The successful management of a mod
ern farm lareglv depends up on the effi-
eiency of the equipment with which the
work i? performed, specialists of the
United State? Department of Agricul-
ture point out.
The equipment of the average farm
can be divided into about three more
or !es? distinct classes, as follows: Tirst
and most important, machinery, wagons
and all applices used in tlte more im-
portant farming operations; second,
utensils and machinery used in connec-
tion with the dairy, garden tools, butch-
ering outfit, and the numerous ?ntall
things for general use about the place;
third, the tools, materials, and facilities
for keeping the first two classes of
equipment in good working order.
In order to secure the greatest effi-
ciency, all implements and machinery
should be properly housed when not in
actual service, so a? to be in good work-
ing condition when required for use.
