Patents

The extension Of patent and the re-
issue of q patent are entirely differ
ent from each other. Under the pat
ent laws, by an extension of a pat
ent is meant a prOlongation of its life,
so that the patent remains in force
through an extended period of time.
When the term of a patent was made
IL years in the year 1861, the law re
speeding extension was modified so as
to provide that an extension shall be
granted only by special act of congress-
the effect of which has been that ex-
tensions have not been granted since
such modification took effect. A re-
issue Of a patent consists of the grant
of an amended patent in the place of
one which the patent office permits the
patentee to surrender because it is in
operative or invalid on account of a
defective or insufficient specification,
or on account of the patentee having
claimed in the original patent as to his
invention or discovery more than he
had right to claim as new.

Little Is Understood
of Insect Migration

There is, Of course, great deal that

your most dry-as-dust professor is left
Mt the counter of his laboratory with
his mouth open and his short-sighted
eyes raised in a childish query. Still,
he has detected law and order and
reasonableness, and the succession of
cause and effect In many branches Of
biology, including bird migration.
1T is not so with insect migration,
which may be on a big scale. This re-
mains a thorough going miracle, still
quite unplumbed. In England we en-
tertain quite a considerable number of
butterflies from overseas, though their
arrival or passage over the sea is
rarely observed But such little flights
Of hundred miles or so are as moth
ing compared with some recent ex-
Amples.
Butterflies will fly 5000 miles on oc-
easion. That lovely creature-not so
common here as we could wlsh-the
painted lady, has appeared in Ice
hand at the end of a journey-so It
is credibly alleged-frOm Africa

faies have settled on ships in the Medi-

north. So Africa certainly exchanges

Wild Pigeons All Gone

Vast numbers of wild pigeons were
seen in this country prior to 1868.
though not in such great numbers as
earlier in the century. namely, 1900 to
1850. The slaughter of these pigeons
ragged for years with nets, traps and
guns and by 1884 there were very few
of the wild pigeons seen in this coun-
try. BY 1900 they had dwlndled down
to n few specimens left in captivity
In Milwaukee and in the Cincinnati
zoo. Martha, the last known Wild
pigeon, died 2 p. M, August %, 1914,
at the age of Twenty-Five. According
TO all pathological data available.
she was the last of her tribe in the
world Martha's mate died in 1910
and though prize of $1,000 was of
fered for a mate, none was ever found

HONEY; IT'S PURITY
Eva Wilcox

Since the passage of the pure food
laws a number of years ago practic-
lily all honeys are pure. 1t would be
difficult to find specimen of impure
honey exposed for sale in any store.
Some people seem to think that the
eranulation or candying of honey in
1icates that it is adulterated. The
contrary is the case. Granulation is
definite and positive evidence of
purity. Cold induces granulation.
Honey and water mixed will not
freeze, hence it is used as an anti
freeze solution in automobile radia-
tors. even here in River Falls. In
making honey candies, Judges, ETC.,
i is necessary TO use only about
tablespoon of honey to a cup of sugar
"r the candy will be soft and sticky.

Association guarantees the purity of

Older Than History

An old -encampment, so old that his
tory has no record of when it was
built, has been presented to the Brit
ish nation.
This is Cissbury ring, near Wor-
tning, high up on the South downs,
within sight of both the Isle of Wight
and Beachy head.
The camp covers so acres, but it's
greatest interest is not in its fortified
earthworks, the finest In the district,
but as a factory for flint instruments

factory consists Of two shafts sunk to

by a tunnel. Quantities of arrow

found I'm these shafts.-Family Herald

Meteoric Visitors

1t is computed that between 10000
600 and 20,000000 strike the earth's
atmosphere daily. Two or three mete-
Orites are seen TO fall yearly. Since
a large part of the earth is covered
with water or uninhabited, It is
thought probable that about 100 strike
the earth annually. 1t is not known
positively that meteors and meteorites
are composed of the same materials.
