from displacements, Irregularities, in

Aviatoss Heart ENLARGED.

Doctors Etienne and Lamy of Nancy,
France, have conducted series of
X-ray examinations of the hearts of
nviators and have found evidence of
considerable enlargement. The heart
enlargement sets in early in the fly
ing mans career, being noticeable
after five mosths of experience in
the air. The degree of enlargement
is. roughly proportional to the height
ut which the aviator is accustomed
TO fly, so that simple examination of
the X-ray plate suffices TO determine
Il mans branch of flying service
whether he is doing chasing and
bombing work at high attitudes, or is
engaged at marrying infantry, etc, at
comparatively low attitudes.
The enlargement seems to be SYM
metrical and it does not appear to in
volye serious trouble. 1t is due to
the hearts adapting itself to the ex-
ira work put upon it by changes in
the blood circulation because of the
varying conditions in the atmosphere
through which the aviator flies and

reaches Is per cent by the end of the
third week. The proportion of corn
meal is increased for the ducklings to
be marketed and the bran decreased
as the time for marketing the duck

The fattening ration, which should
be used for two weeks before killing,
consists of three parts, by weight of

half part of beef scrap. 10 per cent

The Egg Breed.
For the general farmer who is more
interested III obtaining eggs than in
producing green ducks for the market,
the Indian Runner is good breed.
This duck holds the same relative po-
sition in the duck family that the Leg
horn dogs in the chicken family. 1t
lays good-sized white egg. consider
ably larger than hens egg, and is
declared to be a small eater, good
forager and hardy.
At the present time the keeping of
ducks for eggs is an industry which
appears to be growing more rapidly in
the South than elsewhere. \ good de-
mand for these eggs exists at Easter
time, and the prices are usually sew
cral cents dozen higher than for
hens eggs, but during the balance of
the year the average price for the two
has been about the same Recently,
however, the Introduction OF the In
dian Runner has helped in building
up Il trade in first-class ducks eggs.
These eggs should be marketed FREE
/ quently, as they depreciate in quality
/ more rapidly than hens eggs. The
| possibilities of securing Il market,
moreover. should be carefully investi-
gated, for it is only in certain places
that good prices can be secured for
fancy ducks eggs.
On commercial duck farms most OF
the Matching is done in incuhators, for
the pekin and Indian Runner rarely
sit. On farms where no incubator il
available, the eggs are usually Matched
under hens. The period of incubation
is 4 week longer than that of hens
eggs, and, for this reason, the her
must be well cared for While ducks
are easier to brood artificially thar
chickens, they may also be raised sue
ceSsfully under hens. In the Latter
case it is better to confine the hens
and to allow the ducklings free range
Birds that are intended for sale as

THE FLYING CIRCUS

The Flying Circus has visited Grand Forks, and SIM
liar exhibitions have been given, or are to be given, in
many Of the larger cities Of the country. We. in this To-
cahty, have been especially favored because few cities
Of our size have been visited by the great flying experts
Of the United States army, and their splendid companions
from overseas.
The exhibition given by the flyers yesterday was a
marvellous one. 1t was unfortunately cut short by .rain,
but it lasted long enough ito afford the people Of the COM
munity nipple opportunity to witness some of the mar
Vicious feats of skill of which these air men are capable.
Simply as an exhibition. it surpasses anything that we
have ever had before. The first flying to be done in
North Dakota was done over the Grand Forks fair
grounds, and some of the ablest pilots have visited US.
and given exhibitions here. These exhibitions have cost
large sums of money and the expenditure has been fully
warranted because thousands of people have travelled
great distances for little other purpose than to- see one
man fly for perhaps half an hour. In the exhibition given
by the army flyers here, six machines were in the air at
the same time performing evolutions such as their pre-
decessors Of a few years ago never dreamed of.
OF course. the government did not send these flyers
here solely to amuse the'crowds. Their visit was for the
purpose of giving to the people visible evidence of some
Of the thrilling features that have characterized the war
cnt Victory loan. The men Who flew over Grand Forks
are some Of those who helped to bring victory to the
cause Of democracy. There were~thousands of them who
braved the elements under all conditions, who defied
the enemy's guns. and who on thousands of occasions
chased the enemy planes back to their hiding places
or brought them crashing to earth in ruins. No Drawer
finer set OF men live than the flyers of the American
and Allied armies. Our people recognize the honor which
has been paid them in this visit and will undoubtedly
demonstrate their appreciation of it by the,readiness witt
which they subscribe for Victory bonds.
