Ohio Man Proposes
| Canal Due West From
duluth to Bismarck

"A canal project due west from
Duluth, tapping the Missouri river
at Bismarck, N. D., would be feas.
ible," says Charles E. Lukens Of
Marion, Ohio, in q recent commun.
ication :, the Akron, Ohio, Beacon
Journal.
Duluth is a great port for grain.
This canal would give this metropolis
a greater radius. It would open a
vast territory for future generations.
"This canal would be about ESQ
miles south of the watershed that
appears on both hemispheres, and
would serve rs . main channel, di-
verting water from the Mississippi
system to the st. Lawrence system,
where it is greatly needed.
"The great number Of small lakes
in the territory traversed would be
united by canals and channels rem.
dering service and pleasure to pres
ent and to future generations.
"The preservation Of animal and
vegetable life for future generations
should be the uppermost thought and
worthy Of ample appropriations by
the state and nation.
This canal would tap the Missouri
near where it once emptied into q
great sea. This arr Of the Atlantic

Mountain Roads Made Safe Against Landslides
BY NEA Service

BY NEA Service
Charleston, Y. Va, March o.
West Virginia road engineers have
originated an inexpensive system of
safeguarding road beds from wash
outs and landslides.
When West Virginia started =
huge road building program q few
years back the engineers faced a
serious problem. Railroads had been
built first through the states nu-
merous valleys and they chose the
best routes, using in many cases
all o fthe ground available between
the hills and the rivers.
This forced the road builders to
take to the mountainsides, which in
Cured great expense. Added to the
expense was the fear Of landslides.
Cut along the sides Of the mountains,
there was great danger Of the road
beds washing away in heavy rain
fall.
1t took a long time for the roads
to settle before they could be grav-
cled or paved after final grading.
The engineers hit upon the idea to
use abandoned gas well castings,
which are numerous in West Vir-
ginia, for the hillslides.
On steep cuts and wide curves
these pipes are drilled down into
solid rock at the lower edge Of the
road bed. Rock is then packed
around them and the work of grad
ing can go ahead with assurance that
the road bed will remain intact after
a heavy rain.
On wide curves and steep hill
sides, where there is more weight
to hold, huge pines are used. On
straightways and lower down on
less precipitous hills, smaller pipes,
placed foot apart, serve the pur-
pose.
Road building in the mountains
has been speeded up by this system
without adding much extra expense
to the already large sum required !
to construct a mile Of road in the
mountain state.
And the engineers vouch for the
greater safety.

Uncle Sam Ends Tests for Best Anti.Freeze
BY NEA Service

BY NEA Service
: Washington, March 22.-Of par
ticular interest to motorists who
wrivc in winter are the corosion
tests or radiator liquids recently
made by the U. S. Bureau Of Stand
ards.
arious types Of anti-freczing i.
guilds were heated and circulated
continuously. One by one, the Ii
guilds were run for 1000 hours
representing about $4,000 miles Of
severe service.
These tests were undertaken to
aid the motorist in selecting suit
able radiator liquid and in using
it effectively. Tho first require
ment Of an anti-freezing solution is
that it shall not injurc either the
engine or radiator by freezing at the
lowest temperature which may be
cncvountcred. To be satisfactory,
however, such a solution should
cause no damage to the cooling sys-
tenn through solvent action or cor
.rosion and should circulate freely at
the lowest operating temperature.
Meeting all requirements, ethyl
enc glycol was found to give more
protection against freezing than any
fthe other liquids tested. Like
glycerine, ethylene glycol does not
boil out at operating temperatures
and it does not corrode the system.
Unlike glycerine, ethylenc glycol Is
slightly thicker at low temperatures
than denatured alcohol of equal con-
ccntrations. ''Hence," states the bu,
reau Of Standards, Solutions OF
cthlyenc glycol appear to be SUPER
ior to denatured alcohol solutions
under all circumstances ad, at least
for very severe climates, to offer
some advantages over distilled
glycerine solutions
Before arriving at the conclusion
that ethylene glycol met the re-
ouiremcnts more fully than any 9TH
err anti-frcezing solution, many IL
uuids or reputed cold-weather pro-
lection were tested. Salt solutions
calcium chloride and magnesium
chloride-were found to cause ap-
preciable corrosions, acting on the
engine Jacket, on the solder in the
radiator and on aluminium, which
is sometimes used in manltolds,
pumps and heaters. :.
Another troublesome effect OF
calcium chloride solutions was ex-
pericnced when the solution came
in contact with spark plugs or ig-
milton wires. The salt deposited
when the water evaporates is very
difficult to remove and when it cools
itabsorbs water and becomes q good
electrical conductor, causing short
circuits, which are not easy to locate
as they disappear when the engine
is heated up.
Solutions Of sugar and of honey
were found Objectionable because
low percentage mixtures did not
have sufficiently low freezing points
and high percentage mixtures were
so thick that they circulated very
slowly, if at all. if circulation
stopped, charring of the honey in
contact with the hot engine was
likely. :.
Alcohols, glycerine and glycol
gave the most satisfactory results
for automobile radiator use, the
tests disclosed.

