MAKE A VARIETY OF
 U. $. BATTLE PLANES
Scientific Americanl

American battle planes are now be- ginning to make their appearance on the western front, and while no detass are available at the present moment re- garding the types in use, it is of inter- est to note the changes undergone by widely known types of domestic ma chimes. Certain of our machines have taken on characteristics of German battle planes. such as the tapered front, propeller pot, and fish like fuselage, while others have taken on the charac- ter'Ctics of the French Spad and the British Sopwith fighter. The America n machines in several instances are en- closing the V-shaped engines, leaving only the exhaust pipes showing, and these are grouped into one pipe on ei- ther side, which leads back and ends in a perforated taper. One widely known type of American airplane has been so materially changed of late that it is at first confounded with the French Spad; the engine is entirely inclosed; the wing arrangement is similar to the Spad: and the strut arrangement is identical to the French machine.

BIG GUNS DO NOT
 BOTHER TEMPE BOY

TEMPE. July 21-Mrs. M. E. Oller- ton has two sons in the service and the following is part of the letter from Milton who is in the 4th Infantry.
 I am sitting in front of my pup" tent in the shade of some locust and a cherry tree, (the cherries are all gone), and with nothing to do for a few hours, so I am going to start a note on it's journey. I think I can tell you that we are doing some real cam paigning. We haven't done any fight ing yet, but we are learning about it. The noise of a big gun shell going over our heads, or the burst of a shrapnel shell close by. doesn't cause any ex- citement at all. 1 can sleep so soundly within 100 yards or so of the big guns that l won't hear the mess call. The rattle of automatics and machine guns don't bother so much even when a few of the bullets come our way. l guess it would be different if we were Tn good range and the target. I am all most to the point of believing that the danger one comes up against in this war is not so very great. Of course when it comes, there is enough of it, | suppose"

Brothers Find Each Other.


 Correspondence >of The Associated Press)
 Officers emerging from little ho- tel in a town at the rear of the Ameri- can sector saw an American soldier rush up to 8 gray coated Italian soldier, seize him by the hand and then throw his arms Around EhiIn. Then the pair began to talk rapidly in Italian, both their faces wreathed in smiles, one occasionally pateing the other on the shoulder A curious captain walked oyer and asked the American soldier what "all the ex- citement" was.
 This is my brother" said the Amer Iican soldier" I have not seen him for nearly five years, when We were both in Denver"
 Then the soldier told this story, the brother in the Italian uniform nodding all the while:
 were working for mining company in ColoAldo, One saved his money and decided he would go back to Italy to see his, mother. The pair went to Denver where they separated. Upor reaching Italy the homesick one of the two decided he would stay awhile He did: then the war came on and he was taken into the army. Later brother number two enlisted in the American army and so they met here After talking two minutes they dis covered. that the Italian soldier was attached to a unit doing some work not five miles from the American soldiers billet. The Italian soldier had permission to be absent for the afternoon. The American soldier got a similar permission on the spot and the pair disappeared arm in arm.

 let us say, while flying from some aviation field, his burial would been a public. affair.
 The government he served for so brief a time gave him military fun eral at Fort Slocum, the camp in which he was stationed. Perhaps the governments duty ended there.
 But certainly his, city owed him something. Both the local officers of tine army and Mayor Wilson. the head of the Home guard, knew of this case But the appeals Of the family and friends of this boy were of no avail The mayor did not seem to know what his organization could do, and the army had no orders.
 If this is not a. duty of the Home guard, it should be made a duty al once A small detachment of men ir khaki, firing squad and a flag would have been enough.

HURTING THE CAMPAIGN.

Not a little surprise has been oc. casioued by the fact that Secretary McAdoo has decided that it is neces- sary to stop the giving out of the daily subscriptions to the third Lib- erty loan. This action is taken be- cause of the claim that it is difficult to properly estimate the subscriptions and that during the last campaign there was wrong information put forth and it is desired to avoid such situation this time.
 It can be readily understood that it is by no means an easy matter to get at the actual facts each day for the entire country or possibly for each of the reserve bank districts In the Casesof large cities the same sort of trouble may be experienced because Of the large number Of subscriptions, ttn likelihood Of Implications and the little time which is available for se- cC-ing the totals, but this situation locs not prevail in saiaiI communities EaG sh the effort to get everyone in- terrsted ard to have everyone do his part that tie number Of subscrihers may be Puasled Up to as near the twenty million mark as possible the incres sed Putiic interest which goes with the daily announcement of the subscriptions obtained is a most val 1sble incentive to others. It keeps the matter before them in a manner which is not otherwise possible.
 In a great many cities and towns il = can be told to a cent just where the subscriptions stand. There need td be no guesswork about it and no mis leading figures and the help whica ran he thus obtained ought not to be disregarded. It impedes rather than lelps the campaign.

