Aviation Flight Records Are Checked by Bureau of Standards Barographs

Sealed Instrument Tells Altitude and Time of All Air Movements. BY RODNEY DUTCHER NEA Service Writer WASHINGTON, June 27.—Aviators kept right on setting new records for altitude, distance, endurance and what-not, but if it were not for the barograph these records wouldn’t count. The barograph is the small instrument which proves that the rec-ord-breaking pilots aren’t fibbing. If Lindbergh or Chamberlin had stopped in Newfoundland for a rest claimed to have made a nonstop flight, the tracings on the barograph’s little chart would have given them away. One of the very latest things that happens when a flier starts off across the Atlantic or up for anew altitude record is the sealing of the barograph. Secretary Seals Machines Most of this sealing has been done by Carl F. Schory, secretary of the contest committee of the National Aeronautic Association, which, in cooperation with the Federation Aeronautique Internationale, of which it is a member, determines the authenticity of records. ' Schory, for instance, sealed the barographs on the Spirit of St. Louis, the Columbia—Chamberlin’s plane, and the Sikorsky plane in which Rene Fonck failed so tragically to start the New York-to-Paris hop last year. Is Simple Mechanism The barograph is a steel box eight or ten inches long, with delicate but simple mechanism which records both altitude and the duration of the flight. At one end of the steel bottom, of the box, slowly revolves an upright drum, on which is rolled a chart. Resting on the drum is a finely pointed pen, the other end of which is attached to a series of vacuumed diaphragms at the others end of the frame. As the plane attains altitude, the atmosphereis pressure lessens. The diaphragms expand, controlling the pen and pushing it upward on the

SEE ELECTRIC CROPS Scientists Amazed by Swiss Farmers’ Methods. Bu Y F.A Service WARRENTON, Mo., June 27 Eectrical scientists of the country are making pilgrimages to the farm of Henry Surber, near here, where crops are growing with the aid of electricity picked out of the air. At least, this is the assertion of Surber himself, a native of Switzerland, who brought this idea from Europe. Scientists are doubtful, but there is the farm and there are the crops —grapes, apples and other farm products in greater abundance and better quality than those on any other farm in this section. The Missouri State board of agriculture is making a study of Surber’s “plant,” with a possible view of giving other farmers advantage of his methods. STRESS HEALTH WORK Flower Mission Society Expects to Hire Trained Leader. Mrs. Frank W. Wood, mission president, today announced the Flower Mission Society will specialize on families in which health relief problems are involved. A trained social worker to visit families and direct volunteer workers likely will be employed. Conferences resulted in the combination of Flower Mission headquarters with the Family Welfare Society, 335 N. Peennsylvarya St.

drum, making a tracing the while. When the plane is standing on the ground the drum shows a horizontal line and, of course, if the platne comes down to the ground after a flight the fact is duly recorded by the sinking pen. The drum makes a revolution ever hour, every two hours or whatever time is desired. To seal this machine after the cover is dropped down over it, the same method is used as in sealing a trunk for shipment. A string or wire is tied around it and the seal welded on so that it cannot be removed without detection. In fight, the barograph Is suspended on springs and rubber shock absorbers so that the vibration will not affect its record. After a record fight, the barograph is generally taken to the Bureau of Standards here for calibration by W. G. Brombacher. The Federation Aeronautique In- -

TEST ‘JUICE 1 ON FARM Economy of Electricity to Be Ascertained. By NEA Service MADISON. Wis., June 27.—A meter on every electirc appliance on two test farms in Wisconsin is the way the state is trying to discover just how economical the use of electricity for farming can be. Tabulations already taken, after a half year’s operation, show not only that there is a tendency to make the electrical appliances pay for themselves, but that a profit is actually being shown in a variety of farm operations. The test is being conducted under the direction of the University of Wisconsin and the electric service industry on two farms. Meter readings are taken every month, and the farmers are cooperating by keeping accurate tab of the work performed by each apparatus. These Three Bu Tmir * Special EVANSVILLE, Ind..

In her territory, which is all of southern Colorado and northern New Mexico, Miss Yund is selling twice as much flour by her method as her predecessor did. Two years ago Miss Yund won the State vocal contest. Before becoming a flour saleswoman she had filled several singing contracts on vaudeville circuits. Besides that she had acquired the art of baking. When she goes into a town, she offers to sing at civic, lodge or church entertainments which may be planned during her stay. Then she mixes and bakes some of her samples into pastries and serves them at the entertainments. “After that,” says Miss YuAd. “it’s not so hard to say it with flours to the local merchants and get their names on the dotted line.”
