Preserved in Museum

best existing specimen Of The old
Viking ships. This Is known AS the
npsherg ship II VAS discovered In

on the 0csherg- Odpgaardon farm in
the county of vestfold. near little
stream about four kilometers from the
sen. II was covered by stones and
neat. which aided in its preservation.
Tie ship was the pleasure yacht OF Il
queen during life and tile burial cham
Der for herself and her personal ef-
fects, as was customary In those times,
after death. The queen and her ac-
companying bondwoman were laid in
the burial chamber about the middle
of the Ninth century.
The ship Is an open clinker-built
boat constructed of oak, 21.5 meters
long and ia maximum width of 5
meters. She was supplied with
rudder at the starboard side Of the
stern. From the prov ornamental
ton 1t is believed that she was built
about the year 500. She was OF the
Femtansessa class, |, e., rowed BY 30
men.
She was robbed. presumably in the
Eleventh century. and the gold and

Experts See No Future
for Hemp Production

Hemp. once profitable crop in this
country, has dwinded in importance
and the vehicle through which 1t has
lost its market was the principal
market In former years. 1t Is esti-
mated that in the early Colonial days
1t took the product of 1000 acres Of
hemp to make the ropes necessary 10
outfit single sailing vessel of any
size.
Now ships bring jute from India and
this Importation, due to its much low.
err price, has driven hemp from the
market to a large extent. In spite Of
this loss OF market. glowing pictures
of prosperity to be had from hemp
growing are painted for farmers who
have had no experience with the crop.
Agents with something to sell have
induced many farmers to attempt
crops, but little hope OF success is
held out by Department Of Agricul-
ture officials, who point out that by.
no means is the general run OF land
suitable for hemp production. Even II
1t were, there still remains the fact
that the demand for hemp Is more
than filled by present sources, with
the result that the prices are too low
to make a crop an attractive PROPOSE
ton financially for the grower.--Wash
