Jennings.) rt Last October Mr. Theodore H.:01 Rice, of New York, invited the i'" American Cotton Manufacturers' As-1 sociation to appoint some one from ^ the membership of the Association c* to go with himself and a party of , ei ladies and gentlememn from New j cr York and New England to Texas Oklahoma, for the purpose of wit- i nessing field and shop demonstra- i P' tions of the Price-Campbell cotton 0> picking machine. Your honorable icc owciary ?ent me tne appointment, | tn which was accepted. ial l0 I went to St. Louis, there joining j the party at the Terminal Hotel, j Saturday atfernoon, October 15th, We left St. Louis that evening1 at about 8 o'clock, stopping the si next night at Mesquite, Texas, a K* ?m-..ll town about seven miles from w Dallas. The following morning the in party was driven out to the planta- ?1 tion of Mr. Schuyler B. Marshall, ra where we saw the first demonsrtu- j ft tion of the machine. A large crowd j Pi had assembled; the machine was I promptly put into operation, mov- Me ing down and directly over the cot-, O ton row, being guided by a man Pi sitting on a comfortable seat above cl the fore part of the machine; it P moved along about as fast as the tl average man walks. The crowd fol- tl lnwo/1 t ho -- *' ? ?V? U>v mo^iiiaie LiUBCiy U J) till Q down the rows of cotton, and I not- t* ed very closely the operation of the b< machine and the effects upon the P growing plants. At the time of the tl demonstration the plant had not h been touched by frost, was very e green and contained a good supply 1 n of open cotton. 1 had gone on the | ti trip right reluctantly, feeling that I ! P would of necessity have to make a,b report which would be condemna- o tory of the machine, as I had always believed this accomplishment;! one of the mechanical impossihili- T ties. The operation of tthe machine t was an "eye-opener;" it did the o work far better than 1 had expect- n Pfl f.hf? fnttnn ivlol/n/l ...Jtho..# r? visible injury to the plant; not even v were the open blossoms damaged; a 1 did not see a bloom or a green p boll fall to the ground. The open cotton was nearly enDrely cleaned| ii from the stalk by the machine and t at the rate of about five hundred o pounds per hour, with only one b cian operating It. fi The machine has the appearance * of a large automobile, and Is drlv- a en bj a 30-bonjs power gasoline mo- tl tor, which seemed to supply ample power tor the purpose intended. * 'he cotton picker, a3 stated before, loves down directly over the plant, ud has in front a V-shaped guide, 'hich slightly compresses the plant s it passes along, bringing the 'hole within reach of the lltttle teel fingers; these fingers are the lost ingenious part of the machine; tiere are about three hundred of tiese on each side of the center f the picker; they are about eight :> ten inches long, by about ouejurth inch diameter at the hub nd, tapering to a point about oneighth inch diameter; they revolve ery rapidly and have a faculty of loving backward out of the branch9 of the plant at the same speed as tie machine moves forward; this irgely explains how these numerous Leel fingers can thoroughly search very inch of space within the plant >rm without tearing and otherise damaging the plant ittself. The nger has a row of teeth, very j luch the same as saw teeth, Tuning from end to end, but covering iterly only one-fifty of the surice; this finger, turning to the ght engages any lint which it >mes in contact with, and releases when it reverses its motion on i ie back stroke; thus released, the >tton is delivered onto a belt consyor, there being one on each side ! the machine; these conveyors .ke it to a large canvass basket at ie rear of the machine, a basket iing 011 both sides, and two sides me uiiicuine are identical in all | spects, which makes it necessary | at the Bteel fingers should pene-' ate more than half way through1 ie plant form. We saw the ootton picked on iWr. arshall's plantation, weighed and aded in several wagons; this was arked for identifocation by the embexB of the party, and the drivs were directed to go to the large urray Ginning Company at Dallas, ur car was soon attached to a issing train, which took us to alias; we went immediately to the n, and about the same time the aded wagons arrived; the cotton as identified by our party, and as then driven under a gin's sueon conveyor, and delivered to the , eaning machine, thence to the i us and to the press; we witness-; i all the detftilo ft ? ?" ? .wwi.y me I ittou from seed to bale ready fori arket. When the cotton. was baled id rolled on the platform, , we j iok samples from a_Yl four sides; i le consensus of / opinion was that ie cotton classed strict Middling; ^ew YorVc Classification.) ''ue next demonstration was at' .e Dallas Fair Grounds; the j round encircled by the race track i as planted in cotton, which was j ;ady for picking; here we saw two! f the Price-Campbell cotton pickig machines in active operation, o much interest was manifested in lese machines, the field was enosed by wire fence, and gate-keep s employed to keep back the | owds. Here 1 S5LW another me-1 lanical picker in operation; it was >rse-drawn and worthy cH but issing notice; the horeea appeared rerloaded, aad a great deal of >tton was left on the ground as ie machine passed; the plant was so injured considerably. 