Luminous Bacteria

There is striking article In Hnowl-
edge on luminous bacteria. Mr.. Bar
nard, who writes the article, Includes
careful. directions as to how the light
producing bacteria may. be obtained
and grown. These bacteria emit light
that is produced entirely by themselves
altogether independently OF any ex-
traneous light source; in fact, they
grow and produce light better il kept
entirely In the dark. Their efficiency
as light producers'is extremely high
and were 1T possible to carr out on
commercial scale the process of light
production as 1t occurs in basteria a
tremendous step forward would be TAX
en-. The natural habitat of these or
ganisms seems to be almost exclusive
ly sea water, or at least Yates such
as is found in estuaries where an ap-
preciable quantity of saline matter is
present. The most easily produced
organisms of this group is the photo
bacterium phosphorescens. 1t may be
obtained from dead herring or mack
erel.

TRAGEDY ABOVE The CLOUDS
Individual combats and Disasters That
Test the Nerves and Wits, Of the
Flying Fighters.

Though airplane battles Are ire
nsendously exciting for all those par
ticipating in them, it is not always I'm
actual conflict that the nerves and wits
OF flyers are tested to the utmost. Many
adventures may be met in tanner pur-
suits. Il
Every now and then comes the, roar
OF gun from below, followed by fash
es Of blue and red, harsh, angry explo-
sions right and left, front and rear;
the disappearance in flames sometimes
Of what till then had been welcome
companion on the wing, the drone OF
some hardy adventurer strenuously en-
deavoring to climb into the night, and
now and then the awful spectacle of
q machine emerging safely from a
smoke cloud only to go smash into an
other travelling in different direction.
An awful smash, a hideous explo-
sion, smoke, human cries, flames and
then, with volcanic Intensity, the sud-
den plunging into the abyss not only
Of what few moments previously
were two magniffcently equipped bomb
throwers, but four human souls, brave,
proud, youthful and advenfurous.-

BIondin,s Feat Recalled.

In the whfrligig of momentous
world events it is not. strange that
there should pass almost unnoticed a
few days ago the fifty-eighth ami
versary of Biondin's exploit of cross
ing Niagara gorge on a four-inch
tight rope, feat that still stands as
the. acme of daring and nerve. One
OF the thousands of spectators that
lined the river bank was the prince
of Wales, late King Edward. This was
the first time anyone had crossed Nj
agara gorge on rope. Blondin car
ried man on, his shoulders on one
trip. wheeled a wheelbarrow. over on a
second trip, and on a third trip car
ried stove on his balancing rod and
fixing it on the rope, cooked cakes and
threw them to people in small boats
below on the river, Blondin was after
ward killed in Paris.
He made test in 1859, and in the
following year successfully car
ried out his feat, October 10, 1860.

WHAT OUR DEFENDERS cosF
At Home 1t Is 1927 and Overseas s42s
Year for Each ManeIn the
Service.

Statistics have been collected by the
Clothing and equipage, subsistence,
conservation, reclamation and hard
ware and metals division Of the quar-
termasters' corps, United States army,
to indicate just what 1T costs a year to
maintain soldier overseas and in the
United States.
These, according to the Army and
Navy Journal, show that the cost is
$423.47 a year to equip and maintain a
soldier overseas and $327.7S to equip
and maintain one In the United States.
Subsistence, figured at SO cents a day,
amounts to $251. S5 yearly for each
man overseas; figured at 81 cents
day in the United States. it amounts
to $1S9.S0. The cost OF the initial
equipment for the soldier the first year,
In the United States. is $1l5.30, while
the cost of his additional equipment
for the first year overseas is $42.4E &
Thus 1T appears that If the soldier
going overseas did not take with him
a great deal of his equipment already
supplied in the United States the con-
ftIdSt DetWeen the COST OF eQulpplng
and maintaining soldier in this coun-
try and abroad would be much more
marked. Not only is the amount Of
equipment needed abroad greater than
that needed in this country, but the
statistics of the conservation and re-
clamation division show that equip
ment and clothing overseas are subject

GROSSCUP WINS OUT In
SUIT OVER SALE OF HAY
Jury's Verdict is Overruled by Judge
in One of County's, Hardest
{, Fought Legal Battles

One Of the hardest fought legal
battles to be fought out in this coun-
ty for several years, which occupied
nearly the entire time Of Judge John
Truax's court this week, is the case
of Alice M Rennie, as executrix OF the
estate Of Robert A. Rennie VS.. the
Yakima tGrosscup) company.
The Rennie estate in bringing the
suit claimed that. the Yakima COM
pany had contracted with Robt. Rem
ME, before his death, to sell him hay
at specified price for: a period OF
five years, that the hay had been de-
liyered under the contract until 1918,
when the price went far above the
contract price. The contract, it was
alleged, was only verbal and no writ
ten document was in existence.
After being out from Wednesday
noon until Thursday morning the jury
brought in a. verdict allowing the
plaintiff Judgment in, the sum of $14O0.
Judge Truax, however, held there was
no contract, overruled the verdict and
entered Judgment for the Yakima
company. The case will probably be
carried to the supreme court.
Scott Henderson and Sullivan are
attorneys for the Yakima company,
and Preble and Thompson, of Yakima,
attorneys for the Rennie estate.
