both looked after the details, and the
flock grew and multiplied. 1t was a
beautiful sight and one worthy of a
painters brush to see hundreds of
these snOw-white birds swimming out
every morning to their feeding
grounds and returning with the de-
cline of the evening sun. Their feed
cost almost nothing, yet they grew
and waXed fat, and all the Captain
had to do was to send his surplus to
New York every fall where they
brought fine price.
However there was something to
do, after all, for the live birds had to
be plucked several times a year for
their feathers, which brought 10 cents
per pound.
The Captain and his wife did what
they could, but they could not pluck
them all, hence they got the help of
the neighbor women, some of whom
they paid in cash and others took
their pay i'm feathers for pillows and
feather beds.
1t was not long, however before the
business Outgrew the ability of the
sparsely settled community to pluck
the live birds, and it looked as if it
had reached its limit. At least that
was what the neighbors said, and
they thought they knew, but the Cap
tain was equal to the emergency.
He had seen enough of inventions and
machinery to know what wonderful
things could be accomplished in that
way. and he decided that the work
of pluclling geese must be done by
machinery.
He tried to devise some mechanical
fingers at the end of a flexible trans

light, sandy loan underlaid by a loose

guided it with his hand, but the de-
vice was not satisfactory.
He studied and thought, and CROPPED
in the darkness, but it seemed as if
there were no solution to the problem
One day when the mail came, he
picked up New York paper and
glancing over the headlines he read
these words:
GREAT CYCLONE IN IOWA.
Scores of Lives Lost-One Million
Dollars Worth of Property
Destroyed
Then as he went on through the
details he read that the wind blew
the feathers off of chickens. He for
got the destruction of property. He
was sorry for the destruction of life
hence he let that fact drop from his
mind, but the one fact written large on
the tablets of his brain-the fact more
important to him than anything else
was the fact that the wind blew the
feathers OFF of the chickens.
He threw the paper on the floor,
gazed steadfastly into space for a
moment. then rose to his feet and
shouted, "Eurekar' just as Archimedes
exclaimed 1000 years ago.
He had the right principle, and he
knew he could work out the details.
His mind worked fast and there
quickly passed before his mental
vision the hillside stream that flowed
past his door, water wheel and all
the rest of the paraphernalia.
MANNING no StartpH work on
Il dam; then he put in water wheel
and caused it to drive a blower" at
Il very high speed, and forced air out
of the end of a nozzle at pressure OF
100 pounds to the square inch. Then
he brought d goose and laid it on a
table and turned on the stream of air
and wherever the stream impinged on
the gOose's body the feathers flew as
if they had been shot out of d gun.
The Captain was intoxicated with
excitement and rushed in to his wife
as fast as his wooden leg would per-
nit, to tell her of his great success.
She had insisted that it would not
work and had scOlded him for vast
ing his time Oh it, but now the Cap
tain was triumphant and his wife was
glad But there was one difficulty yet.
The feathers flew everywhere and
would not be confined. Then the Cap
tain built a room with mosquito
screens for walls and on one side he
placed a revolving fan which blew the
air into the room from the outside and
then placing the goose on the table
he directed the stream. of feathers to-
ward the fan where they were drawn
into the room by the forced draught.
The Captain had solved the labor
question and the business grew apace.
He died later, but not until he num-
bered his geese by the tens of thOus-
andS
He developed the quill tOOth-pick
industry as side line and his geese
and feathers set the standard of eX-
cellence for the market. The last
time the Captain spoke of goose farm
ing he used these words: 1t is the
coming business. Geese multiply fast
