which are said to justify the belief
that he probably has discovered one OF
the most interesting facts yet revealed
through the study of OceanOgraphy.
he found that the most abundant hac-
clllus, at depths between 10 fathOms
and the surface Of the water of ia
maicO and TOrtugas, is a form that
possesses the capacity to convert all
the nitrates Of the water into nitr1teS
and finally TO expel all the nitrogen
from the sea in the form Of gas. thus
depriving the surface waters Of the
ocean Of nitrogen, which accounts for
the comparative paucity Of marine life
in those regions.
DR.. T. Waylaud Vaughn is making a
study Of the growth Of coral reefs. and
is rearing many colonies under natural
conditions He is making the most
intensive and carefully controlled study
ever undertaken of the life history and
struggle for existence among corals,
and it will be extended so as TO in
clude the great Barrier reef region Of
Australia
These are only a few of the principal
activities Of the department OF marine
biology, but they serve to indicate the
scope and Importance of work which
gradually is bringing out knowledge
which will be of infinite aid to the
men who take abstract truths and from
them make the worlds applied science.

Montana was originally inhabited By
a particularly fierce brand OF indians,
and was next vexed by a lot of mining
kings who were, If anvthing. a little
harder on the reputation of the state
than the Indians. Now. however, the
Montana farmers are raising alfalfa and
apples and are exercising the divine
right of suffrage so vigorously thHt it
Is no longer fashionable for a legislator
to save enough out Of mis- SO per diem
TO buy a new ranch every summer.
Montana has MANY unique attrac-
tons, including a large flock of glaciers,
a herd of buffaloes, the largest chin
nev in the world, most of the remaining
free and unlimited COWBOYS, the retOrt-
ful senator Dixon and Mary MacLane,
who once wrote up Butte so wildly that
MANY peonle still see it when they have
been indulging in frenzied feeding.

According to a careful estimate
made by lumbermen the total log har-
vest in the valley of the ST John riv-
err will be 100,000,000 feet for the pres
ent numbering season, over half Of
the timber cut will be manufactured
in the great mills in Van Buren,, the
st. John Lumber Co., and the Van Blu
rem Lumber Co. The remainder of the
cut will be handled in ST. John at
Fredericton and in the smaller mills
along the river. The mills in Van
Buren, have had an exceptionally good
season. st. John Lumber Co.'S plant
at the close of the season in about a
month, will have manufactured 30,-
100000 feet of logs. In addition TO the
lumber turned out over 70000,000
cedar shingles have been Manufactured,
and millions of laths. The st. John
Lumber Co. cuts its logs in Maine on
this side of the st. John river. This
winter, and the crews have already
gone in, the harvest for this one con-
Germ alone will amount to S0,000,000
feet of logs. Owing to the repeal of
the Pike law the number of logs going
down the st. John river to be manu-
featured in ST John is growing less
each year. This season the Stetson,
Cutler Co. at St. John will use only
about 20,O0O.00O feet of American logs
