GERMAN FLTERS
WILL USE new
TYPE COMP ASS

BERLIN, July % GR-A new pneu-
matte telecompass, which is said to
enable an airnan to keep his course
mechanically, will be used for the
first time in the history of trans
Atlantic aviation by the three German
pilots who are planning to attempt
flights to America.
Profiting by the mishaps which
occurred to the compasses used by
the American trans-ocean fliers,
Clarence Chamberlain and Commander
Richard Byrd, the German aviators
will not employ the induction COM
passes.
The pneumatic compasses have
been constructed by the Askania
works of Friedenau, suburb OF
Berlin They will be installed lin
the Caspar biplane, in which Otto
Koennecke and Count Solms-Laubach
hope to reach the United States, and
in the two Junkers 2-33 monoplanes
which, it was indicated today, will
be piloted by Johann Risticz and
Frederick Loose.
The equipment consists of three
parts-the compass itself, which gives
the direction; the course indicator
and the course setter. The compass
proper remains out of sight of the
pilot. It is fitted in the stern Of
the cockpit, where the effect Of mag
netic influences is at the minimum
Compensation, therefore, becomes un-
necessary.
The course indicator, which has nc
magnetic sensitiveness, is fixed irl
front of the pilot, thereby facilitating
navigation considerably The course
setting dial is installed near the pilots
seat and is plainly visible.

FRANCE CHANGES RULES
In LEGION OF HONOR

PARIS. H9-There will be no more
sudden promotions in the French Le-
gion of Honor. All those receiving the
coveted red ribbon must start here
after as chevalier, the lowest grade.
The new regulations are embodied in
a bill passed by both senate and
chamber of deputies.
Under the new regulations 10 years
must elapse between appointment as
chevalier and achievement of the
grand cross, the highest honor the
Legion holds. The grade of officer
cannot be attained before eight years
as a chevalier. Only those who have
been officers for five years can be
made commanders. Grand officers
must have been commanders for three
years. TO be eligible for the grand
cross three years as a grand officer
will be necessary.

SEEK RECOVERY
OF $2,0O0,O0O IN
USURY CHARGES

LOS ANGELES, Su.y rs Ma-Re-
ceivers for the Julian Petroleum cor
poration tonight declared they may
file a suit for at least $2,0Oo,Oo0 and
perhaps as much as $5O00O00 against
one of the Los Angeles business
men indicted in connection with the
Julian financial fiasco.
The man involved in the case, ac-
cording to testimony before the
grand jury, received a total of ST.
100000 in interest and bonuses i'll
Julian deals. The receivers said they
would give the man every oppor-
tunity to make full restitution and
that if such restitution was not
made before the expiration of the
statute of limitations in his case, the
fornia law provides for the restitu-
ton of triple the amount of inter-
est charged in civil usury suits.
The receivers would not state the
exact amount to be involved in the
suit, other than it would be more
than $2,000000.
The financier is accused of hav7
ing collected the largest sum paid to
any individual on pool loans and to
have held the largest amount of
Julian stock before the. collapse of
the company, under its $100,000,00G
loans and huge over-issue of stock.
Similar suits for approximately
$300,000 may be filed against two
other financiers, both of whom are
under indictment, while one also has
been named in an usury complaint
filed by the city prosecutor.

tireless tourists who invade the Paris
public market at dawn to breakfast on

RNN o.

WASHINGTON = The servants of
the people, functioning in Washing
ton and elsewhere as parts of the
federal government, assume far more
dignity than the ordinary servant,
and it is very hard to find any hu-
mility among them.
Their success in persuading the
multitude to take them seriously, as
no doubt they should be taken, is
probably responsible for the failure
of tn eordinary citizen to attach to
them the sort of nicknames with
which he tags others prominent in
the public eye.
Certainly the hard-working officials
down here are entitled to at least as
much affection as the lady murder
esses of Chicago, among whom there
has been a long procession of "wolf
women "tiger women" "hyena
women, and SO on. New York has
never been slow to nickname its
Rhinelanders and it's Brownings and
the spirit of the entire country was
demonstrated when it made Lind
bergh its own Lindy." Washington
alone has Jagged behind in this great
popular sport
AS a matter of fact, the great men
of the land as found in high office,
are not such awesome creatures as
to be robbed of this mark of popular
esteem. Probably every one of them
realizes the vote-getting value of a
good nickname, but how is he to
nickname himself?

Furnished by the
DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE

Domestic rabbits need to be fed
twice daily. The quantity of grain re-
quired depends on their age and con-
dition and also on the quantity of
hay and green feeds they receive. The
doe requires more grain while suck
ling young than between breeding pc
riods.
Trees grown close enough together
in the farm woods so that their tops
are in contact produce high-grade
saw logs. The resulting shade dis
ccurages excessive limb growth along
the trunks, which makes knotty lum-
ber and encourages height growth at
the tops
Grain should be fed to high-pro-
ducing COWS under all pasture condi-
tions. When pastures become short,
soiling crops, silage or legume hay
should be fed throughout the sum-
mer. Browse ranges usually are best
adapted to use by cattle during spring
and fall rather than for the full sea-
son from spring to fall
Were the entire potato acreage of
this country planted with first-class
seed stock the total production would
be increased from 10 to 25 per cent.
Good seed potatoes may be defined as
being nearly, if not completely, free
from the observable virus dis
eases, such as mosaic, leaf-roll, spin
die tuber and streak, and from such
observable diseases as rhizoctonia,
common scab and late blight. They
should also be reasonably uniform in
size, shape and color, true to varietal
name, apd firm and sound, with the
first sprouts just showing.
The legume hays, such as alfalfa,
the clovers, soy BEANS cowpeas' and
vetch, are the best hays for dairy
cows They are well liked and con-
tain larger amounts of protein and
calcium than the non-legume hays
! Their value is increased if they are
cut and cured without getting wet.
More than 80 per cent of the pro-
gressive seedmen, United States seed
marketing specialists say, are keeping
complete stock records to meet the
! American farmers demand for better
information on the origin of the seed
he buys.
"Seed bearing certified origin tag"
specialists suggest, doubtless would
command a premium sufficient to
cover possible additional expenses in
the keeping of records and the cost
of inspection or supervision"
