The giant cranes of India, some
of which attain to a height of six
feet, are in way queer birds. They
mate for life and as mates are sin
gularly devoted to each other.
Among their practices that of dane
ing together is the most remarka-
bic. To and fro and up and down
beneath scraggy tree near a creek
or water hole pair of these curious
birds may be seen at the hour of
dawn footing it gravely in a sort of

SIBERIAN HARD TACK.


Many USes ct q Bread Much Favored
In Cold Countries.
OF all the hard tack breads of the
universe l have found by actual ex-
perience the small ringed bread of
Siberia the most substantial. When
the Russian engineering parties
were constructing the Siberian rail-
road this white ring bread with the
coarse rye bread) was their main
staff of life.
1t is made without salt OF yeast
and is first steamed, then lightly
baked to expel the moisture. Some
curious uses were made of these
breads by the engineers. When
soaked in hot pure talloW for few
moments till they sank they were
used in soups or soaked in and eat
en- with tea during the severe win
ter months. This tallow bread was
considered the most heat producing
article in the dietary. 1t should be
utilized by our arctic explorers.
Another curious use to which it
is put is as an extempore candle or
coffeepOt boiler. A nail is used to
make about eight holes in the tai
low ring bread. Wax vestas are
placed in these and ignited. 1t will
burn slowly for about an hour,
emitting a strong heat, sufficient to
warm and light a small tent and
boil the tea or coffee water. There
Is a rather strong odor of toasting
bread, but that is tolerated in pref
erence to smoke. While sojourning
with the engineers in Siberia / have
also seen them using the larger
sizes of ringed bread as makeshift
quoits for Sunday afternoon sport
in their tents, and the bread would
stand the knocking about pretty
well and would eventually appear
in the soup at the evening meal.
Small Siberian storekeepers also
use the ringed bread as an abacus
or primitive counting apparatus for
calculating small sums in rubles and
kopecks and simple figuring. Three
strings are suspended above the
counter. Ten breads are strung on
each. The top line represents the
rubles, their money transactions
rarely going above ten, and the two
lower strings stands for the kopecks.
OF course the strings of bread can
be increased to mount into the
thousands and up if desired-Sci-
