passed on with the exception Of
those in California. There a decided
disagreement manifested itself, so the
items were skipped temporarily. In the
gull no changes were made, except that
the item for Tampa bay, increased by the
Senate TO $4,000 was reduced in the con-
ference TO $4,000. The rivers were then
taken up and good progress made rs far rs
the Monongahela and Ohio projects, when
another serious disagreement appeared.
Tho conference having lasted long time,
an adjournment till Monday was taken,
when an effort will be made TO come to an
understanding.

Our reporter was shown through
the ginning establishment of J.. NJ.
Smith last Tuesday afternoon and his
attention was called especially to the
new Thomas direct steam press in OPP.
Grafton here for the first time this sea-
son. Unquestionably it is the best bal
ing press in the market, inexpensive to
operate, and reliable and rapid in its
work. Its capacity is 80 bales per day,
but % Is the greatest number put up in
a single day owing to the fact that the
two gin stands In operation are taxed
to their utmost to furnish the lint for
the number mentioned. The press has
put up about 700 bales 80 far this season.
There are but two other presses like
this one In the county, one at M. X.
Shinn's and the other at Appleton.
