HARVESTER TRUST COSTLY TO 0. S. .Great Loss of Exports in Farm Implements to Argentine. I EUROPE IS MAKING GAINS.

'UNUSUAL BUYING MOOD OF SOUTH AMERICANS HAS NOT BENEFITED UNITED STATES IMPLEMENT INDUSTRIES.

Chicago, Aug. 29. The harvester trust has cost the United States heav

ily in loss of exports of farm implements to foreign countries, at least to

Argentine in South America, accord

Ing to reports from the United States consul general at Buenoa Ayres. Notwithstanding that tho big Argentine crops of 1907 have put that country into a pleasant buying mood, and in- ' creased the requirements for harvesting machinery, the records show that of shipments from the United States of agricultural implements there has been this year a decrease. There seems to be a loss of selling energy In a corporation so big as the International, as is well illustrated in this case. In almost all other lines of trade- there has been an increase of exports from the United States to Argentine.'' However, the business interests of the United States are comparatively letting Europe run away with the Argentine trade. The total t imports of Argentine from various countries tells the tale. For the first quarter of 1908 the imports reached a total of $70,240,220 as against $54,660, 885, the exports being in like proportion. The shares of various countries in this business were as follows: i Country. Imports.

UNION LABEL ON WEDDING CARDS One Man Clung to Practices Of Organization.

Washington, Aug. 29. Is the union label on your wedding invitations, Mr. Union Man? No? Then you are derelict in your duty to the union. Frank Morrison, secretary of the American Federation of Labor, who was married a few days ago to Miss

Alice Boswell, of this city, is truer to the tenets of his faith. He practices what he preaches. Their wedding invitations bore the label of the lithographers union. Morrison is one of the most popular labor leaders in the country. His bride, for several years, has been chief , bookkeeper in his office. She is tall and dark, with a classical face and a charming manner. She is unusually popular in her circle of friends. Moreover she is an enthusiastic union labor advocate.

POTATOES GROWN BELOW AND ABOVE GROUND Two Years' Experiment Ends Successfully.

Waterbury, Conn., Aug. 29. Samuel Wilson, of Wolcott, is raising potatoes both above and below ground on the same vine as a result of two years of experimenting. A few weeks ago, on looking over his new potato plants, he saw little bud-like protuberances growing out from the bases of the leaves. These buds developed into well formed and good sized potatoes of the same kind as those growing at the roots of the plants. The bush potato is a cross between the Beauty. of Hebron potato and the Delaware. Those above ground grow from four to eight on a plant, one at the base of each leaf. Food experts report the hybrid to be far more nutritious than the Irish, or sweet potato and much more easily grown.

RAILROADER .HIS REPORT IS FALSE Man Working in Interest of Watson Says He Is Not Paid. HE CLAIMS IT'S POLITICS.

ACCEPTS THE OPPORTUNITY TO STAND BY FRIEND AND WORKS FOR NO MOTIVE BUT PURE FRIENDSHIP.

Logansport, Ind., Aug. 29. "Roosevelt's 'shorter and uglier word' might be applied to the statement that I am here as a hired emmissary to advance the Interests of James E. Watson but let's be reasonable and just say the statement is a mistake," said II. M.

Markle when asked concerning the

statement in an evening paper to the effect that he is hired to come here and campaign for Watson with the

promise of an official position in the event Watson is elected. Markle is

night yard master in the Lake Erie &

Western yards at Tipton and is on his

vacation. He is a brother of Claude

Markle, 1710 North street and Is here

visiting for a few days.

Markle is a member of the B. of R.

T., is secretary of the order, is chairman of the grievance committee for

his brotherhood for the entire system and was chairman of the Trainmen's

legislative committee at the last In

diana legislature.

"Sure I'm for Watson," he exclaimed last night. "There was no mis

take when it was said I'm a Watson man. I plead guilty to that charge all the time and I'm glad of it. What I object to is the statement that I'm

employed by any politician or politi

cal committee to campaign for any

man.

