In birds which keep a vertical posi-
tiou when at rest. such as the falcon
and owl, the soft egg becomes short
through the birds weight acting
against the ovarian pressure. In
birds which, like the grebe, are
nearly always swimming. the egg
lengthens. because the weight of the

Dolph, speaking on the sugar schedule

wanted the law enforced whether il wa.
