Think of it This very can Of torna-
toes which the grocer's boy just left at
your kitchen door, literally represents
modern miracle! No other country in
the world equals the United States in its
wonderful accomplishments in the pro-
duction of canned foods And this applies
to quality as well as quantity. Incident
ally, no other country compares with
our own in the consumption of canned
foods. To oguard closely, therefore, the con-
ditions surrounding their manufacture,
is service which the Gamers of America
gladly render to the people of America.

BAD CABLE SERVICE
New York Commercially

The Merchants Association of New
York has received 161 statements
from prominent business houses re-
garding the cable service, of which %
said that it was satisfactory and 1879
registered complaints of its charac-
ter. The service to England and Lat
in America showed some improvement
but cables passing over Great Britain
were reported as subject to extreme
and unexplainable delays.
In most of the serious complaints
the censorship appears to be at the
root of the trouble Several specific
instances are given to prove this
charge. In the Oriental service, by
way of Europe, messages have been
sent out and multilated beyond recog-
milton and could only be understood
when confirmation arrived by mail

LESS STRESS ON BAD
POINTS OF TRACTORS

Several hundred tractor owners in
the Dakotas were asked these ques-
tons:
What do you find to be the princi-
pal advantages of the tractor for farm
work."
What are its principal disadvant-
ages?"
The replies received have been sum-
married. in Farmers Bulletin 1885,
just published by the Department of
Agriculture.
Saving in time, making it possible
to cover the desired acreage within
the proper season, is put first among
the advantages by large percentage
Of the farmers. Other advantages
mentioned are:
Ability to do thorough work. espe-
cially in hot weather, when horses are
at disadvantage.
Saving in man labor, doing away
with more or less hired labor and en-
abling one man to farm larger acre
age than he can with horses.
Economy.
This last advantage is mentioned by
larger percentage of Dakota farmers
than of farmers in other States where
similar investigations of the tractor
have been made This is doubtless be-
cause the cropping system followed in
the Dakotas in such that the tractor
can be used to advantage for more of
tile farm work than in most other
parts of the country.
The principal disadvantage of the
tractor, according to the reports made
by these farmers, is its injurious effect
on moist soil This difficulty is a SER
ious one in districts where the soil is
heavy and where it is necessary to do
considerable amount of work in
early spring.
Difficulty of operation seems to
rank next as a disadvantage. large
percentage of farmers emphasized it.
Other disadvantages mentioned are
expense of operation, undue increase
in investment, and delays on account
of engine trouble
In comparing the reports upon
which this bulletin is based with those
obtained from tractor owners in var
ious parts Of the corn belt severa,
years ago 1t appears that less stress
is laid upon the disadvantages of the
tractor in the recent reports than in
the older ones.

San vuentin Prison, the California
state penitentiary. San Quentin holds
felons convicted in the Superior Court

Thus the new Lytell production will

and the corridor between.
AS in most modern prisons, the In
mates of San Quentin do not wear
stripes, with the exception of men who
are forced to don them as punishment
for an attempt to escape or any other
serious infraction of the rules. In
such instances the culprits wear ver-
teal stripes instead Of those running
around the body, as in the old days at
Sing Sing.
The regulation convict garb is a
suit of rough grey material, with bro
gans and a peaked cap. The convict's
number is stencilled on the back of
the coat and the visor of the cap. IL

Hillsboro, March 24-Hillsboro was
given another shock Sunday when
word was received at the Highland
County Sheriff's office that Harley
Cluff, farmer, was missing from his
home near the town.
With the killing OF Mrs. Charlotte
Barnes and John Moses, and the sui
eide of Harry Lovett fresh in mind,
the receipt Of this news caused many
citizens to urge immediate steps to
find the man.
Searching parties were organized
quickly. One of these groups found
Cuffs body, face downward, about
100 yards from the farmers home.
He had been Ill with influenza for
more than week and early Sunday
morning rose from his bed and left
his home. The Coroner found that he
had come to his death from exposure,
superinduced by influenza.
