GREATEST BATTLESHTP
In World.-The North Dakota With
Turbine Engines Breaks Speed
Record For Her Glass.
New York World.

1
Dakota is the fastest battleship Of
the Dreadnought type afoat, as we'll
as one of the two most powerful bat
tleships in the world. Her screws
Standardization tests over the Rock
land measured mile course today de-
veloped a maximum speed of 1926
knots and an average of 21.833.
In attaining this surprising speed,
the turbine engines Of the North Da-
kota we're forced to the development
of more horsepower than has been
reached by any other battleship
! afoat. A maximum Of $3.50 horse
power was recorded, while 33,875
horsepower vas the mean amount.
The maximum number Of revolu-
tions Of her nickel composition pro-
pellers was 286 minute. It was
found that 263 revolutions in this
time were sufficient to maintain the
contract speed of 81 knots.
The North Dakota, by her perfor-
nance today, takes precedence as a
general frst-class battleship over any
other afoat. Her sister ship, the
Delaware, which was given her trials
over the same course on Oct. %, was
in uncertain possession of this honor
after her. trial performance, but the
figures recorded for the North Dako-
ia are decisive. There is but one
Dreadnought afoat who attainments
may exceed hers. This is the Nep-
tune, just launched for the British
navy. The Neptune, however, Will
have to attain to figures much in ex-
cess Of specifications to accomplish
this. The Bellerophon has made by
22.1 knots, as compared with the
North Dakota's 1925.
The tide was in the North Dako-
ta's favor and this IS not substracted
from the best figure. In the recorded
mean, or average, however; tidal cor
rections are made. In the five trials
over the mile course the records we're

recorded the North Dakota was also
undergoing two hours test for con-
sumption of oil and coal. The Del
aware and the North Dakota are the
first battleships built for the United
States navy to use the oil spraying
method. The showing is understood
to have been very satisfactory.
The Fore River Shipbuilding COM
pany, at Quincy, Mass, built the
North Dakota, which is the first
America battleship of the first class
to have turbine engines installed.
Capt. Edward G. Evans, who mar
rowly escaped death when the tug
Nezinseott was sunk off Cape Ann
several months ago was IN charge to-
day. A working crew of 400 men
pushed the vessel to her record per-
formance.
Beginning at 7 o'clock tomorrow
morning the North Dakota is to be
put through the second test, a four
hours run at 81 knots. The run
will end off Boston Light, where she
will anchor and prepare for her
twenty-four hours run at twelve
knots. Following this she will 60 un-
der another twenty~four hours test
at nineteen knots.
Within six months, it is expected,
the North Dakota and the Delaware
will take their places in the van Of

LESS THAN 100000 BALES.
President of National Ginners' Asso-
citation Says Most Southern States
Product Will Be Much Less
Than in Past Years.

Memphis, Tenn, Nov. 81. A.
Taylor, president of the National
Ginners' association, today issued
the following bulletin:
"Complete returns indicate max
imum crop of 9,760,0Oo bales, not in
cluding: linters or repacks. Minimum
figures 9,486,OOO.
"The heavy falling off is over the
belt except in Georgia and the Car
olinas, where there is about as good
a crop as last year on a little smaller
acreage.
Maximum report by States: Ala
bama $4,000; Arkansas $4,000;
Florida 10000; Georgia, 100000;
Louisiana $4,000; Mississippi $685.
900; Missouri and Virginia $4,000;
North Carolina, 648,OO0; Oklahoma
$4,000; South Carolina 1,l85,000;
Tennessee $4,000; Texas 100000.
Total 9,78O,0OO.
"The ginners say the small yield
is largely due to the smallness Of
,bolls and low yield Of line. As the
crop is so near ginned, we will prob
ably not make our December esti-
mate.'

INoTE that our Solons are amend
ing the game law-or, rather, are
~enacting a new game law, with
some of the old provisions incor-
porated in it. The game law, time
out of mind, has always been a fav-
orite subject for legislative tinker
ing, and SO l suppose the present
ripping up and putting down is but
natural. While they r att, per-
nit me to suggest a provision that
no man shall hunt game with dogs.
and that anyone gound guilty Of
putting a hound upon the trail of a
deer shall be given from two tc
five years in the pen. This may
seem drastic, but it is no more SC
considering the Nervousness O
the act-than many other provis'
ions in the proposed law. If W.
are going to '~'protect" game, let III
do SO in reality, and when we seel
''sport" by killing harmless, inof
fensiye animal, let us at least Civ
it a chance for it's life. If it es
capes, why, we can have som
more "sport" at another time.
