USE AIRSHIP
To Supervise Cotton Growing

For the first time in history, cot
ton growing will be supervised from
the air when within the next four
ilonths small dirigible will be used
for this purpose on the $4,000 acre
plantation of The Goodyear Tire g.
Rubber Company at Goodyear and
Litchfield, Arizona, near Phoenix.
At present mounted overseers are
employed, but the company has been
obliged to use more modern means
by the acquisition of many thousand
more acres of desert which will be
irrigated to grow long staple cotton
used in fabric for the manufacture of
automobile tires.
Besides its use for purposes of SUI
pervision, the dirigible will proba-
bly, be used to transport Goodyear
officials to Phoenix and even as far
as the California factory at Los An
geles, trip If about 400 miles.
For these purposes the pony
Diihip typC VI All snip Will ne uSeu
because of its ease in handling and
small crew requirements Built as
the first dirigible used in this coun-
try for commercial purposes, the
little airship, probably the smallest
practical dirigible ever constructed
is now being manufactured at the
company's shops in Akron. Ohio.
Completion is expected within four
months, after which the ship will be
sent to Arizona and used for inspec-
tion and supervision of the immense
cotton plantation of the country in
the midst of the desert
But 95 feet long. 20 feet high and
40 feet in diameter, this $4,000 Gu
bic foot capacity dirigible will be
able to make speed of 40 miles an
hour over the plantation and will
have a range of 400 miles at cruis-
ing speed. The pilot and overseer
will be able to cover the plantation
easily in a short time and can make
landings at any point whehe atten-
ton is required.
Company officials believe that the
use of an airship for purposes of
supervision on the cotton plantation
will show that this commercial use
of dirigibles can be extended to
wheat field survey and similar pur-
poses.-GoOdyear News Service.

FERTILE EGGS SPOIL QUICKLY

Fifteen million dollars is a lot Of
money, but that is the amount that
the United States Department of
Agriculture estimates farmers lose
every year thru bad methods of pro-
ducing eggs. This loss is due to the
partial Matching of fertile eggs which
have been allowed to become warm
enough to incubate. 1t is a prevent
able loss and, If checked, will add
dollars to the poultry flock profits.
The remedy is simple, have the flock
produce infertile eggs, after the
Matching season is over.
An infertile egg is one laid by a
hen that has not been allowed to
run with male bird. After the
male bird has been removed from
the hens, two weeks is usually long
enough to insure the laying of in
fertile eggs.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.-The Govern
ment to-day petitioned the District
Supreme Court to appoint trustee or
trustees to take possession of and sell
the stock yards properties of the big
Five" packers. 1t was asked by the
Government also that the trustee or
trustees receive power to take possess
sion of all stocks, bonds and other
securities owned by the defendant
packers representing their interests in
stock yards properties and that these
properties be sold in such manner as
the court may direct after due notice
to the defendants. The petition is made
returnable on December IA.
The petition, which accompanied the
Governments objection to the various
proposals Of the packers for disposing
of those properties. declared that the
packers had failed to present a suit
able plan to the court, although nine
months had elapsed since they under
took the task.
BY It's petition the Government has
an affirmative stand on the question of
disposing Of the packers stock yards
interests, according to counsel for the
Department Of Justice. 1t was explained
that heretofore the Government had
merely objected to plans offered by the
packers without suggesting method
for divorcing the properties as required
under the consent decree in the packer
cases.
The Government petition said that on
December IA counsel would move that
a decree be entered appointing some
suitable person or persons as trustee or
trustees to take possession of and hold,
subject to the order of the court, all
stocks, bonds or other securities owned
by any OF the defendants representing
ownership Of or interest in any public

United States, or in any stock yard ter

BosToN, Nov. 30.-Charles f. Hughes,
counsel for the trustees OF the Chris
tan Science Publishing Company, de-
clared to-day before the full oench OF
the Supreme Court that the vote TO
remove Lamont Rowlands as a MEM
her Of the board of trustees was IL
legal. The removal was also Illegal,
he said. because Rowlands had not
failed to fulfil his duties.
Mr.. Hughes was followed by Edwin
A Krauthoff. who appeared in sup
mort of his own phase of the Christian
Science controversy: Attorney General
Allen. speaking for Massachusetts,. and
Charles f. Choate. Jr, who is assist
ing Attorney General Allen. Soon az
ter Mr.. Choate began his address the
court adjourned until tomorrow morn
ing.
Mr.. Hughes attacked the proceeding
hrousbt by Gen. Allen, saying his Dill
had no standing The bill. he said' was
nredicated on a trust that has no ex-
istence.
Mr.. Hughes opened by stating that at
adjournment yesterday afternoon ne

minutes OF the organization, as result
of the meeting of September ., 1882

tion of officers and did elect officers In

as stock raisers and feeders. In connec-
ton with the proposal that the packers
get first and second preferred stock in
the holding company, the Government
pointed out also that the decree pro-
hibited any of the corporations from
holding stock In a holding company.
Further objection was made because the
plan contained no provision for ultimate
disposition by the packers of this pre-
ferred holding company stock, and be-
cause the amount of stock to be issued
was far in excess of the value of securi-
ties to be transferred.
The packers, according to the plan,
would participate in the syndicate to the
extent of two-thirds. which the Govern
ment contended gave them control, and
finally the Government argued that the
plan was probably in violation of the
Sherman antitrust law.

Power Losses.

Leaks mean power wasted, lost.
The leak may be of water, fuel or
oil, but no matter what it 10 it
wastes power. Slight leaks here and
there may cause total loss of pow
er that will be serious. There are
dozens of joints in the engine and
each one may spring a leak under
certain conditions. Good gasketing
is the best insurance against leaks,
but it is not all the battle. The
joints must be inspected frequently.
II you are not sure OF the existence
of leak squirt little oil over the
suspected spot; bubbles will tell the
tale of leak. Cylinder head hold
ing down nuts should be frightened
occasionally. The inlet manifold,
if it is outside the casting, should be
tightened to the carbureter and CYL
inder block. Remove the pan under
the engine and see if there is any
dripping. Go over the three major
systems, water, gas and oil, and stop
any leak found. For oil paper gas
keting is best. Use wrapping paper
and be sure there is no break in the
gasket at any point, around the stud
holes. Asbestos coated with graph.
ite makes the best gasket for inlet
manifolds, carbureter flarges and
similar locations. Joints that carry
hot gases should be fitted with gas
kets of copper covered asbestos. In
certain cars special types of gaskets
are recommended for various loca-
tions. These types should be pur-
chased from the service stations and
used as directed. The important
thing is to insure against leaks. for
every leak means a power loss.
