Joy of the Fisher Folk.

Haugesund, Norway, was greatly ex
cited early this month. The herring
had come, and the excitement was in.
tense in the extensive preparations fol
their capture. In few days the pop.
ulation had trebled and every man
was clad in oiled clothing and was
very busy. The harbor was a forest
of masts, and it was stated that one
could walk from the landing to the is.
lands in the bay on fishing smacks
they were so thick. The catch was
most satisfactory. Near Bergen the
swarm of herring was very large, and
if the weather had been better the
catch would have been the greatest
for many years, but the storms were
awful and the fishers did not get much
more than last year. The prices are
somewhat better.

NOTES..

| DehOrning calves is described as
such simple operation by the agri,
] cultural department bulletin on this
! subject that it is difficult to explain
why it is ever postponed until the
horns are fully grown and the neces-
sity arises, if hornless cattle are
wanted tor saving them off. To de-
horn, secure pencil or caustic pot
ash at a drug store. When the calf is
three or four days old throw it to the
ground, locate the little knot which
indicates the young horn, wet it well
and rub it with the pencil, held in a
gloved hand. This is all there is to
the operation. 1t constitutes but a
few minutes work, and causes the
animal no pain. If after a couple of
weeks any signs of growth appear. a
I second application will complete the
job.

! five per cent, upon 100000 An ad-
dlt1on into this capital Of one million
dollars, to serve the function of co-or-
dinating and regulating astronomical
efforts would, Professor Pickering be-
| lieves. have the immediate effect Of
enhancing the usefulness of every
really active observatory in the world.
Existing funds for research are all
passive in the sense that they wait for
applications and then consider what
appropriations can be made. This
fund would be active, seeking out the
men and the institutions where aid
might be needed; where instruments
not in use might be available for
work; where otherwise valuable ma
terial might remain unpublished and
consequently useless for lack Of
means
The director calls attention to
funds already established and avail
able, with which he is personally con-
nected, such as the Rumford fund of
the American academy, with princt-
! pal Of $4,000, available for investiga-
| tions in the departments Of heat and
| light; the Elizabethan Thompson
| science fund, with principal of $685.
! O00 the income available for investi
cations in all departments of science,
, the Henry Draper fund Of the National
academy, principal $4,000, available
| for investigation in astronomical sub
jects by citizens of the United States;

| Science fund of the Harvard college
observatory, with principal of $780,
900, of which 100000 is now avail
able. the income to be used by as
tronomers of any country in pursuit Of
any important astronomical work.
! These endOwments, together with
the great sums at the disposal Of the
and the unexpended balances of the
various research funds Of the National
academy, make it improbable that any
really worthy investigation needing
not more than few hundred dollars
for its execution need fail for want
| of money.
But investigations on a larger scale
sible, Professor Pickering believes,
only by the creation Of very large
trust such as he HIS in mind, man
aged by central board Of directors.
Creation of such a fund would start
astronomers at once on several re-
searches that are imperatively calling
for attention. Among the great en-
terprises which Professor Pickering
personally would like to see started,
directly the project is realized, the
following may serve as an example:
There might, he says, be a northern
Photographic durchmsterung, or COM
plete chart of the northern heavens,
which Professor Pickering regards as
a real necessity of astronomy today.

NORWAY was Riuht.

Now that the negotiations between
Norway and Sweden regarding the
separation of the consular service
have reached a happy conclusion and
Norway has been conceded all her de-
mands, it is we'll to recall the words
of Minister de Geer, Sweden's leading
statesman in latter days, in his
memoirs, published in 1892. He
therein declared that in reality the
Norwegians were correct in the posi-
tion which they had taken. 1t is not
proper that the one people shall yield
more of its sovereign rights than the
other, for it thereupon becomes to a
greater or less extent dependent. If
Norway demands separate consuls the
demand should not be denied.

