AEROPLANE SUCCEEDING
DIRIGIBLE IN EUROPE
A Military Weapon Governments Are Discovering Clumsy Lighter-Thsa-Air
Inventions Not Equal to Plane Types. Progresa Being Made.
PAf. Kranre, June 1 peclal
The present ear seems destined
to il-cl.!. tietween the relative
worth of tlir dirigible airship and the
aeroplane And latere Is little doubt
trt the former wt'.l receive Us quietus
through ths grrai Improvements of the
Litter as a military weapon. These

Big Prices for I.anrix.
Ab ut four years ago Marsh Slnmson.
the Nestor of Klk City, was Jeered at
when he said he would never take less
than f2S0 per acre for his land at Klk
City. A year ago he got it ell right,
and now It is held at taut and ia worth
It- But Just as good a little above can
be had for 120 per acre if you buy all
the owners have. But three years ago
you could not sell a pound of hay, oats
or reed of any kind or clve away
aheep to be killed on shares, as there
waa no market.
But as Portland progresses and sets
the pare, conditions far away change
with it. Now there is a market for
every bale of hay, for oats, feed, vege
tables of all kinds, berries are shipped
all over. Butchers and cattle dealers
come from all around to buy our sheep,
cattle and hogs, pay cosh and take
them away and then corns back for
more.

for competition among the manufac
turers.
The winning type will bring the for
tunate maker $20,000 and an order for
10 machines at faOOO apiece. Further
more, great strides are being made In
I wireless telegraphy. No longer do ths
wires trail below tha machine, but un
der the new system connection has been
maintained both In France and In Ger
many for .0 miles.
Franc Is to Fore.
In Germany, Interest Is growing In
th development of heavler-than-alr
machines. Their recent Improvement
haa been followed with the concentrat
ed attention ths Teuton devotes to ev
erything likely to be of use In war.
Th Kaiser Is to bold an Inspection of
military airmen and their machines
early In April In order to test their ca
pabilities. And th planes are to taka
an active part in the Autumn military
and naval maneuvers.
As for England, the War Office is
forming a new Air Battalion, and also
an Aerial Reserve, composed of the
leading Brltl.ih civilian airmen, who
have volunteered for each service. One
of th regulations of th Air Battalion
is to be that the men employed must be
"good sailors," able to withstand sick
ness if the machine rolla or pitches In
th air. Candidates for this force will
serv a six months' probationary
course.
In Germany. France. Italy and Eng
land aeronautic maps In six colors are
being printed by the respective gov
ernment, for aerial work. These ar
on scale of approximately five miles
to the Inch with the roads in white,
woods in green, towns in red. and so
forth. I'lffirult landing places, such as
hop-fields, orchards and staep declivi
ties, are marked with a red cross,
while special signs Indicate windmills,
church towers, telegraph poles, chim
neys, aviation grounds, hangars and re
pair shops. All these evidences go to
prov bond doubt that air machines
have come to stay and will have to be
reckoned along with boats, automobiles
and other forms of traction.

the average parents posted on just
what la do with aaoh children as tha
parents chance to have at the time. It
Is something vastly more practical
when Professor R. J. Evarts, acknowl
edged statistician and student of her
edity, proposes to teach th newly mar
ried potential parenta Just what the
sex of their children reasonably may
be expected to be.
Not that this was the prime object
of Professor Evans' investigations
which were devoted to th explana
tion of why. now and then, nature
gradually allowed the male sex to in
crease strongly out of proportion to
the females; and after the apex of this
social inequality was reached how she
as easily and slowly swung backward
until again the birth rat of female
children left a desert of splnsterhood
over any given civilised map. But in
his arguments toward the recognised
conditions which have come snd gone.
Professor Evarts has said just by the
strongest of inferences:
"The woman married early In life Is
predisposed to give birth to females;
married later In life, the predisposition
is toward tba birth of boys." And by
still further Inference: "That ambi
tious young man who may be looking
forward to his sons one dsy Joining
him In business would better marry
the woman older than himself a rea
sonably older as his sense of the ro
mantic will allow."
In his lines of reasoning the pro
fessor takes up the old philosophy In
general that In time of preponderating
male population war may be expected;
or. If not militant war, at least the war
of Industrial existence which eauses
tha engaged young couple to defer
matrimony. But whether war or in
dustrial depressions cause overbalancing-
female population In a given time,
the professor has reeourae to the age
of marriage as the factor restoring th
equilibrium. The young men go to war
or to the Industrial wall. War, espe
cially, kills Its thousands and tens of
thousands, perhaps. Returning sur
vivors. " remembering the "Girl I Left
Behind le." have choice of the younger
maidens, but refuse to be off with the
old loves and the birth rate of males
Increases In consequence.
Trofessor Evarts shows that at the
present time there are 1030 boys born
to each 1000 girls. But with a higher
death rate among the male children,
the proportion is established equally at
five years old. Thereafter, between
the fifth and fifteenth year, the death
rate mong females is slightly larger
than among the males, so that at the
present time the world has a slightly
larger male population. Which ac
counts for tho suffragist uprisings?
Or does It?
