Not a fatality has been checked against the air service during the three months that have elapsed since Major Gen oral Mason M. Patrick, chief of the United States Air Service issued or ders to the commanding1 officers of Chanute, Italling-, Lanfrley, Mitchtll, McCook and Selfridge Fields to inau gurate regular scheduled flights over a model airway over the eastern and middle western states, according to records here. The model air course takes in New York, Hampton, Va., Cleveland, To ledo! Detroit, Kokomo, 1ml., and Ran toul. Each field dispatches a plane bi-weekly. The retards show that the first flights were not all completed on schedule time, but each trip has shown an improvement. A trip re cently completed was from Chanute Field to Dayton, O., to Columbus O., back to Dayton, to Moundsville, W. Va., ,to Washington to Cumberland, Md., 'to New York, back to i Washing ton, to Moundsville, to Cleveland, to J)etroit, to. Toledo, back to Detroit, to Kokomo, Ind,, and return to Cha nute Field. The distance covered was more than 2200 miles and the total actual flying time was 22 hours and ten minutes. While no aviator was killed, yet the flights were far from devoid of excitement and hairbreadth escapes. Major F. L. Martin in a recent trip left Chanute on a route which covered 1800 miles. He was furnish ed with strip mup.'i covering the en tire 'route, but only for territory a few miles each side of'the route. The only landing placo between Zanes ville, Ohio, and Washington is ' Moundsville, the remaining land scape being1 almost continuously mountainous. Being behind schedule, Major Martin tried a more direct route than that outlined and almost immediately ran into a strong head wind and dense clouds. He was blown off his course while flying over the mountains. After some time of aimless flying, trying to obtain his bearings, he suddenly realized his gas was getting low, his oil was al most gone, and that he had no place to land. He was rather high at the time and dropped down to try for a landing. Just before his gas gave out he saw a town and recognized it as Moundsville, his original objective. On landing safely he found he had only three gallons of gasoline left, and no oil. Lieutenant Floyd A. Lundell start ed the only flight in the three months that was not carried out suc cessfully, but fellow aviators look up on him as having a charmed life. His first mishap on his route from Chanute to New York was when a spark plug went wrong and he was forced down near Wheeling, W. Va. He repaired the damage and took off again only to find dense clouds con fronting him. When he had climbed above them he learned he was out of oil. He again landed safely, replen ished his oil tank and was off again for Washington. He arrived there a day late, but went on immediately to New York intending to make up time by returning to 'Washington the Fame afternoon. Lieutenant Lundell start ed from New York just before twi light and a strong wind almost imme diately blew him off his course. He finally found himself on the edge of Chesapeake Hay fighting an outgoing whid. He wns forced to land, but it was too dark to ee the ground. He filially cbcided to go it blind and landed in n field, but Lady Luck had her head turned the other way and he hit the only tree in the field. His plane crashed ami was demolished, but the aviator escaped with a slight cut over the eye. EDISON. FORD AT BL'RBANK JUBILEE SK All church notices must be in the hands of the editor by 4 p- ! m.

Call to worship "The Earth is Jehovah's, and the fullness thereof; The world, WINNING ,OUT WITH ASTERS j The rivalry among gardeners to produce the largest and fluffiest as lers is one of the most interesting features of the garden season and cultural skill is the chief factor which must be depended lipon to pro duce the desired results. The selection of seeil will in large measure tell the size of the flowers, relatively, as some varieties natur ally are larger flowered than others. As a rule the later flowering types are larger flowering than the earl iest. Asters will thrive in any soil which will produce good vegetables and they will repay any extra atten tion in the wav of fertilizing. They also need cultivation all summer to be kept in unchecked and vigorous growth. Commercial fertilizer, par ticularly bone meal hoed around them at intervals of two or three weeks, is a great help. The addition of wood ashes or air slaked lime when the bed is prepared is coming to be considered an essen tial. It not only adds valuable fer tilizer to the soil in the case of ashes and sweetens the soil and releases plant food in the case of the lime, but these two act as a check to the stem rot which has given aster grow ers no end of trouble during me last season or two. The root aDhis or nlant louse also is troublesome but if the soil is rich, has been limed or given wood ashes, the nest is not so likely to give trou ble. For August and later flowering it is quite advisable to start tne seed In the open ground as in tne house or frnme. The nlants will be more vigorous in most cases. They mav bo sown until well into May to continue the succession of flowers until frost. If asters are desired with long stems for cutting they should be giv-: en Hi leusi a luui apun ill lutv. feet apart. If for massing the beds for a sheet of color nine Inches to a foot each way is the closest they should be placed dependent upon the variety anu its style ot growtn. The succession of asters is about the followine-: earliest of all.
