NEW COMBINED HARVESTER.

The test of the combined harvester,
invented and manufactured by A.
Anderson .and Neil Quesnell at Mos
cow, which was made in a field near
the city the latter part of the week, it
Is claimed proved highly successful.
Concerning the new machine the
lournal says:
After more than two years of
hard labor and experiments, during
) which there were repeated setbacks
8 which would have discouraged the av-
age man, A. Anderson and Neil
Quesnell have sufficiently perfected
heir new combined harvester that ex-
perienced farmers who witnessed the
trials yesterday afternoon declare that
the implement world will be revolu-
tionized. 1t was announced by the in
ventors this afternoon that their sue
cess had been SO gratifying that they
would go about the preliminary de-
tails for the establishment in Moscow
of factory, the structure and the
necessary machinery to cost in the
neighborhood of $40, 900.
''The new combined harvester does
the cutting, threshing and sacking
and does away with the binder now in
general use. The machine can be
placed on the market for $700 while
the present harvesting machines
cost $4,000. The present harvester
require from sc to 40 horses to ope-
rate them and the new Anderson
Quesnell is worked nicely with four
horses. But two men are needed on
the machine instead of six or eight.
One is the driver and the other is the
sacker.
The new machine is simple in
every particular. There are no bulky
pieces of machinery and all the work
ings are open. AS the reaper mows
down the standing grain, it is carried
on the table and sent through three
tanners and in the experiments yes
terday afternoon, the wheat was sur
prisingly clean.

The harvesting of the great acre

little delayed by the rain of the first
4 the week, since when harvest con-
ditions have been perfect, and a
large portion of the crop is now in
shock or sack. The many new com

are having the effect of cutting the
harvest time short, and by September
18th with good weather practically
all the grain will be in the sack and

of saddle and pack horses for the
Bitterroot mountains. At Orifno to-
morrow they will be joined by G. T.

The party will go via the Lolo trail

will fortify themselves against attack

The continued dry weather was
broken Sunday night when a heavy
rain fell over the Palouse country. and
since then the air has been cool and

GROCERY PEDDLERs TOO.

In dealing with the box car grocery
peddier, a recent opinion rendered bv
State Attorney General Atkinson, in
response to request for information
on the part of State Food Commits
sioner Davies, is suggestive and will
be OF interest to country grocery
dealers. Mr.. Davies, in letter to
the attorney general, calls attention
to the fact that grocery peddlers take
orders among the farmers for grocer
les, ship the same in by the carload
from outside states, each order packed
in separate boxes, and asks whether he
is authorized to break the boxes and
purchase samples therefrom.
+ Mr.. Atkinson replies: "Three is no
doubt but what you have the right to
break boxes or packages when you
have good reason to believe they con-
tain adulterated foods or suspect that
they do, and you are required, under
the law to pay only the value of the
samples taken for analysis. -
Grocery peddlers have long been
claiming immunity from having their
/
goods molested by food commissioners
when shipped into this state on the
ground that they were shipped in
original packages direct to the con-
sumner. This decision of the attorney
general is rather severe jolt to their
contentious on this point.
The action of the food commission
would indicate that he may be ex
pected to get busy with the pedd-
lers, and inasmuch as it is known that
the peddler usually sells short weight,
adulterated or inferior goods under
representations that they are much
better than experience with them usu-
ally shows them to be, interesting
developments may be expected. The
case at Colvile is illustrative not
only of the probable disappointment
in the quality of the goods but also of
the prices at which they were sold.
The peddlers claimed to be representa-
tives of Portland wholesale house
and admitted that they could not sell
to the regular established grocers.
On an order for which a Colville con-
sumner paid S22. 73, cash on delivery, it
was found by making an itemized
comparison with the regular prices of
the local merchants for corresponding
or even better grades of goods, that
any of the home dealers could have
filled the same bill for $3.50 on the
usual terms of credit. Here Is a
difference of 4.83, and for cash on an
order of this size the regular dealers
would have been glad to name dis
count of per cent, further increasing
the difference in favor of the home
merchant. Trade.

PROCEEDINGS Of
THE CITY COUNCIL
Business Transacted by City Dads
in Regular Ses-
sion

All members of the city council
were on hand ready to transact the
business of the municipality Thursday
evening except Councilman Scott and
Mayor Staley, the former being in
the east and the mayor not yet having
sufficiently recovered from his recent
attack of typhoid fever to get down
to business again. Councilman Baker
was mayor protein.
The special macada mizing committee
reported that there was $53.7S due
Contractor Horton for extra work
done, and that there was also $625 due
on the regular contracts for work
completed since the last allowance
made by the council The committee
stated that the first contract, for the
macadamizing of Main and Grand
streets was about five-sixths COM
pleted, the second contract, for Olsen
and Alder, being about two thirds
done.
An application for a shooting gal
lery license on Main street was granted.
The resolution for the vacations of
portions of Mckenzie street was
passed, as was the ordinance creating
sewer district No. 2.
An ordinance providing for the con-
struction of electric signs in front of
business houses, was read first time
and laid over till the next meeting.
Should this ordinance pass, it would
permit the erection of signs across the
sidewalks at height of nine fee, but
as the idea did not seem to meet with
much approval, it will probably
never become a law.
The committee on fire and water
was instructed to reply to the COM
munication of A. Beamer, superin.
tendent of this division of the North.
ern Pacific railroad, in regard to the
supplying of the branch road with wa
ter for its engines.

Duluth, Mimi, Feb. 15.-The ma
tional fame into which Thomas F. Cole
has come because of having been the
fundamentally thru which the war

Heinze interests was adjusted is no
surprise to those who know the man.
His career in the mining industry has
been such that it has been apparent
to all acquainted with it that it was
only question Of time until he would
be one of the foremost figures in the
mining world. His mining career, be-
ginning at the age of 8 years in tho
Michigan copper country, and his
steady rise thru various lines OF that
industry, even to braking on the cop
per carrying railroad, have been a his.
tory Of steady advancement.
At 80 years Of age he was IN charge
of what was then the greatest group OF
mines in the country. When the Car
negie interests went after iron, Mr..
Cole was quickly associated with them
as the operating head. When the Car
negie interests merged into the steel
