@CRASSHOPPER"
HARVESTER HAS
BEEN RECEIVED
Huge and Complicated Machine
Will Bring In Saw Grass For
Paper Mill

That progress is being made at Lees
burg in the production of paper pulp
from Florida sawgrass, is evident from
the following from a recent issue OF
the Leesburg COMMERCIAL:
At last the harvester, known as the
"grasshopper," has arrived for the
pulp mill, having reached Leesburg
late Thursday night and then trans
ferred to the mill Friday noon.
The "grasshopper" has been in
building for a year and was one of
the most stupendous tasks ever under
taken by any concern. In all the wide,
wide world there is no other piece of
machinery just like it. The harvester
had to be constructed from the blue
print up to the perfect machine and
it sure required master minds to con-
ceive each piece of delicate mechan-
ism and foretell that when placed to-
gether as a perfect unit would do
the work required. 1t was constructed
i'll shop in Pennsylvania, piece by
piece and when completed was assem-
bled and tried. 1t is understood that
at the first trial something did not
work just right and those in charge of
the pulp mill had several parts of the
huge machine made over and readjust-
ed until the harvester became a per-
feet working machine. This is the first
OF several of these machines that will
be built and operated along the lakes
OF Florida cutting the saw grass from
which pulp and paper will be made at
the giant mill on the shores of Lake
Griffin
Two weeks or more ago the grass
hopper left the shop in Pennsylvania
OF three fiat cars with orders for its
quick delivery in Leesburg, and con
sidering the distance and the c0ndi-
tons prevailing in railroad affairs at
the present time the delivery was
prompt and UP to expectations Any
way The grasshopper is at its destina-
ton and the employees of the mill are
busy unloading and getting ii ready
for assembling.
When. the three cars Of the huge ma
chine left the factory they were ali
changed together but because Of re-
pairs necessary on the fiat cars they
arrived in Leesburg separated and
two of them reached the mill some
time before the other.
Prominent men connected with the
mill are authority for the statement
that it will require between two and
three weeks to unload and assemble
the giant grass cutting device. Every
piece must be unloaded 3aparatciy

assembling of the harvester, other-
wise it will not operate in the manner

The Grass Fiber Pulp ard Paper
Corporation has leased in the state OF
Florida over six hundred acres Of saw

cut by the "gra shopper or machine
of this type. The harvester is 50 cor

been given a succe ;sful trial, there is
no doubt that it will do the work that
has been assigned to it.

DIRT CHEAP

Somewhere in your neighborhood, they are building a
house. Go over there, pick a piece o; shining metal out
of a keg, and the carpenter will tell you it's a ~"10-penny
nail" Other nails are ~20penny. 30, 40 and so on.
Penny, - i'm connection with nails, is a measure OF size.
Originally, it designated the price per hundred. Thus a
"10-penny" nail meant one that costs 10 cents a hundred,

The name has lost its old meaning, because today you
can buy the nails ~dirt-cheap. Yet years ago the price was
not considered high, for previously buildings were put to-
gether with hard wooden pegs. Maybe you've noticed
them when an ancient house was torn down.
In the name of the "10-penny nail, !" you have the key
to the whole scheme of modern lfe-cheap prices, made
possible by quantity production.

There is no demand today for bird tongues to tickle the

up in big canning plants or rushed in refrigerator cars BY
fast express.
The price would be extremely low, compared with
Caligula' s time. For instance, a few cents will buy you a

WASHINGTON, April 80. -
| Throughout the winter the Inter-
state Commerce Commission has
been engaged upon an intensive
study of fixing railroad freight rates
to provide transportation for Ameri-
can business at reasonable charges
and at the same time to enable Inc
railroad corporations to earn a fair
return on their investment. h is
a tremendous undertaking. The
commission has heard thousands OF
pages of testimony from experts
representing railroads, shippers in
vestors and the general public. One
of the most difficult problems In
volved is how much the commission
should be guided in fixing rates by
the need of the railroad companies
, for revenue adequate to pay divi-
idends TO their stockholders.
There are two Numerically OPP
| posed schools of thought on the
question of rate making in relation
to return. The railroads maintain
that the commission should consider
the amount of money invested in
railroad property, equipment and
cost of operation and then fix a
rate which will yield a fair return
say 6 c cent-on this capital
sum. They say that they are regu-
lated and not in the free market OF
competition and therefore should
have rates fixed on a basis which
will guarantee earnings.
In opposition, the shippers pre-
Sent some such argument as fol-
lows. A man owns two houses,
| Both cost him $4,000, including land
and building. But one is better
s..-. - -. 4 Aetoa4l ahan elm
other. lie can get a rent of $50 a
month from one house but only $40
a month for the other. After hold
ing them for some time he desires
to sell. Prospective purchasers in
vestigating to learn what these prop
critics were actually worth would
snd out what rent they yielded the
owner. Upon discovering that one
house paid a return of $40 and the
other $50 they would offer a higher
price for the $50 house than the
other.
In other words, the value of a
property must be determined by its
earning power. The rule sought by
the railroads is the reverse, that is,
the earning rate must be fixed ar
bitrarily by the cost of the property.
Commission Must Judge
This gives something of an idea
Of the difficult problems which arise
in connection with rate regulation.
Both sides have their champions.
The commission must decide between
them. To obtain the best available
information, the commission gathers
elaborate data. Such a study re-
