The Gulf Stream

moving towards Iceland, one
curving down past Spain, and
one flowing past the west coast
Of Ireland and Scotland. and
reaching even the west coast OF
Norway.
The Gulf Stream has a pecu-
liar cross-section. The top Of it
is liked a slightly rounded roof.
If ship drifting along the
Gulf Stream lowers a boat. the
latter drifts either to east or
west, depending upon which side
of the axis Of the stream it hap
pens to be on: but the vessel
drifts along with the stream
in the direction Of its course.
The shallow roof current
from the middle toward either
edge carries the boat to one
side; but the larger vessel,
which rests deep in the stream,
is not affected by this superb
cial transverse flow and drifts
with the Gulf Stream itself.
Wreckage on the outer edge OF
the Gulf Stream is not thrown
on the North American coast,
being unable to stem the east
ward flow of the roof-current.
Every now and then, varia-
tions in the course Of the Gull
Stream are noted. Such O va
ration was reported not long
ago by Sir Arthur Rostron, mas
ter Of the Berengaria. Such
variations, however, are always
comparatively small. The Gulf
Stream does not always flow
in the direction set down on
the chart.
In the Northern Hemisphere
the winds drive the water to
the right, and the rotation Of
the globe deviates the water to
the right, in the Northern Hemi.
sphere. The ''cold wall" which
separates it from the coast Of
North America has a pro.
nounced effect upon the course
of the Gulf Stream. Other in
fluences which affect the Gulf
Stream are the tides, the by.
draulic head in the Gulf Of
Mexico, and the temperature,
salinity and density Of the
waters. Fluctuations or varia-
tionS in the Gulf Stream are
due to the combined effect Of
all meteorological and oceano-
graphical conditions.

One of the most remarkable
features Of the countless phe-
nomena of the sea, which is al
most infinite in its variety, is the
Gulf Stream. Scientists have
studied it for many years, but
. it is open to question whether
: any adequate explanation Of its
origin have ever been found.
It is a mighty river in the
ocean, and its magnitude may be
realized when we state that the
body Of water which the Mis-
sippi River empties into the Gulf
Of Mexico Is not equal to one
tWo-thousandth part Of the vol
urne which flows from the Gulf
Of Mexico in the form Of the
Gulf Stream.
st This mighty oceanic river Of
warm water has banks and bot
tom-not Of earth, but of cold
water. It's waters are not only
warm, but blue-an indigo blue
all the way from the Gulf Of
Mexico to the Carolina coast.
Its width varies from 40 to SO
miles; it is about 200 fathomS
deep, and it flows steadily along
with a velocity Of three and a
half to five miles per hour. The
line of junction with common
sea water is very plain, and
sometimes one-half Of a vessel
may be seen to be submerged in
the Gulf Stream and the other
half in the common water Of the
sea.
From the South American
coast a great flood of warm
water sweeps through the Carib-
bean Sea into the Gulf Of
Mexico. Out Of the Gulf there
flows, between the Peninsula of
Florida on one side and Cuba
and the Bahamas on the other,
this mighty volume of the Gull
Stream. If flows northward
roughly parallel to the coast Of
North America: and its tempera-
ture off Sandy Hook is as high
aS IS degrees Fahrenheit.
Finally when it encounters
the southwest winds, it is di-
Verted from its course and turns
eastward in its flow across the
Atlantic. II broadens in its
flow, with q consequent de-
crease in velocity. In its sweep
across the Atlantic, it forms

of age, have been married "a

certainly haven't sacrificed MS

done pretty well. We own oui

a lot and have fine friends.
Best Of all, the children are
turning out great.
OF course they were a big
job, but the youngest have
been taught to wait on them
selves and the house so
arranged that they could. The
boys make up beds, sweep, dust
and wash dishes as well as the
girls. There are still eight in
the grades and two babies at
home. so things are pretty
lively. But we make them feel
it is their home as much as
ours and they can invite any
one they want, If they'll just
ask permission in advance.

love to go to baseball games
have a chance to go in the al

are going to be improvements
from time to time. But night
football is already here; I have
heard no criticisms Of it. The

