Tell the Age of Oceans

Neutrality-suspicious. old Is the ocean?
Standing on the shore and looking out
over the expanse Of water, the ocean
seems a fixed and eternal fact, but
the seas had beginning and will have
an end. Scientists say that when this
time comes the last drop Of water will
have been absorbed into the earth's
crust, its surface will be desert and
all life will become extinct.
The age of the oceans have been
estimated by a leading authority, Pro
lessor Frank Clarke Of the United
States Geological survey. at about co.
100000 years. This, of course, Is only
an approximation. but Is based on
carefully studied scientific data.
All the water was once contained
In the vapor that surrounded the glow
ing, slowly cooling mass which Is now
the earth. After the gases combined
to form water the process Of making
the ocean salt began. This was the
work Of the rivers. Mineral salts were
extracted from the rocks over which

producing Foods.

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
The cow require not only materials
for maintenance but must also have
protein. fat and carbohydrates to
make milk from. The milk contains
water, fat, protein (casein or curd),
sugar and ash, and these are all made
from the constituents Of the food. If
insufficient protein, fat and carbOhy-
drates are contained IN the food given
her the COW supplies this deficiency
for time by drawing on her own
body, and gradually begins to shrink
in quantity or quality of milk, or both.
The stingy feeder cheats himself as
well as the cow.

FEED AND SALT REGULARLY
Cow Becomes Accustomed to Getting
Meals at Certain Time-Oevi-
alton Causes Worry.

A COW is pretty much creature of
habit. She becomes accustomed to
getting her feed at a certain time each
day and If that time arrives without
the feed she worries about 1t and this
affects her milk production. For this
reason regularity In feeding Is very
important. Also watering and sailing
should be attended to punctually. And
the water should be good. 1t Is mis-
take to require cows to drink tainted
water, for it certainly impairs the
health if it does not affect the quality
Of the milk. The man who provides
properly for the wants of his cows
has right to expect that they will re
pay him in more abundant milk flow.

they flow and deposited in the sea.
Each year the action Of the streams
is said TO make the ocean slightly more
salty, and this Is the basis on which
its age Is calculated. The amount of
salt carried by the rivers of the world
is computed by the scientists and COM
pared with the total quantity In the
ocean. After evaporation and the We
locity OF currents have been consid-
cred. it Is possible to calculate how
long 1t has taken to make the sea
water as salty as 1t Is today.
About three and half per cent of
mineral salts and 98h per cent fresh
water make up the oceans. Three

with returns from five large states not
yet received, and those from none OF

War Makes Financial
Distress Known.

London-Trom a position ,of afflu-
ience, popularity and public service
which won him seat In parliament
and knighthood, Sir Luke White Is
ending his days as the inmate OF
workhouse infirmary in Driffield. Clev-
er enough to rise from poverty to
noted career, injudicious investments
brought him low, and at the height Of
his political power he was forced to
confess himself bankrupt. He carried
down with him numerous trusting con-
stituents, and his liabilities Of $780,
600 included $4,000 in loans from
poor people who had confided their all
to him. The shame of having thus
wrecked the savings Of those who be-
lieved in him completely annerved
him. Now he is dependent on public
charity, his spirit utterly crushed, and
he is one Of the most pitiful figures In
the north Of England.
Began as onlce Boy.
Born in Deighton, near York, in
1916, he was an office boy at fifteen
for solicitor, who paid him about 80
cents a week. After eight years in
that service, Of course with increasing
income, he became managing clerk for
another solicitor In Driffield. In an
other six years he was admitted to
the bar as solicitor, and in the same
year he succeeded to the practice of
his employer. who had died.
He speedily became known as a
local preacher and speaker for large
district, and he was highly popular
and successful. For years he was
chairman of the local board, and then
of the urban district council. Then he
went to the East Riding county coun-
Gil. In 1895 he was appointed one of
the coroners for East Riding. He act
ed as election agent for Sir Angus
Holden, Liberal member Of parlia-
ment for the Buckrose division, and
when Sir Angus died in 1900 White
was chosen as his successor. In 1908
he was knighted.
Popular For Years.
He continued to divide his time be-
tween his attendance at Westminster
and his business in Yorkshire, but as
he gave more time to his parliament
airy duties than to his private affairs,
his practice suffered. The war brought
out the fact that he was in financial
distress, and last fall he resigned his
seat and filed petition in bankruptcy.
