A number of other combinations are Obtana-

principal ones that are in use generally 1t is, OF
course, understood that the color plates can be
omitted when not wanted, and that no colors
need be run if not desired.
This machine is also arranged with slitters

The newspapers are delivered pasted, cut and
folded to half-page size, and counted in ffties
at each half page delivery when not collecting,
and in twenty-fves when collecting. The mag
azines would not be pasted, but would be de
livered folded to page size.
The machine is built after the Scott new
heavy patterns with frames five inches thick,
and with six inches additional distance be-
tween tiers.
The impression cylinders are Of uniform di
ameter.

c~v7 HE AGE-HERALD'S new sextuple press
is triumph Of the prgss-builder's art.
- Naturally press IS the most consplcu-
Gus single feature of a newspaper plant because
Of its huge size and the wonderful work it per
FORMS The Age Herald now has two presses, so
that scarcely any emergency can arise which
would prevent the printing of regular issue.
The new sextuple press has the place of honor
in The AgeHerald' s press ROOM 1t has three
tiers in addition to the color tier upon which
colored supplement or magazine work can be
done. 1t is four plates wide and altogether con
sttutes an enormous piece of machinery.
It was built especially for The Age-Herald
by Walter Scott & Co. of Plainfeld, n. j., and
each deck is unusually high for the convenience
Of pressmen in putting the plates in position.
In addition to the extra color printing,
coupled with separate impression cylinder To-
Gated above the third tier, the press is equipped
with one extra color fountain on the folder end
of the third tier with a second color fountain
on the folder end of the second tier, with third
color fountain on the roll end Of the second
tier, together with registering rolls between the
first and second and the second and third tiers

They run in boxes lined with Gov
eminent Phosphor Bronze, specially
constructed so that wear can be
taken up. All important bearings are
supplied with two oil channels prop
erIy tubed to prevent dirt getting
into them. The press is beautifully
finished, with wide platforms, brass
rails and staircase to facilitate reach
ing the upper press and color print

In addition to the new seXtuple
press The Age Herald still has in ser
vice the three TERED press which it
has used for the last ten years. This
press itself has a patent color attach
ment and "fudge" for rapid issuing
of extras. This press is also equipped
with an electric control system and is
operated by motors. Papers from
this press are also taken from the
Press Room to the Mail Room above
by patent conveyors.
This press is used for printing the
Weekly Age-Herald, which is issued
every Thursday morning.

A SIMPLE TEST.
IDes Moines Tribune1.


TO-DAY is the day under all rules and
regulations for the use OF the king drag
when every mile OF road in the rain
belt ought 20 be gone over carefully.
How many farmers are out with king
crags dragging the roads ~
How many miles Of the river 10 river
, road. which is the model of the volun-
/ tary road makers, are being dragged
in Immediately following the rains?
The answer to these questions Is all
the answer any man needs 70 the argu-
ment Of voluntary road working.
The roads Of Iowa Will be worked
voluntarily just when the adjacent
property owners feel like working
them.
There viii never be good roads long
in any one place and never good roads
in two consecutive districts 50 long as
there is want of q system for which
the state IS responsible. and which Is
maintained under the direction Of a
state road engineer.
We might just as well face the road
problem. in any event even If We de-
eide TO do nothing about it,
