Mr.. Mott on nrsohnnlonl Flight.


The Electrical World of June goth,
contains an interesting article by S.
D. Mott, of this city, on the subject
of mechanical fight. II is the first
part Of a Forthcoming series on this
interesting problem. The heading
of the article is " Proposed Meteor
illogical Machines For Raising Self
Registering Instruments in the
Higher Atmosphere by Orthogonal
Flight, and is intended for uses by
government weather bureaus as an
aid in the forecasting of the daily
probabilities. The device shown by
Mr.. Mott has been favorably re
viewed by several meteorologists
and mechanical experts. and is to be
submitted to the Washington bureau
by Farmer Dunn of New York. Mr..
Motifs attention to the subject was
aroused by the interest and sugges-
ton of DR.. Maury, the professional
head of the weather department of
the New York Herald. - Passaic
Daily News.

To keep Off flies, rub the horses
ears with elder leaves, one farmer
writes ms. OH of tar, mixed half
and holf with cottonseed oilor when
this mixture Is applied to the face
by hunters, to keep of black flies.
The horn fly, the worst Of all flies
that attack COWS, may be kept off by
applying with q large brush to backs
and sides Of animals. and especially
about the ears and horns, q mixture
of two parts of any cheap oil and
one part of thin tar (the latter is
cheaper than oil or tar and almost
as good), to which add little crude
carbolic acid. Prof. Weed of the
Mississippi station, who has made a
special study of the horn fly, recon-
mends a daily spraying of infested
cattle for eight days with kerosene
emulsion Zone part of sour milk and
two parts kerosene, thoroughly
mixed with a spray pump and then
diluted with nine parts of water).
If the job is thus thoroughly done
in June or July, ordinarily it will so
exterminate the horn flies that they
will not return during the season in
sufficient number to require repeti-
ton of the treatment Others who
have effective methods of protecting
stock against the scourge of flies will
confer a favor upon man and ami
mails by writing full particulars to
the PRESS.
