Miocene Age Fossils Found in Colof&Sb Chicago.--The fossil of a remote ancqjftor of the common morning glory that bloomed 21,000,000 years ago, and the feather of a bird of the same period have been discovered by the Field museum geological expedition in the vicinity of Florigant, Colo. The deposits from which the fossils were obtained are of the Miocene age and have yielded a number of previously unknown species of prehistoric insect and plant fossils. Up Nights U&S Nights.

New York.--Mrs. Maude Radford Warren, writer and traveler, returned recently from a three months' Journey within the Arctic circle, in the northwestern part of Canada with Aklavik as her he&dqnarters. She traveled alone, with the aid of Indian and Eskimo guides, except when she went by airplane, the most comfortable means of trarel in the Northwest Of strong physique and indifferent to hardships, Mrs. Warren found the life of the frontier villages the "most thrilling adventure" she had known since her work in first aid stations during the war, but does not recommend the trip to the average woman traveler. "Bulldogs," or moose flies, as big as wasps and twice as voracious, impaired the pleasure of sleeping out of doors, she confessed. Influence Wiping Out Rao* Mrs. Warren returns an enthusiastic admirer of the Tvskimo, a cheerful and industrial people, but she is alarmed lest they vanish from the Northwest within 60 years. "The Eskimos are dying off in great numbera from the ravages of influenza and other diseases brought in by the white man," she said. "They have learned to eat white man's food Instead of the good caribou meat and fish which used to be their chief diet. This summer I saw them eating soggy pancakes covered with syrup three times a day, "The Indians have an arrangement with the Canadian government by which they 'take treaty,' becoming the wards of the government, and are thus guaranteed against starvation. But the Eskimos, being a more independent race, have no such arrangement. The white man could not survive within the Arctic circle without the Eskimo and the Indian." Village Life Simpl*. ^ Mrs. Warren found village life"In Aklavlk charmingly simple for one who longed to escape the trivialities of modern America, but confessed she would not care to endure it permanently. • "In the winter there is no amusement at all, not even a pool table, in the entire village," she said. "They read all winter, after their day's work is done. The newspapers are brought In during the summer and they save them, in order, end read them later day by day. "There are seven nuns in the village and five other white women connect d with the Anglican missions. There is also one American woman who runs the restaurant "The people in Aklavlk prefer the long lonesome winter to the uncertainties of summer, when strangers come poking into their peaceful village, and inspectors and all sorts of ofllcials disturb their routine."

Cream coded Immediately after being separated has a better quality and should bring a higher price than cream which does run receive this Inexpensive attention. H»-<nriliiiK to dairy experts of Mlchiguu State college. Cream Is best cooled In a deep setting csn where the teu>|K-r;: ire can be kept low.

