Rotary Club Hears
State Forester

The Lexington Rotary Club had as
guest speaker at its weekly luncheon
meeting Friday, Mr.. Paul Millsaps,
State Extension Forester of State
College.
Mr.. Millsaps gave an interesting
outline of forest conditions in Hol-
mes County and the possibilities of
forestry as a major industry here.
He told the Rotarians that Holmes
County ranks 18th in timber produc-
ton in Mississippi. Holmes County
has over 100000 acres of land adapt
ed only for timber growing, he said,
and with the propermanagement this
land would produce an annual in
come in excess of $2,000,000.
In connection with the discussion,
Mr.. Millsaps showed several by-pro-
ducts of the timber industry includ-
ing cloth, and paper products.
County Agent w. r. Sullivan is

TWO COMPANIES TO BID

 Burdick said indications are ,o this effect although they have uu- til mid-November to qualify anu will bid orally December 15
 One company is the Puget Sound Pulp and Timber Company of Bel lingham, which has had its en- gineers inspect sites in this area in recent weeks. The other comp any is already in the pulp and pa per business bue is not believed to have made any on-the-spot sur veys as yet.
 Third Timber Tract
 Two concerns also may bid on the Thomas Bay timber stand for use in a mill near Petersburg. Burdiek said. If three or four com panies thus show interest in es. tablishing mills in the near future. a third timber tract. either at Sit ka or near Ketchikan, may be ad- vertised before the year is over. This would show Congress in it's coming session that it's passage or the Tongass timber sale bill was the forerunner of major industrial development in Alaska.

Army Burles Live Bombs,
Storage Space Running Low

WASHINGTON. The army, hard
pressed for magazines in which to
store its big stock Of bombs. now is
burying live missiles in the
ground.
It disclosed that at one of the new
projects, the Savanna ordnance de-
pot in northwestern Illinois. about
$50 tons Of bombs is being planted
In pits.
The conventional method has been
to use igloo-shaped magazines, spe-
cially built, for keeping bombs but,
said the army, ''there are now too
few magazines and little likelihood
of construction of new ones"
Under the new plan. outside parts
and shipping bands are removed
from the bombs and the cases, with
the explosive charge intact, are
treated with preservative. The
bombs then are stacked in pit,
covered with earth and the covering

When the water drops reached a
critical size of about three-six-
teenths of an inch in diameter, they
would begin shedding or throwing
off water particles collected from
that time on. These particles, too
little, in weight to resist the up
ward wind currents in the cloud,
would be driven back upward, but,
as they progressed, they would be
continuously collecting the smaller
cloud water droplets in their path.
Eventually, they would attain a
size and weight sufficient enough to
begin falling again.
{ If the cloud has all the necessary
characteristics, the falling drops
would begin shedding water parti-
cles at a higher level each success
sive time they fell, and thus, chain
reaction activity would progress
throughout the cloud, DR.. Langmuir
explained.
Such a chain reaction would be
roughly. similar to that which oc.
ours IN. atomic energy, where one
unit splits into two units, two into
four, four into 16, etc, lie said.
A principal difference, however,
would be that the main body of fall
ing water drop would continue fall
ing. Rather than completely split
ting into two or more parts, ii
would shed water particles from
the time it reached its full growth
of about three-sixteenths of an inch
Thus. under the new method, the
chain reaction would be completed
when all the cloud water had been
collected into drops large enough
to fall out of the cloud as rain.
Theoretically, a single drop o,
water, if dispensed in the righ
spot, would be sufficient to caus,

G. E. PRODUCES NEW
RAIN MAKING METHOD

A new method for producing rain,
by which ordinary water dispensed
in small quantities into actively
growing cumulus clouds initiates a
"chain reaction" rainfall from such
clouds, was disclosed by DR.. Irving
Langmuir, associate director of the
General Electric Company's Re-
search Laboratory in paper pre-
sented at the recent autumn meet
ing of the National Academy OF
Sciences.
Unlike the dry-ice or silver iodide
methods of producing precipitation
which are effective only in super
cooled clouds above the freezing
level in the sky, the new method
applies to producing rain from
, cumulus clouds of any temperature
above or below the freezing level.
Also in contrast to previously
discovered methods, the new tech
nique is simpler in that it produces
rain directly. The dry-ice and sill
yer iodide methods first produce
snow, which may turn to rain as il
falls.
Certain characteristics the cumu-
lus clouds must have, in order fol
the new method to be effective, in
clude vertical, upward wind cur
rent of at least five miles per hour
fully-grown cloud water droplets, {
high cloud water content, and {
cloud thickness of several Thousand
/ feet, according to DR.. Langmuir.,i
Such cumulus clouds are foun(
frequently in the summer in 3th'
northeastern part of the UniteC
States and all year round over thu
south, the Pacific coast, and tht
tropics.
According to the theory behint
the method, small quantity of wa
ter dispensed into cumulus clout
would begin falling in the form o
ordinary water drops. The drop
would be large enough to fall de
spite the upward wind currents. Al
these drops fell, they would collec
the many-times-smaller cloud wa
ter droplets in their path. BY &C
cretion, the drops thus would grow
continuously as they fell

the chain reaction rainfall" DR..
Langmuir said.
Rainfall precipitated from cloud
would lower the clouds density, and
thus, the upward wind currents
could cause the cloud to grow to
much greater heights, DR.. Lang
muir said. AS it grew, the cloud pro-
badly would draw in additional
moisture from the atmosphere, and
thus, it might be possible to produce
self-propagating or continuing
rainstorm, he stated.
DR.. Langmuir said he worked out
the theory behind the method only
recently, after strange, inexplicable
phenomena had been reported to
him by various persons engaged in
conducting rain-making expert
Inents with dry-ice.
He said that an experiment con-
Quoted over the Pacific Ocean BY
Maurice H. Halstead, of Honolulu
resulted in 1.25 inch rainfall over
35 miles area from cumulus
clouds that were below the freeZlns
level and thus were not supercooled
"It was evident that an unex
planned different process was tax
ing place, since dry-ice is effectiv'
only in supercooled clouds abov,
the freezing level" DR.. Langmui
said.
"The rainfall caused in this in
stance was not due to the dry-ic
but probably due to particles o
ordinary ice collected on the dry1ic
pellets. These ice particles melte
into water drops, and evidently Sc
off a chain reaction in the cloud,
he said