1 di<l not arn the name of the machine or s promoters. This demonstration at the Dallas air Grounds was an impressive ght; many native farmers had ithered there and a good many ere admitted to the cotton field,' l order that they might see the j jeration of the machine at closer | mge; 1 talked with a number of I lem, and every one pronounced the j icker a success; the only criticism i beard was the amount of green j af which was picked along with le cottton;; this was for the most art, eliminated by one process of eaning at the gin. I talked to Mr. rice and Mr. Campbell concerning lis feature, and was informed that ley had perfected an attachment > the picker which would take out ike out this leaf as the cotton was j eing picked; they have not yet aplied this attachment. If this louble is overcome the machine is n asset with which cotton produc-1 rs throughout the South will of ecessity have to reckon in the fuLire. With these mechanical cotton ickers in universal use, there will e a very great increase in acreage c 1 tunuu, After spending a few days at I hillas, our party went to Dalworth, 'exas, wnern we saw another of he Price-Campbell cotton pickers in peration; this demonstration was ot unlike those we saw at Meaquitei nd iJallas; the machine operated rlthout a hitch, picking the cotton t the rate of about 500 pounds er hour. We then went to Vernon, Texas, ii the edge of the Panhandle dis-, rict; here we were to have seen an-J ther of the machine in operation, ut were disappointed, a heavy rain Ailing all day; from this place, we rent to Oklahoma City, but were gain disappointed by rain. I left tie party at this place. Your representative was treated ritli every conceivable courtesy by \ Messrs. Price and Campbell, and wlBhea on this occasion to again express his appreciation, and to declare bis faith in the machine which these two gentlemen have developed. BOY OP 14 CANNOT GET BEYOND PRIMER. Want* to liive Among Animals, aiul So He Will Be Sent to a Farm. Public School No. 3 in New York has an unusual problem. It is a boy, Joseph Maggio, sound and healthy, who either congenially can, not or perseverely will not learn anything. At fourteen he is still reading in j the primer, knows scarcely the simI pleat arithmetic, and in manners i and conduct is entirely wild and incorrigible. j Principal Wade has had to remove him from classrooms, where his untamed actions demoralized the pupils, and take him to the principal's room, where, under his own eye he seeks to compel the boy's attention to study.

"The Children's Court sent him to the Catholic Protectory in Broome street for truancy," said Assistant Principal Court yesterday. "He does not play truant any more but continues unmanageable and unteachable. He boasts to the boys of staying out till 3 in the morning. In classroom he puts his feet on the desk and swears at the teachers. We could have him expelled, but we want to do something for him before he goes out into the world." His elder sister, Innocencia, said: "Joe is not a bod. boy. He is just a dummy. He can scarcely write his name, yet his litttle sister, aged eight, wins honors at school and is far beyond him. "He wants to work on a farm and be among animals. So we will send him to his father next month, who is farming at Milton, N. Y." lOH I>. PAYS TEN DOIJjARB. That is the Tux on His Personal Property in Ohio. Cleveland, Ohio, June 2.?Tax returns from Precinct C, East Cleveland, have landed in the County Auditor's office. Precinct C is where John D. Rockefeller lives. John D. Reports just $1,000 ' worth of personal property. The tax he will have to pay on it under the new State law is $10. Last year Rockefeller returned t a -i ao ??it - * * Tu,iuv wuriu ui personal enects from Forest Hill. What happened to the odd $4,100 worth since 1910 is not explained in Assessor A. T. Goff's report. Six valuable horses at $25 each and two handsome . cows at the same price, and eight carriages at t $200 each, two pianos at $150 each, and other assets to the estimated value of $2,000 are all missing from the return this year. John D. will I save $41 in taxes by their absence. He has also complained about the valuation of his real estate, declaring it was appraised about $1,000,000 too high. He wants that sum knocked off. John D. expects to arrive in Cleveland in about two weeks. Baby Falls Four Stories: Escapes Without Injury. There is every promise that Chris ' Caron, three years old, whose parents live in No. 169 East 110th St., New York, will become a great safety aeronaut. Chris and some of his brothers and sisters were taken one afternoon by their mothers to visit friends on the fourth floor of No. 2012 Third avenue. While the women talked the children began matching cigarette coupon pictures and climbed out on the fire escape to carry on the game. One of the cards dropped from the balcony and Chris leaned over to see where it went. He went over, too, and the screams of the horrified youngsters brought their mothers first to the 1 windows and then sent them raci n cr Hnnnt ??
