a glance nearly everything neces-
sary to know about landing field.
He can tell its size, the condition
of the ground, height Of grass or
weeds, whether there are any
rocks, holes, posts or bitches in the
way, if the land is rough and rolling
or flat and smooth; in short wealth
er the field is suitable to land in
or if it would be advisable to look
for another and better one. In
fact the success of transforming
pilot of the old days was meas
ured to a large extent by his art
fitness in the choice of fields from
which to operate. Often, in case
of motor failure, the safety of his
passengers, himself and his ship de-
pended upon his alertness in choos-
ing the best available landing place
and his ability in maneuvering the
plane into it. If his motor fail
ure was only partial or at high al
titude, time was not so essential,
as a plane can glide a great dis
tance, either with a motor which
only "revs" down a couple of
hundred R. P. M. or without any
assistance from the engine at all.
The average wartime machine
could glide at least five times its
height, which meant that if it was
five thousand feet above the ground
! the pilot could pick a field to land
in five miles away with safety; but
if the failure was soon after the
takeoff then instant decision and
immediate action were necessary.
An amateur, on the other hand,
has not overcome the strangeness
of altitude, and the ground be-
low looks entirely different than
it does from the air; although there
is not the sensation, in an air
plane of looking down as from a
high building. Hills appear as flat
country, boulders and bitches are
invisible, size are deceptive and
marshes appear as solid grassland.
The student has not the back
ground of experience so essential
to the successful pilot, yet his on
ly method of learning lies in his
own initiative in meeting and ov-
grooming service conditions.
There was no regular airport in
Meridian in 1923, and few fields
available for reasonably safe
landing. After half hours
search I decided on the largest pas
ture / could see, made the best
kind of a short field landing I
knew how by coming down just
over the tree tops, with the en-
CINE wide open, to the edge of the
field, then cutting the gun and
allowing the ship to slow down to
its landing speed. This method
brings the plane in with tremen-
dous velocity and requires a much
larger landing field than is neces-
sary, but until the pilot has flown
long enough to have the "feel" of
his ship it is far safer to come in
fast than too slow.
1t had been raining at Meridian
and the field was a little soft, so
that when my Jenny" finally did
settle to the ground it had very
short roll and there was still some
clear ground in front.

fore making any more flights and
TAXED back to the hangar.
A pilot who was waiting for de-
livery of one of the Jennles Of
fered to give me a little dual in
struction, and / flew around with
him for thirty minutes and made
several landings. At the end of
this time he TAXED up to the line
and told me that I would have no
trouble and was only little rusty
from not flying recently. He ad-
vised me to wait until evening,
when the air was smooth, and then
to make few solo flights.
When evening came ! TAXED out
from the line, took one last look at
the instruments and took off on
my first solo.
The first solo flight is one of the
events in pilots life which for
ever remains impressed on his
memory. 1t is the elimination of
difficult hours of instruction, hard
weeks of training and often years
of anticipation. To be absolutely
alone for the first time in the cock
pit of a plant hundreds of feet
above the ground is an experience
never to be forgotten.
After a week of practice flights
around Southern Field / rolled my
equipment and a few spare parts
up in a blanket, lashed them in
the front cockpit and took off for
Minnesota.
This was my first cross-country
flight alone, less than a week af-
tier my solo hop. Altogether
had less than five hours of solo
time to my credit. l had, however
obtained invaluable experience
the year before while flying around
in the Western States with Biffle,
BAIL and Lynch.
While learning TO fly in Ne
braska the previous spring l dis
covered that nearly every pilot in
existence had flown in Texas at
one time or another during his
flying career. Accordingly, l de-
cided that at the first opportunity
l would fly to Texas myself and,
although I travelled rather
roundabout way from Georgia to
Minnesota, my course passed
through Texarkana en- route.
The first hop was from Ameri-
Gus to Montgomery, Ala, and pass
ed over some fairly rough terri
tory, of which both Georgia and
Alabama have their share.
I had been warned before leav-
ing the field that the airline
course to Texas was over some of
the worst flying country in the
South" and had been advised to
take either a northern course di-
rectly to Minnesota or to follow
the Gulf of Mexico. This advice
served to create a desire to find
out what the "worst flying coun-
try in the South" looked like. /
had a great deal of confidence in
my Jenny with it's powerful OX-5
engine, and it seemed absurd to
me at that time to detour by air.
plane. Consequently, I laid my
route in the most direct line pos
sible to conform with my limited
cruising range with forty gallons of
fuel.
The flight to Montgomery was
uneventful. landed at the army
field there before noon, filled the
fuel tanks and took off again for
Meridian, Miss.
I arrived over Meridian in late
afternoon and for the first time
was faced with the problem of
finding suitable field and land
ing in it. 49,.

