B|RD-MEN TO SCOUT
DURING MANEUVER
Aeros Will Be Equipped with
Telephoto and Moving
Picture Machines.

STRATFORD, Conn, Aug. S.-AIany
new features will distinguish the
Connecticut maneuver campaign,
which begins Saturday. from the
war games that have gone before,
but nothing will illustrate up-to-date
warfare more strikingly than the fleet
of aeroplanes that will be employed.
For the first time, probably, in X
perimentaI warfare in this country
will be tested apparatus fixed on the
and moving picture machines. Most
of the work of the aviators will be
done about nightfall or at dawn. The
aviation section will also be used in
aerial scouting and reconnaissance
during the Institutional period from
the headquarters of the chief umpire
and by the Blue army during the
final three days. when actual raj
fare will be simulated by a theoreti-
cal collision of the ~contending forces.
Each side will have the use of a
machine. Specified instructions have
been drawn up governing the flights.
The pilot will rise to an elevation of
not less than 1000 feet above ground
before starting IN a scouting fight.
ZACH a%eroplane will be supplied with
a recording Paragraph with a six-hour
clock movement. and at the begin
ming of the reconnaissance the re-
cording instrument will begin its
work.

BABIES WELD SCEPTRE
FOR DAY in ATLANTIC CITY
Six Capture Prizes for Beau
ty, One for Weight.

ATLANTIC CITY, Aug. S.-Pretty
babies, thin babies. plump babies
n babies whose only reason for
appearing in the infant show yester-
day was their sartorial elegance were
in competition for the cups offered
by Young's Pier, where the congress
of infants was held, and seven of
the youngsters went home beaming
with joy, having captured prizes.
II was easy to decide on the pref
test baby. but when 1t came to pin
ming the blue ribbon on the baby of
the greatest avoirdupois even the
judges paused perplexed. One after
the other the competitors, clad in
almost nothing and exhibited like
baby fighters, were hoisted above the
heads of the spectators and the sem
timent of the audience asked for.
Finally the silver cup was awarded
TO a youngster as fat as butter, but
smaller than some of the others in his
class, his claim to the prize resting
on the fact that he was the youngest
of the lot.

TROOPS IMPATIENT
FOR WARS SIGNAL
Strategems Studied with Avid
ity in Anticipation OF
New York Siege.

Subsistence and the wherewithai to
fight a battle make up the chief
. problem for army officers today who
are p~erfecting arrangements for the
transportation of troops to Con-
necticut to join forces in repelling
the advance of the invading Reds
who are planning siege of New York
city.
The regular army, and more partic-
nlarly the volunteer militia, are
nightly Interested in bareback, fuel
forage and gunpowder.
The smell Of smoke and the noise
of battle is anticipated with feVerlsh
unrest, and from now until SATURDAY
morning. the time Of starting for the
scene of battle. the three pattahohs
of the First Regiment walt lmpa-
tiently the call to the front
viii Leave for Scene Saturday.
AT sunrise Saturday the sound OF
the reveille will echo through the
First Regiment Armory and the
twelve companies under command OF
Colonel John d. Fraser will prepare
for the trip to the Connecticut bat
tleground thai is to be the scene OF
the struggle between the invading
"Reds' and the American Blues.
The Connecticut m~aneuvers cam
paign. thus officially styled, will be-
gin next Saturday and the siege will
last ten days. A very comprehensive
idea of the scope of the maneuvers is
provided by completion of the plans
of the New York, New Haven and
Hartford Railroad Company for IAN
ding the soldiers.
The schedule calls for accommoda-
ions o 1900 men with 5000 civilian
employees and others who come with
the various commands, 341 wagon and
ambulances and 2,323 horses.
$4,000 to Take Part in "War."
These figures Indicate tina the
number of men engaged in the cam
paign will be close to 5000, as a
number of organizations will enter
the field of hostilities on foot.
Under orders from the Secretary of
War trains must be moved on time.
There will be sixty-five trains and
each train will have fifteen cars for
700 men. Other trains will be loaded
with supplies, artillery, pontoons and
other equipment. The schedule has
been planned out to the minutest de-
tail.
The famous description of war
given by General Sherman will not be
totally correct as applied to the i'm
pending campaign. 1t will not be a
cruel war entirely.
On certain nights when questions of
strategy are not too complex and
when officers and men are not bur-
dened with the maneuvers of war,
Brigadier- General Tasker H. Bliss,
commander-in-chief, will. vary the
program with a concert from one
of the bands at headquarters.
New Jersey STAFF.
Brigadier-General Edwin w. Hine,
commanding the First brigade. New

his personal staff Major Alexander

DR.. R. E. DOOLITTLE MAY
GET DR.. WILEY'S PLACE
May Be Made Permanent Chief
of Chemistry Bureau.

WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-Persist-
ent and apparently well-founded ru-
mors today have it that the Presi-
dent has virtually decided to appoint
DR.. r. e. Doolittle, acting chief of
the bureau of chemistry, department
of agriculture, to the permanent
leadership of that office.
DIR. Doolittle would thus step into
the shoes of the man for whom, it
is alleged, he helped make trouble.
and because Of whom he narrowly
escaped executive censure when the
storm of protest against the treat
ment of DR.. Harvey W Wiley finally
aroused the President to action.
No confirmation was obtainable at
the White House today, and DIR.
Doonttle himself denied any knowl-
edge of the pending nomination. 1t
is generally understood here. how
ever, that Doolittle has known for
some time his present position will
be made permanent.

Farmers! The Razor Is
Better Than the Spade!

better and thicker with frequent
close cutting. Whence 1t comes
about that a well-clipped lawn
frees itself Of weeds after a while.
II follows that. as substitute
for cultivation, the shaving OF the
soil with sharp hoes Is a method
Of treatment likely to be adopted.
But the prospect is that before very
long shaving machines, specially
constructed for the purpose, VIII be
made and sold. enabling the farmer
with a minimum Of labor to go over
his land with some form OF ap-
psratus that will be in effect con-
geries Of giant razors on wheels.
This theory has been put to the
test with an improvised machine
constructed along these lines and
the results obtained fully justified
the expectations Of the Govern
ment's agricultural experts
Perhaps the chief obstacle to the
introduction Of this new method,
however, will be the conservative
ness Of the average farmer who,
having been brought up-to the use
OF the spade, will hesitate TO sban-
don It for the ne&-fangled razor.
Notwithstanding the Governments
enthusiastic promises.
