A USEFUL INVENTION The Eureka
Grain Separator, of which we made brief
mention week ago, has received close
examination from a large number of our
farmers during the past week. One of the
largest of these tanning mills was on exhi-
bition at L. L. Smiths feed store, on Fourth
street, and it was submitted to the severest
b tests, and no time did it fail to do all that
is claimed for it. From seed wheat the rye,
oats, cheat, grass seed and alldirt and filth
was removed, and nothing but the plump
est and best grains deposited at the tail Of
the mill. The refuse was laid where 1t
could easily be gathered and run through
the separator for saving what broken or
shrunken kernels of wheat it might be de-
sirable to save. 1t is our deliberate opin-
ion, founded on careful and thorough ex-
animation, that it viii be impossible to
raise foul grain on farm W here this sep
orator is used. Nothing at all equaling it
has ever before been offered to our farmers

Experimenting.

IIIIIDUfSUfti
To-day another test of the homogeneous
steel boiler was made at the Diamond Steel
Works, i'm the presence of Benz. Crawford,
special agent of the United States Treasury
Department, and delegation of the Penn
sylvania railway officers. The pressure,
of 7s0 pounds to the square inch was OBJ
tanned, but owing to the starting of rivets
and opening of seams, the experiment
could not be continued. The steel gives
no evidence of breaking, even with several
hundred pounds additional pressure to the
square inch.
