This would mean a more efficient
warning signal and at the same
time one that is more economical
of operation, for the reduction in
the size of the whistle would re-
suit in a great saving of steam.
Four tons of water and 1900
pounds of coal were required hour
ly to blow the whistle used by DR..
Foley in his experiments and by
timing trains on three different
railroads he found that locomo-
tive whistle is in operation from
one twenty-sixth to one thirty-ffth
of it's actual running time.
Estimating conservatively on the
basis of $1,000 locomotives in con-
tinuous use in the United States,
and using one forty--ffth as the
fraction of running time that a
trains warning signal is sounded,
the Indiana expert figured the costs
to the nations railways of operat-
ing their locomotive whistles at
$8,0O0,000 a year. This indicates
that when a person seeks to be-
little the value or Importance of a
thing by saying he wouldn't give
a hoot or toot for it, he doesn't
know what he's talking about, if
he is referring to locomotive boots
and toots.
In advocating higher standard
lied pitch for the whistle DR.. Foley
says that it's use for any other pun
pose than as a warning signal on
locomotives and traction cars
should be forbidden by law. Then
the public would soon learn to as
sociate that one sound with the
idea of danger at grade crossings,
and there would not be the con-
fusion that exists at present when
any old whistle may mean any old
thing.
However. veteran railway engin-
eers incline to the opinion that it
doesn't make much difference what
kind of warning is given by To-
comotive so long as there are so
many reckless automobile drivers
who will gamble with death to
save few seconds in beating a
train to crossing. The longest
and slowest freight train requires
only two minutes to pass a cross
ing and a passenger train but 10
seconds, so it is apparent that the
motoring fool wagers his life at
odds at which he would not risk
his money.
And it is to be borne in mind,
too, that when an engineer sounds
his whistle he is not trying to be
funny or to scare you. He is do
ing all he can to prevent an acci-
dent

Due to Ohio Accident

Some months ago there was a
most distressing grade crossing ac-
cident at Van Vert, Ohio, in which
III school children were killed when
d train running through heavy fog
struck a school hack. This disast-
The Winslow mail., 1925-10-16

er occurred in spite of the fact
that all indicated precautions had
been taken by the engineer and by
the driver of the hack. The loco
motives headlight was turned on,
and both whistle and bell were
sounded, and the hack driver had
not only brought his vehicle to a
stop at the crossing, but he got
out and walked on the tracks to
listen before deciding that it was
safe to proceed. He drove directly
into the path of the speeding train,
with the result that lives of almost
a score of happy youngsters were
blotted out.
DR.. Foley was engaged by the
railway company to test the warn
ing equipment of the locomotive,
which was dismantled and sent to
him at Bloomington, where it was
assembled and tried out under
varying conditions of weather. The
professor was not convinced that
atmospheric conditions alone were
responsible for the failure of the
warning signals to be heard at Van
Vert, and he set up a locomotive
whistle at the university power
house and tested the sound for dis
tances up to five miles.
This experiment soon proved so
Objectionable to students and town
people that DR.. Foley arranged
with local railroad to carry on
his Investigations with it's locomo-
tives under practical operating
conditions. An engine was taken
to turntable and a Raylight disk
for measuring the intensity of
sound was set up at a distance of
several hundred yards down the
track. Then, as the locomotive was
pivoted on the turntable, the whis-
tie was blown at various positions.
1t was found that twice as much
sound was thrown. to the sides as
to the front of The engine. This
was due to the steam dome, the
SmokeStack and other equipment
which are placed in front of the
whistle as locomotives are now
constructed and which reflect the
sound to right angles of the track,
where it is not only useless but
a nuisance. 1t was also demon
strated that the smoke and hot
gases escaping from the smoke
stack absorbed the sound waves to
an appreciable degree, and that the
air current created by speeding
engine blows jet of steam back
against the whistle and causes the
warning signal to shrek in man
ner that does not add to it's eff
cheney, but does make it more Of
an annoyance to the countryside.
Whistle Placed in Front
A whistle of the chimes variety
comotives was then placed in a
parabolic reflector on the front of
the engine near the headlight, with
the idea that the reflector would
direct the whistles sound where
it is supposed to go-straight down
the track-and greatly intensity it.
And it did. DR.. Foley found that
in. it's new position there was a
skiold increase of the whistles
sound intensity in front of the en-
gine, and marked decrease in the
''spill-over' to the sides.
The investigator also reports ad-
versity on the chimes whistle and
recommends the adoption by all
railways of whistle that is pitch
ed several octaves higher, the hu-
man ear being more sensitive to
the higher frequency of vibration.

