If you hava'125 loads of manure to spread asd you are goinr to plant 25 acres of corn or wheat,
or have a 25 acre meadow we will tell you how you can increase the value of your crop this year
from 14.00 to $8.00 per acre or more than enough to pay for a spreader. We issue, a 48-paee book
entitled "Practical Experience With Barnyard Manures," which explains the whole situation.
Our Plan, is not a theory. It is an actual fact, backed up 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 18.00 per acre.
This Book will be sent tree 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 yon any harm. Write ns now and let us mail
it to yon. It is brimming full of valuable information.

Endless Uprosi ianuro Spreader
Spreads all kinds of manure, straw stack bot
toms andcommercial fertilizer regardless of their
condition. Spreads as muck in a day as is nten
can by hand. Spreads the largest load in 2 to 4
minutes. Makes the same amount of manure go
thrtt times as fi.r and produce better- results;
makes all manure fine and immediately avail
able tor plant life.
Non-BuncKable RaVe forms a hopper, holds
all hard chunks in contact with beater until
thoroughly pulverised.
Endless Apron is one continuous apron, (not
a apron) therefore always retdv to load. You
don't have to drive a certain distance to pull it
hark into Dosition after each load or wind it back
by hand; it is a great advantage in making long
mauls.
There Is no bearing about our Endless Apron
to break and cause trouble, it is always up out
ot the way of obstructions as it does not extend
below axle. Spreads 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 wir.d shield when spreading. It has a
graduating lever and can be regulated tvhile in
motion to spread thick or thin, 3 to as loads per

The Smile

Why not keep that smile on baby's

'For a little while they stood together
In silence. Jim suddenly quitted bis
companion and came back with a glass.
He poised it with the precision of a ;
Bisley marksman and began to speak
again jerkily: I
"Stove in f orrard, above the water ,
line. Wouldn't live two minutes In a
sea. Somethin lyin' in the bows. j
Can't make it out. And there's a'
couple of cormorants perched on the
gunwale. But she'll pass within 200
vards on 'ier present course, an' the j
tide'll hol3 long enough for that."
The othw man looked around. From
that elevated perch, 130 feet above :
high water mark, he could survey a (
vast area of sea. Excepting the ap-;
preaching steamer which would flit
past a mile away to the south and a
few distant brown specks which be-;
tokened a shoal of Penzance fishing'
smacks making the best of the tide
eastward--there was not a sail in
Bight. 1
"I think we should try to get hold I
of her," he said.
Jim kept his eye glued to the tele
scope. " 'Tain't worth it, cap'n. The sal

but what an extry suvrin comes In

useful, an' we might tie her up to the
buoy on the off chance until the relief
comes or we signal a smack. But
what's the good o' talkin? We've got
no boat, an' nobody'd be such a fool as
to swim to her."
"That is what I had in mind."
Jim lowered the glass.
"That's the fust time I've ever heard
you say such a silly thing, Stephen
Brand."
There was no wavering judgment In
his voice now. He was angry and
slisbtlv alarmed.
"Why Is It so emphatically silly.
Jim?" was the smiling query.
"How d'ye know what's aboard of
her? What's them fowl after? What's
under that sail? What's that lyin
crumpled up forrard? Dead men,
mebbe. If they are. she's convoyed by
sharks."
"Sharks! This it not the Bed sea.

"Jones won't hear of it."

within the next minute. Now, don't

directions if needful when T nm in the
water. Have no tsar. 1 am more uiuu
eaual to Leander in a sea like this."
Jim. who trusted to the head keep
er's veto awed, too, by the reference
to Leander, whom he hazily associated
with Captain Webb made no rejoinder.
He focused the telescope again, gave
a moment's scrutiny to the steamer
and then re-examined the boat The
stillness of the morning was solemn.
Beyond the lazy splash of the sea

experienced an anxious watch. Not for
an instant could he forego attendance
on the lamp. Owing to the sleet it was
necessary to keep the light at full pres

He thought nothing or it at tne time.
This was duty. But at Intervals
throughout the rest of his life the sci
atic nerve would remind him of that
lonely watch. This morning he was
convalescent after a painful immobility
of two days.
Watching the boat, Jim centered her
in the telescopic field and looked anx
iovisly for a sharp arrow shaped ripple
on the surface of the sea. The breeze
which had vanquished the fog now
kissed the smiling water into dimples,
and his keen sight was perplexed by
the myriad wavelets.
Each minute the condition of affairs
on. board became more defined. Be
neath some oars ranged along the star
board side he could" see several tins,
suela a,s contain biscuits and compress
ed beef. The shapeless mass in the
bows puzzled him. It was partly cov
ered with broken planks from the dam
aged portion of the upper works, and
it might be a jib sail fallen there when
the mast broke. The birds were busy
and excited. He did not like that.
Nearly half an hour passed. The
Princess Boyal, a fine vessel of yacht
like proportions, sprinting for the aft
ernoon train, was about eight miles
away, sou' west by west. According to
present indications, steamer and dere
lict would be abreast of the Gulf Rock
light simultaneously, but the big ship,
of course, would give a wide- berth to
a rock strewn shoal.
At last the lighthousff keeper heard
ascending footsteps. This was not
Stephen Brand, but Jones. Jim, whose
rare irritated moods found safety in
stolid silence, neither spoke nor looked
around when his chief joined him, bin
oculars, in hand..
