Arctic explorer, now engaged on his eleventh expedition Into the Far North, report* lhe presence ' of swarms of mosqultoe* at Nam Labrador, his winter quarters. The public eye has been drawn thereby to ■ what constitutes one of the most curious of Arctic anomalies. Accustomed to the popular eoncep i tl«»n of the Northern regions as frigid I wastes devoid of animal and plant life, many will be surprised by the news Polar abounds in in cide-nts nf explorers who have suf sered mental and physical anguish from these Insects, A glimpse of Arctic conditions was i furnished early this year at lhe *es siona of the New Jersey Mosquito ExI termination association Arthur Gib sou.

Breed Throughout the World. Prior to ipuu the mosquito had received scant attention from the entomologist Subsequent discoveries that certain species were capable of transmitting malaria and yellow fever led to an Intensive study of the various genera. Modern science has recorded several hundred These in turn are classified among numerous genera and subfamilies. (Dependent only on the presence of standing water during some part of the year, mosquitoes breed In almost every locality of the world. The vast majority of species appear capable of existing and reproducing their kind on a purely vegetarian diet Lieutenant Commander MacMillan has experienced an exceptionally warm summer. The snows melted -nd the mosquitoes bred rapidly.

FINDS DEPOSIT OF POTASH DOUBLE THE PRESENT SUPPLY

Russian Geologist Says the Richest Field la Discovered In Ural Mountains.

Insect* in Dense Column. George W Melville, w-ho led the sue cessful search In ISSI aAd 1882 for rhe bodies of l*e Long and his companions. relates an experience tn northern Siberia. As the expedition's ship nosed Its way up the river en route to the field of action. Melville noticed what, appeared to be • great sumi-b.ink The “fulnk' rose suddenly, passing over each side of the steamer like a dense column of smoke. It was a bank of moaquitoe* and not, even rhe men’s calico headdress and buckskin gloves with laced wrists could prevent the tine midge* and bi ack flies from causing Intense discomfort. Adolf Erik Nordenskjold. whose completion of the Northeast passage In a single voyage (1878-TV) constitutes •me of the epics of Arctic travel, has left an early report -of the northern tnosqufto. "In west Greenland.” be writes, “the mosquito as far north as the southern part of Disco island ia still so terrible, etqtecially to the newcomer during the ffrstgdavs. that rhe face of anyone who without • veil ventures Into marshy grounds overgrown with bushes becomes In ■ few hours unrecognizable. The eyelids are closed with swelling and changed Into water filled bladders, and tumors are frn-med tn the head under the hair” . ... The experience* of Fridtjof Nansen In 1888 on bls memorable first crossing of Greenland bear ample witness to the prevailing oestilence that con fronts the native. What is probably the most graphic description of the trials borne by the explorer is found tn Nansen's account of that jonrney. The Incident related occurred on the east coast one morning prior to the crossing of the vast tee sheet. Morning of Horror. "1 awoke." writes Nunsen. "to And myself scratching my face vigorously and to see the whole tent full of mosquitoes. We had begun by taking gnutt pleasure In the company of-these creatures on the occasion of our first landing on the Greenland coast, but tills day cured ns completely of any predilections In that way. and If there is a mortting of my life on which t took back with unmitigated horror It Is the mornlng.l now record. 1 have not ceased to wonder.

Gave Up In Despair. “Wlterever we stcod. wherever we walked or ran. we carried with us. as lhe sun his planets, each our own little world of satellites, until at last tn our despair we gave ourselves over to the tormentors and, falling prostrate where we stocxi, suffered our martyrdom unresistingly. Then we launched our boats and fled to sea. Even here our pursuers followed us, but by whirling round u* in mad frenzy tarpaulins and all that came to hand, and eventually by getting the wind in our favor, we at last succeeded in beating off. or at least escaping from, our enemy. But the loss of blood on our side was. nevertheless, considerable. Never have 1 Id my fallen among such hungry mosquito**. But. I may add. Greenland is one m the countries of tlie world which 1* most visited by this plague.” From the numerous narrative* left by Arctic explorers of the tortures inflicted by mosquitoes it would seem as though they vied with each other in reporting the most infested region. Alfred H. Harrison in the review of his researches through the vicinity of the Mackenzie delta, in northern Canada. during 1905 to 19UT, voices the opinion that “in no other part of the world have 1 ever found the mosquitoes so bad as on the banks of the l‘eel river." He-records the case of two dogs that actually were stung to death. On the Anglo-American polar expedition in northern Alaska (19U6-U7). Capt. Ejnar Mikkelsen suffered similar trials. Rest was made impossible one evening by the hordes of mosquitoes that penetrated the tent covering. A burning smudge within the tent proved futile. Comfort of a doubtful nature was secured at last when the party abandoned sleep and kept the insects away uy continuous smoking. Stefensson is Inclined to pessimism where the public and the mosquito are concerned. “No one.” he suggests, “who has not been tn the Arctic, or near it. has any Idea what mosquitoes may be like. 1 have found if wise not to even try to explain, for although people are willing to believe any hocroi of the North if it centers around cold and Ice. they lose faith In your responsibility If vou try to tell them the truth about the Northern mosquito."

