troduced Dean G. R. Miller OF tho
Teachers College at Greeley who en-
Iightened those present on The Col
Iege Man and the Community" Dean
Miller possesses a splendid appear
ance and talks straight from the
shoulder in q clear. even manner and
speaks out splendid ideas with almost
every sentence.
Last night he made a great impress
sion upon his auditors by his direct
and forceful delivery and the excel
lent thought that lay behind that de-
livery
Prof. Miller said that the college
: man was just coming into his owa
In the community. His college educa-
ton naturally meant that he was fully
equipped 70 lead In the things that
meant the most for the community IN
wn1ch he ffsed- and he further stat
1 ed that the man thus equipped should
not fail to assume his duties in regard
to his community.
He spoke at length on the function
Of the university in the state and IN
the community And he gave an apt
example BY citing the University OF
Wisconsin Dean Miller stated that
II any community or city or town in
Wisconsin had problem before them
in civic engineering. agriculture or
whatever it might be. they Invariably
sent to the University OF Wisconsin

fourteen-ineh guns had d 30 per cent
greater accuracy than the twelve-inch
weapons.
The tendency to increase the caliber
of the big guns is universal. Germany
is turning out a f~ifteen-inch weapon,
which weighs eighty-two tons and
fires l,675-pound projeetiles. France is
arming her latest ships with 13.4-inch
guns, firing 1,332-pound proiectiles,
and next years ships will probably
mount 15.7-inch weapons. Japan is
building a battleship to carry ten
f~fteen-ineh guns, and has ordered
three more vessels TO accommodate
weapons of the same caliber. The lat
est battleships of Italy and Austria
are to be similarly armed.
The British battleships on which
these monster guns will be mounted
are the Queen Elizabeth, the Warspite,
the Barham and the Valiant. These
are what are known as fast battle
ships, as although super-dreadnoughts
with a displacement of about 81 800
tons, their designed speed will be
twenty-five knots. Each of these ships
is costing ~$11,250,O00, and it was ves-
sells of this type that Mr.. Borden pro-
posed Canada should build for the
common defense of the empire.

IMMENSE GUNS FOR
FUTURE BATTI.ESHIpS

1t appears to have been definitely
decided that the latest British dread.
noughts will be armed with fifteen.
inch guns. Some conception of the
magnitude and power of this weapon
can be gathered when we say that it
weighs ninety-six tons and fires a shell
of 1850 pounds, which is about two
and one-third times as heavy as the
shell fred by the first ~dreadnought. 1t
is said that the increase in the size
and power of the gun is not due to any
desire of a longer range. The present
t~welve-inch gun can penetrate twelve
inches of hardened steel at $1,000
yards. This distance is half as great
again as that over which battle prac-
tice is usually carried out. The ff-
teen-inch weapon weighs so per cent
more than the twelve-inch gun, and
the latter can be fred more rapidly
to be accurate, as opposed to IL for
the fifteen-inch gun. There is one fea-
ture in which the larger weapon is
said to excel, and that is that the in
creased caliber tmeans improved ac-
euracy in shooting. Experiments car
ried out in the United States showed
that at a distance of 10000 yards

Eel Worm Reported
In California Vegetables

The eel worm which eats holes in po-
tatoes, and thereby once caused a quar-.
antine in California against Nevada
grown tubers. may some day be the
means of the exclusion of California
potatoes and vegetables from the Ne
vada market. Through investigations
by Prof. Charles L. Brown of the Uni.
versity of Nevada, it is found that the
California vegetables are affected with
eel worm. 1t is said to be admitted in
some quarters in California that this 10
the case; also it is said that the California
quarantine against Nevada potatoes af-
fected with eel worm was a very elastic
thing RICHLY enforced when potatoes
were scarce and high in California and
overlooked when the market was down.
Il has been pointed out that Nevada
could justly institute a quarantine
against potatoes and other vegetables in
California. and it is possible that this
may be seriously considered before
another planting season. This would
leave the home market for Nevada vege.
table growers exclusively until the quar-.
antine was lifted.

A recent report from the State En-
gineer quotes q lot Of water adjustment
cases that have come before him. That
they were adjusted without the use Of
the Law court, high attorney fees and
then an appeal to another court, is COM
mendable in itself.
There has been more time and money
spent having among farmers than any
other class. The value of water is
known to all. but when il is purchased
b. q mortgage on the farm to pay the
lawyer and the court fees it is a doubt
full purchase. II the State Eogineer
can act as a court of equity in water
suits, as has been done to the satisfac-
ton of many. then it would seem that
more laws might be framed to help keep
disputes out of the courts.
The Industrial Insurance law is aimed
along just ouch lines, and with both
working, as it is hoped they will. the
people will certainly benefit. aud it is
the people who send the Legislative
members to their seats.-Oarson Appeal.

The IMPROVED DIcTAGRAPn

Readers will remember that some time ago Detective Burns
made himself famous by having concealed in a room a little instru-
ment, called a dictagraph, which caught and held the conversation
of some rogues in the room, and which, when it was repeated in
court, filed every knave in the land with CONSERVATION when the
to have a machine which would catch and hold and deliver all that
he might say. But there was something wrong with that machine,
and we learn from eastern papers that intense work has been going
on for eight years to perfect an instrument which would accomplish
what was hoped from it, but now there comes the news that one
MI. K NJ Turner of New York, the inventor of the dictagraph, has
improved upon his secret until all that passes in a room with it is
reported, the entire conversation. including whispers, all taken on a
photographic cylinder located some distance away; a little machine
that no one would notice, that could be put in any little corner and
still such a spy that the slightest noises in the room r reported,
and when conspirators get down to whispers. the whispers are
transcribed.
To a criminal this must seem like a foul fend. The paper
says: "Mr. Turner worked on the invention for eight years. For
over seven and a half of them he sought to connect the diaphram of
the dictagraph directly to the needle of a photographic roll, but got
no results. However, four weeks ago he began experimenting with
an air cushion between the ~diaphram and the needle instead of a
direct connection, and at once obtained a full and natural reproduce
ton of the voice. And it is declared that. within the week, in MIR.
Turner's laboratory at Flushing, a conversation in a room supplied
With a dictagraph was recorded in another room. The inventor says
that the new invention as applied to business means that it is now
possible for a business man to sit at his desk and dictate bis letters
in his ordinary tone of voice and have them taken down on phono-
graphic rolls 100 feet or 1000 feet away. He might even remain
his debating in his bedroom or his library. The only limit of the
self recording dictagraph. he insists, is that now recognized in the
transmission of conversation by telephone"
