On a stretch of road which had suf-
fered greatly from this cause, heavy
wagons were provided with a sliding
shoe, which was placed under one rear
wheel when descending hill, to fur
nish braking action. The other wheel
revolved and prevented side slip. The
shoe was made of hard wood, surfaced
on the bottom with sheetiron, and pro-
yided with staple, ring and chain, by

Using Tanning Mill as
A lain Making Machine

Brookings, S. Oak, March 25.--one
OF the pest rain-making machines is
the tanning mill, asserts J. g Hutton,
associate agronomist at the state tx
pertinent station. The tanning mill
takes weed seeds out-and weeds are
the greatest of rain.
Matthew Fowlds, seed analyst at the
experiment station, recently found Is
kinds of weed seeds in a wheat sam
pie and one weed seed for every Is
kernels of wheat, ranging from mus
tard to quack grass. There were
about 1903 900 weed seeds in five pecks
of wheat-the amount required to
SOW an acre-enough to have nearly
three weeds for every square foot of
ground. Since weeds are better fitted
TO take water from the soil than other
plants, it is easy to predict the future
of that wheat.

this spring will have more than one
good shower 10 mis- credit il a dry sea-

Col. Theodore Roosevelt, Jr.
Addresses N. Y. Audience

New York. March 21.-Old republic
cans OF New York, who remember
when Colonel Theodore Roosevelt first
appeared upon the political horizon.
were visibly surprised and affected
last night when the colonel's eldest
son, Lieutenant Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt. made his first speech from
the platform at the republican county
committee in Bryant hall.
For an hour Roosevelt held an audi
ence that filed the hall spellbound by
his simple delivery of a tale OF war.
So thoroughly characteristic Of his
father were many Of the speaking me-
thods of the son that oldtimers said
they thought they were listening to
the famous man who broke into poll
tics in New York In the SOS, when he
was a candidate OF the same organiza-
tion for the assembly at Albany.
The younger Roosevelt wove the old
time engaging T. r.. spell, and the
audience, two-thirds of whom were
women, stood up and cheered him
long and loud. After the meeting the
men crowded the women aside in their
efforts to grab the speakers hand and
tell him how much he reminded them
of his dad.

Lockout Here
av Affect
100000 Men
Union Leader Declares the
Builders Action Will
Spread Throughout u. S.

Building construction all over the
United States may be tied up and 2,
100000 men made idle. William j.
Bowen, president of the International
Union of Bricklayers, Masons and
Plastcrers, asserted last night, as a re-
ternoon by tho Building Trades EN-
ployers' Association. The associa
tons refusal to arbitrate differences
with the carpenters. he said, was the
cause of the trouble.
Members Of the association refused
to discuss Bowen's statement. They
admitted that the association had held
a meeting in the afternoon at It's head
quarters. "a West Thirty third Street
but would not say what took place.
Such information, they said, must come
from officers of the association, most
of whom do not live in the city.
More than $4,000 bricklaycrs. ma
sons, plasterers, carpenters and hoist
ing engineers, Brown said, were af
fccted already by the lockout. The inn
mediate response to the employers ac-
ton, he added, would be strike which
would affect 10000 workmen in the
building industries as soon as it was
declared and eventually would make
100000 men idle. The strike would
hit not only the United States, but
Canada, he said
Since November, he said, the car
penters and the employers had been in
dispute invoking strike for higher
wages.
1t was not until considerable in
fuence had been brought to bear on
the governors of the Building Trades
Association, Mr.. Bowen said,
that he and William Dobson, secretary
OF his organization, succeeded in get
ting an audience Monday. The last Of
three conferences ended yesterday
afternoon, he said, with the announce
ment Of the lockout
In giving out his statement of the
matter Mr.. Bowen said that he did SO
in the hope that the public might prove
powerful enough to settle the dispute,
as its interests were vitality concerned.
There was immediate need Of $1,000
600 square feet of floor space below
Fulton Street, he said, and if returns
were to be made on more than $780,
900, 900 invested in new transit lines
there must be millions Of dollars worth
of apartment houses put up in the dis
tricts served by the new lines.
The rentpayer was interested most
seriously in the prospect, he continued,
as the only prospec' cven of stationary
rentals lay in extensive building opera
tions. Returning soldiers were inter
ested, he said, as thousands of them
were counting on jobs on the new build
ings that must be put up.
