on q fixed pivot on the gun carriage
or by altering the direction of the
carriages, would be out of place here
as being too slow. So Krupps. in the
case of balloon artillery mounted on
wheels, have designed the wheels so
as to be pushed forward out of the
way, with handles attached to either
axle, which in couple Of simple rev.
olutions can alter the entire direction
of the gun. For fortresses the bal
loon guns can be mounted with other
ordnance on a pivot. and the same
mounting is used for balloon-artillery
fixed on the platform of armored mo-
tor cars, which would pursue the air
cruiser until suitable range was OBJ

Russia Leads the World in Wheat
Production.

The United States has lost its place
as the greatest wheAt-prOducing e0un-
try in the world, and Russia has won
that distinction. Even though last year
the total yield Of wheat in the United
States was next to the largest in the
history Of American agriculture, the
crop of 1901 only having exceeded it,
Russia last year produced the remark
ably large harvest of $4,000, 900 BUSH
els, which constitutes the largest crop
ever harvested by any country and &c.
600, 100 bushels greater than that of
the United States.
The great yield of Russia for 1909
as shown by the revised official returns
received by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture exceeds by more
than 100. 600, 900 bushels the previous
record of Russia. Only twice has the
wheat production of Russia surpassed
that OF the United States, the first . in
| 1904. when the crop here was a partial
failure. About one-fourth of the Rus
sian wheat crop is exported.
IA Rye was grown on $4,000, 900 acres
in Russia last yaer. Rye is the chief
bread grain of Russia.
Returns received by the Department
OF Agriculture from dozen countries
which in the preceding year produced
over four-ffths of the so-called world
wheat crop. exclusivesof the mid-sea-
son crops. of linda and the Southern
Hemisphere, show in the aggregate a
net gain in 1909 of 387. 600, 900 bushels.
or nearly Is per cent, over the yield
of the same countries in 1903. This
would indicate that the sU-called
worlds production last year was ap-
proximately 2.l50. 600, 600 bushels. All
but three of the countries heard from
report an increase. Those with short
crops are Germany. Hungary and Bos-

which brought the piece into populari-

that of Billy Hargraves, a football
player, who loses four front teeth in a
game. He retires for several months
during which time it is given out that
he is suffering from his accident, the
nature of which is not divulged He
sets sail aboard the steamship -FlOri-

sister, Alice, who is with him as a
sort of bodyguard, to relieve him
from the necessity of talking, for be

set of false teeth. He meets as pas

well as Sam Eustace. Both Billy and

He is unable to proceed and Beatrice

Hargrave's character Unable to utter
any but cultural sounds, Billy takes
the abuse in silence. How play can

George Cameron, the aathor, has done.
The farce by the way, was originally
taken from the playlet which was seen
for several years in vaudeville. The
Shuberts saw its laughing possibilities
and commissioned Mr.. Cameron to dc
the sketch into three act farce. All
of the scenes are laid aboard the
steamship Florida" and while the
play centers about Hargraves, his sis
ter, Eustace. Mrs. SloaGce and her
daughter, there are about twenty other
characters who figure in the amusing

WALDO CONTENDER FOR STATE GOLF
 CHAMPIONSHIP

New Haven, July 8.-The title Of
 tate golf champion will rest on one of the four following players: R. H. Hovey, of Hartford: E. S. Parmelee, of this city; B. P. Merriman, of Wa terbury; or c. G. Waldo. Jr., of Bridgeport, for this quartet came out yesterday in the first and second rounds of the big tournament with flying colors. Today Hovey and Wal do will meet and Parmelee and Champion Merriman will do battle contend for the title on Saturday.
 Hoveys great uphill game yester- day with Roger S. White 2d, which the Hartford man won on the 21st hole, was one of the star bits of golf of the tournament so far. At the 17th hole the Hartford man was two down and the match looked sure for White, for he only needed to halve one of the two remaining holes, but the grand game of Hovey won him the 7th and 18th holes and the match was all square, only to be won on the third extra hole by Hovey.
 Interest yesterday, of course, cen tered in the play of the first 16, the first round of which resulted as fol- lows: W. Austin, Norwich, beat L. N. Pierson, Wee Burn. 3 up, 9 to go; c. c. Waldo, Jr., Brooklawn, beat H.H. Warford, Greenwich, up, 2 to go; R. H. Hovey, Hartford, beat R. s. Wite 2nd, New Haven, 1 up in 21 holes; s. J. Graham, Greenwich, beat R. Tilney.