Both cans enn he cooled the most eustly by setting them tn cold, running water. Cream can be kept In good condition by placing a tank, barrel, or tub on the pipe line between the well and the stock watering tank. In this way a water supply Is provided at little expense for plptng. The tank for the cream cans should be covered with a roof to keep off the sun's heat Cold water cools cream much faster than cold air. In hot weather the can should be covered with a wet blanket while being taken to the station. Well kept cream can be tested for butterfat more easily and accurately than cream poorly conditioned. Highgrade butter cannot be made from low quality cream. Cream properly cooled will add dollars to the cream check. Diy Skim Milk for Calf Is Found Satisfactory Sellers of whole milk are always Interested in methods of feeding calves for herd replacements. The Ohio station reports a recently completed feeding trial with calves In which dry skim milk was fed liberally together with other feeds. Four lots of colves were fed as follows: Lot 1 received whole milk for five months; Lot 2 received whole milk for a week and a half, then gradually changed to skim milk which was fed until the end of the fifth month; Lot 8 was ted exactly like Lot 2 except that reconstituted dry skim milk was used in place of skim milk; Lot 4 received whole milk for a week and a half, WBB then changed to reconstituted dry skim milk fed until the end of the sixth week when a grain mixture containing a high proportion of dry skim milk was started. This grain mixture was fed until the calves were five months old. The results indicate that satisfactory growth and economical gains may be had from feeding as with Lot 4. Adequate Feed for Dry Cows Quiite Important It Is just as Important to adequately feed the good dry cow as to meet the nutrient requirements of the production of good cows in milk. It is easier to properly fit a dry cow for her forthcoming work than to attempt to build up depletions after calving. It is much better for the cow and certainly it Is, In the long run, better tor the bank account of her owner. The experiences of good dairymen are abundant tn supporting the value of feeding dry cows adequately. Those who have been neglecting this Important part of feeding management will find in it a means of increasing their net Incomes through leal use of feeds. Dairy Facts Oats and corn make ration for calvea. a good grain Dairy cattle selected tor «AMt should be well fed, fitted, and taught to lead. Condition and behavior count tremendop]? la the Judged eft I ma - tk*. • • *. * A sflo on ft ifve-stock farm may lie helpful as a storage place for Immature crops in poor crop seasons and as a storage for surplus crops la good years. • • • In selecting a bull if the records of his sisters are available they are practically as good a measure of his transmitting ability as the records of his own daughters. • • • • Beginning with the fall calves it will be a safe plan to keep the calves from the best cows in anticipation of the demand for good dairy heifers that will occur about the time those calves will be of producing age. The efforts of the tuberculosa eradication work among farmers Is given credit for a 20 per cent decline of tuberculosis In market swine at the large meat-paqking centers. • « • The utensils must be clean and as nearly sterile as possible. For this all pails, dippers, strainers, coolers, et<u, should be rinsed with cold of lukewarm water, washed thoroughlyv with hot water, containing some washing powier and then scalded «rlth boiling hot water, or steamed or sterilized by using chemicals. Experiments S>ia to Justify Prediction. Watiilngton.--New investlgatlofta Into possibilities of the short-wave, highpower vacuum tube give hope of producing radio waves which will do the family cooking, provide wireless illumination for homes, reduce pain and cure disease, according to Dr. Willis R. Whitney, director of the General Electric research laboratories. Simplified mechanisms and a reduction In the cost of producing large volumes of radio energy are problems now facing solution. With these problems disposed of, control of the new power immediately "will open up lines of advance In Industry and therapeutics hitherto closed to science. Doctor Whitney stated. In experimenting with the tube, It was found that by placing a wire over a table at a distance of a few feet from a radiating aerial, which was a copper bar about 10 feet long, a sausage in a glass container suspended from the bar was soon cooked thoroughly. The tube from which this power was produced was 2 feet long and 5 inches in diameter. Different applications of this tube have been under Investigation. For generations heat has been known to be useful in alleviating pain and curing some diseases. Recently medical research has Indicated that fever temperatures in the human body are destructive to certain disease germs. The new vacuum tube produces this heat, causing blood temperatures to rise to 100 degrees Fahrenheit In 15 minutes. Doctor Whitney .stated that as yet the high-power, short-wave tubes are being used for experimental purposes only and the task now before the investigators Is to bring them into practical usefulness at a reasonable cost and discover their possibilities for service to the world.

Swedes *» Dry Up tfce&n Bay to M*l» Golf Course Gothenburg, Sweden.--A golf course on the bottom of what used to be a bay of thfe North sea will be con-' structed at Marstrand, an aristocratic water resort on the Swedish west coast, near Gothenburg. In the winter it will he flooded and used as a skating rink. Marstrand Is built on a rocky is> land, surmounted by an impressive fortress, named Carlsten, which Is still in good shape though of no military value. Land is scarce and no flat area large enough for a golf course exists, so the town authorities have decided to shut off one of the shallow bays, keep it dry with an electric pump and then lay out greens for the golfers. The bay Is about 2,500 feet long and some 1,200 wide. At present the chief sports at Marstrand are sailing and tennis. The water is said to contain more salt than any other in Sweden and it was used regularly every summer by the late Oscar II, father of the present king. Another project Is to build an automobile route to the, mainland by linking several minor islands with a causeway and then run a ferry across the widest gap. At present there are no motor cars at Marstrand and only one horse.

Harris, skipper of the steamship Vernon City, risked his ship in a terrific typhoon to rescue 11 Japanese from what appeared to be certain death in the Japan sea, was revealed here In wireless dispatches. The Vernon City was on her way here from her Oriental voyage. She ran Into the storm on her way from Korea to Japan, but was riding It out comfortably when the lookout reported a small fishing vessel in difficulties. Captain Harris bore down on the craft and found It was sinking. Realizing no lifeboat could live in the seas that tossed his own ship like a cork, Captain Harris decided to try the rescue with his own vessel. After several attempts he was able to drift his ship close enough to the wreck to give it a lee under the 5ig vessel's heavy steel walls. Then with lines from the deck of the Vernon City the seamen hauled the Japanese aboard. ___________ TAUCTION!
