IT WAS HIS FIRST DESCENT,

Blood Vessels and Affected His
lunss-Expert Could Not Under

EERING through the glass Of his
helmet, the diver saw the
strange beauty Of the world
about him, a world curious and
calm in its splendor. Above him there
seemed to glitter a canopy of purest
gold through which the sunlight per-
colated in broad slanting columns of
changing brilliancy. Under his feet
heavy feet, with thick soles of lead
the bottom of the sea reached away,
yellow and vague, a beautiful carpet
Of sand that seemed to incline grad
ually toward the surface.
All about him the lights were chang
ing. First a delicate blue, then a vio-
let, later a deep indigo colored the
strange world into which he had ven
tured. And after the first few mo-
ments of waiting Of the Barbara Jane,
which had disappeared of the Florida
keys some months before, the diver
saw that everything was slowly deep
ening into a black that gradually rose
about him like a solid wall of granite
producing the effect Of having been
dropped into a deep we'll.
But his sight becoming accustomed
to the peculiar quality Of the gulf wa
ter he made out objects close at hand.
To his left not ten yards from where
the diving boat had lowered him, lay
the crumbling. Jagged hull of the Bar
bara Jane, a perplexing and wonderful
phenomenon, the old hulk seemingly
studded with flashing stones and band
ed in precious metals.
His First Trip Down.
All these things came to John Grant
as he began his work on the Barbara
Jane. 1t was his first experience at
deep sea diving, and only the month
before he had been pronounced ready
to take up the hazardous work of his
profession. That his first assignment
had been the wreck off the Florida
keys had come as a surprise. Divers

ing the winter months many dormant
insects are found and consumed in
places where the meadowlark win
tiers.
Among the destructive insects upon
which it feeds are grasshoppers,
crickets, moths, butterflies, weevils,
curculios, billbugs, leaf beetles, click
beetles, cinch bugs and plant lice.
Many larval insects, as wire worms,
cut worms and army worms are con
sumed also.
They destroy the seed of pigeon
grass, panic grass, smart weed, rag
| weed, mustard, and other weeds.

distrusted those waters, he knew. Too
many of them had been attacked by
sharks.
But the weird beauty of it all was
so new, so compelling, to John Grant
that he went about the task of smash
ing the matches without giving thought
to the peril that might be moving to-
ward him from the black water be-
yond.
Then as he was about to descend
into the ships hold he felt a sudden
drumming in his ears. Like the grow
ing beat of some great triphammer it
pounded and pounded until his head
was rocking and his body Keeling.
Something had happened to the air
supply.
Scarcely knowing what he was do
ing, so swiftly had the dizziness come
over him, he tugged sharply at the life
line and the next instant shot upward
through the dark water, the pounding
in his ears increasing until he lost con-
seriousness.
Blood From Mouth and Ears.
When they pulled him aboard the
diving boat and tore off his helmet
they saw blood issuing from his mouth
and ears. The sudden change in pres

shape. The failure Of the air supply
had nearly caused suffocation. Final
ly they brought John Grant back to
consciousness. Then an old diver re-
marked:

have been q shark that bit off the air

Today John Grant is alive and we'll.
He is not diving now. He gave that

Potato Experiments.
BY O. A. THOMPSON, superin.
tendent EdgeIey Satisfaction.

i + X 4 + !. i. - = !. X i. + j. j. !. +
In the table below will be found the
results in yields of the different meth
DDS of preparing potatoes for planting.
The same distance vas maintained be-
tween rows and in the row as for va
rieties of potatoes. Only two years
are shown in the trial, which is al
most too short a time for drawing any
definite conclusions from the expert
ment, but the results have a particular
significance because of the good and
poor seasons represented. The season
of 1909 was particularly favorable to
the production Of good we'll ripened
tubers, while 1910 was exactly the re-
verse. The yields run very much alike
for the two seasons. The size of seed
used appears to largely determine the
yield per acre. A larger percentage
OF small potatoes is produced when
hen whole, half of small whole potatoes
are used than when smaller pieces are
planted. However, the difference in
yield in favor of the use of large seed
more than offsets the saving from
planting small seed. From the results
obtained in this experiment it would
seem advisable to use whole, half or
quarters of potatoes when the tubers
are plentiful and low in price, and to
cut them into smaller pieces when
they are scarce and high in price.
The depth of planting and the meth
cd of cultivation have, also, largely
Influenced the production of potatoes
at the Edgeley Station. Generally,
deep planting is not advisable as too
long a period elapses before the young
plants appear above the ground. Three
and one-half to four inches has in
variably given the best results. This
depth Is usually sufficient to place the
seed where plenty of moisture is pres
ent. 1t has also been found that in
order to obtain the best results pota-
to fields should be cultivated shallow
and frequent for the purpose of stimu-
lating rapid growth and for retaining
moisture. Killing should be avoided
until the last cultivation, at which
time the shovels of the c%ultivator
may be turned in such manner as to
throw the top soil toward the hill.
Our experiments also show that early
planting of potatoes usually gives bet
ter results than late planting. The
dry, warm weather usually occurring
about Aug. l is not conducive tosthe
full growth and development of the
potato. The table below shows the
different methods of preparing pota-
toes for planting and the average
yield for 1909 and 1910:

FOOD OF THE MEAD0WLARK
Inserts and Weed Seeds Make Up
Larqer Part of Diet.

The m~eadowlark feeds almost en-
tirely upon insects. Over three
fourths of it's food consists of insects
captured in the fields. About IL per
cen of the remainder is weed seeds
and a small amount of grain cleaned
during the winter from waste grain
scattered in the fields. During. the
summer, when it is found in North
Dakota, it's diet is made up almost ex-
clusively of insects. Insects are pre-
ferred to other food and are always
