involved. To this end, factory in
spectors are being employed and
trained as rapidly as possible for
the purpose of inspecting and Ii
censing "new production airplanes
at the time they leave the factory.
This, it is pointed out, will aid the
industry by facilitating the issu-
ance of licenses in the first in
stance, although these planes will
still require periodical reinspection
by the field personnel of the de-
partment.
Applications for pilots and me-
chanic's licenses showed striking in
crease during the past fiscal year,
due in large measure to the pub
licity occurred during that period.
By June 80 last applications were
on file for over 5000 pilots and
5000 mechanics which was about
three times the number on file on
the corresponding date the previous
year. On June 80 over 4,7O0 ap-
plications had been received for Ii
censing airplanes as compared with
LOO at the end of the 1927 fiscal
period. Up to June 80 last, IL
censes had been issued for approx
imately 5000 pilots, 5000 me-
hanics and 1000 airplanes. In ad
dition, 1000 applications for stu
dents permits have been filed.
In order to pass on qualifications
of these applicants, the Bureau
maintains 40 inspectors in the field.

The third and last course of the
winter school in dairy manufac-
lures is for advanced creamery
operators and will be held at Uni
versity Farm, February FL to
March 2. This course is planned
for the man who is personally in
charge of creamery operations. If
an applicant has had some exper-
fence in operating a creamery, or
has attended the course for be-
ginners or had similar trainings
elsewhere he is eligible to register
for this work.
Buttermaking experts will assist
the dairy products faculty of the
university in giving instruction
and conducting demonstrations. F.

course are already being received
at University Farm.

routes and that smaller feeder lines
will serve many outlying cities.
Communication to aircraft in
flights along the transcontinental
route, the report states, will be
available within short time. Rad
10 equipment is under construction
for replacing obsolete apparatus
now in use. The new apparatus
will provide radio-telephone or rad
10 telegraph communications as
may be required on frequencies
between 100 and 500 kilocycles.
Considerable research and test
ing work was conducted by the
Bureau of Standards for the Aero
nautics Branch during the period
under review. These Investigations
embraced radio aids to navigation,
lighting Of airways, sound proof
ing of airplane cabins, air.
plane control tests, and tests of
commercial aircraft engines.
Approximately 600 alrplanes are
being built in American factories
each month which have to be in
spected as to their airworthiness.
It is obvious, Major Young states,
that a very efficient organization
of the inspection section is essen
tial in order to carry out the work
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1928-12-20

AS the work of these inspectors is
almost entirely at airports, official
airplanes can be utilized with great
saving of time and a corresponding
increase of efficiency. Unfor-
tunately, the report shows there
are but Ia planes of modern de-
sign available for their use. Funds
are available for the purchase of
five more but even with this addi-
tional number Of airplanes the to-
tai will be about one-third of the
number essential to the most effic-
lent performance of inspection du-
ties. ..... ... ..
Referring to the enforcement of
regulations the report shows that
during the past fiscal year there
was 224 violations, resulting in
IS assessments of the civil penalty,
121 reprimands, 20 suspensions, 2
revocations, and 5 denials of IL
censes. The violations consisted of
acrobatics over prohibited areas,
flying low over congested areas, fly
ing licensed aircraft with no iden-
LITIGATION numbers displayed and
flying without navigation lights.
Among the interesting develop
ments of the past fiscal year cited
by Mayor Young in his report was
the creation of an accident board
within his organization to investi-
gate all civil aircraft accidents
with view to determining and elimi-
mating their causes. This board is
composed of two experienced pi-
lots, a flight surgeon, a lawyer
versed in air law and an aeronaut-
ical engineer. A careful analysis
of accidents is made and a per-
centage valuation assigned to con-
tributory causes. This method, it
is declared, will provide statistics to
show the exact causes of accidents
and point the way to their elimina-
ton. 1t will also provide val
liable index to those portions of the
air commerce regulations regarding
both PERSONAL and material that
may be unnecessarily severe, or
where higher safety standard are
requisite and more exacting and
specific regulations must be i'm
posed.

