In, his let ter of transmittal, Majof Shipley says that the discipline .of the Home during the period covered by the report has been satisfactory, and comparauvely few ' punishments have been imposed, the men being well cared for' and con siderately treated, and that there is no ground for the perry grumbling and fault-findinso often met with in in stitutions ot nice jnaracier. ahc pci sonal treatment of. the men, the . food, clothing, hospital and niedical servfeee are believed to he eoUal to those main tained ' in the National Home for dis abled volunteer soldiers. In comment- Ir.er uoon the furniture, he states that the old bedsteads; being of the woolen varletir and having been !n -nse for sc'.-eral years, have; become very much dilapidated and unfit for use. especial ly the springs, and urges that the Home be provided with iron bedsteads With adjustable spring mattresses -it o'K-e, "One of the most pressing needs of the Institution." he says, fand the one ever present, is for a better water sup pi), and the conditions are constantly ere win? worse."

The iast yeV.r has been an eventful oue in the plow business especially here in the West for that how far famed Beniciaj Hancock Disc Plow has set every jobber, every retail man and every manufacturer at his wits' en J to try to get out something th.it could by some manner of means overtake it. and get a slice of the enormous trade that the Benieia Plow has1 created. They'll never do it. . . They're a little too slow. The Hancock Disc Plow-, of which the Behicia is thej very best type, was hot the result of a moment's work of some nan's brain, but the , outgrowth, of painstaking wiork and effort, covering years of toil atvd expensive experiment, which finally culminated in a plow that w-ould.do satisfactory work on level ground, underj ordinary conditions. It was then taken up by several manufac turers In different sections of the coun try, and licensed rights obtained by them to build he plow, and to add iny features of their own that they saw fit. There are now United States five such licenses in the and Canada, each one having a certain prescribed territory and making ahd, selling, plows in that territory, andjthat alone. . Then there Is an occasional other man who thinks he can make" at few plows, stealing an Idea or two from the Uarfcock. 'and sell them on the reputation of the llain iH k. The courts hae settled one or two of these chars to their sorrw, and there are Injunction; i?ow after what remains. It reu'ily was jtoo bad to bother them, for their freak plows ha'd atrendy work ed their own doom. - I , Baker & Hamilton boiisht the.Hirhts for the entire Coast, and have t taken the Hancock Plow In its oriRinaf state and adapted it;to the "dobe" and samly soils of California, the "red hills" and the valleys of Western Oregon, and the . rolling fields ofi Eastern Oregon, Wash ington and Id;ho, making a jHww" that works on the level and bit the j steep hillsides, the rocky land and the clear, and also the deepest, heaviest, cleanest'' cut plowing, wijt'h the least draft of. any plow -that's eveir apieared in the ifieMs. It took time-so do most good thlnir ' . It took brains they have them to sp-trr. It 'took moneys they had a little." It "took patience and persistence they seem to have 'had then?.
