Fiber Containers May Take
Place of the Tin Fruit Cans.

The annual report of the department
of commerce sets forth the dire need of
tin cans and the efforts the government
is making to conserve them. During
the early days of last summers cam
paign for the preservation of perish
able fruits and vegetables, government
experts tested the possibility of utiliz-
ing once used tin cans, but investiga-
ton proved the ACCESSIBILITY of aban-
doning this plan in favor of defining"
process, whereby most of the steel and
tin is recovered for further use in man
ufacture. The government is now per-
Suading factory owners to substitute
paper or fiber containers for all nom
perishable articles heretofore put up
in tin. This, it is expected, will to d
certain extent offset the tin cans
shipped to the army in France. The
balance of the loss will be made up
by salvaging used cans.-Leslie's.

Italy is queen of the air.

Italy is queen of the air.
England's defense Of the sea with
her Mammoth Navy; Frances heroic
infantry checking the first onrush Of
the Hun at the Marine and at Verdun !;
Americas vast contribution of ma
terials and money in the past and of
fighting reserves in the future, are
matched by Italy's contribution to the
allied air navy, which will determine
as much as any one factor our final
victory over the Teutonic Powers.
The general public, amazed at the
marvellous performances of Italy's air
fleet during Cadorna's drive over the
Alps, at the record breaking feats of
Resnati, Laureati and D'Annunzio
and at the wonderful mechanical
achievements of the great Caproni and
POmilio planes, still have little realiza-
ton of the vast scope of Italy's
achievement in aviation since she en-
tered the war three years ago.
In February, 1915, there were in all
Italy only 100 aeronautical workmen
When that country entered the war a
few weeks later she possessed alto
gether only so flying machines and
those mostly of the French type. But
the Italy of poets and singers is also
the Italy Of mechanical genius, of Mar
conf and Tesla, of Caproni and Po-
milo. Seeing with clear vision that
the fate of civilization lay largely in
the supremacy of the air, and particu-
larly the need Of air defense for her
own long coast line, her statesmen set
out to build new industry from the
ground up. They gathered together a
vast number of men of energy and Gre
alive ability in order that they might
bring their contributions of research,
invention and technical knowledge to
a development of those machines of

Tons of Free Seed Sent by
Government the Past Spring.

To comparatively few of us has it
ever occurred that the United States
government is one of the worlds larg-
est buyers Of garden and flower seed.
The few ounces of seed carried to us
by the poStman give no impression of
the acres upon acres of land devoted to
their propagation, or the care taken in
determining their fitness for planting.
But these small envelopes represent
tens of thousands of pounds of the best
seed procurable.
1t is Illuminating to know that the
aggregate weight of the free seed cir
culated from Washington this spring
amounted to 1906 tons, or, for the
sake of juggling figures, 15,969, 900
ounces. OF this amount it is also in
teresting to know, corn seed predomi-
mated, 100000 pounds of it being mailed
to various sections Of the country. Ma
chimes are used which automatically
proportion the seed by weight, fill the
individual packages and seal them

Use More Hominy
Several Kinds Of This Real
American Food

Americans Have we forgotten some
of the best foods we once knew Are
you using hominy? Why not follow
the example of our forefathers and use
much of this good corn product? The
first settlers of America learned from
the Indians how to prepare the Indian
corn for use. They removed the hulls
from the dry grain by pounding it In
a mortar with a pestle. The cracked
corn they called by the Indian name
';hominy." Hominy became one of
their staple foods without which they
would often have gone hungry. They
cooked it in huge iron kettles hung
over the blazing logs in the open fire.
place.
They also learned to remove the
germ and hull from the corn by boiling
the grain with I've and then washing
thoroughly. They sometimes called
this product ''hulled corn" but it is now
more often called "lye hominy."
There are several kinds of hominy
on the market. If you do not know
how good they are, try them and find
out, advises the United States depart
ment of agriculture.
The coarse hominy, samp, or pearl
hominy.-This is much like the hOminy
the pioneers used. The grain is split
to remove the germ, hulled and pol
ished by machinery. 1t is much used,
particularly in the central and eastern
states. 1t is worth using everywhere.
The fine hominy or hOminy grits.-
This is made by grinding the coarse
hominy. GritS are excellent served as
a vegetable much as rice is used. Grits
are also used in many parts of the
country as a breakfast food.
Lye hOminy-Lye hominy is made
at home by many and also made COM
mercially by boiling the grain in I've or
potash until the germ will come out
and then washing out the lye. In
many places it may be bought in bulk,
and is also sold canned. 1t may be
dried for future use or canned at
home.
All varieties of hominy are good
nourishing food. Like wheat, rice, and
other cereals they give both body fuel
and bodybuilding material at a COM
paratively low price. Let them have
q larger place in your diet.

