SPEED OF THE zEPPELINs.
In War Trim, Fully Loaded, the Aver.
age Is Forty Miles an Hour.

In War Trim, Fully Loaded, the Aver.
age Is Forty Miles an Hour.
Not so many years ago British en-
cheering expert calculated that the
Zeppelin could not attain a speed OF
thirty miles an hour, as he proved by
figures that the ship would collapse
under the air pressure. At the time
this speed had been actually exceeded
by a Zeppelin. says R. P. Hearne In
"Zeppelins and Super-Zeppelins."
Today the tendency is to attribute
too high speed to the vessels. In
still air it is doubtful If higher speed
than sixty-five miles an hour can be
reached, and by the most careful cal
culation Mr.. Hearne has come to the
conclusion that the average speed of
the modern Zeppelin in war trim Is
about forty miles an hour, full load.
"Of course" he says, with favor
ing wind the ship may often be run
ming at over sixty miles an hour, and
the difficulty of gauging wind speed
often causes erroneous estimates of
Zeppelin speed by observers on land.
In the upper region where an airship
Is moving there may be strong cur
rent, while near the earth there is a
calm"
It Is we'll to note that for a short
period Zeppelin can climb faster than
an aeroplane. By throwing out ballast,
going full speed ahead, tanning the
tail down and showing the nose up, a
Zepp jumps a thousand feet or so in
about half a minute. This rate of
climb, however, cannot be maintained.

H. A. Swanton, the fruit and garden
truck raiser Of Westport, carried to
the Boothbay Register Office on Tues
day a practically new vegetable raised
in that region. 1t was a Mexican
cabbage. 1t was a. foot long
from where it was cut from the stalk
to the head. The head is quite unlike
that of the ordinary cabbage, as it
lengthens out and looks more like an
elongated lettuce plant. The flavor is
not as strong as that of the cabbage
and is particularly suited to salads
Mr. Swanton experimental with this
new vegetable this year and is not
we'll satisfied with the result. He set
out over forty plants and got only
four real good vegetables. We find
that H. A. Nickerson tried the Mex
lean cabbage last year but without
much success.

the American relief might have been
realized several months ago with the
same provisions as in Northern
France had not the government OF
Great Britain prevented its accom-
plishment by elnging to its unbound
ed and impracticable conditions.
I'm this way it has become practi-
cally impossible to convey a consider
able amount of foo6stuffs from Amer
lea to Poland by the expiration of the
term set as the end of the relief work,
Oct l. Accordingly, further negotia-
tions are devoid of purpose. But on
the other hand, thanks to the intense
culture of the land effected by the
Imperial government by using all the
means available and every effort pos.
sible in the occupied territory, and
owing to the favorable harvest pros
poets, n relief action after Oct. L.,

SECOND REGIMENT
MEN NOT subject
For Duty Outside of the United States
Unless They are Draft

Officers and men of the Second
West Virginia regiment of the West
Virginia National Guard, modified
at Kanawha City, atllast know what
status they occupy, under the new
liberalization law, with relation to
the United States and state govern
ments. In lengthy opinion hand
ed down by Brigadier General Crow
der, judge advocate general of the
United States army, it is held that
the state soldiers are not subject for
duty outside of the United States I'M
til they are formally drafted by or
der of the President. The West Vir-
ginia troops have not yet been made
subject to that order.
1t is held, however, that the men
of all such troops are under control
of the federal government and not
of the governors Of the states, and
that they are entitled to the same
pensions and privileges as regular
soldiers.
While congress by joint resolution
has conferred upon the President
authority to draft the militia and
national guard, in his discretion, the
general points out that the President
has not exercised that authority.
In the meantime, he says, the
status of the state troops lis that of
militia called into the service of the
United States for one of the pur-
poses specified in the constitution,
that is, to protect the United States
from invasion"
not in federal service, according to
the opinion. They are:
First, the organized militia of
Texas, Arizona and New Mexico,
summoned by the President in his
first call for state troops under the
Dick law of 1903.
Second, the national guard auto
matically placed in federal service
under the new national defense act
the Hay-Chamberlain bill.
Third, the regular troops"
Militia which have not qualified
under the new law, have status
identical with those OF Texas, Ari-
zona and New Mexico.
