BY JACK PATTERSON
Alex Barbee is the only person in
the world who has mastered the art
Of raising terrapins.
The government tried it and fail
ed. But Mr.. Barbee established a
t9rrapin farm eight years ago at the
Isle of Hope near Savannah and it
is flourishing.
He is today the Terrapin King.
His farm measures 60 by $50 feet,
and is divided into pens. Two weeks
ago, there were $500 terrapins on
the farm, valued at SIS to $36 a
dozen, according to their size.
Terrapin may be raised and hatch
ed at minimum cost, owing to
economical habit Of requiring no food
from October to April. Baby terra
pin refuse any food at all until they
are six months old.
In writing about his farm, Mr..
Bareee says:
'"The whole thing can be flood
ed with water at will, and the pens
are always flooded when the terra
pin are. fed, which is usually about
three times a week in spring and
summer, and not at all in the win

Umpire Klem Having Trouble Explaining
 New Rules to Boxnen

New York, March 19-Umpire Bill Klem is having the task of his life down South instructing the players in the new rules. It is a difficult thing to teach an old dog new tricks, and K1em is having this experience with the veteran pitchers who will be permitted to use the spit ball this season. Many of these pitchers have had the impression that if they were exempt from the new rule prohibiting the spit ball they were also exempt from the other provisions of the rules.
 Umpire K1em changed their inn pression on this point, and has i'm: pressed them with the fact that the moist ball is the only trick delivery they will be permitted to employ. Many of them have been practicing the shine ball, the emory ball. the mud ball and other forms of freak service. The new rule bars the old- time spit ba1lers from using any de- livery but the aqueous toss.
 Many of the National League pitchers have been in the. habit of carrying resin in their uniform

 During the war the survey did in- estimable working researches Some of the war activities of the bureau were enumerated by Franklin K. of the Interior. He said:
 ''The Geological Survey performed vastly important war work on the countrys s. metallic mineral resources, making a census and special studies of deposits of iron, manganese, tung- sten, zirconium, molybednum and quicksilver, extending further it's search for new deposits and prepar- ing a wall map showing the deposits of manganese ore in the United States.
 ''The Geological Survey collected weekly statistics of the production of copper. lead, zinc and aluminium and furnished them to the Govern ment purchasing agencies and coop erated with the War Industries Board d and Shipping Board in preparing tables and diagrams showing the sup plies of minerals available and the estimated requirements and it CO., operated with the Fuel Administra- tion in collecting statistics on the produ and movement of coal and coke, carrying along it's studies to dis cover how far water power might be developed to conserve the fuel supply
 tfThe Geological Survey worked in the oil and gas fields, both at home and abroad, to obtain potash and nj trates needed in the prosecution of
 the war, made examinations and re- search into helium gas supply for use in infating war balloons and studied the porous rocks to find a more

 Ordinarily the Geological Survey, as it is known, concerns itself with the business of mapping out mineral ized areas in the United States and its possessions, tracing water supplies, defining courses and sources of hy- dro-electric power, hunting up coal reserves, analyzing mineral waters, determining the country's storage of metalliferous wealth and otherwise .'tinkering around with transit, level, chain, rod, axe and stakes. Its op- erations usually take it hundreds of miles from transportation lines, save that it must move it's various camps from place to place by any primitive means at its command
 While Pershing's forces were fight ing their way north through the Ar gonne there was a camp of the Geo. logical Survey on the Iditarod River in Central Alaska which was testing out a platinum discovery, not to as certain how many costly watch cases and wedding rings and tiaras it could supply, but how much could be taken out for use in the manufacture of high explosives.
