It is possible for careless help to |

open-bottom racks.
From a few pounds to a few bushels |
of grain may be saved every day, dur-

rack, or a canvas over the rack that!
will catch all of the grain that is
shattered out of the heads.
In seasons when the grain shatters
badly, a surprisingly large amount of
grain can be saved in this way.
Value of Coal Ashes.
Coal ashes, it is believed by many
because of their favorable effect
on many soils, possess considerable
fertilizing value. As a matter of fact
coal ashes contain only traces of fer.
tilizing constituents. The good results
from their use is due to their loosen-
