SHETLAND PONIES HOME.
Men Of the Shetland Islands Are Al
most Giants.

Just Off the coast of Scotland there
is group Of islands called the Shct-
land Islands. On one of this group
Of Shctlands the men are So large
that they are almost giants, for they
are tall, strong and broad shouldcrcd.
Their wives and children, too, are fine
looking and intelligent. Gully twenty
five miles away from this island of
Fctlar is one called Muckle Roe.
There the men arc small, ill-shapen.
homely and, in fact. look almost like
queer little dwarfs. These people are
SO very loyal to each other that they
do not like to welcome any of their
neighboring islanders to live in Muck
L. Roe. For this reason these queer
people make very little progress.
When the people Of Shetland Islands
reach the age of twenty they feel
| rather sure of d long life. for half Of
the population live to be seventy years
old and many of the people lead Wig
orcus out cf-door lives until they are
past eighty years Of age.
The Shetland ponies are known the
| world over. They are shaggy little
animals weighing only about one
hundred pounds. but they are hardy,
sure-footed and sensible. Their coats
are usually some shade Of brown,
| though some are of such rich black
| that they arc considered very bcauti-
full For this reason the black ponies
are the most valuable. The sheep Of
shetland arc small. having short tails
and short horns. Some arc white.
others gray white; still others ar.
brown or black. Because the wool
| grown on the native sheep of Shot
land is finer than that on any other
Sheep Shetland woods are sold great
| deal In their natural colors for fancy
work. The wool is 50 fine that it can
be spun into threads finer than lace
threads. 1t is Shctlander'S boast
that a,-Stocking made of the wool of
| one of these native sheep may be
drawn through a ladys ring. The
cows of these islands are small. and
| usually marked with several colors.
The native pigs of Shetland are un-
like the "Dorkers" NC are used to
seeing. for they are quite slim. on ae-
count Of being fed on fish, Their meat.
| too, has a different flavor, for the
taste Of fish is even in the pork.

NICKEL AND mONEL.
Ontario Is Now Furnishing Bulk Of
Worlds Supply Of Nickel.

Ontario Is now supplying the bulk OF
the worlds supply Of nickel from the
copper ore deposits at Sudbury-nearly
20 per cent. Tho output for 1909 was
1900 tons Of nickel and $500 tons OF
copper. Meanwhile the demand for nick
al is increasing. largely due to the ad-
miral,y activity OF England Germany
and tho Uaited States. and nickel pro-
lduccrs arc roaping an advance in prices.
Tie feature of the year was the adven.
of monel metal. a new alloy Of nickel
and copper, with the nickel proposition
averaging IS per cent. Owing to an inn
provemcnt in the process of reduction
this metal is made directly from the ore
without separating the constituent met
ais the result being an intimate mixture
difficult to obtain by the customary
methods.
