Rochester put forth the least enter

several years according to Dr. G. L.

far inferior to that accorded at Port-
land last year, and Dr. Biggers found
a wide-spread desire on the part of
Elks to hold their conventions in the
west hereafter.
After attending the Rochester meat-
ings, Dr. Biggers went to New York

Advanced Methods Used.
Leadbetter & McKennon are apply

much toward providing power. Con

operated by the engine and 14 horses

j the engine does the work. Previous
to the installation of the enirino it re-
quired at least 26 horses to haul the
combine and do the work efficaciously,
