The Bellaire Independent says: In o
casual conversation with Mr.. John K.
Nier, President Of the Nailer's Associa-
ton, We learn that there Is now about
$500 nail machines In the territory en-
braced in the Western Nail Association.
0tthese he states that less than 100 are In
operation by feeders, and that the yield
from the 100 Is less than one.iourth what
itwas under the old rule. For instance,
when the nailers attended the machines,
keeping them in repair and grinding, and
the feeders fed, 100 machines would pro-
duce from 1000 TO ], 200 kegs, whereas
now 100 machines in the hands OF feeders
produce from $50 to 800 kegs in the same
length Of time. He regards the start as 9
signal failure, and says that the competent
feeders do not want the price cut down,
Because II affects all capable men who
have faith in their merit securing them
positions, while come inferior chapsi want
TO secure a job whenever they can. Mr..
Wier thinks this stop is made, just like
many other stops when the scale Il
