The pure bred sheep in Shetland are
not shorn, but plucked. The process
takes place generally in June, when
the fleece is ripe" and the silky wool
can be pulled off without pain. This is
called "rooing" and is much less dam
aging to the young fiber than clipping
with shears. The wool when thus han
died retains its peculiar softness, so
that any one Of experience can tell
whether the material of knitted ar
ticle has been plucked or shorn. 1t

BILE in some sort a poodle that is

council spoke Of the custom as still
kept up sin some remote and uncivil
places" and James l. wrote to tell
them that 1t had been put down in Ire
land under penalty of a fine Upon
this they passed an act on March IT,
1915, deploring the destruction of sheep
thus caused and imposing similar fines
on those who should persist in the
practice.

The air mile is a unit Of measure
ment that came into use with the ad-
vancement of aviation. We have the
land mile and the sea mile, which is
approximately one-seventh longer than
the land mile Of America. The nautical
mile is often incorrectly called a knot,
but knot is a measure of both dis
lance and time. 1t is correct to say
that a vessel makes ten knots, but to
say that she makes ten knots an hour
is tautology. The air mile is measured
differently from the land mile and the
sea mile. 1t Is a land mile minus the
retardation of an adverse wind or plus
the accleratlon of a favoring wind
Thus an aviator could cover many ali
miles while lowering over a given point
on the earth's surface. - Browning's
