LATEST FLYING MACHINE.

These wings are made Of hollow ribs
Of steel covered with very hne nnen,
rendered air-tight by a bath IN hqulo
rubber. They spread nineteen feet on
each side and are five feet broad.
The motive power or force that Wa's3
the wings up and down and forward
is a small, but very powerful, motor
driven by compressed, carbonic aclu.
The machine is steered by the tall
which consists Of two interactlng
blades which can be turned to EshI
or left, up or down.
The motor, which generates three
horse power, weighs but eight pounds.
The CARRYING power Of this machine IS
most remarkable, for If the wings nap
but seven times in five minutes it Will
bear a man weighing $50 pounds up
into the air. It is easily guided and de-
scends gently at the will Of the oper-
ator.
Hitherto experiments have been con-
Quoted merely to show the correctness
of the principles employed, but the in
ventor is now engaged in constructing
q still more perfect and lighter machine
with aluminium frame covered with
silk, by which he hopes to take longer
fights, remaining in the air as long as
he pleases and going in any direction
with or against The wind, just as the
stOrk does.

be plowed ana planted, except in some
western counties, where more rain is
needed.
Corr looks well and has good stands
except where worms have damaged it
on bottom laeds. While planting is far
from finished, some corn is receiving
its second cultivation.
Gotten is practically all planted. 1t

BIRD FLIGHT
The storl1 as a Model for Aerial
Navigation.

The latest flying machine is the IN.
vention of Herr Arthur Stencil, OF
Hamburg, Germany. Like many OF MS
predecessors, especially Lilienthal, ne
has made special study Of the flShI
of birds to guide him in bis construc,
ton work. The grace and power OF
the stork especially appealed to him.
and the resemblance which his ma
chine bears to that bird is easily noted
One of the chief problems In aerial
navigation has been that Of alighting
gently and at will. and this ne has
learned from the stork as 1t movers
over his nest. 1t rises and moves ror-
ward by the action Of the huge elastic
wings, which initiate faithfully the ac'
tiop Of q flying bird.
