His Fatal Error.

poor old feller!" sympathetically
said the landlord of the Petunia tav-
ern, as funeral procession trailed by.
HE was our last lingering horse doc
tor. For years he went around haul
ing open horses mouths and wagging
his head as if he had discovered some
thing absolutely unheard of in the an
nails of horse history. Probably he
didn't really know much about horses
but he loved to associate with them.
After he had outlived his usefulness
and almost outlived horses he would
go poking around among the autos and
muttering. And day before yester-
day, when he found one standing
alone and unhitched, he went in front
of it and tried to open its mouth, or
something; anyhow, 1t gave a snort
and ran over him, and fetched his
checkered career to an end. Well

The postal censor in London was the

mail until each portion of II could be

can be obtained from the fact that a
staff OF nearly hundred expert lin

Beet and Cane Sugar Crops.

Beet and cane sugar combine to
make nearly an average production Of
sugar in this country for the season
beginning in 1918. A little over
million short tons, or LOOT, $50, is the
total Of the two crops, according to
estimates, subject to revision, made
by the bureau Of crop estimates. The
average of the preceding five years Ia
1,O31 ,6O3 tons, or somewhat greater
than the production Of 1918.
The cane-sugar crop Of 1918. how
ever, Is estimated to be 266,95O tons,
or considerably above the average Of
the preceding five years, 24S, 496 tons.
while the beet-sugar crop of TAO 100

Washington,-PreviO to the entry

problem of airplane radio development
had received attention from the army.
In August, 1910, the first wireless
transmission from airplanes was made.
In the years following the development
Of the airplane radio was carried on
through series Of accomplishments.
These may be summed as follows:
1912-Message transmitted from air

The British postal censor is soon GO
Ing the way of the telegraph and cable
censorship-out. Judging from criti-
cisms In America, such as that of the
Merchants association to the postmas-
ter general, the going Of this war In
stitution will be just as joyously well
coined abroad as In England. But
think war restrictions have held over
too long. the postal censor. in the opin-
ion of those who have watched his
work from the viewpoint of British and
allied security throughout the war,
has been of the greatest service in
defeating Germany.
The nearness of the date of the de-
mise Of this institution has called forth
considerable information about its
work Thus far. however, there has
been no amusing side such as was
shown during the obsequies for the
cable censorship.
Just after Mr.. Lloyd George succeed
ed Lord Kitchener as secretary for
war it is related that he provided the
ammunition for the censor to give the
photographers lease on war life. Mr.
Lloyd George went to BramshOtt to
about to cross the channel. After
the Inspection he made a speech from
his motorcar, concluding with a quo
tation from the Bible: "And may thu
Lord of Hosts be with you" Core

COntemporaneous with this was the
commercial development Of the radio

engineers Of the American Telephone
and Telegraph company. This culmi-
mated In successful transmission
from the naval radio station ut Airing
ton to stations thousands Of miles

In May, 1917, steps were taken to
combine the experience of the engi-
neers and Of the army in developing
the airplane wireless.
Six weeks later the airplane tele-
phone was fact, and in October, 1917.
a long-range test was made. Tele-
phonic communication was carried on
between airplanes in flight up to %
miles apart and from airplane to
ground up to distance Of As miles.
The development of voice command
ed flying was definitely begun ut Gerst-
ner field, La, In May, 1918. On June 1
an aerial review was given by an air
fleet Of two squadrons Of 18 planes
each, followed by close order drill
by section Of six airplanes.
Throughout the review and the drill
command was exercised by the voice
of the commander flying with the fleet.
In September following, voice COM
manded flying was instituted at sew
eral other fields.
Avoids Many Accidents.
BY using the airplane radio tele-
phone in instructing aviators in aerial
gunnery it was found possible to reach
the same efficiency with a saving OF
one-third of the time. BY exercising
control over pilots in the air, accidents
were practically eliminated.
