A Forgotten Genius.

The history of wireless telegraphy
would not be complete without some
mention Of Joseph Henry, Americas
greatest scientist, for it was he who
first, in 1912, discovered the oscillatory
character Of certain electric discharges
and who showed that these oscillations
produced disturbances which could by
suitable receivers be detected at dis
tances Of many rods and through in
%tervening buildings, writes Professor
Joseph Ames in The Review Of Re-
views. He even arranged an apparatus
on this principle to respond to the
lightning discharges of distant storms.
The great genius of Henry was never
0 apparent than in his investiga-
ton of electrical discharges and their
oscillatory nature. 1t is a lasting tes-
timony to the ignorance among Ameri-
cans of their own great men that the
name of Joseph Henry was not includ-
ed in the first 50 selected for the Hall
of Fame of the uation.

to wait the summons which will
come sometime this month to start
on his journey to Crefeld. Germany,
where he will succeed Hon. Julian
Phelps as United States Consul. Mr..
Wallace went to Washington to pass
the examination which is required of
appointees to positions such as his
and, as stated in this paper of Satur-
day, he got through swimmingly. He
was treated in a most cordial manner
by the officials of the department of
state and assured that his commission
will be forwarded as soon as President
Mckinley returns from Canton, Ohio,
where he is now resting. He found
Washington the hottest place he was
ver in and we understand vouches
for the story to the effec; that an egg
was fried on the pavement there last
week in six minutes. Mr.. Phelps res
ignation was written to take effect on
the first of August and it is quite
likely that Mr.. Wallace will be able
to get started on his trip to relieve
him by that date. All of Mr.. Wal
lace's family, with the exception of
Ross Wallace, who is deputy county
clerk, will accompany him to Creield."

How Banana Trees Grow.

1t is a peculiar fact that but one
bunch of bananas grows on a tree.
After the fruit has been cut the tree is
then cut down to the ground, and from
the stump another tree sprouts which
bears another bunch the following
year. The greatest trouble of farmers
is to keep the farms clear of sprouts.
They shoot up from the roots of the
tree for Il radius Of ten feet and grow
like weeds.
AS the fruit is cut from the trees it
is placed on the backs of little pack
donkeys and transported in this way
to the coast. One donkey can carry
from three to six punches, according to
the size of the punches and the dis
lance from the coast. In the season at
Baracoa there are more than 5000 don
keys that stretch along in a line for
miles, plodding toward the coast with
their loads of bananas.

YOUR WATCH.

In laying aside a watch be sure that
it rests upon its case.
A watch should be wound up every
day at the same hour.
Avoid putting it on a marble slab or
lei anything excessively cold.
If suspended, the action of the bal
ance may oscillation, which will
interfere with its going.
A sudden change Of temperature, con-
tracing the metal, may sometimes
cause the handspring to break.
The cold also coagulates the oil, and
the pivots and wheels work less freely
and affect the regularity of the time
keeping.
To keep your watch clean take care
that the case fits closely and see that
the watch pocket is kept free from
fluff, which is SO often given off by
Innings.
Avoid sudden Jars and falls, for even
If it does not seem to affect it at the
moment, a watch will resent rough
handling by becoming gradually "out
Of order" without apparent cause.

Another Factory For Iowa City
Company Organized to Build the Barry Four
Row Corn Planter.

Company Organized to Build the Barry Four
Row Corn Planter.
The Barry Four Row Corn Planter
company ofIowa City was organized
today and articles of Incorporation
framed and adopted. The officers are:
President, f. X. Stebbins; secretary,
w. F. Murphy; treasurer, Milton
Remley. These with r. V. Barry and
w. H. Bailey, constitute the board of
directors.
1t will be remembered that the
Barry planter was being manufacture
ed in the old packing house building
which was destroyed by fire last Aug
ust, and this company is a reorganiz-
alton to go ahead with the manufact-
ure of the machine. Tn that disas-
trous fire which also destroyed the
wire works and fence factory, every
vestige of the Barry planter was CON
sumed. The models, patterns, ma
! chinery and all was a total loss.
This new company has purchased
from R. V. Barry, the inventor, and
the owners of the letters patent on
the corn planter, and they have con-
tracted to build 100 planters to be
ready for the season of 1902. They
are negotiating for a site upon which
a factory will be erected, and hope to
have a building started in ten days
time. No site has yet been decided
upon but it is thought that a piece of
ground can be procured from the B.
q. r. Il N. Ry. company on Gilbert
street.
The Barry planter has been demon
strated to be a marked success and the
newly organized company will have
ample capital to push its manufacture
and sale.
The above is a clipping from the
Iowa City Republican and regards
r. V. Barry, who formerly resided
east of the Station.

Size of PropelIers.

The small size of the screw" saws a
boiler maker, lis not due to the percep-
ton of any inventor of its greater eff
feet as compared with 4 larger one, but
purely to accident. When | first engag-
ed in the machinery business, screws
for steamers were made as large as
possible, it being the theory that the
greater the diameter the higher tl,e
speed. A vessel was placed on Lake
Erie with a screw so large that it was
deemed best to cast each blade in two
parts and then weld them together.
During a storm all these blades of the
propeller broke at the welding, reduc-
ing the diameter by more than two
thirds.
'To the surprise of the captain the
vessel shot forward at a speed such as
had never been attained before. Engi-
neers then experimental with smaller
propellers and discovered that thew
were much more effective than large
ones. Had it not been for that accident
we might have gone on using large
blade screws to the present day"
