For BIower-Stackers on Thresh-
ing Machines.

Anamosa, Nov 28.-Another factory
was added to the list for Anamosa
during the past week. A company
headed by r. D. Finegan and Clifford
L. Niles will begin the manufacture
of the Finegan Hood for blower
stackers on threshing machines. A
few of these hoods were manufactured
last season at the WEIGH factory in
this city, but now a building has been
secured and the manufacture will be
carried on extensively. This hood Is
a simple contrivance to attach to the
stackers of the blower type in order
that the straw will not be blown all
over the field. Already several fam
lilies have been added to the city's

inches. From mere on the Dali was
played in Ottumwa's territory and
their goal was threatened on several
occasions. When Oskaloosa would
near the locals goal the red and white
would brace and hold like q stone
wall. The game ended with the ball
on Ottumwa's thirty yard line.
Gooch Was Inning Star.
Gooch, Of the locals, was the shin
ing star Of the mix. He was In the
battle all the time and his gains
through the Quaker's line STAYED OF
a defeat. On the defense he was like
a stonewall and he broke up several
plays of the visitors shortly after
they were started. When Ottumwa
made it's brilliant march down the
field towards Oskaloosa's goal 1t was
Gooch who tore the visitors line to
pieces. Lodwick and Schafer also
figured brilliantly in this magnificent
march, as we'll as Captain Gallagher.
Curtis Oldham, quarterback for the
Qnakers. also made great impress
sion upon the local fans by his lever
work. He directed the attack of the
Ouakers like veteran and his long
end runs came almost proving disas-
trous to the locals.
Many Other stars.
There were other members OF both
squads who deserve credit for the
showing Of their respective teams.
Captain Gallagher and Woodrow put
up their usual fine game. Woodrow
was suffering from a badly sprained
ankle before entering the battle but
he went into 1t gamely and was re.
sponsible for many brilliant plays
Captain Gallagher handled his men in
a commendable manner and he him
self made several good gains through
the line.
The work Of Lodwick up until his
retirement from the battle was note
worthy. His end runs could not be
stopped by the Quakers and his line
plunging was worthy OF a college star.
schafer, although playing under a
handicap. was tower Of strength
both on the defense and offense. Burke.
at the guard position. also put up q
splendid exhibition. while Whalen at
end made favorable showing. Gard
ner. who entered the fray in the last
quarter played stellar, game during
his short stay. The entire team put up
a good exhibition and they deserved a
victory. Workman, the heavy fullback
of the visitors, made several good
gains through the locals line His
plunging yesterday afternoon equalled
anything seen on the local gridiron
this season. Hilliard and Utterback
at the half positions played brilliant
games and were responsible for MANY
gains. billiard was like a stonewall
on the defense and had it not been
for some OF his clever tackling Of.
t,1mwa would have scored a touch
down. This visitors line men played
a good game but It was the Quakers
secondary defense that stopped the
local squad.

SAFETY ON THE FREIcHrERs.

What need and value there was in the action of the government in es- tablishing new regulations for ocean liners is indicated by the period of extremely bad weather which has been experienced on the Atlantic for the past fortnight and this is particularly true in relation to the freight carry ing vessels. It was the Titanic dis aster which brought attention to the need of more stringent regulations and 1t will be remembered that it was the inability of the freighters to play the part they should have in giving aid to the sinking ship which accounted for the loss of many of the lives. The Neighters make up a large part of the ocean travel and carry crews of thirty or more men besides valuable cargoes.
 That they are considered much greater risks than the passenger steamers is indicated by the fact that the insurance rates greatly advanced when the fact became known that the number of vessels unaccounted for or overdue was the largest in a period of thirteen years. It shows that the chances taken by these smaller freight vessels are greater, and that should be sufficiently convincing to cause par ticular attention being given to that important branch of steamship traffic In the interest of safety. It is better to take such a step when the lack of provisions is apparent rather than wait until some great catastrophe oc- CUTS to spur on beneficial regulations,
