Potatoes are rapidly dug, cleaned and
sacked by a new apparatus, which has
u plow to unearth the tubers, the dirt
and potatoes falling into an endless.
chain elevator, which delivers them
into hopper with slat sides, which re-
moves the dirt and drops the potatoes
into bag.
A Californian has designed handy
telephone index. comprising vertical
spindle. supported on base. and carry.
Ing two horizontal perforated bars. the
index leaves being Of stiff material and
provided at the back with metallic

swing freely.
Small plants can be closely weeded

Good luck to those that toiled with us

Again, to all hold most dear in life we left
The wives we wooed the BARNS we kissed, and

We toast her name in silence here,
And the girls of Auld Lang Syne.
And last to him. the little man who led

delighted him. He set the insect down on the
