KANSAS CITY, April 16 Especially -
The Missouri wheat crop is estimated
today at 81 per cent, as against SIS
per cent a this time year ago
Present indications point to a pro
duction of 3S.70O.O00 bushels. This
shows conclusively that the farmers
have not cut down their acreage and
that they expect a reasonable profit
from their fields.

BRAKE CHECKS HELP
MAKE STREETS SAFE
Inspections by PoIicie Are Excel
lent for Safety.

The vigorous manner in which po-
lice departments all over the country
are checking up automobile brakes is
good evidence Of the important part
that brakes play in the nations safety.
In many large cities and in hundreds
of smaller ones, motorists are being
stopped on the streets and put through
driving tests. If the test develops that
the brakes do not grip evenly or quick
ly, the officer orders the driver to have
them adjusted. If they function salts
factorily, the driver is given wind.

condition of his brakes and thus saw
ing him the annoyance Of another halt
and another inspection.
'These inspections are an excellent
thing" said an automobile expert,
"and should be made regularly and
universally. The average man hates
to drive with poor brakes, but the
average man is also very busy. How
ever, the man who stops to consider
what faulty brakes might result in,
will realize that the necessary few
minutes in the service station are well
spent. Good brakes protect lives. And
it is certainly the duty of every mo-
torist to make driving as safe as pos
sible."

consider this device complicated and

low the aerial, but this is by no means
essential as it may be run in the op-

Toot, Listen, loot Again.

1t is advisable before passing
an intersection of streets, says
Motor Life, to signal, listen for
a reply and then signal again.
Some such plan - whichever
seems feasible to ihe particular
driver-should be instrumental
in lessening the number of acci-
dents that are the direct result
Of wrong horning.
The driver, technically known
as the "road hog" is less likely
to be the victim of crossing
accident of this sort because the
other fellow is bound to hear
him coming. But the excessive
horner is general nuisance
everywhere. He annoys the pa
irons of the theater, the church
congregation, the patients in the
hospital and a thousand and one
persons who are perfectly well
aware that he has horn. They
want him to use it; not abuse 1t
at their discomfort. He could
be just as safe at crossings
and could hog the right of way
just as successfully-by trying
the "short toot, listen and toot
again" method.

X. COUNTERPOIsE

Before leaving the subject of aerials
1t may be well to call attention to the
device known as counterpoise and
which, for sending, is far superior to
using a ground, while with small sets
the advantages gained by a counter
poise in receiving do not pay for the
trouble Of installing the device. This
is because the counterpoise, while add
ing to the sharpness of tuning with
receiving set and, therefore, aiding
in cutting out Interference, will also
cut down the strength Of the sounds
received. Therefore, with crystal
set where amplifcation Is not pos
sible, the device is practically value
less, whereas, with vacuum tube set
with two or more steps Of amplifica-
ton, the counterpoise will prove n

not only on account of 1t being an
obstruction, but because 1t may be
injured by people or animals or may
be buried under snow In winter, 1t is
better to raise 1t about six feet, or
just high enough so people may pass
beneath 1t. Stout posts with guy wires
are the best supports, whereas, If the
device is placed on the roof, the
supports may be chlmneys, walls, etc.
If placed on roof beneath an aerial
leave all the space possible between
the two, either by keeping the counter
poise low or raising the aerial. Where
this is not convenient, the counter
poise may be run in another direction
instead Of being placed below the
aerial wires.

The pro- grams consisted of several musical numbers and we were favored with a very interesting talk on Nome and the Seward Peninsula. We were also told that the Alaskan-Siberlan Navigation Company put the good ship Buford on the Nome run with out any of the cash guarantees and demurrage charges that the other steamship companies demanded when we wanted to get some better service to Nome and the Seward Peninsula.

