Machinery requires suitable housing an the year round, if the overhead is to be kept in check, al- though often in the exigencies o? farming this is not always an easy matter. In the absence of proper protection from the weather, rust and decay play havoc with the various parts, and careful farmers make It a rule to get their machines under cover as soon as possible. TJhese farmers know that stabling for mach- inery is as necessary as for the live- stock. Besides building inexpensive feut efficient sheds for their mach- ines, they make it a rule to inspect each machine every day to see that the bearings have been properly oiled, that the nuts are tight, and the working parts are in alignment and working smoothly. These precautions have saved money, prevented loss through dela.v and obviated exasperation and worry, tlhe present-day machine- worked farm really requires to be equipped with a forge, an anvil, a stock of dies a drill, a tool grinder, and sets of hammers, wrenches, pun- ches and chisels, not to mention a supply of stock repairs for replace- ment of parts.
