Baseball
A very interesting game of base
ball was played on the school house
grounds here Saturday afternoon
between the clubs. from Hickman
and Glendale. It was a hard con-
tested game and resulted in a score
of 3 to 2 in favor of Hickman.
Ellendale will have to practice
more so as to win from all comers.
They used to think themselves in
Vincible.
Advance OF Grain And Beans
The rapid advance of grain and
soy beans should make those who
have them to sell in a very happy
mood. Wheat at 80 cents; corn at 60
cents and soy beans at $3.50 per
bushel for each of these commodi-
ties, makes one think that the good
old times which farmers used to
have were coming back. The worst
feature to be reckoned with is per-
haps the farmers were forced to sell
at low prices to pay their debts and
leaving the bulk of the grain and
soy beans in the hands of specula
tors. We believe the farmers have
seen their worst. The future will de-
velop more prosperous times for
them.

CUBA TO YIELD SILK
AS RIVAL OF ORIENT
New Industry Foreseen by Expert.
menter After 12 Years Study;
Has $4,000 Cocoons.

HAVANA R-That silk some day
may come from Cuba instead Of the
Orient is the hope Of Miss Carmen de
Gcrivar. an employe OF the Cuban De-
partment Of Agriculture.
With DR.. Donate del Castillo, Hav-
ana business man, she has spent IL
years experimenting with sikworm
culture and now has 5000 grubs spin
ming cocoons at her home, In San
Miguel street. The partners also have
10000 mulberry trees ready to plant.
From egg to cocoon takes from 81 to
81 days in Cuba, Miss Gorivar said. She
added she is enthusiastic over the pos
sibility Of adding an industry to this
country's resources.
Worms of 10 different species are
being used in the experiments, the list
including Chinese Whites, Japanese
Whites, Japanese Greens. Kan Rows,
Sierra Morenas. Perugias, Bagdads,
Salas, Black Butterflies and Yellow
Colds.
The 10 grams Of eggs used will pro-
duce about IS pounds Of cocoons, 1t Is
estimated. which should sell for $50 q
pound. This return moro than covers
the cost Of the eggs, mulberry leaves and
labor, the expertmenters assert.

District National Guard

In order to be able to pass the rigid
field inspections which have been called
for by the War Department. the Ma
tional Guard Of the District Of Co.
lumbia Is making preparations for the
annual encampments In . very thor
ough way. Although Maj. Gen. Anton
Stephan. commanding the local militia
and the 29th National Guard Division,
is still confined to Mount Alto Hospital
here. where he Is said to be improving,
he is directing the work Of preparing
not only for the division headquarters
encampment, but for the other troops
Of the local militia.
There are many details to be ar.
paraphernalia, transportation to and
from the camp, and location of places
where supplies can be purchased.
The War Department has pointed out
in q letter to the guard units that the
feld inspections are for the purpose
Of ascertaining the state Of training Of
the units and organizations Of the
National Guard and to determine their
degree Of readiness for combat service.
They form the basis for estimates Of
future training requirements and for
the directiveS OF the Militia Bureau
and corps area commanders In meeting
these requirements.
The department announced that In
order that the field inspections may
produce the essential information re-
quired by the Militia Bureau and the
corps area commander, the data re-
quired Is to be obtained by direct OBJ
servation Of the actual participation
and performance of all ranks in COM
bat exercises, tactical problems and
command post exercises Of suitable
character. The following additional
factors, 1t was pointed out, should also
be carefully considered: The strength
present and the character of personnel;
administration and conduct Of camp
activities: condition and completeness
of arms, uniforms and equipment; dis
cipline and general all-around efficiency
Of training and command. 1t was said
that from the consideration Of all these
Evening star., 1933-07-09

factors the estimate as to the degree Of
readiness for combat service Is to be
made.
Field inspections will be made by
boards Of at least three officers of the
Regular Army designated by the corps
area commanders during the course Of
such annual field training maneuvers,
or coast defense exercises as may be
authorized: So far as practicable. only
organization to be inspected will be de-
tailed to make the inspections. II
officers other than Regular Army in
structors with the National Guard are
to be utilized, the department said that
1t considers 1t highly desirable that
they be officers who have had some
experience with the National Guard
and are more or less familiar with its
problems. So far as possible, the in
structions say, the board should not In
clude an instructor Of the organization
inspected.
No formal field inspection Is to be
required. The necessary observation Is
to be made In a manner that will cause
schedule Of instruction. The factors
enumerated will be carefully con-
sidered throughout the entire period Of
the camp by the board before assigning
final ratings to the organization.
The letter points out that high per-
centage of attendance at camp is one
Of the best indications of the efficiency
Of an organization. Only with the ap-
proach Of 100 per cent attendance can
any real estimate Of the efficiency and
training Of an organization be made,
1t Is said. In making this inspection,
the letter Of instruction says the In
spection Board must consider the entire
personnel present. The presence Of an
excessive number of recruits, it was
added, is naturally in the character Of
the training and should result in a
lower rating being given under this
factor.
In order that an accurate estimate
may be obtained of the condition and
completeness of uniforms. arms and
equipment, as are with the troops in
camp. and . rating assigned for this

ordered carried out:
National Guard field training pro-
grams for all organizations will provide
for an inspection to be held in full
fleld equipment, including the pitching
Of shelter tents end display of equip
ment, during the latter days Of camp.
These inspections will be conducted
under the entire supervision and con-
troll Of National Guard commanders.
Inspection boards are to accompany
National Guard commanders during
their inspections of troops and will
make such inspection as Is necessary
to arrive at conclusion as to the exact
condition of the United States prop
erty In camp In the hands Of troops.
When an organization is using guns
motors or other equipment which is
issued them for training purposes upon
arrival at camp and which Is not part
Of the organizational equipment, in

to the amount and serviceability Of like

Engine Progress Compared.

While European air powers have been
devoting great deal Of attention to the
development Of liquid-cooled airplane
engines and have forged ahead In this
respect, the United States has carried
the air-cooled engine to a point of
perfection beyond that attained by any
of the foreign powers, according to a
survey completed by the Army Air
Corps Materiel Division, Wight Field

As a result Of the intensive work
which has been carried on with large
1iquid-cooled engines in Europe, the
larger foreign powers all have liquid
cooled engines which exceed those of
the United States in horsepower, the
Materiel Division reported. In other
characteristics, however, American
fqynd-cooled engines compare favor