stone, l had decided that the next
spring / would be flying my own
ship.
Consequently, when April ar.
rived l left Miami and went to
Americas, Ca, where the Govern
ment had auctioned off a large
number of "Jennies," as we called
certain wartime training planes
! bought one of these ships with q
new Curtis OG-5 motor and full
equipment for five hundred dol
lars. They had cost the Govern
ment nearly twice as many thous-
ands, but at the close of the wal
the surplus planes were sold fol-
what they would bring and the
training fields were abandoned =.
Americas, Ga, was a typical
example of this. The planes had
been auctioned for as little as
fifty dollars a piece the year be-
fore. A few days after l arrived
the last officer left the post and ii
took its place among the phantom
airports of the war.
1 lived alone on the post during
the two weeks my plane was being
assembled, sometimes sleeping in
one of the twelve remaining han
gars and sometimes in one of the
barracks buildings. One after
noon a visiting plane arrived and
Reese stepped out of the cockpit.
l had not heard from him since we
had traded planes in Montana, and
he stayed with me on the post that
night while we exchanged expert
ences of the previous year.
One of the interesting facts
bearing on the life of aviators is
that they rarely lose tracks of one
another permanently. Distance
means little to the pilot, and there
is always someone dropping in
from somewhere who knows all the
various fliers in his section of the
country, and who is willing to sit
down and do a little ground fly
ing" with the local pilots. In this
way intimate contact is continual
ly established throughout the clan.
Ground flying is the term used to
designate the exchange of flying
experiences among airmen.
| had not soloed up to the time
l bought my Jenny at Americas,
although at that time the fact was
strictly confidential.
After my training at Lincoln
had not been able to furnish the
required bond, and, although I
had done a little flying on cross
country trips with BAIL and Lynch,
l had never been up in a plane
alone. Therefore, when my Jenny
was completely assembled and
ready to fly, was undecided as to
the best method of procedure. No
one on the field knew that l had
never soloed. I had not been in a
plane for six months; but 1 did not
have sufficient money to pay for

Alfalfa, one of the best forage crops
for making milk flow, needs a sweet
soil to grow it successfully. Being a
crop that is capable Of making nitro
gen in the soil Ga legune) it carries
on its roots certain bacteria and will
not grow well in acid soils. Exten-,
sive soil testing campaigns in Kent
and Queen Anne's counties, Maryland,
discovered that very few fields did not
need lime at all and most of them
need lime from 500 to 1000 Or more
pounds per acre. The other three
counties in this campaign will likely
find conditions somewhat similar.
The question then confronts the
farmer, who is intending to plant al
falfa as to how much lime is neces-
sary to change his soil from acid to
sweet. All county agents in this Five
County Alfalfa Campaign are, or will
be- equipped to test samples of soil
brought to his office and will result in
the farmer knowing how much to ap-
ply. 1t is just as foolish to apply an
excessive quantity of lime when it is
not needed than to try to grow alfalfa
on ground that does not have enough
lime. To obtain a fair sample Of soil
from the field in question, not less
than three samples should be taken
from any one field and in large fields
over 80 acres, one sample for every
ten acres is advised. These different
samples from the same field should be
thoroughly mixed together after dry
out-and after properly marking
bag as to the ,eld in question, cup
full is sufficient to bring in to the
agents office. By the use of a spade
driven down about inches and the
handled moved back and forth few
times, the spade can be removed and
a IL inch slice taken off the edge of
the cut. All the slices will be mixed
together for the composite sample.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. CP).--Dangerous
snails are relatively few when it is con-
sidered that they are confined, as far as
is now known, to not more than 60
among about $4,000 species of mollusks
which make up their great division of
the animal kingdom
They are sufficiently numerous, how
ever. to be indirectly responsible for a
variety of parasitic diseases which af-
f1ict animals and to a less extent human
beings in various parts of the world
The mollusks which for this reason
are of interest to medical science, Prof.
J. Bequaert of the Harvard Medical
School has found, all belong to the
class which includes the marine, fresh
water and terrestrial snailS and slugs.
Their danger to human and animal
health, he explains, lies in the fact that
they harbor the larvae of disease pro-
ducing worms which without them
would not be able to develop further.
THE effective control or total exter-
mination of potential molluskan hosts"
he says. may therefore be included
among the prophylactic measures. The
possibility of eradicating the disease by
an attack upon the intermediary host
depends to very large extent upon the
