HUMOROUS 
'(), Teacher, what's an Autocrat? 
A liated personage, my child, 
Who drives an auto through the wild 
Defenseless 1 Tolela riat. 
And who's the Proletariat? 
The luckless masses, who would like. 
With bricks, the Autocrat to strike. 
Or rope him with a lariat. 
Yet—mark you this : when one of that 
Indignant throng amasses pelf, 
lie buys an autocar himself, 
And is, thenceforth, an Autocrat. 
—Life. 
Doctor (after careful examination) : 
“Some foreign substance is lodged in your 
eye.” Dennis: “Oi knowed ut! Thot’s 
what Oi git f’r wurrukin' wid them Da¬ 
goes !”—Cleveland Leader. 
“They are sending electricity through 
buried wires in order to stimulate the 
growth of vegetables.’’ “I wonder if the 
current is strong enough to shock the 
corn ?”—Cleveland Plain Dealer. 
Tom: “Now that your engagement is 
broken, arc you going to make Carissa 
send back your letters?” George: ‘You 
bet 1 am! I worked hard on those letters; 
they’re worth using again 1”—Detroit Free 
Press. 
“I want a business suit now.” said Slo- 
pay.” 1 was thinking of something in the 
way of a small plaid.” “And 1,” replied 
the tailor, “can’t help thinking of some¬ 
thing in the way of a small check.”—Phil¬ 
adelphia Press. 
“You Americans don’t belong to the 
nobility,” said the slightly supercilious 
foreigner. “No,” answered Mr. Cumrox, 
“hut if our girls keep on marrying abroad 
the nobility will eventually belong to us.” 
—Washington Star. 
Little Amzi (who has an inquiring 
mind)—“Do you s’spose, Uncle Bill, that a 
hen knows the difference between a real 
egg and a wooden one?” Uncle Bill Bider- 
back—“Sartin she does, Amzi. Ye never 
heard of a hen lavin’ a wooden egg, did 
ye?”—Town Topics. 
Ai.ice rushed in from the garden, where 
she had been picking (lowers. She was 
badly stung by a bee and was "holding on 
to her finger and sobbing pitifully. “Oh, 
mama,” she cried, “1 burned me on a 
hug!”—Brooklyn Life. 
“Are you going to send your hoy to 
college?” “I don’t see the use,” answered 
Farmer Corntossel. "The first thing a 
college professor does when he gets a 
bright idea is to publish it. I’d rather 
subscribe to-the newspaper.”—Washington 
Star. 
“No man is so low,” remarked the citi¬ 
zen who is fond of moral reflections, “hut 
what there is some one lower.” “That’s 
so,” assented the fat citizen. “Even the 
tainted oil millionaire can look down on 
the chap who puts pig-iron into life-pre¬ 
servers.”—Louisville Courier Journal.

I t. N.-Y. and you’ll get a quick reply ami

because the machines have feij 
making the table much wi'b«. ^ -.argrer 
rollers, deeper throat and a o <~t ' Inde¬ 
pendent balance wheel to men ■ <* n the mo¬ 
tion. A 10-horse steam engine furnishes 
ample power to run a cutter and blower from 
10 to 15 tons capacity per hour. Many are 
running with 8-horsc gasoline engines and do 
satisfactory work. 
CHEAPER TO OPERATE because 
the self feed table Is so wide. No feeder 
necessary. Simply drop the unbound bun¬ 
dles on the table and the self feed machine 
docs the rest. The blower Is guaranteed to 
handle all the machine can cut, and elevate 
same to a silo of any height. The fan case 
Is pressed from heavy steel, reinforced by 
steel angles, therefore it cannot get out of 
shape. We use larger pipe than others—it’s 
because our machines cut faster. 
SPEOIAI. SERES, Our specials No. 
12,14,16 and 18 arc the Ideal silo fillers, for 
they are larger and stronger than their size 
indicates. That’s why they are called 
specials. 
ACCIDENTS ARE IIRPOSSIBL.E 
on the Smalley Safety Blower, for when Iron 
or other hard foreign substance comes in 
contact with the knives the fly wheel and 
pulley revolve loosely on the main shaft, 
stopping the machine instantly. Machines 
not so provided will be badly broken, some- 
causing fatal 
accidents. 
DRIVING DEVICE 
Is new and effective. Drive belt runs 
cutter and blower. The tightener prevents 
belt slippages. 
-TIOUNTINGS. We have a durable 
and Inexpensive four-wheeled truck for 
mounting our cutters and blowers. 
PRICES are lower than machines of 
like capacity can be purchased elsewhere. 
DON’T EXPERIMENT. It’s an¬ 
noying and expensive. Wc did that for you. 
Get our machine, it has the reputation of 
being the best that money will buy, has fifty 
years of practical experience back of it and 
no disappointed customer. 
This Is what Geo. McKcrrow, of Pewau- 
kce, Wisconsin, president of the Wisconsin 
State Fair, says: “The only trouble we had 
with the Smalley No. 18, special and blower, 
was to get the corn to It fast enough to keep 
It busy.”
