Al interesting machine has been
installed in the United States mints
for the automatic weighing of coins
OF ali denominations Last year the
government coined nearly 100000
pieces of gold and 36.000,000 pieces
o. silver. Formerly each piece was
weighed by hand. Sitting at long
tables women. with balance in front
of them, counted the money. II was
their duty to weigh each piece.
Pieces that were too heavy were re-
duced with a file and those that were
too light were thrown aside 10 be
placed again in the melting pot. Gold
pieces were weighed twice, once in
blank and once after coinage.
The new weighing machines have
each ten balances, which are set ac-
cording to the required weight of the
coin being tested. They then work
automatically. each machine taking
10 coins at time The movement
OF the beam of the machine dester-
mines into which of several chutes
the weighed coin shall drop. If II is
too light the scale beam moves up
and the coin is dropped into the
lights" II it is too heavy the coin
drops into the "hcavies." II ii just
balances the coin drops among those
that are of the proper weight. The
work. going on in this manner, is very
accurate and rapid
The mint allows a good bit of "tol-
erance" in coins. That is to say, the
gold double eagle standard weight is

half grain over that or a half grain

SOME IMPORTANT FACTS
FOR THE STOCK FEEDER

as all other stock maintained. to earn
profitable dividend for the owner. Why
not give some attention to a problem or
such grave economic Importance? Why
not devote a part of the thought and en-
ergy expended on the farm to rotating
crops and growing those feeds which will
enable the maintenance Of live stock in
the most efficient condition at q mini
mnm Of cost. It has now been shown
that a large part OF the protein neces-
sary in feeding any class of farm ami
mails may be produced at home. Since
this is the element which has a determin-
ing influence on the value of the service
rendered by farm animals, either as work
stock or as producers of milk or beef,
and is the most costly element to supply
in the ration, the Importance of produc-
ing It at home becomes important from
the standpoint OF both economy and eff
ficiency. What is needed today Is not
opportunity, as that is found everywhere.
Nature has fully performed her part of
the work in enabling man to produce
the greatest possible variety of desirable
foods for animal nutrition. Man alone
has failed in his part of the problem, and
II is because he has not familiarized him
self sufficiently with the processes by
which animals are nourished, developed
and maintained I'm the highest state of
perfection. Can there be any who, in
view of these circumstances, doubt the
wisdom of stimulating the work of the
agricultural college, developing the dis
trict agricultural schools, and fostering
instruction in agriculture in every rural
and high school throughout the length
and breadth of the land

see YOU sow some soy Deans, believing

learn about every crop which experience
alone will teach, and the old adage that
il is well not to put all your eggs in one
basket" is a good one to follow in farm
ing We grow some soy beans every year
to craze down with hogs and we like
them very much for this purpose.
