Page Threa CARE OF FARM IMPLEMENTS - -SAVES MANY REPAIR BILLS Plow, Basic Tillage Tool, Entitled to Proper Care When Not in Use Should Be Stored in Dry Place Some Simple Rules for Preventing Deterioration. In this day of complicated ma- on the wooden parts, should be re chinery most farmers probably have newed fresuently. little thought to the care of so sim- , Get The Mowr Under Shelter pie an implement as a plow. But i - Mowers, more generally' than more effort has been expended in the 1 low process of developing this seem- i ingly simple tool than in any other impliment on the farm. It is the basic tillage tool, the fundamental farm implement, and it is richly en titled to be properly cared for when not in use. Should Be Stored In Dry Place, When laid by, say the implement experts, the. plow should, if possible, be stored in a dry place, away from contact with the ground. In any case, the bright parts should always be coated with grease to prevent rust. Once the mold board and share have become pitted with rust, an ef ficient job of plowing can not be done until the corroded parts again have acquired a polish by use. The Unitd States Department of Agriculture, of course, does not stop with the plow in its admonition in this regard. , , Harrows, ateo relatively simple but tremendously important implements, 1 til, X " ----------- t J 1 Leaving Implements to the Mercy of the Weather Cost Money. are, next to the plows, most gener- frequently makes this inconvenient, ally neglected. Many farmers who but nothing should be allowed to in would not neglect an expensive har- terfere with getting all machinery vesting machine, say the experts, are greased, and, if possible, under cover careless as to harrows and other im- before the beginning of the winter, pliments of this type. But these, al- Then, as early in the winter as you so, represent capital invested, and a can find time for it, go over every large return iS possible if they are piece and see what repairs are need properly cared for at the end of the ed. If new parts have to be ordered season. I order them at once. A great deal If narrows are stored under a shed, of valuable time is lost every spring the teeth should be. supported bv blocks or boards, so that they will not become embedded in the ground. All accumulations of earth and trash should be removed. This applies es- ( pecially to wooden-frame harrows. The earthy accumulations retain moisture and accelerate decay. When the wooden parts have dried out sum- ciently they should be painted, to prevent season cnecKing ana splitt ing. As the harrow works in wet earth and close to the ground, de terioration is rapid once checking has started. If the disk harrow is stored in a hed or other floorless building, the disk gangs should be run upon boards so the disks will not become embedded in the srround. Wheather , . . . . . , housed or not, the implement should , . ,, , , m 1 wie 111101 maiiuii nicy luiiiaui 111 uut- be carefully cleaned of all accumu- 1 implements and machines lations of soil, and the disks should. , ... .... be. greased with heavy grease to pre- "the best possible condition for vent rust. The paint, particularly I next crop season. AMONG FIRST ON SCENE REDV CROSS "Among the firs on the scene, -were doctors and nurses of the Ameri can Red Cross," read a news paper report of the second bomb explos ion in Wall street. The promptness of the Red Cross on that ocasion, resulting in the saving of numbers of lives, calls at tention to the fact that for thirty nine years the Red Cross has been "among the first on the scene" at all manner of disasters. Part of the charter duty of the American Red Cross is to carry on a system of national and internation al relief, to apply the same in qmiti gating the suffering caused by pes tilence, famine, fire, floods and other great national calamities. During the 39 years since the Am erican Red Cross was organized, it has given relief in 250 cases of this kind, and directed the expenditure of more than $13,000,000. Among the disasters are such well remembered events as the Charleston tion, the Armenian Massacres, the yellow fever epidemic, the Galveston storm, the San Francicco fire, chol era in Italy, the Guatemala earth quake which occured in the very midst of the war. It is rather remarkable that in the very midst of the war, when the greatest demands were being made unon the Red Cross, its organization for Disaster and Relief was so ef ficient that it was able to take care of several great disasters and oversee the disbursing of (more than $8,000,- 000. During the year ending" June 30, 1920, there was an average ol four great disasters montn in tne un ited States, to say nothing of the terrible reign of pestilence and epi demic oversews. V ,On hundred and fifty communities in the United States : spread over twenty seven states were given re lief.. The most destructive of these disasters was the, tidal wave at Cor pus Christi, Texas. , There were also tornadoes in ten different states. , ; " , In these calamities eight hundred and fifty people were killed, fifteen i hundred were injured, thirteen thou sand families were made dependent plows and harrows, are put under shelter, but many of them spend the j winter at the edge of the meadow I where the last cutting of hay was I made, and in most cases they are not properly greased, even when sel tered. Get die mower under shelter ! if possible. In any case", clean the knife bar, wipe it with a greasy rag, and store in dry