Coal Ships in Half
Hour with Machine

Philadelphia, Oct. IS. UNITED
Jress.)-Foreign ocean-going vessels
are taking advantage of the automatic
coal loading machine which has been
installed at the Greenwich Point piers
here. The system is borrowed from
the plan in use on the Great Lakes,
where iron ore is handled and ship
ped quickly and cheaply. By this
method of coaling an ordinary sea.
going craft can be coaled in less than
half an hour. where 1t formerly took
several days.
Fifty railroad tracks, forming a
network and capable of holding l..
900 cars of coal are built around the
machine. The cars, specially con-
structed, wait on the siding until yes.
sci is ready to coal. Each car passes
through concrete, steam heated
thawing shed which is used for thaw.
ing coal in winter. Released from the
thawing sted. the cars glide down a
slight incline and up another where
they are clamped to the rails. A huge
platform. resembling an elevator, au.
tomatically places itself inuto posi-.
tion OF an acute angle. The coal is
permitted to run from the car, onto
the platform and into V-shaped
bowl which connects 1t with a chute
from the hold OF the ship.
The bumper was built at n cost
of approximately 100000 and is the
only one in this section of the United
States. Foreign vessels alone spend
s1,OoO.o00 monthly for coaling sup.
plies here.

by mere men. There is large
opportunity to market Pacific
Coast Stock in the east, but this
trade must be supplied with
grown or partly grown pullets
and male stock, as the distance *
too great to send chicks. Nashon
Island will have to produce Il sur
plus Of pulIets and male stock if
we take full advantage Of our
opportunities.
" No argument is needed in clos
ing TO show that we must work
together and boost Nashon Island
stock consistently If the oppor-
tmitics outlined above are grasp
ed. The business which any pro-
Queer can hereafter secure on Va.
,hon Island will in my judgment
be negligible factor as compared
with outside business, with the
possible exception Of the sale Of
male stock by the few in a posi-
lion to sell such stock Of requisite
quality. Any attempt to secure
business by knocking the other
fellow is not only a sure business
loser to the person who INDUCES

COVE COMMENTS

While in Seattle the other day
we went to the Union Glass A..
theatre, a nice little show with
good music. The play was Mary
Pickford in "Suds." Without IA
doubt it was well acted, the locale
being the east end of London with
typical scenes and true cockney
surroundings and speech, but
some how it did not seem natural
to see Mary taking the part of a
shabby little ignorant last ender.
1t kind of reversed ones notions
of American Sweetheart, and in
her character of Suds, she Ger
tainly looked anything but pretty
and inviting, but the play was
good and worth seeing.
It's always interesting to re-
ceive a paper from the cid home

thing progressive such as estab-
fishing our own statesmen in the
English market was proposed we
were met with the rejoinder from
the president that our organiza-
ton was not in existence for bust
ness. so all we could do was to
discuss methods of growing and
ignoring the vital questions of dis
tribution for our financial benefit.
The new federation has at last
come into being for thai very pur-
pose, headed by Il level headed
progressive grower. in ol,cr times
ships had figure heads very orna,
mental but not Of the slightest
use and so il was. the fashion in
the islands to have some old retir-
ed general or colonel for a figure
head who had not the slightest
interest in the welfare of the
workers and who only accepted
the position for a little cheap
glory. But the world is not
standing still even in old Guern-
scy and so the progressives are on
the move there as elsewhere.
