How We Get Official Time
________
Ì
In a May number of "The World
T jday” an article on "The United
States Naval Observatory” tells how
the astronomers at Washington give
us exact time.
In the first place
the Observatory has a standard clock
which is carefully kept in a special
’d» * ■ ' ■
underground room. This clock is
constantly compared with the true
time derived from stars or sun. Au
instrument called a transit, or in the
case of this Observatory, a meridian
circle, is used for this work The
meridian circle is a telescope of in >1
erate size and power, mounted o 1
beirings or trunnions, which point
to true east and west The telescope
therefore, points at the north and
south, or the great circle of the
heavens between north and south
Now, observations for one hundred
and fifty years have provided astron
omers with many tables and data
We know to a hair just the exaci
instant when a certain star will cross
th * meridian of a given place. So.
it at the instant it does cross lhe
meridian, we note the time lhe clo .k
gives for that meridian we kno v tin
error of the clock. Of course in
determining the rate of gain or loss
in the standard clock observation-
are made every day on the Sun,
when it is visible, anil every night,
not on one but a dozen stars. i'll,
angle of the position of ibis meridian
circle is tead by four microscopes on
a silver scale so finely divided that
the naked eye can not see the divi
sions. Now you see how this stand
ard clock is corrected by the start.
But how do yon and I, and th-
trains, get the time of the clock?
Electrically corrected bvf this stan I-
•rd clock are two time-sending
c'ocks in the mtin building of the
Observatory. There are two so tint
if one breaks down time signals m ty
be sent qut by the other. Every
dty, just before noon, the trunk lines
of the Postal and Western Uni in
k
telegraph systems are cleate I of all
other business and the sounders in
the main offices beat out seconds.
Just ten seconds before noon tIn
sounders all stop beating seconds
and then on the stroke of noon they
chatter hard.
Noon is here at
Washington. Then the fine clo< ks

work it through the Commercial
Club. Of course this is all right in
a way. but these same people should
be just as enthusiastic over helping
the club along in other matters as
they are in tlv ir own affairs.
The Commercial Club can do
many things for Bandon if we wilj
all pull together. There should be
from 25 to 50 out at every meeting
instead of from 10 to 25, With the
larger number there would always be
a possibility of going ahead with new
propositions which a smaller num er
cannot accomplish
Let us boo->t for the Commercial
Club; it means a greater Bandon

still convinced that it is not doing
anything, then perhaps you could
suggest something that it could do
to improve the town and adjacent

country.
Hill a Good Prophet.
Mr. Link W. I Lil, says: "We
look lor a greit rush to Oregon in
the next year or two. 1 certainly
believe that the increise will be
much more rapid in the next two or
three years th in it fi is been in tiie
list to.”
Mr. Hill has traveled over onlv
a portion of Oiegon; if lie sll mid
come to Coos comity and then goon
down into Ctirrv county, he would
be more convinced th in ever of the
greitness of Oregon, for here is
certainly one of the b st sections ot
the state; but even after havi ig
traveled oyer part of Oregon, Mr.
Hili says: "From what we have
seen, and my experience in othei
states, I can safely say 4h.1t Oregon
offers greater op|>ortunities than any
other state to homeseekers in the
clacs of land, climate or ch iracter of
soil th it may be desired.”
There you are homeseekers. This
is truth and comes from a man who
knows, as he has traveled over a big
section of country. Come to Ore

that tiie calf is fed out of should be
kept clean. Ity using a foul pail it is
I possible to give a calf indigestion.
The most common mistake farmers
make in feeding skimmilk is that of
overfeeding. One gallon of skiinmilk
twice a day is enough for any calf,
loo
no matter how large it is. A little
more can be given to a calf more than
three months old without getting over
the danger line, but be careful, A calf

from the udder without dire injury,
250 00 but when it gorges itself on skimmilk
it will pay tiie ¡»entity in suffering and
may turn up its hoofs. No more is
required because the milk has been
skimmed than if it were whole. See
that the calf gets just about the same
3^ 00 amount each day.
