guns.
During the present war a few aero
planes have carried small torpedoes and
launched them against ships. In order
to insure hitting these vessels, they have
had to come down within few feet OF
the water and close to their targets. Fol
this reason, these planes have only dared
to attack poorly armed transports and
merchantmen and in no case have they
attempted to torpedo battleship.
In the case where the German aero
planes, carrying torpedoes, attacked the
merchantmen Gena, one of the planes
,,was shot down in endeavoring to close in
on the target From recent history ii
| would seem that the agency that directs
the torpedo attack must be considerable
distance from the battleship to escape
humiliation from the anti-torpedo boat
battery.
If so pairs of torpedoes and controlling
planes were to suddenly engage in a
squadron of ships from all directions, it
would appear inevitable that number of
capital ships would be sunk.
Interesting Testimony.
Another bit of interesting testimony
reveals the fact that on this control of
his torpedo, Mr.. Hammond has made one
of the most important advances that has
been made in the art of wireless tele-
graphy. His system cannot positively be
interfered with by an enemy, notwith-
standing the fact that certain inventors
have devised mechansms for this pur-
pose. These mechanisms, | understand
have been tested at the Hammond labora-
tories and have not been able to upset
the torpedo control system in any way.
One of the leading radio experts of the
| navy, George Clark, answering Mr., Sher-
! ley, chairman of The House Fertilization
committee, said:
| Mr.. Sherley-What have you to say as
! to the claims of Mr.. Hammond that he
has invented a system for the wireless
control of torpedo which is free from
any outside interference by hostile wire
| less?
Mr.. Clark-Mr Hammonds contention
is absolutely correct. His method of in
surfing control of the apparatus by radio
and especially of insuring freedom from
interference from any hostile source is
the most perfect that | know of in ex-
| iStence"
From Mr.. Hammond's experiments il

WASHINGTON, D. C., July 3l, (Mail Correspondence) - The most valuable soldier in the known world to- day is a youth of 22, who, when he enlisted, was a sickly looking boy in the first degrees of consumption
 Today, France would rather part with two whole army divisions than lose George Guynemer.
 He is the uncrowned "king of the air." who has brought down 45 Ger man aeroplanes.
 As one aviator is worth 1000 or dinary troops, Guynemer has Strate- gically wiped out 45,000 Germans. No one soldier ever before approached this pale Frenchman'S military value.
 Capt. Amaury de La Grange, head of the French aviation commission re- gently in the United States, in eX- plaining Guynemer'S tactics for the benefit of aeronautic experts, said: George Guynemer, now only twenty two years old, began training in Feb ruary, 1915, on the eve of his exam ination for the Polytechnical School.
 He was tall, slim, delicate, so one feared he might have lung trouble He had never gone in for sports, and was almost the last man to be picked as promising material for a pilot
 "He finished training in three and a half months, not remarkable when compared with Lieut.. Tetu'S six weeks. Less than a month after his arrival at the front, armed only with an army rifle, he brought down his first enemy.
 His plan of campaign against an enemy machine is simple.
 He approaches as near as possible without firing keeping low and behind his adversary.
 "When he comes almost up to him (9O to 15O feeO he makes his plane rear up like a spirited charger and opens fire.
 He is an excellent shot and us ually disables his opponent in the first round, but in case he does not he tries

BEWARE OF

 Made

WASHINGTON, D. c. Aug. 1,(By MaiD It has come to the knowledge of the United States Department of Agriculture that certain shipments of beans from the Orient known as Bur ma or Rangoon beans have entered this country from Canada.
 They closely resemble the ordinary navy bean in appearance, but can be distinguished by the light yellowish color and the fine, distinct radiating lines passing out from the hilum or eye.
 They are pole beans of the Lima type and not suitable for planting in this country, since they are of tropi- cal origin and will not mature in the bean-growing States. They are not fit for human food, since they yield hy- drocyanic acid in amounts which may be dangerous to the health of the peo- pie of the United States.
