dispatch from Chippewa Falls, under
date of March 4th containing additional
information regarding the discovery of
j. w. Perkins a former resident of Cava-
lier county and this city:
j.. w. Perkins, who disappeared from

hospital in Madison, Ill. The sad
feature of the case is the fact that he
has lost all recollection of the past. 1t
is proposed to bring him back to Chip

familiar surroundings his mind will be
restored. Similar experiments will also
be made at Langdon. n. D. his home

Sdrles' Mans Invention a Success

William A. Leitcb, of Sarles, claims to
have invented a successful grain shock
ing machine which, if the claims of the
inventor are correct, will. save the far.
mers in all of the grain growing coun-
tries millions of dollars. The invention
consists of a small machine that is at
tached to any binder and 1t takes the
bundles as they fall off from the binder
and carries them in an upright position
on a rotary table. This table rotates
step by step and builds the shock, in
much the same manner as it would be
built by hand. 1t makes two complete
revolutions and then by an ingenious
device is parted in the middle after
which the shock is dropped to the
ground. Several attempts have been
made by other inventors along the same
lines, but have been unsuccessful on &C.
count of the shock tumbling over
forward with the momentum of the
machine. In this machine this is over
come by a very simple device. A steel
ring is held in position on the outside OF
the shock while the same is building
and this ring drops with the shocn and
holds it together until it is deposited on
the ground, when it swings back into
position again and is ready for the next
shock. The machine has undergone
some very extensive tests. At one test
the machine was driven forward at q
trot, and even at that gait 1t placed the
shock in a perfect manner, while the
bundles that were used in the test were
found to weigh not more than about two
pounds. The inventor claims that the
cost of the machine will be hardly more
than the hiring Of help to do the shock.
