more possibility of the horticulture
list succeeding without the faithful
execution of such laws than there
is for the stockman to succeed when
the range is permitted to be over
run with NANCY horses and with
cattle or sheep weighted down With
infectious disease. Thus far the
horticultural interests of the state
have been at decided disadvan-
tsge, because we have not had a
state inspector, authorized and re-
quired to devote his whole time and
attention to horticultural inspection.
A few years ago when the dairy
and pure food law was passed the
duties of the pure food commission
er and the sealer of weights and
measures were imposed upon the
state horticultural inspector, and,
as a necessary consequence, a very
large part of the time of the inspec-
tor has been necessarily devoted to
duties imposed by the dairy and
pure food law. 1t is now proposed
to segregate if possible the two Of
fices and ask the legislature to pro-
vide that the state horticultural in
spector shall devote his entire time
and attention to the duties imposed
by the horticultural inspection law.
The duties imposed by the law
creating the latter office when
properly performed will require all
oil the time and all of the energy
OF the best talent that can be secured
therefor. When this question
comes before the association, /
want to urge upon you the neces-
sity Tor unanimous action, because

ton that its meeting will be far
reaching in its effects. But the

thick, it is again put through the
mills, and if too thin, it is laid
aside for pen for which a thinner
steel can be used. The steel which
started out 10 inches long has been
stretched to about so inches, and is
then ready for the pens to be cut
from it.
Cheap pens are cut from steel
that comes i'll large rolls ready for
use; as it is impossible to roll this
unif -rmly, the pens that are made
from it are very irregular.
Pens are cut in screw presses
provided with dies of the desired
shape. About two hundred styles
of dies are required for regular and
imprint pens.
An operative can cut from forty
to forty-five thousand pens in a day
of eight hours, and her hand will
move about seven miles in doing it.
The blanks are now pierced and
side-cut. These operations, to a
large extent, determine the flexi-
bility of the pen, and vary with the
style of pen, some pens requiring
two and three landings in the
piercing department.
The blanks having been cut from
hard rolled steel, it is now neces-
sary to soften them by annealing.
This is done by putting them in
large iron pots, heating them to
redness for several hours, and then
cooling gradually. They are then
soft and pliable and ready to receive
the name, which is the next opera
ton, called marking Some pens
have a raised letter or design on
them, called embossing. This is
done in marking press.
After marking, the pen is raised,

feet gage to hold the pen, so that
the shears will always cut through
the center of the point.
After the pens have been slit,
they can be used for writing; but
they would be very scratchy and
would stick in the paper. In order
to overcome this, the points are
rounded and made perfectly smooth.
The final examination is now
given each pen; expert examiners
sit before slanting desks on which
is a slate of black glass; the pens
lie on this desk and the examiners
pick up one in each hand, pressing
them On the glass and looking at
the cutting, piercing, marking,
raising, grinding, Sitting, temper
ing, etc. Should the pens have any
imperfections in any of these opera
tions, they are thrown into sepa-
rate boxes, so that each room can
be charged with the amount of its
waste. This waste is then put in
iron pots and heated so as to pre-
vent its being used, when it is sold
for scrap steel. There are 1928
chances to make a bad pen in every
gross; consequently its manufac-
ture requires vigilant care and in
spection.
The pens are now polished, and,
if they are to be left gray, are ready
for the lacquer ing operation; if
they are to be made bronze, blue,
black, or any of the various
shades, they are sent to the temper
ing room, and gradually relocated in
a revolving cylinder until the re-
quircd color appears upon them,
when they are chilled quickly, so
as to prevent the color changing.
The pen is now practically fin

action Of the legislature is not all
that is needed to secure the proper
enforcement of wise horticultural
laws because, back of the law itself
there must be sentiment that will
demand its execution and every
fruit grower should feel that he is
ch arged with the responsibility of
seeing, not only that the law is
complied with by his neighbor, but
/ that his own orchards and his own
fruits are kept free from the OBJ
jectionable insects and diseases.
There is very little encouragement
can assure you for the grower of
20 or 80 or a 40 acre orchard
to spray year after year when the
tree is dormant from the scale and
TO prevent the inroads of fungus
diseases when his neighbor, but a
short distance away, allows his
orchard to become scale infected so
that it is hardly possible for bird
to fly from one orchard to the other
without carrying with 1T the OBJ
jectionable scale. There is but
little encouragement for a grower
to raise fine and perfect fruit, if
others in the same locality are per-
mitted to allow their trees to re-
main infected, and then place their
injected fruit upon the market at
such figures as to exclude the per-
feet fruit therefrom. am not

that is, brought to the form that it
is to have when finished. There
are on the market about two thous-
and styles OF pens.
Raising is done in a peculiarly
constructed screw press, and the
pens are removed by compressed air.
Each pen is now carefully exam
ined for imperfections in the. pre-
vious operations, after which, as
they are soft, it is necessary to
harden them by heating them red
hot, and dropping into cold oil.
The oil is removed by centrifugal
force and boiling lye, and the pens
are then dried in sawdust. Harden
ing makes the pen very brittle, so
that it has no rcsiliency. In order
to obtain the latter quality, the pen
is tempered by gradually relocating
it until it has acquired the greatest
toughness and elasticity possible.
The pen now has a coating of
oxide, which must be removed by
securing. This is done by placing
the pens and securing material in
tumbilng barrels and revolving them
until they are bright. Girls then
grind the pens on emery bobs
lcngthwise and across the nibs.
Some pens have only one operation
IN this department, while others
have two and three. Pens are
ground to enable them to hold the
ink better, and also give them more
resiliency.
The pens are now ready for slit
ting. AS it is necessary to cut
through the hardened and tempered
steel without damaging the point,
it can be readily appreciated that
the tool for doing it must be one of
the most delicate. 1t is miniature

THE COMMON STEEL PEN.
AND HOW II IS MADE
An Interesting Article About the Little
Piece of Steel With Which You
Sign Your Name.

These strips, which are rolled hard
and are too thick to cut pen from,
are annealed by packing them in
iron boxes and heating them at a
low red heat for number of hours.
They are then gradually cooled
under a hood to prevent drafts
striking them. When cool the
strips are soft and coated with a
scale which is removed by a pickle
of dilute sulpburic acid. They are
now ready to be put through the
rolling mill, and reduced to the re-
quired thickness, which averages
about 0.009 of an inch. The rolling
is known as ''cold-rolling," the
strips not being heated after the
first annealing. This gives an in
creased toughness to the steel.
The number of times necessary to
put it through the rolls depends on
how thin the steel is to be rolled.
Each strip is tested with a micro
meter gage, and should it be too
