His official 1929 yield, 170.14 bu. shelled corn per acre on 10 acres, in spite of a wet season and early frost, nearly equals his all-thne record of 176.22 bu. per acre made the year before. "I have grown more corn on ten acres of land each year for the past five years than anyone else in the world. The most important factor in producing these high , yields I attribute to the Chilean Nitrate of Soda applied to the crop.” IRA C. MARSHALL. HOW MARSHALL FERTILIZES 250 lbs. per acre 0-14-4 before planting. Then 100 lbs. pet acre 0-14-4 plus 50 lbs of Chilean Nitrate in hill at planting. Thea side dressing with ISO lbs. Chilean Nitrate per acre. Chilean Nitrate of Soda can be relied upon to increase your yield and improve quality. Prevents “firing.” It is the plant food corn likes best. Costs very little.

' | Richard M. llartigan. employed in , the plant cons ruction department and living at 1707 Fairchild road working in association with Ordean , Kiltie, has brought about annual savings of more than $50,000 by designing she original conveyor type of automatic testing n ach ne , for radio transformeis. The development was done under pressure and mvolved much overtime work. Mr. Halligan came to the Fort Waym Works in September 1925, afte! | graduating from Kansas State Col , lege of Agr culture, becoming a student engineer. I Harry E. Hair, who is siiperir.■!, leudent of the wire and insulating i division, after much intensive I study, developed the use of a soft | yarn .11 place of a hard yarn for wire .covering, making iioss.ble savings 1 in equipment, materials and labor 1 estimated at more than $150,000 in 1 ! one year. The idea can be applied i j not only to factory operations a the Fort Wayne works but also in the factories at Schenectady, Lynn and Pittsfield August Kayser, of 1020 West Jefferson s reet, employed as an expert mechanic, received his second Coffin Foundation award today. The was singled out in similar manner in 1926. Mr. Kayser, who is a mechanical genius,, was asked to see if he could devise improved automatic wiling machine for internally winding the stators of fractional horsepower motors. He succeeded so well that he new machine means annual ■ savings of $250,000 and produces a better product at greater speed. Ordean Kiltie, who shared with M. llartigan the achievement of 1 designing and supervising the con- 1 struct.on of the original conveyor I type of automatic testing machine 1 for radio transformers, is employed 1 on .he transformer test and is a 1 natice of Beltrami.

Legal action against tlie rebels appeared probable today as a result of their taking the int rnatioiial name and seal for the new oiganization.

One of the important changes in | the constitution was an amendment: p oviding that the constituiton be effective unt'l amended by a sue-1 ceeding constitutional convent.on.l Previously, a (’.'finite date of ex-i piration had been set and this wa ■ me of Hi. causes on which the dual oig..nization was based.

(’(invention leaders wore of the' (q.i'.ion t(>da„v that the meetings! were the most peaceful ever held. From the outset, it appeared thei delegates were resigned to take up the important business before them, and were easily handled by the spokesmen. Considerable argument resulted r. m resolutions urging that tlie .11ternational officers accept a reduction in salary ami their terms be limited. But these were successfully voted down. Aigument also rose over resolutions of Pennsylvania del gates to change the constitution requirement -for levying tines and assessments. The eastern mim-is received little cooperation from the geneial assembly, however, and the.r resolutions were put down. Several resolutions asking Lewis and oilier off cers to re-:ign were voted down without discussion.
