THE IMPROVEMENT.
1t Has Extended from tho Banks to
the Mills.

1t Has Extended from tho Banks to
the Mills.
R. G.. Dun & Co.'s Review of
Trade for the week ending Sept. 8,
says:
Improvement has extended from
the banks to the mills. The condi>
ton of great industries has distinctly
mended, though still seriously de.
pressed. More important by far than
any rise in stocks is the fact tina,
more works have resumed during the
past week than have stopped opera
ton. SO that the producing force Of
the country, after months Of constant
decline, has begun to increase. Dis
patches mention 26 textile aud 30
metal works which have resumed,
some only with part force, while 25
textile and 8 iron works have stopped.
Il is expected that most of the Fall
River mills will start soon, the hands
asserting to reduced wages. The
money markets are more healthy, the
premium on currency has almost van>
ished, the embarrxssments in domes.
tic exchanges have well nigh disap.
peared. an while very little money is
vet available for commercial or indus
trial loans, there is some relief in that
respect also."

TEMPTING OFFER.

To induce people to keep track of their bright
ideas and see what there is in them the Press
Claims Company has resolved to offer prize,
To the person who submits to 1t
the simplest and most promising
invention, from commercial point
of view, the company will give
twenty five hundred dollars, cash,
in addition to retunding the fees
for securing the patent.
1t will also advertise the inveD-
ton free of charge.
This offer is subject to the following cOndit-
ions:
Every competitor must obtain patent for
his invention through the company. He must
first apply for preliminary search. the cost OF
which will be five dollars. should this search
show his invention to be unpatentable, he can
withdraw without further expense, Otherwise
he will be expected to complete his application
and take out patent in the regular way The
total expense, including Government and Blu
reau fees, will be seventy dollars. For this,
whether he secures the prize or not, the invent
or will have patent that ought to be a valua-
Bile property to him The prize will be award
ed by jury consisting Of three reputable pat.
ent attorneys OF Washington. Intending com
petitors should fill out the following blank
and forward it with their applications;

Cholera Among Chinch Bugs.

Mr.. John Alt of Norborne, Mo-,
writes: 81 beg leave to ask of the
Farm and Garden anything that
may be known of cholera in chinch
bugs? Is there any virtue in it?
If so, where can l get deceased
bugs? A short sketch on this sub
ject would take in this locality, as
the bugs are getting very thick, and
if left unchecked will do much
damage"
The so-called discovery of sick
ness among chinch bugs is due not
to Prof. Snow of Kansas, but to
Prof. Otto Lugger of Minnesota Ex-
pertinent Station. l think cholera
is misnomer, and is only given
because the disease is claimed to be
contagious. If one can send sick
bugs any distance the sickness
must, of course, be a slow process of
killing. / have never seen it tried,
and consequently have no personal
experience. Entomologists claim
that it is effcacious, and sick bugs
are freely sent. The season now is
so far advanced that only perhaps
in Northern Kansas or in Minneso-
to the bugs may still be ravaging
the wheat fields. After that they
will take barley or oats, but to the
latter they prefer corn. They will
use up about Is rows on the side
where they enter the field, and
thousands may be found on a
single stalk Of corn. Like many of
our insect pests they were intro
duced from abroad. My first ex-
perience with them was in 1851,
when | raised the German (Zitter)
quaking grass. They do most
damage to spring wheat.