In differentiation the best Italian

naissance work, having a speed of
over 100 miles an hour, and the fight

Gently put out a 800 H. P. machine
with a speed of 157 miles an hour
capable of climbing 10000 feet in six
minutes.
Giovanni Caproni, creator of the IA
nous Caproni machine, is planning to
build after the war a f1ier carrying 80
passengers, with which he expects to
cross the Atlantic in As hours. In
fact. he had hopes at one time of eS-
tabliShing during the latter part of
this year Paris to Washington mail
route, flying by way of Portugal, the
Azores, Newfoundland and New York
City. The longest leg of this trip over
water is 1,195 miles, which, he says, is
we'll within the range of the present
CaprOni machine 1t would be a strik-
ing repetition of history if the nation
which gave US Columbus, the first man
10 sail to the new world by water,
should also furnish the first to follow
that route by air.
Not only in building, but in handling
aeroplanes have Italians excelled. One
of the worlds records taken by an
Italian was the feat of Captain Giulio-
Laureati, who established a new
long distance flight record by flying
more than 900 miles without stopping
from Turin to Naples and return in
August, 1917. Lieutenant Resnati as
tonished Americans during his flights
here by going up 1900 feet with ID
men on board at Newport News and
by flying from Mineola to Langley
Field, near Newport News, distance
Of 800 miles, with ten passengers
aboard.
Excel in Dirigibles Also.
Not only in heavier than air ma
chimes, but in the dirigible lighter than
air type has Italy excelled. The For
lanni dirigible has a record of lifting
four tons of bombs 1873 feet as
against the best Zeppelin record of
49, 23 feet with a similar load. AS
submarine chaser her non-rigid type
of dirigible has been very effective.
We cannot say what will happen in
the very near future, but we can af-
firm that Italian technical men, fully
realizing the always increasing exigen-
cies of war and the value of aviation
in the war, are continuing to work for
ever newer and more powerful types
which will in the future enable Italy
and her allies to keep that supremacy
in the air.

are being fought today. AS a result
Italian aviation has established a new
record in the history of industry.
A New Born Industry.
To the immense and famous Italian
industrial centerS, already strongly
organized and active in general auto
mobile construction, was added the
new industry of aeroplane construc-
ton. AS result Italy today has over
10000 experienced wOrkmen in this
field, and her government possesses
over 5000 military and naval planes
and is supplying others to her allies
by the hundreds. Many of the planes
America has sent to the French front
were made in Italy, and Italian planes
are being shipped here for the training
of our aviators.
Such firms rs Fiat have accomplish
ed marvellous 1sults in a short time.
This concern turned out a 700 H. p.
aerial engine, and other firms devel-
oped successful engines of 160, 200 H.
P, etc. The big Pomilio plant was
erected in three months time. Today
there are more than % aeroplane fac
tories in Italy, and that country has
the distinction of producing the fastest
aeroplane in the world, the fastest
seaplane, the largest flying machine
and the best climber.
A great secret of Italy's success was
the large and powerful engines she
had already perfected in her automo-
bile industry. These engines, develop
ing from 500 to 700 H. P. and later 900
II. P. and over, made possible the
building of much larger planes than
had ever before been supposed posi-
BILE.
Italy's aeroplane plants have been
kept in operation, notwithstanding adj
verse conditions, such as lack of coal,
when wood was substituted for power
generation, and the buildings in which
the people worked were so cold that
varnish would not dry. Another great
obstacle was the lack of chemicals.
Right here Italy pays tribute to
America. 1t was American raw ma
terial that made this great develop
ment possible.
Record Breaking Planes.
New designs of aeroplanes are being
turned out constantly by the Italian
factories. One Of her machines produc-
ed last year is capable Of carrying II
tons. She has planes capable of carrying
a crew of Is men and is now develop
ing one with a capacity Of so men and
a horsepower of 5000. She also has
planes capable of travelling more than
900 miles without stop. One of the
Italian type of machines carries nine

