THE PATENT RIGHT NAN.


Various kinds Of sharpers are in
the habit Of considering the farmer
their legitimate prey. Among
these what might be termed the
patent right man has been very
active and has, in his day, done rs
large a business as any other. He
has worked the whole field from
the common slide gate to drive
wells and has gathered, in many
hard earned dollars, leaving little
or nothing in return. His methods
have been SO often exposed that it
is surprising to find him still doing
business, but he is very VERSATILE;
when one scheme has been worked
to it's limit the only thing necces-
sary is a new thing to claim a pat
.ent. on and his business again
fourishes. The rapid doing away
with old forms of fencing and the
Introduction Of the wire fence has
opened a new field for patent
rights, and in institute work this
winter the work of the patent right
man has been much in evidence in
some places.
During a discussion Of fences at
an institute this winter the ques-
ton was asked if a certain method
OF bracing end posts was not pat
ented. The questioner believed it
was for he had paid fifty dollars
for the privilege of selling farm
rights for that form of bracing.
The device in question has been
used for some time in various parts
of the state. From the discussion
which followed it appeared that
many of the farmers had paid for
the right to use the device. Not
the least significant fact which APP
peared was that the same territory
claimed by the first speaker was
also held by another man, showing
very plainly the methods of the
owners Of the claimed patent. This
| was more forcibly brought out
when inquiring the whereabouts of
the owner of the patent some one
| volunteered the information that
| he was Gin the Jug"
At another place the III. A. @.
fence, or fence almost identical
with it, was being introduced as
patented fence The agent claim
ed that the patent was on the
manner of fastening the wires to
the stays, which was simply to
staple them. The idea was SO new
and valuable that the agent had
done quite an extensive business
selling farm rights for his fence.
1t may be true, as several farmers
said, that it WAS good fence and
the plan was worth the price
charged; but the fact remains that
paying for something which is
| perfectly free is extremely I'M
businesslike, and invites the adj
vances OF other swindlers, many of
whom leave nothing whatever in
return for the money they receive.

No sooner had he spoken the words

worth of which was more precious 10

What we searched for we did not hnd.
Not a man among us had a match.
Truly we had thought that our cup OF
unhappiness was full, but here was an
other bitter drop added, proving that
there were depths of misery We had not
yet reached. Cold as our hearts were
before, they were colder now. We
were frightened to look one another in
the face; and l speak the honest truth
when l say that at that moment

FIVE wooden matches, and would have

murmur; and so, l do not doubt, would

We did not answer him, but stood
around each other with despairing
souls; and one or two looked up to the
sky, as though hoping that sparks OF
fire would drop from the clouds into
our hands. And one of the men be-
gan to wander in his mind, and COM
menced to sing in a hoarse voice about

aloft to watch DER the life of poor
Jack" Well, well. that sweet little
cherub did not desert poor Jack. after
all, for suddenly a sailor gave scream

a match in his pocket. Only one-but

An island filled with jewels could
not have bought that match from us.
We sat about collecting dry wood,
and tearing it into thin shreds, and
after selecting a sheltered spot. our
best skill was used in building up the
pile which we hoped soon to see blaz-
ing. There was an anxious discussion
as to who should strike the match, and
it was proposed that / should do 1t

that / did not dare. One volunteered
and TO him it was entrusted. We
stood around him in a close circle, tC

and many a silent prayer went up fol-

was successful, and we watched with
thankful hearts the jets Of flame play
