Scene of Much Warfare.

Since ihe Si. Lawrence is the houn- dary separating Canada and the Unit ed States, it was only natural that in the wars between the French and the English, and between England and the American colonists, the Thousand is lands were the scene of important campaigns.
 Some of the early struggles be- tween the Iroquois and the Algonquins were fought in the neighborhood. In the French-English war many battles took place among the islands and on the adjoining shores. In the Revolu- ton and in the War of 1912, the de- fense of the section was considered of decided importance. In the Patriots war, with it's recurrent outbreaks in 1897 and 1889. many of the more i'm portant clashes took place on this part of the river. Notable among these were the capture of the British frigate Sir Robert Peel, near Wells island, and the battle of the Windmill, near Prescott, in 1888.

Effect of DayIiaht on Plants.

Investigation of length of daylight on plant life conducted by the United States Bureau of Plant Industry in dicates the importance of this factor in its development. Formation of bulbs is induced by excessively long days, while formation of tubers com monly results from excessively short days. This deposition of carbohydrate in relatively condensed or dehydrated form as result of an unfavOrable light period indicates marked loss of power to utilize the products of photo synthesis in elongating the stem or in developing flower and fruit, condi- tion we'll exemplitied in the stemless or leaf-rosette form of foliage devel- opment. The opposite change toward the Optimal day length or stem-elon- gation may rescue typical annual plants from impending death and eff feet more or less complete rejuvenes. cence.

Speed of Migrating Birds.

Migrating birds do not fly at their fastest. Their migration speed is us- ually from 30 to 40 miles an hour and rarely exceeds 50. Flights of few hours a night, alternating with rests of one or more days, make the spring advance very slow, averaging for all species not more than 23 miles a day, but with great variations of the daily rate among the different species. The exact number of miles which a partic- ular bird makes during one days jour ney has not yet been determined and cannot be ascertained until the tag ging or banding of birds hy means of metal rings is carried out on far more extensive sc;lie tnanGias ses bs.s.n possible.

MOVED WALL WITHOUT INJURY
Engineering Experts Proved 1t Nc Trick at All to Lengthen Big
 Buffalo Church.

In olden days, when the medieval cathedral builders wished to lengthen one of their great churches (and this happened very frequently, there was nothing for 1t but to pull down the western wall with its two towers, if 1t possessed any, or the eastern face, and lengthen the structure to the de sired extent.
 Today, however, thanks to the highly developed art of "house moving" we can lengthen church without any preliminary destruction of its princi pal front. AS witness of this, the front of the Central Presbyterian church, Buffalo, was recently moved 30 feet eastward, to permit a lengthening of the auditorium to that extent. The front of the building is 7S feet wide over the lateral buttresses, 65 feet high and 8 feet wide at the thickest parts. The weight of the wall, as moved, is 1000 tons.
 The preliminary operations consist ed of removing the front, preparing the new foundations, 30 feet to the eastward, and making clean cut through the roof and through the side walls, where they abutted against the church front. While this was being done the front wall was jacked up upon rollers. The work of moving the 1,OOOton mass was done by means of screw-jacks, operated by 15 men, and the wall completed its journey of 30 feet without injury in 16 hours Scientific American.

CREDIT TO AMERICAN RULE
Affairs of Colony of Pago Pago, in the South Seas, Declared Admirably
 Managed.

According to Randolph Bedford, in a recent number of Our World, Pago Pago is the "happiest community on earth"
 This island in the Samoan group is the southernmost outpost of American government. Little has been said about this colony of ours; probably there are great many Americans who do not even know that we have it. But in our administration of it's affairs we have demonstrated, accord ing to Mir. Bedford, who is an Aus tralian globe trotter and journalist, that we govern our colonies better than we govern ourselves.
 The total of the annual taxes lev fed on the natives is just $7. It Is with mingled feelings that one reads of what Uncle Sam can accomplish for $7 year if he has to. The Sam oan, according to Mir. Bedford, gets for this expenditure, protection, work, cleanliness, electric light, good water supply. cement roads and edpcation." :" When Spanish influenza was raging through the islands of the South seas. taking cruel toll among the natives, 1t passed Pago by. There was not a single case throughout the entire cpl demic. "Pago Is q long march ahead of the average western Pacific settle ment administered by the white man. The native has succeeded at no per sonal cost to the efficiency of the American engineer; to the smooth roads that bear his bicycle; aye, ard to the picture show and ice cream of California"
