PEERING AT PARIS IN 1900.
The Fandom Chlesgo Harreatcr Com
pany Received More end Greater
Honon than Were Ever Before
Accorded no American Exhibitor In
the HUtory of BxpoeUloae.
America may well feel proud of the
Interest which her citisena took in Jtho
Faria Exposition and the elaborate ex
hibits which were prepared with con
summate skill and dlaplayed in a man
ner not excelled by any other country.
Those of Harvesting Machinery in par
ticular were most complete and inter
esting. The Deering Harvester Com
pany, of Chicago, America's foremost
manufacturer of this line of goods, was
accorded the position of honor, having
contributed more to the advancement
of the art of harvesting than any other
manufacturer, living or dead, and with
a greater array of important inven
tions to its credit than any other com
pany in the worldv
Visitors to the Exposition were
prompt to accord the Deering exhibits
supreme honors, and it only remained
for official mandate to ratify the popu
lar verdict, which was done In a man
ner as substantial as it was well-merit
ed. Each one of the seven Deering ex
hibits secured the highest award in
its class.
In addition to four high decora
tions, the Deering Harvester Company
received twenty-five awards, or twen
ty-nine in all, as follows: Decoration
of Officer of the Legion of Honor, Dec
oration of Chevalier of the Legion of
Honor, Two Decorations of Officer oi
Merits Agricole, a Special Certificate
of Honor, The Grand Prise, Six Gold
Medals, Six Silver Medals and Eleven
Bronse Medals, including Deering Col
laborator Medals.
The Decoration of the Legion of
Honor was Instituted by Napoleon
Bonaparte when' First Consul in 1802,
and is only conferred in recognition
of distinguished military or civil
achievements. It is the highest dis
tinction In the gift of the French Re
public.
The Decoration of the Merite Agri
cole is an honor of but slightly less im
portance, which is conferred upon
those who have contributed greatly to
the advancement of agriculture.
An Official Certificate of Honor was
accorded the Deering Retrospective
Exhibit, which showed the improve
ments in harvesting machinery during
the past century, and excited the high
est praise of the French Government
Officials who had entrusted to the
Deering Harvester Company the prep
aration of this most important exhibit.
By special request this exhibit has
been presented to the National Mu
seum of Arts and Sciences at Paris,
where it has become a permanent fea
ture of that world-famed institution.
The Deering Twine Exhibit and Corn
Harvester Exhibit, both of which re
ceived the highest awards, have by
request of the French Government
been presented to the National Agri
cultural College of France.
There was no field trial, either offi
cial or otherwise, in connection with
the Paris Exposition, but the most im
portant foreign contest the past season
was held under the auspices of the
Russian Expert Commission at the
Governmental Farm of Tomsk, Siberia,
August 14th to 18th. All the leading
American and European machines par
ticipated and were subjected to the
most difficult tests by the Government
Agriculturist. The Expert Commission
awarded the Deering Harvester Com
pany the Grand Silver Medal of the
Minister of Agriculture and Domain,
which was the highest award.
The Deering Harvester Works are
the largest of their kind in the world,
covering eighty-five acres and employ
ing 9,000 people. They are equipped
with modern automatic machines,
many of which perform the labor of
from five to fifteen hands.
This Company is also the largest
manufacturer of Binder Twine in the
world, having been first to produce
single-strand binder twine, such as is
in general use today, making over a
third of the product of the entire
world. The output of its factory for
a single day would tie a band around
the earth at the equator, with several
thousand miles to spare. The annual
production would fill a freight train
twenty miles long. Made into a mat
two feet wide, it would reach across
the American continent from ocean to
ocean.
Deering machines are known a*
LIGHT DRAFT IDEALS, consisting of
Binders, Mowers, Reapers, Corn Har
vesters, Shredders and Rakes.
This company exhibited at the Faris
Exposition an Automobile Mower,
which attracted much attention, and
exhibitions were given with one of
these machines in the vicinity of Paris
throughout the season.

