UNCLE SAM PLANTS
CLANS IN BIC RIVER
Fish InOculated With Mussel
Eggs and Thrown Into
Mississippi
From the Technical Magazine.

From the Technical Magazine.
The federal government has been at
work the past season making material
sippi river fish with infant CLAIMS. 1t is
an old business. but a successful and
promising one.
Most of the pearl buttons of the world
are made from the shells of fresh water
mussels. Such enormous quantities of
these mussels have been hshed out of
the Mississippi river the last 10 years. in
order to satisfy the demands of the but
ton factories, that the beds are almost
depleted. The government Is now en-
deavoring to create a new supply by
artificial preparation. The steamer Cur
lew was an important agent In the work
the past season. All summer and fall
it piled the Mississippi between Musca-
tine and La Crosse planting CLAIMS. As a
result there are now in the upper river
s., 900 600 more clams--or the material for
some half billion-than there were last
spring.
The steamer is IN charge of an expert
from the United States bureau of fish
cries. 1t is fitted out with eight iron
tanks each of which Is four feet long,
two feet wide and three feet deep. Fresf
water is kept running in these tanks con-
stantly and extra oxygen Is supplied by
compressed air pump.
1t is athe nature of the fresh water
mussel in the second stage of its exist
ence-that is, after 1t has left the spawr
sack in the gils of the parent clam--to
live for period as parasite on fish be-
fore it drops to the river bed q full
fledged clam. 1t is this popularity o
mussel nature that the government Is
taking advantage of in its work of re
plenishing the depleted clam beds.
The crew of the Curlew catch fish will
seines in the sloughs and bring then
aboard and place them in the tanks. Fe
male CLANS are then secured, their she'll:
opened, and the spawn, several thousand
in number lying in a sack a couple Of
inches long in the gills of the parent, are
removed. The glochidia, as the tiny
creatures are called. are thrown into the
tanks with the fish. Their valves remain
open for five or six minutes. AS the fish
breathe In the water the glochidia ar,
drawn In the gills. No sooner do they
touch the flesh of the fish than they

and, as it is growing more and more diff
fcult to get girls 10 take up domestic
science. it looks as if the old qualifi-
cation of the "Hausfrau'' would soon be-
come thing of the past. In >ome Il
Years an increase of 100000 has taken
place in the number of women who ca. IL
their own living. -Four and one-half mil
lions work in country districts. A good
many are domestic servants; others do
farm work, look after dairies, and so on.
1t is said that SO far no important posi-
tions have been filled by women, and
that men need have no fear of them as
competitors in the higher branches of the
labor market. Where large numbers t
women are employed it is because their
work is cheaper, and in some cases be-
cause the increase in the number OF men
swallowed up by military service and by
emigration has depleted the land of them.
In commerce it is 1eckoned that $50, 600

coming more and more indepcndent and
less ready to regard marriage as their
only means to successful establishment
in life. So many girls are engaged in
shops in various capacities that many
families depend altogether for their ex-
istence on the earnings of the daughters
of the household. In some cases the
daughters of very lnodest homes have
taken full advantage of the splendid
technical schools of the country and have
made themselves self-supporting by their
own industry. Although it is stated that
only 26 per cent of the appointments in
the best class of commercial undertakings

acknowledged that millinery, dressmak-
ing and many other branches of technical
and artistic work are in their possess

Work of British Guns

| From the Cleveland Plaindealer.
Naval experts of the London papers
are obliged to draw their own conclusions
from the record of the results of the test
of gunlayers with the heavy guns of the
British fleet for this record has been
published entirely without comment by
the board of Admiralty.
The record is of more than usual in
terest, because for the first time the new
1875 inch gun appears, the battleships
Orion, Thunderer and Monarch and the
Ishattle cruiser Lion all mounting this
weapon.
The Orion showed what could be done
with this gun, securing twenty-four hits
out of thirty-five rounds. Petty Officer
Brady made four hits with four rounds
from one turret. While this vessel
scored nearly 20 per cent of hits the
average for the four was only 5s per
cent, as the other three vessels put on
the target only 40 shots out of total OF

The Strangers Cold
rom the London Chronicle.

