HOW PINS ARE MADE.
An Intricate Process Where Machinery
 Docs All the Work.

To make a pin is m Intricate process, but 1t is all done by machinery. A spool of brass wire running on steel posts is fed into jaws which bite or the length of the pin. A small length is left to make the head, which Is formed by three rapid blows or C hammer which moves forward one twentieth of an inch at each blow. The pin then drops to an incline in which are grooves deep enough to admit the shank, but not the head.
 AS the pin moves down its point comes in contact with cylinder with a file like surface, which causes the pin to turn round so that 1t is sharp ened on all sides. It next drops into a receptacle where a layer of pins Is placed, and then layer of finely ground tin until the pan Is filled. Heat and a chemical solution coat the pins with tin.
 They are then polished in a barrel revolving rapidly. They are placed in the papers by machine, which seize5 the paper and crimps 1t into divisions as wide as the length of the pins. The bottom of the box Is made of square steel bars, which allow the shanks but not the heads of the pins to pass through.
 The bars are in motion, thus shaking down the pins until q row Is formed, when they are Clamped in place by the bars. A fold of paper is pushed up against them and pressed into place. This Is repeated until the paper Is full, when another takes its place. It all sounds intricate, but being done by machinery 1t is rapid and cheap, else we could not have the billions of pins that We waste.-IndiNnapolis News.

ELSBERRY SATISFIED WITH
NEW MILKING MACHINE

}. E. Elsberry of the Riverside Dali
ry Farm has his new Human Milking
machine at work and each evening at
S o'clock starts milking his 48 cows.
Mr.. Elsberry SO far is perfectly salts
fed with the machine. He is getting
100 pounds of milk more day, but
the company that sold the machine
does not care to take all the credit for
the increase at this time, but will
await developments.
Mr.. Elsberry is one Of the most
prominent dairymen in North Dakota,
and the results will be watched with
interest. Visitors are always welcome
at the farm. Those who care to see
the machine work may call at the
farm any evening at o'clock. The
machine does as much milking as five
men.
Harry N. Lewis, the local agent,
who resides in this city, will devote
his future time to the business.

SPECIALIST NOW
LOCATED IN MfNOT.

1t is no longer necessary to make
tiresome and expensive trips to the
Twin Cities to consult specialist in
drugless methods. for specialist of
this kind has come to you, with all the
latest equipment and up to the minute
apparatus, electrical and otherwise.
One visit will convince you of my
superior methods, as I have had ten
years experience in handling diseases
by Chiropractic.
WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC?
(Ki-ro-prak-tik)
1t is Not Medicine; Not Surgery
Not OsteOpathy.
1t is scientific method of adjusting
the cause of disease without drugs or
instruments, based on correct knoWl-
edge of anatomy, and especially the
nervous system. The Chiropractic
idea is that the cause of disease is in
the person afflicted, and the adjust
ment in correcting the wron gthat is
producing It. The function Of every
organ in the body is controlled by
mental impulses from the brain, which
it transmits thru the nerves. Any I'M
pingement of these nerves interfering
with the transmission of mental I'M
pulses results in an abnormal function
called disease. This interference is
produced by subluxated vertebrae
pressing upon nerves as they pass GU!
from the spinal cord. The tralneo
Adiuster is able to locate the point OF
obstruction or interference, and by
means of adjusting the subluxated
vertebrae corrects the cause, and nor
NAL conditions or health is the result
Investigation costs nothing and
means health and happiness.

"A TAXPAYER" ANSWERS
ARTICLE BY +. G.. JONES
Declares There We're No Ex-
pressions Against High
Sch0ol-Time Not Ripe

In the Record-Courier of January
Sth, 1915, Frank c. James takes unto
himself the responsibility of discuss
ing the high school question and re-
ferred to the taxpayers of Douglas
county, who expressed themselves
very clearly as against the establish
ment of high school building and
equipment at this time, and berating
the said taxpayers and claiming that
they had reached "a dead level of
mediocrity and intellectual Inertia"
and CHASING them as Knockers and
in the same article admitted that our
high school is on a par with any high
school in the state.
Now. it seems that the writer OF
this article did no understand the
sentiments as expressed by the tax
payers in the vote for indefinite post
ponement of the high school matter
as was brought up and discussed by
the said meeting, and wants to berate
the said taxpayers because their ideas
did not exactly coincide with his. The
writer desires to set forth the follow
ing facts, thus that all who were not
present at said meeting may know:
The said meeting was called by the
lParent-Teachers' Association for the
purpose of discussing high school
building. and the facts are, and as
presented at the meeting, that owing
to the inequality of taxes and other
matters pending at the present time,
that il was deemed best not to pro-
ceed with the said Improvement.
Those who expressed themselves were
not only taxpayers, but the parents
| of a great many of Carson Valleys
growing young men and women. As
Mr. Jones stated, We have high
school operating to a good eud, and
giving as good results as any other
! high school in the state, although not
as convenient or up-to-date as new
the immediate future. That there was
no feeling or expression against
education nor against high school, or
high school building, but that the ex-
preston was that these things should
not be brought about at this time and
without further thought and consid-
Grafton and so the taxpayers who
were voicing these sentiments will
suggest that Mr.. Jones come down
from the clouds and join the knock
er's association of Douglas county,
and pull together for future good re-
suits in all lines of development and
for high school development especial
! ly at time when the taxpayers will
be able and willing to put their
shoulders to that glorious wheel.

went to Reno last Friday and played
the high school teams of that city, re-

by a score of 27-2i and the girls

first game against an outside team,
and the Reno girls have been consist
emily beating the State University
teams, the girls are not discouraged

The victory by the boys puts a large
tack in the high school champion
ship banner for this year. Reno has
defeated all against whom they have
played, and If Douglas high can win
from them upon our floor the cham
pionship is secure. The boys feel
that they have the backing of their
Douglas county friends and nothing
less than another championship team
