special policemen are patrolling the
streets and the locations.
The merchants of the range have
agreed not to extend any further

HyLLER AND

A GRADY COUNTY MANS IRVEN-
TON MAKES A TRIAL RUN
GREAT MONEY SAVER

An exhibition run Of new machine
for cleaning and Anlling cotton was
given yesterday afternoon at Every
body's Gin. The machine is the in
vention Of J. L. Hart and application
for patent is pending. Tt was built BY
the inventor at Gamers planning mill.
This was not the first time that
the machine had been used as Mr..
Hart used a similar one last year at
the Norway gin, a million pounds Of
cotton being run through it. Cotton
bolls are taken and run through the
machine, the hull being aoyc r.on
the fiber and all dirt aad dust being
eliminated. The machi,2 IS opera.e1
in connection with hulla M
Other machines for tie ia. pose Are
in use, but Mr.. Mr.. Hart claims a
special advantage for lis .nveri iaa 81
that it cleans the cotton thoroughly
before it is ginned. All the cotton
that goes through it is carried
over a 20 foot screw against which
is is pressed by cylinders. The ma
chine is four by eight feet and is run
by four-horse gasoline engine. It
will hull forty bales in ten hours.
The machine that was exhibited
viii be shipped to Tuttle where it is
to be installed. 1t is Mr.. Hart's In
tention to put the invention upon the
market, the price'of it being $500. He
already has several orders for it. By
the use Of such a machine, Mr.. Hart
estimates that the cost of cotton pick
ing can be reduced fifty per cent. The
inventor also expects to have anoth-
er machine perfected in few months
which he says viii reyolutionize the
cotton industry.
