THE FOUR-PER-CENT PROVISION
The United States owes the Oregon
to the 4 per cent provision in the naval
appropriation bill of the year the con
tract with the Union Iron Works was
signed. The provision' was ; simply a
recognition of the well-known fact
that materials and labor are higher on
the Pacific. Coast than in other cities
In the United States.' jlf the, Union
Iron WorksJompany had put in a bid
low enough to . secure j 4he contruct
work, a record that would have been
incomplete had thej Oregon been just
an average battleship! Still, the Nay-
al Committee proposes to economize
to strike out of thej appropriation bill
the 4 per cent provision wTviph placed
Pacific Coast shipyards on an equality,
so far as the cost of construction goes,
with Atlantic Coast i shipyards. San

t The finger bar in which the knife runs is draws from a point in front not plsiied from the
main, frame of the machine. "All other movers pur-h the finger bar more or less, and that is what
reduces the cutting power and makes them dangerous t ride on.- When the finger bar is pushed
much or little- there must b a bar to push it, a push bar. AU front cut mowers have push
bars except the Champion. The Chamj inn ha none. The Champion finger bar is drawn not
pushed in the least.; If a-mower has a push bar it is dangerous to ride upon it, aud it loses cut
ting power when in tough grass, because the tendency is to lift the1 wheels. On other mowers
the finger bar is almost entirely pushed. Some ot.hr mowerj have a small draw rod, but remem
ber they, also have a big. push bar. ALL . SUCH MOWERS ARE PUSH CUT. When the
finger bar of a push cut mower stiikes forcibly a fixed obstruction the inside wheel raises otT the
grouted. Tough grass acts as an obstruction to the cutter Tar, and jwheri'the cutter bar of a pnsh
cut liiQwer is obstructed, however little, the tendency of the wheels is to lift. It is onW when its
obstruction takes the form of a fixed obstacle that the wheels will actually lift clear or the ground,
but the tendency to lift is still there, and tlie tougher the grass the lighter the wheels press on the
