CARE OF WOOD-WORKING SAWS. There is a great variety of opinions in regard to the care of the small saws generally used in the different departments of wood-working.

I will admit at the start that there are more than one of several ways which may be right, owing to differing con- ditions, but there are several ways which I have seen that are wrong under all conditions. These saws when new were well shaped so far as the teeth were concerned, and cut easily and smoothly, but before six months they were in a shape to surprise one used to well-fitted saws.
