diricibles to roicn as queens of the
sk iea.
Kin lit hundred workmen nt the
Oaodyeur-S&eppelln dork.. half of
them making part nnd the others
putting them in place, are breath
intj life into the Inert man of fab
ric and metal,
A major bit of work now begun
Jji eloihiniff tho sekelton lattloo
work with a cotton (Irons, a cover
ing fashioned from fabric panels
nearly eiuht rt square.
Altiiiiiiitim Over All.
Th esquares; are being laeed on.
Where the section come together
narrow tape will be summed on to
make the entire covering- nmooth.
Over a.11 will ku coatings ot "dope"
and aluminum powder. , g
These will shrink the fabric
tightly against the framework,
making a smooth $urfcc to lev-sen
wind resistance and reflect the
sunn rays that might detoriorn to
the covering and cause the Interior
lifting g a so to expand.
The dirigible will he tho first In
histtory with ga celU not fash
ioned from gold-beaters skin. Of
the 12 huge cells which will house
the litfing gas helium half are
of rubberized fabric and half of a
gelatin latex developed by Cond
ylar scientists.
Motor Cars In Ship.
These cells, are being- fashioned
in the balloon room at the 'dock.
Ten will be installed between the
main rins girders, which stand 74
feet apart. One will 'ft between
the front ring and the noee of the
ship, while a cone-shaped cell will
go Jn the tapering tail.
Motor cars are being built In the
ship, and the eight engine, now
being tested, later will be fitted
In place. The framework Is com
plete except for the tail surfaces
by which the ;hlp will he. con
trolled. They will le hoisted in
place when complete.
In dressing tho skeleton a T-
shaped opening will be left under,
a storage compartment, which will)
hold five completely asembled air
planes. Tho compartment will be
fitted with collapsible doorw. i
through whli'h the planes can be
lowered for flight or hoisted for
interior storage.
Tho dirigible, named the Akron,
is scheduled to bo completed near
the middle of June. It will have
a :as volvimo of S.SOn.ftitn cubic
feet, nearly twice that of the f.raf
Zeppelin.
The huMder.s expect that nearly
a month will be H,xnt in prelim
inary flights before the ship will
ne uirnco over to tne navy ror ap-j
provai.

says that for the Individual dairy
man a careful analysis of produc
tion costs is of greater liuportaneo
than ever. Quite number f oro
pon dairymen have already rcdmcd
their costs until now they are dp j
to vhow some profit eveit inr dor

lOven thoiinh the whole country

lirandt believes that the wise day
iiidii will do it in his own herd,
for the largest dnle factor-in cost
U the yield per cow. For the same
reaNons, expansion of dairy herd j
onsv control arc important now.
Any expansion In the dairy indus

confined to localities where pro

Generally, when you need one tire, you
need two. Many accidents are caused by
one bad tire, or by trying to squeeze
just a few more miles out of tires with
smooth treads or weakened side-walls.
For Safety's Sake, you need "Balanced
Traction". . . good treads and equal
strength in both opposite tires. To in
duce you to buy in pairs, we offer you
