THE HIGH FLYERS
Practical air navigation at alti
tudes of eight miles or more is pre
dicted for the not very ditsant fu
ture by conservative aircraft engin
eers, and actual plans lor such devel
opment are being1 seriously consider
ed, according to Popular Science.
At least two aviators have already
attained an altitude of approximate
ly eight miles, at which the temp
erature is between 60 and 7U degrees
below zero. Py means of balloons it
has been determined that beyond
this altitude it does not get any cold
er, so the problem of temperature
might be readily solved.
Owing to the rarity of the atmos
phere at such heights, an artifical
supply of oxygen is necessary, and
such has been carried by the pioneers j
in exploring the upper air. This '
rare atmosphere also presents anoth
er problem, in that resistance to the
airplane propeller is reduced, making j
more powerful motors necessary ir.
order to keep the craft aloft.
This does not appear to b^ an in
superable difficulty.
A young German engineer pro
poses to build a plane to navigate
these upper reaches of the air at a
speed of more than 650 miles an
hour. Recently the famous plan?\
designer, Sikorski, predicted "a r.ew
type of airplane with highly super
charged motors and an inclosed cabin
with air kept under approximately
normal pressure to permit flying nt
high altitudes with speeds of say V)0
to 500 or more miles ar. hour.1'
Incredible as it seems now. no ono
can say with certainty that it cai. not
be done. - '

MEaICAN HE AN BEETLE
CONTROL
Mexican Bear. Beetles are beginn
ing their destructive work through
out the county and immediate steps
should be taken for their control and
suppression. These beetles are about
a quarter inch long, brown . with 16
dots on their back, 8 dots on each
wing.
These beetles may be controlled by
dusting with a mixture of Magnes
ium Arsenate with lime or a mixture
of Calcium Arsenate and lime. If Cal
cium Arsenate and lime are used mix
these ingredients thoroughly in the
following proportions: Calcium
Arsenate 1 part, Hudrated lime 9
parts. If Magnesium Arsenate and
lime are used mix these thoroughly
in the following proportion: Mag
nesium Arsenate, 3 parts, Hydrated
lime, 5 parts. There is less danger
of burning with Magnesium arsenate
than with Calcium arsenate. Dust
both the upper and under sides of
leaves every 10 days to 2 weeks af
ter appearance Of the beetlo until
they are brought under control.

ME AND MY DADDY WENT
A-FISHING
By ERMINE R. MADDOX
Me and My. Daddy went a-fishing
Down on old Twenty Creek
And how my hart was full of wishing
For if I didn't catch any I'd be sure
to weep.
And before I got to tho lano gate
On an old root I stumped my toe
Fell down and spilled half the bait
Which made mo so mad I started nor
to go.
Put I changed my mind and curbed
my tongue
As Dad was depending on mo for
the bait
And to catch him I had to really run
For he'd be sure to fuss if he had to
wait.
Still he went on and took the best
place
Telling me to go below
So I went down to the old Mill race
Mad again to think he would beat
me so.
Then on Sherman's foot-log I took a
seat
Pausing a minute my poor toe to
nurs?
Still determined My Daddy's fishing
to beat
Even if it did hurt so bad I wanted to
curs
(So I fished all afternoon long
Getting just one little bite
(And would have fished until early
dawn
Hut with the spooks I had fear nf a
fight.
This one little fish clung to my hook
Until I got him almost to tho bank
Then he bid me farewell and fluttered
back to the brook,
And now, even among Amateur fish
erman I take a rear rank.

GIZZARD INSPECTION
In a certain district of Columbia,
South America, every chicken killed
must be presented to government au
thorities for inspection.
This is not a health measure, such
as governs the sanitary slaughter of
food animals in this country, but is a
requirement to prevent the chicken
owner from coming into unauthoriz
ed possession of any stray emeralds
^which may happen to bo found in the
bird's gizzard.
For in that section is located the
only emerald producing territory in
| the southern continent, and towls of
ten pick up the precious stones in
preference to ordinary gravel.
An American company is conduct
ing emerald mining operations in
Columbia, using the primitive meth
ods employed by the early Spaniards,
because tho region is ho inaccessible
as to make the transportation of
modern equipment too costly.
However, recovery of emeralds by
the chicken method is only a minor
phaso of tho enterprise.

EDISON MARSHALL
Author of
"Forlorn Island"
Edison Marshall, the author of
the unusual story, "Forlorn Is
land/' which we are to publish se
rially, is especially well known in
the field of American literature.
Aslted for a brief sketch of him
self and his work, he has given us
the following:
"I come naturally by a love of
adventure and far places. The
Marshalls arrived from England
in 1654. They always kept close
to the frontier ? Illinois by 1830,
California, in 1849; and only came
back when there was a chance to
get in on a war.
"I was born in Indiana Father
had returned from California, and
was editor and publisher of a news
paper in 1894. We all went out
to Oregon in 1907, and I didn't
get back till the war. Getting a
taste for outdoor adventure in the
big Oregon wood*, I have since
hunted big game all over Alaska;
the Aleutians, in the Arctic sea;
the Siberian Coast; Africa, and
southern Asia.
* "I wrote 'The Heart of I.ittle
Shikara' twelve years ago, before
I had ever been in India.
"I am the author of a good
many novels of romantic adven
ture, among the best being "The
Snowshoe Trail," "The Mission
ary, " and "The Doctor of Lone
some River," an I "Forlorn Is
land." I will never write anything
but romance, as I believe it is the
highest form of fiction, and it is
what I like."
Mr. Marshall might have added
that he won the O. Henry memori
al prize for the best short story in
1921; that he endowed the Kdison
Marshall annual short story con
test at the University of Oregon,
his alma mater; that he has been
very much of a world traveler to
out of the way places including
Alaska, ^Siberia, Central Africa,
Indo-China, India and numerous
other sections. His home is Seven
Cables, Augusta, Ga. ?s
