BERLIN DREAMS 0F
 VAST AIR TRAVEL
Transatlantic Flights by Cor geous Floating Palaces Yisioned

Berlon, Sept. 22.-Will the air over the Atlantic shortly be roaring with . giant floating palaces capable of mak- ing the trans oceanic flight in 60 hours?
 Some enthusiastswho claim definite plans are under consideration for the monster trans Atlantic air liners, are described in other quarters as mere pipe dreamers" dealing in just or dinary castles iN the air"
 The proposed ships would each have gas capacity of 10000 to 15O,000 cubic meters. They would tear through the clouds at the rate of 140 miles an hour, unless there was no urgent demand for speed, in which case they would slow down to 100 miles. Such vessel would be 275 meters long, 35 meters wide at it's greatest diameter, and S9 meters high from the top of the gas bag to the bottom of the body. The power 500 horsepower each.
 It's carrying capacity would be 9o,- 900 Kilograms, of which 10000 would be required for fuel. food, etcetera. the remainder being for mails and passengers. The estimated passeng- CT accommodations would allow. for 100 fares in addition to crew of so. The mammoth airships would be equipped with all possible comforts and conveniences, resembling in com fort the great ocean steamships now in service.
 German gossip on the aerial possi- bilities of the near future does not rest. however, with the channels over the Atlantic. A prophecy is made that many years will not pass before the United States will have inaugur- ated service between her mainland and the islands she holds In the Far East.

 Centuries of the negro slave trade and of slavery as an institution have created, and are often deemed to jus tify, the deep seated prejudice against negroes" declares the report. They placed a stamp upon the relations of the two races which it will require many years to erase. The memory of these relations has profoundly af- fected and still affects the industrial, commercial and social life of the southern states.
 The negro race must develop, as all races have developed, from lower to higher planes of living; and must base its progress upon industry, ef- f1ciency and moral character. Train ing along these lines and general op- portunities for education are the fundamental needs. As the problem is national in its scope and gravity, the solution must be national.
 Both races need to understand that their rights and duties arS mu- tual and equal. and that their inter ests in the common good are identi- cal that relations of amity are the only protection against race clashes; that these relations cannot be forced, but will come naturally as the lead CTS of each race develop within their own ranks a realization of the gravity of this problem and vital interest in it's solution"

DON'T DELAY FURTHER
IN CULLING FLOCKS

October 1 ends the culling season
and if the poultry raisers have not
culled their flOcks, selecting the best
layers and discardins the poor ones
which are eating up the profits, they
are urged to do 50 at once by the pOul,
try extension specialists at the Louis,
lana State University, as to do this
culling intelligently one must know
how, they say. Those persons lacking
experience along this line should re.
ceive assistance from their local farm
or home demonstration agent, who is
ready and willing to assist any one in
this undertaking.
During this year the extension poul
try department and local dem0nstra
ton agents have assisted poultry rails

$4,000 worth of culled poultry in if

LAKESIDE NO. | PRODUCING
HIGH GRADE KEROSENE

1t became known short time age
that Lakeside Well No. I. located
about s miles west Of RinggOld. on
Lake BiSteneau, which early last year
came in as a 40,OOO0OO feet gas we'll.
is now producing pure filtered kero
sene at the rate of from - to 60 gal
Ions daily.
Negroes living in the vicinity Of the
we'll, discovered the presence of oil
two or three months ago. and have
been going there to get their supply
since that time and it was only re
Gently that it became known at Ring
gold that a high grade of kerosene
was being produced in Lakeside No.
1.
After standing "a hours or more. by
opening the gate valve anywhere from
10 to 50 and 40 gallons of pure filter.
ed kerosene can be obtained. After
the kerosene quits flowing the well be-
gins blowing gas. Much interest is
being attracted to the we'll because
of this peculiar development. Lake
side No. , located nearby was drilled
through the gas sand into salt water
and abandoned. No. 3 located south
of No. and No. was never com
pletcd due to the collapse of G-inch
casing. No. 4 is being drilled on the
Bossier side of Lake Bisteneau at this
time. Location has been made for No.
5, one mile south of No. ; in Blen-
vile parish, and will be drilled as
soon as No. is completed. Wells
Nos. |, . and 3 are in 1860, and the
others in that vicinity.
That a pool of crude oil is not far
distant from No. | is generally accept.
cepted by those who have Investigate
ed the peculiar action of this well,
and doubtless other tests will be made
on the strength Of this belief.
