MADE NOSE FOR A GIRL
Surgeons Manufactured One Required
by Child Of Twelve, Born
Without One.

A nose, which in lines and SYM
metry compares favorably with the
natural variety, has been manufac-
tured from a soupbone by surgeons
at Samaritan hospital at Philadel-
phia for a twelve-year-old girl.
The girl was born without a nose.
Her parents refrained from taking
her out in public because of the at
tention her deformity attracted.
Surgeons at the Samaritan hospital
decided that the girl could have a
nose like any other person. DR.. w.
Wayne Babcock carved a nose along
Greek lines from a soupbone.
An incision was made in the FROM
tai bone of the skull and the soup
bone nose securely fixed in position,
Then the flesh of the face was
stretched so that it covered the SOUP
bone, Nostrils were pierced in the
flesh, and the child was able to
breathe freely through the new nose.
In few days she will be able to
leave the hospital, sos ,sr' -' . .'''''''

PRODUCTION OF LIVE STOCK
Not Keeping Pace With Increase in
Populstion-Manure Needed to
Maintain Soil Fertility.

In raising live stock the successful
farmer fully appreciates the value Of
good breed, proper care and scientific
feeding. II any one feature is neglect
ed the Iull value of the feed is not
secured The production of live stock
is not. nor has 1t been for several
years, keeping pace with the increase
in our population and the demands
from abroad.
Western ranges have been devel-
oped into farms so well satisfied with
the high price obtained for corn, hay
and other products that they have not
bothered with live stock.
Because of the increasing demand
for meat at home and the deficit
abroad partly because Of the war, meat
will command a very attractive price
for Eany years to come.
Ainother reason why stock raising
Should not re neglected is because the
manure from the live stock is indis'
pensable in maintaining the fertility
OF the soil.

Arctic and Antarctic Ieeberas.

1t is not generally known, even to
sailors, that there is marked differ
ence between icebergs in the Arctic
and Antarctic circles. Those of the
Arctic ocean are irregular in shape,
with lofty pinnacles, cloud-capped
towers and glittering domes, whereas
the southern icebergs are flat-topped
and solid-looking. The former reach
the shore by narrow fords, but the
formation OF the latter is more regu-
lar. The northern are neither so large
nor so numerous as those met with in
the southern ocean. In 1855 an i'm
mense berg was sighted in AZ degrees
south latitude, which drifted about for
several months, and was sighted by
many ships. 1t was 300 feet high, 60
miles long, and 40 miles wide, and
was in shape like a horseshoe. Its
two sides inclosed a sheltered bay
measuring 40 miles across. A large
emigrant ship ran into this bay and
was lost, with all on board. Only
about one-ninth of an iceberg Is WIS.,
ible above the water. There are sew
eral well-authenticated accounts of
icebergs 1000 feet high having been
sighted in the southern ocean. This
would make their total height 5000
feet, or nearly two miles.

oume that it is cholera.
Who're cholera is suspected, IL is

would take the $40 COW about ten
years to pay for herself in butter; if
she was a middle-aged COW she would
never do it. On the other hand, the

in butter in less than three years.
