WILL BUILD LARGER SHIP.
Lincoln Beachey VIII Navigate the
Air Successfully.

San Francisco, Oct. 24.-Lincoln
Beachey, the young San Francisco
machinist and aeronaut who made "a
successful voyages at the Portland ex-
position in the Baldwin airship, has
returned to his home in this city and
is preparing. in conjunction with
Baldwin, to build a much larger air
ship in which he will give exhibitions
In his flights at Portland Mr..
Beachey succeeded on every occasion
but two in returning to the point from
which he started, and on those two
occasions he got back four-fifths of
the distance. The flights ranged from
three to 16 miles in length. He says
he found no difficulty in sailing
against wind but his progress is, OF
course, slower.
The Baldwin airship is simple in
construction. The power is furnished
by two-cylinder motor cycle, driving
propeller IL feet in diameter, placed
in front of the ship and making 15C
revolutions a minute. The propeller
blows a strong draft against the rud-
der in the rear, which gives good
steerage for that reason.
Mr. Beachey says he can turn the
ship i'm its own length. He proposes
to build a 10 horsepower engine fol-
his new ship and says that a gas bal
of the same size as in the old shiT
will sustain the weight.

that they were in danger of all being
lost. However the last couple Of

is possible to get them over the noun

WILL TEST DRY FARMING.
One Hundred and Sixty Acres Located
Near Denver.

Denver will within "A year have a
large, model farm devoted TO the ex-
ploitation of the Campbell system of
dry farming. one hundred and sixty
acres will be purchased by the Camp
bell System Farming association in
the immediate vicinity Of the city,
expert agriculturists will be employed
and the whole work will be under the
supervision of Prof. Campbell, says
the Denver Post.
The intention is to prove to farm
ers of this section of Colorado and the
many visitors who come to Denver,
that the arid lands of the great plains
can be made fertile and that the pro-
cess can be reduced to a paying in
vestment.
This morning. escorted by 5. w.
Cantril. superintendent of the Denver
Tramway company, Mr.. Campbell,
President J. L. Donahue o fthe asso-
citation, and the board of five direc-
tors, We're taken in a special car to
Fairmount. At a point a short dis
tance south Of the Agnes Memorial
Home the Officers of the association
inspected a tract of dry land, which is
one of the parcels considered in the
proposed purchase. No conclusion was
reached, however, and the question
will not be definitely settled until the
nature of the subsoil is determined.
Work on the farm will begin in the
spring. and everything that is now
grown on irrigated lands will be cul-
tivated without the use of artificial
water supply. The products Of the
farm will he sold, and the scheme is
expected to reap considerable profits.
Mr.. Campbell left for his home in
Lincoln, Neb.. this afternoon. and on
his return i'm few weeks a more
thorough investigation will be made.

I'VE are not incorporated and carry
the insurance on a purely mutual ba-

amount equal to the average fire

ments pro rata based on the amount
of insurance carried by the members.
We confine the insurance entirely to
buildings and tents owned by mem
bers of the grange We do not insure
property of others, nor do we issue
livestock insurance or insurance on
crops.
THE grange is extending its work
gradually from county to county. This
year we are working into Walla Walla

is to extend the organization in as
compact form as possible: that is
not to have the oranges remote from
each other.
