Admiral Peary on his polar trip
stood ut one far northern point
and saw what he-believed to be
land some 50 miles laway. He
called it "Crocker Land." Com
mander MacMillan onj his special
Crocker Land expedition, - wiped
this spot off his mapsj because af
ter traveling 150 mlies across a
field of solid ice to a point well
beyond where "Crocke!": Land" was
supposed; to exiHt, Itjwaa as far
away as when he startled.
; MacMillan returnedjto the point
from wheie Peary had sighted this
supposed land and he too beheld
this imaginary country rugged
hills and wooded stretches. It ap
peared to be a permanent mirage.
MacMillan took a number of sound
ingg in the territory, jhoweer, and
the current indicated jtnere mignt
be land. ' Tidal obserktions taken
at- Etah anad Cape Hubbard,

Barrow, Alaska, showed also that

the presence of some huge block,
Up to 150 miles the ice was as
smooth as a billiard :ablc but af:

. The plant of the Salem Butter
cup Creamery company has been
undergoing a series of important
alterations, during the past few
weeks. The plant while inot
thoroughly ' ad jut-ted to its hew
conditions is running at almost
capacity and expects to handle a
bigger and better business than
ever In the future. -
Maehfhery and motors have
been dismounted and moved I1 to
various Other positions In the
plant in order to make room for
new 2000 gallon capacity i ice
cream hardening room.'-This room
Iixh been completed and adds ma
terially tu the convenience and
efficiency of the plant. The com
pany's business ' ' in brick j ice
cream, eskimo pie, and frozen
uckers hafr grown to such dimen
sions of late that the old harden
ing rom has been given over Tal
aiost wholly to the accomodation
of these products. The new hard-
ening room is so constructed that
the cream may be put in one end
of the room and removed at the
other, thus doing away with' the
congestion in loading and unload
ing that hitherto has been such a
problem. ' jj ..
With these additions and alter
ations completed Mr. Gregory, the
manager and owner of the com
pany can rightfully boast of one
of the most up to date and effi
