HUGE AMERICAN
 DIR|C|BLE SOON
 READY FOR AIR
R-38, Largest Airship Ever Constructed, to Be Com
 pleted Tn November.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 17-Latest reports received at the Navy De partment are that the dirigible R3S, now being constructed for the Am erican Navy by the Royal Airship Works at Bedford, England, is more than 60 per cent completed and prob ably will be completed and ready to take the air by the latter part of November.
 When the great dirigibe, which will surpass in size any airship ever constructed, thrusts her nose out of the hangar at Bedford for the first time there will be a trained to the minute American crew aboard to put her through her trial flight. Several training cruises on the Brit sh drigible R-33, offered by the British Government for that pur- pose, already have been made by the American personnel who will form the R'S's crew and the mann moth air ship will be manned by experienced sailors of the air when
 he sets out on her transatlantic flight. which officials say will be made next April or May.
 With gas volume of 2,72i,00o cubic feet, the R-38 will surpass in size the largest rigid airship yet turned out by the Zeppelin Company, Inc L-71 by 2O4.O0O cubic feet, and the British dirigible R-34, which crossed the Atlantic last year, by 711,00O cubic feet. Her six engines will develop 1850 horsepower, or l30 more than the most powerful Zeppelin craft and drive the great gas bag at an estimated maximum
 speed of 75 miles per hour
 TO accomOdate the G94 foot stretch ] of the R-3S. the naval airship hangar at Cape May, N. J., already has heen heightened to TOO feet and also increased in height The two large hangers now under construction at Lakehurst. N. J., probably will not be completed before July 1921. or after the R-3S's arrival.

UTAH AGCIES AT ODDS
 WITH UNIV. OF U. OVER
 ANNUAL GRID BATTLE

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Aug. ll. University of Utah and Utah Agri- cultural College, traditional football enemies, cannot agree when and where their annual gridiron battle will be played this year. The "U- Aggies' game is regarded as the climax of the football season in Utah.
 The Aggies want to alternate the annual combat, so that each school may have charge of it every other year. The University men are willing to alternate but do not want to play the game at Logan, the seat of the Aggies school, on Thanks giving Day, as they want big game here in Salt Lake for the holiday crowds.

PRODUCE MORE PER CAPITA
Writer Notes Favorable Sign in In
dustrial World, and Makes Some
Interesting Comment.

Recent reports to the federal res
serve board made note of one high
ly favorable symptom in the indus
trial world. Production per man, shows
a considerable increase. In other
words, labor is giving more for its
money. There has been a great
deal to criticize in this respect since
the reaction from the strain of the
war set in. There has been much loaf
ing on the job, and it has almost
seemed at times as If the rule was
getting to be to do the least possible
work for the most possible money. The
cost of living never can be brought
down under that rule, nor can the un-
rest Of the individual worker who acts
on that principle ever be allayed.
We have noticed many times in the
course of our own limited experience
in industry that the men who promote
discord and disloyalty and hinder pro-
duction around a plant are never those
who do their level best to earn the
money they are receiving, and, If pos
sible, an increase in pay. And we
have observed, further, that the fo-
mentors of dissatisfaction seldom
prosper so well or find so much JOY
in life as those who cheerfully do all
that is expected of them, or more.
To put the matter on its lowest ba'
sis, faithful work, like honesty, is the
best policy. Work is the paramount
issue before the country today, for it's
unanimous election would dispose in
short order most of the hardships
and abuses we complain so bitterly
about.-Ohio State Journal.

Issue on oulttlnn rlme.

To determine the exact time when
a miner leaves the employ of coal
company after serving, a quit notice,
testimony is being taken by the Penn
sylvania compensation referee in the
suit of Mrs. Apollonio Osika against
the Hudson Coal company.
Compensation for Mrs. Osika is
asked on the ground that her husband
was killed as he was taking his tools
out of the Pine Ridge mine prepare
tory to leaving the company's employ.
The coal company contends the work.
err had completed his last work few
minutes before the accident, and that
in serving his quit notice he no longer
could be classed as a company en-
ployee. Because Of the rival claims
the referee must determine the ex-
act minute when the miner ceased to
be employed and on the decision sim
liar cases that develop in the future
will be based.

CAREFUL HANDLING oF MILK
All Vessels Should BE Freshly scalded
to Remove 5aeteria-cover Will
Exclude odors.

