 FOOD PRODUCTS
 PUT ON MARKET

WASHINGTON, D: C., July 29.- R)-A resolution was passed by the house late this afternoon requesting Newton D. Baker, secretary of. war. to place on sale immediately the sur plus food products now being held by the war department. The total value of this food stuff is estimated to sun into several hundred thous- and dollars.
 These supplies were contracted for and purchased by the war depart ment before the demobilization of the army started and it is now claimed that there is no need in such a large stock of food being kept on hand owing to the great reduction made in the military force It is the opinion of those who supported the measure that the government will be benefited, in n financial way, and the country at large, in having more foOdstuffs placed on the market by the sale of these supplies.

MAN HAS
 IMPROVED TONE
 IN MONOGRAPH
c. M. LANDERKING HAS INVENT
 ED NEW REPRODUCER FOR TALKING MACHINE AND I'M. PROVED MEANS FOR SOUND VOLUME-TRY IT TONIGHT.

NolL1 M IT. R
 G. M. Landerking, a we'll known old timer of this community, and at pres ent employed in the mechanical de- partment of the local bureau of mines station, has perfected an improved talking machine which reproduces the human voice, or anything else that any photograph does, in much louder and more plain sounds than has yet been done by any other in- ventor. A representative of The Citi. zen was given an opportunity to see and hear the new machine work yes terday afternoon and can testify as to the lOudness and distinctness of the reproductions
 In the construction of the talking machine proper there is practically no difference iron other standard makes. A common horn, sounding box. winding motor and tone arms are used. In the construction of the re- producer MT. Landerking has made a radical departure. Instead of using the mica plates and needle arm for reproduction by vibration, he has used two plates. One of these is a brass plate and the other steel. In each of these is a set of reeds, which, when the machine is not in opera. tion or no air pressure is applied, are meshed together. Common talk ing machine needles are used.
 By means of air pressure the sound is increased in volume many times it's original strength. A small motor attached to light socket is direct ly connected to a small air compress sor which is in turn connected by pipes to an air pressure tank. By means of small pipes the air is brOt to the reproducer and passes thru the reed plates, forcing them apart. From the reprOducer it is carried off down the tone arm and into the horn and sounding box.
 MT. Landerking has just finished his machine and will give demon stration of it tonight at o'clock at the Presbyterian church. The extra motors and air compressor are mounted behind a glass case 50 that they can be seen by all. The air pressure is governed by the speed Ot the motor, which is rated at one sixth horsepower and is controlled by variable rheostat. The loudness of the tone depends entirely upon the pressure applied, the stronger the pressure the louder the tone.
 The inventor played several Victor and Columbia records yesterday fol The Citizen representative, selections made at random, and the machine apparently did all that is claimed fol it. A patent, said MT. LanderkinG has been applied for and will prob ably be granted soon. He also said that he had one offer to begin manu featuring the new machine for the market.
 In speaking of his invention, he stated that it was part of a machine for talking moving picture" ma chine. He said that he is now cer tain that he has synchrOnized the picture machine and the talking ma chine and will be able to put out g complete machine which will make talking movies" real success. The most difficult part of his work, he said, has been completed.

HARD LUCK BIG :. FACTOR IN THE
 NENANA SERIES
LOCAL TEAM, ROBBED OF BOTH TWIRLERS BY ACCIDENT, PUTS UP PLUCKY FIGHT BUT LOSES OUT IN LAST TWO GAMES OF THE SERIES.

The three-game series of baseball ending Sunday afternoon between the local team and Nenana on the lat ter grounds was won by the Nenana club, which after losing the first came back and won both of the next games. Fairbanks players and fans, while not undertaking the Nenana club, claim that the Nenanaites ad- init that injuries to Fairbanks play CTS cost the local club the series.
 Steve" Wenzel, upon whom the bulk of the pitching for Fairbanks was to have been placed, fractured his pitching arm in Saturday even ing's game when a ball slipped from his grasp in the act of delivery. This happened in the fourth inning and Mills was called on to finish the game, holding the hard-hitting Nena- na team to four runs. He was start ed in the third game Sunday after noon and in the second inning a his right hand which forced him to his right arm which forced him to retire.
 These two accidents left the local |'team without regular twirler. They put in the best they had and played two hard games, hitting Hanson and Taylor hard and often but not enough to overcome the handicap under which they were working.
 SECOND GAME
 The second game of the series was won by Nenana by a score of 10 tu 8. Taylor pitched for Nenana and twirled his usual good game and his support was first-class. Bidwell start ed for Fairbanks but lasted less than three innings. Fowler took up the burden, but the five run lead which the Nenanaites had piled up could not be overcome. The local club made a strenuous effort in the last half of the ninth inning. At this time the score stood 10 to 5. Clean hit ting and good base running netted the Fairbanksans three runs and two men were on the paths when the third man was retired.
 THIRD GAME
 The third game was played Sum- day afternoon. Hansen went in for Nenana and Mills started for Fair banks. Both pitchers got away to a good start in the first inning and it looked to the fans like it would be question of teamwork in deter mining the winner. In the second inning Mills got busted finger. He tried to keep on going but was un- able to keep the pace. Before he was derricked Nenana mad accumu- lated four run lead.
 Pete McMullen relieved Mills and got by fine for two innings. Then the Nenana stickers got to him punching hits and increasing their total to 10 runs. Fairbanks played an uphill game and tied the score in the seventh, both sides being credited with scores. Keene replaced Nc. Mullen and in two innings pitched yielded one run while his teammates added one to their total. The final score was Nenana II, Fairbanks g.
