1 The concentration of the airactivl-
tics of the United States civilian, mili
tary and naval within the discretion of

' 2 That the agency thus created be
charged with the full responsibility, of
placing and maintaining this country, in
tne front rank of nations in the de
velopment and utilization of aircraft for
national security and in the . advance
ment of the civilian areial transportation

3 That this governmental organization

sponsible directly to the secretary for

(c) Five of more divisional heads, act

(d) An air council- advisory in- char
acter, which shall be constituted by the

The eeneral Dronositlon of th mission
is to create a new bfanch of ;t!ie cabinet
,to function- similarly to the British air
ministry. On this point. Secretary of
War. Baker, In making the report pub

"The mission has. In my judgment.

Their efficiency and that of the other
branches of the service depend upon the
most .intense rvnd constant associated
training and a separation of the air
service from the army or navy would
require coordination of their activities
In time of war. whereas, effectiveness in
military operations rests in the concen
tration and singleness of authority, ma
chinery and purpose."
Mr. Baker clearly indicates that the
joint army and navy board Is already at
work reporting on the best means of
creating and maintaining a service and

General Mine Strike
Given Unon Sanction
Pittsburg, Kan.. Aug. 13. (U.- P.)
Permission to call a general strike of
miners 'of Missouri and Kansas has been
granted by John I Lewis, acting inter
national president of the Mine Workers
of America, it .was learned today.
Klamath Falls, Aug. 13. More than
200 farmers and their families in 38 au
tomobiles journeyed from one to an
other of the numerous- crop demonstra
tions organized by 13. II. Thomas, coun
ty agent, . and W. W. Johnston, field
agent of Oregon Agricultural college.
By 10:30 o'clock the road in front of
the Harry Telford ranch was linedwlth
machines and the demonstration' of a
combination silage and hay cutter by
H.Vatton of the John Deere Plow com
pany of Portland was held.
Results of chopping the alfalfa show a
total increase in feeding returns of from
10 to 30 per cent under varying condi
tions. Headed by Thomas, the farmers mo
tored to the E. E. McClay ranch, to see
a sulphur demonstration on alfalfa. Mc
Clay had applied the sulphurs with a
land plaster spreader, using 100 pounds
an acre, which ,has given him an In
crease in yietd of , three quarters of a
ton for the first cutting.
SULPHUR USK BENEFICIAL
The Altamont ranch was the next
stop, and in the shade of old poplars
was spread a wonderful picnic dinner.
Professor Hyslop of the Oregon Agri
cultural college spoke on results of ex
periments with alfalfa in the state, and
recommended the Grim or Baltic va
rieties. . .
O. M. Plummer of the Pacific Inter
national Livestock exposition of Port
land' made a plea for better stock, bet
ter homes and better babies, as well as
for the International show. - It Is sur
prising how little pure bred stock there
is in this country that has been a large
producer for years, he said.
Professor E. L. Potter told of the re
sults of livestock feeding experiments
conducted at the Union experiment sta
tion .nd especially recommended 'alfalfa
and silage. Ke outlined the necessity
and opportunity for breeding ' better
stock to supply the ranges with good
sires. Similar countries have - made
themselves wealthy in just lhls-way, he
said. . V . -' . .
At the Frank McCornack ranch, a sul
phur demonstration- showed an Increase
of over a ton an acre from two cut
tings. ' He had applied "only 80 pourrtis
an acre of the sulphur. Sulphur costs
less than 3 cents a pound in Klamath
Falls.
SUNFLOWER TIELD HEATT
McCornack Is one of the few breeders
of pure bred cattle and sheep In the
county. He has good stock and good
feed for them. Another, demonstration
on his ranch showedthat alsike and
timothy far outyielded the native swamp
growth and was better, feed; While this
is not yet weighed up, a conservative
estimate is five tons an acre for one
cutting. This is on diked land reclaimed
at considerable expense and now en
dangered by a power dam upon which
construction is soon expected to begin.
The party next visited the ranch of
II. A. Talbot, a pioneer in this part of
the country in sunflower silage work.
He has dug out a pit silo from a hill
side next; his barn - and has several
acres of fine sunflowers surely good for
10 to 12 tons an acre. He will dig more
silos before another year," as this crop,
or peas and oats, or even farm waste as
weeds when siloed and fed with' alfalfa
hay will carry a lot. of stock.
