WITHOUT going SO far as to suggest
that recent discoveries in electrical
science will lead to means OF inter-
stellar communication, there can be
no doubt that its effects upon our own
planet will DO enormous. Here the
way will be opened for communication
between light ships and the shore
without the inconvenience OF sub-ma-
rino cable. Mountainous peaks can
be put in communication without tho
work OF stringing wire over miles
OF difficulties and throughout the
land there is promise that unsightly
poles and dangerous web-like net
works will cease to be feature of
our city streets. These IRE all con
summations dovoutly TO be wished.
and that tho hope OF them is no mere
visionary dream is testified by tho
nature of the successes already
achieved and the practical knowledge
OF men pushing the Investigations

FIELD GUNS.
Difficulties of High veiocity--A Few Extra


Difficulties of High veiocity--A Few Extra
Feet.
The high velocity Is gained not
only at the expense OF the carriage
but OF the projectile. The violent
forces In the bore break up pro eciiles
formed OF the ordinary cast-iron and
steel has to DO employed for shells, u
material not only more costly but less
we'll adapted TO the purpose or which
1t is intended. Cast-iron breaks up
readily into small pieces and allows
the force OF the bursting charge to
have full effect, while steel shell Is
strong enough to resist the explosion
inside it too effectually. is only par
TALLY opened. and does not fly into
splinters. Other difficulties also arise
in connection with fuses says the Sat
urday Review. and these have. in
fact proved SO insuperable that the
great powers OF the l2-pounder cannot
DO fully utilized--as regards shrapnol.
not be made to act at any thing except
ordinary ranges.
The situation Is this-that II you
insist on high velocity you have to
add SO much additional machinery to
your gun carriage and have TO so
greatly strengthen Its construction
TINT you destroy its mobility, while
even il you gain long range you arc
still unable to make use OF your most
efficient projectile at it. Moreover.
since the remaining velocity of its
shrapnel is a truer measure Of the
value OF n gun than its initial velocity.
and the two are by no means directly
proportional. il does not follow that
we benefit rs much us we might expect
by submitting to these disadvantages.
Thus. the 12-pounder has an initial
velocity OF over ], 700 feet per second
and u remaining velocity ut 3. 600
yards of S62 feet; while the l3-pounder
with an initial velocity of only |, $50
feet has mt the same rangcA remain
ing velocity greater by SIX feet per
second than that OF its ri nj. One OF
our highest authorities on field artil.
lery has indeed. recorded his opinion
that as regards the efficiency OF shrap.
mel. we gain nothing by the increased
muzzle velocity OF 1.-The best f:eld-gun
in Europe at all practical ranges.
Moreover, it is the attempt TO squeeze
out tho last few extra feet that does
all the harm.

SrONtEa ~ THE DAIRY.

Are We 10 believe that story about
large milk company in Denmark running
the milk through sponoes to purify it
and that out Of nine million pounds OF
milk i've tons Of filth were taken. This
looks like pretty big pile of filth, but
1t Is also an ocean Of milk, making one
pound o, filth to 1921 eight gallon cans
of milk, according 70 the figuring Of the
Farmers Rtcter, which is not nearly the
per cent. of dirt that any of the separa-
tors take out Of milk. The whole story
looks absurd, not only the small amount
of dirt found, but the imprach hcablity Of
using sponges for such purpose. There
are a few dairies where sponges are used
to take the water off the butter when it
is being worked, but it is SO hard to keep
the sponge sweet and clean that it is a
questionable practice. How they could
keep the multitude Of sponges clean that
would be necessary for SO large quantity
of milk we do not see. Besides, sponges
are not Of much account for arrestiny
dirt. They simply take up and give out
again, the water does not pass through
the sponge as though it was a strainer.
We will have to hear more of that story
before we believe it-1meric4n it Dqtry.
