘Price always five cents above the market price.? With berries selling at eight or ten cents ordinarily he gets five cents more, and that means a big profit. Can he sell them? Certainly. He sells more than any other grower in the county, and gets his price. Then, too, his berries are so fine and large he gets them picked for one-half cent less a quart than others, and heé*makes it pay both ways. : . g

In the fruit growing of the future there must be a cutting down of the acreage of the majority of the growers. They must grow larger and better fruit, of greater beauty and higher quality, and the grower who gets the closest in touch with the consumer will get the highest price. Another thing will be the production on a tremendous scale by a few growers, by companies, with certain lines of fruits in certain localities suited to them. The small growers might do better by cooperation, perhaps, as to methods of packing and selling and transportation, and it will bring more money to pay some specialist to place your products on the market in more desirable shape. ™ I haye not said anything of the home supply. It is one of the most important things of all. Every farm home should have the greatest possible variety of fruit. You do not take interest enough to do this now, perhaps, but think it over, and you will see how important it is. Plant your grounds with beautiful trees and make home surroundings beautiful. your lawn attractive with beautiful flowers and the inside of your homes attractive as well. There is nothing better than this.—J. H. Hale, in Rural World.

PROTECTING SHRUBS. An Easily Made Covering That Keeps Out the Cold and Prevents Crushing by Heavy Snow. Protection against cold and protection against crushing snow are both furnished to shrubs and plants by such a covering as is shown in the cut. First, hay is bound around the plant, being brought out upon the ground to protect the roots. Then burlap is tied abeut the hay, and, lastly, three stakes

AWS | o g AN e 07V | W e I’%o‘ ! L e W N VN B e RN ; Jri 2 N NN WG oIR (N \ ) 22277/ NS SHRUB IN WINTER DRESS. are driven into the ground and tied together over the top. Winds cannot now blow the plant over nor snows crushtit down. A similar result can be obtained by driving a stake down beside the shrub before putting on the hay and burlap, allowing the stake to project up through the covering. This stake holds the wind in check and also holds up the covering so that the snow that falls upon it will not exert a erushing weight.—N. Y. Tribune. :

PERMANENT LABELS.

A Matter of Some Importance to ‘Horticulturists ‘Who Want to Keep Names of Plants. '

The little wooden labels which are used to mark the trees and plants sent out from the nursery are not durable. They are light affairs and generally are fastened on with a piece of iron wire whieh soon rusts off. If it does not rust and break the limb will often grow around it, and may become so injured as to break off. The name is written on with a common lead pencil and the weather of one year will wear it off, and thus the name is lost.

If it is desired to keep the name of the plant on a label attached to it it may be done in this way: Get a heavy six or eight-inch label and rub it over with white lead thinned with the least bit of oil. Then with a soft pencil, and before the lead is dry, write on the name and anything else you may wish. This will last for several years. Now procure some No. 14 or No. 16 copper wire and cut it in pieg¢es a foot or more long. Make a loop on each end, give the middle a twist around the label and hang it around a small branch, ‘hooking the loops together and pinching them up tight. Such a label fastened in this manner will last for years. —Edwin C. Powell, in National Stockman. ;

-~ 2 'l‘rue: ;alue of Manure,

Manure is simply materials that have been softened and decomposed (digested) within the body of the animal. It is of no advantage to apply the raw materials, such as bran and linseed meali, directly to the soil, though they are excellent fertilizers, as their value can be increased by feeding such articles to stock. Manure is made quickly by the animals, though the same thing occurs in the soil by a slower process. All that is not utilized by the animals in some increase of product or for their support comes back to the farmer for ues on the land.—Prairie Farmer.

Undevdrainage for Roads. Farmers know that when land is well underdrained it does mnot expand enough by freezing to do any harm to winter wheat, but that if the land is not properly underdrained the wheat will be killed. The same principle holds true as to roads. If they are not thoroughly underdrained they 'will hreak up and become worthless. If rightly underdrained they may be easily kept in repair. | ;

