AERIAL APRONS
GUARD LONDON

gradually close in their fire so the
enemy could not escape, the aerial
box" gradually being narrowed.
The entire process depended largely
upon listening devices which could de-
tect the approach of humming air
plane miles away.
Efficient Defense System.
The defense system was so eff
cient that 10 per cent of the raidlns
machines We're kept out of London.
And those machines that got past the
barrageS had great difficulty in escap-
ing. To the terror of bursting shrap-
mel was added the confusion of Nerey
lights, some red, some blue, others
green. white, yellow and orange, and
these flashing lights, intermingled
with the terrific din of the exploding
shell, so confused aviators that they
lost all sense of direction and space
and many of their machines got out of
control, becoming an easy prey. In
such cases British birdmen would APP
proach. firing on the enemy machine,
anti.aircraft guns would halt, and the
hostile plane would be brought down
by burst from the British plane. But
often there were fierce duels, marked
by spitfire from the machine guns of
the contending flyers.
The course which the raiders took
was traced out, minute by minute, by
the "stethoscope" operators, and d.
rections given to searchlight crews,
anti-aircraft gunIers and flashed 10
airdromes by aerial defense headquar-
tiers, which conducted the LATHE much
in the same way as a general in the
field.
Scarcely a Gotha got through the
outer London barrage unscathed. The
faint hearts who couldn't penetrate
the barrage often turned back, only to
find they were outnumbered four to
one by faster G-itish machines.

London.-Some of the wonders
achieved in aerial navigation and 9TH
err wonders contemplated were spoken
of by Maj. Gen. Sir F. FL. Sykes, chief
of the air staff. in an address before
the chamber of commerce.
1t was asserted by General Sykes
that in four months between July and
October, 20 trips were made across the
English channel. The mileage ira
vers,d was S,0S5 and 1,S43 passengers
were carried, although flying was pos
sible onl.s on II days.
AS for the future, the government
was looking forward TO weekly mail
service to India, for which % machines
would be required and the charge for
sending mail few shillings an ounce.
Another route contemplated was from
Cape Colony to Cairo, for which air
planes and flying boats would be used.
Suggesting that airships might be
adopted for long distance flights. Gen
eral Sykes said a German Zeppelin

LOndon.-LondonS aerial aprons. or
how the Gothas were kept away,
might form one tense chapter in
book about how the British baffied the
Hun air raiders. The last six months
of the war there was not single air
raid on London, d<e, in part, to the
fact that the city's defenses were such
that they filled enemy flyers with ter
ror. Any aviator that escaped the
death traps-and the chances were
about one in three he would not-Sen-
orally was of little value thereafter Tor
flying, because his nerves We're shat
tered. A British aviator who by acct
dent was caught in the aerial barrage,
but managed to land safely near Lon
don, tossed on a bed, verging on in
sanity for weeks, so horrible was the
experience.
Roughly, there were three chief
weapons for dealing with Hun air
raiders; the aerial barrage, aided by
searchlights; fast, fighting scout planes
that attacked the invaders, and aerial
aprons. The Germans, it may be noted
were never able to perfect any scheme
to prevent British aviators from
bombing Rhine towns even in the day
time.
Aerial Aprons Queer Things.
The aerial aprons were queer
things. They reminded one of rope
portieres. Upon signal, captive bal
looms were sent aloft from the out
skirts of the city, the balloons being
in pairs. These buoyed up a curtain
of dangling ropes, a half-mile or so
long. These aerial aprons served two
purposes: First, they forced the raid
ers to fly high, and when they flew
high they could not drop bombs eff
fectively; second, any machine dart
ing into the ropes courted destruction.
When flying high they were met by the
British fighting scouts. These aerial
aprons were shifted daily as to height
so enemy airmen could not be fore
warned
London always had the protection
If four score airplanes during the
could mount to 10000 feet. The avn
Gtors were picked night flyers. At
such heights it is difficult to see an
other airplane at 100 yards. But at
given signal these birdmen took to
he skies, jealousy guarding the APP
proaches to London. These brave fell
lows often chased q hostile machine
into the barrage and a few British
birdmen were killed by their own
shells. But whether it was Zeppelin
or a Gotha that was bent on baby kill
ing the British scouts would swoop at
their foes like hawks.
The barrage was almost like drum
fire. There were two outer barrages
and one inner. Scores of guns, many
of them six-inch rifles, were employed
in this work. They generally worked
in batteries of four, each unit of the
battery, perhaps, being mile or two
from the other units. The four guns
would endeavor to get hostile plane
IN the center of their box fire, and then

prepared by the United States Deparr
ment OF Agricultural
More hog-cholera serum was manu-
featured last year than in any previous
wear. despite a decrease in the amount
of hog cholera. The increased demahu
for bog-cholera serum is aScribed 10
tbe greater value of hogs, with the
consequent greater loss when one dies,
and to the fact that hog raisers are be-
coming more appreciative of the value
of ueing serum manufactured under
federal supervision.
Department of agriculture officials
warn hog raisers against the indis-
criminate use of medicines or proprle-
tary preparations other than seruins'
as experience has shown that nothing
except serum, properly prepared ana
administered, is effective. Medicines
other than serums, according to de-
partment officials, are worse than use
less, because they not only fail to cure
or prevent disease, but allow the loss
of the animals they are advertised TO
save, thus taking money from the
farmer and meat from the nations
supply.
Antitoxins, serums, and other bloiog-
lcal products for the treatment OF DO
nestle animals must be prepared In es-
adjustments operated under licenses
issued by the secretary of agriculture
before they may be marketed legally
In interstate trade. Products of IL
censed establishments are prepared
under the supervision of trained veter-
inarians and their assistants of the
bureau of animal industry Of the de-
partment. Sxty-eight veterinarians,
In addition TO forty-one inspectors and
clerks, are now engaged In this work
and are located in eleven states.
Federal regulations require that all
animals used in the preparation or
testing of hog-cholera serum and
hog-cholera virus, both of which are
used In the treatment of hogs In the
prevention Of hog cholera, be procured
direct from farms and not transported
through stockyards or similar places
where they might be exposed To CON
tagious diseases. AS an additional
safeguard all animals must not only
be inspected ty bureau veterinarians
al the time they are presented for adj
mission to licensed establishments, but
each animal is carefully inspected ut
the time of incubation as well as Inn
medlately before bleeding for the pro-
duction of either virus or serum.
Veterinary biological products, after
being properly prepared, are tested by
laboratory methods and upon animals
to determine whether they are free
from concentrating organisms and
will accomplish the object for which
they are intended.
Federal inspectors, MS well as en-
ployees OF establishments, are required
to keep satisfactory records relative
to the inspection and manufacture of
all products. In the year 1917. 25O.-
O4l ,29O cubic centlmeters of anti-hog'
cholera serum were collected in H.
censed establishments. or this amount
1,S67. JOG cubic ccntimeters were de-
stroyed as unfit for use.
