Abundant Proof That It, Possesses In
MIGRATING Action That Affects
Growth of Plants.

Dew is yitalizing. not entirely be-
cause it is water but because it pos
sesses an invigorating action due part
ly at any rate to the fact that it Is
saturated with oxygen, and it has been
stated that during its formation per-
oxide OF hydrogen and some ozone are
developed. 1t is not improbable that
the peculiarly attractive and refresh
ing quality that marks the early-morn-
ing air has It's origin in this way. The
difficulty of inducing grass to flourish
under a tree in full leaf is we'll known
and is generally explained by saying
that the tree absorbs the nourishing
constituents Of the soil or that it keeps
the sunlight away from the grass and
protects i ercm rein Z Is doubtful!
whether any Of these explanations is
true, the real reason most probably
being that the vitalizing dew cannot
form upon the grass under a tree,
whereas as a rule both rain and light
can reach it.

Plateau Shelf Has Strange Crescent
Shaped Formations That Are
Packed Hard.

AS one makes the ascent of the
Andes from the Pacific port of Mol
lendo. Peru, following the line of the
Southern of Peru railway, the climb
to the divide is broken by two great
steps or widespreading shelves of des-
ert or pampa.
On the first Of these steps, about
two hours steep climb from the sea,
and at an altitude of from four thou
sand to five thousand feet, are located
the famous drifting sand hills of PERI.
The plateau is here about twenty
miles wide, the air thin and dry ana
no trace of vegetation to be seen, only
these gigantic crescent-shaped sand
dunes dotting the pampa as far as
the eye Can see.
Composed of fine gray crystal sand,
they CLEAN white against the brown
Of the desert, and their horns point
toward the prevailing south wind Of
this region. They are from fifteen
to twenty feet In breadth across the
thick part Of the crescent and some
times one hundred feet from horn to
horn. So tightly Is the sand packed
| that the feet Of the horses or mules
make little impression on 1t.

Honey Yield Hiaher.

The average yield Of surplus honey
in 1919 was so pounds to a colony Of
honey bees, as estimated by the bu-
reau Of crop estimates, United States
department Of agriculture. This is con-
siderably above average Of As pounds
In 1918, and Of Al 6-10 pounds for the
five years 1913-1917. The relative pro-
portions in which the honey of the
last two years vas marketed are indi-
Gated by SO for extracted honey, 81 for
comb honey and 10 for bulk honey.
About one-third Of the product goes to
soutside" markets.
