LIVED MANY CENTURIES AGO
Skeleton Of Giant Wombat, Recent,
Found In Tasmania, Believed to
Be 10000 Years Old.

A complete skeleton recently discov.

outskirts Of the wild marshy region.
Of Northwest Tasmania confirms the
existence 10000 or 10000 years ago Of
giant wombat Zone of the pouched
animals peculiar to the Antipodes).
The discovery was made by Mr..
Lovett, farmer, who was digging q
drain into the swamp.
The skeleton lay buried in six feet
Of decayed vegetable matter resting on
sand that was once the bed Of a lake.
Mr.. Scott Of the Launceston museum
examined and excavated the skeleton
and expressed the opinion that tn.

10000 years ago. says the London
Daily Mall. 1t is the only specimen
yet discovered. In life the animal

RELATION OF; BIRDS no INSECTS {,

The biotlc. balance between Insects
and birds n longer exists. This ts to
a large degree due to the large num-
Der of birds man requires for eco
nomic purposes each year. In our
rapid progress we have upset many
Of the balances Of nature. The forests
have been cut away, foreign trees
to, this country and with them insect
pests. This Introduction Of new plants
was followed by serious results such
as the cases of, the English. Sparrow,
the Gypsy Moth, and the Russian
Thistle. ~ '
Wild animals and birds have been
killed and are killed even to this day.
Large areas are. O planted to spec
ial crops; these fields 4of grain and
vineyards and orchards give the in
sects better chances to thrive and
multiply. Thus man has provided in
sects with plenty. of food and ideal
tiply and at the same time-the native
birds, natural enemies Of the insects
have been destroyed. This explains
why the potato bug and the chinch
bug in earlier days overran the land.
AS a result Of these. conditions the u:
s. has become noted as, the greatest
sufferer from insect pests of any
country on the a or the. globe. En-
tomologfsts have, estimated that In

Cows Came First.
When we bought the place in the
fall%Sof 1918, the first thing we got
after, the section of land, was a cow,
. part Jersey. The second thing we
bought was a milk pail; then an in
cubator, and then another COW. We
still have the first two ows and their
calves. The third purchase was a
full-blooded registered Guernsey. We
intend to have all Guernseys, and are
working up to pure bred stock of the
May Rose strain. There are three
pure bred; Guernseys in our herd of
fourteen cows now. We have a pure
bred Guernsey sire.

know that we could make a &c OF

Profits From Milk.
Now we are milking eight cows,
and selling seven gallons OF milk daily.
We keep books very carefully Inc

feeding her. In June our income from
eight COWS was $212.82, and we did
almost as well in July.
We are members of the COY test

records. We have a Babcock tester.
Since the beginning we have weighed
the milk SO that we could tell how
we were coming out. Then at the end
of the yea we know which COWS are
paying their way.
There are about twenty-eight
members in the association owning
in all. 500 cows. We have the high

241.4 pounds of butter fat in six

The end of September discloses
signs of Improvement in the business
situation, and while for the most part
they relate to s~easonable conditions.
some of the changes are indicative OF
a gradual restoration of the industrial
equilibrium which is necessary to per-
manent prosperity.
The shoe industry and the cotton
and wooden goods industries are now
generally active. Raw cotton has ad-

about II cents per pound to about 20
cents, and his a put strength nto

Cotton goods, however, have not ad-

ton, and although the mills having
stocks OF IL and ~ cent raw material
on hand are able to work them up
and sell the goods. the pinch will
come when they have to buy cotton
at the new quotation and advance
the price of goods accordingly.
Retail merchants are vigorously
opposing advances in all textiles and
insisting that lower prices are neces-
