MOTOR FEES VARY GREATLY
States Lack Uniform Basis for Regis
tration and License Charges, Re-
ports Uncle Sam.

1t cost motor vehicle owners in the
United States in 1916 an average of
S7.36 per car for registration and IL
cense fees, according to figures COM
piled by the office of public roads. Unit
ed States department of agriculture.
New Hampshire secured in 1916 a
gross revenue of S19.67 and Vermont
$1902 for every motorcar, while Min
nesota, where the registration is for a
three-year period, received only about
so cents annually for each car. In
South Carolina and Texas no annual
registration fees were required.
No well-developed and definite basis
exists for determining the fees to
which different cars shall be subject.
In some states the fee is based ON the
net weight of the vehicle; in others the
carrying capacity, the horse power, or
some combination of these factors is
used. Requirements for registration
or licensing of chauffeurs, owner
operators, and dealers vary widely.

NEW MIGRATORY BIRD RULES
Agriculture Department Seeks to Mod
ify the Season on Water Fowl In
Certain Sections.

Modification of the federal migratory
bird regulations prescribing daily
closed season on all migratory game
and insectivorous birds from sunset to
half an hour before sunrise, instead of
from sunset to sunrise, is proposed by
the department of agriculture, and, If
approved by President Wilson. will be
put into effect.
Another change proposed would
make an open season for waterfowl
from September 10 to December 81,
inclusive, In Pennsylvania, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, North Dakota, Montana,
Wyoming, Colorado, Nevada, Idaho and
parts of Oregon and Washington lying
east of the summit of the Cascade
mountains.
These changes are designed to unity
the season on waterfowl in the north
ern zone, and, in most instances, are
made to conform with the open sea-
son under state laws.

Huge Phosphate Reserves.

Idaho, Utah, Wyoming and Montana
possess vast deposits of high-grade
phosphate rock. Although the phos'
phate areas are by no means com.
pletely surveyed, the amount of phos-
phate i'll the known deposits, as esti-
mated by the United States geological
survey, department of the interior, is
nearly five and one-half billion tons
An idea of the immensity of this ton
mage may be obtained by comparing
it with last years production in the
United States of 1,9S0,OO0 tons.

AIR STUDY ON GROUND
New Type of Flying School Is Es-
tablished by Uncle Sam.
Future Aviators Spend Months Obtain
ing Theoretic Instruction Before
Operating AirpIane.

Maj. Hiram Bingham of the aviation
division of the United States army Is
the father of the new type of ground
school for aviators which has been in
operation on college campuses through
out the country. At these schools en-
bryo aviators spend several months on
the ground obtaining preliminary in
struction before they take to the air.
The course of training adopted in
these schools has the enthusiastic In
dorsement of experienced foreign avia-
tors who have seen the work. English
and French fiiers are thoroughly alive
to the Importance of theoretical In
struction as the first step toward learn
Ing to fly. Many of the most serious
mistakes made by foreign flotillas at
due to minimizing the importance OF
absolute technique in aerial fighting.
AS the war progressed, the art of
code signaling from the air was devel-
oped, with the same rapidity that was
required in every form of attack and
defense. So perfect became the COM
munlcation between the aviators and
the batteries that fire control from the
air has now become an exact science.
Most of the aerial observation In
modern battles is taken from height
of about 1000 feet, and the study of
accuracy from this height comprises
one of the most important-and GER
tainly one of the most popular
courses given in our ground schools.
The idea Is to give the student perched
at the top of a ladder the picture OF
the Belgian battle ground as 1t would
appear to one looking down from a
height of 1000 feet. The students
perch is 16 feet from the ground, and
the picture covers surface of l6
square feet and has been drawn from
aviation photography. The cadet
works with the key of a radio OUTFIT,
which for convenience gives forth Wis
ible electric flashes governed by the
standard code. The instructor stands
at a switchboard from which at Will
he can flash little electric lights on
any part of the map. Taking note OF
these imaginary explosions, the young
aviator ticks off instructions to the
batteries"
1t is the idea in modern air fighting
that the aviator shall be something
far more useful than a mere flying
man. The ordinary aviator bears the
same relation to an air fighter that
chauffeur bears to the driver of an ar
mored motor car. Before he can even
think of fighting the military aviator
must know his machine and be as ia
miliar with all the tricks of riding it as
the old-fashioned dispatch rider was
with his horse.
The up-to-date pilot must know how
to groom his machine and to attend to
every detail of its inner workings. He
must be expert to the point where his
machine is only secondary and he can
give all his attention to his military
problem. In the experience of Eng
land it has been found that former Of
ficers of cavalry and artillery often
make the best aviation officers, as an
able cavalryman is an expert at recon-
naissance and artillerymen are trained
in all the subtle tricks of gunfire.

Marines "First to Fight"
and Also "FirSt to Eat"

Over five thousand loaves of
''bread like mother used to
make" are produced daily by the
Marine corps bakers in their
giant bakery at the recruit
depot at Port Royal, S. G. This
amount is required for feeding
the recruits undergoing the two
in-one" Marine corps course of
intensive training for modern
warfare.
First to Fight" also means
"First to Eat" say the marines,
and they believe their "chow"
is fully as important as their mil
itary education.
The Colorado statesman., 1917-08-11

Those who have carefully investi-
yated the quantity of straw wasted
by the farmers of the United States
claim that $65,0OO.000 worth of it is
burned each year.

Poison Gases Produced
From Venezuela Plants

While carrying on botanical
explorations in Venezuela, DIR.
J. N. Rose, associate curator of
plants in the National museum,
secured specimens of sabadilla,
a Venezuelan plant of the lily
family, from the seeds of which
are produced some of the as
phyxiating and tear-producing
gases used by the Germans in
the present war. 1t is said that
the dust from the seeds in the
field irritates the eyes, throat,
and especially the nose so much
that the native laborers are
obliged to wear masks.
Another plant of the same ge-
nus grows wild in Texas and
some botanists believe that
should a need for sabadilla arise
in this country, 1t could easily
be cultivated in Texas and
other Southern states.

With the entrance of the United
States into the world conflict there is
occasion to fear that business will suf-
Ter as a consequence.
Quite the opposite is true. Business
is merely the exchange of commodi-
ties-the exchange of one mans pro-
duct for the product of another, with
money as the medium of exchange
The mistaken idea that because the
nation is at war, people should there
fore skimp and economic and deny
themselves the things which they
would purchase under normal condi-
tions, would, if followed, be calcu.
lated to bring about the very condition
that it is most necessary to avoid.
To prosecute the war successfully re.
quires money, and lots Of it, The Only
source from which money can be OBJ
tanned is from the people who have it.
The only way that people can get mon.
cy is by producing something, whether
the product be that of brain or Drawn.
and exchanging that product for mon.
ey. Then, the use of that money to
purchase something which somebody
else produces keeps it in circulation.
