Tho Urltlsh nrmy plans to fight the German gas attacks with fire. This Is the Hellenic recommended by n committee of Inventors headed by Sir Hiram Mnx im, who has designed a simple ap paratus which tho government Is now testing. The object of the apparatus is to cause largo and rapidly spreading fires by means of specially-designed Incendiary bombs thrownln tho path of tho advancing gas at a distance of several hundred yards. Uy this means, since the heating of tho air must cause an upward curient, it Is expected to drive tho gas up out ot harm's way. Sir Hiram's explanation ot tho scheme Is ns follows: "Tho Gorman gas at ono ntmos phoro ot pressure is two and n half times as heavy as air. In escaping into the nir it very iiulckly becomes mixed with n lnrgo autintlty or air, so that by tho time It reaches our trenches It Is, ns a rule, less than J por cent heavier than tho sur rounding air; thnt is, it Is extreme ly light ns compared with tho nir, but it is quito strong enough to piovo fatal. In most cases wo find tho nil thnt has only one-thousandth pnrt of chlorine Is tho ono thnt has done tho most harm. "It occurred to mo somo months ngo that, If a flro could ho produc ed between tho gas nnd our trenches the rapid upward movoment of tho air would tako tho chlorine along with It, nnd this is quito truo. Tho bombs that I mndo were to bo thrown by hand, but it was found that, In order to bo thrown any dls tnneo, they had to bo made quito small, and, moreover, they could not bo thrown ns tar as tho officers wished to throw thorn. I dellvored 100 to tho government for oxporl inontul purposos. A fow of these hnvo been tosted, nnd It wns found that the fire should ho greater and ADVERTISED AT SI.iM) A IN MAICSHFIELD SAC It Wheat is Also Lower Than It lias ISeen Pilces Are Cuming Don n Flour nnd wheat Is lower than It has beou this season on Coos liny.
