Mr.. Aikele's dropping attach
ment is so arranged that seed can
be dropped at any desired dis
tance apart. The United States
government experts say beets
should not be closer than Is inch
es, while the sugar. factories in
this state want smaller beets and
order the beets to be left 10 inch
es apart. This invention will serve
either the governments or the SUI
gar factories wishes.
A disk is used lin place of the
shoe to loosen the ground and
making the frVrow into which the
seed is deposited. and then cover
ed by two wheels. as regularly
used on drills.
Benefits are Twofold.
The attachments benefits are
two-fOld: First in saving seed
and second in saving time in thin
ming the beets after they come out
Of the ground, though some thin
ming will be necessary in fields
planted with this planter. The
saving in seed will be enormous.
There are $4,000 acres of beeta
planted in Utah this year and an
average of thirteen pounds an
acre of seed is used. At Is cents
pound the seed costs the state
nearly $4,000 for the beet seed
used. With this dropping attach
ment in use, four pounds an acre
of seed will be sufficient. Thus
315. 900 pounds of seed, worth
nearly $4,000, will be saved. If
that amount could be saved an.
nually inUtah alone, what an enor.
nous saving could be made
throughout the whole country.

A Wonderful Beet Machine
Providence Man Makes Success Of Beet
Drill that Will Save Millions.

AT different times The Republi-
can has casually mentioned the
Andrew Aikele beet seed drill at
tachment and touched upon the
possibilities of the machine. 1t ap-
pears that Mr.. Aikele has perfect
ed his invention and that in ac-
tnal operation it is success. In
Inter-MOuntan Republican Of
Thursday the following about
Aikele's invention appears:
After three years unceasing
labor, young Andrew Aikele Jr.,
of Logan, has perfected beet
seed drill attachment which pro-
misses to revolutionize the beet
planting industry of the country.
The invention is a simple attach
ment which may be placed on any
beet drill, and enables the driver
to plant the seed in hills, instead
of in rows.
The attachment is simple, is
made of maleable cast iron, and
costs very little to manufacture,
The four shoes now in use on
drills are removed, and the attach.
ments are placed in their stead
The driver simply goes on attend.
ing to his team while the dropper
does its work. And instead of an
average of thirteen pounds being
necessary to insure an even crop,
four pounds of seed will place
three or more plants in every hill
The present drills sow the seed
in quantities ranging from s to
20 pounds an acre. according to
the quality of the soil, and the
wishes of the land owner. 1t is
estimated that thirteen pounds an
acre is about the average amount
of seed used in this state.

this attachment can be seen in
the valley. giving proof of the real
merits of the planter. Recently
Joseph +. Quincy Jr., manager
of the Amalgamated sugar factor
les of this valley, and =. A. Yoder
director of the agricultural expert
ment station of Utah. visited the
farm. Each said he was more
than pleased with the results, and
assured the inventor he had a
good thing. Here is Mr.. Yoder' s
testimonials
Yoder Says is Saves.
"To whom it may concern /:
This is to certify that I have seen
the Aikele beet planter and in
spected the field after the plants
were up and observed some of its
work. The dropping device oper-
ates with certainty and by thus
dropping the seed in hills at regu-
lar distances apart, it insures
plants at these desired distances
though the total amount Of seed
planted is greatly reduced. A less
proportion of the plants need,
therefore, be wasted in the thin
ming that follows.
"Signed. p. A. YODER."
A sample of the attachment is
on exhibition in Logan, and it is
creating much interest and CON-
ment. Eastern manufactures of
beet drills have inquired about

weak kidneys can be quickly and per
manently cured by the use of Doan's
Kidney Pills. Here is the statement
of Rock Island citizen who has re-
claimed good health by the use of this
remedy.
Mrs. Isaac Shiffer of 1417 Fifth ave
nue., Rock Island, Ills, says:
MY husband was troubled for two
years with kidney trouble before he
found anything to help him. The worst
symptoms he endured were severe
pains in the region of his kidneys and
across his back. and frequent desire to
void the urine, which he could not con-
troll. He was unable TO stOop or lift
anything. He tried many remedies
but got no relief He read of Doan's
Kidney Pills in the paper and decide i
| to try them, procured a box at the Har-
per House pharmacy and after using
them a short time the pains and Other
symptoms left him. have used Doan's
