Bunday's New Invention

The Bunday computing beam for
wagon dump scale, a device by which
the weight OF a wagon or other vehicle
is separated from load is among
patents recently awarded to South Da-
kotans. BY this device the weight of
the wagon is given separately from
that of the load, in bushels and
pounds, at a single weighing, thus
dispensing with the usual pencil fig
uring. The results are absolutely cor
rect and are instantly indicated on the
scale beam. The patentee is s.
l.. Bunday of Arlington, a
grain buyer at that place for many
years secretary OF the Central Dakota
FIGURING Mill company, which has
just completed an immense mill and
elevator at that place. The invention
is one that will be especially appreci-
ated by grain buyers, although it is
also adopted to the uses of grocers and
market men.

running away with it. She called to
him but he made away with the fowl.
When Mr.. h. came home and was
informed he took up the trail and
found five or six boys in shed back
of nearby residence quietly cooking
the chicken. On account of the boys
parents Mr.. Rittman does not want
to prosecute the boys or divulge their
names but says that he will do both
unless they pay for the chickens at
once.

AN IMMENSE CROP.
Brookings County Farm Produces
1900 Bushels.

One of the farmer kings of South
Dakota is o. ID. Plumb, who owns a
large tract of land in the vicinity of
Bruce. He has just made an ac-
counting of what he raised. during the
past season, and finds that his land
produced over IL 900 bushels of grain
this year. He had about 400 acres
into crop. Himself and his sons did
all the work OF seeding and harvest
ing, and in addition they have put up
seventy-five tons OF timothy hay for
winter use. Considering that he has
not spent cent for hiring help, Mr..
Plumb has probably made the best
record of any farmer in the state as to
the value of what was produced on his
farm this year.
