PROTECTS TRAIN FROM REAR-
END COLLISIONS.

Many suggestions have been made re-
garding ways to guard against rcar-end
collisions on railroads, but the most
feasible seems to be a mechanical flag
man, of which two models have been per-
fected. They would replace the rear
brakeman, who, when the train stops on
account of an accident or washout, is
expected to go back quarter Of a mile
to flag any approaching train.
Brakemen sometimes are slow about
going back or neglect to 20 far enough
and rear-end collisions occur. One of
the machines for replacing the unreli-
able brakeman is in the form Of little
car or track tricycle., to be carried or
hauled at the rear end of the train. If
the train is stopped an employe drops
the tricycle. to the track by mechanical
device and it runs back 1000 feet by
electric power from storage batteries.
AS it runs it unreels cable connecting
it with the train. Flags and lights are
carried on the little car to give warn
ing.
The other invention is device which
unreels 1000 feet of magnctized tor
pedoes which adhere to the track. An
approaching train would explode them
and be warned. The strip rolls up
automatically by machinery on the rear
coach.

FARMING IMPLEMENT THAT
GUIDES ITSELF.

AVE Of the latest innovations in
" farming implements is gasoline
driven vehicle that guides itself
around the field and needs no attention
except to be started and stopped at the
night points. This vehicle, which travels
In constantly narrowing circle, is so
designed that any Of the devices used in
row-crop farming, such as plows, ridg-
ers, cultivators or sprayers, may be
readily attached to it, but in order to
use the implement it is necessary to
abandon the usual rectangular form of
field with straight rows and adopt a
circular field with circular rows spiral,
ing toward the center.
The method is not adapted for big
farms, but is intended for truck garden.
ing and for farming on a small scale
where the expense of employing an
operator for the machine would be pro
hibitive. At the center of the field ar
iron post is erected and strongly guyed.
At the top of the post is a drum, and
from this a slender steel wire runs
through guide pulley and to the steer
ing lever of the implement, which may
be anywhere from twenty feet to sew
eral hundred feet away.
At each trip of the vehicle around
the field the wire winds once around the
drum and this puides tho ;mnloropt
the width of one furrow closer to the
center. This process is continued until
the implement comes as close to the
center as the guy wires will permit The
drum is then released SO that it will re-
volve freely and the implement is run
out Of the field under hand steering, un.
winding the wire as it goes. The imple-
ment has already been used success
fully in working circular field CON.
tanning about seven acres.

REMEDYING THE SMOKE
NUISANCE.

The smoke nuisance prevails wher-
ever soft coal is burned Many de-
vivces have been devised to consume
this smoke, not only to secure more
heat but also to eliminate dirt and
CRIME. One of tho. most successful
devices for stoves and furnaces in resi-
dcnces is the hot air blast. The gases
driven off from the fuel cannot burn
unless mixed with oxygen. The neces-
sary oxygen must be admitted in part
from above; but opening the door (or
its damper) interferes with the draft,
and generally cools the gases below the
burning temperature. This is remedied
in good modern stoves and furnaces by
admitting fresh air from above through
a long metal tube, IN which it is heated
before mixing with the gases to be
burned.

TELEPHONE MAKES COST
KEEPING EASIER.

The telephone is used successfully in
Chicago establishment as a means of
keeping track of the time spent by
employees on repair work and special
jobs Each department in which work
outside of the regular routine is done
is connected by telephone with a cen
tral switchboard, the operator at which
has nothing else to do but record the
time of employees A worker, taking
up particular piece of work, calls this
switchboard and gives the number of
the job on which he is starting. The
time is recorded on a job ticket by the
operator, and when the work is finished
the worker calls up again, announces
that the job is done and gives the num-
Der of the next one to be undertaken.
In this way the exact cost to the es-
tablishment Of each job is readily COM
puted.

Militia Deficient in Dick Law Re-

The invitation extended by the War
Department to Gov. Blease OF South
Carolina to have the organized militia OF
that state participate in the maneuver
camp, to be held in Augusta. Ga. next
month. has been withdrawn because of
the failure OF the South Carolina militia
to meet the requirements OF the Dick
militia law. as construed by the law off,
GERS of the department.
The attention of Gov. Biease some
months ago was called by tho War De-
partment to the shortcomings Of the
South Carolina militia In the matter OF
missing equipment and shortage OF men
In the various grades. The result was
some spirited correspondence between the
governor and the Secretary Of War.
Finally Gov. Blease undertook to meet
the requirements of the department.
Troubles later arose between the gov
ernor and the Secretary of War over
the location OF the proposed joint en-
campment on the Isle OF Palms. 8. C.,
Secretary Garrison finally peremptorily
transferred this camp to Augusta, Ga.
Since then reports from the inspection
officers OF the War Department have
disclosed the fact that the South Carr
DINA militia still is deficient in tho vari-
Gus matters complained Of originally.

christian Science is a way Of living

it's complete proof in the teaching and

every one. 1t shows how to throw on
the liabilities. the disabilities, and the
liabilities that have been imposed ON
men by ages of wrong thinking and how
to gain their true manhood.
THE aim of Christian Science is not
only to prepare people for heavenly
hereafter, but to transform their present
experience into order and harmony. it
declares that heaven. or harmony. Is the
present result of right thinking ana
right doing: it is the mental state that
always accompanies the supremacy OF
truth and love in man.
Christian Science meets human needs:
it does so in the way that promises 10

WOULD SELL TWO WARsHIPs.
Secretary Daniels Favors Using Pro
ceeds for Building Dreadnought.

Secretary Daniels conferred with Demo-
cratic Leader Underwood. Republican
Leader Mann, a number OF other repre-
sentatives, Senator Swanson Of Virginia
and others yesterday IN behalf Of the
proposed sale of the battleship Afissis-
sippi and Idaho to q foreign nation,
said to be the Greek government. the
proceeds to be used for construction of
a new dreadnought. Mr.. Underwood told
the Secretary he favored the proposition.
because it would cost the government
nothing. Mr.. Mann declined to agree to
the plan as 1t stood. but said he had no
objection to the sale II the proceeds were
put into the general fund of the Treasury.
Representative Britten OF Illinois, a re-
publican member of the naval affairs
committee, favored the project. but sug-
gested that its outlook in the House
would be improved If the Norfolk dry
dock project were dropped from the bill.
Secretary Daniels said that he could see
no reason why II a dreadnought in Keep
ing with the modern demands could be
secured without cost to the Treasury
there could be any real objection to the
plan. He said after his talk with men,
bers that the situation looked favorable
to him.
Mr.. Daniels visit to the Capitol was re-