An Artist in Courtesy*
The New York Times relates a din
ner incident to illustrate the essence
of courtesy and politeaeis on the part
of a New Yorker who lately returned
from a long sojourn abroad. He met
an old friend at a dinner party the
other night, who gave him a cordial
handshake and asked him when he
had arrived home. "The moment I
saw you,” was the quick answer.

LINCOLN, Neb., April 6.—The new
supreme court commission will prob
ably be divided into three distinct
branches, each to consist of three
members. Assignment of cases will
be made by the court proper, which
will remain in full possession of the
present supreme court rooms. The
commission will occupy a series of
ante-rooms on the second floor of the
building and some of the oral argu
ments wll be heard In the senate
chamber. It Is presumed the three
judges will devote their attention al
most exclusively to arguments on mo
tions, leaving the preparation of opin
ions to the commissioners, subject, of
course, to the court’s approval.
Governor Dietrich was interviewed
by several persons interested in the
appointment of the Nebraska commis
sioner to the Pan-American exposi
tion. There are already live appli
cants for the position and still other
names are frequently mentioned In
connection with the appointment.
Among them is Representative Hlb
bert, author of the bill creating the
office, who Jure strong endorsements
and is making a vigorous fight for
ihe place. Although the governor
has given no intimations, it is under
stood that he will select some one
who has had experience in managing
exhibits, or who has in some way
been connected with an exposition.
Various ideas for the state’s exhibit
at the exposition have been advanced.
Some would have the state represent
ed by a typical sod house and others
believe a small but modern eottags,
characteristic of Nebraska’s most up
to-date architecture, would make a
better showing. Whatever may be
the nature of tho building, one thing
is settled, and that is that no effort
will be spared to show to as good ad
vantage as possible the agricultural
and educational resources of the state.
The legislature enacted few laws
which will In any way affect tha in
surance Interests of the state. The
most important measure of this class
is the act repealing the mutual hog
Insurance law. The effect of the pass
age of this law will be to prevent fu
ture organization of these companies,
all those heretofore existing having
failed or gone out of business. An
act to repeal the hail insurance law
was introduced, but because one or
two of these companies are still do
ing business it was soon defeated.

On misty days In autumn the
schoolboy of the Black Forest Is
inarched to the peak of some high
hill. From there geography is taught
him, says a German correspondent.
It la pointed out to him. that he
etands upon an island completely
surrounded by the mist, which, for
the purpose of this comedy, has had
handed to it the part of water, which
it plays with much success. The
twin rivers of mist on either side of
him, Ailing both valleys, are, for him,
estuaries; the spur of mountain op
t^Mite is a peninsula. He descends,
it is certain, with geographical Ideas
in his head that could never have
been put there by mere maps hanging
upon a wall. » ..

By actual experience the Ruskln
ites, a colony of socialists near Way
cross. Ga., have demonstrated what
is probably the lowest possible daily
cost for food. They live at an actual
cost .per capita of loss than 10 cants
a day. Of course, this could not
have been accomplished except
through co-operation. Everything
they consume is bought at wholesale
in large quantities, and is cooked in
the community kitchen. In the com
munity dining room tables are set for
300 people. Those who do not wish
to eat with the crowd are allowed the
privilege of purchasing company
stores and cooking them at home.

To protect your health and our reputation, we will gladly pay this big reward to any one who will furnish us infor
mation on which we can secure conviction of a dealer who tries to sell worthless fake imitations, when CASCARETS
are called for. When you’re offered something”just as good”, it’s because there is a little more money in the fake.
Buy CASCARETS from the honest dealer. They are always put up in blue metal boxes with long-tailed trade
marked C on the cover—every tablet stamped C. C. C.f and they are never sold in bulk. Remember this and when
ever fakes are offered when CASCARETS are called for, get ail the details and write us on the subject at once.
