Ring Around the Sum
Said to BE Cause of
The Freakish w Gather

Unusual weather conditions In
all parts OF the world during the
past spring and early autumn,
have given rise 20 the question as
10 whether our climate IL affect
ed by u vast 10O-miIllon-mile ring
OF matter observed about the sun.
This faint, cone-shaped belt OF
light stretching up from the western
horizon has been visible In clear
skies before sunrise during the spring
and after sunset during the fall, ac-
cording to Scriven Bolton, r.. Il. A.
g., In Popular Science Monthly. 1t
Ia known 10 astronomers as the zodi-
acal light. They explain IL by saying
that the sun Is circled by huge flat
ring OF matter somewhat like the
rings OF saturn, and extending into
space for more than 100 million
miles, far beyond the earth and It's
orbit. Its position as seen from the
earth Is always edgewise; hence it's
cone-shaped appearance. The great
ring Ia composed OF a huge conglom-
GRAFTON OF minute particles, or met
eoric bodies, having rough surfaces,
and shining by reflected sunlight.
Like the earth, each particle moves
In its own ellipticle orbit around
the sun. The ring of matter appears
TO offer no resistance to the move
ments of the earth, Venus and Mer-
curry, whose orbits lie within its
boundaries.

Many Buffalo Being
Butchered AT State
Preserve AT RavaIIi

Between 900 and 800 buffalo
on the Montana national bison
range west OF AIissouIa, must be
slain this fall, Frank Rose, the
superintendent announces. A Gem
sus taken last fall showed 700
buffalo, 800 elk, rs mountain
sheep and 100 deer ON the range,
and an inspection OF the grasses
convinced the superintendent that
the range was about 40 per cent
overst0cked.
The sale Of buffalo to parks and
ZOOS Is not large enough to bring the
herd down to the required size. and
SO. large number will be slaught-
cred and sold on the meat market.
Each fall the herd Is reduced In this
manner, but this year q fer greater
number than ever will be hutchered.
The Montana buffalo herd IS the
third largest In the world. The
range containing $4,000 acres, is un.
der the supervision OF the United
States biological survey.
So lar Mr.. Rose has obtained the
services OF but two cowboys to help
him in segregating the animals to be
slaughtered. Few riders are willing
and able to do this work. The buff
falo is a stubborn animal. and chances
are ten to one that he will charge the
rider who attempts to cut him out of
the rest of the herd.