the company which would be car ried out to the letter. No tips were necessary to get good service.
 Captain Lane offered to return the fare money to any one reporting any attempts to graft-no money was returned.
 The boat has a wonderful deck space which enables passengers to promenade to their hearts content. There is a promendate around the entire ship. with no obstructions. There are also four other open decks on which passengers may lounge or walk.
 On the forward deck there is steel house 12x, feet, steam heat .pd ., equipped with
 --..vs and benches for steer age passengers to use as a smoking and card room.
 There are many baths aboard for both steerage and other passengers. A shower is reserved for the steer age while for others tubs and showers are available. Every one aboard is given to understand that, baths are free and nay be used aa often as required, and at any time, day or night. Regarding the water supply aboard. the boat has not only the ordinary evaporating plant, but also special stills. installed by the government. giving a supply Of fresh water equal to any. The available daily capacity of water is 75 tons, in the steerage quarters are found drinking fountains supply fresh, ice cold water.
 Cold storage facilities are unus- ually large and complete 26S tons sharp freezing space is aboard. besides 75 tons space in chilling rooms. A bake shop. equipped to bake 400 loaves of bread at one time. gives the passengers fresh bread and pastry day and night.
 Steerage quarters are sufficiently high to enable all port holes to be opened at all times.
 As a means held in reserve for unusual conditions the boat is equip ped with a modern ventilation sys- tenn, equipped with fans and blow CTS, run by electricity.
 In all five different electric sys- tems are operated. each driven by large motors.
 Before leaving Frisco on her Northern trip the Buford was fum- igated with Cyanide and every bit of vermin or animal life destroyed. Captain Lane offers a bounty for any form of bug found on his ship.
 The last sailing south of the sea- son is scheduled for October 25-2S, but this does not mean that the schedule is arbitrary. Captain Lane has spent many years in this north ern country and realizes that an early or arbitrary sailing often en- tails a hardship on the miners and dredge men and others who are un- able to leave the upper country in time to make an early sailing with out sacrificing their business inter- ests. Knowing the needs of this community as well as he does and having complete charge of his ship. he states that he will stay just as late in this port as the people desire. He will take the chance of getting out if they will.
 Many passengers were interview ed and in no instance was any thing but the highest commendation given to the ship. her captain and her crew. every man. woman and child aboard is an enthusiastic booster for the new steamship company.
 Numerous passengers have made the Nome run for many years and this is the first time that they rode on a ship without becoming sea sick, as evidence on former trips they would spend days in their

rooms. scarcely touching food, while on this trip they never missed meal. As the boat has no roll, even iE heavy seas former travellers along the Boring Sea lanes were given a treat that they well appreciate. Last in the numerous unusual fea- lures of this new boat to Nome is that wonder of the times-the Radio.
 The Radio system aboard is 1st class in every detail. Almost con stantly the operator was in touch with Frisco and other coast points. Frequently the ship talked with other ships 4.O0O miles distant. Radio concerts were enjoyed in the radio room, there being an ampli- fer for the benefit of the passeng- CTS. While in Boring Sea the ship listened to radio concert being broadcasted from Los Angeles.
 MT. Brock, chief Radio operator is one of the best in the business and is on the boat for the purpose of carrying on experiments for his Radio Company. Repeatedly the ship sent to Port Williams Sound and to Cross Sound for radio bear ings and received answers that checked absolutely with the boats findings. This system is of invalu- able assistance to mariners who have lost their course in a fog or darkness, and is being extended along the Pacific coast. The Allan tic coast has adopted the system and proved 1t invaluable.
 When the Buford arrived in Nome and the passengers were aboard the barges to come ashore they cheered the Buford, Captain Lane and his crew, a demonstration that has no precedent in. the history of Nome navigation.

HINDU ROPE
TRICK
No One Found Who Ever Saw
It. Declares Psychic,
Investigator.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2S.-The famous
Indian rope trick, which has puzzled
psychic investigators for many
years, is fiction and a myth, ac-
cording to Hereward Darlington, in
vestigator for the American PSYCHE
cal Research Society, in a lecture on
psychic phenomena in Genealogy
Hall here.
Nobody has ever actually seen
the trick" he said There have
been many who have seen persons
who have seen IT. perhaps, but the
person has never been found who has
seen it first-hand.
The thing has never actually hap
pened except in the imagination Of
some people.
He admitted that a crude attempt
at the rope trick had been made by
magicians who used a bamboo rod
that looked like q rope.
The fire-walking trick, in which
the Yogi priests of India and other
mystics of the Orient are said to
actually walk barefoot on hot Goals
