TEAM TO PLAY

dates in that par: of the country. He
has his ee on two pitchers, a catch

whom he hopes to secure for the Oe.

ler. Morehcad. Jack Murray and
Knight himself, there Is a great fu- j
ture in store for the team.
KniKbt talked with Dr. II M Rowe
and W I). Brown at the Weber club
today and it was decided to hae the

on April 1 All coneernod b.llev
that It will hp a gcod thing to play
the practice came as the fans will be
ome interested and the team be in
fine form for the openine of the sea

W. I Brown came back with en
thusiastic reports of the other teams
in the league and states that the out

up the subject of building tbe office'

In compliance wiih the ruling made at

President E C. Mulrone secured
the passage of a law establishing a

An amendment to the law relating to

THRESHING GRAIN
WITHOUT REAPING
Grain is hereafter not to be reaped,
but will be threshed in the field as it
stands, saving the farmer something
like $200,000 000 a year. This Is the
claim of Frank Morse, who describes
Id the Technical World Magazine
(Chicago, March i the recent invention
of a Kansan. Curtis C. Baldwin The
machine has been used for three suc
cessive harvests, but proved its util
ity and practicability most conclu
sively lat fall when it threshed from
25 to 30 acres of standing grain In
a 10 hour day.
The inventor contends that it will
reduce the cost of the harvest from
14 cents to two cents a bushel. We
read :
The principle of the new Btyle
thresher is simple. I strong blast of
air from a revohlng fan Is blown
against the standing grain and forces
It against a toothed cylinder which
threshes off the grain, depositing it
in a trough, from which it is elevat
ed by an auger to another toothed
cylinder, which rethreshes it. The
, chaff is blown out and the clean
, grain falls into a sack, or ma) lit
carried through a tube to a wag
' on driven alongside Four horses puil
i the thresher over the field, while a
small gasoline engine operates the
I machine Only two men are requir
ed, one to drive the horses and the
: other to tie the sacks of threshed
grain and look after the engine.
"Not the least advantage claimed fori
the new machine Is that it dispenses
with the ever present need of farm
bands at the harvest season, when
grain rots in the field because of the
j utttc r impossibility of getting men
when most they are needed Every i
year an urgent cry for harvest hands
tomes out of Kansas, the Dakotas and '
Minnesota, to be answered in large1
part by college students. But no mat
; ter how urgent the call, it is impos- .
Bible to get enough men. and fields of!
; grain stand waiting the thresh) H
when millions of dollars' worth of
damage may be done by the elements'
! at any moment. The new style
thresher makes it possible for Io n
, horses and two men to harvest a 160
1 acre oat field in a week
"What this means to the farm
wif can hardly be overestimated. It;
means an end to rhe big meals over
the hot stove, where she is compelled
to tort, from early morn until late ar
night, to JVd the hungry horde of)
I harvest-hands who shove food into i
their mouths as they would grain into :
i a hopper.
"The census e:prr(s show that
more than a billion and a half bush
els of wheat and oats are produced
in the United States ever year. The
present cost of threshing and sacking
is approximately fourteen cents a
bushel which makes the present har-
I est fee aboul $210,000,000. Mr. Bald
win claims that his machine reduces
the price per bushel from fourteen
cents to two fpnts. which would re
duce the threshing tariff to aboul
$30,000,900, an annual saving of a
fabulous fortune ranging from a sixth
t i a quarter of a billion dollars evcr
yar The savins in the weir and
tear on (he farm-wife and in the
consumption of food by the hungry
harvest -hands can hardly be comput
ed, but jl is a considerable item, as
evrvbody knows who has ovpr ern
a horde of threshers sweep down up
oi. a well-ladn table, 111: soventeen-year-old
locusts on a field of tender
green sprouts
"With the ordinary thresher, as
well as my own the threshing Is don
principally at the cylinder, -ros Mr
Bi Idwln 'With the ordinary machine
tt is estimated that thp grain passes
Ui-. cylinder at the rate of a mile a
ruintlte; with mv machine the grain
-a.'8s the rviinder as fast as horsei
can walk, or about three and one-half
m'les an hour You can see that with
tnj machine the cylinder strikes ih
lirads ?eventpen times whpre the or
dinary machine onb strikes theoi
once. I only use the inlle-a-mlnute
cylinder as a retbresblng dev Ice. T
use the same principle tbat is used
iu Mowing he-iw corn fodder into a
high silo and almost the same princl
ple thai Is tsed In drawing sand from
'.he river and in drawing cotton from
l a wagon "
'The saving to the grain-farmer
consists not oak in dispensing with
the mam high -waged threshers, but
D In tho time formerly lost by cut
ting Dip grain hauling it to the stack
and then hauling the threshed straw
back to the land where as a rule it
i ultra atel: burned up. Mr. Baldwin
figures that it is beBt to take the
I thresher to tho field, rather than to
take the field to the thresher Besides
ilip saving i tinip and labor, there
; la the not inconsidprable element of
ih utilization of the straw. Tests
ohow that straw Is worth more on the
land as fertilizer than in any other
wav In addition, the wasfe of lan. I

the standing grain to be plowed
under will give the land the fertilizer
of which it often sun. Is sadly In
