DAIRY
INCREASES IN VALUE

AMES, Ia, Dec. 13.-lP)-C. ",
Larson, director Of the National
Dairy council. places the value Of All
Iowa dairy products last year at
1854, 900 900, equal to an average in
come of $6sS for every farm fam
lily in the state.
The Significance Of the valuation
was stressed BY DR.. Larson, former
chief Of the federal bureau Of dairy
industry, in an address al the dcdica-
ton Of tho new Dairy Industry
building at Iowa State college. The
old building was erected % years
ago and DR.. Larson pointed out that
az that time the total value Of dairy
products in Iowa was estimated nj
only S30,0O0.000.
At that time. he said, the value
of dairy products was about 10 per
cent of the gross value Of all crops
in the state, whereas last year they
'-ere worth about a third as much
as all crops. Only one other state
produces rs much butter as Iowa and

OPENING
CHUTE SAFE
Army Tests Reveal
Daredevil Stunt
Not Hazardous

DAYTON, O., Dec. 13.@tP1-One
OF the greatest popular thrillers IN
the aerial daredevil's bag Of tricks
the delayed parachute Jumps
not as hazardous as it appears.
Tests made by the United States
army air corps at Wright Field lead
to the conclusion that the flier who
delays opening his arachute sev
eral hundred or several thousand
feet takes no extraordinarily great
err risk than the man who follows
the beginners instructions TO Count
ten and turn to the right"
The popular belief that the far
ther a man falls the faster he will
speed toward the earth, and prob
ably will become unconscious. like
wise is declared
Experiments were l.adc by Capt.
st. Clair STREET.. chief test pilot
at Wright Field. and Lieut.. A. &.
Foulk to determine the rate Of speed
mt which a man, equipped with an
unopened parachute, falls from a
speeding plane.
They proved, according to Lieut..
Foulk's report, that n man who
Jumps from n plane speeding ESQ
miles an hour through space actual
" slows up from that speed before
he hits the earth. The data as
sembled from the tests made with
the aid Of night flying and photo
graphy show that the air pressure
offers a certain resistance to the
falling man and causes him to
reach a terminal falling velocity
within a few seconds after he has
left the airplane.
A man in good health does not
lose his faculties during the course
Of a precipitate drop through space.
according TO the conclusio-r reach
ed by Captain STREET. and Lieuten-
ant Foulk.
If n man weighing $50 pounds.
dressed in flying clothes and equip
ped with a dummy parachute pack,
should jump from an airplane fly
ing at 2.400 feet. he would reach
n terminal velocity Of 119 miles ar
hour at the end of the first II 1-2
seconds. although it would take him
IL IL seconds to reach the ground.
These figures are taken from one
Of the scores Of actual experiments
made by army filters, who used dunn
mics approximating the weight of
normal men and equipped with dunn
my parachute packs. The dummies
were dropped at a specified place on
a speed course and from an altitude
agreed upon before each flight. Spe'
cially equipped motion picture cam
eras were trained on the path of the
falling dummy. which was illuminat'
cd for Photographic and observation
purposes by n magnesium flare.

SANTA CLAUS, Ind, Dee. 12.-
This little hamlet. with a population
of 100 persons, isn't any more impor-
tant than thousands of other tiny
dots on the map Of 81 weeks Of the
year, but there's one week that it
assumes nationwide consequence
and that's Christmas week. Where.
indeed. would Santa Claus receive
his mail if not at the Santa Claus
postoffice? And isn't il logical that
he would mail letters TO his little
friends from there?
Christmastide means busy days
for Postmaster James r. Martin.
When Santa is busy Martin opens
his mail and sees that the children's
missives are answered and he re-
stamps hundreds Of letters which
come to the Indiana town so that
they will bear the postmark Of San
tn Claus.
Each year Martin gets many let
tiers addressed only TO Santa Claus"
and mail clerks knowing Of the town,
route the mail TO Martin. The let
ters come not only from the United
States but also from foreign coun-
tries.

was decided to rechristen the ham