Locomotive Whistle
Soundes Faint When
Train Is Moving Fast

When reckless motorists upon
approaching a grade crossing hear
a locomotive whistle that sounds
faint and far away, they should
not jump to the conclusion that
they have ample time in which to
beat the train to the intersection
of highway and track. If they do,
their foley is comparable only to
that of the individual who plays
with a gun and later explains the
fatal shooting with the familiar
plea that he didn't know it was
loaded
For, when the locomotive warn
ing seems least alarming it is most
to be respected. Recent expert
ments have shown that the air pres
sure caused by a speeding train
blows the souhder of the whistle
to the rear to such a degree that
when the train is travelling so miles
an hour the whistles efficiency is
reduced by one-third. Any one who
tries to beat a mile-a-minute eX-
press to a crossing is simply issu-
ing himself and passengers a one
way ticket to whatever hereafter
has been prepared for motoring
fools.
Also be it known that locomo-
tive whistle consumes four tons OF
water and 1900 pounds of coal for
every hour of continuous operation,
and the railroads of the country
spend something like $S,00O,0O0 a
year in maintaining this warning
system. 1t ought to be worth all
it costs.
However, it has been demonstrate
ed in the series of Investigations
conducted by DR.. A. l.. Foley, pro-
fessor of physics at the University
of Indiana, that certain changes IN
locomotive construction will make
the whistles more efficient as warn
ings and less of nuisance to all
the country adjacent to a railway
right of way. The right kind of a
whistle, placed in the right posi-
ton on an engine, will give the
maximum results in the way of a
notice to vacate to all who are on
the track ahead of the train, and it
will not spill over sideways and
annoy people who are in no wise
interested in learning of the train S
approach.

These results will be brought about
by superior design and a manufac-

which have only been revealed
since the light, compact car came
into existence two years ago.

On Growing Old

We all have to grow old, so do
your best not to worry about it. For
over three thousand years people
have been trying to discover the
secret Of perpetual youth, but they
have never discovered 1t, and they
never will. Old age Is a gracious
and happy state when we accept
1t naturally. 1t Is only when we
struggle that 1t becomes a tragedy.

STATE PROSPEROUS
BUSINESS in THIS
CONGRESS REPORTS

Opening of the fall season found
every one of ArizOna's major in
dustries in a sound economic stu
alton, with a highly favorable out
look for the rest of the year, &C
cording to the business review re-
leased by the Arizona Industrial
Congress.
The outlook is declared especial
ly bright for agriculture, while
continued improvement is reported
in the cattle industry as result of
buying activity. While slight sag
is reported in copper prices, the
basic situation in the red metal
field holds favorable and is declar-
ed well above the situation at the
same time last year. Prospects
are rated bright by authorities, ac-
cording to the review, for an early
upturn in copper prices. Building
and gains in clearing house reports
further reflect the highly satisfac-
tory economic situation of the state
according to the report.
The report points to government
forecasts of an Arizona cotton
crop aggregating $4,000 bales as
being one of the important items
rejecting the general condition
The forecast for September is a
gain of 5000 bales over that made
in August, and shows that growing
conditions are even more favorable
than in August, when the outlook
was very bright. Ginnings for the
1925 season up to October / are
placed at 1852 bales.
The winter lettuce outlook also
gives cause for optimism, it is de-
clared. In Maricopa county alone
there will be 5000 acres, double
that of last year. The increase is
due to the demand which could not
be supplied by the crop of last
year. Acreage in other winter veg
etables also has been increased
Excellent rains are particular
causes for optimism in the live
stock field, according to the re-
port. Rains have been general, and
as result, the range benefit has
been statewide. The improvement
in the markets keeps pace with
that of the ranges There is much
activity in contracting for fall ship
ments, and prices are on the up
grade from a good level. Ship
ments of cattle to out of state
points for the the first six months
of 1925 are placed at 10000 head, !
as compared with $1,000 head for
the corresponding period Of 1924
Of the copper situation, the re-
port says:
'Basically, the copper industry is
considered in a strong position,
with increased consumption and the
lowest surplus since the war. Ship
ments of North and South Ameri-
can producers during the first eight |
months of this year were 1 1,S96,652,-
OOG pounds, against a production of
1,778, 100000 pounds. Refined stocks
on hand September l were at a new
low figure of 54,686,000 pounds, a
decrease of 21,330Q00 pounds in
August.
"A large amount of development
work is under way in the state and
ore shipments are being made by
a number of small producers. 1t
is reported the Humbolt smelter
OF the Southwest Metals company
will be reopened September L."
Checking transactions from the
clearing houses of eight of the 10
larger cities in Arizona show in
creases over those of August. Nine
of the cities show substantial gains
over the corresponding period of
a year ago.

Such a chef is Haroutoun Gedojian.
sometime chef to the family royal Of
the khedive of Egypt, now the owner
of a bizarre gold coast restaurant in
Chicago. In his forty-three years as a
chef eXtraOrdinaire, HaroutOun's word
has been law in the cuisines of three
Egyptian princes and one princess,
the mother of the khedive. When
Lord Kitchener was sirdar of Egypt,
before the trouble in the Soudan,
Haroutoun cooked for him.
One of Kitchener's favorite dishes.
according to Haroutoun, was schisch-
kabb, a dish made from milk-fed baby
lamb. Prince Jamiel, another of his
masters, was particularly fond of
dried cream and honey, a preparation
which is one of Haroutoun's z~eaiously
guarded secrets. Prince Saad Pasha
was a keen admirer of a confection
Haroutoun makes entirely out Of
flour, butter and nuts.
In many of his admirable dishes,
Haroutoun uses evaporated milk,
which is simply fresh cows milk
sterilized in cans and with sixty per
cent of the water removed. Because
of a h~omogenizing process through
which evaporated milk is put, the
fat globules in the milk are broken
up into microscopic particles and dis
tributed throughout the milk, where

This breaking of the fat globules
gives a distinct buttery flavor to every

flavor which ordinary market milk
does not have. Haroutoun SAYS he
uses evaporated milk in preference to
milk in the preparation of all
sorts Of baked dishes. as well as in
cooking.
