Wakefield, of Eddyville was in town todav and gave a very interesting description of the changed conditions of the coast country during the past two or three years. As a stock country it is rapidly being settled with new people who are turning their attention largely to sheep1, goats and cattle, and as the mist laden ocean breeze always keeps the ground moist the grass is ever green and fresh. Dairying is also very prof' itable and to this industry Mr.. Wake field has turned his attention.. A pretty little story he tells of milking nineteen cows and churning out $160 this month. Two of the critters are heifers and five strippers but the others hustle to make up the deficiency. Many others are also engaged in this industry'and the flies buzz sweetly around the sour milk cans atEddyvileas the' train pulls in. $3,000 was paid for one mohair pool there and many new billys are coming every year.

Engineer and Farmer Build Self Ris ing Airship Successful Test Flight. Working in strictest secrecy in a windowless cement shop located at a lonely point in the woods eight miles northwest of Medicine lake. Hennepin county. Minn.. J. Stewart, a retired railroad engineer, and Si BrownelJ. a farmer with mechanical, genius, have nvented an aeroplane which promises to rival that of the Wright brothers. says a Minneapolis dispatch" Because of the peculiar arrangement of the planes and of the means of ma nipulation ihe Stewart-Brownell inven tion is called a "butterfly" aeroplane. At full moon the other night a suc cessful flight was made with Fred Parker, former operator and expert for' Roy Knabenshue and Baldwin. Parker reached an altitude between 250 and 300 feet and remained in the air ten minutes. The "butterfly" aeroplane claims sev eral advantages over all others. It rises without running wheels or any assistance other than from its engine and weighs complete only 200 pounds. less than one-third the weight of the Wright brothers' aeroplane. The engine is the invention of Stew art, who has been working on it for twelve years. ,. The planes and their arrangement are the joint conception of Brownell and Stewart. Like the Wrights,' the inventors of the. "butter fly" airship are maintaining the great est secrecy, but several persons have seen it and witnessed its recent flight. The engine is of the Gnome type. and its five cylinders are connected with the main shaft operating the pro- neller. They are so arranged and equipped as to work independent or each other, and at the trial the other night the engine made 1,800 revolu tions. The horsepower developed is es timated at between twelve and fifteen. The weight is less than a hundred pounds. The cylinders are one-eighth of an inch thick. The stroke is three and one-half inches. Brownell and Stewart have arranged to enter the trials for heavier than air flying macWnes to be conducted under the auspices of the United States gov ernment at Fort Myer In October. By that time they expect to perfect their invention so 'as to reach any -desired height and a speed of not less than forty-five miles an hour. I YOU CANNOT AFFORD . .

So Says College Dean, Who Predicts a Population of 1,400,000,000. v "We, have seen the last of cheap bread in this, country," said Eugene Davenport, dean of the University of Illinois, Urbana, 111., at the graduation exercises of Rhode . Island State col lege held the other day, at which Dean Davenport and Governor Pothier of Rhode Island were, .according to a Kingston (R. I.) dispatgj the principal speakers. . Dean Davenport estimated that In another hundred years the population of the United States would be 1,400, 000,000, or more than 400 to the square mile of territory, and said: "Any way you can figure it we are near the end of cheap food in this country, which means that population Is beginning to overtake the food sup ply. We can increase production yet many fold by means of better methods," more intensive practice and the requi sition of yet undeveloped acres, but' the best land has been developed, its .fertility has been more or less de pleted, and some of it has already been abandoned, and. while I have no de-H sire to pose as a prophet and still less to dogmatize. I am ready to venture the opinion that we have seen the last of cheap white bread in this "country." PEACE KING, UNCLE . SAM. Justice Brewer Says Providence Made . ; Us World Power. . r "America . is the logical nation to bring about universal peace through out the world," said United States Su preme Court Justice David J. Brewer the other day before the New Jersey Bar association in Atlantic City, N. J "I believe an all wise Providence had a hand in the rise of this great coun try to a world power that is able to dictate peace instead of war through out the world." he added. "With brass buttons and "epaulets becoming more plenty, with constant talk of fighting and invention of new weapons, this country must witch to prevent its people drifting Into dreams of empire that can only lead to disas ter. Many wars are simply caused by political ambition." He ' predicted that the time would come when-the real arbitration would be made "between London and New York, with other money markets of the world." ' New Baseball Record. The Pacific Coast league , made a baseball history the other day when a world's record was established Freeman's park, in San' Francisco, by the contest between the San Francisco and Oakland teams. For the first time in the annals of the national pastime a game between teams is one of th biggest leagues of the Unftefi States went .. for twenty-three innings without a run being "scored.
