LIKES THE AMERICAN COMPA NY'S PRESS An Arkansas Firm Used it Last Sea son With Great Satisfaction J A. .1. Clements, ol the firm of Clements <fc Danial, cotton ginners of Lonoke, Ark., was in the city yesterday. Mr. Clements was seen by a Commercial Appeal repre sentative in the office of the American i Cotton Company, in the Continental build ing, and he talked very enthusiastically of that company's Roundlap bale press, which he has been operating at his gin the past season. He compressed about 4,000 bales on his Roundlap bale press, and the cotton was all sold at tlie press at Mem phis prices. Mr. Clements says that a Roundlap bale from the American Com pany’s press will net from $2.50 to $3.00 more than from the old press. In fact, a tanner a few months ago, made a test of the matter, bringing the exact number of pounds of the same quality to Mr. Clem ents that he did to a square bale press, without letting either gin know lie was making the test, and the Roundiap bale netted just $3.75 more than the square bale. Mr. Clements says that one season has satisfied him of the merits of tlie American Company’s Roundlap bale press. It is a good thing be says, both tor the ginner and the farmer, and his firm will continue its use and abandon its other press en tirely.—Commercial Appeal, Memphis, Tenn.

Tod Sloane’s ganieuess will never be questioned by those who saw him win a race on Walter in a nose finish at the old East St. Louis track some years ago. After tho race Tod was hardly able to dismount. Then it was learned that he bad broken an arm in the race. It seems that be was crowded against the fence in a jam around one of tlie turns and broke his arm. Switching the reins to his good arm, he rode tho race out witii great determination, putting up a ‘‘Garrison finish” and winning on the post by the narrowest possible margin.
