L OVER TOBACCO

North and South Carolina, Georgia and
Kentucky, the total percentage Of In
crease in the worlds crop will not be
greatly affected.
Meanwhile tobacco growers are re-
ported to be planting greatly increased
acreage in Kentucky. Those in the
central part Of the state, Commission
er Cohen declared, "are tobacco crazy"
He said some farmers had rented land
at 5000 an acre to grow tobacco. with
the cost Of production now $3.50 an
acre." he continued, "as compared with
$50 to $S5 a few years ago, this would
make the initial cost $3.50 an acre be-
fore a furrow is turned. Growers can
not hope to profit with tobacco at 20
cents a pound, which we fully expect,
and the production 300 pounds an
acre."
On the other hand the university bull
letin expresses the belief that taking
into consideration the abnormal con-
ditions in the tobacco market, the out
lcok for next years crop appears very
favorable.

TELLS OF FLIGHT
ACROSS ANDES

Neutrality-suspicious. America rapidly
is producing notable aviators. Every
encouragement to flying is given by
numerous private clubs that look upon
aviation as a sport and as the solution
of difficult problems Of the transporta-
ton of mail, passengers and merchan-
disc. Frequently only a few miles of
airline separate two important towns
between which communication except
by wire is a matter % days, if not
weeks. This is due to mountainous
topography, lack of railways and the
rough and winding character Of the
few roads and trails. These handicaps
seem only to stimulate the young
South American to greater feats in the
air and the governments to overcome
them by establishing regular service
as a matter of business. Together
these forces are working a develop
ment of aviation in South America.
Flight Across Andes.
The particulars of the recent fight
across the Andes of Lieut.. Dagoberto
Godoy Of Chile, have come to the Pan
American Union for. publication in its
next bulletin. AS the ocean adventure
will be the greatest straightaway flight
ever attempted, so was the accom-
plishment of the young Chilean army
officer the breaking Of the worlds rec
ord for height in crossing mountain
ranges. There are higher mountain
chains than the Andes, but none, it is
held, so. difficult to cross by flying. To
pass over the highest peaks has long
been the ambition of Chilean and
Argentinian aviatorS. The daring en-
gineer, George Newberry of Argentina,
was the first to be killed at the foot
Of one Of them in an attempt to accom-
plish the feat. Another Argentinian
engineer, Senior Mascias, also was
killed. Lieutenant Zani next got with

Nine and Three Tenths Miles Of
Ships Produced in District
in Year.
HIGH SPEED FROM START
One Hundred and Twenty-Five More
Cargo Ships Delivered Than From
All Other American Ways In
the Same Time.

Washington.-Nine and three-tenths
miles of clean-cut cargo ships. That
is the latest official report on the con-
tribution Of the Great Lakes district
yards to the American merchant ma
rine. Held by canal restrictions to a
lighter type of vessel than that made
on the coasts, the district did not pro-
duce so many net tons as certain other
sections. But it built more ships than
any other district in the United
States.
On September 1, 1917, the Great
Lakes started to build for the govern
ment. The first ship turned over to
the United States shipping board
came from a Great Lakes yard. She
was the Limoges, a 2,930-ton cargo
carrier, under construction for French
operators by the Toledo S%hipbuilding
company. On August "a, 1917, the
Ninth district was created. 1t turned
the Limoges over to the shipping
board on August so.
They had not permitted the grass
I'D grow under their feet for some de-
Gades in that region of busy commerce.
Now they saw to it that the ice did
not grow under their ships. To beat
not only the Hun but also the winter
season was the first big task which
the Ninth district faced. By almost
~superhuman effort the yards finished
27 vessels and got them to sea before
the canals froze in 1917.
Production Rose Steadily.
When navigation opened in 1915
another feet of 20 ships slipped newly
built from the yards and went through
the canals to the sea. From that date
the Great Lakes production rose
steadily until month after month the
district turned out half the steel ships
built in the United States, and some
times more than half. Efficiency and
energy combined in a veritable cru
SADIE of endeavor, and in November,
1918, the district touched the high
point of it's capacity. In that one
month it built a fleet of % ships
nearly a ship a day.
This astounding output brought the
total for the year up to 1853 cargo yes.
sells, one of them wood and the rest
steel. In u months the Ninth dis
trict had produced just 125 more
ships than all the American yards de.
livered in the year before America
went to war.
Any narrative of the Great Lakes
work is a progress from one shining
triumph of this sort to another. The

three berths, actually delivered IL
