BRITISH NEWSPAPER WELL

London, Jan. 3.-The Morning
Post In an editorial says Secretary
Daniels proposal to build moro
powerful Navy should be entirely
welcome to this country.
Hitherto the task of increasing
law and order upon the seas, the
destruction OF piracy, and the SUI
preston of the slave trade have been
discharged almost alone by the Brit
lsh Navy That service during the
last hundred years surveyed all the
seas and coasts, aud published charts
thereof for the use of all other Ma
lions. In time of war the British
Navy saved Europe, not once nor
twice and has imprinted so formid
able a memory upon the hearts Of
restless aut cracies that time and
again the mere threat Of naval action
kept the peace of the world. Ger
many remains The only enemy TO be
feared by civilization east or west
for the time being. Any increase OF
the United States Navy can but serve
the common object of America and
OF the Allies to keep Germany im-
potent to work evil for q generation
or more. when Mr. Daniels talked
OF a supreme American Navy being
necessary If the peace conference
fails TO agree upon the Limitation OF
ornaments, he is quite right. We
would 20 further and say that 81
America will stand the expense she
would be well advised TO keep o
strong Navy in any case For the

are assured never will be used for

Prince Carl OF Germany is OF a
branch OF the Hohenzollern family
that have no standing except kim
ship to former royalty, but he was
some sort of an army officer and
since the armistice he has been per
mitted TO meet the army of occupa-
ton and he likes the allies, especial
ly the Americans.
He told a correspondent that he
was always opposed to the German

gram and thinks his country should
not have started the submarine war

THIS RAIN MAKER FIRST
PRODUCES \ LOCAL CYCLONE
One at his Machines Win BE sui
iicicnt rlr County, Texas
Invcrtor Says.

BrowEwood, Texas. Ira Terrell.
a local inventive genius has obtained
a patent on rain-produclng ma
chine. which he says will be placed
on the market soon.
II is claimed by scientists who
have examined the apparatus that it
is perfect in principle and that 1t
should be effective ia practice. Thu
machine will be called the "cyclo-
rain" because its main working bas-
is acts like that Of a cyclone.
BY means Of four powerful cham
bers, whose total strength will be
.2OOO horsepower, the machine will
start and maintain for an indefinite
number of hours a storm center by
forcing upward 100000 cubic feet
Of air per minute with a velocity o.
one mile a minute The air curren,
made by the machine will be forced
to ascend, thus Gisplacing the cool
air above.
The warm air coming in contact
with the cool air viii cause moisture
and precipitation Il is estimated that
the rain thus derived from the ma
chine will cover one Texas county
and that one machine in every arid
county will be sucfficient to cause
rainfall in plenty

New Light And
Shade Effects In The
"Fear Woman

New effects in motion-picture
photography have been developed
bv Cameraman Edward Gheller in
"The Fear Woman" Pauline Fred
erick's last Goldwyn production,
to be shown Friday, July 25th at
the Opera House.
In the light-and-shadow scenes,
the long shots through windows
and doors, up driveways and
through arbors, and in the extra
ordinary closeup effects, Mr..
Gheller has brought forth a num-
Der Of new lens tricks. In his
close-ups of the star and her sup
porting cast he has invented
new focus, which brings unusual
brilliance to the eyes, intensifies
the lighting on the hair, and COM
pletely obscures all background
without the use of a back screen.
An extraordinary long shot was
taken through a second-story win
dow in a hotel, showing the de-
parture of two figures in motor
car. Heretofore such effects have
not been produced because, in
focusing on the window, the ex-
terror would be blurred. This ef-
feet, said Mr.. Gheller, was obtain
ed by using double lighting behind
the camera, thus softening the
| light in front of it, and intensity
ing the distant objects.
i In "The Fear Woman" are a
; number of scenes that resemble
framed paintings, taken through
doors and window lodges. A par.
ticularly sumptuous hotel lobby il
shown through a mission archway
a "shot" of the boudoir of Heller

his skill with the lens, has beel
j able to focus on certain objects il

To Kill Weed Seeds
In Fertilizer

According to information re-
ceived by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, the
Wichita Union Stockyards Com
pany is installing a modern drier
plant for the disposition of ma
nure, with a capacity of one hum
dred tons a day.
This plant of three concrete and
metal buildings, includes a storage
structure, 80 by $50 feet: where
the manure is delivered by wagons
over an inclined viaduct and
dumped at the second story. The
building is so arranged and locat-
ed that one entire side may be fill
ed with refuse direct from the
.stockyards, while the contents OF
the other side are being emptied
into the drier room, mechanical
conveyors being used in this work.
In passing through the driers,
the manure is subjected to suffi-
cinet heat to destroy the vitality
of ali weed seeds and to reduce
all hay and straw Of the raw
manure to fertilizer form.
! After being dried, the fertilize,
will be conveyed through series
of pulverizers and after it is re-
duced to the desired degree of fine
ness it will be placed in sacks. ant
stored in the wareroom, which i!
60 by 100 feet. Thence the finished
product is loaded on cars for ship
ping to the agricultural districts
This arrangement insures cleaner
more sanitary bins and yards a
the market point, while it also pro
tests the farmer who purchase
the fertilizer from the ihtroductio,
of noxious weeds and diseas
germs to his fields.
