The c.archIioht aEd Fog.


 If will be .vtlced on foggy night flint the beam of Il searchlight seems abruptly to come to an end if the light be pointed upward. On the other hand. if the beam be directed horizontally 1t will gradually fade away into nothing. Why should the vertical beam behave in this curious way? The reason Is not far to seek. Where the end of the beam seems to be at just that point does the fog end. for the beam cannot be visible to us unless there are small particles in its path. This circum- stance is of great assistance to sailors in Judging the state of the weather, sirce they can determine the thickness or depth of the fog. They can also tell by throwing the beam horizontally whether the fog is of great extent or whether it exists only in patches. If the fog extends a great distance then the beam will become gradually more and more dim. If the fog exists only In patches, then the beam is lighter in patches, and if it proceeds through place where there is no fog at aii that part of the beam will be black or invisible.-Harper's.

Work of tho Beaver.

The beavers conservation work Is accomplished principally by means Of the dams he constructs. These dams, we are told by Enos A. Mills, author of "In Beaver World" save soil, check erosion, reduce flood damage, store wa ter and help to sustain stream flow, provide waterholes for fish and are helpful in maintaining deep water ways by reducing the extremes of both high and low water and also reduce the quantity of sediment carried down into the river channels. When we take into consideration the fact that at one time in the country's history the beaver population was upward of a hundred million." it Is possible to real Ize what may have been accomplished by him along conservation lines. Like other wild creatures of mountain and plain he suffered from the advance of civilization. though he was prime fac tor in bringing this about.
