j a A BENEFIT TO FARMERS. The benefits that will undoubtedly result to farmers from the recent in- cerporation of the International Har. _ Vester Company which took ever the business of the five leading harvester Manufacturers have probably not been considered by a large portion of the farming community. The economical necessity of a con- Solidation of the interests of manufac: turers and those of their farmer cus- tomers must be apparent to any one who understands the present situa- tion, The increased and increasing cost of material, manufacturing and sell- ing—the latter in consequence of ex- treme and bitter competition between Manufacturers and their several sell- ing agents—has made the business unprofitable, The two alternatives left for the manufacturers were either the in- creasing of the prices of machines or the reduction of the cost of manufac- ture and sales. The latter could only be accomplished by concentrating the business in one company. As can readily be seen, the forming of the new company was not a stock jebbing operation but a centering of mutual interests. There is no watered Stock; the capitalization is con- servative and represented by actual and tangible assets. There is no stock offered to the public, it having all ‘been subscribed and paid for by the manufacturers and their associ- ates. The management of -the Interna- tional Harvester Company is in the hands of well known, experienced men. The officers are: President, Cyrus H. McCormick; Chairman Executive Committee, Charles Deering; Chair- man Finance Committee, George W. Perkins; Vice-Presidents, Harold F. McCormick, James Deering, Wm. H. Jones and John J. Glessner; Secre- tary and Treasurer, Richard F. Howe. The members of the Board of Direct- ors are as follows: Cyrus. Bentley, William Deering, Charles Deering, James Deering, Eldridge M. Fowler, E. H. Gary, John J. Glessner, Richard F. Howe, Abram M. Hyatt, William H. Jones, Cyrus H. McCormick, Harold F. McCormick, George W. Perkins, Norman B. Ream, Leslie N. Ward, Paul D. Cravath. The International Harvester Com- pany owns five of the largest harves- ter plants in existence. The Chany pion, Deering, McCormick, Milwaukee and Plano—plants that have been producing nearly or quite 90 per cent of the harvesting machines of the world. It also owns timber and coal lands, blast furnaces and arsteel plant; it has a new factory in the process of construction in Canada. It is believed that the cost of pro- ducing grain, grass and corn harvest- ing machines will be so reduced that the present low prices can be con- tinued, and that consequently the re- sults cannot be otherwise than bene- ficial to the f.rmer. To maintain the present prices of these machines means to continue and increase the development of the agriculture of the world, for no one cause has contribut= ed or can contribute more to this de velopment than the cheapness of machines for harvesting grains.

SEVERAL MINERS ARE INJURED STRIKERS APRLY THE TORCH TO VARIOUS PORTIONS OF THE MINE. TROOPS ARE VERY MtCH NEEDED MANY SHOTS ARE FIRED FROM AMBUSH UPON NON-UNION MINERS. Bramwell, W. Va., Sept. 8. — The great mines of the Pocahontas Collier- ies company were set on fire yester- day morning. Strikers applied the torch to various portions of the mine near the west entrance, which is on the Virginia side, but by night the fire was practically extinguished. The guards and strikers fired volley after volley at each other, and a num- ber of strikers were injured. Adjt. Gen. Baker, who has been in this sec- tion for a few days looking over the territory, left last midnight for other fields, informing the operators before he left, however, that he thought the presence of the militia unnecessary at that time. The outbreak, however, will probably cause a change in his mind, and it is thought here that troops will be sent immediately. Last night the Pocahontas Coilieries company doubled its force of guards, as another attack was feared at any time. Many shots have been fired from ambush toward the direction of non- union miners going to and from work in the Flat Top field. STRIKERS WANT TROOPS. Ask Gov. White Not to Withdraw Them Until the Strike Ends. Charleston, W. Va., Sept. 3—Gov. White is in receipt of the following: “Troops are now located at Thur- mond to preserve order. They were sent there at the instance of our sher- iff, and while upon investigation it ap- pears that the eall for troops was un- necessary and utter folly, yet, we, as winers, are glad to have them. They are principally union men and in sym- pathy with our cause and look upon the men working with the same con- tempt that we do. Heretofore the guards around the mines have been ecmmitting all sorts of outrages on our people. Since the troops have come this has stopped and we will not suffer while they are here. We, therefore, ask that you do not with- draw them until the strike ends.” The resolutions bear the names of the officers and the seal of the miners’ organization. It is supplemented by the following: “At a meeting of Local Union No. 442, United Mineworkers of America, 300 members. petition you to send troops to Winona or Kenney’s creek to preserve order until the strike is settled. —— AS DETERMINED AS EVER. President Mitchell Says Miners Wil! Fight It Out. Wilkesbarre, Pa., Sept. 3. — Presi- dent Mitchell! of the United Mine- workers returned from Philadelphia last night. He said so far as he was aware, there was no change in the strike situation. The miners were as determined as ever and did not pro- pose to go to work until the operators granted their demands or agreed to arbitration. The Bliss and Pettibone ' na & Western company resumed ope- rations yesterday. The breakers were running all day, but just how many men are at work in the mines and what the output of coal is, is not known. refuse to give out any information. URGE GOV. STONE TO ACT.

Bousch, Richmond, Va., writes: «| had catarrh all through my sys- tem for two years and could get no re- lief. I was advised to try Peruna, and I have taken five bottles of it and am well and better now than I have been for years. I can advise any one who has catarrh of any part of the body to take Peruna. My little girl, who is eleven years old had catarrh, but was cured by Peruna. Before I began to take Peruna I was sick all the time, but now I am entirely cured and all praise is due Peruna.---Mrs. M. K. Bousch. Miss Pearl Bousch writes: ‘‘When I was a baby I contracted catarrh, and Cured by Pe-ru-na of Systemic Catarrh. was doctored by several good physi- cians, but none did me any good. My mother was taking Peruna at the time and gave some of it to me, and I soon began to improve, and am now welland fat as a little pig. I am twelve years old. The doctors told mother I had the consumption, but it was only catarr! —Miss Pearl Bousch. Itis no longer a question as to whether Perunacan be relied on to cure all such eases. During the many yearsin which Peruna has been put to test in all forms and stages of acute and chronic catarrh no one year has put this remedy to greater test than the past year. Peruna is the acknowledged catarrh remedy of the age. Dr. Hartman, the compounder of Peruna, has written a book on the phases of catarrh peculiar to women, entitled, ‘(Health and Beauty.” It will be sent free to any address by The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, 0. If you do not derive prompt and satis- factory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his valuable ad- vice gratis.
