AIR UP 10000 FEET COLD
Be in Arctic Regions After Flight
Of Ten Minutes.

AviatOrs experience many different
degrees of temperature in their flights.
On the hottest day in summer a flying
mar may be in the arctic regions in
ten minutes by mounting to a height
of 10000 feet. just as the climber may
pass through all the shades Of temper
allure by climbing Kilima-N Marc, that
giant peak which rises above the snow
line from the equator. He commences
with the tropical Jungle and ends
amid eternal snow.
The fact is that the temperature Is
invariably low at 10000 feet and over,
whether at the tropics or the poles.
and 1t is quite likely to be lowered at
the equator. Airmen well know the in
tense cold Of those upper regions, and
they need the rig-out of a S%hackleton
If they would mount to 10000 feet
above the earth's surface. In fact,
there is little variation of temperature
in these upper reaches Of the at
mosphere. It is much the same In sum-
mel as winter. except for the differ
ence which a high wind makes.
Even In the depth of a hot summer
the airmen will encounter 40 degrees
of frost at 10000 feet, and at twice
that altitude 100 degrees of frost-the
temperature of the South poleAis not
unusual.

told Stephen his news, and they had
parted friends. Yet all the time he
was conscious of an ~undercurrent of
d%isconcerting thoughts.
Louise met him at the station, and
he fancied that her expression, too,
although she welcomed him gaily
enough, was a little anxious.
"Well" she asked, as she took his
arm and led him to where her limou-
sine was waiting. "What did that ter
rible brother of yours say?"
John made Il little grimace.

he will insist upon dwelling upon GER

he came to call on me-" Louise sighed.
"He threatened all sorts of terrible
things if l did not give you up"
"Why didn't you tell me about it?"
John asked.
II thought it might worry you" she
replied, land it couldn't do any good.
He believed he was doing his duty.
John, you are sure about yourself,

He was a little startled by the earn
estness of her words. She seemed
pale and fragile, her eyes larger and
deeper than usual. and her mouth
tremulOus. She was like a child with
the shadow of some fear hanging over
her. He laughed and held her tightly
to him.
Her lips sought his and chung to

seemed to have seized her. Half cry

face against his. 81 do not want to

DAIRY
FACTS
FEEDING THE DAIRY CALVES
First Aim 10 to Cut Down Whole-MIlk
PerIod-ResuIts Of Tests at North
Dakota Station.

In feeding the dairy calf. the aim is
to cut down the period Of whole-milk
feeding. At the North Dakota expert
ment station, two lots Of four calves
each were fed as follows: Whole milk
first three weeks. both lots. From
then on lot A was fed one-half whole
milk and one-half skim milk till six
months old. Lot B, after three weeks
old. fed skim milk with flaxseed; just
enough fax was added to supply a.
much fat as was given the calves in
lot A in their whole milk. Each calf
was given two gallons of milk a day.
The whole-milk calves made the best
gains the first three months, but dur
ing the next three months the SKIM
milk calves nearly caught up, the four
lacking but Is pounds Of Weighing as
much as the whole-milk calves. Sew
eral expert cattlemen who examined
the two lots pronounced the calves
in lot B in as thrifty a condition as
those in lot A. The saving in using
skim milk and fax in place Of the
whole milk amounted to $40 per calf
for the six-month period. The grain
and hay cost the same for both lots.

She began to laugh and stopped abb
ruptly, the tears streaming from her
eyes. The prince leaned forward. He
took her hands in his, but she drew
them away.
"You are too late, Eugenew she
said. II almost loved you. l was al
most yours to do whatever you liked
| with. But somehow, somewhere, not
withstanding all your worldly knowl-
edge and mine, we missed 1t. We do
not know the truth about life, you and
E-at least you do not, and l did not"
He rose very slowly to his feet.
There was no visible change in his
face save a slight whitening Of the
cheeks.
"And the sequel to this?' he asked.
II have promised to marry John
Strangewey," she told him.
"That." he replied, 'is impossible !
l have a prior claim"
The light of battle famed suddenly
In her eyes. Her nervousness had
gone. She was a strong woman, face
to face with him now, taller than he,
seeming, indeed, to tower over him in
the splendor of her anger. She was
like a liOness threatened with the loss
of the one dear thing.

them had heard a discreet knock at
the door. Aline had entered with the
tea. There was a moment Of silence.
Put it down here by my side,
Aline," her mistress ordered, land

Aline held the door open. For a
single moment the prince hesitated.
Then he picked up his hat and bowed.

John, that I am nearly thirty"
He laughed.
"How pathetic! All the more rea-

people know about it as soon as pos

"There is no particular hurry" she
said, a little nervously. LET me get

First Pension Fund.

In this country the first pension
fund was established by the city Of
New York for policemen. Since then
r'any states and cities have enacted
retirement legislation, the number of
retirement funds has increased to
over 400, and many thousands of pub
lie employees have been covered by
retirement provisions. Although the
expansion of the movement has been
rapid. 1t has by no e reached its
limit. AS yet a number of states and
cities have not adopted any retirement
legislation; the 300 pension funds for
police and firemen do not include all
employees Of these two groups; the
100 teachers pension funds cover only
about half of the teachers, and the re-
naming funds, approximately 40.
cover only a small fraction of all other
classes of federal, state and municipal
employees.

DRYING UP A cow DIFFICULT

(By W. 8. CUNNINGHAM, Assistant
Animal Husbandman, University OF Arr

Many times certain cows r very

Is so strongly developed that they tend
to give a large quantity of milk right

dry up most cows Is to cut off all grain

periods between milkings by milking

the adult shell has two and one-half
coils. 1t is gracefully turned and deli

coil bears a large patch of black, and
there is also a narrow band of black
lining the edge of the opening.
