CAUSES OF OCEAN CURRENTS
Nansen, the Explorer, Dissents From Inc
Accepted Doctrine.

0SSSPtSN
DR. Nansen was led to make bis ia
nous attempt to reach abe North Pole
nv drifting in the ice pack north OF
Siberia and Europe by the discovery
Of q great current that was moving
westward and northwestward. 1t u
not take him as far north as he hoped
but enabled him to make a record that
remained unequalled for a long m
| Since then the man has given a little
thought to the influences which give
rise to such currents.
The majority of oceangraphers think
that the winds are the chief cause.
They believe, for instance, that inc
Gulf of Mexico becomes o~verchargeu
with water, and gives rise to the Gull
Stream, because the general direction
of the winds near the equator is from
the east. They also believe that the
drift from the shores of New England
and the Eastern Canadian provinces
toward Europe is due to the prevailing
westerly and southwesterly, breezes on
the Atlantic in high attitudes.
DR.. hansen does not fully indorse
this opinion. He says in a German
periodical that as the effect OF the
earth's rotation brings about a deVla-
ton of the oceans currents from the
direction of the wind, he believes that
this fact yitiateS the conclusions OF
those who hold to the above tteory:
Except on the equator and in special
cases due 10 the proximity of large
! land masses. he holds that it is impos-
| sib,e for a wind to produce q water
current that comedies with its dlrec-
ton. .
It is his belief that the potent agent
, in the production Of ocean currents Is
the difference in temperature between
! the equator and the poles. Winds,
however. while not shaping the courses
of currents, may influence to some ex-
tent their rate Of motion. The main
ocean currents, he believes, may be
! explained as Cue to influences intro
duced by the continents in their pain.

graphical Society" editorially pro-
ounce DR.. Nansen's paper "a search
ing and brilliant exposition of. his i'll
yestigations> and deductions" but it
adds that "in so complicated a subject
bristling with disturbing factors, II
may be long before a conclusion Is
reached that will be universally ac'
cepted."-Tribure Farmer.

The Paodder Wins.

An Alpine tourist set out at early
morning to climb the M~atterhorn. The
air was bracing, and he passed"a peas

to himself he said, "Slow fellows these,

But the path was steep and rugged.

with that steady, swinging gait, and
