ENGINEERS VIEWS ON LOCK AND SEA
 LEVEL CANALS
Especial from United Press.)

New York, April 22.-"The Panama lock canal can be ready for use in five or six years, whereas to make a sea- level canal passable would require ten or twelve years from the present time'' John R. Freeman, distinguished hy- Massachusetts Institute of Technology and admittedly leading engineer in this and other countries.
 'The only advantage of lock canal is economy in time of construction that naturally results from a canal through the continental divide of lesser depth than the one necessary for a sea-level canaP'-Phillippe Bunau-Varilla, emin- ent French engineer. graduate of L'Ecole Polytchneque and a leader among continental experts.
 In the May Outlook these two men give the result of their personal in vestigation of the entire Panama Can al project and their views are so at variance that the entire controversy over the type of the canal is sure to be renewed by scientific bodies generally.
 Freeman declares the sea-level type is entirely out of the question because of it's enormous cost and also says that it would not carry so great traffic with so small chance Of ac- lock canal. He describes at great length the Gatun dam and shows that in his opinion it will be absolutely safe.
 'The lock canal project" he declares.
 
 Chagres river and transfers adangerous enemy to an excellent friend by creat- ing in the Chagres valley an artificial lake 163 square miles in area So feet above the sea, controlled by the great dam and spillway at Gatun- Enough is saved in excavating here to more than pay the cost of the lock system and makes the entire length of the ex- cayated channel about twice as wide as the proposed sea-level canal, saving five years time and five years use of s360, ,OO0 coo investment"
 Bunau-Varilla sums up the objec- tions to the 1ock-canal type in the fol- lowing arraignment: "When in use it may be crippled by the wrong manoeu- vres of warship and vessel in transit. It may be destroyed by dynamite laden ship exploding. May be cr1p- pled with a few sticks of dynamite held by desperate men. May be crip- pled in war time by airships or sub- marines. May be crippled by an earth quake In addition there are certain unavoidable limits to the life of lock canal"

calves are not confined they have access
to comfortable sheds and are furnished
with an abundance of clean bedding. Care
is taken of the feed box, salt is always &C
cessible and clover hay is placed where IT
can he nibbled. While no ~palnper!ng Is
done the aim of the feeder is to make the
ration appetizing and for this purpose
small quantities of alfalfa and cottonseed
meal are provided. The drinking Of ice
cold water is prohibited.
Ask the killer about yearlings and he
will promptly depreciate the haste with
which the feeder depletes his feed lot.
~"Iighty per cent of the 500 to ao-pound
cattle that come to Chicago simply need
more feed" said n Chicago butcher whose
special is hat kind of beef. IAN cattle
seem in better condition in the pasture or
feed lot than OF reaching the stock yards
and too many feeders do not know when
their stock is fit 10 ship. They watch mar
ket quotations, see that fat yearlings are
In demand at good prices and conclude TO
set some of that money without delay.
When they discover that they are worth
Is cents to 81 less than expected. their dis
approval is in evidence. Many OF them,
instead of realizing that the fault lies
with themselves. so home vowing never
feeding calves during the winter, result
stuff to market prematurely under the inn
preston that it Is finished. the average
handler OF yearlings makes a mistake at
both ends Of his feeding period. AS q rule
the yearling sent to the butcher before
September loses money because it has not
been decentl fattened and is only In good
feeder condition."
