Description Of Machine In Which Or.
Vile Set q New Mark.
Orville Wright's aeroplane, In which
he broke all records by steering a pas
senger carrying flying machine around
the Fort Myer parade ground at Wash
1ngton for one hour, twelve minutes
and forty seconds, consists Of two
planes, one five feet above the other
and measuring thirty-six feet from tip
to tip. The seat for the operator is
placed in the center of the lower plane,
OF to the left of the motor. The pas
senger sits on the other side of the
motor.
The motor itself is a product Of the
Wright brothers-a four cylinder thir-
ty horsepower water cooled gasoline
engine. The gasoline is pumped d.
rectly into the intake pipes. there be-
ing no carbureters.
The tips Of the planes are flexible
for the space Of about twelve feet. By
means of lever they can be turned
In curve resembling heliocoid, the
wings moving in opposite directions.
A second lever controls the twin rud-
ders. which are supported by a brace
ten feet from the rear of the planes.
By working the two levers together
the equilibrium of the machine is
maintained.
Ten feet in front Of the operators
seat two planes resembling 4 box kite
about fifteen by three feet are used
for controlling the ascent and descent.
Two propellers about nine feet In dia-
meter and revolving In opposite d.
rections are used to thrust the aero
plane forward.
The weight of the machine, includ-
Ing both operator and passenger. is a
tride under 1900 pounds.
BY his achievement Mr.. Wright, who
was accompanied in his fight by Lieu
tenant Frank F. Lahm. exceeds the
requirements Of the war departments
specifications by more than twelve
minutes and breaks the worlds rec
ord for fight with a passenger by
three minutes and five seconds.

CrowIess Roosters.

Herbert Joyce Of Springdale. Wash,
has for years been experimenting with
q peculiar breed Of poultry which he
says he brought from one Of the Sand
wich group of islands. in the Pacific
ocean. When he first got hold Of
the wild birds they made a noise not
unlike the hiss of a goose. He crossed
his wild birds with various types of
domesticated poultry and has at last
obtained rooster perfect in all re-
spects with the exception Of the crow
lng ability.

FRUIT AND MELONS
 GROWN IN VALLEY
PeddIers Are Reported to Be Knocking
 ome Products.

It is reported that the fruit peddlers about the city, notably the Chinese, are giving the valley fruit, especially peaches, black eye by saying they do not compare in quality with the Verde peaches, which the peddlers can secure a little cheaper and market at the same price. Without any desire to detract from the merits of the Verde peaches, which are all right and for which it is hoped there will be an am pie market found here, the assertion that they are superior to the valley fruit must be denied. It might be that some particular variety will grow better there than here, as some va rietics will grow better here than there. but taking the peach family as a whole it is not believe that better fruit can be produced anywhere than here in the Salt River valley.
 Attention was called yesterday by Ernie Hall of the Hall Bros. nursery to these stories in circulation and also to some fine fruit he had brought to town. In all fairness it must be- cOntended that in those varieties now ripeninS Mir Halls fruit as well as that of q dozen other valley growers who might be named is equal to anything that can be found anywhere, either as to size or quality of flavor. If the peddlers can make more money on Verde fruit than on valley fruit that is their privilege, but they should confine themselves tn the selling of what they have and not try to convince their patrons that val ley peaches are not to be had, for there is considerable crop of peaches depending on the home market
 Mir. Hall also remarked concerning his cantaloupe experiment here this year. He has planted and grown limited amount of cantalOupes of new variety that is now being grown considerably in Colorado and which he expects to plant more extensively am other year, although he is going into

stood that the prices received for the Glendale melons have been satisfactory. Cantaioupe prices are an exceedingly variable quantity, being determined by the condition of the local eastern mar ket at the time of their arrival. The fact that melons at times command very low prices is no reflection on their quality, but is merely a record of misfortune for the growers. The rec ord for the entire season, however, shows the Arizona melons to have commanded higher prices than those from any, other section. The Glendale growers are encouraged by their sue cess this year and will all have out the same crop for the next season.
