ARCTIC RELICS ARE FOUND
Records Left by Explorers More Than
Fifty Years Ago Brought Back by
Croker Land Expedition.

Records left by various explorers In
the frozen North, some of them more
than half century old. brought back
by Donald B. Macmillan, head of the
Croker land expedition, who recently
returned, are on exhibition In the
American Museum Of Natural History
In New York. ...
Among the records is silk lining
of cap worn by DR.. Elisha Kent
Kane, the American explorer, left by
him at Rensselaer, Harbor in 1853. It
IS marked with leaden bullet 20. K"
There is also paper containing rec
ord Of Doctor Kane's life in the North,
cut with a knife, owing to a scarcity
Of writing materials.
There are also records left by Rear
Admiral jPeary, including a bit of an
American flag, left in 1906 at the top
of Cape Thomas Hubbard.
A packet Of letters left in a cache at
Cape Isabella in 1876 by Capt. Allan
Young for Sir George Mares expedi-
ton was also found by Macmillan. The
Mare party left its mark only 20 feet
from the cache where the letters were
found, but departed without discover
ing them.

WHAT MAKES YELLOW BUTTER
Real Source and Nature Of Natural
Color Found by Dairy Department :,
Of Missouri College.

Everybody likes yellow milk and but.
ter, but sometimes the color Is absent;
This absence is especially noticeable
In butter. Chemists investigated the
cause of this variation in color as Iona
ago a. 1880, but it remained for the
dairy department of the University OF
Missouri college Of agriculture to de.
termine the real source and nature Of
the natural color Of dairy products
Three years of investigation not only
showed the cause of the natural color
but made clear the nature and source
Of the yellow color that is found in the
body fat Of cattle. The color in the
tallow is exactly the same as that
found in butter. Cows that give vel
low butter have yellow body fat, while
those which give a whittier butter have
whittier body fat.
The coloring matter in both cases IL
carotin, so-called since it was first
found in carrots. The yellow color IL

final but comes from the feed. This
c0l0ring substance is found in all greer
leaves, which accounts for the yellow
butter In summer. By continued feed.

Higher Tax On Motortrucks.

Because Of the great damage
wrought within the past two years
to the state roads by the big motor
trucks, legislation will be asked to
either prohibit these from using the
macadam and dirt roads or to COM
pei them to pay a license that will in
measure compensate the state for
the damage caused.
Two years. ago a bill was consid-
cred which aimed to prevent fresh
ing machines from going over these
roads because they cut deep burrows
in the yielding material with which
they were covered, but the farmers
feared that the manufacturers would
refuse to ship any more If the law
was passed and SO they killed 1t. It
is possible that this measure may
come up again, but there has been NO
agitation in this direction.
There is, however, strong opposition
developing to the big trucks. which
pay very little more than the smaller
ones and some action is expected to
be taken which will minimize the DAM
age. It Is now realized that the state
made a great mistake in failing to
build all of the roads of concrete.
While the first cost would have been
much greater. the maintenance expense
would have been very much less. In
deed, it has been calculated that the
saving in repairs could have exceeded
the interest charges on the total
amount expended.
However, now that the roads have
been built, it is proposed to protect
them as much as possible and to COM
pei those responsible for the destruc-
tion wrought to pay for the damage
they caused.
State Senator Campbell strongly fav-
ors an increase in the license fees now
paid by the big trucks.
There will be other important leg.
islation sought by the Automobile CON-
missioner. He will ask. larger ap-
preparation so he may be enabled to
enlarge his force and prevent violations
of the laws.

ABORTION DOES GREAT HARM
Disease 0isappears Automatically Pro.
vided No New Susceptible Ami.
mails Are Added.

By II. C.. MENUS, Colorado Agricul-
tural College. Fort Collins. Colo.)
Contagious abortion does much
damage In some herds. It has been
found that infected cows do not con-
dnue to abort. When It first breaks
out In the herd considerable number
usually throw their calves. During
the second year the abortions will be
less, and the third year the cases will
be few. In this way the disease dis
appears automatically, provided that
no new susceptible animals are added
to the herd. Disposing of the cows
that have aborted and buying new ones
usually results in prolonging the dis
ease in the herd. The contagious abor-
ton germs are often spread by the
bull, so great care need be exercised
in purchasing a sire to make sure that
he is free from the contagion and also
not to allow him to serve cows that
are affected.

Money To Run Legislature.

BY reason of the Inauguration of the
budget system the General Assembly
may find itself in a predicament
should 1t be found necessary to en-
ploy more help at the coming session.
The last legislature appropriated only
$125,000 to pay the expenses of the
legislature, this amount being predi-
Gated on that provided for 1916 and
no provision was made for a possible
deficiency. In the effort to economic
the lawmakers cut to the bone at the
last session, and so deep was this cut
that there was not sufficient help to-
ward the close to do the work.
This was particularly true of the
Senate, where the clerical force was
unable to meet the demands of the
senators. AS a result employees were
switched from pillar to post, while
many Of the senators protested
against being obliged to write their
letters or pay outsiders themselves.
Until this session the legislature could
meet any additional demands by pass
ing a deficiency bill. Under the new
system this cannot be done unless
provision Is made in the tax levy.
About the only other way to meet
any expense not anticipated but which
may be found necessary, is by Great
ing a legislative contingent fund or
having that set aside for the Governor
increased. and then have the Executive
meet possible deficiency. It is moie
than probable that this question will
be taken up for consideration by the
financial committees who will confer
with the Governor.

CHAPTER WI.-Continued.

The captain had spent weeks on the
Island. He had put oil the results of
his investigations into his letter to
Donald. He described deliberately the
structure Of the monsters, tracing the
notifications Of the gills, air bladders,
6ns and dippers.
Lastly, no told Donald the secret
Of controlling them. And this was so
amazing that MacBeard almost doubt
ed it.
Unfortunately, two pages were miss
ing, and these contained part Of the
instructions for keeping the monsters
In subsection. And, what alarmed
HacBeard, the manuscript ended with
the statement that the Eruption was
not likely to prove of permanent in
Jury to humanity, because
However, MacBeard cared little for
this In his supreme JOY. His dreams
took definite shape at last, rushing into
the concrete with violence that sent
him into an ecstasy. He saw the man
Of the future, the superman, who was
already at hand, irresistible by reason
Of his numbers. strength and cunning.
And he saw himself, the ruler Of new
world which had never heard Of the
eighth commandment.
Next morning he left Baltimore in
his motorboat. It las constructed SO
as to be practically unsuitable, and he
had stored it with provisions, gaso-
line and instruments. He had several
weeks supplies on board. He was de-
pendent on no one.
He started northward at once,
passed within q few miles of the F55
upon his course, and reached Fair
island. When he set foot upon its
rocky, lonely shores, he knew that at
last his time had come. His revenge
upon the race was ripening, and he
meant to exercise it to the full.
His first act was to explore the
lsland. He discovered with his plum
NETS that Masterman had been correct
in tracing the prolongation Of the
south spur of the continental shelf. He
discovered that Fair island was the
peak Of subterranean range ascend
ing sharply from great depth.
At distance of about three hundred
feet beneath the surface there was a
sort of cup or crater in the mountain.
teeming with unknown forms of SUBJ
marine life.
He found the stores which had been
left by the oil-ship, but there was no
Sign Of any airplane. However, since
NacBeard did not know that one was
to have been sent, he did not expect
to find one.
Stocking a cave with provisions, he
made himself at home there, and at
once set out to investigate the pres
ence Of Masterman's monsters.