NO BLANKS IN THIS CONTEST

This Is a competition of rather an unusual
nature. 1t is common to offer prizes for the
best story, or picture, or architectural plan, all
the competitors risking the loss of their labor
and the successful one merely selling his for
the amount Of the prize. But the Press Claims
Compauy's offer is something entirely differ
emit Each person is asked merely to help him
self, and the one who helps himself TO the best
advantage is to be rewarded for doing it, The
prize is only stimulus to do something that
would be well worth doing without it, The
architect whose competitive plan for a club
house on certain corner is not accepted has
spent his labor on something OF very LITTLE use
to him, But the person who patents a simple
and useful device in the Press Claims Compa'
nys competition. need not worry II he fail to
secure the prize. He has substantial result
to show for his work-one that will command
its value in the market at any time.
The plain man who uses any articles in his
daily work ought to know better how to i'm
prove it than the mechanical expert who stud
les it only from the theoretical point OF view.
Get rid of the idea that an improvement can
be too simple to be worth patenting The
simpler the better. The person who best sue
ceeds in combining simplicity and popularity,
will get the Press Claims Companys twenty
FIVE hundred dollars.
The responsibility of the company may be
judged from the fact that its stock is held by
about three hundred of the leading newspa.
peers of the United States.

THE LITTLE THINGS THE MOST
VALUABLE.

Comparatively few people regard themselves
as inventors, but almost everybody has been
struck at one time or another, with ideas that
seemed calculated to reduce some of the little
frictions of life. Usually such ideas are dis
missed without further thought.
why don't the railroad companies make its
car windows so that they can be slid up and
down without breaking the passenger backs?'
exclaims a traveller. 'If l were running the
road would make them in such way"
What was the man who made this sucepan
thinking OFF" grumbles the cook. He never
had to work over the stove, or he would have
known how it ought to have been fxed'
Hang such a collar buttonl" growls the man
who is late for breakfast. "If l were in the
business I'd make buttons that wouldn't slip
out, or break OFF, or gouge out the back of my
neck"
And then the various sufferers forget about
their grievances and begin to think of some
thing else. ii they would sit down at the next
convenient opportunity, put their ideas about
car windows. saucepans. and collar buttons in
to practical shape, and then apply for patents
they might find themselves as independently
wealthy as the man who invented the iron UNI
brella ring, or the one who patented the fifteen
puzzle.

Mango in Hogs.

Hogs, when permitted to lie in
filthy quarters or dump straw, are
liable to become afflicted with par
asitic disease of the skin, called
mango, and white-haired hogs ap-
pear to be much more subject to it
than dark -colored or spotted ones.
Preventive measures consist in fur
nishing the hog with clean, dry
quarters for his bed, and in keeping
him away from the manure heaps
and damp straw. When pigs are
attacked by mango, growth is ar
rested, and all food consumed is
simply wasted. 1t should be at
tended to upon the appearance of
the slightest symptoms, and may
be easily cured by a thorough wash
ing with strong soap-suds. In ma
lignant cases this treatment will
scarcely be found sufficient, A
mixture of two parts of flowers of
sulphur and three parts ofsoft soap
may be used in such cases, to be
washed off in two or three days
with warm water, and if necessary
the application may be repeated af-
ter eight days. 1t should be APP
piled where there is the slightest
of the disease-on the
tail, legs, inside of the ears, etc,
for, if not thoroughly eradicated, it
will again spread all over the body.

NOT SO HARD As 1T SEEMS.

patent strikes person as an appallingly
formidable thing The idea is that an inventor
must be natural genius, like Edison or Bell;
that he must devote years to delving in compli-
Gated mechanical problems. and that he must
spend fortune on delicate experiments before
he can get new device to a patentable degree
of perfection. This delusion the company de-
sires to dspel. 1t desires to get into the head
OF the public clear comprehension OF the fact
that it is not the great complex, and expensive
inventions that bring the best returns to their
authors but the little. simple and cheap ones
the things that seem so absurdly trivial that
the average citizen would feel somewhat
ashamed of bringing them to the attention Of
the Patent Office.
Edison saws that the profits he has received
from the patents on all his marvellous invent
ions have not been sufficient to pay the cost OF
his experiments. But the man who conceived
the idea of fastening bit of rubber cord to
child's ball so that it would come back to the
hand when thrown, made a fortune out of the
scheme. The modern sewing machine is mi
racle OF ingenuity-the product OF the toll OF
hundreds OF busy brains through hundred
and fifty years, but the whole brilliant result
rests upon putting the eye OF the needle at the
point instead of at the other end.