Size of Flock Very Important Likely to Demand More Feed and Attention Than Returns Warrant (Prepared by the United State* Department oi Agriculture.) In poultry raising on the farm it tnuy be poor management to raise a hit-and-miss number of fowls, such a number, for Instance, a* may hap(ien to batch from bidden nesti Poultry expert* of the United States l>epartment of Agriuclture suggest that farmers who are unable to keep approximately 200 hens limit their flocks to a size only large enough to supply the table with eggs and poultry meat throughout the year. In this way the gain is largely a by-product and the chickens will pick up much of their food from material that would be wasted. Attention and Feed. When a flock numbers lucre than enough for the home supply of eggs and meat, and 1* not a* large as 200. it is likely to demand more attention and more feed than the returns war rant; that Is. It will most likely not return enough proty to pay for the mauagemeni and attention necessary tn earing for It. But if poultry is maintained with an eye to profits it is worth managing. A flock of 200 can be divided readily Into two units for breeding purposes—--50 yearlings for production of breeding eggs and 150 pullets for market egg production Similarly a flock of 400 would be divided into 100 yearlings and two flocks of 150 pullets. Pullets are preferable for egg production, and the keeping of . flocks of about three times us many pullets as yearlings allows the poultry raiser to cull his flock wisely and retain only the best of the pullets for breeding stock. Concrete Successfully Used During the Winter Farmer* i Northern states use concrete a* successfuly during the winter time a* tn any other season of the year, by observing a few aimpl* precaution*. The water used in concrete made during th* cold season la brought to the boiling point Sand and stone are heated over a section of an old smoke stack in which a fire l as been built. As soon •» the concrete has been mixed, it is placed in the form* from which all Ice. snow and trost have been removed. the concrete ha* been placed it is protected, so that It will keep its heat as long as possible. Newi* placed floors, walks and other flat surfaces are covered with heavy pa[>er and then with straw or manure to a depth of 10 or 12 inches. Outside walls are frequently covered with canvas or straw. In very cold weather an “ticiosure is built around them, and the Interior is heated with an oil or a coke stove. As heat hastens rhe hardening process tn concrete, the material is protected against the cold weather for from two days to a week, if the tern perature can be kept at 00 degrees, two days’ protection Is sufficient It is, however, considered better practice to protect the material for a week. Experiments Point Out Time to Vaccinate Pigs Many experiments point out that the right time to vaccinate a pig for cholera Is when the anima 1 is tn good Lealth It is also a gold plan to vaccinate early in the spring before the pigs have been weaned and exposed to the diseases in the hog lot. One can ..ermanentiy immunize pigs against cholera by vaccinating when they are between twenty f >nr hours and* two weeks old. It is also cheaper to vaccinate a two-weeks-old pig than one that Is older, the cost being only 14 cents, it is also easier to handle younger pigs and tn case of death one does not lose much because rhe Investment tn feed and ca. - Is not very much ♦' Agricultural Squibs leaves and trash which are burned can add no humus to the soil; better -ompost them. • • • SntootK Clean one-inch lumber, braced by two by fours, is used for ruost concrete forms. • • • If a concrete curb is built around a hog-feeding floor, the animals will be 'prevented from pushing the grain off the feeding surface. •• • ' If you have no. ini’k. feed young pi|> in winter a mixture of two parts of tankage, one part linseed meal and one part chopped aifitlfb. with their corn.

Grazing of Alfalfa At one time it was thought that the grazing of ahalft was fatal to the crop. While It undoubtedly thrives best under the system of cutting, still when carefully managed, alfalfa can be grazed with sheep. In doing this, however.