Unusual Success of Chicago Boy
Who Knows Law.
Professor Westenga Of Harvard
university, who has recently been
named as adviser in international law
to the King Of Siam is of Danish ex-
traction and a native of Chicago. His
full name is Jens Iversen Weston
gard and he is 81 years old. He is
not a college man, as he laid his foun-
dalton in law in lawyers Office.
He became so interested in the
work, however, that he decided to take
a course at the Harvard law school.
A year after completing his studies
he was appointed a professor in the
school, DR.. Harper offered the young
Dane $500 year TO come to Chi
cago, but the offer was declined.
Although born in this country, Mr.
Westengaard speaks Danish like a
native. The flag of Denmark is a
prominent feature Of the decoration of
his room. While at Harvard he in
troduced many little Danish customs
and conceits at the social gather

Points to Watch in Sugar Making.

Dudley Carleton of Vermont recent
ly made an address before the Yer
mont sugar makers at Montpelier and
said in part: Dispatch in converting
sap to sugar or syrup is one of the es-
sential things that must be attended
to and rapid and hallow boiling should
be remembered. Ii your sap is going
to be affected by a change of weather
before you can boil it, put a cake of
ice into your storage tank as you
would your milk to keep it sweet.
Keep all foreign matter out, and after
removing the inter, put it up in a
package that will please the public
eye. Sugar may be made of any
grain that is wanted by cooking it
and handling it, The less cooking
and the more stirring you give it the
finer the grain will be, and vice versa
Put your label on every package and
send out, and be ready to back them
up every time. If you do not have a
No. 1 sugar do not try to fiji an order
with the poorer grade. One great
help to the sugar-maker is to make
sugar that will sell itself.

tories throughout the world. For
example, fifty observatories set out
to observe the planet Eros during its
opposition in 1900, but so far as is
known only two or three have made
the reductions necessary to render

ment Of this new institution have to be

nectlon with all astronomical research

large sums of money at present in
vested in astronomical plants would at

Cambridge, Mass, April 21.-Wha
million dollars would do for the
science of astronomy; how a great
benefcient trust might be formed
among tn eworld's leading astronom
ers; how board Of advisers, consist
ing in part of directors of the princi
pal observatOries Of the United States
an din part Ct older astronomers re
tired from active work, could appor-
ton the income from such a sum OF
money in such manner that the best
possible astronomical use would be
made of it-such in essence is an as
tronomer's dream described in a
special report just issued by Profes-
sor Edward G. Pickering, director of
the Harvard astronomical observa-
tory; and it is a dream that, con-
sidering the fact that the endowment
been increased from $4,000 to $685.
900 in the past quarter of a century,
may seem to stand a fair chance of be-
ing realized.
At any rate, Professor Pickering,
is so fully convinced that the PROPOSE
ton of incorporating, as it were, in
astronomical trust with a capitaliza-
ton of one million, or even two mil
lin dollars, is feasible that he has had
no hesitancy in outlining and publish
ng it with considerable fullness of
detail. Such a scientific organization
would have all the advantages, he be-
lieves, of the commercial or industrial
trust and none Of its Objectionable
features. mo one" he says, could
object to a trust in wheat, for ex-
ample, if it's only object were to in
crease the quality and especially the
quantity Of the crop and to furnish it
at the lowest possible rates, while ali
the time aiding those who are not
members of the trust in every possible
way 1t is universally admitted
that in the industrial arts there is a
great advantage in cooperation and in
carrying on work on large scale. The
SINE remarks apply to scientific in
vestigation, with the added advantage
that the supply and demand are in
definitely great, so that the market
can never be glutted.
The general plan urged by Profes-
sor Pickering is as follows: He would
have a central board Of advisers, COM
posed of leading astronomers of the
United States who would meet at least
once a year-and probably at first
oftener-to determine the apportion-
ment Of the income of the astronomi-
cal trust fund-an income, by the way,
that should amount to at least $4,000
annually to accomplish the work that
is, from the astronomers point of
view. of pressing Importance This
board would be able to place various
tasks of observation and calculation
just where they could best be per-
formed. Every danger of duplication
of work would thus be eliminated
This is indeed a most serious consid-
Grafton in astronomy, for hitherto a
most disheartening sort of waste of
time, money, and energy has been

In brief, the whole plan is for an in
stitution that will advance the inter

bined advice of the leading astronom-
ers of the world. Professor Picker
ing, however, is convinced that it
would be for the distinct advantage of
the new institution to have its funds
invested in the name of the president
and fellows Of Harvard college, as the
university corporation is called, believ-
ing that the standing Of the university