"I talked with Judge Smith here

yesterday and he's a good Brother

hood man. He's a democrat and will do all he can for Marshall." I'm a republican and will do all I can for Watson. But Judge Smith will tell you as quickly as myself that the statement that our Brotherhood is op

posed to Watson is a He. The Broth

erhood of Railroad Trainmen doesn't mix in politics. The members talk

and work and vote as they please but never as an organization we don't stand for it. "I am for Watson for the very reason some say they are against him. I am for him because of his record in congress. I know well that Watson saved us the sixteen hour bill and at that time, although I had no intimation that it would ever come to pass I wished that some day I'd get a chance to vote for him." "If Watson was against the railroad man I guess I wouldn't vote for him. I lost my job during the last legislative session in this state on account of the fifty-car bill. "I was chairman of the legislative committee for the trainmen of this state and we passed resolutions asking that the bill limiting trains to 50 cars be passed. I was told that if that bill passed I would lose my head. It passed and 1 did lose my head. I was discharged within a month after the bill was signed just as I was told I would be. But I'm back with the same company now and I'm not sorry the bill went through, either. "As chairman of the grievance committee of our order I would he a dog to lose sight of the intersts of the Brotherhood. My Interest lies there and you wouldn't catch me supporting a man whose record in congress was against us. "What I object to is the democrat lads among us knocking Watson under

the guise that they oppose him because he is friendly to us. That is not fair, they are against Watson because they are democrats and that's all right but they shouldn't say the brotherhood is against him and that he was unfair to us because he was not and every" railroad man who watches up the intersts of our orders knows he was not." "I'm for Watson, first, last and all the time. He's got more nerve than any man who has aspired to or held the office of governor in this state in many a year. He's on the square and he's on the right ticket. "Every railroad man should vote as he pleases. I'm going to and I don't think I'm any less good Brother

hood man for supporting him. As for being paid for working for him that's a foolish statement. I believe if the republican leaders heard I was going on a stumping trip they'd pay me and carry a list but I know more about switching out a cut of empties than I do about tariff. I watch legislation concerning railroad men pretty close though and Watson pulled that sixteen hour bill out for us when it was tied up so it looked as though it would never become a law. The sixteen hour law is a good thing and the man who succeeded In getting it passed is good enough to get my vote for governor."

YOUNG WOMEN FIGHT BATTLW1TH GLOVES Had Argument as to Who Was More Efficient.

Boston, Mass., Aug. 29 Despite all efforts to keep the matter secret, the story of a prize fight between two young women, who have been spending the summer in Tully, near Orange, Mass., became public today. The young women are Miss Ina Babcock, aged 19 years, and Miss Anna Fullman, aged 20 years. Both claim New York as their home. The young women have been stopping in Tully since July 28, but both left for their homes when they found that the story had leaked out. The young women, both athletes, had an argument as to which was the more accomplished in the art of selfdefense, and it was agreed to settle the matter with eight-ounce gloves, the fight to last until one of the two was knocked out. Accordingly, the young women, with several of their friends, retired to a spot in the woods, where a ring was pitched and, after donning bathing suits, started in to pummel each other. The fight lasted three rounds, Miss Babcock being knocked out with a right swing to the jaw.

HOLDS UPJ TRAIN Child of But Six Years Stops Flyer on Long Island Railroad.

