Thousands of dollars are wasted
annually in farm machinery by no
gleet on lite part of fanners to take
care of their implements. Many aU
low their machinery to .stand out in
open fields all winter long, exposed to
the severe storms of snow, ruin and
hail, rusting the iron work, rotting
the woodwork and causing a general
decay all around. It is the very es
sence of extravagance for farmers to
buy expensive machinery and then
not to take care of it. A few dollars
spent for lumber in making sheds in
which to house the implements used
on -a farm would be money well in
vested. No article should be exempt
Irom careful attention in this respect
a plow or harrow should be looked
•after the same as the most expensive
.piece of farm machinery.—Water

Town Killer*.
It takes the money, brains, and
years of hard and anxious labor of self
sacrifice of some men to organize,
build and create a town. The man
who is willing to take advantage of
their efforts without contributing his
share toward the machinery of prog
ress, is a consummate hog, a useless
citizen, and a miserable burden upon
the body jtolitic. They lie to the as
sessor to avoid carrying their share of
public burdens, slink away from sub
scription papers for public improve
ment. dodge every public responsibil
ity, never pay a cent toward a news
paper, or any other public institution
if they can dodge it. They are so
ready to profit by the energy of, enter
prise or money of others, that they
gem-rally pay their private debts only
so long as it is for their own selfish
interest to do so. Men of this stamp
exist, but too many of them will kill
any town outright, and it won't take
long, either.—Vermillion Republican.

About fifty loads of wheat from the
neighborhood of Milbank were taken
over to Uary, on the Chicago & North
western, this week. On their return
they claim no better prices than on
this road, but a higher grade lor the
same quality of wheat. There seems
