AS result Of cooperative sales,
commonly termed "better-sire sales"
because Of their nature and purpose,
progressive live stock owners in Ken

bulls this year. The majority of the
bulls arc to be used for improving
grade herds. The number Of bulls dis

include those distributed through pri~

VIADUCT HAS NO EFFECT
ON THE CLIMATE OF EUROPE

The Flagler viaduct to Key West
has no effect on the Gulf Stream, on
conditions in the North Atlantic Ocean
nor on the climate or weather of
western Europe, the Weather Bureau
Of the United States Department of
Agriculture says positively, notwith-
standing recent press assertains to
the contrary. There is no record of
any appreciable changes having oc-
CURED in the Gulf Stream other than
the slight notifications that occur in
all oceanic currents. These have no
effect on the climate Of Europe except
AS the general temperatures Of the
waters Of the ocean are raised or low
cred with the fluctuations in the tenn
peraturcs and strength Of these and
other currents as n whole.
The extension Of the Florida Coast
Railroad over the so-called Flagler
viaduct to Key West can have no pos
sible effect on the force, strength, or
temperature of the Gulf Stream it.

sonry arch railway structure carrying
transportation over the very shallow
shores and keys Of the Florida penin-
sula. At no point is the relative
depth Of the water more than few
feet. The real channel of the Gulf
Stream is far to the south Of this
shallow shore line, and it is certain
that the footings Of the viaduct can
have no effect whatever on the chan
mel between Florida and Cuba, where
the Gulf Stream starts on it's course
from the Gulf Of Mexico into the At
lantic Ocean.
The climate of western Europe is
Influenced very greatly by the ocean