PLUCK UNPRECEDENTED. New York, Aug. 29. A curly headed girl of 6 years held up an express

train of the Long Island railroad near

Richmond Hill, Queensborough, yesterday afternoon. Lulu Emile is her name. She lives in Brooklyn, but is visiting her aunt, Mrs. Heinstadt, of No. 54 Vine street, Richmond Hill. With her little cousin Emily aged 9. Lulu, although forbidden to do so, went to play upon the railroad tracks. "The trains never stop for anybody," said Emily. "Pooh! I can make one stop; see if I can't." said Lulu. The scream of an express train sounded in the distance. Lulu sprang between the rails, planted her feet well apart, squared her shoulders, and faced the oncoming train. The engineer saw her and shook his clenched fist. She budged not an inch. He shut off steam and waved his arms and tooted his whistle. Lulu pursed her lips and whistled in reply. A mounted policeman a block away saw the child's danger and spurred his horse, but he was not needed. There was nothing else to do, and the engineer stopped. "Don't arrest that kid, officer," said he. "She's too game a sport. Now, go home, girlie, and don't take any more risks like that." "I told Emily I could stop the train, and I did," said Lulu.

BEEF KEEPS A YEAR AND A HALF

Tests Made by W. D. Richardson in New York. New York, Aug. 29. How long is it possible to keep meats in a frozen state Is unknown, but in chemical and microscopical examinations of iced beef and poultry, W. D. Richardson has detected no alteration after a year and a half, as muscular tissue cools to just above thirty degrees Fahrenheit, the water separates as ice, contracting the fibres and forming an armor that it is impossible for bacteria, to penetrate.

Why Scotch Farmer Refused a Portion of Dessert. Could the funny sayings and Incidents at the tenants' dinners in Scotland be collected they would make an unrivaled book of humor. Mistakes of amusing and sometimes embarrassing natnre occur frequently at such functions. One story Is told of a guest at a Scottish tenants dinner who tasted Ice cream for the first time on that occasion. He pushed a large spoonful of the frozen mixture into his mouth and jumped from his chair with agony expressed on his face. lie let out a yell and cried out, "Ow, ow, ma rotten tooth!" and could not be induced to eat any more. At another Scottish affair of the kind a good old farmer was seated next to

the hostess. She served him a bit of savory omelet, which seemed to cause the old man deep disappointment His idea of an omelet bad always been a dessert with sugar or fruit or jams, and after tasting the sample before him he turned to the hostess and said, "Weel, ma lady. I canna compliment you on your puddin's." The late Duke of Buccleuch told a story of a tenant at one of the farmers' dinners on his estates who was asked, by the duchess if he would take some rhubarb, a dish she was fond of. The farmer was surprised, but an'.wered politely, "I'm muckle obleeged to your grace, but I dlnna' need it.

The Greatt FellttinniainL Special

Siloes for Menu and Wommee

A Dollar Saved is a Dollar Made

This advertisement tells how you can save a dollar on your next pair of shoes.

Our Feltman Special $2.50 Shoe For Men This is a $2.50 shoe in price only. In all other respects it is a $3.50 shoe as sold by merchants today. The dollar difference in price represents the difference between a shoe with the "profits' which a dealer has added to it, and one stripped of all these "profits." In our Feltman Special shoe we eliminated every one of these profits except a very small one for ourselves. We went direct to the factory. It required no extra expense upon our part, over those already existing in our shoe store, to handle this shoe, so we entirely cut out the margin for expenses. Our own profit we fixed, not with a view of how much we could make on a pair of shoes, but rather how much we could cut off of the price. .We were establishing a price that would win business not merely in our own locality, but all over the country, and we must get that price so low that strangers would go to the trouble of sending us their orders. We knew that just a little saving would not induce them to do this. It must be a big saving. So we cut down the price enough to effect the saving of an even dollar on a pair of $3.50 shoes. This left a mighty small profit for us; but we reasoned that it is not the profit on one pair that counts, but the total volume of business done. The demand is growing at a constantly increasing ratio and we intend to carry its sale wherever men wear shoes. It is superior to many and the equal of any $3.50 shoe on the market. We believe you want to save money on your purchases if you can. Every intelligent man wants to do that, unless he has money to throw away. After you wear the shoes and find them to be the best you ever bought for the money, give us your business and tell your friends. Very respectfully, CHAS. H. FELTMAN. Richmond, Ind.
