A famine is imminent among
the farmers of South Dakota
owing to the drouth. Their crops
were a complete failure the past
season, and unless aid is rendered
they cannot servive through the
coming winter. They should i'm
igrate to Tennessee and especially
to Hardin County, where the crop
is never total failure, where
enough is always made to sustain
life if not a little to spare; where
the weather is never too hot or
too cold; and where the inhabi-
tants enjoy that greatest of all
earthly boons-good health.

Progress of Inventions since 1916.

In 1886 the present owners Of the Scientific
american newspaper commenced its publica-
IN, and soon after established bureau for
tbs procuring of patents for inventions at
home and in foreign countries. During the
year IS45 there were only 500 patents issued
fiom the U. S. Patent Office, and the total is
sue from the establishment of the Patent Of
fee, up to the end of that year, numbered
only 4,347.
Up to the first of July this year there have
been granted 4o6,4r3 Showing that since
the commencement Of the publication of the
Scientific American there have been issued
from the U. S. Patent Office 400, r6o patents
and about one third more applications have
been made than have been granted, showing
the engenuity of our people to be phenome-
nal, and much greater than ever the enormous
number Of patents issued indicates. Proba-
bly, good many of our readers have had bus
mess. transacted through the Offices of the
Scientific American, in New York or Wash
ington, and are familiar with Mum & Co.'S
mode of doing business, but those who have
not will be interested in knowing something
about this, the Oldest patent soliciting firm i'll
tbs country, probably in the world.
Persons visiting the ofies Of the Scientific
American, SOL Broadway, N. Y, for the first
time will be surprised. on entering the main
Office, to find such an extensive and elegantly
equipped establishment, with its walnut ccun-
tiers, desks, and chairs to correspond, and its
enormouss safes. and such large number Of
draughtsmen, specification writers, and clerks
all busy as bees, reminding one of large
banking or insurance office, with its hundred
employees.
In conversation with one Of the firm, who
had commenced the business of soliciting
patents in connection with the publication Of
the Scientific American, more than forty years
ago. learned that his firm had made appli'
cation for patents for upwards of one hundred
thousand inventors in the United States, anc
several thousands in different foreign coun'
tries, and had fled as many cases in the Pat
ent Office in single month as there wer'
patents issued during the entire first year o
their business career. This gentleman has
seen the Patent Office grow from sapling t
sturdy OAK. and he modestly limited tina
many thought the Scientific American, Will
its large circulation, had performed no meal
share in stimulating inventions and advanc
ing the interests Of the Patent Office. But
