United States governments in
vestigation in 1909, proved that
while the American farmer pays
approximately $4,000 for a g.
foot binder, in France this same
machine costs $173.70; in Ger
many, $4,000; in Sweden, $780,
80; and in Great Britain. $136. 16.
I'm spite of the fact that ma
terials had increased in cost
more than 80 per cent, and wages
more than II per cent, the Inter-
national did not increase it's price
of binders until three years ago,
And then an increase of only z
per cent was made. This, how
ever, owing to some reductions
in material, has been largely
wiped out by an announced re-
duction Of 5 per. cent for 1912,
although the cost of labor has
advanced more than 26 per cent.

International
Makes Reply

In the Implement News of
Aug. S, appeared the following
article in refutation of printed
reports concerning the harvester
trust;
During the last month there
have been widely circulated GER
tain statements regarding the
International Harvester Com
pany, all of which have their
origin in a report made more
than five years ago by Assistant
District Attorney Townsend,
after a brief and partial investi-
cation.
1.-THE International Harvester
Company has presented to the
Stanley Committee, at Washing
ton, a complete and vigorous
answer, in which it is pointed
out that the arguments and con-
illusions of the so-called Town
send Report" are based upon
clearly erroneous statements Of
well-known facts.
'The Townsend Report"
claims that a monopoly in har-
vesting machinery has been Gre
ated because the International
owns the patents on all the best
types Of knotters.
1.-THE truth is that there has
been no patent whatever on the
essential parts of any type of
knotter since 1896, when the
Appleby patent expired. Neither
are there now any patents upon
any essential parts of the grain
binder. The many basic patents
had all expired in 1896, and there
have been no substantial patented
improvements since 1891-twen-
ty years ago-while the life of a
patent, as is we'll known, is only
seventeen years. That there are
no such patents is known to every
manufacturer of harvesters, and
is now emphasized by the fact
that other manufacturers, in
GLIDING the Minnesota State
Prison, have recently closely i'm
itated the International's models.
The Townsend report charges
that of all the different types of
harvesters purchased by the In.
ternational, all except three the
''Deering, Mccormick, and
"Osborne"-have been aban-
doned, and that repairs are not
furnished for any others. This
statement is denied. Repairs for
the Minnie" Buckeye" and
keystone" although not manu-
featured for nearly ten years,
have always been and are still
furnished by the international.
Although the Report states that
the champion" plano" and
milwaukee" binders and now
ers have ceased to be manufac-
tured, the truth is that they have
been since 1902 continuously
manufactured, and are still man.
ufactured by the international
and are generally sold through
out the United States. This is
we'll known to the farmers and
dealers of the country.
1.-THE Reports charge of a
binder Irvine trust" is also dis
cussed. The international is not
only in constant and vigorous
competition with the Plymouth
Cordage Company and a half
dozen or more other smaller
Irvine manufacturers, but also
with seven state penitentiary
Irvine mills.
Since the International was or
ganized, binder Irvine prices have
steadily fallen. and the decrease
between 1902 and 1911 amounts
to 40 per cent.

TRIED TO ROB THE MISER
Fable That Explains Why tho Lom-
hardy Poplar Holds Its Branches
Close to Trunk.

Once there was a man who had
worked early and late In the hope of
getting rich. He never took a holi-
day nor spent any money, for he
wanted to have a pot full of gold for
his old age. Now. the more money he
got the more unhappy he became, for
e was always afraid that some one
5uld rob him OF his treasure. He
hid 1t in his humble home, but he
worried lest II might be taken during
his absence. He buried Il in the
ground. but even that did not set his
mind at rest. At last he hid It In the
thick branches OF a very tall tree.
Even then the miser was afraid that
Eome one would take II. SO he decided
ut last to carry the pot Of gold back to
his home. Just there was where the
trouble began. In his eagerness to
hide the treasure he had not made
himself quite sure as to which tree he
bad used for his money bank.
He asked the spreading linden, the
all sycamore and the honest oak, but
bach tree denied knowing anything
Ibout the gold. The lombardy poplar.
20. protested that II had not aeen the
ot OF shining money. Just then its
ranches were drawn down close to
Is trunk. The tree trembIed. for II did
pt know what to make OF such a
neer feeling. II fell faint, and forgot
pc miser's treasure. That minute
be pot OF gold fell to the ground, and
e iombardy poplar was forever dis.
faced for the falsehood Il had told.
b this day II Won will Ioolr xn,, ,,tIi