Upstate Farmer Wins
Lamb Production Race

Lamb Production Race
Minnesota's first lamb production
contest, modelled after the order of
the carload baby beef and the pork
production contests, was won by
K. o. Johnson, of Frontier, Koo-
chiching county, reports w. E.
Morris, who was in charge of the
project for the agricultural ex-
tension service of the university.
Thirteen of the original entrymen
completed the. project and will
share in the award money appro-
priated for the purpose by the Min
nesota Livestock Breeders associa-
ton. So far as known the con-
test is the first of the kind in this
country. -.
Mr.. Johnson placed first in the
class for owners of rs to SO ewes.
From 35 ewes he raised so lambs
and in the 1875 days of the contest
brought them forward to a total
weight of 4,110 pounds, or an av-
erage of 1922 pounds per head and
an average of liza pounds of
lamb to the eve. Mr.. Johnson al
so won the championship for all
classes by producing and saving a
large percentage of his lambs and
putting more than average weight
upon them. He raised lamb crop
of 1928 per cent, or almost a lamb
and a half per eve.
frank Passi, of Pitt, Lake of the
Woods county, was second in the
LIS to SO class, producing 1886
pounds of lamb to each of 38 ewes.
The average weight of his lambs
was S7.5 pounds, or SD pounds
more than Johnson's, but because
he raised five fewer lambs al
though he had three more ewes
than Johnson, his total weight and
average were less.
Sever Trehus of Caledonia,
Houstin county, who started with
80 ewes and was first in the class
for so to 100 ewes, raised 1T
lambs weighing 1868 pounds, or
an average of. 65.5 pounds, or an
average production per eve Of 1914
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1928-12-20

pounds. C. E. Tatge, of Luverne,
Rock county, second in this class,
raised an average Of Ola pounds of
lamb to the 60 ewes with which he
started.
The primary purpose of the con-
test is to demonstrate the best
methods of breeding, feeding, and
managing. In a later item Mr..
Johnson's methods will be describ-
ed so that others may profit from
his experience. The project will
be made permanent feature of
livestock extension work.

OUTLOOK GOOD
FOR HUNTING
This SEASON
Plenty of Water Now
In Lakes, Ducks and
Geese Coming In;
Lid Is Off Nov. |

Indications point to the best duck
and goose hunting season the Valley
has had many years, sportsmen agree
due to the tact that lakes and poids
throughout this section of the coun-
try are filled with water which fell
during the heavy rains which drench-
ed the Lower Rio Grande Valley
throughout the first three weeks Of
September.
Omen season for ducks, geese and
doves opens here November /, and m
quiries are being received daily from
hunters in other parts of Texas and
in other states, according TO Hurt
Batsell, member of the Batsell-Wells
Sporting Goods company.
Under the 1928 game laws, ducks
are protected BY a 25-a-day limit and
geese BY a 4-a-day limit. Only 25
ducks and IL geese can be killed dur
ing a week.
The limit on doves is IS a day.
In discussing the best loads for
these birds, Batsell declared that
6, Z and Z IL chilled shot were the
best loaded for ducks and that Is
as and 6's were the most popular
geese loads. Doves take only a 2 IL
load.
A change has even been made in
the loading Of the shells, 80 grams Of
powder beng used in the heavy loads
instead of Is, as previously.
Batsell, in discussing the posi-
bilities of the coming season, warned
all hunters to secure the proper
hunting license before going out.
Residents Of the state are required
AZ. ~-.~ "a 60 lauU,Un fna nwaA nnn-FnEN~
dents must pay a fee Of SIS.
Ducks and geese are now pouring
into this country in great flockS and
with the water and food plentiful,
this section should be covered with
these birds throughout the season.
Not so with doves, Batsell said.
These birds have generally left
this section BY October | and ] be-
lieye that there will be very little
dove shooting" he said.
These birds start north during
October while white wings trek TO
more southern climes with the COM
ing Of the first cool snaps of Sep
TENDER.
Valley hunters are now trying TO
get a change in the game laws gov
erning the hunting Of both these
birds By having the season open here
August ! and close October i.
The white wing season now opens
| July j but a movement is on foot TO
have the opening moved up a month
| TO allow more time for the young TO
get out of the nest.
Batsell declared hat duck hunting
would be different during the coming
season than in former years.
AT least two boatmen at Point
Isabel and one At Boca Chica are
I planning TO construct blinds in the
Lagrna Madre and other coastal
waters in this section and take hunt
ing parties in their boats to these
blinds where all they will have to DO
is shoot the birds as they fly over.
These boatmen are even planning
Ia furnish their own decoys and will,
themselves. recover the birds after
they are shot.
IL is also believed that there will
be more decoy hunting this year than
in any past.
Brownsville hunters are already
dreaming Of the days bag and II Is
beginning to appear there will be
many a filled sack" during the COM
ing season.
