will each turn from five to fifteen
planes daily into our accumula-
ting airplane reserves.
Within year we have produced
5000 airplanes. This number can
be doubled, within the next year.
Recent speed and altitude tests
emphasize the fact that in the
Liberty motor the United States
has the peer of all airplane en-
gines. The big day bombers were
hurled through the air at 1873
miles per hour.
1t is in climbing, however, that
the most remarkable showing was
made.
A big De- Haviland plane, driven
by a Liberty twelve, and carrying
two men, making a total weight
of more than two tons, climbed
10000 feet in seven and one half
minutes.
A climbing speed of 1000 feet
per minute is normally considered
good. That means ascending at
about twice the speed of the ma
chine. But the Liberty twelve pull
ed the plane up 1888 feet per
minute, or one-third faster than
the usual battle plane. MS

Hlndenburs Again Reported Dead

London, July 13.--Another ru-
NOR of the death of German Field
Marshall Won Hindenburg is pub
lished by Les Nouvelles, Frech
language Belgian newspaper at
The Hague.
This paper says Hindenburg
died of congestion of the brain,
after quarrel with the kaiser,
regarding the German drive to-
ward Paris. The alleged interview
and clash is reported to have TAX
en- place at Spa, German grand
headquarters, on May f6. Apo
plexy is reported to have follow
ed as result of this quarrel, and
caused Hindenburg's death.
Hindenburg was 70 last fall.
After his crushing of the Rus
sian armies in East Prussia in
1914, he was made field marsh
al. Later he commanded all Ger
man armies on the east front. In
1916, August 80, he succeeded
General Won Falkenhhyan as the
chief Of staff, and afterward was
given supreme command of the
German forces.

Boys at Camp Ready for rrenoh-
es," Says -serg. Empey

A visit TO Camp Wheeler, near
Mason, Ga, where U. S. Regulars,
are in training, is all that any
American needs to convince him
that we will win the war, accord
ing to Sergeant Arthur Guy En-
pey, veteran of score of battles
in France, author of lover the
Top" and patriotic lecturer. Emp
ey, who's was wounded seven times
in battRe, recently returned from
Camp Wheeler, where he and a
company of Vitagraph players,
who appear with him in "Over the
Top" the screen version Of his
famous book, went to make trench
scenes. They were there more than
twoweeks and in the making of
the raiding scenes more than $500
soldiers we're used.
Albert e. Smith, president of
Vitagraph, says that the scenes
made there are the most impress
sive of the sort he ever saw, and
he believes they will prove reve-
lation not only to motion uicture
public, but ito the War Department
EOfficials as we'll.
Empey, who was formerly a
sergeant mayor in the U. S. Regu-
Elar Cavalry and saw service on the
Mexican border long before he
dreamt of a war in Europe of ser

On most farms more time is spent
in cultivating than any other opera
ton. Sixty per cent of the crops are
planted in rows that require culti-
waiting, which must be done at the
busiest season.
If one man is to farm more land
than ever before, which is absolute
ly necessary, he must cultivate more
land than ever before. With the
Moline-Universal Tractor one man
can cultivate two rows at a time and
do it better. quicker and cheaper than
with horses.
The Moline Universal Tractor
straddles the corn row-it has more
clearance than the ordinary cultiva-
torso corn can be cultivated in all
stages. The tractor is attached to the
cultivator and forms one complete
unit-the tractor the front wheels,
and the cultivator the rear wheels.
The operator sits on the cultivator in.
line with the right drive wheel of the
tractor, where he has clear and I'M
INSTRUCTED view of the rows ahead.
This is of the utmost Importance for
good work.
All the operator has to do is to
keep the right wheel of the Moline
Universal a certain distance from the
outside row and the whole outfit will
go properly. For lodging individual

and told him he had a date with
two girls and asked him to go along.
He said Wilson told him they had
not gone far until he asked Kyle
how far it was, and Kyle told him

told Kyle he was not going that far;
that passing up the track Kyle had
picked up a stick and he had run
across a bolt and picked it up; that
when he told Kyle he would go no