Dakota Ignite Beds
Declared Rich in Oil

Pierre, S. D., March 22.-About
50,00O,00O,O0O gallons of gasoline lie
buried in the Ignite coal fields of
the northwestern section of South
Dakota, according to research work
ers Of the geological department Of
the state university, who have made
Investigations there.
The fields Of North Dakota are
even more extensive than those of
this state, and the supply of motor
fuel could be assured from the two
states for many years in case oil
wells ran dry.
Besides the gasoline, by-products
would yield millions Of dollars more
in the development Of the Ignite de-
posts Of the two states, which have
barely been touched.
While many small mines are
working, they do not attempt to
supply other than limited local mar
kets, except in few instances. The
coal taken out is merely that which
can be easily obtained. Many farm
ers and ranchers have opened small
surface workings and take out what

neighbors.
The lignites Of the two states are
said to be especially well suited to
processing methods on account of
the case with which it can be pull
verified. and its high carbon con.
tent.
An oil development company
which has brought in many wells in
eastern Montana is crossing the line
into South Dakota. It leased 4
large amount of state school lands
in the northwest part Of the state
this week for purposes Of test de-
velopment. The company will make
its tests this summer, it says.
Tho state school lands depart
nlent has within the past few days
received application from a Kansas
development company which desires
an opportunity to test a section a
short distance from existing fields
across the line in Montana. It is
expected that it's tests will show
that the northwestern part of South
Dakota can supply oil as we'll as
ignite deposits on which to draw
Tar motor fuel.

IIoboken, N. j., March 22-Adop-
ton Of Triplex nonshattcrable
glass by various auto manufacturers
has focused interest on how this
glass is made.
The type of Triplex used in wind
shields and windows Of automobiles
consists of three layers. The two
outside layers are of the finest OBJ
tainable plate or sheet glass. The
middle layer is a binding compost
ton commercially known Of pyroxa-
lin plastic. This il transparent
sheet Of cellulose material, like cell
luloid which may, in fact, also be
used.
Two pieces Of glass and one piece
Of pyrovalin plastic are first cut
to the exact size and shape Of the
desired windshield or window. This
must be done with infinite care be-
cause after it is finished Triplcx
can not be cut or altered in size.
The three layers are laid together
and put through II different pro-
cesses, including elaborate chemi-
cal cleaning, pressing between huge
presses which exert many tons
pressure OH each piece Of glass,
heat, grinding and polishing, and
sealing.
The three Nominations become SO
closely welded together that they
arc actually one piece. In thick
ness, windshield Triplcx is the same
as ordinary glass.
A vital and interesting step in
the manufacture of Triplex is the
sealing. If you inspect piece of
it, you will notice = narrow black
strip along tho center Of every
edge. This is the sealing compound
which is applied to the outside Of
the juncture Of the three lamina-
tions. 1t keeps out weather, mois-
ture. vibration, and all other influ-
ences which, if they could get in be-
tween the layers, would in time
eliminate the very safety features
which are essential.
Under impact, Triplcx does not
shatter or create flying fragments
because the flexible center layer
holds tightly to the outside layers.
The whole glass is flexible under
strain, as was demonstrated in a
recent accident, where the wind
shield was bulged four inches out of
line without SCATTERING.
Under severe impact, Triplex will
let q flying body pass through it.
But even then it does not make
Jagged edges and does not lacerate

the cash prizes $50 laundry service
credits were given in this state for
unusually meritorious letters.
Mrs. Bcrtsch stressed in her letter

laundry washing safeguards health;
laundry washed clothes last longer;
laundry washed clothes are cleaner;
laundry washing costs less; and
laundry washing frees one from slav-