A Very Short Story

On dark night, a mysterious
figure crept, step at time, put
ting first one foot in front and
then the other, across the meadow,
thence over a gully, and then away
into the bushes. In a moment it
emerged from the other side, and
with feathery tread continued in
the direction of a lonely looking
house that was enveloped in the
inky darkness of a clump of trees.
Then hands of the dark figure
that moved so cautiously through
side gate and into the rear yard,
reached forth and after lingering
nervously at a door, disappeared
inside, closing it gently behind him.
Soon the figure emerged and skunk
away and was completely swallow
ed up by the darkness.

WHAT ABOUT THE
PERENNIAL WEEDS

The perennial weed problem in
Guiding wild morning glory, star
thistle, Siberian mustard, quack
grass, sand dock and perennial
shade is again coming to the fore
due to the fact that these weeds
are showing up. Farmers should
Immediately take stock Of any Of
these serious perennial weeds and
take steps to prevent their spread
and later, steps toward control. We
would urge that whenever possible,
no cultivation be done through
these perennial weed patches as
most of them spread quite readily
from broken off pieces of the root
stock or under ground stem from
which new buds and new roots will
develop. Occasionally it is necess-
airy to ditch through these and
then one should stop after getting
through the patch and clean off

ditching implement so as to pre-
vent spreading over wider area.
Last year number of these
weed patches were treated with the
clover treatment. Several of these
have been looked over recently.
Two morning glory plots, one
treated during July and the other
during August, show comparative
ly few plants growing in compar-
ison to the thick mat of growth
present last season. Undoubtedly
there are some plots where treat
ment has not brought as good re-
suits as was secured on these two
places. We believe, however, that
with some information toward the
close of the treating season last
year that farmers may treat with
a great deal more assurance OF
good control in one year than has
been the case in many places last
year. One field which had two
heavily infested spots of morning
glory treated during July had the
top growth all killed within a few
days. Following this, secondary
growth was produced which grew
well up into young fruit trees on
the area. The man in charge want
ed to spray again but was advised
to let the patch go until later. OBJ
servation by the county agent,
however, rather late in the sea-
son made him feel that second
spraying would probably be nee
essary. During the following sea-
son, however, the water subbed
little on this piece and this seem
ed to bring the chlorate again in
contact with the plants and prac-
tically all Of the growth was again
killed before frost. This spring
there was anly few small patches
of the weed growth. In another
field where an area approximately
100 feet long by 80 feet wide, al
most a solid mass, was treated, the
top growth was all killed within a
day and secondary growth came
back, the farmer feeling quite dis
satisfied with the treatment altho
he had been informed that there
would be second growth. This
spring only a few small patches
SNOW, these being largely around
the edge where they probably were
not well sprayed.
Farmers wishing to see what the
chlorate will do on the perennial
weeds can visit patches in their
own community. Anyone wishing
this information will he given the
location of the treated patches by

newly Matched worms. Under fav-
orable weather conditions, the first
worms are Matched 10 days after
the first codling moth energies.
Entomologists tell us that the cod
ling moth begin laying eggs when
the evening temperatures for three
consecutive nights is above so de-
grees F. Moth emergence can be
determined by the use of the moth
traps. Every orchardist should
take care of from 8 to 6 moth
traps in his orchard. These traps
should be used throughout the sea-
son and the spray program for
that orchard based on the moth
trap records. Two orchards only
half a mile apart may vary at the
peak of moth emergence from
three days to week.
The use of the moth traps should
he supplemented by checking the
egg deposit. The first eggs are
laid on the leaves but later they
may be found on the fruit. The
egg is pearly white about the size
of pinhead and resembles a thin
convex disk. A few days after the
egg is laid a red ring becomes ap-
parent and the day before the
worm matches a black spot, the
head of the worm, is easily seen.
BY determining the moth emer-
gence by the use of traps and also
checking the egg deposit by obser-
walton, more efficient spray pro-
gram may be outlined, whether ar
senate of lead alone or an oil-lead
arsenate combination is to he used.