From the London Chronicle.
The inhabitants of ST. Kilda regard
the landing of strangers as fraught
with dangers to their health. John
Sands, who 30-odd years ago spent some
months in st. Kilda, writes that 1.-The
most extraordinary complaint that
visits the island is called the strangers
cold.
1.-THE natives firmly believe that the
arrival of a boat communicates this dis
ease. They say that the illness is more
severe when the ship or boat comes
from Harris, and that they suffer less
when the vessel comes from Glasgow
or London. 1t is curious that every
one caught the distemper when an Aus
tralian vessel visited the island during
my stay here. Not one st. Kildan es-
capped. The symptoms are severe
headache and pain and stiffness in the
muscles of the jaw, deep rough cough
and rapid pulse

Sometimes 1000 or 5000 in the space of
few minutes will fasten upon a single
fish. No sooner do they get hold than
they burrow into the flesh of the glls,
there to make their home for eight days
to six weeks. according to the variety and
the time of the year, before they drop
off fully developed bivalves.
The inoculated fish are taken out Of
the tanks and then thrown into the river.
Other fish and other spawn take their
place in the tanks, and the work proceeds
so rapidly that hundreds of thousands of
the clans are placed In the river in a
single day. Sunfish are found to be the
best fish for incubation purposes though
all varieties excepting gar can be used.
AS different species of mussels spawn at
different seasons, the work of propagating
and planting can be carried on for con-
siderable part of the wear.

Submarine Data Secured
The contest of the submarine against
the above water ship of war has made
considerable progress and, as result of
experiments, good deal OF data mas
been collected, which cgn be tested only
under the actual conditions of war.
Tt has been hitbcito assumed that there
Is no antidoie to the submarine, but there
is reason to believe that hydroaeroplanes,
when flylns mt considerable height. can
see underwater craft when they are tray
cling submerger. Possibly the aerial yes
sci, by the use OF a gun firing down
wards, may be able to hit the submersei
vessel, even when to a ship on the sut-
face her whereabouts are unknown.
The possibility of such a development
has already suggested to the German
naval authorities the desrability of arm
ing their submersible craft with anti
aeroplane guns. 1t Is stated that the new
German submarines will mount gun OF
80 calibre which can be used either ver-
tically or horizontally. according to the
character of the enemy. This weapon is
to be carried on special type of dis
appearing mounting, SO that 1t may be
lowered when the vessel goes below the
water 1t is said hat the operation of
housing the gun -oan be completed in
about 20 seconds. An apparatus has been
devised to facilitate training the gun
vertically on an aeroplane. This new
weapon will be fitted in all the new sub
marines and. as opportunity offers, all
anti-aeroplane guns of Las inches When
Il Is added that hydroaeroplanes are al
ready being armed for offensive action,
the future possibilities of the contest
between submarine and aerial craft are
seen to be infinitely varied.

the canvas since the movies were first
shown. Cowboys and cowgirls crowd
ed the hotel Hobbies and cafes, their
jingling spurs breaking in upon the
music of the orchestras. Unruly steers
and rough looking ponies were herded
through the streets. Dozens of bad
men," types of the days of 40, throng
ed the sidewalks.
1t was the stampede" of the crack
cowpunchers, ropers, riders, rif1emen
and women marksmen who for six
days will produce the greatest wild
west show ever, under the auspices of
the Canadian government. The plains
men came from nearly every ranch of
western Canada and from as far south
as Arizona and Texas to compete in
the big arena which seats $4,000 spec
tators. Fully fifty thousand visitors
are in Winnipeg today and this num-
Der will be increased by 10000 more
before the program closes. 1t is eX-
pected the spectacle will be the great
