COD HAVE NO LINERS
And Norway Can't Produce Much Cod
Liver Oil.

. L y - e.. y i
The failure Of the cod liver oil crop
for two years has caused the Nor
Wegian government SO much concern
that official bulletins have been issued
about it. The failure is not altogether
to the supply Of cod, for about the
same number are taken from the sea
each year, but the cod that are caught
lack nutriment. Most Of them are half
starved, and do not weigh one-tIird
as emuch as they should. Some of them
are so thin that the livers (from
which the oil is taken) are barely dis
tinguishable.
The GOODNESS of the sea has killed
the smaller fish on which the cod sub
sist. Cod, as well as seals, have been
living on short rations for a long time
Hundreds ofacod caught with lines are
found to have been bitten by hungry
seals. a bulletin recently issued by
the Norwegian government says:
THE condition Of the Goldfish is
worse than ever. They have no livers
to speak of. It is now requiring 40, 900
fish to make a barrel of oil. This is
without parallel in the history Of our
fisheries. !"
So far as the trade is concerned,
wholesalers are compelled to replenish
their stock on almost any terms de-
lnanded.
In one of the London hospitals de-
voted to the treatment Of pulmonary
diseases the use Of cod liver oil has
been abandoned and petroleum emul-
sions substituted, with satisfactory
results.

RELIEF IS NEEDED.
Famine in Norrbotten Causes Much
Distress, but Assistance Is
at Hand.
Area in Need Is Limited and Gov
ernor Already Has a Con-
siderable Fund,

~ - + - i
Governor Bergstrom of the province
OF Norbotton was in Stockholm fort
night ago to confer with A. T. Odel-
berg. the minister of agriculture, re-
garding measures for the relief of the
people In the famine district in his
province. The famine is apparently
not nearly SO extensive as it was last
year, but many of the same parishes
are affected.
Only a day or two before my de-
parture from Lulea / received the
first official reports from Arjeploug
and Arvidsjaur in Lapland,'' said Gov
ernor Bergstrom to a correspondent.
In the parish of sArvidsjaur the fod-
der is SO severely damaged that it is
entirely useless. The fodder harvest
is less and by far poorer than last
year, and the quantities of fodder nee
essary to keep the stock Of cattle
alive over the coming winter will be
still larger than were required last
year, altho the stock is now much
smaller than last year at this time,
owing to the mass-slaughtering nee
essary to make the seanty famine sup
ply of fodder last over the past winter.
So UNLESS the stock of cattle is to be
still further educed, 1, 100 tons of hay
fodder, Ito tons of fodder cakes and
160 tons Of oats will be necessary to
ing winter in this parish alone.
In the parish of Arjeploug, the
condition is in general very hopeless.
| The inhabitants are desperate and
stand face to face with a, total failure
of crops. No less than 500 tons of hay
is needed here, and the community
| is absolutely destitute. Il
In the parish of .Jukkasjarvi, near
Kiruna, nearly 1000 tons of hay is
absolutely necessary. From the par
ish Of Kvickjock no intelligence has
reach this parish on account of the
heavy rains, which have flooded the
| bogs and lowlands. 'as s.
4 The causes are four-drought il
the early summer, deluging rains Iii
the latter part of the summer, severe
night frosts and finally the ravages OF
1.-THE lemming (myodes lemmus), which
gnawed off what the frost had left.
My private opinion is that in these
parishes the condition is in places
worse than last year.
1t is very likely, however, that there
will be no need to call for help from
other countries. Governor Bergstron
has 100000 kroner left over from las
winters contributions, and Minister
Heidelberg has 70, 900 kroner from the
American relief fund. Here is a funt

PRIZE FOR MARCoNI
Probable Awards of Nobel Prizes Tn
officially Reported.

Soon again 1t will be time to an
nounce the awards for the Nobel
prizes. AS a matter Of fact the names
are already selected, but have not been
officially announced. 1t is under
stood that Marconi will obtain the
prize in physics for his discoveries re-
lating to wireless telegraphy. The
chemistry. prize is said to fall to Pro
fessor Svante Arrhenius, the Swedish
chemist. The prize in medicine may
be divided, one-ha1f going to Dr.
Finsen, the Danish physician, who has
worked such marvellous cures with the
Finsen light rays.
Regarding the literary prize, there is
some doubt. The British commit
tee IS unanimous in naming Algernon
Swinburne. Denmark, supported by
many French litterateurs, among
them Anatole France, recommends
Georg Brandes. Nevertheless the
Swedish academy seems to lean to-
ward Bjornstjerne Bjornson or Henrik
Ibsen.
For the peace prize many women.s
organizations have proposed the name
of Baroness Berta, Won Suttner. The
latter prize will be awarded by the
Norwegian storthing.
