Rid of Galls 
Keep your horses’ 
shoulders sound so 
that they can do 
more work. 
Gall Cure Collars 
prevent and cure galls. They have 
a special curled hair pad which 
cushions the draft at the shoulder. 
Your horse will stay well and pull 
his hardest always. 
It will pay you to look into this curled hair pad 
feature. The hair is stitched to a canvas backing 
and can't ridge up. It makes a wonderfully soft 
and springy cushion for your horse’s shoulder— 
one that doesn't sour or sweat the horse. 
HONEST WEAR Collars have all the good 
features and are well-made so that they last longer 
than most horse Collars. You can’t lose when 
you buy HONEST WEAR.

Cleaning Rusted Pipe. 
C AN you tell me what to do with a gal- 
vahized pipe, i^-inch, about 30 rods 
' long, that has been in the ground about 
three years and is rusted so that it just 
j runs a little small stream? Is there any¬ 
thing I can put in to cut rust out? 
Tully. N. Y. A. P. 
From the description given I am led to 
think that this pipe is used to carry- 
water from a spring or some other .source 
of water supply, and flows continuously. 
If this is the case the deposit spoken of 
is probably from the water itself rather 
than rust on the pipe. Pipes used under 
this condition quite commonly “fur up” 
inside with a soft feathery, yellow sub¬ 
stance, and have to be cleaned in order 
to get a flow of water, for usually when 
a pipe is used in this way there is not 
sufficient “head” or pressure on the 
water to cause it to flow fast enough to 
keep this deposit fi’om forming. It is a 
mistake to use so small a pipe for this 
purpose. 
The method usually employed by 
plumbers is to run a wire through the 
pipe, and by sawing it back and forth 
and twisting it around, dislodge the ma¬ 
terial from the sides of the pipe. A force 
pump is then connected to one end of 
the pipe and water forced through under 
pressure, cleaning the loosened material 
out. A good stiff wire, about No. 12, 
should be used, and if there are no 
elbows it can be shoved the whole length 
of the pipe. If an elbow or other ob¬ 
struction prevents this, push the wire 
in as far as it will g g, mark the point, 
and then after withdrawing the wire it 
can be laid along the surface of the 
ground over the pipe showing where the 
obstruction is. The earth can be dug 
away at this point and the pipe cut or 
taken apart and the wire pushed in 
again, cleaning another section. After 
cleaning the pipe can be repaired with 
a coupling or union. 
Perhaps when installing this pipe a 
“bur” might have been left on the end 
of a length of pipe where it was cut off, 
or white lead or other “dope” placed on 
the inside of the elbow or couplings 
rather than on the male thread of the 
pipe. This is almost sure to result in 
a thin “fin” of lead inside the coupling 
and in a pipe as small as this a deposit 
soon forms there which checks the flow 
of water to a great extent. For forcing 
the pipe out after cleaning, an ordinary 
barrel or small tank sprayer can be 
used. The writer has used such a pump 
to force pipes with by removing the 
spray nozzle and boring out a spool so 
that the brass coupling on the hose could 
be turned into it. The spool was then 
whittled to fit the pipe and forced into 
place. This may not fit the particular 
case mentioned, but no doubt an adapta¬ 
tion of it will suggest itself. One has to 
resort to all sorts of devices in a pinch. 
Even a ramrod affair, wound with rags 
and twine to form a watertight plunger 
for a short section of pipe might be 
used if nothing else is available. There 
may be some chemical that could be 
used to remove this deposit, but none is 
known to the writer that could be used 
successfully and economically. Your 
local druggist might be able to tell you 
about this. Robert h. smith.

Pumping Water to Barn. 
O N page 09 A. C. L. asks advice re¬ 
garding getting water to his barn, the 
water being 1,200 feet from his barn, 
and the rise to the top of his cistern 00 
feet, which he wishes to do with a pump 
placed at his barn. Robert II. Smith has 
given a very complete reply with a “no” 
at the end, and does not suggest any 
other way to get this water. If A. C. L. 
will locate a pump at his water supply, 
or anywhere nearer his barn not over 25 
feet higher than liis water supply, he can 
force the water to his barn with a small 
engine, a 1*4 horsepower is guaranteed 
to raise water 150 feet. Near my farm 
is a farm doing this with a windmill. 
The spring is about 100 rods distance and 
quite an upgrade to the barn; at first 
the windmill was at the barn and drew 
the water, but afterward the mill was 
placed over the spring and forced the 
water to the barn. The advantage I be¬ 
lieve is claimed to be in case of a leak 
in the pipe it gave less trouble where it 
was forced through the pipe. This pipe 
is one-inch. w. h.

End All 
Power Troubles! 
W E have said this 
before. We say 
it again:—“Power trou¬ 
bles are ended when a 
‘Peerless’ Engine is 
hitched to your machinery!” 
And all the thousands of 
Peerless Engines in service 
prove this claim. Every 
user of 
Peerless Traction Engines 
knows that this claim is true. Peerless 
Engines are reliable, consistent perform¬ 
ers. The high pressure boiler assures 
more economy and the high speed engine 
transmits more of the power to belt or trafc- 
tion wheels, making it unequalled as a 
general purpose engine. They are the only 
steam traction engines having fire box 
boilers that retain the water on crown 
sheet when going down hill and keep the 
front end of tubes covered when going up 
hill. 
Built in both single and double cylinder 
types. Sizes suitable for all purposes. 
Use either wood or coal as fuel. Furnish 
immense power and give longest service.
