friction between his ideas and those

in the greatest harmony. He said there
were thousands upon thousands Of
acres impracticable to irrigate, but
which by methods of scientific farming
could be made to yield remuneratively
to their tillers. He said the sterling
worth of dry farming had been demon
strated time and again and pointed out

Submarines Long Voyage.

STOCKHOLM, Sweden-In the voy-
age of the new Swedish submarine
Hvalen, from Spezia, on the northwest
ern coast of Italy, where she was built,
to Stockholm, the Swedish crew have
shown that there are no better sailors
in the world, and that Sweden has the
right material for her feet.
The voyage was long ana arduous
one, extending over 5000 nautical miles,
but it was accomplished III about two
months, including various storpages at
intermediate ports, and everywhere the
vessel and her crew were we'll received.
On her arrival at the Swedish capital
on the fifth inst. the Hvalen was greet
ed by an enthusiastic crowd. TIE
Hvalen is the biggest and fastest sub
marine of the northern feet She re-
sembles the newest English type of
submarines. She has two prnpellers,
and her speed is IA knots. She e
equipped with four torpedo tubes.

Lieutenant Lahm's Orders.

According to officials at the war de-
partment there was nothing out of the
way or unusual in the detachment from
duty with the Signal Corps of First
Lieut.. Frank P, Lahm, who was directed
to join his regiment, the Sixth Cavalry,
States from service in the Philippines.
The orders were issued, it is explain.
ed, in conformity with paragraph 40,
article VI, Army Regulations. That
paragraph relates to details from one
branch of the army to another.
The official records show that Lieu
lviee continuously since August 90, 1908,
or more than six years. For three years
of that period he was on duty at the
Military Academy, for one year he was
on special duty at the French Cavalry
School at Saumur, and since September
II, 1907, he has been on duty with the
Signal Corps.
His regiment has just completed a
tour of service in the Philippines and
: will return to the United States next
month. Because of the fact, and the
provisions of the regulations, it is
stated, the authorities deemed it ex
pedient to have Lieutenant Lahm re
join his regiment.
1t was further explained that the or
ders involve no possible reflection OF
Lieutenant Lahm, or indeed en- any Sat
; associated with him in the aeronautit
experiments, the fact of the matter be
ing that the original detail to the Sigma
CORPS was in practical contravention O
