The complete success Of the new
fuel while on the 2GjO.mile public
test and the advantages gained
through it's use were well described
in the following dispatch which the
correspondent of the New York Sun
sent to his paper at the conclusion OF
the tour:
"a feature Of the tour which was
watched with special interest was
that the White Steamer used kero-
sene, or coal OIL as fuel instead Of
gasoline. The new fuel worked
splendidly throughout the 2650-mile
journey, and all claims made in it's
behalf were fully proven. First of
all, as regards cheapness, the White
driver secured kerosene all along the
route from cents to 10 cents cheap
er per gallon than was paid for gaso-
line. Secondly, the new fuel was
handled without any precautions, and
it was not unusual to see kerosene
being poured into the fuel tank while
the crew of the car and an interested
crowd stood by with lighted cigars
and cigarettes. At the finish of the
tour, the White was the only car per.
mitted by the authorities to enter
| Convention Hall, where the technical
examination took place, without
draining it's fuel tank. Thirdly, the
new fuel proved to be absolutely
without smoke or smell. Fourthly
kerosene could be purchased at what
ever part of the route was most con,
yenient, and not once during the trip
| through the ten States of the Middle
West was there found a grocery store
where kerosene was not readily and
cheaply obtaihable. Finally, the
The Montgomery tribune., 1909-09-10

The most interesting announce.
ment ever made in connection with
the automobile industry was un-
doubtedly that made a month or two
ago to the effect that the new models
Of the White Steam Cars could be run
on kerosene, or coal oil, instead of
gasoline. Everyone at once recog-
niZed that the use of the new fuel
would add materially to the advan-
tages which the White already pos
sessed over other types of cars.
There were some people, however
who were sceptical as to whether or
not the new fuel could be used with
complete success, and, therefore, the
makers Of the White Car, the White
Company, of Cleveland, Ohio, deter
mined to make a public demonstra-
tion of the new fuel in the 1909 Gid
den Tour.
From the standpoint Of the public,
no test more satisfactory could have
been selected. First of all, the dis
tance covered on the Glidden Tour,
from Detroit to Denver and thence to
Kansas City, was 1850 miles. This
was certainly more than sufficient to
bring out any weaknesses, if such had
existed Still more important was
the fact that the car was at all times
while on the road under the supervi-
sion of observers named by those
who entered other contesting cars.
Therefore, it would have been impos-
sible for the driver OF the White to
have even tightened a bolt without
the fact being noted and a penalty in.

Pests Worried by Pests.

Since the Dutch philosopher Leu
wenhoek discovered that the pupa of
the flea was sometimes preyed on by
the larvae of mite, it has been well
known that various small insects have
their external parasites. And re-
cent communication to the Complies
Rendus of the Biological society of
Paris by NJ. Bruyant, shows that many
mosquitoes carry about mites in the
larval stage. Those described belong
to four different genera. They prob
ably feed on the integumentary
structures of the mosquitoes.

CAUSE SLEEP BY ELECTRICITY
New Discovery by Frenchman Ex
pected to Be Of importance in
Surgical Operations.

The new discovery Of causing sleep
by the use of electricity maGe recent
ly at the School of Medicine at
Nantes, France, by Prof. stephen Lc
due, it is believed will be of great
Importance in surgical operations.
Numerous successful experiments
were made on dogs and rabbits at
first, afterwards on human beings,
Prof. LeduC himself submitting to the
test.
1t is stated that the discovery pro.
ceeded from study of the effects of in
termittcnt currents and from the
knowledge that the skull and brain
offer but little resistance to the cur.
rents. With periods of only one one.
thousandths of a second, the current
intensity is applied for onc.tenth OF
the period and turned off nine.tenths
OF the period the interruption being
timed by cOmmutator or electric
motor driven interrupter. 1t is stated
that for a human Ueing n current OF
80 volts and four milli-ampres is ap
piled intermittcntly for the minutest
fraction Of second.
There are two electrodes applied to
the skull in special manner, the
points of application being first care
fully shaven. The application of the
currents is not in any way danger
Gus, and no i'll effects have been
noted, even when the experiment has
lasted for hours.
1t is maintained that electric sleeI
is better than anaesthcsia by chloro
form, morphine or ether, which are
not only disagreeablc but sometimes
dangerous or even fatal, while the
awakening is usually painful. Dur
ing electric sleep the patient is per
fectly quiet, and as soon as the elec
trodes are withdrawn the awakening
occurs as one arousing from sleep
without pain or discomfort of any
kind. The sensations are quite agree
able after the operation, the mint
working more rapidly and more clear
| ly, while in addition there is a sense
OF increased physical vigor.
The Montgomery tribune., 1909-09-10

amount of fuel used on the trip
showed that kerosene is at least
fifteen per cent more efficient, gallon
for gallon, than gasoline. The car in
other respects made most creditablo
showing, and there was the usual riv-
airy among the observers TO be as
signed to the White so that they
could ride with the maximum OF COM
fort. The only adjustments or re-
pairs charged against the car during
the long trip were tightening a lubri-
Gator pipe and wiring damaged mud
guard. These penalties were not in
fiicted until more than 1000 miles
had been completed with an absolute-
II perfect score"
A particularly interesting feature
Of the new White Steamer is that
either kerosene or gasoline may be
used as fuel. The necessary adjust
Eents so that the fuel may be changed
from kerosene to gasoline, or vice
versa, may be made in a couple Of
minutes; but so completely successful
has kerosene proved to be, that it is
not believed that any purchasers will
care to use gasoline.
The White Company report that
the demand for their new steam cars
both the s20O0-model and the
O00-model-exceed their most san
guine expectations. It is evident that
the combination Of steam-the pow
er which everyone understands and
has confidence in-with kerosene
the fuel which everyone has on hand
and can handle without any danger
| is thoroughly appreciated by
up.to-date purchasers OF automo-
biles.

New Scotland Project.

A great canal across Scotland, to
cost about $90,OOO,OOO, and to be large
enough to accommodate the largest
battleships of the British navy, is be.
ing advocated by national canal as,
sociation of Great Britain. The route
being most discussed is from Grange,
mouth on the Forth river to Loeb Lo.
mond, up that lake and across a mar
row neck of land to Loeb Long, and
through the latter to the Firth of
Clyde. The argument for this route
Is military, its strategic Importance
being considered the greatest.
