Recent Discovery Made in California
Has Given Archeologists Some
Food for Thought.

Examination by Prof Oliver NJ.
Washburn of six coins discovered in
canyon of the foothills back Of
Berkeley, CAL, and described by him
as being of undoubted antiquity, has
stimulated the belief of archeolo-
gists that the ruins of an ancient city
exist in that locality. Antiquarians OF
the University of California, where
Professor Washburn is assistant in the
department of classical archaeology,
favor making excavations in an effort
to determine the existence of impor-
tant evidence as to the early history
of this continent
The coins were discovered by Ches-
ter X. Frost, an Oakland shipbuilder.
While on trip he was digging in the
canyon when he uncovered mis-
shapen copper coin. He prosecuted
his work and was rewarded with five
pieces of copper, unquestionably mint
ed by hand, according TO Professor
Washburn. and containing inscriptions
in Greek and Latin. Two Of the coins
DiuShCilCu ItCOSlllIlOn ny
the action of the elements, but through
their irregular shape and general mint
ing are described ss antedating the
oldest known Roman coins.
The coins are family embossed with
the facial contours of divinities or leg
endaries in tempered copper. Coin ex-
perts advance the opinion that the ma
terial used fixes remote period Of
manufacture, because tempered copper
in coin manufacture IS more or less
forgotten art.
One of the coins is about the size of
dime and bears certain resemblances
to early PhOenician money, which bore
the characteristic enclosing of wOm-
ans head.
One version advanced is that the
Berkeley coins were brought to the
California coast by Phoenician colo
nists who preceded the early padres
to the bay district.

which represents the cost of a small
22-inch separator, with clOver-seed
attachment, the power being furnished
by a 1924 farm tractor. These farms
aggregate 400 acres of small grain,
little outside thrashing for hire being
done each year. Last year $500 bush
els of oats, 1000 bushels of wheat and
100 bushels of clover seed were
thrashed. The ordinary crew was
made up of five men, with teams and
wagons TO haul bundles; two men,
with 125-bushel wagon beds to haul
grain three miles; one man to manage
the outfit. and a boy to help. Bundle
wagons were used TO replace two or
three field pitchers, while the use of
a gas engine also dispenses with the
water boy. The engineer has time TO
help considerably about the separator.
With this small force this outfit was
able to thrash and deliver to the ele-

of approximately $50 bushels of wheat

Smaller Units Favored.

During the last two or three years
the number of thrashing outfits sold to
farm organizations has greatly in
creased. and the tendency at present
is toward the formation of smaller CO.
operative units and the purchase of
small outfits. This comes from the ne
cessity for more economical use of
labor and the advent of the farm trac-
tor, the power of which can be well
utilized to run small thrasher.
which, complete with wind stacker,
self-feeder and weigher, costs about
81 200. Most of the farmers clubs are
small. so that all members may get
their thrashing finished in about fif-
teen days. All thrashing is completed
in seasonable time, so that the grain
may be saved to best advantage.
Advantage of Rings.
There are two general methods of
ring cooperation, the most common in
volving the hiring of thrashing out
fit, the other its purchase.
Thrashing rings are beneficial mas
much as the thrashing calendar in
neighborhood may be so arranged that
the work can be carried out with the
least possible loss of time in moving
from farm TO farm. AS job nears
completion the first men through.
knowing their assignments in the next
place, may go there Immediately and
have the grain ready to thrash by the
time the outfit arrives and is set up.
No time is lost either in contracting
for an outfit or in securing a thrash
ing crew. Certain men may be used
to best advantage by assigning them
to one kind OF work for the season.
Unless the weather man prevents
thraShing continues until all the jobs
are completed in the circle. and thus
little extra work is required in shift
ing wagon boxes or hay leaders. Usu-
ally the thrashing season is greatly
shortened and this favors the timely
completion OF the subsequent fall
work. such as blowing. seeding, dis
tributing manure. and so on. The
thraShing ring reduces the work of the
housewife, as there are less men TO
