The magnitude of the great lake at
Gatum, on the Panama canal, which Is
now beginning to fill up behind the
Gatum dam, is indicated by figures
which have been recently compiled by
the engineers on the unavoidable daily
loss of water in the lake due to leak
age at gates and locks, seepage
through lake bottom, evaporation and
the operation of the hydro-electric
plant to obtain power and light. This
daily loss, says Popular Mechanics,
will amount to 1853. 100000 gallans, or
about 131, 100000 cubic feet of water.
The evaporation from the lake Is
placed at stne thousand cubic feet a
second; theleakage at 275 cubic feet;
the seepagd. at eighty-five cubic feet
and the amount used by the hydro
electric plaRt at 275 cubic feet.

from the table Senator Aliens order

in it. He moved its indefinite post

duced the order, was aggrieved that
any one should suggest Interior mo-

TESTING FERTILITY OF EGGS
Interesting Experiments Made by On
tario Station by Removing
Males From the Hens.

The Ontario experiment station
made a Series of experiments in test
ing fertility of eggs. which are in
teresting. They separated ten laying
hens from the male and placed the
eggs in the incubator each day to test
them.
During the first four days 70 per
cent. proved fetile, fifth day 81 per
cent, sixth day GO per cent, eighth
day 70 per cent, ninth day Q per cent.
and tenth day all were infertile. Then
they put a male with six laying hens
which had not been with a male, and
tested the eggs IN The same way.
They found 30 per cent. fertile on the
third day, 40 per cent on the fourth
day and fifth day so per cent, sixth
day 60 per cent. seventh day so per
cent, eighth day 6S per cent. ninth
day 20 per cent. and tenth day "A
per cent. Il would seem that
nearly three-fourths of the eggs
are fertile four days after the male
is taken away. or a week after the
male was put in. There would prob
ably be some difference in the males,
however and number of hens might
have considerable influence.

Poor bird For who could tell what
trouble had been hers?
The catbrd has rightly been called
the northern mocking-b bird; and so IT
might well be. for its size, shape and
coloring so nearly resemble its more
gifted southern cousin that the name
well applies. Having never heard the
mocking-bird, ! cannot judge as to
musical ability; but the catbird, while
a gifted musician and mimic, is not
the polyglot that the mocker is. But
if anyone doubts the musical ability
of the catbird, just let him get out
early on some May morning, and all
his former doubts will be at rest
Although the catbird sometimes
does considerable harm by destroying
small fruits and berries. the bird can
not be considered injurious On the
contrary. in most parts of the country
It does far more good than harm.
Outside of the small fruits, which con-
sist mostly of wild berries in our
eastern states. the catbird feeds upon
destructive insects.

about 24.6 per thousand. which com.
pares with 266 similarly estimated a
