market him hewn constructed along the
same general linea,
1 he John Deero Spreader, however, la
different. It Is entirely new and there u
nothing else like it on the markut.
All the working parts are mounted on
the main axle. There are no strains and (
rtresses on the sides or frame and no
clutrhea or chains to give trouble.
Tho John Deere Spreader is low down,
eaay to load, very Bimple, and always
reudy tor biuiueas. It cannot get out ol
order.

Tower to drive the beater is taken from

planetary transmission (similar to that
used on nutomobileu) mounted oa tUu

Itoht Draft-Few Parts
There are at least two masons why thfl
John Deere ISpreadur
ia the lightest draft
spreader made. One
la that it has four sets
of roller (wirings; two

Roller Bearing and two on the main
axle and beater. They reduce the draft
materially. ,
Another reason is that the John Deere
Spreader haa ho few parts. It has about
150 less types of canting than the sim
plest Rproadcr heretofore made. It Is
only natural that tho fewer parts a ma
chino hua, the easier it will operate.
When the John Deere Spreader U out

Eatiy to Load
The first three feet manure Is lifted with
fin ordinary apreador are oasieat of all.
The real hard work is from this height to
tho top of the ordinary apreador.
Thf .Tnhn Deere Snreadcr is low down.
It in only nucoauary to lilt each forkful

Positive Non-Racino Apron
By the use of a very simple locking de
vice inside tho ratchet toed, the apron is
positively locked against racing when
spreading up hill or over exceedingly
rough ground. The result la that when
spreading with tho John Deere Spreader
the manure is always spread evenly.
This is not possible on any other ratchet
leed spreader made.
Change of Feed
Change of feed is accomplished by a
double shoe which is moved from the seat.
This shoe determines tho numbor of teeth,

from Ave to twouty-live loads to the acre.

