South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1918-11-21

In that case an aerOnaut who had
/ been lowering in a noon calm over
New York would see the city shoot
away eastward from beneath his
/ feet, 70 disappear in a few minutes
over the eastern horizon, while fields,
| hills, valleys. cities and mountains
would stream after il so swiftly that
/ they would seem 10 be drawn out
/ into quivering lines. In an hour the
| fields and towns OF Illinois. south of
Chicago, would be speeding madly
below him; in two hours he would
see the plains Of Kansas flowing like
la yellow, tempest-driven sea; within
the third hour the Rocky Mountains
would sweep their long chain. like
q skipping-rope. beneath his feet;
then the white peaks Of the Sierra
Nevada would flash by like the rae
ing wave tops looked down upon
from the bridge OF a storm stressed
liner. while, in less than four hours,
the smooth curve of the Pacific
/ would rise to round the horizon in
the west, and the spinning ball of
the world would fall asleep" like a
top. with the steadiness of it's mo-
ton.
Perhaps the observer would
ascribe the motion to himself, al
though. if we suppose all friction
with the earth eliminated, the air
around him would be entirely un-
disturbed, and when, in twentyfour
hours. he saw New York shooting
past again, he might shink that he
had gone around the earth. instead
Of the earth having turned around
under him.
But while il is true that up to any
height to which an aeronaut could
ascend the atmosphere rOtates with
the earth from west to east at the
same angular rate. yet within the at
mosphere itself there are motions
independent of the rotation as a
whole. Winds and currents, caused
by heating of the air and by in
equalities of pressure, set up motion
in all directions, including vertical
or UP and down.

A LETTER FROM
LYLE KNOX

Mrs. Rhoda Bray this weeI
was kind enough to let US hav
a couple of letters to her from
her brother Lyle, one of tn
first to offer to volunteer his ser
vices on the United States oe
lclaring war against the old Bill
Kaiser outfit.
Lyle was at first turned dowr
because of his crippled hand
but went after it again and was
then accepted. A number ot
Springfield boys. went to camp
as volunteers at the same time
largely through Lyle's influence
and so for as we know, they
along with Lyle. are all max inl
good.
Lyle was at first at Fort Lo,y

were transfe rred to Camp Kear-
ney, Calf. where the winters
are coatle',s and the flowers
bloom perf.nnially.
At Camp Kearney the boys

developing them physically and
otherwise for any war emergen-
cy that might arise.
Lyle very recently was trans
ferred from Camp Kearney to
Camp Hancock, near Augusta,
Ca. and has indirect informa.
tion that very soon they will en-
train for Hoboken. New Jersey.
where at any time after their
arrival they may embark for
France.
Lyle writes mostly of the
climate and country where, he
has been--that he has had the
wonderful experience of going
through a winter that has been
all summer, and in countries
picturesque and beautiful.
One thing that struck Lyle as
being odd is the old-fashioned
way of farming-old-fashione
farm tools. and such like. He
says its funny country. and
he laughs a dozen times a day
at the funny things he sees.

Two per cent of this off for

$3.50 for one whisk broom ma.
chine. Add also freight from
New York to Lamar and thence
to Springfield, and the cost OF
shafting, pulleys, belts, and in.
stalling and lining up of the ma
chimes. and lastly the cost,
freight and installement Of the
engine.
At present we haven't the fig.
ures of these additional costs,
but what isgiven will give q pret.
ty acurate idea of the cost Of the
factory contemplated.
Here is the machine-tactory
estimate of the man power need
ed in this ten-unit equipment.
10 sewing machine operators.
40 men and boys on winders.
6 men and boys punching anG
scraping.
4 men and ooys on hurl cutters.
p men on corn-sizinR machines.
16 brush sorters.
10 general helpers.
This gives a grand total of 81
men and boys-in an equipmen
that would make something lik'
| 2, 900 tons of brush into brooms.
We have no data on tn
amount of brush grown in th
cnunty last year, but If 100
growers averaged two tons each
that would give 1000 tons; bu
we are guessing this 10 conside,
ably too high. !, -.
Before putting in tbs equiv
ment, however, the sssociatio
would know exactly the numbe
/ of acres belonging to stock hole
ers, and practically the numbe
| of tons-and the eauipmen
would be ordered accordingly.
