GUN OF NEARBY MAN
Arlington Inventor Perfects Ma

BY stan correspondent OF The Star.
LYON VILLAGE, Va, November l.
Waiting until it had been accepted by
the Navy Department for manufacture,
Robert F. Hudson, 7l-year-old inventor
of this place. last night announced that
he had perfected a machine-gun capable
Of firing 300 bullets o distance of 8
miles each minute. The gun Is now
being manufactured at the Washington
Navy Yard. the first to be completed
early next year, Hudson said.
Prior to the World War Hudson was
a travelling salesman, but since that
time has confined his talents to inven-
ton, already having to his credit the
perfection of a machine-gun capable Of
firing .30-caliber bullets at the rate Of
1000 per minute.
The latest invention is a gun firing
.50-caliber bullets and was designed
primarily as an anti-aircraft gun, being
able to bring down a plane within a
radius of a mile and-a-half. 1t has no
recoil and no flash, the recoil being
prevented by powder gases which are
designed to push the barrel forward.
1t has taken Hudson IL years to COM
plete his latest gun, his experimenting
being done in q small workshop at
Rosslyn and know to but few people.

Bees Aid Cherry,
Apple Production

Washington.-Apple crops can be,
and in some communities are, being
multiplied 400 per cent, and cherry
production LOO per cent, by utilizing
the services of bees, according to DR..
e. L. Sechrist, apiculturist in the bu-
reau of entomology of the Department
of Agriculture.
With DR.. James r. Hamilton, chief
Of the bureaus division on bee cul.
ture, Doctor Sechrist has just re-
turned to Washington after accom-
panying a group Of Michigan beekeep-
ers on tour Of that state.
"One farmer, between Grand Rap
ids and Muskegon, increased his apple
crop from 1,400 bushels the previous
year to 5000 bushels last year, by u.s.
ing BEES" Doctor Sechrist reports.
Another farmer, by putting hive
of bees under cherry tree, obtained
A pounds of cherries from the tree
instead Of four pounds, which was the
production Of another tree nearby"
The scheme consists in placing q
hive of bees under small cherry or
apple tree and keeping it there. The
bees pollinate the sterile trees and
those that have skinny yields, and
bumper crops are the result.

TROPICS SEND FOOD
FOR OUR BREAKFAST
Much of 1t Passes Through
New Orleans Port.

New Orleans.-Civilizati may not
be shifting so rapidly-but in the last
decade the source Of supply for the
American breakfast table has moved
from the plains Of the Middle West
to the jungle Of the tropics.
While the preceding generations de-
pended on middle western farmers for
their breakfast delicacies a large part
of the materials for the modern morn
ing table come from Cuba, Mexico
and other South and Central American
countries.
Each day brings many ships into
: this port heavily laden with tropical
cargo. A great part of the fruit and
coffee used in the United States passes
through this city each month. At this
time of the year, hundreds Of long
shoremen are rapidly unloading large
Shipments so they may be sent north
before the heat prevalent here ruins
them.
Mexico, Brazil and Costa RIGA sup
ply large quantities of high grade cof-
fee, while exceptionally fine fruits
come from Cuba. Bananas valued at
21,0O0 from Mexico, and $27S,OO0
worth of coffee from Brazil were
among the leading single shipments re-
ceived here from Latin-American coun-
tries in a single month.
The cane fields of Cuba contribute
large amounts of sugar. Huge barges
bring the raw cane up the Mississippi
to refneries, which turn out the fine
grain and powdered sugar. The cane,
after the sugar is extracted, is utilized
in making celotex.
A great deal of government revenue
is furnished by the duties on coffee,
sugar and fruits. Some foods, however,
are entered duty free because they
are perishable.

Police Badge of 1894
Plowed Up by Farmer

Baltimore.-An old police badge, in
scribed with the date of the incorpor-
alton of the city of Baltimore, re-
plica of the Battle monument and the
words city police, was recently discov-
cred under unusual circumstances, and
after passing through several hands,
has found it's way into the collection
of like curios, which is hobby of
Sergt. John Rollman of Baltimore.
The badge, bearing the date 1894,
was discovered on the farm of Will
liam Hammond and William Faulkner,
of Hereford, Baltimore county. 1t was
brought to light by Hammond while he
was blowing on his farm early in June.
Later it was acquired by Sergeant
Rollman, who learned that it is one
Of the first badges worn by the police
of Baltimore. The type was discon-
tinued and the present badge made its
appearance at the close of the last
century.
Great curiosity and speculation has
arisen among the police of the central
district regarding it's late resting place.
One explanation offered is that in
days gone by when there were none
of the modern means of cOmmunica-
ton between the patroling officer and
his station house, brand new police
man wandered away and persisted in
the wilds of Baltimore county. No
such case is on record, however.