Author of "BIest Be the Tie"

The hymn known by its first line as
"Blest Be the Tie That Binds" was
written by Rev. DR.. John Fawcett, an
English Baptist preacher, who was
born in 1740 and died in 1917. He was
noted as a religious worker and wrote
many other good hymns, but none so
famous and popular as this one, which
has been used by different denomina-
tons. Tradition says that the author
wrote 1t under a sort Of religious in
spiration which made him refuse to ex-
change the pastorate Of a small pro-
vincial church for that of strong and
rich one in London. The hymn has
been sung on many historical occasions
as peculiarly expressive of Christian
fellowship.

Cravath's Grudge Justified
Benny Kauff Pulled Down
His Long Fifty-DoIIar Fly

Gavvy Cravath holds a well-defined
grudge against Benny Kauff of the New
York Giants. When a fellow virtually
reaches right in ball players pocket
and extracts so simoleons therefrom,
he's no friend of said ball player.
Benny Kauff didn't do that exactly,
but he might just as well have done it.
The alleged misappropriation happen
ed in Philadelphia, the other day. Cra-
vath. some walloper when he gets hold
of the ball, crashed the sphere to right
center on this particular day and the
ball was headed straight for a big
sign. AS is well known, the reward
The Adair County news., 1918-07-03

for rapping this board is $50. No one
In the park thought Kauff had a chance
to intercept the speeding sphere, but
that is just what Benny did. He got
under it, braced himself against the
sign and stretched both arms far above
his head. He caught the pellet an
inch from the fence.

rapd-fring guns. Italian designers by
synchroniZing propeller revolutions
with machine gun fire have placed ma
chine guns on planes that fire 600
shots a minute through the prOpellers,
which make 1000 revolutions a min
ute, the calculation being such that no
shots strike the prOpeller-One shot
passing between the blades with every
two turns of the propeller. In addi-
ton to the machine guns a multitude
of bomb throwing, position finding and
other devices of great utility in battle
and in bOmbardments have been per-
fected by Italian genius.
Italy has developed the best type of
machine for each class of war work.
Those for night bOmbardment are the
CaprOni biplane of $50 and GOO H. p.
and the Caproni triplane of 600 II. P.
These planes have an average speed of
about 100 miles aD hour and carry
large load of bombs. For day bonn
bardment one of their most efficient
machines is the STA type, with one en-
CINE of 700 H. P, which develops an
average speed of 125 miles an. hour
and has a capacity for 700 pounds Of
bombs.
Glasses of Fighting Machines.
One of the best italian machines for
reconnaissance work is the POmilio
two scatter of 300 H. p, with a speed
of 125 miles per hour, carrying two
machine guns and a large load of
bombs. Similar to this is the 300 II. p.
Sia Besides this, they posses for
rapid work a Sva biplane, single
scatter of $50 II. P. and a speed of 80
miles. Italy's best fighting planes are
the POmilio single scatter and go II. p,
with protective armor and carrying
two machine guns, with a speed of 80
miles an hour, and the AnsaldO single
SeaterS of go II. P, with a speed Of
$50 miles.
