value Of thick seeding Of milo maize
on the farm Of Mr.. Frank London,
my experience on his farm has been
very interesting Mr. London's
father and two brothers have felt all
along that they could not learn much
from the demonstration, while Mr..
Frank London himself has been a
very close student OF the methods
advocated By the demonstrator. In
the preparation Of land last fan he
prepared his 100 acres according TO
my Instructions and his father and
brothers followed his plan. This
spring he asked advice regarding
planting milo maize. advised him
to plant seed every two inches in
order TO have a stalk every two inches
and thus prevent suckers. This sug-
gestion called forth considerable
comment on the part Of the father
and two brothers. and some good
uatured testing. However. Mr. Frank
London made up his mind 10 try
part Of his crop according 10 my sug-
gestions and planted eight acres in
this manner and eight according 70
the old method Of planting maize
The crop tells its own story now. The
thick seeding produced a great many
more heads, better forage and the
crop is all even and ready for har-
vest, while the maize which suckered
has one ripe head and from one to
four suckers, coarse stalks. and
those heads on the suckers just past
blooming. which makes very un-
even crop. This demonstration has
convinced the father and two broth. (

STEADY FLOW
OF US. PLANES
FOR THEFRONT
War Department Confident
Of Air Supremacy for
Our Army.

A steady stream OF American bat
tie planes soon will be flowing from
this country to the western front.
The FIRST shipments. 6ve months
ahead OF schedule. as announced by
Secretary Baker Wednesday, will be
followed by others in rapid order.
Oficials at the War Department last
night appeared to be little concerned
over reports of German air supremacy
in the sector held by American troops
Reports of aerial engagements are ne
eeived almost daily. il was pointed
out. and this activity would tend to
show that the enemy does not enjoy
uncontested control OF the air.
Gen Pershing has not reported any
such conditions to the War Depart
ment, il was officially stated last
night. The recommendations of the
commander Of the expeditionary
forces with regard to airplanes are
being carried out promptly.
With the peak OF production to be
reached within the next few weeks,
army authorities are confident that
within a comparatively short time the
American air fleet will be adequate
to wrest decisively all semblance Of
air control from the Germans.
It is said that the number Of Amer
lean airmen now trained and in train
ing Is sufficient to warrant ootimism
in this respect.

GAS RATE HEARINGS
MAY BE REOPENED
Controversy Over Valuation Indi-
Gates Further Discussion.

Hearings on the request OF the
Washington Gas Light Company for
permission to increase their rates from
rs cents to sl.10 per 900 cubic feet be-
fore the Public Utilities Commission.
which closed last Saturday. may be
reopened.
AS yet no hint OF the decision Of
the commission whether to refuse or
grant the increase in rates asked by
the company has been given.
Disagreement over the valuation OF
the property of the company set some
time ago by the commission, with the
aid OF experts brought here to assist
in the WORK. may be the lever that will
reopen the hearings.
The valuation placed upon 1t by the
commission now is being fought by
the company in the District courts,
and it is said officials feel that rate
revision should not be based upon a
value said to be unfair.

GERMANS ADVANCING

To the Russian capital the landing

holds the gravest menace. From Hell
singfors. the Finnish capital. these
troops could reach Viborg in a COM
paratively short time and then dash
eastwards directly against Petro-
grad.
Before this movement has progress
ed to any extent a naval drive into
the Finnish gulf by the German fleet

Islands is expected.
The dispatch that told Of the land
ing Of German troops in Finland
stated that Swedish forces were with
them. This confirms the version that
Germany is trying desperately to en-
broil Sweden with the Bolshiviki. so
as to gain the Scandinavian king

ance.
