PERU'S FISH CAN
SUPPLY THE WORLD.

New York-Peru's coastal waters
are teeming with enough fish to feed
the world and her islands are all YER
liable bird sanctuaries. according to
Robert Cushman Murphy, curator of
natural science of the Brooklyn mu-
scum, just returned from six months
exploration in South America with
800 photographs and 10000 feet OF
motion picture film. Mr.. Murphy
said that on one island he found as
many as 100000 birds of single
species.
But the fisheries of Peru. he said,
arc unorganized
Due to Current.
A few miles off the coast. the re-
turned explorer said, he let down a
net and drew it out of the sea filled
with four varieties of the most de-
licious edible crabs.
The wonderful fish and bird life"
OF Peru Mr.. Murphy attributed to the
Humboldt current, cold body of
oceanic water which flows along / 800
miles OF the coast. He made many
observations of this current, he said.
following those of Alexander Agassiz
and DR.. Robert F. Cocker of the United
Peru's proximity to the equator. he
said, would cause one to suppose that
it might have a temperature like that
OF Florida, its actual temperature was
more like that of Boston
Mr.. Murphy called attention to the
fact that the guano or fertilizer de-
posits OF Peru may be doubled by the
| conservation methods devised bv
F10 iC DOLL
described as zone of the most far
sighted and able economists in the
world" In furtherance of Mr.. Bal
lens plans, the explorer said, he adj
vocated increasing the breeding area
OF the guano producing birds. The
value OF the guanO deposits, he said,
was also due to the action of the Hum
boldt current, the cold winds from
which, blowing over the arid lands,
preserved the fertilizing qualities of
the bird lime.
The guano birds were enumerated
by Mr.. Murphy as the white breasted
cormorant, commercially worth SIS a
pair in Lima; the pelican and two
species of gannet By actual compu-
tation of the nests of some of these
birds per meter on one of the islands
hC Col1IudI6u lndI uuOf0 Iudu i ,UUU.UUU
Of that one species inhabited it.
Attempt Conservation.
In the period from 1910 to 1908. Mr..
Murphy said, many of the birds were
killed off and it is only in recent years
that efforts have been made to CON
serve this important resource of Peru.
President Leguia, and other prominent
men, he said, have encouraged for
eign scientific men to visit Peru for
the purpose of ascertaining the best
conservation methods.
Ocean freight rates Mr.. Murphy
said, might be affected by the com
petition which has sprung up since
the close of the war, for, he said,
eight or nine steamship lines-Dutch,
French. Italian, British and American
are now stopping at Peruvian ports.
Mr. Murphy, who is 81 years old
and graduate of Brown university,
is director of the Explorers club.
His expedition to Peru was aided f.
financially by the American Museum
of Natural History and the American
Geographical society.

WITH THE FARMERS.
(Continued from IA &c |


livestock are indicative of good farm
ing
3. Good steers and heifers bring
me more money than scrubs.
A. A scrub takes just as much in
feeding; consumes just as much feed;
puts it to less use and when he goes
to market, | am the loser
8. A good calf brings from SO to
$40 more than the scrub at weaving
time, and from $25 to $40 more when
mature
6. 1t requires six to eight months
more time and feeding to mature the
scrubs as compared with the good
steer. Time is money.
z. The market reports during the
year OF 1919 show depreciation in
prices &c to 10c per pound between
the scrub steer and the grade steer.
Blood will tell"
8. The more good steers I grow
and feed, the more | desire to have
on my farm.
Scrubs are repulsive to my pride
/ and to my sense of duty toward the
profession in which l am engaged.
10. Better cattle inspire me to
greater effort; they renew my belief
| in my profession; it is my duty to my
community, my state and nation to
give the best that is within me and
to acquaint my sons and daughters
with the best, for | am DESTROYS that
my children follow my profession.
More and better cattle set before
them the ideal of my life's work. The
scrub brings calamity to my home,
for it drives my boys and girls from
my fireside to the towns and into 9TH

| To Wool Growers.
| To give Grant county woods a good
name and to create a better market
for their product, local wool growers
! are considering the desirability of CO.
operating with the sheepmen of the
state in the collective sale of their

At a recent conference of repre-
sentatives Of the Wisconsin Sheep
Breeders Association, the College of
Agriculture, the State Division of
Markets, the Wisconsin Live Stock
Breeders Assn, the State Grange,
and the Wisconsin Branch of the Am
erican Society of Equity, plans were
laid for the collective marketing of
| Wisconsin woods and organization
was effected of the Wisconsin Division
of the Fleece Wool States Growers
Association. The direction of the or
ganization and the marketing of this
years pool was placed in the hands
of board of seven directors, consist
ing of James Dillon of Mondovi, pres
ident: P. j. Stevens of Cylon, vice
president; VIM. F. Renk of Sun Prair-
lie, ecretary-treasurer with George
McKerrow, Pewaukee, w Woodland,
Bloomer, G. G. Biederman, e, gertop
and Myron Churchill, Marinette, as
advisors.
The plan provides for the use of ex-
listing local marketing machinery or
the organization of special county or
community wool growers of the coun-
ty in the handling Of their CLIPS.

with having on its farms 33 $50 head

never idle, because I could not pass a

Il am confident the Americans. what
ever their points of view respecting

for the victims of Germany. The policy
of France. which / have declared
twenty times, is simple and entirely
open. We suffered. and Germany
pledged herself by the treaty to do GER

France asks her rights and no more.
France does not hate Germany. We

IRISH POLICY
TOBE BROADER
New British Control Officers
Favor Moderation and Will
Seek Sim Fein Wants

London, April 22-Eng1ands new
Irish policy may be something broader
than the existing home rule scheme
and not unlike dominion home rule,
says the Daily Sketch. Sir Hirmar
Greenwood. recently named chief sec
retary for Ireland and General Sir
Cecil F. n. Macready. newly appointed
military commander there are said to
favor moderation and are making at
tempts to determine just what the Sim
Fein wants. A favorable atmosphere
is being created and the government,
the newspaper says will go farther to
reach a settlement than is generally
believed
Newspaper reports have recently
speculated' on the nature of the policy
initiated by the government and 1t
seems the first steps in carrying out
present plans will be taken as soon
as Sir Hamar is reelected member of
parliament for Sunderland. Vi-count
Field Marshal French. lord lieutenant
for Ireland, will resign says the Sketch
and a clean sweep will be made OF Of
ficiaIs in Dublin Castle who are
charged with being largely responsible
for errors which have led to the present
situation in the island. Thus the way
to harmonious cooperation Will De
nayed. the newspaper asserts.
