 Enonnoui tumi are ipent annually by the fartnen of Canada for implementi 
 which, due to neglect, lait on the average only half an long a* they would if given 
 proper care. To equip an average farm with machinery costi about 11,000. Imple- 
 ments subjected to the deteriorating effectn of the wcwther «nd the miimanagcment 
 of the owner or operator will not do good work for more than five yean. Thu» there 
 is neceatary an expenditure of lomething like li.CXK) for each period of ten yeors. 
 
 The care of farm implements may be readily divided into five partu, i<uch of 
 which plays an important part in checking «r eliminating one of the many leaks 
 of the farm. 
 
 A comparatively cheap shelter will nerve to protect the machine*; one sufficiently 
 roomy can be built for approximately" $400; which should be considerwl ns money 
 invested, for it will realize a good dividend. 
 
 The accompanying plan will meet the needs of the average farmer. It is capable 
 of many modifications, and a careful study of the plan will be helpful to those who 
 intend to build. Of course, the building can be made any length desired. 
 
 PLAN. 
 
 The building is 26 by 47 feet outside measurements. Concrete piers, 12 inches 
 square, spaced at frequent intervals, support a 6 by »-inch sill composed of two 3 by 
 6-inch pieces bolted to the piers. On this sill are plac-ed 2 by 6-inch studs, which 
 support a 4 by 6-inch plate composed of two 2 by 6-inch pieces. These studs are 
 covered with 1-inch T. and O. boarding. The rafters are 2 by 8 inches at 24-inch 
 centres and are covered with 1-inch sheeting ond good'cedar shingles, laid four and 
 one-half inches to the weather. The roof is strengthened by trusses spaced about 
 ten feet apart. These trusses consist of two 2 by 10 pieces, startiii^- from each side 
 of a rafter and bolted together at the centre with a 2-inch piece between them. Stock 
 windows opening .1 feet by 5 feet are used. The sliding doors, which are built of 
 V-joint boarding with battens on the back, arc equipped with hangers and track. The 
 centre door slides on the inside and the others on the outside.

 Before houtinir any machine it ii adviiable t" apply a thick coatinf of mineral 
 lubricant to all poliahed part* to prevent ruKt. A kiiikK' winter n< rustinir may injure 
 an implement more than one M>aBon in iteady op«-ration. It ii enpi-oially important 
 that the bright iurfaT of plouifh mould Ix'ard* be maintained at nil tinion. The nimlt 
 it a better quality of work done by that plnuich and the con»ervinK of enemy "f both 
 man and home. Binder canvaiea should be removed, but should not be folded as is 
 commonly practised. The folded eanvasr* provide ideal quarters for mice, which cause 
 much damage during the winter. A better plan is to hang the canvases in the shed 
 and thus avoid injury.
