ABOUT THE BIG TELESCOPES
Difference Between Big Glass at One
End and Little One at
the other.

People sometimes wonder why
telescope has two glasses. one at the
big end and one al the little end ana
they want TO know the difference. The
glass at the big end is 10 gather
light. II is simply a big eye. II II Is
a hundred times bigger than the eye
in YOUR head II will gather a hundred
times more light Il gathers the rays
Of light coming from 4 star and bends
them all into a common meeting
point, called a focus. which Is pic
ture OF the star You can look at this
picture OF the sta with your naked
eye II you like. Put you can see 1t
better and examine II more closely
II you look at IL with a small magni
flying glass. And this is the glass at
the small end OF the telescope. 1t
magnifies the picture made by the big
glass at the other end OF the instru-
ment. All telescopes are built on this
principle. Sir William Herschell was
the first TO arrange matters a little
differently. He took away the glass
from the big end and admitted the
rays coming straight into the tube in
parallel lines. Then at the bottom Of
the big tube he placed a bright con
cave mirror. made OF FURNISHED metal
When the entering rays fell upon this
mirror they were again bent to a
point called focus. which was the
picture OF the star. To look at this
picture he had to place the little
magnifying glass al the side OF the
tube, because the mirror had stopped
up its lower end.

Three In One.

Mr.. Jas. Kersey has been at work Tor
some time on u model OF n machine.
which he believes will fully meet the re-
quirements OF the farmer in this section.
1t is machine intended TO take the place
OF the fresno and corrugator, and ut the
same time level the land preparatory to
seeding.
For corrugating, double disc cuts the
corrugations, and this is followed up by
two wheels attached TO a roller, which
not only packs the dirt in the corruga-
tons. but gently rolls the soil between
the same, sufficient to prevent its being
blown into the corrugations by any slight
wind. With slight alterations the ma
chine can be changed from corrugator
to leveling machine by the removal OF
the discs and attaching a steel plate.
which can be set at any angle and regu-
lated to suit the requirements OF the land
to be worked.
For the corrugation OF old alfalfa fields
Mr. kersey feels that he has struck the
keynote, as the discs cut the roots with
out any difficulty, instead OF tearing them
to pieces, as is done by most corrugators,
and in rocky land it will work to perfec-
ton, as the discs will roll over the rocks,
and all danger from breakage by striking
large boulder is cultivated
Mr. Kersey has model OF the machine
now in working order and would be
pleased to have any practical farmer test
its efficiency by actual use in the field
At any rate call around and examine it,

A New Back for an Old One-How It
Is Done In Bemidji.

The back aches at times with a dull
indescribable feeling, making you

shoot across the region of the kid

ACCUSE HILL OF TRICK
Editor Collins in Washington Makes
Plain Reciprocity Talk.

Washington, May 12.-That James
J.. Hill is no longer interested in the
development OF the Northwest and has
thrown his support to the Canadian
agreement because of his interest in
| railroad construction in the <Domin.
ion is the substance of a statement
made before the senate committee On
finance by P. V. Collins, a member of
the Minnesota delegation which is
here to protest against the pending
| reciprocity bill. Mr.. Collins charged
further that Mr.. Hill was the real
author of this bill'' and, that the pact
! represented the efforts of many years.
Nine Minnesota farmers, in addition
to Mr.. Collins, appeared before the
committee. The morning session of
the committee was set aside for the
benefit of the Minnesota protestants.
There was large gathering of North
western men present. Among them
were Senators Nelson, Clapp, Gronna,

tatives Anderson, Volstead, Steiner
son and Davis. ID.

sented to the committee by Senator

Feig Predicts Party Disaster.
Henry Feig of Minneapolis started
the ball rolling. He denounced the
Canadian bill as IAN iniquitous pact"
While he did not say so in terms Mr.
Feig intimated that the ratification of
the agreement would result disastrous

1912. Mr.. Feig told of an incident
that marked the proceedings of the
Republican national convention in
1892 'The galleries enthusiastically
applauded the name of Blaine Of
Maine," said Mr.. Feig. "A New York
delegate sneeringly observed, 1.-THE
galleries do not vote" Harrison was
nominated. In November of that year,
when Harrison was defeated, mes
sage was sent to Washington from q
little town in Minnesota, saying, "The
galleries do vote, and the galleries
have voted
Next year, perchance," continued
Mr.. Feig, "a message of similar i'm

ton of 1892 and turn the Republicans
