Better Weather Forecasts.

Weather forecasts for months ahead
will be possible within a few years as
Il direct result of solar observations.
r. NJ. Stewart, assistant director of
the Dominion observatory, told the
Royal Astronomical Society of Canada.
The sun Is the great influence over
varying weather conditions on the
earth, and recent observations of it
have led to the belief that observa-
tories will be able to predict with ac-
curacy the general trend of weather
for six months or even year ahead,
he said.
To be able TO foreten the amount
of precipitation and the general
temperature for several months in
advance may take so or even 100
years of observation, he added, but
expressed the confidence of the OBJ
servatory that this end would be
reached.

MONOPOLY LOST BY GERMANY
ing the Rare Sugars Required
for Scientific Purposes.

Not least among the triumphs of
the new American chemical industry
has been the production of the rare
sugars, so long a German monopoly.
The sugars were called for by the
small hospitals, as they are required
in small amount in meteorological
laboratOries-one of them, for in
stance, being the most sensitive slim
ulent of typhoid growth, while 9th
ers serve in the detection of cholera
germ. The infinite care necessary to
prepare them in a state of absolute
purity makes their cost seemingly
enormous. The most expensive rare
sugar catalOgued is stated by Drug
and Chemical Markets to be dulctol,
at 1919 a pound, while mannose is
worth $40 a pound. This is a deli
cate and delicious SWEET derived from
mama. which is secreted in thin scales
from certain trees and shrubs. and
with which the children of Israel were
miraculOusly fed during their wander
ings in the wilderness. Nylose. quoted
at $120 a pound, is made from the corn
cob; inulin is obtained from the bulb
of the dahlia at certain seasons of the
year Other rare sugars are-aribi-
nose at 500 at pound; Ievulose. $50
a pound, and raffinOSe, SO a pound.

GHOST COAST OFEURoPE.
Phantom Lights and Death Ships on
Shores of Cornwall.
lFrom the National Mariner

From the National AIarine.)
All along the Cornish shores the phan-
tom ship is thoroughly believed in, as
also are the phantom lights. Some
years ago schooner rugged vessel made
signals of distress to the west of St
Ives Bay. \ cable that put out reached
her, and one of the seamen made a
grasp at her bulwarks in order to lump
on board; bat his hand met nothing
solid. and as he tumbled back into the
boat the schooner and her sailing lights
disappeared in the darkness. Next
morning a schooner out of the port of
London was wrecked within the same
vicinity and all on board her persisted
The phantom lights are seen generally
before a gale: the Cornish seamen call
them Jack Harry : lights. and the
ship seen resembles the one that is sub
sequently wrecked.
The death ship is a superstition pc
culiar TO Cornwall With black hull
and stumpy bowsprit, she comes in,
with all her canvas set, against the

MUST USE FOUR LANGUAGES
Advertisers In Turkey Necessarily
Under Handicap That Amounts
to a Good Deal.

In order to advertise in CONSTANT
nople it is necessary to use four Ian
guages. The market is hard to cult
vate, but newspapers give good results
there. The population of CONSTANT
nople is very cosmopolitan, and all the
foreigners speak their own language
and read their own newspapers, writes
Trade Commissioner Eliot G. Mears.
To reach the public in general, adver-
tisements should be published in news
papers of at least four languages.
However, the best results are OBJ
tanned by publication in Turkish news
papers, for, on the one hand, the Turk
ish population is most numerous, and
on the other the Turkish reader is more
susceptible to the claims of advertise
ments than are Europeans and Ar
menians. 1t has been found by eXpe-
rience that advertising in newspapers
gives very good results in CONSTANT
nople, especially if it is pushed Wig
Orously.
No advertising is carried on tram
cars. Street advertising is not pro-
tected by law and cannot be recon-
mended TO foreign concerns. The cir
ulation of newspapers is not great.
French newspapers have an approx
mate issue of 5000 to 5000, Greek f.
COO to 10000, Armenian 1000 to 5000,
and Turkish 10000 to $4,000.

German "Thorouqhness."

Max Walter, head of a boys train
ing school in Frankfort, tells the fol-
lowing story by way of illustrating
German thoroughness:
A venerable teacher in one of Ger
many's preparatory schools was dis
tractedly ambling about his study one
day when he noticed a stray piece of
paper. Picking it up he saw that it
was a Latin composition from one of
his devoted disciples.
On looking at it more closely he de-
tected an error which he had over
looked. Seating himself at his desk,
he dipped his pen in good red ink and
made the necessary correction. He
then folded the paper into a neat
roll, stuck it in the fire. and with it
lighted his pipe.

of the most beautiful of all these silks IS
a rich. deep gold in color. inst as il comes
from the spinneretS of the worm. No
chemical IS fed to the worms, states DIR.
OslgIan, but the difference in color IS due
to variations in quantity and quality of
food given before the worm ceases eating

The matter of the difference i'm produc

due to new food tree. produced by the
discovered for the first time in New Or
leans. The tree is n graft of the null
berry on the Usage orange. producing a
larger more suceulent leaf than the null
berry tree, and one of different shape.
Feeding on leaves from this tree. the
silkworms produce from 600 to 500 yards
more to the cocoon.
As soon as this cocoon is finished man

Relnlans Teach Farming.

The Belgian government has hit
upon a novel scheme of teaching the
farmers of the country better methods
Of farming, says Motor. The idea Of
a school for farmers is not new. but
the idea of taking the school to the
farmer by means of q motor caravan
is certainly novel. The school build
ing consists of three units, one pow
cred with a gasoline motor; in short
a building section on a motor truck.
With this powered unit go two trail
ers and the three rolled into position
and joined together makes the CON-
modious and convenient classroom.
