HERE AND THERE.

The Machias Union thinks that it sees
a connection between the report of the
state treasurer showing balance of cash
on hand amounting 10 something like
500, 200, and an item of the same date in
an Augusta paper, setting forth the siren
Gus need of an annex to the state house
at probable cost of 100000. Well,
there is no better time to enlarge the
home buildings, whether on the farm or
at the state house, than when there is a
surplus on hand, and there is unques-
tionably demand for enlargement of
the state house, whether it is an abso-
lutte necessity or not. However, il is
altogether likely that the surplus will be
used toward the extinguishment of the
states floating debt before the legislat-
ure meets, SO there is no occasion for
immediate worry.

Labor-Saving I'm Tobacco Field.

Springfield Republican.
The shade-growing venture among val
ley tobacco growers has led to the inven-
ton of various labor-saving devices. In the
harvesting one problem was how to hang
the leaves with as little labor as possible,
and yet do the work in a way so that
curing would be facilitated. Growers tried
several plans, some stringing the leaves
with needles. Several machines have been
invented for the purpose, most Of them
failures. The method used by Olds d
Whpple is apparently the best. They use
a lath through which has been driven forty
nails. These project in rows on each side,
twenty in a row. The lath is set in a frame
and a girl on either side hangs on the
leaves. Men remove the laths as fast as
they are filled and hang them in the curing
sheds. A problem was to drive the nails
in the lath economically. 1t would take
man a half-hour to do one lath by hand,
as the nails have to be driven across an
angle, and, of course must be uniform.
But this has been accomplished by the in
vention of an attachment to a mailing ma
chine for driving the nails automatically.
This attachment was invented by A. w.
supply the demand. For their ninety-two
acres of tent-grcwn tobacco Olds & Whip
pie expect to use about 10000 Of these lath.
A late development In the way of tobacco
machinery is a machine to remove the to-
bacco from the lath when 1t Is ready for
bunding. This machine is wonder of
simplicity and effectiveness, and demon
strates the great value OF the application OF
scientific principles TO farm work
