HARVESTING
MACHINERY
FINE LINE OF HARvESTERS BE-
ING TESTED OUT AND
IMPROVED.

The advanced methods that have
marked the endeavors Of leading men
in all branches OF material progress
have tended to relieve the great part
of the human race from the drudgery
of former times, and in no instance is
this more strongly emphasized than in
the history of the harvesting assisting
agricultural development.
A visit to the harvest fields demon
strates very clearly efforts and energy
which the International Harvester COM
pany are putting forth in the perfect
ing of labor-saving farm machinery
They have had very efficient corps of
engineers and experimental men in the
harvest fields here cvr since the har-
vest began, trying out and developing
new inventions and new devices. These
engineers are making a critical study
Of all the details entering into the
makeup of these machines, and their
new inventions and devices are all
tending to insure reliability and facil.
ity of operation in their construction.
It would make long story to enum-
crate all of the new ideas and devices,
but few of the more important fea-
lures may b given brief description.
Osborne Harvester.
The Osborne harvester, although not
so much used in the west, enjoys
very large trade in the east, and is be-
ing given a very exhaustive test here.
The principal feature is new adjuster
which gives a good square bundle in
all kinds of grain. Also it has a
strengthened main frame and platform
which is absolutely necessary in the
rougher countries Of the east. The man.
ufacturers are trimming it up in var
ious ways to enter into the western
trade. A new and very effective fea-
ture is that of shifting the binding at
tachment whereby the adjustment is
made with one lever, which is placed
Immediately in front of the operator,
making it very easy Of access.
Deering Harvester.
The Deering harvester, which is be-
ing used in an experimental way here,

COMMISSIONERS TO AD-
JUST MATTERS
Corporations That Have Not Wilfully
Neglected to Report Their Earn
inpS ara Re1iaved

Neglected to Report Their Earn
ings are Relieved.
Corporations in the state that have
not Intentionally neglected to file with
the internal revenue collector the re-
port Of their earnings have been reliev-
ed OF the payment of the 81 900 fine
by the commissioner of internal reve-
nue. collections.
The internal revenue law says that
corporations shall report their earnings
to show the amount of their corpora
ton tax. This report must be filed
within designated day. e's
A number of the corporations in
the state, notably many of the banks,
failed to do this and the collector at
Aberdeen Informed these firms of the
law, notifying them that the pens
for such failure was $1,000 as a min
imum fine on failures to report.
The law allows the collector to COM
promise in some cases. Since the time
OF expiration the collector has been
busy getting his fines and in the mean
time there has been q great furry
among the corporations.
In some cases the reports have been
mailed on time, but there has been a
delay in delivery. The banks of the
state felt that there was no liability
unless there had been wilful or inten-
tional neglect.
The matter was then referred to the
commissioner of internal revenue. He
instructed the collector to notify all
delinquents that h had the power to re-
lieve all who filed their returns for
1909, during their returns on time, if
the neglect was not intentional.
will be most welcome news to those
corporations which have been fearing
that the fine of $1,000 would have to
be paid.

is $1O.08. Several St. Johnsbury firms,
as well as some individuals, are using

can be purchased at the stationery stores
and the stamps can be bought running
lengthwise or sidewise as the customer
desires. We have both kinds at the Post

you would use no other kind. Ask for