THE casTLE-oN CUTOFF.

Not a little pressure is being brought to bear Epor the governor of New York to have him refuse to sign the bili wl'icl. viii prevent the build ing of tte so-called Castleton cutoff below Albany which would mean the construction of a new bridge over the Hudson for the purpose of relieving the freight congestion existing at the present time in. tte West Aibany freight yards. It is entirely possible that these efforts are not needed and that the governor will recognize tke necessity cf stepping such an attempt to place @ handicap not enly upon New Eiisiant hut because Of that up- on the whole country at a time when every transportation facility is needed but whether they are or not there should be no relaxation in the under taking, for the more that is said about this piece of legislation the better will be the understanding of the necessity ot defeating the effort to stop the con. stru1;ion.
 Albany does not want the bridge
 built because it is claimed that 1t will nbstruct the Hudson. Albany may have hopes of getting ocean liners te establish terminals in that city. but the question of a single or a double span bridge ought to be settled by
 the facts and a proper decision based
 upon the opinions of engineers. After
 looking ever the situation Major Gen. erai Goethals acting for the govern ment, has given his opinion to the ef. feet that the double span bridge vii not obstruct the channel of the Hud son, that such structure can b. built at much less expense and leav, the steel which would be needed fol a single span bridge to be utilized il the construction of ships, and that tht cheaper method should be permitted It will be most unfortunate thing i this bridge is blocked because of rail road antagonism.

The factory gong sounded and Charles placed his work in his desk and locked the office door. Then mechanically he pulled on his gloves, wandered down the wide steps and boarded car for home. But no, it was not home; it was only his rooms, his stopping place, and there was no one there to welcome him after his days work except his Gog, Ben. Dear old Ben was certainly d comfort and a ffiend but then he: was only a dog, and what did dog know Gbout human problems?
 The car stopped, and as the doors swung open Charles got off and en- tered his luxuriSnt apartment He was unmindful of Ben $ Hslighted barks and energetic tail waggingS as the big dog rushed joyfully to him. Flinging his
 hat, coat and gloves on aschair, he
 paced the floor restlessiy. Ben follow : ed him for a short time in his paciags, and then sat down and regardea his master reproac chfuiiy Such strange proceedings were too much for his dog mind.
 After iong time the young man pulled a. much worn letter from his pocket and read and reread a vertain
 passage of it that he already knew by heart. It read, Your eyes exempt you" This was the second time he had tried to join the colprs, and the digappoint seemed more than he could stand His. very life was with his country's soldiers, and he would have given all that he had to join them. He went to the long mirror and regarded himgef-tall, muscular and stately, but the one drawback, his eyes. Inlpatiently he sat down and patted the dogs head beside him.
 Say, Ben, how would you like to be !. a Red Cross dog and hove your master 8 soldier?' a$ He pictured himself marching proud ly away with gun on his shoulder, clothed in the much desired olive drab uniform. Then his dream shattered about him and he muttered: Well, Ben, old boy, l guess you and I belong to the home forces-p The dog seemed to bark understand ingiy and laid his head against his masters kneei

have amounted to 107, 7,760,
 The figures which the government obtained concerned those, however. which were actually paid for and 1t is within the bounds of reason to be- lieve that the number actually killed by dogs was much greater for there is no telling how many were actually kill cd and not reported. At the same time thexe are those which ars eften mutt lated though not killed and the effect of dogs among sheep is always a seri- ous detriment to the flock.
 Such a loss in sheep from such a reason is ground enough for the de- mand for laws which will prevent such losses and especially now when wool and mutton are in such demand, and as said before when it comes to choosing between sheep and dogs which Kin them there can be no question as to what the decision ought to be.

OTHER VIEW POINTS

Last week a young soldier of the national army was buried in Bridge port, his birthplace and home. He was laid to rest in the uniform of soldier Of the United States. His casket was covered with the flag of his country.
 Yet outside of these honors, and the reference which the clergyman made to his brave service to his flag, there was not the slightest recognition that here passed soldier who died as truly in the nations service as though he had been killed upon the field of battle.
 How can such things be in this city where the Home guard Is supposed to be ready for instant service. and where there are stationed attachments both of the army and navy of the United States?
 Had this boy been killed in action, or,
