MACHINES TO KNEAD BREAD
A French Device Capable. of Knead-
ing One Thousand pounds
at a Time.

The American consul at Lyons, France,
reports that during September there was
an exhibition Of mechanical bread kneaders
in that city at which thlrty-f.ve mechanical
devices were exhibited for kneading bread
by power.
Three Wee German invention; all the
others were French. The prices varied
from 500 francs G96.6W to 1000 francs G172).
Most Of them are by steam or electricity,
but all may be worked by hand or gas or
petroleum engines.
These machines will knead from 300 to
1000 pounds of bread in an houc or I'm less
time, and they will knead from one pound
of bread up to 800 pounds. Tney are used
IN nearly every bakery in France, and the
old style Of kneading by hand is nearly out
Of use.
The troughs in which the dough is
kneaded in these machines are generally
about four feet in diameter. When the
work OF kneading is in progress the t ough
turns round slow y, and he dough is tdrned
over by a 81 stem OF metallic claws which
lift II up, throw it over and give it a
thorough turning as completely as could be
done by hand. By this system every part
of the dough is thoroughly kneaded.
1t is said that the bread made by this
system is better than the article made by
the old method. A mechanical bead
Kneader employed in France some twenty
five years ago became very unpopular, but
upon investigation the cause of the unpop-
ulaIity was found TO be in the poor quality
Of flour used. 1t is now considered be. Dad
dispute that the mechanical bread kneader
produces better bread; that it is healthier
than the bread made by the old methods.

DUN'S REVIEW OF TRADE
Colder Weather Brings Better De-
mand for S~easonable Goods.
INDUSTRIAL ACTIVITY CONTINUES
Inadequate supply of Water Richards
Work at the WOODEN and
Pulp Mills of New
England.

NEW YORK, Dec. Ar. G. Dun & Co.'S
weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will
say:
Colder weather brought a better demand
for seasonable merchandise and holiday
trade made good progress, but assortments
are not wholly satisfactory because OF
the conservatism of many dealers who
failed to secure adequate stocks. Indus
trial activity is maintained, except where
1t is customary to limit operations for in
ventories at this season. Shoe factories
receive much forward business, whole
salers anticipating higher prices In keep
ing with the persistent upward tendency
of hides and leather. Recent advances in
pig iron are held, although there is less
pressure to provide for the needs of 1903,
while the steel industry is almost normal
except for the big railroad contracts that
are still deferred. Commercial payments
are gradually improving. Inadequate water
mills in New England. CODE ovens al
Connellsville and various other Industrial
plants, while lake navigation Is about
closed for the season.
Dry goods market conditions are more
quiet, although there is no evidence Of
weakness. In some lines there is the
usual lull that appears in December, while
in other departments the position of the
raw material is a disturbing factor. 1t Is
also noted that there is less complaint of
difficulty experienced in securing deliveries
as desired. There is a steady demand for
cotton goods from buyers, who have re-
fused to operate beyond immediate needs.
Export business Is still handicapped by the
depression in silver market. Shipments of
shifting prints to Manila are recorded and
Red sea buyers make bids below the mar
kct, while attracts little business. I'M
provement continues in the demand for
woolens, although orders are unevenly
distributed. The market has advanced
sufficiently to render 1t certain that most
recorders will command higher prices than
original contracts. Strengths in the DOM
estic hide market is fully sustained. Con-
sumption of leather Is now on a more liberal
scale, although sales are only fair because
all large buyers recovered their require
ments for the balance of the year befor'
the last advance Footwear statesmen re.
port Increased business with jobbers an
retailers and New England producer
receive substantial orders for heavy goods
wholesalers placing contracts in antici-
patton of an advance in prices proportional
to the rise in materials.

IOWA CITY, Ia, Dec. 4-(Special.)-
Captain Carroll Kirk, the bright star of
Iowa athletics since his entrance into the
state university in the fall of 1905, will
enter the ranks of professional ball players
this summer If he can make proper ar
engagements whereby he can graduate from
the remainder of the summer.
Kirk, the hero of many a base ball and
loot ball contest, Is retlcent concerning his
venture into professional base ball ranks.
IL prefer not to announce my intentions
until the contract is drawn and signed" he
said. 1t has, however, leaked out that
Kirk is considering eight or nine offers
from different managers and that at the
present time he is seriously considering a
Des Moines contract. owner Higgins has
been on the Hawkeye captains trail for the
last two or three weeks and IL satisfactory
negotiations result in the next few days
regarding the omission of the spring train
ing and early season playing. Kirk will
probably be seen in the capital city this
summer.
Kirk is an athlete of splendid habits and
gained his fame on the gridiron and dia-
mond largely by hard work, regular hours
and by light training out of season. His
friends predict a brilliant future for him
in professional base ball,
Concerning a position as foot ball coach
next fall. Kirk stated that he wished to
secure a good berth in a high school or
small college. II want to secure a position
as teacher and coach of athletic teams If
possible" he said last night.

HOW RABBIT DODGED THE DOG
Jumps Into Flying Auto and Gasoline
Fumes Kill It's Foolish
Pursuer.

Charles Crampsey, a Newark, n. j., bust
ness man, was driving through Caldwell
with two friends In his automobile, when
on the outskirts of the town they saw a
Cog pursuing a rabbit. TIL dog was bay
ing fiercely and seemed to be gaining on
hurry. The rabbit and its pursuer came
diagonally across the field toward the road
on which the automobile was speeding. but
they were running at a speed far in excess
of the vehicle.
AS the rabbit reached the roadway It
had TO leap on a stone wall that runs
parallel with the highway The elevation
brought It almost on a level with the tom
neau of the machine, and the next instant
it had sprung across the intervening space
and landed ~squarely in the seat behind Mr..
Crampsey, who was driving.
The dog also had to leap the stone wall,
but the automobile had gone by when he
poised for a spring after his quarry, and
he missed landing where bunny did.
The rabbit, after a frightened glance
around, seemed to decide that the auto
mobile was a safe refuge and made no
effort to escape from Mr.. Crampsey, who
had put a protecting arm around 1t.
But the dog gave chase to the automobile
with loud yelps. Mr.. Crsmpsey put on full
I speed, but the animal was game, and soon
began to gain on the car. When he came
! alongside he reeled and the next moment
fell over dead.
The party got out and went back to
where the animal lay. One of Mr.. Cramp-
| sey's friends, a veterinary surgeon, said
the dog, whose heart had been weakened
by, the fierce race, had succumbed to the
gasoline fumes and was suffocated. Mr..
Crampsey took the rabbit home.-Newark
