Dear Sir: | have used your Combined Planter for two

ease and least labor of any farm implement that l have

tertillEing and drilling peas at the same time. It has
saved me many times its cost and labor, and has caused
me to make better crops by fertilizing better and pro-
ducing better stands.
1t is my opinion that any successful farmer, testing
this planter for one season, would nav $50 90 for # rath,
er than have to be without it.

the grain from the cold. This is especially necessary
IN planting fall oats; sown in this way, none was ever
known to be killed by the cold.
Remove saw feed used for planting cotton and
use small extra feed sent with machine. TO do tnie,
nrst remove sprocket wheel, take ont bearing, loosen
set screws on both feeds and draw out mandrel, or
axle. Exchange feeds as aboveadirected and readiust
axle setting feeds towards partition in the box so
blades Will Just pass edge slots in bottom.
Either box may be used for drilling grain or
fertilizer, but we recommend the right hand box for
grain, as the dirt falling around the pillow will cover
1t better and get it under the fertilizer; for the rea-
son that grain has no tap root, and the fertilizer should
be on top of the seed instead of underneath.

A RULE LAID DOWN
Union Resolutions Cannot Over
ride United States Laws.
President Roosevelt Orders the Pub
lie Printer to Rcinstate Miller
I'm His Position as Assistant
Foreman of the Govcrn-
ment Printing Omce.

Washington, July 21.-William A.
Miller on May is last was removed
by the public printer from his posi-
tion of assistant foreman of the gov
ernment printing Office because he
had been expelled from the local
union of the International Brother
hood of Bookbinders. Mr.. Miller COM
planned to the civil service commits
sion, and on July it requested MIR.
Miller's reassignment to duty, his re-
moval being contrary to civil service
rules.
Complaint also had been made to
the president, and by his direction
Secretary Cortelyou Investigated the
matter. On July 10 President Roose-
welt wrote as follows:
"My Dear Secretary Cortelyou:-In
accordance with the letter of the civil
service commission of July 6, the pub
lie printer will reinstate Mr.. w. \.
Miller in his position. Meanwhile
will withhold my final decision of the
whole case until | have received the
report of the investigation on Mil
ler's second communication, which
you notify me has been begun to-
day.
"On the face of the papers present
ed Miller would appear to have been
removed in violation of the law.
There is no objection to the employees
of the government printing Office
constituting themselves into n body
If they desire so to do, but no rules
or resolutions of that union can be
permitted to override the laws of the
United States, which it is my sworn
duty to enforce.
please communicate copy of this
letter to the public printer for his in
formation and that of his subordi-
nates."
The next day the president follow
ed this letter up with the following
letter to Secretary Cortelyou: I'm
connection with my letter of yester-
day l call attention to this Judgment
and award by the anthracite coal
strike commission in it's report to me
of March IS last.
1T is adiudged and awarded that
no person shall be refused employ
ment or in any way Disseminated
against on account of membership or
non-membership in any labor organ
ization. and that there shall be no
discrimination against or interfer-
ence with any employe who is not
member of any labor organization by
members of such organization
81 heartily approved this award by
the commission appointed by me,
which itself included n member of
labor union. This commission was
dealing with labor organizations
working for private employers. 1t
is of course mere elementary decency
to require that all the government
departments shall he handled in ac.
cordance with the principle thus
clearly and fearlessly enunciated.
please furnish a copy of this let
ter both to Mr.. Palmer and to the
civil service commission for their
guidance
1t is announced that Public Printer
Palmer on July 16 notified Mr.. Miller
that he had been reinstated.

there has never been n conclave in
which there are so many candidates
who have n fair chance of winning.
1t is believed that the foreign car
dinals will ultimately give the cast
ing votes, as, living far away from
Rome, where different factions flour
ish, they will be more impartial, espe-
cially as it is admitted by all that the
new pope will be chosen from among
the Italian candidates. For this lat
ter reason there cannot be national
rivalry among the foreigners.
The death of the pope brings about
widespread change in all the adj
ministrative departments of the
church and considerably influences
questions of church policy. The
change within the Vatican affects
practically all the officials from the
highest to the lowest Cardinal
Rampolla retires from the post of sec
retary of state, where he exercised
strong influence owing to the physi-
cal intirmities of Leo. Other high of
ficials are similarly affected.
There is complete transformation
of apostolic authority, the death of
the pope meaning the nominal death
of all the officials under him. The
propaganda alone remains intact, as
the entire machinery of the propa
ganda is unaffected.
The chief international questions
which may be affected by the death
of the pope are those connected with
the suppression of religious orders in
France. the change of the clergy in
the new Spanish-Americon posses
sions. the selection of a successor of
the late Cardinal Vaughan and at
tendant questions connected with the
administration of the church in Eng
land.
