This, That and the other.

There is a genius in our town who
has worked out and patented a de-
vice known as the noise arrester,'
which has Maxim's silencer beaten by
a long mile. This delicate little piece
of mechanism is built on the plan
of a photograph with a horn at
tachment and records sound. 1t is
fastened under the floor of a street
car and as the car goes bounding
along the "arrester" absorbs all of the
noise so that a person on the side
walk cannot hear the car go by. AT
the end of the line the "arrester'' is
detached from the car and fresh one
put on. The noise which has been
condensed is placed in tin cans and
sealed up ready for shipment. When
the cans are opened pandemonium is
let loose and one can of this noise
will asst about as long as a prestoIite
tank full of gas.

SONG PUTS OUT FIRE

New York City has been intro
duced to a new principle in ex-
tinguishing fires, tests of which have
excited much interest among Of
ficials and scientists. A naturalist
and nature singer" from the far
west demonstrates that flames can
be put out by singing to them or
by drawing a bow across a piece of
metal as in playing violin. Stand
ing a dozen feet from a high glass
flame, the singer by certain sounds
causes the flame to flicker or culver
or die out at will. And with bow
and a piece of aluminium, the pecul-
lar vibrations from a combination
of his singing and playing were
powerful enough to cause a flame
fifty feet distant to act in the same
way. finally going out. While there
is apparently no getting around the
fact that a fire will go out if the
right song is sung at it, an almost
human characteristic, the develop
ment of the principle has not yet
reached that point where quartets
are held in the fire houses ready to
dash to a contiagration and literally
charm the fiery flames from their
feast.

PURE BRED SIRE AND DAM

Those farmers who have rather
dim ideas as to the influence of
breed over feed will have consider
able to masticate in the following
simple item concerning the class of
Guernsey cows that have qualified
in the Advanced Registry. The
number of cows thus qualifying up
to the last classification is 1868.
Their average production of milk
was 8456.76 lbs, with 1882 lbs. of
butterfat. The average richness of
their milk was over per cent. This
splendid result was achieved, it must
be remembered, with very consid-
cradle number of heifers in their
first milking period. This is an
amount of butterfat which repre-
sents an equivalent in butter of
nearly five hundred pounds-all
that has come through the registered
sire channel. Such figures ought to
stir every user of a grade sire out
of his stupid rut.-Hoard's Dairy

PARCEL POST A SUCCESS

Postmaster General Burleson rath-
er startled Washington when he an
nounced that the first year of the
parcel post system will yield a new
profit of $50, 900.
For a quarter of century the
railroads and express companies
have been successfully making the
country believe that the parcel post
would be a burden upon the govern
ment, and would run the postoffice
so far behind that the government
might go into bankruptcy. How
ever, the most ardent supporters of
the parcel post system did not con-
template anything more than half
as great as the first year of the sys-
TEN will show. The result is going
to be that parcel post rates will be
sIashed, in order that the public
may feel the benefits from the new
system without piling up millions
for the postoffice department.
The express companies have been
insisting, with their most courage
Gus smiles, that they have not been
seriously injured by the parcel post,
which has taken over the transporta-
tion of the small packages, which
they say has not been their greatest
source of profit. However, there
seems to be plenty of reason to, as
sumo that the express companies
have not commenced with their
troubles. The Interstate Commerce
Commission has directed an entire
readjustment of rates, which will
compel the express companies to
carry the larger packages, out of
which they are securing their pres
ent great profits, at rates which are
going to make so per cent dividends
to stockholders of express companies

COL. ALEX o. BRODIE
Former Governor of Arizona
Retires from Army

Col. Alexander 0 Brodie, one of
the best known officers of the army,
was placed on the retired list No
vember 1st on account of age. Until
recently Col. Brodie filled the post
of adjutant general of the western
department, with headquarters at
San Francisco.
Col. Brodie's career in the army
has been a most distinguished and
eventful one. After his graduation
from West Point in 1870 he was as
signed to the First Cavalry, with
which regiment he remained until
he resigned from the army in 1877.
During these seven years he was an
active participant in the Indian wars
in the west.
After his resignation Col. Brodie
engaged in civil engineering, mining
and cattle raising until 1898, when
he joined Col. Roossevelt's Rough
Riders. He was lieutenant colonel
of that organization and took part
in its service in Cuba until he was
seriously wounded at Las GuasimaS
and returned to New York. He
was governor of Arizona from 1902
to 1905, and was then appointed
major in the regular army. He
spent two years in the Philippines
and four years as adjutant general
of the department of Dakota. In
1911 he was transferred to San
Francisco as adjutant general of
the western division.
