item on corn found in the North
Dakota Magazine of 20 years ago, ex.
cepting indirect references and this
significant paragraph: "MOrc than
one hundred years ago, Lewis and
Clark would have been compelled to
return east, but for the corn they
obtained from the Indians on the
Missouri river. North Dakota has
always produced corn" With the
Mandans and other tribes of Indians,
in pygone days, corn was regarded as
Il main cultivated crop for human
food.

years marks the general development

flints crossed with dentcd corn are

Good Battle Plane
Is Always Dangerous

Dayton. o.. Oct. 30.-LR-A good
battle plane is necessarily an unsafe
plane, and it is the element of danger
that offers the pilot Of such aSship
his greatest protection in aerial bat
tie.
Officers Of the Army Air Corps and
officials Of McCook field here believe
that. The primary requisites in fight
ing planes are speed and maneuver-
ability. These little ships must be
able to twist and turn sharply and
suddenly, to follow the enemy's zig
tagging. or to avoid, his sudden rush
from behind a cloudbank. They must
be highly maneuverable.
This means that the controls must
be sensitive to an extreme degree.
When a pursuit pilot in battle eleva-
ties his ailerons or other control he
wants immediate response. It is this
sensitiveness and extreme .flexibility.
McCook field officers say. that makes
the pursuit plane unsafe and treach-
erous in the hands Of an inexperien-
ced pilot. More than one death may
be attributed to the fact that the
pilots experience had been almost
wholly on "slow" ships, and had not
developed the delicacy Of touch nec-
essary to plotting one Of the "finger
pressure" planes.
