KILL THE RAT, THE
SPREADER OF PLAGUE

Calling attention to the discovery
of bubonic plague in several American
and Mexican gulf ports, and renewing
his warning regarding the introduce
ton of plague from Mediterranean
ports which are known to be infected,
Surgeon General Hugh S. Cumming
today urged communities throughout
the country, and especially along the
coast, to inaugurate INSTRUMENTATION
and rat-proofing campaigns.
"Bubonic plague is primarily a dis
east of rodents, especially rats" said
General Cumming, "and the disease
can be controlled effectively by meas
ures directed against the rat. The ex-
termination of rats is all the more to
be desired because of the tremendous
economic damage they cause"
According to conservative estimates
by the U. S. public health service on
the basis of numerous surveys, there
is at least n rat for every person in
the United States. This estimate CO.
incides with that for Great Britain and
Ireland, and with authoritative figures
for Denmark, France and Germany.
The annual upkeep per rodent was
computed by the same authorities as
$3.50 in Great Britain, $1.20 in Den
mark, and $1.00 in France. The dep
rotations Of the rats in the United
States will very probably exceed the
estimate for Great Britain. One-half
a cent a day is considered conservative
but even on this computation, it costs
the United States $3.50, 900 900 a year
to support it's rat population. This
does not include mice.
"The U. S. public health service is
prepared to detail trained experts to
assist communities in organizing the
fight against rats" said General
Cumming. "Many of our officers have
had extensive practical experience in
this work, and know how to make it
really effective. In the seaport cities

the company now operating it will ex-
tend it 80 miles farther and over the
extremely mountainous country to the
city Of Manizales, and it will then be
the longest in the world.
Little aerial vagones (cars) are at
tached to the cable at certain inter-
walls and each of them carries three
cargoes, or to make a specific illustra-
ton, six bags of coffee. Two bags of
merchandise constitute a cargo, as
these bags are suspended from each
side of the pack mules that bring them
up the narrow mountain trails to this
galloway shipping terminal. The US
ual weight of each bag is about 1875
lbs, thus making a total load Of 750
lbs. carried by a single aerial wagon.
Passengers are not usually carried,
though some adventurous ones have
placed bamboo poles between two wag-
ons, strapped their SADDLES on the
poles, and have ridden to their desti-
nation. However, they had to be pos
tive that the galloway would run

whether or not plague infection is

GREAT SALT LAKE
WASTE
MAKES GOOD ROADS

There has just been completed in
Salt Lake county, Utah, a 14-mile
stretch of speedway, intended as a
Hoop Of the Lincoln highway, which
gives that commonwealth a roadway
constructed almost entirely of sup
posedly waste material. Instead of as
phalt or cement, resort was made to
the "shale" of Great Salt Lake. This
so-called shale is in reality the de-
composed matter thrown up by the
waters of Americas Dead Sea. Mil
lions Of tons line the shores of the
great inland salt lake. The shale was
found to be soft and pliable when ia
ken from the shore beds. Smoothed
out and exposed to the suns rays, it
quickly hardened and became as firm
as cement.
This is perhaps n of the cheapest
stretches of speedway ever construct
ed, since the "cement" was to be had
for the trouble of digging it out and
carting it to desired points on the Ia
miles of roadway. Nearly $4,000 tons
Of the shale have been used in sur
facing the speedway to a depth of 8
inches. All this enormous quantity
of covering matter was secured at no
cost whatever beyond that required
to get it on the ground. Preliminary
work consisted of leveling the earth
and preparing it for the coating.
The so-called shale, which, as men,
toned above, is very pliable when ia
ken from the shore beds, was dumped
at convenient points on the roadway,
then spread over the smooth earth
course and subjected to rolling pro-
cesses, subsequent layers being added
when the previously laid shale had
dried out. The shale, when spread,
was of the consistency of soft clay.
1t hardens very rapidly and ssumes
a cementlike quality.-Popular Me-
chanics.

WHAT THE WIND LOOKS LIKE.
By en-. Fales.

by Il. IN. Il dlcS,
In the popular mind the distinctive
characteristic of air is it invisibility
and intangibility. We can hear the
sounds it carries, we can feei it's force
pushing against US, We can sense the
degree of it's cooling effect; but far
Their than that we are unfamiliar with
its actions.
1t is only recently that mankind has
had any inclination to concern him
self with the internal actions of the
wind.
Our knowledge is derived from
crude methods of investigation. Thus,
the meteorologist, desiring to know
the speed and direction of atmospheric
air currants, sets loose a small bal
loon and watches its progress, as it
travels with the air. He also arranges
weather vanes, thermometers, ETC.,
depend upon the motion of the air for
their action; and by their mea he
is able to get rough estimates of the
local direction and speed of the wind.
With the advent of aeronautics it has
become highly important that we in
terpret correctly all the peculiarities
of air flow, because it is upon the mo-
ton of air that mechanical flight de-
ponds.
Quite recently, a~eronautical engin-
GERS in the wal department have de-
veloped a remarkable new method for
studying the behavior of air. Not con-
tent with the indirect studies above
mentioned, they succeeded in actually
making the air visible.
A method, discovered at McCook av-
iation field, Dayton, Ohio, u~tilizes a
200-hp. wind tunnel. This tunnel, in
addition to its ability to render air
visible, is further novel in that it pro-
vides a speed of air flow greater than
any yet used for such purposes, name
ly: 500 miles per hour; and it affords
this speed at an efficiency higher than
usual heretofore.
A word Of description concerning
this wind tunnel is pertinent. 1t con-
sists of a tube 10 feet long provided
with a 200-hp. power fan at one end
which sucks air through the tube to
the other end. The tube is large at
both ends and narrow in between; in
fact, it is shaped like a Ventura tube
for the purpose of securing high eff
ficiency of flow. The fan is built
on airplane-propellor principles, but
at the same time acts like a conven-
tional commercial fan. 1t is five feet
in diameter, with "a blades. The air
stream has a diameter of IA inches.
A small model airplane wing is pla-
ced in this 14-inch blast so that the
air blowing against it will create GER
tain forces. In order that the model
shall not be blown downstream, it
is supported on a strong rod which
is connected on the outside with a del
icate measuring balance, so that the
lifting force and the resistance due
to the wind can be accurately measur-
ed.
The general appearance of the air
flow, which may be considered typical
of the air flow, is as follows: A cross
section at the throat shows a seething
mass of fog specters, denser at the
walls than at the center, though &C.
casionally the entire disk fills up with
fog to the point of opaqueness. The
specters have, in the cross-sectional
plane, a gentle movement like the
flame of an alcohol stove, showing
the constant readjustment of equilib-
rum.
