Fishermen are bemoaning the dis
appearance of ancient Floating
Island at Clinton's Mossy Pond.
Before Hurricanes Carol and
Edna dashed it to pieces last year,
the wandering little island offered
topnotch angling.
Hornpout fishermen In particu

a godsend. They would cut holes

Ing ground for many varieties of
fish that would nose about the
base of the island for worms and
insects that had dug down too far.
The Island varied in thickness
from two to five feet. In the dry
season, It would sit about two feet
alrave water level. But when the
rains came, it would grow heavy
and drop about a foot.
Its surface was covered with
small trees and bushes on a base
of earth and moss, and the walk
ing was treacherous. The swampy
bottom on a number of occasions
had collapsed beneath careless
sportsmen.
Local records mention the island
as existing as far back as 1876.
But legend dates it as at least a
century old.
"For that matter," said one old-
timer, "it may have been there a
couple of hundred years."
The island's location changed
without any special pattern. It
usually rested near the southern
end of the pond. But an especially
windy winter would find it driven
far to the northern corner. How
ever, it often meandered about
with no justifiable reason.

Israel Develops Its Own
Type of Cattle Wrangler
TIBERIAS - (UP) - So far no
one has been able to find a good
Hebrew equivalent for the word
"cowboy," so cowboy it's likely to
remain in Israel.
The Biblical letters look rather
odd spelling out this American
word, especially since the sound
ow ' is not matched in the tongue
of Moses.
Only in the past few months did
an urgent need arise for the word.
It came after 16 young fanners
took a course at the Agricultural
Station and returned to their vil
lages adept in lassoing, hard rid
ing and rounding up steers.
They don't copy the dress of the
American cowboy. A Bedouin ke
fieh is wrapped around the head
as a substi'ute for the 10-gallon
hat. Instead of levis, they wear
kliaki pants wide enough to let a
draft through. But the more am
bitious ones have asked that the
next village budget provide the
price of high-heeled boots.
iThe two main ranches in Israel
both slope down to the River
Jordan.
Grazing land at Kfar Ruppitii a
collective in the valley of ton-id
Beth Shaan, lies flat between vol
canic hills. Rich grasses grow in
this hot, damp plain winch was
fertile in the days of stone-age
man.
Poltn Four Helped
The ancient mound of Beth
Shaan lowers to the west, with its
Roman amphitheater and ruins
piled since the reign of Solomon.
The cattle of Kfar Rupping munch
the coarse herbage on the Jordan's
brink, oblivious of ancieift history.
The second large ranch, dubbed
"Operation Cowboy," covers roll
ing hills on the shore of Lakes Ti
berias. The homestead i near Ca-

pernaum, where a church marks

es. Black basalt thrown up by vol
canic disturbances beiore isime
limes has been used to build the
church and the Basilica of the
Beatitudes which tops the mount
overlooking Lake Tiberias.
This ranch owes its existence to
Point Four. The U. S. Operations
Mission in Israel lent its experts
in range measurement to the agri
culture ministry and invested in a
herd of 2,000 sheep and 300 Ameri
can heifers.
The scheme for pasture im
provement, which covers about
500,000 acres of neglected grazing
land, was boosted by two Point
Four men, Wayne Miles of Illinois
ind Albin Molohon of Montana.
They have convinced Israel cattle-
raisers that a rodeo kit isn't the
most important feature of a
cowboy.
Stock-breeding for beef has just
begun to find popularity among
(he conservative Israeli farmers.
While poultry farming and milk
production enjoyed huge govern
ment subsidies, beef cattle had a
rough deal.
Tuo Few Cuttle
Slowly official economics have
come round to the idea that chick
ens eat more dollars than heifers.
It takes 3'i kilograms of imported
fodder to make one kilo of chicken,
but only one kilo of fodder to pro
duce the same weight of beef.
Cattle can graze on natural pas
lure all year, except for the driest
season before the winter rains. But
due to governmental hesitation,
coupled wilh farmers' timidity, no
more than 10.000 head chew the
native grass today.
Tlie herds were mothered four
years ago by a consignment of
dar-gray Indian cows. Brahmins,
which had the advantage of re
sisting malaria. They acclimatized
at Acre Agricultural Slation and
soon felt quite at home by the Jor
dan instead of the Ganges. The
Brahmins are being cross-bred
with mealier European pedigree
cattle, and later the Acre station
will cross-breed thm with local
Arab cows which withstand tick
fever and diying heat.
For a long time to come, meat
will have to be imported under
subsiy dso the poorest family can
enjoy at least 100 grams on festi
val eve. The comfortably off think
nothing ot paying exorbitant prices
for steak.

WICHITA, Kan. (UP)
Kansas farmer stirred up an ar

Attached to the properly filled

This, too, seemed to be in order,
but the information was written
on Ihe hack of a picture of a nude

"We can't figure out," said one

whether he was ti-ying in a subtle
