The radio communication system his ben extended vastly. 84 additional main stations having been built dur ing tho year. Striking achievements are noted in development of ra.tio outfit for naval aircraft. Communication from machines In flight to shore station Is now possible at a distance of 2"0 miles, the leport says, while the land station can comiMunient? with a machine in air 50 mile away. Through the radio telephone the aircraft can talk to station 0 mile! away and receive verbal in structions from station 1 miles d's tant Both systems have betn em ployed with the coastal patrol nain tained by aircraft. Tables annexed to the report show that the battleship Mississippi. 12 destroyers, eight of which are 35-knot bats, nnd 14 submarines had been delivered prior to the firat of last Julr. At that time destroy-: era Nos. 70 to 34 4 inclusive were naval aircraft. Communication two being 3-knot craft. The chief difficulty to be overcome In carrying out the huge destroyer project was building the engines, yet on July 1 the driving plants of the 275 t.ots j then building wire well advance!. J Many of the vessels since have been delivered. Of the big ships, engines for flv out of eight new battleship had been done on engines for the six authorized battle cruisers and work had not much more than started on plants for three of the six author ixed scout cruiser. Submarines briildlng on July 1 numbered 10. and the tables show the engines for 2 were more than 60 per cent ready; 1 4 of them being well past the 96 prr' cent. sondiesTn" army service Stanley Thpmpxon Succumbs to Pneumonia at Rock , well Field, CaL Mrs. L.

One month before the armistice with Germany ended the war, the Ameri can navy -was operating a total of 1.959 vessels of all descriptions, of which 264 carrying 42.000 men were actively participating in the war In European waters. These figure were disclosed In the. annual report of Uear. Armiral Griffin, chief of the bureau of steam engineering. Daily expenditures of the bureau during the war year cov ered by the report exceeded $777,- 000. Admiral Griffin id the regular navy on the date of his report con sisted of 570 ships, supplemented by 93 vessels from the Coast Guard. Ughthouse Service, Coast and Geod etic Survey and Fish commission. In addition the navy was then operat ing 937 converted merchant craft, yachts and the like, end the Naval Overseas Transport service, consist ing of 2 47 Shipping Board and other supply vessels, with 112 more about to be commissioned. Construction under way for the regular navy at that time included 376 new ships of all kinds and 52 tugs. "Since the United States became a belligerent." the report states, "the mngnitude of the mechanical work of the navy, both mechanical and electrical, not only in its. actual amount but In the rapid develop ment,of facilities for Its ex-cution has been without pa1'0! for tn same period of time In the history of the world's navlfs." To keep up the fleet abroad, three repair bases were established In France, one in Great Britain, one at Gibraltar and two in the Mediter ranean. These were supplemented bv six repair ships which achieved remarkable results in repairing ves sels at sea. The report makes the first offi cial announcement regarding devel opment of the submarine detection devices and shows that American equipment for this purpose has been placed aboard both British and French naval craft. Details are not disclosed, however, the report In this connection confining itself to the following paragraph: "Previous to July 1. 1917. there were two devices for submarine de tection in service. One was the Fessenden oscillator, primarily in tended for sending and receiving underwater signs; the other was a device developed by the General Electric company. Since then eight other devices for submarine tion have been developed and made uurweu. commanding." , quantity, not only for our own navr.

Tho mo;f imrortan factor In the process of curing meat Is that of de stroying the bacterial organism which brings about decay. There are many preservatives that might be A second factor that must b re garded Is the preservation of snch ;lavor as will nake the yneat paUt able, digestible. atd otherwise fit for hi.nan food. There ar to methods or curing pork commonly used throughout the country. One is curing la btine or pickling, and the otoer Ls diy curing. The former method Is tbs more simple In that no eipense In equip ment needs to be roidd. Itefore the meat Is rired it should be thoroughly cooled. This can be d&ne by allowing the meat, after It has tx-en cut Into Its separate parts, to lie upon a table In a cm1 place where It may become thoroughly chilled, and rprinkl.ng over it a lib eral quantity of salt. Meat that has not been chilled or retains some of the animal heat Is likely I'j sour or become tainted near th . bone. This Is particularly true with Urge han.s. Ifce t.cit step lj to place the meat In barirlt. after having washed ff the salt and the bloody water, and cover it with a kolntioc mad as fol lows: Salt, eight pounds; saltpeter. two ounces; sugar, three pounds. This mixture should be dissolved in four gallons of water. Increae the quantity of solution, maintaining these proportions in keeping with the amount of meat to be cured. This brine should I strong enough to float a fresh egg. Another solution may be made and used In this way: Rlt, 30 pounds; saltpeter, fir otmies; -brown u;ar, 10 pouff3s, or molasses, one gallon. Dissolve this mixture in 20 gallons of water Th!s will.be sufficient for 400 to 600 pounds of meat. Put the solution In a large kettle and let it come to a boil, then take from the fire and sktm. When cold pour tbe solution tmto the meat and let it stand five weeks. The larger pieces will re quire a little lonrer time ani th smaller ones not so long. Do not put in any pieces that are tainted or have bKin to sour, for Ihey are I5, tfss and will spoil all the places in tho barrel If left a week or 10 days with them. It Is very Important that every part of the meat hhonld !- well covered with the brine' 10-pound ham should stand In this i solution alMtut 40 days 'and a Im pound ham. 0 days. Tho brine should be examined every week, as meat. If th brine found to be sour remove all of it. wash the mat and the batrvl and then make a fresh solution. If a mold appears a the surface, skim It off. The nest step Is to haag the meal p and let it dry for threw or losr daja, wh-a it will be ready for smokiag. Another method Is knows as dry rating. After the meat baa beta thoroughly cooled and all the aausul heat gone, placw eaib, piece of meat os a clean, bleached pleca of me!: a cloth about a yard squirt, akia a.de down, oa top of the msslia aaj ap ply the following: To a lS-poal baa take one tea cup of granulated sugar, ( tea cups of salt, two tablespoons of black pepper, and one lablcspoa f cayeane pppr.
