Two or throe years ago while "On Our Way" we had the pleasure of making the acquaintanfe of one of the most interesting men we ever met. A man who had had charge of some of the biggest works in this country and a pioneer in the development and manufacture of the diesel engine. Along about the close of the last century after having ihis college education he entered the employ of Adolph Busch, who was much interested In the diesel and for Mr. Busch bo built the first one in America. Mr. Busch sot aside $4,500,000.00 to be used in experimental work and development of the engine and this man, Glen E. Bowen, was put in charge and he remained in charge until the engine reached a state of mear perfection. He built and installed many power plants and water works for cities, towns and corporations. II also built and installed the great power and electric plant for the Panama Worlds Fair at San Francisco in 1915. Shortly after that, owing to some differences over the design of a new engine, the Busch people were about to build and put on the market he resigned, a little while Mo. During the first World War the Fulton people got a contract from the U. S. Government for five enormous guns for the approximate price of $400,000.00 each, or nearly $2,000,000.00 for the five and Mr. Bowen was placed in charge of the work. One of ilwse guns was completed and ready for delivery as soon ias the proper tests could be made but before, this could be done the armistice was signed and the war was over. The lathe used in making this gun ihad a swing of 102 inches amd a bed 125 feet long. The head stock alone weighed 85 tons and the lathe complete weighed 165 tons. The largest lathe ever built. The gun itself was 84 Inches in diameter and 75 feet long with a bore of 22 inches and shot a projectile weighing two tons and had a range of over 75 miles. After trie war was over the government cancelled the contract making a liberal settlement with the company. A wave of disarmament swept over the world land all nations agreed to disarm and this government in order to show its good faith in the agreement, among other things, ordered the, Fulton people to destroy the gun. Some job in itself. A large derrick was built a,nd large weights, of many tons, were lifted to its top and dropped on the gun until it was broken into pieces which could be put into crusibles and melted up Mr. and Mrs. Dan Davis, of visited at the ihome of The Livestock committee men their grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. gathered in the Courthouse Tues- O.
