The automatic Geographic devices
that have been used by the Western

These new devices displace Morse
operation as they are capable OF
moving messages at a rate Of %
words per minute whereas 40 words
was considered exceptionally good
for Morse transmission.
The sending is done on a keyboard

NEW INDUSTRY
IS PROPOSED
Californian Suggests
Marmalade Plants
For the Valley

q manufacture Of grapefruit
marmalade will eventually become
one OF the most important industries
IN n Valley is the opinion Of DR..
T.. b. Philbrook of Santa Graz, Calf,
who IS here looking over the Valley
with a view II locating permanently.
DR.. Philbrook has resided in Cali
lorna p years, but prior TO that
operated a marmalade manufacturing
plant IN Boston, using sour oranges
from Florida. Since coming 10 the
valley he has been experimenting
with Valley grapefruit, using the
same process employed in his Boston
plant, and has produced msrmalade
OF surprising quality.
The Valley grapefruit possesses
all the essentials for the manHfac-
ture Of Z marmzlade that would have
TO equal on the market" DR.. Phil
brook said. He advocated the estab-
lishment Of m~arnlalade plants in con-
junction with packing and canning
plants, stating that II would open a
large market for the Valley citrus
growers.
The cost Of manufacture would be
small" the doctor said. 81 would
advise the use Of fancy glass and
fancy labels; in other words, turn
out a product that would appeal 70
the best trade. The demand for mar
malade is increasing steadily especi-
ally in England and Canada. The
average Englishman demands mar
malaGe for breakfast every day. and
England should offer a big field fol-
the VALLEY product"
DIR. Philbrook has noted that Val
lev grapefruit has a distinctive flavor
which makes il preferable IN the
northern markets. and this flavor
will also prove an important factor
in creating a demand for the mar
malade. he said. The California
grapefruit makes an inferior quality
of marmalade. and sweet oranges
cannot be used. He pointed out that
the Valley product would practically
be without competition. and that
when the Valley gets into heavy pro-
duction Of fruit. marmalade plants
should prove a very valuable adjunct
10 the industry.

BIC SARATOGA
 ! BEING LIFTED THROUGH CANAL
Difficult Feat Is Underway Enroute from Att
 lantic to Pacific

COLON, Panama, Feb. G. Having climbed the narrow flight of three steps from the Atlantic. the giant aircraft carrier Sara toga is today resting in Gatun Lake, S5 feet above sea level.
 Because of the great width of the Saratoga it is considered it's voyage through the Gatun Locks is the most difficult op- eration ever tried in the canal
 The ship peeled several feet of concrete from the top of the lock wall in passing through the middle and upper chambers. The damage is considered slight as no damage to the Saratoga resulted. The Saratoga is 106 feet across at the widest point and the locks are no feet wide.
 Three locks through the Pan- anna Canal which the ship passed are 1000 feet long and the Sara toga is SSS feet long.
 Three more locks of the same dimensions lie between the Sara toga and the Pacific.
