Save Straw With Moscow Combine

p"NC FotIu" Win NIOSCpW SOLlulbe
The newspapers are now author
lied to announce that the manufac-
turers Of the Idaho National Har-
yester have perfected a devise that
viii enable the farmer to save his
straw. The plan is very simple,
consisting of nothing more than a
canvas bag that will hang from a
frame behind and under the ma
chine, and is, when filled, tripped
and dumped by the sack sower. This
will leave the chaff and as much OF
the straw as the farmer wishes to
save in piles in the field, where ii
may be gathered up later.
Much criticism has come from
those who have insisted that they
must save their straw, and to satisfy
these people the Idaho is to be equip
ped with a straW-saying devise.
1t was found that in some sections
for instance, Grass Valley, Oregon
conditions make 1t absolutely neces-
sary that the farmer save his straw
and it was at the request of these
people that the Idaho company add
ed the attachment. 1t will add very
little weight to the machine, and will
in no way complicate the harvester
If the public insists Manager MiA
says the company will put on an up
to-date roller mill, enabling tbs
farmer to convert his wheat into
-four as it comes from the field, and
under forced necessity, a bakery may
be maintained, converting the croI

AS Result of Racetrack and
Lottery Gambling as to
Cause a Crusade.

COPENFIAGlEN,D Denmark. Nov. IS
Scandals arising from racetrack
and lottery gambling have been grow
ing to such an extent in Denmark
for the last few years that the move
ment for the abolition Of the prac-
tees is becoming strong. Although
the number Of lotteries has steadily
increased the demand for tickets con-
tinues to grow and on both the run
ming and trotting tracks enormous
sums are wagered. 4
1t is believed that the growth in
pecuIatton and similar crimes is d.
rectIy due to this fever for gambling.
Several cashiers Of labor unions have
IaCely been arrested for embezzling
funds entrusted to their care and the
causes of their peculatIons have been
traced to the betting mania.
The movement. for the control OF
lotteries and betting is growing. but
there is no im diate prospect of it's
success. The government gains .
considerable income from both lot
teries and racetrack betting, and
as there has been a deficiency in the
state budget for the last few years.
any attempt to sweep away this
source of revenue Will meet with

SCANDALS GROW
SO QUICKLY NOW
strong opposition.

Never before in the history of the
Danish theater has business been so
bad as during the main season. Lately
the old Casino theater was obliged to
close and the new manager was COM
PEELED to resign. The stan is trying
to continue the season by playing on
cooperative basis. The other
theaters with the exception of the
Royal Opera and the Norrebros the
alter, which is managed by the pop
ular parody actor, Frederik Jensen.
would also be playing to empty seats
did they not give out large numbers
of complimentary tickets every night.
The managers rascribe the lack Of
attendance to the new tax on theater
tickets. but the real season probably
lies. deeper. A large number of for
mer theater patrons cannot afford
TO attend on account of the prevail
ing hard times and the increased cost
of living. Another reason is the class
of dramas lately supplied to Danish
audiences. The people are growing
weary OF plays which contain inter
minabIe discussions about Socialism
strikes and woman suffrage. Tne
theater patrons get enough of these
discussions in their newspapers and
at meetings.
The most successful plays of the
season have their settings sixty or
seventy years back. when the nervous
tension was not so great as it is to-
day. The final reason is one which
has caused worldwide losses to the
theater and that is the growing pop
ularity OF the moving picture shows.
G. A. o'ReiIly, who is an official o.
the government of the Philippine Is
lands, has just finished six weeks
tour of Denmark which he made fol
the purpose OF studying agriculture
and industrial conditions. He wa:
especially impressed with the agrl'
cultural progress of Denmark and ex'
pressed his surprise that in thll
country there Is no question tina
farming pays. The Investigator ex
pressed the belief that this result h1t
been brought about by the co-opera
tive system among farmers, the
sympathy between these cooperative
unions and the department of agrl.
culture, and the scientific handling
of agricultural problems by the de-
partment.
Another feature OF agriculture
which impressed Mr.. O'Reilly was the
regulation and control of the milk,
butter and egg supply of the country.
He considers that this system is re-
sponsibIe in a large measure for the
health of the Danish people and for
the high reputation OF tnese products
in the foreign markets.
The poverty of Danish orchards and
the lack of handicrafts in the country
were the only points which seen to
have impressed the Investigator un-
favorabIy.
Mr.. o'Rellly will visit other coun.
tries in Europe and on his return to
the Philippines he will endeaTor TO
make practical use OF some of the
observations for the Improvement OF
agricultural and industrial methods
there.
