The word “Baby” came into farm machinery with the invention of milk You remei 
separators. At first these were large and heavy machines that required so much said in The I 
power that smaller farmers could not afford them. That led the makers to pro- cut green boi 
duce smaller machines that could, if necessary, be run by a hand crank. The best all has been 
name found for these little machines was “ Baby.” The time came when farmers said either, 
found that there was too much work about running even these small machines. This cut

Many a farmer has had his grain quoted 
“low grade” because it was not properly 
cleaned. It was run through some shaky 
old mill with not half power enough to 
blow out the chaff and foul seed. With 
wheat as low as it is to-day, it is little 
short of criminal for a farmer to take 
the lowest price just because he will not

The Aspinwall Potato Cutter. A Buckeye Mower. 
Cutting potatoes is hard and tedious If it were necessary for us to tell the 
work ; it ranks with spreading manure merits of the “ Buckeye” goods, we could 
and cutting corn among the disagreeable easily fill a column and yet not tell it 
jobs of the farm. For every farm job, all. When a farmer buys a mowing or

brought in play. Manure spreading, about at the various makes and decides

to eat them well they must be cut fine 
and softened. The silo does this very 
thing for corn stalks, but all farmers 
cannot have a silo. In fact, Mr. Fran¬ 
cisco, the “ Certified Milk” man told us 
recently that he expects to give up his 
silos, lie will chop up the dry stalks 
and straw and thoroughly soften them 
by steaming. In this way he expects to 
get all the feeding value, with none of 
the objectionable features of ensilage. 
The premium we herewith offer will en¬ 
able you to do this very thing. Send to 
the Bovee Harvesting Machine Co., Tama, 
Iowa, and see how this machine works. 
Suppose it saves you the feeding of five 
tons of hay this year. Won’t that give 
you good wages for your canvassing?

THE MRS. VAN DTJZEN CAKE MOULDS. 
Never grease these moulds, and thereby avoid objectionable tastes. TLo remove 
the cake, cut it loose from the sides, then slip a knife blade through the openings 
at the sides and cut the cake loose at the bottom. You can invert the cake to cool 
good test of its popularity. Every farm 
family with boys and girls growing up 
ought to have a lawn mower. A well- 
kept lawn in front of your house will 
improve the appearance of your place 
just as a clean shave will make you more 
presentable. A lawn mower is as much 
of an improvement over the scythe for 
keeping the lawn trim as a razor is 
over a sharp case knife for shaving. 
This mower is made by the Chadborn & 
Coldwell Manufacturing Co., Newburgh, 
N. Y. We offer it for the first club of 12 
new yearly subscriptions.
