WEATHER STATION
OPENS SEPTEMBER 1
Rapid Progress is Being Made on
Central Weather Plant on the
Drexel Farm.
ONE NEW BUILDING NEEDED
Work at the. new government aero
loglcal station, four miles northeast
of Elkhorn. la progressing rapidly,
and It will be In condition for active
observations by September 1, says,
Local Forecaster Welsh. The fine
farm buildings on the Drexel farm
will be utilised and only one nfldl
tlonal building, will be needed. This
1h to house the reeling apparatus
used In sending up and drawing down
the big box kites.
"Often tho box kites are sent to a
height of four miles." said Colonel Welsh,
"and that mesna that ten miles of piano
wire is out. They exert a strong pull,
often e'lusl to 2W pounds, so It Is neces
sary to have electric motors to pull the
kites down.
"One reason for locating the station
some distance from the city Is that the
kites sometimes break loose, in which
event, the falling of the plsno wlie over
live wires would constitute a source of
great danger.
"The government balloons used In ob
servation work arc bought from Russia,
which Is the only country where they
l have the secret of making a balloon
that will go sufficiently high for our
purpose without bursting. Then are
records of these baloons reaching a height
of twenty-four miles. At that height,
owing to the rarity of the atmosphere,
they must expand to tremendous propor
tions. "E.'aeh balloon Is equipped with a
meteorograph which ie-oida atmospheric
pressure, wind velocity, humidity and
temperature. In the balloons this Is
fastened to a parachute and when the
balloon finally reaches a height no great
that It hursts the meteorograph is wafted
safely to terra flrma on the paruchute.
A notice Is on the Instrument telling the
finder where to send It and It Is already
franked for transmission through the
malls. A small reward la given to each
finder. None of these metoerographa has
ever been lost."
Some confusion has resulted because
mall to the new station goes via tho
little town of Washington, Neb. Mall
clerks, seeing the weather bureau en
velope and getting a glimpse of "Wash
ington" have sent a number of these let
ters Into the cast-bound mall bags.

What a happy thought prompted that decision 1
He wasn't his "old self" at all and try to mask it
as he might, hit face showed only too well how
pootly he felt. And so when a friend with con
viction born of experience spoke of Sanatogen,
they "put him on Sanatogen."
Sanatngrn combining the tissue-building properties of
FOOD with the invigotaling qualities of a TONIC
rejuvenated his appetite, improved his digestion, brought
rest to liiai nervei, made good the over-drafts upon hi energies
and little by little brought back that old-tim vigor snd

Perhaps you have not yet had this happy thought perhaps
you haven't yet "put him on Ssnstogen."
Then simply lrt u tell you this :
Over 21,000 physicians hsve testified in
writing to the vslue of Sanatogen sftcr
having observed its effect! in daily prac

men and women whose very names
must be convincing people who know
from personal experience the restorative
