A HOLE TO THE CENTER OF THE
@F4 EARTH

Many of the dreams of modern
science have come true, and the
world has become accustomed to
marvels In the way Of scientific &C.
complishment. But the most daring
dream VI all-sinking shaft to the
center Of the earth-contemplates a
thing SO stupendous as to make all
past achievements seem insignifi-
cant. This has been proposed in a
vague way several times In the last
half century; but Camille Flammarion
the French scientist and author, has
recently outlined specific plan for
setting the standing armies Of Eur
ope at work digging such p shaft,
the purpose being Ito tap the mex
haustible sources of heat and pow
er" stored beneath the surface of
the earth. In the June number OF
Popular Mechanics Magazine, J. r..
Murphy discusses some Of the prob
Items involved in such an undertake
ing. Mr.. Murphy says
In the present state of engineer
Z ing science an attempt to harness
these Herculean forces would result
In immediate destruction OF the APP
paratus used. But no man can say
what advances will be made in that
science in a single generation, or
what agencies may be discovered for
neutralizing the effect Of the high
Temperatures. which arb believed to
exist in the core of the earth. In
fact, it is more than possible that
within two hundred years, or even
half that time, trip to the center
Of the earth may be simply . matter OF
time cards and train rules, with no
more danger than now exists In sur
face transportation.
only one means OF transportation
would seem to be practicable--a spir-
al railway running downward on a
sharp grade around the edge Of the
shaft, supported on cantilevers firmly
anchored in the solid rock of the can
yon-like walls. For safe and rapid OPP
GRAFTON two tracks would be requir-
ed, one for downbound and the other
for up-bound traffic; while the curve
OF the track could not safely have
a radius of less than 500 #. This
would make necessary shaft 1000
#. in diameter"

tons accompany the article.

A Useful Suggestion.

The Business Mems league of Po-
teau, Okla, in co.. operation with the
farmers institute have held monthly
meetings in the city of Poteau during
the entire year. The days upon
which these meetings are held are
known all over the county as Far
mers' Day, and without a single eX-
ceptiOn they have been well attended
by the farmers of Leljlore county. 1t
has been the policy of those inter-
ested in the work to arrange for one
or more lectures along lines of agri-
cultural development on each of the
farmers days, and the influence of
this work is being felt in every part
of the county. The business men Of
Poteau point with pride to the splen-
did growth that the city is making,
and never fail to mention the splen-
did outlook for farmers of LeFlore
county. Every farmers institute and
every commercial club should get in
touch with Poteau and learn some
thing about the splendid work they
are doing.
