StuuiOieS OIL Chickens natCllng Oy the
wholesale IN a glass incubator.
Heretofore the final assembling of
Ford cars was a matter of showing a
section of a partially completed car onto
a group of mon, who put in another part
and showed the car on to the next group.
Cars were thus kept moving along in
four long rows. The same system now
prevails, the assembling being done in
four rows, each 900 feet long, but one of
the four rows has the advantage of a
new arrangement in the way of a con-
veyor. With the aid of the conveyor
production is speeded up so that the
line produces 80 completed cars in an
hour. There is very keen rivalry among
the workmen of the four different as
sembling lines, especially since the
adoption of the mechanical conveyor,
which is really being tested out.
At the beginning of the assembling
line is a heap of rear axles. These are
showed along from group to group, until
the skeleton of a chassis with wheels is
evolved. Then the conveyor is reached.
This consists merely of two. endless rows
of revolving steel wheels, set in grooves
on which the car rests. Each car is
coupled to the one in front. and a power
device with coupling attachment and
starting lever shoves the row of coupled
skeletons up the line. Every few feet
stands a group of workman, uuder their
own foreman, whose duty is to do one
simple operation in assembling.
One group fastens on the gasoline
tank, another drops IN the complete
engine: another fastens the steering
apparatus in place: another puts on a
certain bolt, etc. The long line of skele-
ton cars, always growing a little more
like a real automobile every few feet,
moves just slowly enough over the
rollers of the c~onveyorto give each group
of men time enough to do one special
job. Naturally there can be no Ioafing.
As o o rs a radiator is on or a gasoline
tank arranged, the next car has crnpt
up and is waiting to be similarly treated
The factory is so arranged that these
various parts of the car are easily az
cesslb!e. Some drop from the floor
above by gravity just where they are
needed, some are carried 10 their place
in the assembling line by power con
veyors
When the upper end of the line is
reached the car is complete. every part
in place and ready 10 run. The back
wheels are set spinning by the conveyor
on which they rest. That starts tho
engine without The necessity of crank
ing it. A tester hops INTO the seat.
There is a shove of a lever from behind
which starts the car off the C; nveyor.
The clutch is thrown in, and the car
rolls off to the floor, the front wheels
hit a swinging door so arranged that
this action opens it automatically, and
the car is in the shipping yard, where
remains only the lacking up OF the rear
wheels for a brief test before running
onto the freight car.
The car you see rolling out into the
yard is the very one you have watched
grow IN that line of magic. 1t is the
evolution of that rear axle you saw
sixty minutes ago nine hundred feet
away.

Some of the thirty odd witnesses
from Milton and vicinity subpoened for
the Holum murder trial at Grand Forks
may be entitled to be styled as star
witnesses, but there are some of con-
siderably lesser Importance. Take for
instance the case of John Stewart, son
of Uncle Bob Stewart. According to
the Globe his only connection with the
case was that he drove the horse
Barney" which Holum claims kicked
his wife to death, at the Robb farm
southeast of town, after they had pur-
chased the animal at an auction sale.

FIFTH LECTURE
CnILD'S WELFARE
Final Number of High School
Lecture Course by Dean H. E.
French Friday Night

The fifth and last number of the
Lecture Course Is to open the discussion
in regard to medical treatment Of child
rem. Last year the Woman's Club wish
ed to have DR.. Hoog, of Minnesota come
here. This year In connection with the
Lecture Course it is thought advisable
to haye, as one of the lectures something
in regard TO this. For this reason we
have chosen the dean of the Medical
school at the University of North
Dakota. Dean French has lectured
throughout the state but more especially
in the graded and High Schools in the
city of Grand Forks, on many subjects
relating to the child's welfare. Our
idea is that in as much as medical in
spectlon should find a place in our
school work, Doctor French would be
the man to give US the general introduce
ton pertinent to this subject. 1t is
hoped that all parents of children in or
out of the schools, all men and women
in the community, that every boy and
girl of the graded and the High School
will be interested in hearing d man so
much sought after by School Boards,
| Women's Clubs and Lecture Course
committees.

SIX AMENDMENTS BEFORE TIE VOTER

Six proposed constitutional amend
ments will be voted in the coming state
election, according to the notice just
issued by Thomas Hall, secretary of
state. Most important of the amend
men,s, and the one hal will create the
greatest contest, is hat for woman Sutf-
rage. The suffrage movement differs
from other amendments OF the const,tu-
ton IN that it requires favorable action
by only one legislature TO place it be-
fore the electorate. while all other
amendments require favorable action by
two successive assemblies. Two meas
ures with reference to the initiative and
referendum will be considered. One
provides for making the principle APP
pllcable only to statutes, thus being
known as the BeSseSsen-Oyersn meas
ure, while the other. known as the
Gibbons bill. makes the principle ap-
pllcable only to the constitution, An
other important amendment would give
the commonwealth the authority to
establish and operate terminal grain
elevators within the state. The Welo
highway bill gives the legislature power
to make appropriation of public monies
for road construction. Under the con
stitution, the hands of Legislators are
tied so far as making appropriations of
that nature is concerned, Should the
Welo bill be adopted, it would open the
way to the establishment OF a system of
state highways.

W. II. HICKOX CALLED
EstimabIe Citizen Passed Away After
Short Struggle With Lagrippe

At the home OF his son-in-law, E. L.
McKevey. or Saturday morning W, H..
Hickox sueoumbed to an attack of lagrip-
pc after weeks illness, to the intense
sorrow of the entire community whereshe
has for many years enjoyed the respect
and esteem of all who knew him.
William H. Hckox was born in Illinois
fifty seven years ago. In 1897 he came
to Rocky Ford for the benefit of his
health-his friends at that time giving
him but year to live. But our climate
proved SO beneficial that in a short time
he embarked in the barbering business
which he successfully conducted for sew
eral years, until he had accumulated
sufficient property that he was able to
retire from active work,
During the most troublous period of
our civic history-the battle for relief
from the saloon incubus-Mr. Hickox
ably served the city as alderman, and to
him belongs portion of the honor that
Rocky Ford became a prohibition city.
To mourn his passing he leaves an only
daughter. Mrs. E, L. McKelyey. and three
young grandsons who will greatly miss
his CHEEKY presence. and to them the
sympathy of everyone is extended.
Funeral services were conducted at the
late home of deceased on Monday morn
ing by Rev. S, B. Warner and were at
tended by large concourse of friends.
Interment was in Valley View cemetery
under the auspices of Rocky Ford Lodge.
