I am informed, credibly, T believe, that the rainy weather causes moisture on the grain and that this causes delay and pérhaps even-loss to the agriculturist. Now to obviate this I have devised certain inventipns and offer them to the farmers without charge. The only stipulation I make is that if any of the farmers manufacture these inventions they label them ‘M. T. Dome System.’ From description by Mr. Dome the artist has sketched the new Dome inventions. upon the shocks.
