Increase of Glaciers.

For the last five years physical geog-
raphers have been giving a great deal
of attention to the study of glaciers.
One question that has interested them
very much is whether since the begin
ming of the historic period the glaciers
Of the world have augmented OF dimin-
ished in area. No perfectly definite in
formation with regard to this question
has been obtained, though some gener-
al conclusions have been reached. 1t is
traditional in the Alps, however, and
some other regions that valleys now
occupied by glaciers were formerly
pasture lands. On the whole, it is Ger.
tain that for several centuries till quite
recently there vas a gradual increase
in the area of glaciation-
Glaciers everywhere are in a state of
continual movement. They are con-
stantly increasing in length or short
ening. Climatic variations are of
course the of the oscillations.
though the influence Of climate upon
glacial movement is not yet fully un-
derstood. When the laws governing
the movements of glaciers are well
known, the science Of meteorology will
be considerably further advanced than
it is today.-Chicago Inter Ocean.

The Peen-to Peach.

A curious and interesting peach has
turned up among the collections of
fruit trees growing on the grounds of
the Massachusetts Agricultural college
at Amherst. This is the fruit known to
genealogical experts as the. Peen-to
peach. The fruit is about the size of a
tangerine orange, but much more OBJ
late. In fact, it is almost as fiat as the
p%roverbial pancake. Good specimens
measured three and a half inches in di-
ameter, but were fattened endwise to
a thickness Of less than three-quarters
Of an inch. The Peen-to peach comes
to this country from southern China
and in it's former home has been
known to grow al far north as Picking,
which would naturally give it a climat-
ic range about as far north as Massa-
chusetts. Until this specimen turned
up in the horticultural grounds at Am
herst the Peen-to peach had eve been
known to bear fruit in America north
Of Florida, and the trees had been
grown only p~recariously and as a Curl
osity as far north as Delaware.

IRRIGATION BILL REPORTED.
Modified So That There Will Be No Interior
ence With State Laws.

A Washington dispatch dated April
7th says:
The House Committee on Irrigation
today favorably reported the irriga-
tion bill. 1t was the Senate bill which
was reported, it having been substitute
ed for the House bill. The bill was
amended in a number of respects so as
to change several provisions which
have heretofore been criticized. The
measure is amended in this respect that
it provides for more complete with
drawal of lands proposed to be irrigat-
to remove all possibility of speculative
enterprise. The amendment relates to
lands under private ownership which
may be irrigated under the provisions
of the act, and provides that the own
ers thereof must also be actual occu-
pants of, or residents, on the land re-
ferred to.
HG SD-Cdiled otdtG 1tiillOi IiadoN
was modified by striking out the latter
portion of the section and making a
substitution therefor SO that as the
clause now stands it provides that no
thing in the bill shall interfere with
any State law relative to the appropri
alton, distribution or use of water. and
the Secretary of the Interior, in car
rying out the provisions of the act.
shall proceed in conformity with State
laws. Also that nothing in the bill shall
be held to affect the rights of any State
or States or the Federal government or
of any individual in the waters of any
interstate stream. Thsi last provision
simply leaves in operation the pres
ent rule of priority in the arid region.
The members of the Irrigation Com
mittee feel sure that the bill. as report
ed will be satisfactory to all irrigation
interests. The last clause OF the State
control provision Is inserted with the
idea of fully meeting the views of those
living in States along the lower courses
Of streams used for irrigation purposes.
