Tl1e small steel plate that is rivet- ed to the guard at the point where the knife edge performs the scissor movement should be kept sharp or at least` not permitted to wear round. These plates, commonly known as ledger plates, become dull with use,` a condition that greatly reduces the etclency of the mower and increases the draft. A mower with dull or rounded ledger plates will stick In heavy cutting or dump grass. A sharp knife and sharp edged ledger plates means light draft for the team and clean, free cutting of the crop.

If the. mower sticks at every mouse-nest or tuft of grass, the place to look for the trouble is in the dull knife, the ledger plates, the worn guards, or the keepers that hold the knife down in place. With the new mower it will be noted that the cut- ting edges are sharp, that there is but little play for the knife other than as intended. In the past too lit- tle attention has been given to keep- ing the ledger plates sharp. With these dull, no matter how good the knife is. tough material will be drawn beneath the kniie instead of being cut, forcing the blade up against the guard causing wear that gives a loose tting knife, poor work and greatly increased draft. ` \\'hy the New Mower Cuts Best.

This experience is largely due to the fact that too little attention is paid to the parts that are responsible for the cutting. The wear on the section points of the mower knife is greatest near the point. This wear, together with the grinding necessary to keep the knife sharp, changes the shape of the section con- siderably, and in such a way as we reduce its efficiency as a cutting im- plement. The man doing the grind- ing should endeavor to keep the or- iginal shape of the section in so far as possible. Many of the emery grinders used in sharpening mower knifes grind away the points of the section to a serious extent without doing very much sharpening. A spe- cially shaped emery or carborundum stone or file should be used and the work done in the farm shop. A spare knife should always be at hand in the eld. Go Over the Machine Daily.

Good returns are obtained ,from keeping bees in Canada, tl1e condi- tions in many parts oi` the country being particularly favorable [or honey production. Yet much uncer- tainty exists, and misconceptions have arisen as to the returns to be expected. One sometimes hears that a colony of bees has produced in one season four or ve hundred pounds of honey. Such yields, however, are exceptional, and are the result of a combination of fortunate circum- stances, abundant owers of alsike and white clover, reweed. or other important honey plants, a. particular- ly industrious colony, a. well trained and experienced beekeeper, and. above all, favorable weather. They cannot be obtained from every hive, nor can they be repeated year after year. Somtimes a year of failure fol- lows a. year of plenty. To get reiinhin nrnv-an H In nnnnn, iuws u. year OI plenty. To get reliable gures it is neces- sary to average the returns from the colonies In the apiary for 9. number of years. The latest gures show that the average annual yield of honey has varied from 18 pounds per colony in the least protable npiary to 138 pounds per colony in the most pro- table npiury. The average annual production for all the npieries was 63 pounds per colony, which is high enough to make a satisfactory prot. `these ilgures indicate the importance of good nianngement. the returns of only 18 pounds having been due to inexperience.
