George Moriarty Of Washington, D.
c.. has discovered that with few slight
changes he can operate a gasoline motor
with water at a cost of less than 7-s
cents gallon. In discussing the matter
he says: Water itself is one OF the
most explosive liquids known when used
properly. All you have to do is to sepa-
rate the elements that go to make up
water and then explode them by means
of compression in a cylinder, igniting
them from spark coil. BY this means
l have developed ss.37 actual horse
power. Water contains gases that ex-
plode far more quickly and are more
sensitive than gasoline, kerosene or
naptha." Mr.. Moriarty has about COM
pleted his apparatus for separating the
gases and will soon be driving an auto
mobile with hydrant water for fuel

A Denver travelling man just back
from southern Texas hands in the fol-
lowing as his opinion Of the country
down that way: The heat in the summer
is hundred and ten, just right for the
devil but too hot for men,, The devil put
thorns on all of the trees, and mixed up
the sand with millions of feas. He
scattered tarantulas along the roads,
put thorns on the cactus and horns on
the toads. He heightened the horns
the Texas steers, and put an addition
to jackrabbit ears. He put little devils
in the broncho steed and poisoned the
feet of the centipede. The rattlesnake
bites you, the scorpion stings, the mos
quito delights you with buzzing of wings.
The sand burs prevail and so do the ants,
and those who sit down need soles on
their pants.

"Not long ago." says correspond
ent of the De Laval Monthly, Il laughed
at farmer who was feeding forty-five
steers and milking twelve cows, and re-
marked to him that instead he should be
milking forty-five cows and feeding
twelve steers, if any. told him that he
could make pound Of butter as cheaply
as a pound of beef. OF course he didn't
believe it at first, as he was beef man,
but he got to thinking about it and test
ed 1t out, picking out twelve steers and
twelve cows that he thought were good
average. At the end of four weeks
test he had learned that he could pro-
duce a pound of butterfat for even less
money than he could q pound of beef,
and Of course there is no comparison be-
tween the value of pound of butterfat
and pound Of beef.

WAR Department
NOT FAVORABLE TO
REOPENINC INLET

From w. b. Ladue, major, corps of
engineers, Jacksonville, comes the
following announcement regarding
the proposed inlet at Sebastian, st.
Lucie county:
The petition presented to the sec
rotary of war by certain citizens of
st. Lucie county and others, praying
for permission to cut an inlet chan
mel to connect Indian river with the
Atlantic ocean near the town Of Sc
bastian in st. Lucie county, Fla, to-
gether with communications from
parties favoring, and others opposing
the plan, having been carefully con-
sidered by the war department, | am
directed by the chief of engineers,
U. s. army, to advise that under
date of May 10, 1915. the assistant
secretary of war approved the recon-
mendation of the chief of engineers in
the matter, as follows:
"'This particular project has been
carefully Investigated by the district
engineer officer, who finds that while
it is earnestly advocated by one
portion of the community il is rs
strongly opposed by another portion.
Both the support and opposition,
however. are based on considerations
other than those of navigation, and
which do not particularly concern the
department. The district officer is of
the opinion that the opening of the
inlet can have no beneficial effect on
