Deering Ideal Giant Mower.

Every peering Mower is u Giant in strength and each
possesses the same admirable qualities, but the Giant of
all is our special large machine for small horses, which
cuts a 6-foot Swath with as little cNcrtion as other mowers
cut 4! feet. The application of Deering Roller and Ball
Bearings 10 harvesting machinery created II demand for
wide.cutting bars. They also made Deering machines
bamous, as Dcering machines have made roller and ball
fearings equally famous
We have built up n large trade on these mowers in the
native grass and alfalfa sections, which other mowers
wisely avoid. 1t is mechanically correct; has Il wide,
strong frame; the bar is beaded, giving special rigidity,
and the materials are the best that money can buy.
We have Just received a carload of these mowers. We

Sunerintendent Bright takes excep-
tion to a brightly colored chart III use
In country schools which represents the
farmer as painfully moving grass
with a scythe at SIS month, while
opposite an elegantly dressed clerk
costly sells bolt of Bingham to Il
beautiful young lady at $40 month
and another city clerk below Keeps
books on a little mahogany desk at
5000 a month.
Mr.. Bright objects that the chart
conveys a false idea, for the farmer
who really does his moving by ma
chinery, gets board and lodging with
his $40, while the dapper clerk has TO
pay $3.50 a month out of his $40 for
board, lodging and car fare. Also the
business houses which are looking
for bright young men to keep books at
$500 a month, carefully keep their
wants out of the small lad" columns
of the newspapers.
The only defense of the chart is that
it is calculated to make pupils think.
This is true. 1t will make them think
that the authorities which display the
chart have something the matter with
their intellectuals.
1t is rather odd that so much energy
Is devoted to making pupils think
when very likely a small part of the
same energy directed to the desirable
end of making the educators think
would have a much better result
