BUILDING A CREAMERY.

A Few Suggestions Concerning Arrange

Since the creannery question is being
agitated perhaps few pointers on tne

The first move should be TO find a

site is very important, however. 1t

THE MILKY SEA.
Times When the Pacific Ocean Ha
Looked White.

Times When the Pacific Ocean Ha
Looked white.
In 1916 the expedition to the East In
dies under Martin Pring, when in tn,
tropical Pacific, had one night wha
was to the members of that expedition
a very mystifying spectacle. They be
held the sea all about them pale and
white, resembling a vast cheese vat, sc
that one might have imagined 1.-The ship
TO have been sailing in whey instead o,
salt water, it carried such milky APP
pearance along with it. The air and Sky
at the same time looked white and hay
without doubt the effect of the reflec
tions from the surface of the water SC
disposed and colored."
In February, 1851, Mr.. Daniel Pid.
gcon. very acute observer, witnessed
the phenomenon of this milky sea" OF
the Pacific, when, he says, "the who'll,
ocean from the ship to the visible hori
zon looked exactly as if it were covered
with SNOW"
The snowy surface evidently reflect
ed the light OF the sky, for Venus, be
ing very bright, threw a distinguished,
line of radiance across it, while the
phosphorescent crests of waves were
now and then seen breaking above the
layer of shining matter which overlaid
the water" He convinced himself that
the appearance was due to thin layer
of mist, produced when the sea surface
happens to be considerably cooler than
the moist atmosphere above 1T, so that
the air in immediate contact with the
water is chilled below the dewpoint and
becomes misty, while the air above re-
mains transparent.
Il would be interesting to know
whether the same explanation will APP
ply to all displays of the milky sea. .
or whether the effect would sometimes
lie attributed solely to phosphorescent
animals and plants. and if not. whether

The young women of Lawrence uni

wear uniforms. The original idea was
to have suits of cadet gray, like their
brothers, but this was found impracti-

navy blue blouses, laced up the front
with black braid. For the gymnasium
the girls will have boomers, and for
street wear skirts, both of navy blue.