THE CALLTO DUTY
"Co-operation in Statesmanship"
New Work of the Grange.
Seoretary Giles of the New York State
Grange Believes That the Farmer
Has an Important Duty to Perform
In Stateoraft.
The, grange was founded to exploit
co-operation. Seeing ngrleulture dimin
ish and wane led tho founders of our
Order to establish an organization that
by a thorough and hearty co-operation
between those of kindred Interests
might ameliorate many of tho advoiA;
conditions that confronted agiicuit.uo.
On that foundation tho grange has
grown until It Is recognized as a power
In the nation. As yet tho Held of co
operation has been but slightly tilled-,
nnd yet the yield iu results has Justi
fied the effort and shown promise of a
most abundant yield when the field
shall have received that careful tillage
and thorough culture to which it Is en
titled.' Co-operation in buying h:is saved
thousands of dollars to the farmers of
Now York state, and yet but a small
per cent of the grange members are
making use of Its good ollices. It is
but an indication of what it may do
and what wo fondly hope It will do.
Co-operation la selling farm products
has not received so much attention or
been the object of. so much thought,
but Is well under way and has a bril
liant and successful future before It.
Co-operntlon In government or states
manship, either through party policy
or public Interest, has had but little
attention, but It Is the promising Held
of future usefulness. Selllsh Interests
within the parties or between the par
tics has controlled, and the result In
state and nation has not been for the
greatest ultimate gond of either state
or mt!o'. rurtvs have been divided
lt;t ) f ictions, and ti e factions have
wrnd uj .i'i each other and forgotten
the ). !i n's . needs. Appropriations
h.-v be il m-'do or withheld not fjf
the sii'te's good, but for the possible
future e!V( t of party or faction of par
ty. Men have risen to pesltion of lead
ership within their party who have de
liberately soM the stale's welfare to
maintain tlHr pi itions of leadership,
forgettlivr t'-e s ::'!'".V.'..v great princi
ples that Ik d their party together and
profeniti'.- t b le -i'"is of a defeated
party rather than factors in a success
ful party. True statesmanship Ignores
these tactics aii.l.loyks rather to the
public goVil even though another purty
gets the credit.
In the Inst presidential contest
three principal parties contested for
tho leadership, and of course but one
could win. The winner, while he
might not have been your choice or
mine, was nevertheless the chosen
lender and Is entitled to the support
und good wishes of every right think
ing citizen of any party. President
Wilson in his Inaugural address used
words that proclaimed him the states
man. They were a bid for the hearti
est co-operative support of all. His
inaugural address was not a boast of
party success or an exploitation of "my
policies," but, ruthor, in modest and
unpretentious words, a dedication of
self to a great work. In that address
he used these words: "I summon all
honest men, all patriotic men and all
forward looking men to my side, and,
God helping me, I will not fall them
If they will but council and sustain
me." This, my friends, Is an Invita
tion to you to forget the strife of party
supremacy and co-operate with him In
the great and important work he hag
in hand. Purely we all like to be
classed In one or the other of these
lists. Let us deserve it, then, by a
hearty aeeep'uuce of his invitation
and, in so far as It Is lu us, demon
strate the lower and efficiency of true
co-operation in statesmanship.
Oh. that the fact of our country's
peril and our country's needs may
produce such an Impression upon every
thoughtful citizen as shall lead to
the loftiest action iu the use of every
power to defeat those who desire to
succeed in nothing but subversion of
good government! In this magnificent
work the farmer has an Important part
to enact, und the grange, the director
of the farmer's thought, should add to
its other branches or co-operative effort
tho co-operation of statesmanship not
to wrest the power from other worthy
Interests, but to co-operate with them
should be our highest motive. What a
noble mission to reproduce statecraft
nnd reinstate "'statesmen 1 .
Farmers, there stauds before us an
opportunity to become an important
factor as saviors and builders of our
nation. Shall we not, then, rcalinlng
this high prerogative, bend our every
effort to the establishing of this high
est and noblest type of true co-opera-tlon-the
co-operation of statesman
ship? W. N. GILES.
A 6,500 Pound Cheese.
On July 10 a cheese weighing 6,500
pounds was made at the Gowdy cheese
factory In the town of,,Martlnsburg,
N. Y. Two days' milk from the Gowdy
cheese factory and the Houseville fac
tory was required for the mammoth
cheese. The cheese will be exhibited at
the state fair at Syracuse and Is the
largest one ever manufactured In New
York state.
When young Mrs. Marshall came to
I, knowing thut the start one makes
socially in a place counts for a good
deal, she made herself agreeable to
every one, became familiar with only
the best, was careful that her costumes
were cut In the lutcst fashion, and,
since the dominant circle admitted of
cavaliers for their prominent members,
she rather encouraged the attentions
of Huntington Dabney.
It must be admitted that keeping
Mr. Dabney up to his duties as her
cavalier was hard work. His main ac
complishment was leading a cotillion,
and he was not known to have any
secondary one. Mrs. Marshall could
stand to be put in a struitjacket cos
tume and listen to society gossip, in
cluding private quarrels and the mis
hap of the last social climber who had
fallen from an upper round of the lad
der to the bottom, but found It tire
some, Indeed, to pretend to be flirting
with Huntington Dabney in a solitary
corner at a function hi order to main
tain a reputation for being one of those
ladles to whom husband and children
are a bore. And it was the harder for
her because she was devoted both to
her husband and her children. As for
Mr. Marshall, she told him in the be
ginning what her designs really
amounted to, but he didn't take suffi
cient interest in the matter to remem
ber the explanation.
Among the other penalties Mrs. Mar
shall must pay for effecting an entrance
into L. society was the sitting In tight
slippers for several hours at dinnerpar
ties. Her feet were tender, and for
this reason her footwear was made of
light material, but even silken slippers,
made very small, binding the feet for
hours on a stretch, will at last cause
pain. It was sitting thus at a dinner
party for an unusually long period that
brought about a mishap to Mrs. Mar
shall that came very near plunging her
to the foot of the social ladder and
rendering her fall so unfortunate that
she would not have been able to begin
to climb again.
At the dinner in question Mr. Dab
ney was assigned to take Mrs. Mar
shall out, Mr. Marshall having been
honored by being assigned to the host
ess. Mrs. Marshall's shoe pinched, and
after enduring a long period of suffer
ing she slipped it oft. Mr. Dnbney,
who was a restless man, must needs
kick his legs about under tho table till
he sent the slipper off to parts un
knowa When at last the innumera
ble courses bad been finished and a
pousse cafe put a close upon the feast
the diners arose to go into another part
of the house for a cotillion.
Mrs. Marshall, who bad for some
time been feeling with her toe for the
missing slipper, finding that without
some expedient she must go with the
others in a stocking foot so to speak,
when the party were rising, kept her
seat, talking very hard to her cavalier,
pretending to be so wrapt in her sub
ject as not to notice the movement
Of course the gentleman kept his seat,
too, and was all attention. The lady
watched out of the corner of her eye
the retiring guests and saw that no
especial notice was taken of her re
maining behind. As soon as the oth
ers were all gone she Informed Mr.
Dabney that she had lost her slipper
under the table and had lagged behind
to recover it Dabney started to get It
himself, but the lady stopped blm and,
getting down, groped for the missing
article. It was dark down there, and
Mrs. Marshall was nearsighted. She
hunted some time without success.
Then Mr. Dabney's gallantry got the
better of his discretion, and down he,
too, went under the table to help.
The host had scarcely left the dining
room before he proposed that the men
return for a pony brandy. Several of
the ladies whose heuds were not easily
overturned by spirituous beverages de
clared that they, too, wanted "anoth
er." Suddenly the dining room door
was thrown open, and a merry party
entered. Mrs. Marshall, realizing the
horror of the situation of being caught
under the table with her cavalier,
whispered to him:
"For heaven's sake be still!"
Mr. Dabney obeyed orders. What
else could he do? The host poured the
liquor and all were standing around
the table ready to drink when those
under It heard him say:
"What the deuce became of Dabney
and Mrs. Marshall? They didn't leave
the dining room with the rest of us."
"They must have gone out by anoth
er door," suggested one of the women.
"Drink her down," said the host,
"and we'll go and look for them. Thej
must have gone up that stairway. I
don't allow any scattering In my
house." he added Jocularly.
The revelers tossed off the brand)
and ran laughing up the staircase
As soon as the last one had disap
peared Mrs. Marshall scrambled out
and ran like a deer to an unoccupied
music room, followed by Mr. Dabney
with the slipper. Then Mrs. Marshall
sat down to a piano and began to run
over the keys. This brought those
who bunted for them, and all ex
claimed: "How did you do it?"
When Mrs. Marshall that night be
fore going to bed told her husband of
the narrow escape she had bad he
looked at ber in holy horror.
"Great Scott, mummy," be exclaim
ed, "that's the nearest thing to a catas
trophe that ever happened in this fam
ily I"

other places needing light. Electric

electric lamps can be located in any
place, thus affording any desired dis
tribution of light.
No other lamps possess these qual

that electric lamps are rapidly replac
