Baling Machine Salvages Barbed Wir,

How the vast system of barbed
wire that has been pounded into Eur
ope's battle fields and doubly entang-
led by tank and shell, might ultimate
ly be removed, has been the subject of
much speculation. The British war
Office estimates that at least 100000
tons of wire are rusting in its lines
alone. The salvage committee. how
ever, is cleaning it up at considerable
speed with the help Of special bal
ing machine, illustrated in the Sep
TENDER Popular Mechanics Magazine.
A IL LIZ hip. engine, on motor truck,
operates the machine on a trailer. A
heavy wire rope, armed with numer-
Gus hooks, drags the barbed wire
through to sets of rollers, which re-
duce the mass first to 48 by AZ by IL
in, and then to 48 by IL by IL in. A
powerful ram then brushes the bundle
into a compact cube of IL in, weigh
ing 70 or 80 lbs. The first machine
used in the field made 80 cubes in an
hour.

THE OWOSSO TIMES
EDMUND o. DEWEY. PROP.
OwOsso, MICH. SEPT. 10, 1919.

Pursuant to the high-handed policy
of the State Department, adopted to-
ward all those seeking to go abroad
nine months after the signing of the
armistice, James H. Maurer and A.
Epstein, members of the Pennsylvania
Old Age Pension Commission, sent by
the legislature of their state to Europe
to study old age pension systems, were
forcibly removed from the Lapland
three minutes before that vessel sail
ed. Their baggage went on without
them. They knew nothing of the
causes Of the outrage. Senators Knox
and Penrose have been appealed to.
The two men are understood to have
incurred the ire of the Department
because, as labor men, they had pre-
viously sought to cross the ocean to
consult their fellow laborites in Eur
ope. Application for the new pass
ports was made three weeks before
the effort to sail and was granted by
the State Department. They carried
letters from Governor Sproul and 9TH
ers to Premier Lloyd-George and
President Poincaire.

WILSON is GREATEST
Observation-Disclosures

"The campaign Of 1920 will be the
hardest fought ever" said Gerritt j.
Diekema, in stirring call to arms at
Grand Rapids recently. "The present
incumbent of the White House is the
greatest politician ever produced by
the Democratic party, and so insinu-
ating are his addresses, so adriotly
couched in the most perfect English,
that time after time he has gained a
victory when defeat of his ideas SEEM
ed certain.
"Not only is the president the
greatest politician, but he is the most
successful progapandist in the worlds
history. No administration in the
history of the country has been so
strictly partisan as the present. Pol
itics were adjourned for the war by
the president, but the smooth-run-
ming machine which he had built up
did not adjourn, and every position of
Importance went to party supporters,
said Mr.. Diekema.
During the war no more splendid
backing could have been given the
president than was given him by the
Republican congressman, and then he
appealed to the country to defeat
those who had given him the most 10y
al support and give him nothing but
Democrats with whom to work."

FINE CORN CROP is
SURE FOR MICHIGAN

East Lansing, September TO-
That Michigan farmers will harvest
an unusually fine corn crop this year
is the opinion of Prof. j. F. Cox,
head of the Farm Crops Department
at M. A. c., who points out that fav-
orable weather has brought bright
prospects to all corn growing sections
of the State. Adverse conditions have
resulted in poor crops for several
years, but corn seems to have proved
a success this season.
"The fine crop gives an unusual OPP
portunity for selection of good seed
corn this year." says Professor Cox,
"and many farmers of the State will
take advantage Of the opportunity to
improve their varieties. The best
time TO make this selection is in the
fall before heavy freezes come, usu-
ally in late September or early Octo-
Der. BY going into the field and Sc
lecting good ears from the best stalks,
growers can improve the strain of
their corn greatly.
"Corn is Michigan's most valuable
crop, and efforts TO improve the vari-
cites will add greatly to the wealth of
tn State. The old rule of '1ike begets
like" works out thoroughly with corn,
and the farmers who take pains to
improve their seed stock will gain both
increased interest in their work and
added profits.
"In the field in the fall is the only
time to select seed, and many Michi-
gan growers are planning to take ad-
vantage of the seasons splendid crop
in making careful selections for next
springs planting.
