Lawrence Sperr of the naval re-

dro-airplane. He performed the feat

practice of the aerial coast patrol 1t

After an initial drive over tho wa
ter, Sperry pointed the machine sky
ward, and kept on until he reached
height of 5000 feet. A quick shift
then turned the machine over and
the amazed members of the patrol
watched with fear and admiration a
dazzling flight of 10 seconds, bottom
side up, in which position he scudded
a quarter of mile. The machine was
righted as deftly as 1t had been upset
Then Sperry volplaned easily to the
water.
He had set out from Amity. L. l.,

of injuring their grain by improper
treatment. The college has used the
so minute soak for wheat on the Ex-
pertinent Station Farm for nine OF

vitality of the seed.
It should be noted in the directions
given by Mr. Hawkins that the seed
should be drained and planted the

ter and spread out to dry Cnot left to
dry in sacks). Injury comes not So
much from the length OF time the
grain is soaked in the solution as from
the length of time the fumes of the
formaldehyde gas acts on the moist
grain and unless the grain is planted
at once after treating or is rinsed in
pure water Immediately and thor
oughly dried. the gas and moisture
may continue to act upon the grain
until planted which may be several
days or weeks. The original recon-
mendations years ago for seed treat
ment included a two hour soak but
experience showed that the smut was
destroyed in a shorter time and the
recommended period for the soak has
been reduced. The 80 minute soak
for wheat has been used successfully
in many parts of the United States
and has been recommended by the
federal department of agriculture.
Five men from the Agricultural
College have been visiting all the
grain sections of oregon this fall and
investigating cases of treatment in

that the grain. after treating by eth I

AMERICAN HEADQUARTERS IN
FRANCE, Nov. 3-The second batch Of
Americans to go into the trenches are
running into the same kind OF wet
weather that greeted the first contin-
gent A cold. drizzIing rain began fall
ing at noon yesterday and continued into
the night The section where the Ameri-
cans are stationed has been converted
into a slippery bog.
Low hanging clouds and a heavy mist
have caused slackening in the artillery
activity on both sides. At the same time
this same condition has permitted work
ing parties to repair the damage caused
by previous artillery fire without much
danger. The weather has been such
that the flyers have not been active.
The report to headquarters indicate
that there has been no departure from
the normal activities in the trenches.
General Pershing returned at noon
yesterday from a visit to the British
front. Other officers had returned ear
lier in the day. A party Of the returned
American officers went through the bill
let's and questioned closely the Ameri-
cans who had seryed their hrst time in
the trenches.

LABOR H|REDON
WAR CONTRACTS

Government bureaus in making fu-
ture contracts for war materials will
give due consideration to labor sup
ply and housing conditions to pre-
vent undue copcentration OF workers
In particular localities. The cOnges-
tion of laborers IN scores OF indus
trial towns has become serious and
officials are endeavoring to solve the
problem of adequate housing.
The adoption of a plan to give fl
nancial assistance to such Industries
or localities as are known to need
relief to meet the housing question
is considered probable. The Council
OF National Defense has taken the
view that the Government ought to
go to any length in this direction to
prevent loss OF time in delivery on
vast war orders. Government aid
may take the form OF loans at a low
rate OF interest
Government experts in studying the
question discovered serious commun-
ity problems in several New England
manufacturing towns as well as in
the steel production centers OF Penn
sylvabia. Housing needs in such
cases must be dealt with quickly to
prevent a possible curtailment in the
production of guns, gun carriages and
other munitions. Department heads
are considering the creation OF a
permanent Government housing
board, with broad powers to con-
duct buifding operations, as the most
effective way OF handling the sit
uation.

Secretary Baker urged that families

secretary's Formal Appeal.
Secretary Baker then issued the fol-
lowing appeal urging Washington to
respond to the emergency as a patrIo-
tic duty:
THE very large accessions to the
population OF Washington during the
last six months has made the question
of the housing of new employees
matter Of increasing difficulty. The
situation has reached a stage where
the citizens Of Washington must be
relied upon to do everything In their
power to provide additional facilities
of this kind especially for the women
clerks and other employees who are
daily being appointed.
1t is hoped that as many OF our
citizens as possible will offer these
new Government employees board and
lodging at reasonable rates, In many
cases this will, OF course, more or less
disarrange the regular domestic az
fairs of the household, but II Is con-
fdently expected that Washingtons

" nile everyone below was holding his
breath, the machines began to come
under, control Thirty seconds later
both were wobbling slowly earthward
but under almost perfect control Each
aviator seemed to have the same idea:
that OF making an easier lanuing in q
small wood nearby. A minute later
the machines were gently settling
down in the branches. Aside from a
few inevitable scratches both pilots
were none the worse"
The Washington times., 1917-11-03

At present her greatest weakness in
manufacture is the propeller, as the
Germans do not seem to have a suf-
fcient supply of the proper wood.
To provide the necessary pilots for
the new German aviation program
the military authorities are Offering
exceptional facilities for all yolun-
teers.
Some idea OF the degree OF perfec-
tion which the Germans are endeav-
oring to put into their new program
may be gathered from the fact that
a new German plane recently forced
to land on French soil was equipped
with an electrical apparatus for dry
ing the clothing and gloves OF the
aviator, and at the same time fur.

munication.
