ORLEANS IS GOAL OF
ATLANTIC AERONAUTS
FLY FROM TENERIFFE
A chicaeoan Will Attempt An Ocean
Air Voyage To The Crescent City
Early Next ear.

New York, Oct 22.-An airship
voyage across the Atlantic ocean
from Teneriffe to New Orleans, is
the aim of Joseph Bruckec, of Chi
cago, who is constructing at Munish,
a great dirigib!e balloon which he
believes will accomplish the trans
Atlantic air voyage at which Walter
Wellman and his daring associates
failed. Brucker has been working
for more than year at his venture,
and now the airship, 1.-THE Suchard, -
+ Is practically ready for sailing. The
outfit will be shipped to the Canary
Islands at the end of this year, and
the start for New Orleans will be
made early in 1911.
Brucker's first scheme was to start
from Cadiz. The adoption of Tene
rife as starting point will save hin
700 miles of travel over the ocean.
The Suchard is 200 feet long and
The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1910-10-22

has $500 cubic meters gas capacity.
Two 2O0-horse power motors will
drive the airship by means of two
propellers. The balloon will carry
35-man lifeboat with a gasoline equip
ment.
Brucker hopes to sail with favoring
northeast trade winds to Porto Rico
or Hayti.
If necessary he can make a descent
there and then continue his voyage
over Cuba to New Orleans. He has
an oval method of overcoming the ef-
feet of the suns rays on the balloon,
which in the case of the Wellman ex-
petition sent the America bounding
up to a height of $4,000 feet He
proposes to meet this not by an
equilibrator, as planned by Melvin
Vaniman, but by filling tanks with
water to act as ballast during the
warm hours of the day and emptying
| them again as the cool of evening
comes on. To do this he proposes to
ship an automatic pump attached to
the engine of the ship which will take
in and discharge water through a
long hose hung from the lower part OF
the balloon.

ees who have more than two children.
The increased cost of living has pro-
duced a marked tendency toward the
two child standard in German towns.

Then there are preparations In re-
gard to making or changing coats Of

C0NSTANTIN0PLE WAGING
WAR ON CANINE H0RDES.
Former SuItan's Superstition Cast
Aside at Last.

To imagine Constantinople without
its hordes Of prowling street dogs is
difficult, but the authorities of the OF
toman capital have started in earnest
to rid the city of one of its most no.
torious features.
Last year a contractor offered to pay
the Turkish treasury lump sum for
the privilege of clearing the city
streets of dogs. What he wanted to
do with them did not transpire; per-
haps he expected to recoup himself by
selling the skins for gloves. Anyhow
his proposition met with no favor To-
day the Turks would have gladly ac-
copied his proposal, but no dog buyers
were forthcoming, SO they tackled the
question themselves.
Detachments of policemen and
sweepers armed with lassoes and
wooden tongs and followed by q train
of dust carts have gone forth by night
and raided the unsuspecting beasts.
A few were spared at the intercession
of individuals who agreed to look
after the dogs. The others were driv-
en- away TO an unknown fate.
At the time of the Russo-Turkish
war q large number of dogs were col
lected and put on Bulwer island, one
of the Princes islands in the sea of
Marmora, so called after a former
English ambassador who once owned
q country house there.
No one took care Of the starving
creatures, and the result was that they
began to devour each other before the
work of transporting the whole ca
nine contingent was complete. Then
news came Of a crushing defeat of the
Turks.
The sultan took II as a sign OF divine
wrath and fastened to sign an order
for the exiles to be taken back to
town. Lately they have been great
er nuisance than ever.

Much Fertilizer Needed.

Although fertilizers must be used in
greater quantity than in the states
named, Professor William p. Brooks.
director of the Massachusetts agrcul-
tural experiment station, points out
that "on many soils in Massachusetts
an average expenditure of about 500
an acre for fertilizers will insure an
annual product of sixty to seventy
bushels.
"This is at the rate Of only about
30 cents a bushel for corn produced,
but IN Massachusetts the slower
is worth more as forage than in the
western states"

Want More Corn Raised.

Want More Corn Raised,
zone of the Weaknesses of farming
in New England says j. Lewis Els
worth, secretary Of the Massachusetts
state board of agriculture and one of
the charter members of the new cor
poration, lis the failure Of the farmers
to raise their own corn"
Every little corn is raised in Massa-
chusetts. We want to get the farmer
interested in this so that he will raise
his own corn. Formerly a farmer
would buy his corn. since that was
cheaper than raising 1t. Now the
price of corn has increased by 100 per
cent since 1896, and he is not buying
so much"
The officers of the exposition, in urg-
ing a more general production Of corn,
explain that Massachusetts is exceeded
in value of product per acre by only
one state-Connecticut. Despite the
fact that the cost of production is
probably higher in Massachusetts than
in the corn belt Of the Mississippi val
ley, there is no doubt, they say, that
corn can be raised with profit In this
state. for the average price per bushel
is higher than in most states.
In 1905 the average farm prices of
corn were as follows In the United
States as n whole, 2S cents; in Iowa.
"a cents; in Illinois, SO cents; in In
diana, SO cents; in Massachusetts, 20
cents.
