Cold Doesn't Bother zepps.

A recent night, when two Zeppelins
came to grief, was the coolest since
last winter; but those who expressed
surprise that the baby killers should
venture on a trip under such Arctic
conditions know little about the up
per air. The fact that the tempera-
ture decreases fairly uniformly up to
height of about 10000 feet has been
known for many years by means of
automatic registering apparatus sent
up in fballoris sondes,' but it has al
SO been ascertained that though the
temperature at about 10000 feet is
very low-in the neighborhood of 40
degrees Of frost-it remains practic-
ally constant all the year round.
However cold or warm it may be at
the surface of the earth, the same
degree of GOODNESS is always encoun-
tered a few thousand feet above, and
it was probably no colder in the ''Zep-
pelin zone" on Monday night than it
is on the hottest day of midsummer
Another remarkable discovery lis
that at a certain height, varying from
$4,000 feet to $4,000 feet, according to
the locality, the thermometer ceases
to fall with increasing height. 1t
drops to about -68 degrees F. 600
degrees of frost and remains there
while the 'ballons sondes" rise for
quite another mile. And curiously
enough, the lowest temperature ever
registered in the air was encountered
Immediately over the equator where
a few months ago-84 degrees c.. was
recorded at a height of 1900 metres

Ground Gypsum Has Affinity for
Mater

An early and for many years the
principal use of gypsum in this com
try was its application by farmers TO
the land, with a view to make nonpor-
Gus clay soils more pervious to watef .
to make sandy soils less pervi ,us
and to sweeten sour and acid soils.
A characteristic of ground gypsum Is
that 1t has an affinity for water and
viii draw moisture from the atrnos-
phere. This quality is a great factor
in keeping moisture in the soil and is
Of value to the farmer in starting the
growth Of grain and grass, as it holds
moisture where the roots OF the small
plants most need It The application
of ground gypsum or land plaster to
the foliage of man. plants in a dry.
hot season, it is declared, viii draw
the necessary moisture from the at
mosphere and often save a crop from
being damaged by drought. It is
commonly applied to peanut vines to
insure a crop.
The production OF gypsum, accord
ing to the United States GEOLOGICAL
Survey, Department of the Interior.
has increased from 694, 1872 short tors
in 1910 to 2,E47t6I1 short tons in 1915.
