A|RPLANE COVERS
CH|CAG0-OTTAWA
ROUTE IN ONE HOUR
AERIAL EXPRESS SENT OUT BY
SOCIETY BRAND HOUSE AR.
RIVES HERE IN TEN MINUTES
LESS THAN TIME ANNOUNCED.

All time records for covering the
route between Ottawa and Chicago
were knocked into a cooked hat this
morning when Lieut. ID. l.. BehnckC
driving Curtiss model training plane,
flew here from the Society Brand
hangers at haywood in sixty minutes
fiat Lieut.. Bchncke announced We'd
nesday he would cover the aerial
course in seventy minutes, but he beat
his own expectations when he landed
on Peck field, south of the city, at
ll.30 o'clock sharp, after having Gov
cred the eighty-three miles just as the
minute hand completed one revolution
on the dial of his plane clock.
Avoiding an sensationalisms in his
flying, Lieut.. Behncke sailed direct to
the landing field when Ottawa came in
sight. He spotted his landing place
from an altitude of $500 feet and
banking to the left to get in line with
the field, he zOomed down to a few
hundred feet and as gracefully as a
bird coming off the wing, settled in
the pasture hove to and brought up
within a few feet of the road, where
he was given applause by a large
witness the landing.
A delegation of city and county Of
tcialS were assembled at the landing
field to welcome the birdman. In the
party were j l. Bane, president, and
j. + Farrell, secretary, of the Cham
Der of Commerce; Chief Of Police
James Grove, Sheriff c. S Ayers, Post
master James DOugherty and newspa
permen. Gus May, whose La Sale
street store dispenses Society Brard
clothes, was in charge of all the ar
rangements, and was first to greet
Lieut.. Behncke as he stepped from the
iusilage of the machine.
Delivers Clothes and Papers,
Creating the first Chicago-Ottawa
aerial express, Lieut. Behucke dcliv-
cred a consignment of clothing to Mr.
May. While the bundle was not
large one it contained toggery made
by the wen known Chicago house.
The lieutenant then delivered to An
drew Kracen local newsboy, two large
bundles of Chicago papers, which were
made part Of his load Of freight The
souvenir editions were snapped mp like
hot cakes, and when the ncwsv
started for town he didn't have many
Of EN- left to dispose Of in the loop.
Off for GaIesburg.
Fiqnt at 4 80.
The birdman got away promptly at
! o'clock for GalCsburg after luncheon
at the Elks' Club. At 4:@0. he an
ounced, he would return to Ottawa
and stage an exhibition flight, bring
ing with him a Galesburg woman. H.
Ward Condc, ottawa autOmobilist, was
scheduled to make the return trip
from here to Chicago with him.
The machine, in excellent condition,

necessary to order a larger body, still
using his Dodge Brothers power

essential. he says, in maintaining his

Thus is eliminated the terror Of

government in helping to build these

from the proceeds from the sale of

will also furnish the new farmers

years.
These farms will contain from 40

poses. from 80 to 100 acres for live

for fruit farms. and from 5 to 20
acres for truck farms.

practice will be stationed on each

STATE TO HARVEST
HUGE WHEAT CROP
WINTER SOWING TO YIELD MORE
THAN BOTH CROPS LAST
YEAR; MORE HAY, TOO.

Washington's prospective winter
wheat crop alone will exceed her
combined 1918 winter and spring
wheat production by over 100000
bushels, says the government crop

seeded last fall came through the
winter with but per cent loss. A

was harvested 9,424.OOO bushels.
With the insignificant acreage

since 1900 and May LIST condition
OF 1908 per cent. the highest on
record. the United States has in
sight winter wheat crop of 899,-
100000 bushels to be harvested from
4S.224,OOO acres. the report contin-
ues. Last years crop amounted to
o5S.449,000 bushels, harvested from
36.7O4,100 acres.
The preliminary estimate of the
rye acreage to be harvested in this
state Is placed at 10000 acres COM
pared with 1000 acres harvested last
year. A condition of 81 per cent of
normal forecasts a production of
some $4,000 bushels, compared with
1900 bushels in 1918.
Since the restrictions against cut
ting grain for hay have been removed
"a larger hay crop Is in view, espe
cially in the large grain sections. Due
to a dry season last year there has
prevailed a serious. shortage in large
areas Of the state and it is esti.
mated that only per cent OF last

EXPLAINS PLAN Of
FARMS FOR SOLDIERS
DEVELOPMENT Oh POLICY DE-
PENDS ON CONGRESS- NOW
IN SESSION

(From the Secretary OF the Interior
WASH1NGTON.--W an cver-in-
creasing tiCod of men returning home
from the war to take up anew the
tasks Of civil life. many of them with
greatly changed ideas of life and anu
billions and in a quandary as to Just
what to do, appeals are reaching the
department of interior for informa-
ton as to the intentions OF the gov
eminent in its proposed plan of pro-
viding farms for soldiers.
The interior department has
already explained to more than 49,
900 men that the development OF its
plans rests solely with congress.
Briefly the department is saying that
If such legislation is passed work
will begin at once in the develop
ment of cooperative farm settle
ments for soldiers and sailors in
nearly all of the states In practi-
cally every state in the Union there
are large areas of land suitable for
this purpose. There is dry land in
the West that needs water, which
can be provided by building dams
and canals. In the East are large
areas of cut-over or logged-off tim
Der lands from which it will be nee
essary to blow the stumps and clear
on the underbrush. In the South is
. large amount of cut-over land and
swamp land which must be drained.
Many Of the soldiers have asked if
it will be possible for them to obtain
q job near their homes by draining,
clearing. irrigating and improving
these lands. That again depends
upon the action Of congress in pro
viding the money for construction
The plans propose that these settle.
ments be scattered all over the coun.
try. 80 that It would be possible fol
every hOnorably discharged soldier
or sailor or marine to work near his

all kinds in connection with these
settlements, from the highest tech
nical and clerical positions to that OIL
