- WASHINGTON. Nov. 30.--A flying feat
hitherto unapproached has been ac-
complished by one of the navy's new
est type seaplanes, the giant ~ C-1."
which carried fifty men in a flight
last Thursday, the Navy Department
announced to-day. The flight was
made at the Naval Air Station, Rock
away, L. I. Lieut.. David e. McCul-
Tough OF the Naval Reserve Flying
Corps piloted the huge machine.
No special notifications in this
enormous flier were made to carry
the half hundred passengers. The
flight was made, Secretary Daniels
said to demonstrate the tremendous
lifting power of the seaplane bomber
The newest type Is the first sea-
plane TO have three motors and Is
neither distinctively a flying boat nor
plane OF the pontoon variety but
combines the best features OF both.
The three Liberty motors in the ma
chine develop 1900 horse power, giving
the craft a cruising speed Of eighty
miles an hour. Some idea of the pro-
pOI vi Tic lllCI
the fact that unloaded and without
a crew the seaplane weighs six and
a half tons and its flying weight
loaded Is eleven tons. The wing spread
is 126 feet, the wings are IL feet
broad and are spaced IL feet apart.
The machine was developed by the
Navy Department cooperating with
the Curtiss Engineering Corporation.
The machine. according to Mr.. Daniels,
is entirely new and original in type.

S42,G43.37 TAX
TAKEN To DATE
Amount Almost Double the
Sum Gathered the Same
Time Last Year.

Property taxes TO the amount Of
S42.sfs-s7 have been collected to date,
according to county tax collector R
D. Richey. which is nearly double
the amount collected on the same date
last year.
Richey has originated a system OF
notification Of taxes due. which. he
says. undoubtedly is responsible for
the large amount of taxes collected
this early in the season. These no.
tees, which bear the complete de
scription of the property taxed. the
assessed valuation and the amount
Of tax to be paid. are mailed out to
all tax payers starting October J..
when taxes become due. and have
proved to be OF infinite value to the
tax payer and Richey's office force
as well.
By this system. which is original
with Mr. Richey. all information that
a tax payer would be likely to desire
is given him in advance and any err
rors are easily apprehended and cor
rected.
This plan was first introduced by
the county collector last year. and il
was the first year. in the history Of
the office. where a big rush was not
in evidence during the final days Of
the tax paying season, and there were
less delinquent taxes last year than
previously. Figures at the present
time. said Richey. indicate an even
better condition than last year.

WANTS MANY MILK GOATS
FOR CRIPPLED SOLDIERS

nifty around Vancouver, B. C, through

I'VE shipped a load Of $50 goats to
Vancouver last Nay as a test Mr..
Gibson was to establish small ranches
for crippled soldiers that they might
be enabled to earn a livelihood in
spite of their terrible handicap These
goats met the test successfully as
milk there sells for % cents q quart
and a goat produces its weight y
times in milk in a year as contrasted
to three times for q COW. This to-
gether with the fact that q goat can
subsist on the amount OF feed that a

is most favorable for convaIescents
and infants suffering from maInutri-
ton, bids fair to make the project one
of immense measure" said Mr.. Eaton,
