Threshing Without Reaping

Threshing Without Reaping.
That a machine has been perfected
which will enable the farmer hereaf-
ter to thresh his grain direct from
its stand in the field, without reap
ing process, is claimed by Frank
Morse in the March Technical World
Magazine of Chicago in describing
the invention of Curtis c. Baldwin
OF Kansas. Last fall this machine
made a record of threshing twenty
five acres of standing grain In ten
hours. A strong blast of air from a
revolving fan is 80 directed against
the standing grain as TO force the
tops against a toothed cylinder, which
threshes off the grain into a trough
and elevated to another thresher, the
chaff being blown out and the clean
kernels falling into sacks as the
machine moves forward, pulled by
four horses. Only two men are re-
quired to operate 1t, one to drive and
the other to tie the sacks and mind
the engine.

NEW YORK, Aug 15-The summer
ending woman's thoughts turn eagerly
to fashions for fall Already the fea-
lures which will characterize the
modes for the approaching season
have been announced by the arbiters
Of style. and begin to appear in the
early models. There have been whis
perings about history repeating itself,
of return to the styles of a century
ago, through the evolution in progress,
of the ultimate crinoine; but it must,
indeed, be a seer to predict such re-
versal in the face of such feminine
fashions as now hold sway. Could the
artists who have created the clinging
robes Of such consummate grace and
beauty Of the past few seasons per-
petrate such horrors as the old-time
hooped skirts? Modern woman for
bid We will not, at least, contem-
plate the crossing of that bridge till
full upon IL. The present, with all its
fascinating illusions in vaporous tulle,
web-like laces. chiffons, crepes and the
softest Of silks, is still delightfully."-
ours, and will merge much of its
charm into the approaching season.
Fur upon a midsummer frock seem
ed paradoxical. Playing similar
prank, Dame Fashion now chooses for
frosty weather the filmy fabrics that
previously have been considered the
prerogatives Of spring and summer
Milady's fall wardrobe may embrace
gowns of ARREST creation and most
ethereal lightness; but. of course, the
more substantial things will be there
too. and it is perhaps more essential
to know about these in detail.