REBUILDING THE WALLS. International Sunday School Lessom for November 12, 1899—Text, Nehe=minh 4:7-18=Memory Vs. 15-18. [Specially Arranged from Peloubet’s Notés.] GOLDEN TEXT.~-Watch and pray.— Matt. 26: 41. - READ Chapter 4. : TIME.—The summer and early autumn of B. C. 444. Nehemiah left Susa about the first of April, and it would require three or four months to make the journey (Ezra 7: 9). Nehemiah therefore reached Jerusalem about July 1, and the walls were finished in September. PLACE.—Jerusalem and vicinity. o . EXPLANATORY. .Introductory: Nehemiah went up to Jerusalem, starting about the first of April, and reaching the city after three or four months’ travel, some time in July. (Compare 2:1 with Ezra 7:9.) I. The Midnight Tour of Inspection. —=2:ll-18. Three days after his arrival Nehenmriah went cut alone with a few servants in the night to investigate the truth of the reports that had reached him. He had not told to anyone his purpose in coming to Jerusalem. When he had ridden around the city, and taken in the situation, he summoned the leaders of the Jews, told them his plans, and they all agreed heartily to enter upon the work. :

11. The Building of the Wall.——Chap. 3. “The wall was parceled out among 44 working parties” (Rawlinson), some of whom were women, the daughters. of the ruler of the half part of Jerusalem (v. 12), some nobles, others priests, Levites, merchants, the son of a goldsmith and of a perfumer. 111. Working Amid the Bitterest Opposition,—Chap. 4, vs. 1-12, A city was of little value in those days without walls. Enemies on every side could rob or destroy the inhabitants, no treasure was safe. If Jerusalem was to become the power that it once had been and still wished to be, it must be defended. V. 7. “Sanballat,” who appears to be the governor of the city of Samaria.— Adeney. ‘“He wasanative of Heronaim, beyend Jordan (Neh. 2:10), and probably a Moabite chief.”—Kitto. “Tobiah:” A chief of the little trans-Jor-

danic tribe of the “Ammonites,” and probably vizier or chief adviser to Sanbailat. “Arabians:” The wandering Arabs Qf the desert. “The Arab would s¢ent prey in-the project of a warlike expedition.” ‘“Ashododites:” From Ashdod, a Philistine cily near the Mediterranean coast. Thug “all the flotsam and jetsam «f humanity, the ragged Bdges of society swept up by the broom of the war god,” were opposed to the rebuilding of the walls, and “were very wroth.” V. 8. “And conspired all of them together:” . Breathed in unison, as in singing, whispered secretly “to come and to fight against Jerusalem.” They planned to take Nehemiah and the city by surprise, capture and slay the workers, and thus put a stop to the work. V. 10. “And Judah said:” The Jews from outside the city who had teen in closer contact with the heathen element, and were trained. ‘The strength of the bearers of burdens is decayed:” ‘The work was hard, and the carriers had become' worn. The novelty of it had passéd. The higher the wall rose, the harderit was to carry’ materials to the top. The more stone they used, the more difficult it became to get suitable stone from the rubbish.” —Prof. Beecher. V. 12. “The Jews which dwelt by them:” By Sanballat and the other adversaries. *‘They said, unto us ten times:” Repeatedly, again and =gain. They either gave friendly notice to Nehemiah of the proposed attack, or tried to persuade their fellows from the surrounding towmns to hasten home in order to escape the threatened danger. IV. Praying, and Watching, and Working.—Vs. 9, 13¢8. V. 9. “Made our prayer . . . setawatchagainst them,” opposite the places where they were prcposing an attack, the lower; less finished places. V. 13. “Therefore set I in the lowest places behind the wall, and on the higher places:” There is no “and” in the original. Nehemiah means that in the less elevated places, where the wall was least strong by nature, he had his men posted on conspicuous spots within the walls, where they could be seen from a distance, and 'so deterred the enemy from advancing. He drew them “after their families,” that each man might feel that he was fighting for his brethren, sons, etc.— Pulpit Com. V. 14. “And I looked:” He saw the enemy coming. ‘“Roseup:” to take command and give orders. “And said:” e spoke a few words to encourage his men, telling them to remember whom they fought under—namely, the Lord; and what they had tc fight for—namely, their homes, and all they held dear.—Prof. Beecher. V. 16. “Half of my servants:” His personal retainers, trained raen, who had guarded him on his journey. ‘“Habergeons:” Old English for coat of mail, from “halo” (neck) and “bergen” (to protect). “The rulers,” ratber captains, “were behind,” with the warriors, and in the best position to.direct the work and lead the soldiers. V.-17. “They that bear burdens:” The carriers who could steady their load with one hand and hold their weapon in the other. V. 18, “The builders” required both hands in laying the wall, so that they carried their swords by their side, ready to be grasped at a moment’s warning. The work was completed in the brief time of 52 days—on the 25th pf Elul (the last of September). The walls must have been three or four miles long. . '
