Northeast trades. are in summer found in
full force about the Canary Islands, and
serve until within about - degrees of the
equator. In winter the belt shifts rather
further south, but at all seasons wind
from the northeast-is steady and strong
fully 900 miles southwark. The expedi-
ton of Rotch and de Bort appears to have
differed In It's methods from thaI OF the
Prince of Monaco in the more general use
Of balloons sondes," which rose to great
heights, and by their line of drift indicated
the direction OF the atmospheric current at
differ emit attitudes. Kites also were used.
but in the trade-wtnd region no great height
can be reached by their agency.
The northwesterly current was found to
be drier and more rapid than the main
northeasterly current, and there was al
as the level of the anti-trade was reached.
This phenomenon of temperature inver
sion" Is one of the most interesting to be
met with in atmospheric exploration To
give a single example. On one occasion,
with temperature of 20 degrees just above
the sea, the air. at an elevation of ], 500
feet, was found to have temperature as
high as sc degrees F. For our knowledge
of the upper currents outside the region
explored by Rotch and de Bort we are still
chiefly indebted to studies of the direction
OF movement of the circus clouds. For
example, the Island of Nautilus, in the
Southern Indian ocean, lies right in the
track of the southeast trades. That island
has long been the scene of great scientific
activity and there observations of the up
per clouds show. as We should expect, the
existence of a steady upper current from
the northwest. Our terrestrial atmosphere
is never at rest. apd the problem of the
general atmospheric circulation is a COM
pick one, and one that has been the object
of much acute theoretical analysis.

Half dozen houses are comprised in the
plant. Joined at angles and cornerwise. In
some places it runs two stories under
ground. In this esta blishment cement floors
predominant, and only the necessary appli-
ances are on all sides, thus permitting
greater cleanliness. The numerous washes
occur as the daily work progresses, the
water running from the floor into under
ground drains and thence TO the sewer.
Two stories under ground there are rows
of tables. with the meat laid out waiting
for mixing and stuffing. There is the smell
of meat herbs. onions and other things in
the air. but altogether it is strangely agree
able. The men at work wear uniforms,
but their own clothing is well hidden be-
hind by clean water proof aprons. The
cooking rooms are upstairs, and these also
are absolutely clean. The steam that es-
capes from the huge kettles is a disnfec

In ships the needs of the navigator must

winds OF the globe became accurately

tematized. so that now for probably every
