plow-lift last year is making
preparations to give it a prac-
tical test. He is having set
of four made at Mangold' 8

of our citizens was held last
night to talk over the PROPOSE
ton of organizing a company
to assist Mr.. Caincross in pro-
noting his invention. The
belief is general among those
who have seen it that the in

able one. Like other inven-

Save tho Moisture.

Talk by o. C. Gregg at
Sherwood farmers institute:
Crop yields are usually limited
by the amount of moisture in
the soil. An increase in soil
moisture would mean an in
crease in the crop. Much can
be done to save moisture, first:
by getting all the rain and
snow into the soil and then
not to let them escape except
through the plant. The first
point is accomplished by deep
blowing and by keeping the
soil in condition so that the
moisture from rain can soak in
quickly, thus not giving it a
chance to run off. Deep plow-
ing and the loose surface bring
this about. Soil moisture can
move upward through the COM
pact soil, but not through
loose soil, 80 to bring it up to
the plant it may be necessary
to compact the soil and es-
pecially on spring blowing.
To prevent the moisture pass
ing up to the surface and
evaporating, keep the surface
loose. These principles can
be illustrated ii the following
way: Put some powdered sugar

This is certainly an excellent

not believe can be equalled by
any city in the state of less

on a lump of sugar and touch
it to some coffee or water.
Notice how fast the moisture
goes up through the compact
sugar and how slowly it moves
through the powdered sugar.
Narrowing the land loosens
up the surface and so stops
evaporation. The earlier it
can be done in the spring the
mole moisture will be saved.
It is also we'll to harrow grain
after it is up. This loosening
up of the soil saves moisture
and it also kills weeds.

DYNAMITERs ARE STILL BUSY.
Again Attempt to Wreck Business
Block in Kansas City.

Kansas City, Sept. 27.-Dynamiters
last night attempted to wreck a new
business block which c. H. F'ristoe, a
contractor, is erecting at Eighteenth
street and Grand avenue. Four heavy
charges of the explosive were placed
under a wall of the building and the
fuses to all of them lighted. Only two
charges exploded, however. The dam
age was slight.
Police have been unable to ascertain
the cause for dynamiting. Fristoe en-
ployed union labor on the structure. A
personal enemy of the contractor may
have committed the crime, the police
say, but as they have been unable to
locate Fristoe, they are not positive in
this belief. There have been no ar
rests.
This is the third attempt at wreck
ing structures that has been made
here in the last two months. Dynamite
was first used on a new building owned
by Montgomery Ward. Later a charge
of nitro-glycerin was discharged on
the new Armour-Swift- Burlington
bridge which is to span the Missouri
river north of the city.

PLANT FIGHT IS OVER.
Official Announcement Now Made of
a Settlement.

Boston, Sept. 27.-Official announce
ment of the settlement of the fight
against the United Shoe Machinery
company by Thomas G. Plant of Rox-
bury, president of the Thomas G.
Plant Shoe company, which substitute
ed the machines of the United COM
pany last spring by Wonder Worker
machines, has been made here by
Louis A. Coolidge, treasurer of the
United company.
Mr.. Coolidge's announcement says:
THE litigation between Thomas G.
Plant and the United Shoe Machinery
company has been settled. 1t is not
at all certain that any further state
ment than this will be made, and at
the moment it would appear as if
there would be none"
The United Shoe Machinery com
pany was practically without a rival
until two years ago when Thomas G.
Plant, with factories in Lynn, Haver-
hill and Roxbury, declared war against
it, claiming that contracts under
which it was alleged manufacturer
was permitted to use no machinery
other than that of the United company
was Illegal Expert inventors were
placed at work, with the result that
last spring the Plant factories replac-
ed the machines of the United com
pany with those which the expert me-
chanics had produced.
The United company three months
later began suit for breach of contract
by the Plant company. In connection
with the preliminary skirmishes in
the courts, the statement was much in
published interviews and in newspa-
per advertisements that the fight was
