95 acres more. An effort is being
made to have the railroad company
place a siding at D'Aste to accom-
modate the beet growers. 1t is ex-
pected that this acreage will be
greatly increased before actual seed
ing time and that the acreage will
warrant the installation of a dump
somewhere along the railroad near
D'Aste.

new GRAWTATION THEORY
SOON TO BE ANNOUNCED
Prof. Nipper Changes Attraction to
Repulsion in Bodies by Reducing
Negative Electricity.

ST LOUIS, September ia new
theory as to gravitation will be an
nornced soon before the St. Louis
Academy of Science by Prof. Francis E.
Nipper. retired head of the department
of physics of Washington University.
In written statement Prof. Nipper
said:
1T will be shown that gravitational
attraction between masses of matter not
only has been diminished into zero. but
has been converted into a repulsion,
which is more than twice as great as
normal attraction
Prof Nfpper made his experiments
with bodies suspended horizontally to-
ward each other. BY introducing cleo
tricity into the atmosphere he con-
verted normal attractions into repulsion.
IF electricity can alter the gravita-
tional attraction of the bodies used in
my experiments" he said, the same
force can alter the earths attraction.
If the negative electricity could be
drawn from the earth's surface. gravi-
rational attraction suddenly would cease
and the coherence OF the earths sur
face would be disastrously affected"