No matter how well milk has been
handled up to the time it is delivered
TO the consumer, it cannot be expected
to keep welleif it is carelessly treated
thereafter. It should be poured into
pitcher, pan, or other vessel-freshly
scalded to remove any bacteria or mold
spores-and kept in cool, clean
place free from dirt, flies, etc. New
milk should never be mixed with old,
unless it is used at once, as the bac-
terra in the old milk will, of course,
be added also, and the mixed milk will
not keep as we'll as the fresh milk
alone.
Bacteria are thickest where there is
dirt and decay, and milk should there
fore be stored only in clean, sweet
places. 1t is safer to keep it covered,
to exclude not only dirt and bacteria,
but also the fiavors and odors which
it so easily absorbs. If kept at a
temperature of 30 degrees Fahrenheit
or less, good milk should remain sweet
for IL hours at least, after it reaches
the consumer, and ordinarily for "a
hours or more, dairy specialists Of the
United States department Of agricul-
ture say. Sometimes in very hot wealth
er housekeepers complain that in spite
Of all precautions it soJirs quickly,
even in the ice box. This is often
due to the fact that the air Of the ice
box, although it seems cold in contrast
with the heat outside, is really not cold
enough to check the growth of the bac-
terra; If thermometer placed inside
registers more than so degrees Fab
renheit the fault is almost surely in
the temperature Of the ice box, and
not in the milk.
In large cities, where most Of the

SIMPLE FORM OF ORGANIZING
No Capital Is Required, Farmers Of
Community Meeting and Sc
Letting Officers.

The simple form Of organization
that suffices for cooperative livestock
shipping associations is one of their
leading features. In the first place.
practically no capital is required,
since payment is not made to mem
bers for stock shipped until the re-
turns are received from the market.
To organize, it is necessary only that
the farmers Of a community. meet to-
gether, adopt simple constitution
and bylaws, and elect officers and a
board of directors, who in turn appoint
manager,
Although in order to transact bust
ness it is not necessary for an associa-
ton of this nature to incorporate I'M
der the state laws, It is advisable to
do so as protection to the members.
If not incorporated, the organization,
as such, can not sue or be sued, and

road wrecks or other cause the man.
ager could not enforce claims for the

own losses. The cost of incorporating

more than $40.

agriculture will furnish, on request
the essentials OF a model constitution
and bylaws.

FORAGE SUPERIOR FOR HOGS
Extremely High Prices Make It Profit
able to Substitute Grass
Crops for Grain.

With the present extremely high
prices of grain it is profitable to sub
stitute, as far as possible, forage
crops for grain feeds. A saving Of
Is to % per cent of the total amount
Of grain and supplements may be ex-
pected through the use of forage. Pas
ture crops, when combined with grain
feeds, viii produce the cheapest ra-
tons for both breeding and fattening
hogs, and the cost of gains will range
from one-sixth to One-fourth cheaper
than when the grain is fed in dry
lot.
It may be possible, in some cases,
with an abundance of good forage,
to obtain fairly satisfactory gains for
a time on such forage alone, but the
greatest returns have been obtained
when grain was fed in addition to
the forage at the rate of two to three
per cent of the weight of the hogs
per day.

Increase in Child Labor.

Four thousand more children are
working in Chicago today than year
ago, according to Clyde A. Brown, act
ing director of the city vocational
guidance bureau.
The increase in child labor is said
to be general in the middle West, but
exceptions are noted in Missouri, Kan
sas and North Dakota.
Necessity Of the child helping the
family meet the high cost of living,
the pulling power of higher wages and
scarcity of adult labor, together with
the discovery by employers that wOm-
en- and children could take the place
of men, were cited by Mr.. Brown
among reasons for a similar increase
in child labor in other parts Of the
United States.
Child labor in Illinois, which reached
its height during the war, when lib
eral Interpretation of the child labor
law was permitted for the sake Of
production, has not receded as it
should, according to Barney Cohen,
director of the state department Of
labor.
"Many employers insist upon en-
ploying children, when the work
should be for older workers." Mr.. Co
hen said, commenting on the twenty
seventh annual report of the chief fac,
tory inspector.

AIR-TIGHT WALL IS NEEDED
In Building a siIo Protection Must Be
Provided for SIage to
Prevent MoIding.

It makes little difference what ma
terial is used in building silo as long
as the silo is practically air tight all
around the walls and bottom. Wood,
cement, tile, iron, and plaster silOs
have been used with success. Protec-
ton against mold is. largely dependent
upon the exclusion of air, and for this
purpose an air-tight wall is required
and the ensiled material should be
properly packed in the silo. Silage will
keep equally well in any one Of the
silos mentioned provided the walls are
properly made, are air and moisture
tight, and the material is correctly en-
siled.

Not Enough Nutrition in Pasture
Grass to Make Maximum Pro-

The bulky nature of pasture grass

tain grass enough to supply the re-

lion should be Of a more concentrated
