destination of American shipping off

the navy department had no positive
information of the presence of enemy

Big Wheat Acreage Planned.

AS a war measure, suggested BY the
Department OF the Interior, between
10000 and 100000 acres Of land on
Indian reservations in Montana and
Wyoming are 10 be placed under culti-
vation for wheat growing, with the f.
nancial backing OF Eastern capitalists,
il was announced in New York.
The government will maintain the
system Of irrigation already existing,
and the Montana farming corporation,
organized with J. P. Morgan among its
directors, will pay fixed charge for
the use Of the water and will supply
funds for extensive agricultural ma
chinery and for improvements TO the
properties on the land. The govern
ment will cooperate in supplying equip
ment and labor. Mr.. Morgan said that
while he and his associates hoped the
enterprise would not prove losing one,
the determining factor in their decision
TO stand behind the plan "was the de-
sire TO lend our aid and cooperate with
Secretary Lane in this war measure Of
increasing the supply Of wheat by cul-
tivating on a substantial scale lands
which otherwise would not be used"

Machine Gun is Efficient Weapon.

"Of all the weapons used in the pres
ent war, the machine-gun has unques-
tionably proved itself the most eff
cient," says a British expert, in the
London Daily Mail. "Probably ma
ority Of the casualties in the war have
been caused by this weapon; certainly
the greater proportion of the enormous
losses during the fighting of the past
few weeks have been so inflicted. Any
type Of machine gun in the hands of a
skilful operator has the same destruct-
i've effect upon men moving in mass
formation that keen-edged scythe has
in a field of ripened wheat. 1t cuts
broad swarthes; nothing can stand
against it. A well-served machine-gun
is the most formidable thing that at
tacking battalions have to face. 1t is
not merely the front ranks that suffer.
At anything approaching close ranges,
the bullets will go through the 'front.'
rank men, often through the second
rank as well. and kill or wound those
Immediately behind them"
There are several types of machine
gun now in use in the British army,
such as the Lewis, the Maxim, the Wick
ers, and the Hotchkiss. All are very
{ mobile. They can be moved quickly
from one place to another, advantage
being taken of any cover that offers.
Each class of machine-gun has with it
a squard of about 10 men. Should they
find themselves pressed too closely,
they pick up their weapon, fall back
with it. and reopen fire upon the enemy
from the next favorable position.
One authority has declared that in
the field one machine-gun is worth al
most a whole battalion of men armed
with rifles. Few soldiers can keep up
IS rounds per minute rapidfre with a
rifle, but a machine-gun can discharge
600 rounds in a minute, and the Wick
ers can discharge 1900 rounds without
stopping. Bullets pour from the muz-
zle in rapid, devastating stream, and
as these guns use the same kind Of
ammunition as a rifle, there is little
difficulty in keeping them fed.
The Lewis gun is described as the
most mobile. One man fires it, using
AZ rounds in succession. Besides his
is another man who puts on fresh trays
of ammunition as required, the change
being made in two seconds. Meanwhile
other men are hard at work filling trays
and passing them on for use. The gun
has an effective range of about l,2OO
yards and can be fired either from a
stand or parapet, the gunner placing
the piece to his shoulder as he pulls the
trigger.
The Maxim and Vickers gun are fired
from a tripod, the gunners squatting
with legs a-straddle, and pressing key.
AS long as he keeps his finger on the
key the gun continues streaming out
bullets as the belts, each holding 20
cartridges, fly through it. Gripping the
handles with both hands, the gunner
moves his weapon back and forth,
playing on the advancing troops much
as a fireman plays hose on burning
building. Guns of this kind can also be
used for putting by barrages, and it is
possible to attack with them targets one
cannot see.
At the beginning Of the war, the
British army had two machine guns to
each infantry battalion. The number
is now much larger. In addition, a
special machine-gun corps has been
| formed.
