LOCAL MAN GETS PATENT


w. A. Moore, of this city, has
been granted patent on minnow
pail which through its splendid inn
provements has made quite hit
with fishermen, throughout the
state. Last year several of the
pals were manufactured at the
Wedge Hardware. However, hand
work was too slow, hence the Far
well Oman Kirk & Co, of st
Paul, has taken over the manufac.
ture Of the pail and the sales
have been increased to a very
large extent. This minnow pail has
many improvements not embodied
in the old pals and having an air
chamber will not sink in the wat
er. It is made in one solid piece
and will not come apart and when
thrown in the water will float up
side down, allowing the minnows
plenty of oxygen and natural ac-
ton. It is without doubt the hand
lest article of its kind on the mar
ket today and will no doubt, prove
q lucrative find for Mr.. Moore.
