RAILWAY PITCHING APPARATUS
"In time Of peace, prepare for war
means that in this quiet season OF the
wear inquiries should be made and
plans laid for the best and cheapest
way to dispose of next summers i'm
portant work. To very many Ce-
dar county farmers, the handling Of
the immense quantity Of hay is an
important item, and the special atten-
ton of all such is called to Chspman's
Improved Railway Pitching Appara
tus, which unlosds and carries hay,
unthreshed grain, stalks, straw, &c.,
over deep mows, into sheds, barns or
upon the stack. This is the complete
and labor saving pitching machine.
1t will carry the hay from an end
door clear across the deepest NOW,
or from the middle of the barn both
WAYS over the NOW, and drop it just
where it il wanted. 1t is useful in
emptying the barns rs well rs filling
them. Worked by enc horse it has
stacked Is acres of oats in six hours,
rs loads Of barley in houra, and
thrown ton of hay over great besm
of a barn in 2 minutes. 1t is no ex-
pertinent, being now in use by many
farmers in this county, among which
We NAV name II. q. Coe, Henry
Bntcser, Jas. Piatt, David Elijah
and Homer Frink-all of whom stand
ready to certify to its admirable and
economical working. 1t is the rail-
way and travelling car which gives
this pitching apparatus its great su-
periority over all others-it being
readily seen that the ability to lift
the hay direct from the load aud then
carry it without waste of time just
where il is wanted makes the thing
complete. The apparatus consists OF
the large Raymond Graphing Fork,
the Powell Eleva.ing Car, attaching
prapples or rsfter hooks, and the
Post pulley. The fork can be used
without the car for stacking or filling
short bays, or the car may be used IN
conveying any other horse fork.
VIM. Mcneil, near Clarence, is the
sole agent for the sale of this appar-
tus in Cedar County, and will put
them up all ready for use for any
who may desire. Send to, or call on
him for description circulars, or any
further information.

THE CRY SCALES ALL RIGHT.-
Complaint on the part of one or two
Of the many who have occasion to
use the City Scales was so long
continued and persistent that the
council determined to thoroughly
test the matter of their alleged incor-
rectness. They accordingly commu-
nicated with the Victor Scale Co.,
and Mr. Whelock, the ex pert mechan-
ic whose business 1t is to test and
perfect the new scales at the manu-
factory, was sent here on Tuesday.
This gen,lemSn went in the forenoon
and quietly observed the operations
of the Wei2hrnas.er for q couple OF
hours, and in the afternoon went with
the members Of the Council and
thoroughly trie and tes ed the scales
The result is that the expert tells the
council that the scales are certainly
right and true and that the weighing
is apparently done fairly and proper
ly and that they can stand by the
scale with the full assurance that they
are correct and that the manufactur,
ers will back them.
One of the tests applied was the
weighing on Fairbanks scale al

thousand yards the Americans won by a
score of 3O3 against 1919 for the Irish.

nowledge the Americans are superior
