VASTNESS OF GREENLAND.
This Ice Crowned Island Is as Big as
Mexico or Alaska

This Ice Crowned Island Is as Big as
Mexico or Alaska.
Greenland is the largest island in the
world. Its total length from Cape
Farewell. its southern extremity in 60
degrees north latitude, to Cape Morris
h. Jesup. it's northern extremity in
S31a degrees north latitude. is in round
numbers 1,500 miles. almost exactly
the same as the length of the United
States on the ninety-seventh meridian,
from the mouth of the Rio Grande to
where our northern boundary crosses
the Red River of the North. The great
est width of Greenland is about the
same as the distance from New York
to st. Louis.
In regard to it's area the figures of
various authorities vary widely. 1t
may be sufficient to say that it can be
grouped in size with the United States
east of the Mississippi, Alaska, Mexi-
co, Colombia, Persia, Portuguese West
Africa and Turkey in Asia.
Its interior is covered with a great
sheet of ice rising to elevations of
probably 10000 feet in places and sew
eral thousand feet in thickness. The
available ice free land is a strip of
varying width along the coast, inter
sected by numerous deep fiords.
When one turns the pages of Ameri-
can arctic exploration Greenland is
found more or less intimately associat-
ed during over sixty years with all
American expeditions. except the
Jeanette expedition.
Americans have lifted nearly all of
it's northwestern and northern coasts
out of the arctic night and fog and
have twice crossed it's northern part.
American names stud it's coasts, and
the name of an American marks it's
northern extremity, the most northern
known land in the world.-Rear Ad-
miral Peary in New York Times.

Governor Burnquist has trimmed
about $7,000,000 from the budget of
$32,000,O00 submitted to him by the
various state departments and the
howl that has gone up from those hit
is long and loud. Rural schools were
hit for about $1,0OO,OOO and the state
university for like sum. That the
university can stand it seems agreed
but the rural schools will likely get
all they ask for. The country school
is an institution that is close to home
and few can attack it. Last year
an appropriation for this purpose was
trimmed and there has been a deficit
ever since. Budget making, as far as
Minnesota is concerned, is based on
the one idea of trimming every appro-
priation demanded whether it has
merit or not, and many crippled de-
partments are the result. The fact
that the state is growing is seldom
considered.

Southern Sells NOtes.

The Southern Railway Company has
sold to ]. P. Morgan & Co, the First Ma
tional Bank. and the National City Bank,
t25, 10000 worth of two-year per cent
notes, to be dated March /, according to
word received late yesterday afternoon by
W. B. Hibbs & Co.. from a New York
correspondent These notes will be Sc
cured with deposit OF development and
general mortgage bonds with the usual
margin, says the dispatch. A syndicate
will promptly be formed in connection
with the sale OF the notes, it adds.
Fairfax Harrison, president of the
Southern, earlier in the day issued the
following statement:
Directors of the Southern Railway
Company have concluded that in the pres
ent condition of the investment market,
long-term bonds cannot be sold on terms
sufficiently advantageous to the company
to Justify the assumption at the present
time OF the additional fixed charge con-
templated by the plan for the creation
of a refundinG and improvement and gen.
eral mortgage per cent bonds which has
been under consideration.
Consequently. although the deposits of
development and general mortgage 4 per
cent bonds in response TO the circular OF
October q, 1916 have been very satisfac-
tory. the board has determined not to
proceed at once with the creation OF the
proposed refunding and improvement
mortgage. and therefore the deposited
bonds will upon request be released and
no further deposits will be accepted.
"A short-term loan has been arranged
to renew maturing notes and to provide
additional capital to carry on plans for
continued enlargement OF the physical
plant to handle economically the expand
ing traffic which is reflected in the stead
fly increasing current earnings"
