THOUGHT WILL RULE WORLD
Scientist Asserts Ships at Sea Will Be
Controlled From Shore and Gasoline
Will Be Grown Like Corn.

In the lobby of a big Fifth avenue
club one evening recently, a group of
scientific men were discussing the war
as being the necessity that will bring
about some startling inventions, notes
a New York correspondent. If the
sprinkling of intellectual lumnat;
were not stamped by genius, 1t is prob
able that an ordinary bystander would
have tapped his forehead knowingly.
One of them was telling about a sci
enlist who is already telephoning to
airplanes without wires. And another
quoted a famous inventor who said
that it would only be a short while
until all telephone wires would be abol-
ished as unessential.
"The fact is" he said, "that tele-
phone wires do not in reality carry
our messages. Every scientist knows
that. Back of it all is the great proc
ess of thought which we are only be-
ginning feebly to understand.
"The more we delve into this proc
ess of thought-whateve 1t is--the
more we come to the conclusion that
the material phenomena Is the pro.
lection of thought We konw that ev-
cry material thing comes from a
thought or an idea.
"We are arriving at the conclusion
that even space is thought, for we are
space every day through
n thinking process, 1t will not be
many generations before every ship at
sea is controlled by thought fropl
shore. Our trains are going 60 be run

gasoline just like we raise corn"

fastened together by a saddle of two
l by 6-inch boards.
There should also be n board nailed
across the front to help hold the sides.
| As framework for the back, . by 4
inch pieces are placed upright feet
from each side and nailed to the floor
and sides. A crosspiece is put in 2 feet
from the floor. The back boards are
nailed to this framework and to the
sides. A guard rail should be placed
across the back the same as on the
sides. The sides should be fastened
firmly together so that no storm will
blow them down. The cracks should
be covered with batten. Guy wires
should be put in place to keep the
house from blowing over if in an eX-
posed position.
For Fattening Pigs.
The A-type house is very good for
a few fattenlng pigs and may be used
to house a SOW and litter in warmer
climates. In sections where cold win
ters are experienced the front should
be closed in. This will make a good
shelter for a SOW and her spring litter.
If the front is to be closed this should
be decided before the house is built.
This is necessary for two reasons.
First, provision for ventilation should
be made, which can be done by insert
ing three or four 6-inch pieces Of 2 by
4-inch material at the apex and spilling
the sides firmly to them, thus prOvid-
ing a series of pinch spaces for venti-
lation. The saddle-boards are raised.
Second, the insertion of the blocks to
provide for ventilation will change the
angle at which the boards for the
back are cut.
In building the front proceed the
same as with the back. The door
should be % inches by feet. If the
front is closed the window in the front
should be on hinges so that it may be
opened to give ventilation.
If the weather is severe at farrowing
time, one or two lighted lanterns hung
in the top of the house will make it
quite comfortable for the young pigs.

Movable or colony hog houses arc
especially suited to the needs of the
farmer Just, starting in the hog busi
pess and also for pig club members
who are doing their part to help the
il per cent increase needed in hog
population. These houses, especially
where the winters are mild, will meet
all the needs of hogs for shelter both
from the hot sun of summer and the
dampneSs ana storm of winter. They
can be moved from field to field as
the pigs are changed from one grazing
crop to another. Their use makes it
easy to keep the hogs healthy, as the
house can be moved as soon as one
place becomes unclean.

floor of 1-inch material is nailed to the
three runners. Pieces by 4 inches
are nailed along the outside of the
floor to keep the sides from spreading

About 10 inches from the bottom Of
the sides a 2 by 6-inch piece is nailed
edgewise and braced at the ends by
blocks as shown in the illustration.
This piece will act as guard rail and

Fighting for Oppressed.

This is the spirit in which America
has entered the war. We are fighting
for the oppressed everywhere. And
we are equally determined that the in
justice and inequalities that exist in
our own government, the false stand
ards of worth, the materiallsm, the
luxury and waste shall be purged from
our midst. We shall seize this OppOr-
tunity to finish up the cleaning of our
own household. To sustain our army
and navy in the struggle for such a
cause, to uphold our president, TO aid
our allies who have fought so long and
so bravely, these. are worthy of our
sacrifices. l am confident that the re-
sponse of the American people to the
third Liberty loan will be generous.
