EXACT COPY OF WRAPPER. p
if you have 125 loads of manure to spread and you are some to plant 25 acres'ot corn or wheat,
or have a 25 acre meadow we will tell you how you can increase the value ot your crop this year
from 14.00 to 18.00 per acre or more than enough to pay for a spreader. We issued a 48-page book
entitled "Practical Experience With Barnyard Manures," which explains the whole situation, .
Our Plan is not a theory. It is an actual fact, backed pp by actual experiments extending over
a period of 18 years. To give you an idea of what this book contains, we show results of experi
ments made with various crops where 5 loads of manure were spread per acre by the old method,
and 5 loads by the new method, on corn ground. The latter shows a gain of (4.80 per acre. On
another field and in another state, it shows a gain of $5.60 per acre, and on a clover and timothy
meadow, a gain of $8.00 per acre.
This Book will be sent free to anyone writing us. It is worth f 100.00 to yon, bnt it won't cost
yon a cent. If it doesn't do you any good, it won't do you any harm. Write ns now and let us mail
it to yon. It is brimming full of valuable information.

Endless Apron EUanure Spreader
Spreads all kinds of manure, straw stack bot
toms andcommercial fertilizer regardless of 'their
condition. Spreads as much in a day as MS men
can by hand. Spreads the largest load in 2 to 4
minutes. Makes the same amount of manure go
three times as f;.r and produce tetter results;
makes all manure fine and immediately avail
able for plant life.
Non-Bunchable Rake forms a hopper, holds
all hard chunks in contact with beater until
thoroughly pulverized.
Endless Apron is one continuous apron, (not
a H apron) therefore always re idy to load. You
don't have to drive a certain distance to pull it
back into position after each load or wind it back
by hand ; it it a great advantage in making long-
mauls.
There Is no Gearing about our Endless Atron
to break and cause trouble, it is always up out
of the way of obstructions as it does not extend
below axle. Sf reads evenly from start to finish
and cleans out perfectly clean.
Hood and End Gate keeps manure away from
beater while loading ; prevents choking of beat
er and throwing out a bunch when starting and
acts as wind shield when spreading. It has a
graduating lever andean be regulated while in
motion to spread tiich or thin, s to 2S loads per
Liiht Draft because the load is nearly equally
Write just these words on a postal card or in a letter "Send me your book 'Practical Ex

Lincoln's Youih
AND
Early Manhood
By WARD HILL LAMON.
His Friend. Intimate and
Bodyguard
'The next day -was speaking at Ber-,
tin. lie went from my bouse with Dr.
Earnett, the man that had asked me
who this man Lincoln was. I told him
that he was a candidate for the legisla
ture. He laughed and said, 'Can't the
party raise no better material than
that?" I said, 'Go tomorrow and hear
all before you pronounce judgment.
When he came back I said, 'Doctor,
what say you now?" 'Why, sir, said he,
he is a perfect take in. He knows
more than all of them put together. "
Lincoln got 1,376 votes, Dawson
1,370. Carpenter 1,170. Stuart 1464.
Lincoln was at last duly elected a rep
resentative by a very flattering majori
ty and began to look about for the pe
cuniary means necessary to maintain
his new dignity.. In this extremity be
had recourse to an bid friend named.

balanced on front and rear axles. The team Ss
as near the load as it can work. Front and rear
axles are the same length and wheels track;
beater shaft runs in ball and socket bearings,
therefore no friction. Beater is 23 inches in di
ameter, seat turns over when loading. Machine
turns in its own length.
Simplicity. There are only two levers on our
machine. One which raises the hood, locks it
and throws the machine in gear at the same time.
It can then be thrown in and out of gear without
lowering the hood. One lever which changes
feed to spread thick or thin, making it so simple
that a boy who can drive a team can handle it.
Strength and Durability is one of the most
important points to be considered in a manure
spreader. The Great Western has a good, strong.
durable wheel. Extra strong spoke and rim.
heavy steel tires. Strong, well braced box with
heavy oak sill. Oak tongue, hickory doubletrees,
malleable castings, gears and sprockets all keyed
on. Galvanized hood. Every part is made extra
strong, regardless of cot. It is made for the man
who wants the best , made in our sizes, 35, SO,

his name was Smoot. Abe was behind
the counter at the moment; but, hear
ing the name, he sprang over and intro
duced himself. Abe had often heard of
Smoot, and Smoot had often heard of
Abe. They had been as anxious to

disappointed m yon. I expected to see
an old Probst of a fellow." (Probst, It
appears, was the most hideous speci
men of humanity -in -all that country.)
"Yes, replied ; Smoot, "and I . am
equally .disappointed, for I expected to
see a good looking man when I saw
yon."
A few neat compliments like the fore
going laid the foundation of a. lasting
intimacy between the two men, and Is
his present distress Lincoln knew no
one who would be more likely than
Smoot to respond favorably to an appli
cation for money.
"After he was elected to the legisla
ture,' says Mr. Smoot, ''he came to my
house one day in company with Hugh
Armstrong. Says he, 'Smoot, did you
vote for me? I told him I did. 'Well,'
says he, you must loan me money tc
buy suitable clothing, for I want tc
make a decent appearance in the legis
lature.' I then loaned him $200, which
he returned to me according to prom
ise." The Interval between the election
and his departure for the seat of gov
ernment was employed by Mr. Lincoln
partly in reading, partly in writing.
Community of Freethinkers.
The community In which he lived was
pre-eminently a community of free
thinkers in matters of religion, and it
was then no secret, nor has it been a
secret since, that Mr. Lincoln agreed
with the majority of his associates in
denying to the Bible the authority of
divine revelation. It was his honest be
lief, a belief which It was no reproach
to hold at New Salem, Anno Domini
1834, and one which he never thought
of concealing. It was no distinction,
either good or bad, no honor and no
shame. But he had made himself thor
oughly familiar with the writings of
Paine and Volney the "Ruins" by one
and "The Age of Reason" by the other.
His mind was full of the subject, and
he felt an itching to write. He did
write, and the result was a little book.
It was probably merely an extended
essay, but it is ambitiously spoken of
as "a book" by himself and by the per
sons who were made acquainted with
its contents. In this work he intended
to demonstrate '
"First, that the Bible was not .God's
revelation; and,
"Secondly, that Jesus was not .the
Son of God."
No leaf of this little volume has survived.-
Mr. Lincoln carried it in manu
script to the store of Mr. Samuel Hill,
where it was read and discussed. Hill
was himself an unbeliever, but his son
considered this book "infamous." It is
more than probable that Hill, being a
warm personal friend of Lincoln, fear
ed that the publication of the essay
would some day interfere with the po
litical advancement of his favorite. At
all events, he snatched it put of his
hand and thrust It into the fire, from
which not a shred escaped.
