Kilgore. of 2011 North i Sixth street, who has been a practic , in physician of the city for the past twenty years, has been commission ed an assistant surgeon with the rank of Lieutenant Junior Grade "of the United States Naval Reserve force to report to-morrow in Vir ginia. 'Dr. Kilgore, who has been unusual ly successful in his profession, was graduated from the Mlllersvtlle fitate Normal School and afterward from the Medical Department of the Uni versity of Pennsylvania. He was elected president of the Medical So ciety of Dauphin county In 1916 after serving that society for three years as secretary^ FARM TRACTORS DID BIG WORK Secretary Pattoil Is Pleased With Wonderful 'Cross- River Demonstration Secretary Patton, of the State De partment of Agriculture, .this morn ing expressed his congratulations through the Telegraph to every trac tor manufacturer and agent who, par ticipated in the plowing demonstra tions at Mursh Run, showing "splen did spirit in sticking to the end in spite of adverse conditions." The secretary said that there had been more efficient plowing than was recorded at any previous test, in cluding the recent one at Salina, Mo., .and that the Harrlsburg event will have most significant results all over the United States. "It Is an industry yet in its infancy" he pointed out "but our records show that while one year ago only 600 machines were in uso in the state; 'now the number is something over over 2,200. One of the most significant features of . the gathering was the number of men from all parts of the Union who sought agencies for the tractor, and i( is certain that very soon nearly every automobile establishment will have its tractor department, so that the farmer can be in immediate touch with the product." Five o'clock last evening saw the finish of thti demonstration and while several days must elapse be fore the Department of Agriculture can make out the precise records it can be said to-day that a total of 75 acres were plowed. The quota orig onally planned was 102, but rain sad ly disrupted the schedule. On Friday the hotels here were jammed with farmers who were disappointed in not being able to look on during Saturday. However, a great many saw enough to convince them and the universal pledge was heard: "I can not do without this machine." Ol' the 75 plowed acres 45 were disced and seeded with prime wheat and Secretary Patton, just to show that the old Keystone state is there with all kinds of loyalty, to-day turn ed over two tractors to the govern ment and the Marsh Rljn folks will go ahead and cultivate many more acres, so that a big crop of wheat is insured for next year. The first machine to drop out was the Reed, which only took a couple turns last Thursday and then with drew, after an accident. On Satur day both entries of tho International Harvester Company withdrew and al so the Waterloo. These entries therefore will have no records for Monday and Tuesday. Tlie big tei* of the whole demon stration was on Monday afternoon when the machines which remained in the competition were sent into a two-year old corn stubble field that was overgrown with weeds from throe to six feet Tiigh. In addition the field had a number of large gullies and stones almost as large as a man were turned up. The trac tors which tackled this field made remarkable progress nnd showed really the almost endless capability of the modern tractor as it has been perfected ,to-day. Army officers and many farmers were skeptical about the tractors' ability to work in this corn stubble field, but when the ma chines which tackled it got through they were convinced that the tractor could work under severe circum stances. The making up of the records, a very precise task is in the hand of William Douglas, statestician of the Department of Ariculture, and he emphasized to-day that in publishing these later, each tractor will get credit for the particular conditions of the field in which each worked, for conditions were by no means identi cal. Two British Flyers Take 65 Germans; Stay in Air to Drive Them to Camp London, Sept. 25.'—Two British aviators, flying low in one machine brought about the surrender of sixty five Germans, and without leaving their plane shepherded tho party across No Man's Band to the Brit ish lines, according to a tale from the battlefield made public yester day. The pilot and his observer had -been attacked from a trench and sunken road. The pilot dived and replied to the enemy fire with his machine gun, killing one and wound ing three. The Germans in a panic ceased firing and hoisted a white handkerchief. As there wore no British Infuntry in that neighborhood, the pilot de scended to within fifty feet of the ground and ordered the Germans out of the trenches, circling around them to insure that none escaped. All were safely brought In and hand ed over to the nearest British troops. The aviators then resumed their patrol. 13IHEEiaa helps you to get jour glasses now while pay ing for them at intervals CHILDREN'S eyes should not be neg lected.
