Ne Danger q Insects eatisx Twine
Madison Wis, April 10Th 1880.


Madison Wis, April 18th 1880.
Dear, Sir: ...z
Some agents for competing machines
are greatly troubled about the grass
hoppers or crickets eating Irvine bands.
They are in quite a fiutter about it
lest the farmer be badly cheated in
getting a Irvine Binder.
As to insects eating Irvine, Mr.. Wood
including all the General Agents, has
informed himself on that point as
thoroughly as possibleand is convinced
that there will be no trouble on that
score. If he had not been convinced
of it he would not build Irvine Binders
on the scale he is building them. The
conviction is based on the experience
that has already been had with Twine.
Binders in the field. Particular and
special inquiry has been made where
the Irvine Binders have been used
and there has never been q single OBJ
lection raised anywhere on that score.
This we deem to be conclusive evil
dence. While it is true that crickets
will eat garments left in the harvest
field, we are also informed that this
does not apply to cloths that are not
impregnated with sweat or salty mat
ter that it is not the cloths but the
salty matter that the insects are af.
ter. AS proof of this it is said that
crickets never injure harvester can.
vases though they are often left in
machines for days and sometimes
weeks.
You will notice by ~ circular from
Nc COrmick that he promises il Irvine
Binder, next year, hence he is debarred
from objections to Irvine. You will
also notice from his circular that he
is going to attach it to Binders sold
this year and he seems to intimate
that his agents may sell machines this
year on condition of their getting
the Twine attachment another season
us some farmers may want tine c0ndi.
tons stated in the notes. Wee do not
think his plan will work well. Far.
mers are not now in the mood of rely.
ing upon verbal promises, they want
them in writing and in such way
that they will not be obliged to pay
for the machine bought unless the
promise is fulfilled.
AS to insects injuring the string, it
will be easy to put on some preparation
80 that the insects will not touch it.
Yours truly
Fuller & johnson.

is given. The thermometer measures
the force and velocity of the wind. The
pressure of the atmosphere is taken by
means of barometer. The sights are
graduated with the pressure of GER
tain figure, and of course change must
be made if the pressure is greater or
less. Next a hydrometer gives the
amount of moisture in the atmosphere.
The degree of dampness materially af-
fects the resistance offered to the flight
OF a cannon-ball, although to meet one
OF them you would not expect it would
mind dampness or anything else much.
A planchette is used where the object
fred at is out of sight. A telemeter, or
range-finder, is employed to ascertain
the distance of objects fired at, and
finally thermometer gives the tenn
pcrature. as the sight marks that would
b. all right in warm weather are too
cold for firing in cold weather. After
all this is done, we presume it does not
require more than half dozen men to
tell the gunner to fire. 1t must make
them mad, after all their calculations
are made. to find that the ball does not

or, what is more probable, to find that
the enemy has moved off one hundred
miles or so when the figuring is going
on. The French army will have to
provide each cannon with college of

Scottish Free Church has spent $50 900 on the

900 to Lovedale and the fees ofpupils amounted
to over $4,000. The influence of such grand
work cannot be over estimated
