THEY FLY SOUTH

New York-AP-One of the
largest shipments of furred-and-
feathered life ever flown to Latin
America vas completed recently
by Peruvian international Air
ways.
The cargo included 5000 baby
chicks from New Hampshire, des-
tined for Havana, 200 golden
finches and 100 doves from Ans
terdam, Holland, also bound for
Havana, and six Angora rabbits
from Maine for Lima. Peru. An
airline official said the chicks
would be raised for resale and
that the finches and doves were
for South American collectors and
geological gardens. The rabbits,
shipped to a Peruvian breeder,
arrived in Lima approximately "a
hours after leaving New York.

ON H BUTTON

Seattle-AP-H. C. Glickert is
a specialist in the "buttons-eye
view of presidential campaign
history. tit
His hobby is collecting presi-
dental campaign lapel buttons.
While others wait for political
speeches, he waits for campaign
buttons. There should be same
mighty interesting new buttons
coming out" he says.
His oldest is a faded tintype
worn by Stephen A. Douglas sup
porters when Douglas ran against
Abraham Lincoln in 1860. Large
pins and ribbons were the order
of the McKinley-Bryant era, but
the buttons really reached their
hey-day, says Glickert, in the
Roosevelt-Willkie campaign of
1910.
That's when bitter sarcasm
in slogans became prevalent and
people forgot man of the political
niceties, if any," he said. He said
about 600 different types of pins
were issued during that cam
paign and he got about half of
them.

tine officer with the city health
department, gets his pins from

A M FRET AUSTRALIANS

Sydney-AP - The Australian
government is going to be tough
er with seamen deserving over
seas ships in Australian ports.
immigration Minister Arthur c.
Calwell issued a reminder in a
recent statement that deserving
seamen can be declared prohibit
ed immigrants. and held in prison
until they are deported.
Such assertions totaled 1900
in 1917. Today an estimated 40
men a week r leaving overseas
ships in Australian ports.
An officer of an overseas ship
told a reporter: Many British
seamen plan months ahead to
desert in Australia. They have
been here before and like the
country. In many cases they have
made arrangements to take jobs
when they desert. Many have
become engaged to Australian
girls, and they desert to get mar
ried and settle here"

By making bearing tests in
the summer, when roads are dry

road surfaces are sometimes go

AP Science Reporter

EAST LANSING, Mich.-Soil
scientists have wired up Mother
Earth for tests like a human pa
tient getting a complete checkup.
They take her temperature, in
the air above the earth, and from
half an inch to go inches below
the surface. They know how
deep the earth is frozen.
They have a finger on her pulse
of life-giving water. They know
how much rain or snow falls,
how much penetrates, and how
deep it goes. They know how
much rain has rolled away, and
how much precious topsoil was
carried with if.
They know how much energy
the sky and sun scatter over the
patches of earth they are meas
uring. They know how much
wind blows.
What they are learning will
benefit farmers and city folk all
across the frost belt of the north
ern tier of states. 1t will help
control springtime floods, and tell
road-builders, pipe-layers, and
construction men things about
frost depth that they need to
know, in a hurry.
It's done with an amazing set
of instruments. which are almost
completely automatic. The work
is the Michigan Hydrologic Re-
search Project of the Michigan
Agricultural Experiment Station
in cooperation with the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture's Soil
Conservation Service. Heading it
are DR.. v. r. Gardner, expert
ment station director, DR.. c. E.
Miller, head of the department
of soil science, and George A.
Crabb,- Jr., Hydrologic Research
Project Supervisor.
The main purpose is to learn
how freezing and thawing of soils
affect run-off water. erosion,
and flood flow under different
conditions of land use.
The. tests III run on three
plots, one a woods, the other two
bearing different crops in differ
ent years.
Floods spilled forward this
spring because the ground was
frozen so deep. When SHOWS
melted and the top surface of the
ground thawed, the water seeped
down. But at a depth of 10
inches the soil was still frozen
and the water began to flow
downhill. The soil temperature
measurements. spread over wide
areas, could give warnings of
prime conditions for floods. And
the soil studies may show how
land S in the frost belt can
minimize flood dangers.
The amount of moisture in the
soil at different depths is OBJ
tanned by means of gypsum
blocks wired with two electrodes.
The amount of resistance to cur
rent depends on the wetness and
temperature of the block. Daily
records are obtained from "a
points below the surface.
One electrical device measures
the direction and velocity of the
wind. Another tells the total
miles of wind that pass over the
ground during the day.
How much energy radiates
from the sun and sky to the
earth is measured by pyrhelio-
meters. Such exact knowledge

So there was a general sigh

First, four of the nine STU
