High Court VacateS
Wrights' Injunction

NEW YORK. June 15-Orville and
Wilbur Wright lost a point yesterday
in their court fight TO protect the
patents covering their aeropane from
alleged infringements by Glenn IL.
Curtiss and Louis Paulhan, the French
aviator. BY unanimous decision the
United States court of appeals vacat-
ed the temporary injunctions obtained
by the Wright company against Paul
han and the Herring Curtiss Co. pend
ing trial of suits which will determine
whether there is any infringement In
fact
The decision cites that the only
question involved is whether in the
defendants aeroplanes the tendency
to twerve or spin is counteracted by
n sans of vertical rudder.
What is regarded as the most i'm
portant feature of the vacation OF the
fnjunctions Is the effect upon the
agreement between the Wrights and
the Aero Club OF America. regulating
aviation meets In this country. 1t Is
believed that agreement is abrogated
by the court action and this will open
the doors of America to all aviators.

TOPEKA. Kans.. June Isl. c.
Mars, driving the Curtiss biplane
"Skylark" left Topeka at 5l5 a. M

City. When fourteen miles from
Topeka, the motor went wrong and
Mars was compelled 10 descend. Al

tends TO land at Overland Park. a
suburb OF Kansas City.
The start was made under ideal
weather conditions. Hardly enough
wind was blowing 10 stir the leaves
OF the trees about the aviation field
A big crowd was on hand to see Mars
off and after preliminary tinkering
with his engine he got away TO fine
start, sailing due east. After flying
about ten minutes, Mars landed at a
farmhouse, saying he wanted TO get
q fresh start. His engines were work
ing in fine shape at this time but after
passing Newman, Ia miles from To
peka, he descended again. The
engines were working badly but he
resumed his flight within few min
utes.
After passing Perry, Kas., Mars
landed again at Midland. a village
just north OF Lawrence, Kansas. at
$50. He was still having trouble
with the engines. This was his third
stop
The prize offered for the flight is
$4,000.
Kansas City is g. miles by railroad
from Topeka and about So miles by
airline. Lawrence. where the first au-
thorized stop was allowed, is about IL
miles, airline. from Topeka. Mars
made poor time on the early part OF
his flight owing to delays caused by
engine trouble.
Mars covered the Is miles from
Newman to Midland In "a minutes,
but narrowly escaped falling into the
Kaw river when crossing that stream.
The wind has sprung up and Is very
choppy. In making the landing at
Midland the machine struck the
ground with considerable force and
Mars was compelled 10 stop for re-
pairs. He says ne will resume his

the country less than Ave years and
81 per cent less than 10 years.
Only 20 per cent of the immigrant
workmen," says the report. had been
engaged by mining before coming to
the United States.
THE fact that such a great major
ity OF mine employees had had no ex
perience in mining is suggested as &
probable cause OF many serious acct
dents.'
Seventy per cent OF the $4,000 min
ers were found TO be earning 81 a day
or over. but owing to irregularity OF
employment the monthly or yearly
wage was relatively much lower. In
2.371 families the average income was
$37.5 month. During the year GOV.
cred by the investigation only 1913 per
cent Of the men worked full time.
Company stores flourish In the same
old way. Where the stores are pre-
hibited by law they are organized
separately from the mining company
but have the same stockholders.

WINTER wheat YIELDS WELL
EXPERIENCE OF Benz. WEBB

Benjamin Webb of Richardton has
lived in Stark county 20 years and he is
just finding out how to farm the fertile
acres of Western North Dakota. He has
a section and a half of land, almost
1000 acres, and he thinks $50 an acre
is not too high a price to place on a part
of it at least. He has springs that
furnish running water for the farm
buildings the year round and he is To-
Gated very close to Richardton. making
the farm as convenient as one could
ask.
The past year Mr.. Webb raised quite
a quantity of winter wheat that gave
him a yield of 20 bushels to the acre,
and had it not been for the unusual hot
spell in June. he believes that the yield
would have been IS 10 40 bushels. The
winter wheat was put in with a disc
drill on wheat land stubble which gave
Is bushel yield of spring wheat in a
1909.
A field of spring wheat sown on sum-
mel fallow land also gave an averge
yield of 20 bushels. which was particu-
larry good for this year.
The winter wheat sells for a few cents
per bushel less in market than the
spring wheat, but it natures about a
month earlier than the spring sown
wheat and in Mr.. Webb's opinion will
ordinarily yield from S to is bushels per
acre more than the other wheat. Hence
he considers it profitable. and has seed
ed II acres of wheat this season. also
26 acres of winter rye. The Grain is
looking we'll and the owner expects good
returns from these fields another season.
The winter rye is an experiment with
Mt. Webb. but he thinks it will prove q
good crop like the wheat.
