Webster City. Dec. 22,-The inven-
ton Of an engine which will work on
the same principles as the human
body, drawing Its fuel from the oxygen
Of the air. Is now being completed by
a Webster City man, Arthur Bundy,
The machine when completed will
bring to practical use theory upon
which scientists have been Iaborina
for many years-that there II way
In which the oxygen contained In tnl
AIR may be condensed SO as to 1orm
fuel for motive power.
At his shop on Seneca street, Mr.
Bundy has been WORKING on his inven-
ton for many weeks. and expects
within q few days now to have it en-
tirely completed. The success Of the
engine is practically certain. as this Is
the second Bundy has built, the first
being small test machine. The
machine he is now completing. how
ever, is large enough for use.
Has Air Cells.
The engine Is composed OF q very
few pieces. the most important being
a generator and a series of rotary ali
cells. Into this generator certain gases
are placed which draw the oxygen
from the air. The oxygen II then dis
tributed thru the rotary, air cells
forming the fuel which creates the
pressure for the motive power. The
same principal has been applied as
body, distributed thru the lungs. FORM

now working has q capacity of "

a. a rate OF speed almost twice as
great as any has yet been able to go
An automobile with an engine of this
new human" type would be able tc
travel at a rate Of $50 or 200 miles an
hour.
The cost Of the gases which are
placed in the generator would be APP
proximately I cents for forty eigh,
hours for a machine working constant
ly. ...
NO Electricity.
There are no batteries. no spark
plugs, no gears, no electricity Of any
kind In the mechanism OF the engine
and the inventor claims that 1t han
thirty-two times the power per square
inch as any other piston engine now
in use. The parts are easily and
quickly put together, and Bundy de.
clares they can be reassembled In Il
minutes. s..,.
The oxygen Is forced into the rotar,
cells with such force that an explosion
occurs at every quarter, turn Of the
shaft. which creates the power OF the
engine. ~ ~ sse.zs,
Mr.. Bundy has applications for pat.
ent ready to fife as soon as the engine
upon which he is now working is com.
pieted Thus far his work has beer
more or less behind closed doors, but
within a few days he will be able tc
show the invention to all those wht
are interested. The various parts car
be easily manufactured and when once
put into general use several hundreds
Of the engines could be manufactured
In one day. Within ninety days, Mr.
Bundy expects &c have the engine OF
the market.

Corn on the University Farm

The corn crop at the University
Farm, near Tucson, has been an
exceedingly fine one this year, the
yield being unusually heavy and
quality good. The work of putting
the crop into the two silos has just
been completed. Mexican June
corn was grown on an old alfalfa
field which was seeded to barley
last fall. Because of the favorable
soil and weather conditions, the
crop grew very rapidly and re-
quired only one irrigation. One
border was not irrigated at all after
planting and the yield on it was
practically as good as on the irri-
gated borders. Many of the stalks
stood twelve to fourteen feet in
height and were heavily cared.
The sorghum crop is not yet
ready for the si1o. It is making a
splendid growth, and it is expect
ed that the yield will be unusually
heavy.

for storing valuables which in
clude fresh and sa1ted meats, veg
etables, coal, stove wood, and most
everything else in these days of
limited production and unlimited
profteering. And already it has
become a source of trouble not un-

The Creamery

The creamery proposition men
toned briefly last week seems to
meet the approval of number of
farmers, and with some one to
take the lead, it might be worked
up without much difficulty. This
is not the last of the proposition
by any means. Wherever there is
a creamery rightly managed there
is money in circulation and a more
prosperous and thrifty community
than where there is none. There
is no donbt that one could be made
to succeed here provided the citi-
zens cooperate and put forth rea-
sonab1e amount of effort to make

Mr.. D. A. Adams, Of Dragon,
who is promoting an oil company
in the new Texas oilfelds, has re-
ceived encouraging news from his
men in charge during his absence.
He received a telegram a few days
ago stating that the drilling had
reached a depth of 1900 feet, and
calling for him to return at once.
This is taken to mean that the oil
stratum is believed near by the
drillers and they are expecting to
strike it at any time. There are
nine producing wells in the terri
tory Immediately surrounding the

courage the owners in their ex-

The fame of the Benson sme1ter,

Review contains the following arti-
Gle in regard to it:
It is stated that work on the

ing rapidly. A force of men and
teams are at work now grading for
the new railroad spur from the
Southern Pacific lines. The work
of concreting the smoke chambers
and lead to the stack has been COM
pleted. The big compressor has
been installed and is ready to be
started. The boilers are in place
and ready for the fires to be light
ed. The oil tank is in shape and a
spur will be continued on to it so
that the oil can be unloaded direct
into the tank. A large cement
water storage tank has been COM
p1eted and filled with water. The
present furnace is capable of smeIt-
ing 200 tons of ore a day. Some
ore has already been received and

Texas Stockmen Want Arizona
Cattle
(Tombstone Prospector).

Fred Bennett and Lee Harring-
ton, we'll known Cochis> county
catt1emen, went out to the Barba-
comari district today, where they
go to look into the situation with
the idea of buying.
Mr.. Harrington recently return
ed from Texas, where he shipped
carload of Arizona steers, and he
says the demand for these animals
in the Lone Star State is surpris-
ing. This is occasioned by the fact
that these steers are particularly
adapted to certain ranges. which
are of hi1ly nature.
He has been requested to gather
shipment of 1000 of the Arizona
animals for shipment to Texas,
and is making a tour of the various
ranges of the county to see what
can be done.
The Texas cattlemen are offering
a good price for Arizona steers, as,
they say they are of more rugged
type and answer the demand for a
mountainous range. Another fac
tor that occasions this demand is
the fact that the cattlemen of Ari-
zona were among the first to real
ize the benefit to their herds by
adding thoroughbred animals, with
the result that Arizona herds are
considered among the best.

French Like American Canning

France, the land where everyone
is supposed to be good cook, likes
American methods of home can
ming.
Four home demonstration work
ers were lent to France by the u. S.
Department of Agriculture in the
month of June. They were to give
demonstrations in the methods of
home canning which have proved
popular in the United States dur
lug the last decade. Their work
in France has been attended with
marked success. The first series
of demonstrations was concluded
early in August and the second
was started
In the first series the work, as
planned by the Minister of Agri-
culture and carried out by the
Americans, was the teaching of
agricultural leaders, who in turn
will teach the French people.
Among those who attended this
first series were four directors of
agricultural colleges, two chiefs.
one inspector general from the min
istry of agriculture, twenty-one
professors from different agricu1-
tural colleges. four woun d e d
French officers, the wives of some
of the professors, one directrice,
and two teachers of higher schools,
about 100 in all. The series con-
sisted of demonstrations in the can
ming of fruit, vegetables, meat and
fish. Between the two series a
course in canning has been given
to girls from the devastated areas.
The second series, for teachers of
movable schools, began the second
week in August. Other countries,
following the example of France,
are asking for American demon
strators who can teach American
methods of home canning.
