As time goes on The modern scieae-

Some few years ago the first adding
machine made its appearance. Since
that time there have been many i'm
prcVements made in the constrI ction
OF these wonderful labor and time
saving machines.
Some three years ago little fellow
by the name of Rodney Narchant in
vented a calculating machine which.
to his mind. surpassed every predeces.
sor. He continued to experiment, i'm
prove and patent his invention until
he thought it worthy of the American
public. Negotiations were made
whereby a company was formed to
manufacture for the market Mar
chants calculating machine.
For the past Is months now, this
company, with offices and factory in
Oakland, Cal. has been working to
capacity TO produce enough machines
to meet the instantaneous and tremen-

well under way, has the demand been

At the close OF the last fiscal year
the company's financial statement
showed such astounding progress to-

COULDN'T STOP AUTOMOBILE.
Man Runs Car for First Time; BegS
Wife to Find Out How to Stop
Pesky Thing.

A Shenandoah business man, who
recently purchased an automobile,
took two or three lessons in driving
and then started out by himself.
From her window his wife proudly
saw him whizz by, well up to the
speed limit. In a minute he came
back again and then again and again.
She wondered why he just contin-
ued to go around that one block
why he did not show off before some
body else part of the time. Finally
she thought she discerned an anxious
look upon his face, so she walked
out to the street and said, PA, what
is the matter?"
Say, Lizzie" he shouted to her
as he went by, telephone to the gar
age and find out
Here his voice was lost in the dis
lance and he completed the sentence
on the next round, how to stop
this darned thing and tell me the next
time l go by"

How Fast a Bullet Falls.

The rate of fall of the bullet from
the line of projection is fixed by the
laws of gravity, hence the more rap
idly the bullet is made to pass from
the rifle to the target the fiatter will
be this curve, or trajectory the
less accurate the estimation OF dis
lance required, and the less the
chances of error through an inaccur-
ate estimate of distance.
The normal ve!octies of our sport
ing rifles, in black powder days, were
about 1900 feet per second. The firs'
of the small bore, high power, smoke
less variety raised this to 1000 fee
seconds for bullets of military length
and 1900 for the shorter sporting
bullets. Now it has gone up TO 31O'
I s. The burning question asked
again and again by the rifieman is
"Where will we stop? Will the 400

Grocery Clerk.

Lyman, Neb., Sept. 20.-Gus Ste
phens, wealthy retired farmer, has
decided one of his ranches contain
ing a section of land to Walter De-
Witt, clerk in a grocery store here.
Stephens act was the result of a
rooster fight. Both men had been
Boosting for months as to whose
rooster was the better fighter.
Stephens told Dewitt he would
give him a ranch if the Nebraska
rooster crowed last.
A fight was arranged and large
crowd gathered under big apple tree
in the city park. At last the birds
were turned loose. They went at
each other viciously. At first they
appeared to be evenly matched. After
battling for almost an hour Stephens
rooster showed signs of being ex-
hausted. 1t was not long until he
fell to the ground defeated.

NOW is THE TIME TO
VISIT CALIFORNIA,

A trip to California some day, no
doubt you have promised yourself
and family. Right now is your OPP
portunity to make good that prom
Use. Harvest is over-the yields
have been large and the markets
good - therefore, you have both
means and the leisure to make the
trip. Never again will you be able
to see as much of the great West
for so small a cost Weather condi-
tions now along the entire Coast
are ideal for sightseeing. The Cal
ifornia Fairs are in full swing and
at the height of their glory. They
seem to have been planned for the
American farmer for both give far
more attention to features that
touch on his welfare than any
previous fairs.
Low fare excursions, including
both Fairs, daily to November Goth
via the Chicago, Milwaukee &c st.
Paul Railway.
You have the choice of two SUI
perb steel-quipped trains THE
PACIFIC LIMITED" and THE
SAN FRANCISCO LIMITED"-each
going through and direct, in fast time
to California.
No farmer should neglect to see
the Pacific Northwest on the return.
Inspect this empire of opportunity.
Stop off at any point, examine the
country, talk to the settlers and
learn first-hand of the wonderful
yields produced on land that cost
from a half to third less per acre
than middle West or eastern land.

ticulars, see the local agent of the
