Vision in Fishes.

Vision in fishes is very like human
vision in regard to shade and color,
but less acute in dots of two millimet-
ers and three millimeters, and recog-
nize dots Of one millimeter, but not
those Of five-tenths of a millmeter.
BY means Of rotating background
of black and white sectors the acute
ness Of vision in regard to motion was
found equal to that of men. F1oun-
ders adapted to a given color seek
grounds of that color, and color in the
skin is produced only by exposure to
the same color. Hence, founders have
color vision, but this does not prove
they have color sensation.

One man can milk II to 25 cows an
hour with the proper equipment of

more on the operator than on the ma
chine. However, if you had to hire
one man eight hours each day to do
the milking, you would get more profit
than you would by taking half.
dozen farmhands from the fields an
hour earlier than they should quit
work.
In the past much trouble has been
experienced in getting efficient ma

much milk in the udders to be re-
moved by hand. Great improvements
have been made In the last few years,
however, and now machines can be had
that will remove practically all the

ONE GREAT DAIRY DRAWBACK
Monotony of Having to Milk Large
Number Of Cows Daily Keeps
Many Men Out of Business.

The tedious task of hand milking has
been one of the greatest drawbacks
the dairying industry has had. The
monotony Of having to milk large
number of cows each day has kept
many men from entering the business
when they might have made a great
success of it. Machine milking is not
only feasible, but it is practicable,
there being thousands of cows ma.

ANTI AIRCRAFT
 GUNS FUR SHIPS
[Republican A. p. Leased wirel

WASHINGTON, July 1T-Construc- ton of enough high power anti-air- craft guns to supply all active battle ships and cruisers of the navy has been completed, it was announced to- day by Secretary Daniels. The new weapons are believed by navy experts to be the longest range guns of that type in the world. The battleships Pennsylvania and Nevada already are equipped with two each. and the same number will be mounted on the other vessels when they go to their home yards for overhauling.
 The new gun is three inch, fifty calibre weapon that will throw a shell 27,000 feet in air at an angle of 90 degrees. On each ship one will be mounted forward and one aft, with an all round fire so that the pair can sweep the skies in any direction. | The ordnance bureau has been al work on the design for three years At first it was proposed to adapt dis carded three inch guns for anti-air- craft work but that was found imprac-
 tical and a complete new type wa: | worked out.

ST. PAUL, Minn., July 17.-Prohi- bition party leaders admitted tonight that their plans for a get-together conference in St. Paul tomorrow which they had hoped would bring into their organization a throryg of progressives, republicans and demo-

 Supporters of J.

 Such opposition as developed today came from both sides of the house Senators Thomas and Vardaman (democratsl and Senators Works and Norris (republicans) leading the at tack or the building program. Both democratic and republican leaders de tended it, however, and an amend ment by Senator Norric to delay con struction of any of the 16 capital ships until after the close of the Eu- ropean war and after failure of eff forts to create an international peace tribunal was tabled 45 to II.
 In support of his amendment Sena- tor Norris declared the bill provided for expenditure of more money for naval construction in time of peace than was ever spent by any nation in the world, despite the fact that it if very probable that before this Euro pean war IS over the United States without the construction of a single ship will have the greates navy ir the world"

 BLACKLIST OF
 GREAT BRITAIN
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

LONDON, July 17.-Tomorrow the | British government will publish a list 1 of from 70 to 80 business firms and in i dividuals domiciled in the United i States, with which residents of the , United Kingdom are forbidden to trade !, This will be the first time that any l American firms have been placed on the statutory list, which is better known as the trading with the enemy act blacklist All other countries have been represented on the list for some time.
 l Laming Worthington Evans, controll- CT of the foreign trade department of the foreign office today gave the As sociated Press the following explana tion of the latest extension of the trad ing with the enemy act
 Tt has been the policy of the Brit ish government in the past to follow the theory that in forbidding its sub jects to trade with an enemy, that en- emies domiciled in friendly countries did not come under the act. France and various other countries hold the doctrine that their nationals cannot trade with an enemy, no matter what his domicile Modern conditions of credit and commerce make it possible for an enemy outside belligerent terri tory to trade with his country. There fore a considerable body of opinion in this country urged the government to abandon it's traditional doctrine, and
 the foreign office while not going to
 this extreme decided simply to pro-
 hibit persons domicied in the United
 Kingdom from trading with a limited number of individuals, firms or com
 panies of enemy nationality or associa- tion under the same penalties as though they were trading with an enemy" The statement continues:
 'It will be clear that this policy em-
 bodied in the recent act is purely q
 piece of democratic legislation which only interferes with trade, even in the cases of specified concerns. by pro-
 hbiting persons domiciled in the United Kingdom from dealing with
 these concerns. It is a consequence simply and solely of the right of the state te limit or control, in the inter- ests of the state, the trade relations n of it's own subjects. As regards the
 United States list this may roughly
 be divided into four classes:
 "First-German firms with head of
 fees or control in Germany.
 ''Second- German firms incorpo- rated in the United States and there fore technically American entities. Wt 0 have dealt with these firms on theil C merits. In these cases something e more has been required to qualify !. them for the statutory than German n Inationality-eithe assisting the en- . emy by loans propaganda or in regard f to contraband.
