BANK INsTALLst WONDERFUL
MACHINES.

The Brown County Bank, New Ulm,
MINI. has just added a remarkable
machine to it's equipment. A machine
that posts ledgers more neatly, quickly,
and accurately than human being can
do the work.
People who are not acquainted with
the inside workings of bank will not
fully realize the great advantages of
machine work over hand work in Posting
to the Ledger. The big advantages Of
using the machine is the saving in time
and in the improvement in the appear
ance and legibility of the ledger sheet.
The big city banks in New York or
Chicago save at least fifty percent in
time by the machine method and the
Brown County Bank will save at least
that much time. Then too, there is no
possibility OF an error, as the machine
cannot make mistake.
Heretofore the clerks when posting to
the ledger had to just make list of
checks on each account then list of
deposits, add each list separately and
then subtract to get balance. This is
all accomplished in one operation by the
new machine.
One of the remarkable features OF the
machine is that it automatically detects
and marks overdrafts with a minus
sign. When the checks exceed the
deposits no result can be printed unless
the lever is in the subtract position.
The machine automatically adds the
deposits to the Old Balance and subtracts
the checks as they are listed. The new
balance is computed and proved simply
by taking total.
The saving in time means something
to the patrons of the Bank for this time
will be devoted to the improvement of
the service in all departments of the
Bank.
The machine was purchased from the
Burroughs Adding Machine Company
of Detroit and is known as the Burroughs
Misunderstanding Machine. It is the
result of much time and money spent
by the Burroughs 97-man-power Inven-
ton department to find machine that
would supplant the unreliable human
brain in work that has to be absolutely
correct in every detail.
tt nri,tc dotoc odds Old Balances
and Deposits subtracts Checks : COM
putes and prints Balances, and auto
matically detects overdrafts. All the
operator has to do is to put down the
amounts. All further mental effort is
eliminated. There is no human being
who can list and add long column of
figures at the same time with absolute
accuracy, but this machine does it.

GOPHERS ARE DEFEATED.

The New Ulm Gophers went down to
defeat by a score of 80 at the hands of
the Lafayette team Sunday at Lafayette.
1t was the first game that the boys
played and altho quite fast bunch, a
team the size of Lafayette is too much,
especially as the boys had no pitcher to
keep the Lafayette team within the
limits. As result of this Capt. R.
Lindemann is watching for new pitcher
as both the infeld and the outfield are in
a pretty good shape. Lafayette's left
hand twirler Mulligan was in the box
and handed the Gophers their defeat
allowing five scattered hits, which are
credited to Lindemann, Burk and Forster
while Rooster received the other two.
h Considering the size of the Lafayette
players and their past record the Gophers
made somewhat better stab than was
expected and will be prepared to meet
the Lafayette team in the near future.

discussion by putting the discharge in

but week later the boss was passing

at his lathe. Going up to the Irishman
he demanded fiercely:
Didn't you get my letter."
''Yis, sur, Oh did" said Pat.

"Sure, sur, Oh read it inside and Oh

PIRATES DEFEAT SPRINGFIELD
TEAM.
Kuester and Huevelman Pitch
Superb Ball, Allowing But 4
One Hit.

a i ( + II < 4 3
Sunday afternoon, accompanied by
over dozen fans, the Pirates travelled
to Springfield and won their first game
of the season.
Kuester and Huevelman, pitching for
the Pirates, did excellent work. Kuester
did not allow any hits in four innings
and got seven of the Springfield men.
Huevelman allowed but one hit and
struck out nine in five innings. Wurm-
stein pitched for Springfield as Kramer
did not come as expected. He allowed
six hits and struck out seven of the
Pirates. johnson, Wolf and Vogel did
the work behind the bat, the former for
Springfield and the latter two for the
Pirates.
At the end of the fourth inning it
looked as if the game would have to be
postponed on account of rain, but the
shower lasted only five minutes and the
game was played to the finish.
The fielding of both sides was very
good. The inield of both sides was in
good shape, few wild throws being the
only errors.
Springfield got their only hit in the
ninth, when johnson hunted slow
roller to third. Wolf and Dahms both
got two-baggers off Wurmstein. Wolf
got caught stealing third.
The game which was played Sunday
was the first game that New Ulm team
won from Springfield on their home
grounds for over five years.
Next Sunday the Pirates will open
the season at New Ulm, when they will
cross bats with the Sleepy Eye team.
Bzoski and Reiter will be the battery for
Sleepy Eye.
