Smashing Aeroplane Records.

July 8 was notable day IN
aeronautics. AT Atlantic City
the record of perpendicular aero
plane attainment was broken by
Walter Brooklns, who attained
an altitude of 6100 feet IN a Wright
biplane. At Rheims there was a
triumph in horizontal movement.
One Frenchman made a world s
record for distance by covering
IN single flight $40 kilometres
Gil. IA miles, in 4 hours, 81 min
utes and As seconds. Another
Frenchman made a new speed re
cord by driving BlerIot mono
plane five kilometres (3.10 miles,
In 2 minutes and So seconds and
ten kilometres IN 5 minutes and
AZ seconds.
These twin achievements IN
navigating the air are chiefly in
terestlng in the bearing which
aerial movement must have IN
controlling future movement on
land and and water. There will
have to be many new departures
in adjusting our laws, our trading
our tariffs, our boundary regula
tlons, our works of defense on
land and sea, and our wars, of
fensive or defensive, to the exin-
gencles of overhead flight.

Last Saturday afternoon G. B.

EastOn who lives on the James
Henry farm near Knobsvllle,
make hay. Something got wrong
with the truck which prevented
the hayfork from working. Char
lie got on the fork and was drawn
up to the track next to the roof at
the top of the NOW to see what
the trouble was, and just as he
reached the highest point and
was about to make an examina-
ton the fork became unlatched,
Charley made sure catch on the
latch and was left suspended
high and dry. The only thing
left for him to do was to climb
backward out the track until he
came over the hay in the NOW and
then trust to dropping. This he
did and dropped about thirty
feet, with no apparent serious
result. 1t was a pretty close call,
however.

Information. The following re-
ply was sent:
''The potato leaves which you
sent to US show the chief injury
to be the Flea beetles, and, next
what is apparently the Early
Blight. The preventive would
have been to have sprayed with
Bordeaux mixture and arsenate
of lead. Even yet it is not too
late to prevent further damage
from these causes. Use three
pounds of bluestone and four
pounds OF lime in fifty gallons of
water, and to this add from two
to three pounds of arsenate of
lead or one half pound of Paris
green. Spray thoroughly, and
whenever 1t is washed off oy hard
rain, or once every two or three
weeks. If the arsenate of lead IS
used. 1t need not be repeated as
often as IN using Paris green
This will also poison the potato
leaves, SO that the Potato beetles
will not attack them"