place. Place a block of wood or other support under the mid-point of the tongue, so that it will not acquire a permanent sag. If the mower is stored witn tne cut ter bar in avertical position, place a block of wood under the shoe to take the weight off the frame. All accumulations of vegetable matter and dirt should be removed and all bearings and other bright parts of the machine oiled or greased. Much the same rule applies to reapers and binders. The time to care for each im pie- ment is when its work is finished, Pressure of other work, however, waiting for repair parts to arrive from the city. The best possible us;' should be made of such housimr places as is available, and grease and paint should be used without stint. Any farm implement with bearings and bright parts well protecetd with eavy grease is better off out in the weather than standing in a shed without any protection by -grease or oil. The United States Department of Agriculture has two bulletins Far mers' Bulletin 946 and Farmer's Bul letin 947 devoted to the repair and adjustment of farm implements. With all implements safely shelter ed for the winter, you have time to i u..nn4.:n nA n ...... wine iui uucae uuiivrinia uu w uoc L. t: 4.1 v; ; f and property to the value, of one billion dollars was destroyed. In relieving the condition of the homeless and caring for the dead and wounded, a little more thap one mil lion dollars was expended, not in cluding -emergency supplies. To disaster sufferers in the Un ited States during' the year the Am erican Red Cross sent one hundred and twenty thousand dollars worth of supplies, one hundred and ten Red Cross nurses, and seven special relief trains. To mee.t the needs of the stricken the organization set ur ten relief stations operated thirty food canteens and twenty-eight em ergency hospitals. One hundred anr" twenty-five different Red Cross chap ters took part in the relief work. Such is the record for the pas! year. OFFICIAL VOTE it- c v r Congress Senate Legislat'r Treasurer!

The entire forenoon was token up with sunday school work. At 10:30 those present were classified and a model sunday school was conducted and it will be gratifying to know :hat so many sunday school scholars were present until it was impossi ble to have more than one third of he class in the church. These class 's were taught by teachers from :he Marion sunday schools. Among those who instructed were, Mrs. B. B. Havs, Mrs. E. F. Hickman Mr. E. T. Hickman and Mr. E. D. Conley if Hudson. Mr W B Cobb or Mt. Mrs. J. P. Bush and Mr. R. B. Bush if New Collins. This was the most interesting sunday school ever held an the Hudson circuit. After the sunday school period the ri-.K. "iv and alsrge ;f the cla.vse-. ie-:isembied im,mi,p - ir il church where a session of t'i convention was held. At this session the main points discussed v. to how to increase interest and attendance in our sunday schhool. These ques tions were freely discussed by the superinentendants of the different churches. Many valuable suggesti ons were gotten from this discus sion. After this Mrs. B. B. Hayes of Hudson and Miss Elizabeth Bush of New Collin, gave two very import ant readings relating to the sunday school work. This brought the bus iness part of the day to a close. At 1 o'clock we adjourned for a pic nic. Well, you should have seen the full baskets brought by the people from the different churches. It was all spread out on tbe temporary table i made of benches. Every one pres ! ent ate to the full and many frag : ments were taken up. I I About 3:30 the crowd assembled ! in the church again where Rev. Mc Gruder Tuttle preached a most won derful sermon. It was decided to have the next (convention with the Hudson Method ist church. Let us all work to intake this one ; of the most beneficial meetings. May we again thank the churches n the Hudson Circuit for their splendid ; cooperation. i E. I). Conlay, President and Miss I Elizabeth Bush, Secretary. NEW WOMAN MEMBER OF CON GRESS FOUGHT SUFFRAGE Mrs. Alice M. Robertson, who has been elected to Congress from the Second Oklahoma District, de feating the vetran Democratic in cumbent, Will Hastings' is one of ! the pioneers of the State. As a child she came to Oklahoma sixty years ago in an ox-drawn pra irie schooner. Her father was a mis sionary and taught the gospel of the white man to the uncivilized tribes in Indian territory until his death. Mrs. Roberts taught in the Indian schools until about 1900, opening a boarding school for Creek Indian girls first and later starting a school at Muskogee for girls of the five civ ilized tribes. She was appointed Postmaster at Muskogee in 1912 by President Roosevelt, being the first woman to take charge of a first class Post Of fice in the United States. Of late she has been running a cafeteria in Muskogee. It was her practice dur ing me war never to cnarge a uni formed soldier or a sailor for a meal. Mrs. Robertson was until early in the year President of the antisuf frage association of Oklahoma. She had no political experience prior to making her announcement for Con gress last spring. Her entrance in to politics was decided upon against the advice of warm friends, the task of defeating one of Oklahoma's old- Women Made Young Eright eyes, a clear skin and a body Full of youth and health may he yours if you will keep your system n order by regularly taking GOLD MEDAL Th world's standard remedy for kidney, liver, bladder and uric acid troubles, the jnemies of life pud looks.
