MOHAIR WOULD BE GOOD TIRE FABRIC
 VISITOR DECLARES

Mohair, because of it's strength, is believed to be an excellent fabric for pneumatic tires. according to Mrs. NJ. Armer Of Kingston, N. NJ. one of the largest mohair growers in America, who was in the city yesterday. Her opinion is that a number of other lead ing mohaj- growers, according to in formation received by the Phoenix chamber of commerce
 The matter of making such fabric has been submitted to the Goodyear and Fi~estone people by the chamber, which suggested that an investfga- tion be made and offered to furnish the mohair.
 F. P Hilton of Pantana, Ariz, in an article published in the Angora and Milk GoaS Journal. Portland, Ore, says: Recently I saw an item sug- gestiRg nlohair for auto tires. and I think 1t would be a very good idea for some CT the mohair growers to bring the suggestion to one or more of the tire makers. If they could use mo- hair in the manufacture of tires. in- stead of cotton, it would be a great item for the mohair industry"
 Sixty per cent of the Salt River val ley is planted to tire cotton this year. according 10 government official fig ures. Arizona and New Mexico com bined comprise the second largest mo- hair growing region in the United States. For these two reasons the chamber of commerce decided this an opportune time to suggest an investi- gation by large tire makers

Owe Lives to New Device.

New York.-The rescued officers
and men of the United States subma-
rine SIS, who were submerged for
more than AZ hours in their crippled
submarine off Cape Henlopen, owe
their lives to a hitherto little tested
safety device-the telephone buoy
developed during the world war.
The steamer General George w.
Goethals, blowing along her course off
the cape, caught the insistent clang of
q huge gong; sighted a buoy where
the mariners charts showed no buoy
ought to be; drew closer and observed
that there was a telephone on the
mysterious buoy. A few moments later
the Goethals had a boat oversize and
this message came up from the deep:
1.-THE submarine SIS has been sub.
merged for IS hours. Air is running
short. Machinery damaged. Send for
help"
The Cocktails wireless flashed the
news ashore and within a short time
fleet d%estroyers and other naval craft
were rushing to the rescue. The
Goethals, in the meantime, got a line
about the stern of the SIS and draw
ing it to the surface, drilled a small
hole through the metal hull through
which air was pumped to the %suffocat-
ing men until the rescuers arrived.
This S Of the telephone buoy is
said to have been the first critical
test to which the apparatus has been
put since IT'S development less than
three years ago. 1t has been placed
on only a few Of the newest subma.
rines, and many naval officers were
ignorant even of it's existence, until
it's dramatic entry as the savior of the
SIS crew.

sHALE FALL FATAL TO THREE
First Accident in Two Score Years in
Cave Of Winds.

Niagara Falls, N. 1.-TWO women
and a man were crushed to death and
two men were injured when a slide Of
shale forced out a bridge leading to
one of the stairways in the Cave Of
the Winds, under Niagara Falls. A
hundred or more tourists who were
in the cave had narrow escapes, many
being bruised and cut by the falling
rock.
The dead and injured were men,
bers of a party Of tourists completing
n tour of the cave. With a guide
leading, the party was in the middle
Of one Of the four bridges in the cave
when the slide came, its noise deaf
ened by the roar Of the cataract. The
guide was not touched.
10 recover the bodies it was neces-
sary TO- take a rowboat from the Maid
Of the Mist steamer, which had been
run up as near as possible to the falls
and cave. 1t was q hazardous venture
but the rowboat crew finally brought
the bodies out of the pool and re.
gained the steamer. ,
The accident is the first Of the kind
in the cave since the first stairway
was built in 1883. There have been
slides before but only in the winter
or early spring.
Those killed were A. Hartman of
Brooklyn, his wife, Louise Hartman,
and Clara NJ. Faust, Pittsburgh.

the rich yield Of the great northwest
ern wheat fields" 4
That the crops in Canada, both east
and west, are meeting the expectations
Of the farmers Is q satisfying fact,
which gives a positive assurance OF q
yield that will mea millions Of dol
lars to the wealth Of the country.
There will probably be as much as two
hundred million bushels Of wheat to
export, giving an added wealth to the
country of nearly half q billion dol
lars. In all parts the crop yield
promises to be abundant, and with
favorable weather from now on there
may be expected a harvest that will
equal If not surpass that Of 1915. 1t
will doubtless be pleasing to the many
readers of this paper to know that
the friends they have developing their
farms in this region Of big crops and
good prices will participate in this
wealth, and what will be more pleas
ing, is the knowledge Of the fact that
the wealth in which they will partici-
pate comes from big prices for q
product produced from land purchased
at a cheap price.
Western Canada has never known
a failure in crops. There are districts
where partial failures have been, but
consideration SHOULD be given to the
fact that the country, that portion Of
it in which the present grain growing
lies, is from seven to eight hundred
miles in length by half that distance

fact that this is only one item in the

Daily Service Is Inaugurated
Between New York and
San francisco.
TRIP IN 6 Q HOURS
Postoffice Department Gives Striking
Details of 5000 Mile Mail Route
in Prospectus Of New
Service.

Washington.-Air mail service be-
tween New York and San Francisco
was inaugurated by the postoffice de-
partment on Wednesday, September 8,
the first plane leaving each terminus
at $50 a. m. local time that day.
Complete plans and schedules for
the coast to coast service, previously
announced by the department, show
that the mail planes from New York
to San Francisco are expected to
make the trip in 56h hours, elapsed
time, and the San Francisco to New
York planes in 6Oh hours elapsed time.
Mail sent by train from New York to
San Francisco reaches the latter city
in about 100 hours and San Francisco
mail arrives by train in New York in
about SO hours. Metal monoplanes
with a cruising radius of 10 hours at
so miles. an hour will be operated
between New York and Omaha, with
a single stop for casing at Chicago.
DeHaviland-4 planes with four hours
fuel and oil at 80 miles an hour will
be used between Omaha and San
Francisco. Stations between the two
terminini will be Cleveland, Chicago,
Iowa City. Omaha and North Platte,
Neb., Cheyenne and Rock Springs,
Wyo.; Salt Lake City, and Elko and
Reno, New.
Pointing out that Inauguration of
the new service will extend the air
mail service over 1,463 miles Of new
territory, the %postoffice department in
its announcement added:
"With the establishment Of the
transcontinental air mail there will be
at the service of the United States
military forces what is probably the
greatest system of regularly main
tanned landing fields and facilities in
the world, a system that will enable
the movement Of air fleets from ocean
to ocean with large landing fields and
fueling and repair facilities approx
mately every 200 miles.
1.-THE transcontinental daily air mail
will be the most difficult flying project
yet undertaken. Not only has it re-
quired the working out Of details for
a daily operation Of a route nearly
5000 miles long, but the actual flying
will be under the most trying condi-
tons. At Cheyenne, Salt Lake City
and Reno the daily flying with a full
load of mail will have to be at alti-
tudes ranging from $4,000 to $4,000
feet above sea level and owe high
wind swept p%lateaus with powerful
headwinds to cut down the speed of
the planes. Intense cold weather will
be encountered, as well as snow, and
against these contingencies all adj
vance preparations possible have been
made. Powerful radio stations for
communications with the planes in
the mountain sections have been in
stalled ut Reno, Salt Lake City, Chey-
enne and Omaha"
