Mr.. Pfeifer Of Minneapolis, MINI,
is the inventor of a most wonderful
machine for extracting great values
from straw and other vegetables that
has been waste matter for the last
century. The inventor would like to
interview capital in your locality to
manufacture the machines at your
closest point.
The inventor also has a miniature
machine that can be demonstrated
that such production is correct as
stated. One ton of straw would light
and cook for an ordinary farm house,
if it was made into gas, for seven
months. The estimate shows that one
ton of straw will make 10000 cubic
feet of Illuminating gas, and other valu.
able by-products which are not taken
into consideration at the present time.
Furthermore, the machine has its sim.

they have accepted other inconveni-
ences and burdens and the previous
personal losses which are parts of the
price that the nation is periodically
paying for world liberty.
"In considering these increases, one
vital distinction which makes them
fundamentally different from any ever
proposed or allowed when the rail-
ways were under private control, has
been understood This distinction is.
that there is no way in which the
present increases will fnure to private
profit. If they turn out to be more:
than are needed to meet the great
exigency. they will promptly be rel
adjusted so as to prevent any unneces-S
sary burden upon the public; but pend:
ing such readjustment the excess iE
any will be for the benefit of the peo-s
pie of the United States as a whole.
and not for the benefit of the private.
railroad owners or any of them.
''To the extent that savings can be:
effected and to the extent that rel
duced prices for the things railroads
must buy can be realized, it will be
the purpose of the director general to-
make from time to time appropriate
