They are measuring the rate of movement of the Malaspina glacier in northern Alaska, and have discovered that it moves two inches an hour on fine days and half that rate when rain or fog is about. This glacier is part of an ice field 235 miles long—the largest discovered outside polar regions— but it will never wreck civilized areas for as it moves south the ice melts and forms the source of a river.

PINKHAM'S MMramo Broad back, deep body, straight keel and pio bone- mark of good layer. very thin, weak-looklng heads. Those with yellow, coarae, beefy flesh are not good layera and should be culled out, as should those with small sunken eyes. When In good health, a poor layer will have rounded, fat ahanks and will retain their yellow color in shanks and beak. A poor layer will be shallow chested and round-bodied and have thick, meaty, rigid laybones with a rounded narrow back and hard abdomen The slacker will also have a narrow spread between the pelvis bones, one or one-and-a-half Anger widths. The wise poultryman, even though he does not trapnest, will know of the past performance of families and will breed only from those that have proven themselves for health, vigor and egg laying. When he purchases baby chicks or pullets, he will purchase only those tested and of a proven high-pro ducing egg strain, as well as from a strain free from disease. Most culled pullets and hens will bring a good price on the market, or can be utilized for home consump tion or canned. Where locker plants are available, it will be profitable to store them until they are needed. Locker plant rental will cost less than feeding a non-producer. Improve Dairy Ration With Proper Minerals Natural feeds should apply enough of most minerals needed by dairy cows. However, mineral elements might be deficient in some farm ra tions. in which case dairy cattle may require supplements of calcium and phosphorus in addition to the regular farm-grown hay and grains. Timothy is sadly lacking in cal cium, alfalfa and clover containing three to four times as much of this mineral. It must also be remem bered that some excellent legume hays may be deficient in phosphorus If grown on soils that lack it and on which phosphorus fertilizers are not used. When little or no grains are fed, dairy cows may benefit from phos phorus supplements. Usually the grains will furnish all the phos phorus needed by live stock. Surprise Croquettes.
