An old clipper ship, the Glory of the Seas, which 35 years ago set a between San Francisco and Australia, is be- ing broken up at Tacoma, Wash., following the discovery that barna- | cles have eaten into her hull beyond Tepair. The stout old ship was built at the famous Donald McKay yards in Boston, Mass., in 1869, and since then has sailed on all the seven seas and called at most of the important ports around the globe. Some years ago the Glory of the Seas was purchased by a Tacoma fish company and was put in the service Each spring she would spread her canvas and sail away to the north, carrying supplies and employees for the Alaska canneries operated by the ! company and in the fall would re- | turn with the season’s catch.

WITH RESERVATIONS SEX OF EGGS AND CHICKENS Department of Agriculture Says There | Is No Dependable Method to Determine Sex. (Prepared by the United States Department | of Agriculture.) Raisers of poultry have long wished for a reliable means for determining the sex of chicks and of eggs to be used for hatching, but, in spite of the promise of various manufacturers of | devices, the United States Department of Agriculture says there is no very dependable method for determining the sex of chicken that a certain egg will must breeds, The department has made tests of a number of devices claimed bv the Barred Plymouth Rock Cockerel.

In all cases they have been found to ;be useless for the purpose, as two persons could never get the same re- sult with a lot of eggs, and hatching tests showed that one could do just | as well by closing his eyes and picking out the eggs at random.

RAINBOW STONES South Australia seeks 4 market for its white opals—very beautiful gem stones of a kind peculiar to that part of the world. The chief com- mercial obstacle lies in the super- bring misfortune to the owner. This silly notion does not worry Ameri- cans much and in the United States opals are much admired and com- monly worn. In Europe, however, it has a surprising grip. According- ly, the producers are going to put their white opals on the market un- der ‘another name. They will be called “iridots,” after the word for rainbow.—Pittsburgh Dis- patch, GOOD WORK RECOGNIZED Mrs. Margeret Brown, a woman of seventy, has been awarded a gold brooch and a letter of thanks by the British National Lifeboat tion.

Those who know the breed well are able to distinguish between the sexes of Leg- horns when they are three to four weeks old. The sexes of the medium- weight breeds, with the exception giv- en above, have the same appearance until the chicks are 10 or 12 weeks old. The surface sex differences in the Asiatic breeds are not as apparent up until the birds are three or four months old. There may be differences that will possible to sort the sexes GREAT IMPORTANCE OF OATS Does Much to Build Up Strong Frame and Muscle.

And if you could look below the surface and examine a cross- | section of the seed bed you'd find also that in many | places the frost has lifted the surface soil from the sub- soil, leaving air spaces between the subsoil and seed bed. These air pockets prevent moisture from rising from | the subsoil reservoir and starve the plants. | A Dunham Culti-Packer will close up the cracks, press down frost humps, firm the soil around the roots, practically resetting each dislocated plant—and will fill up the air pockets, re- establishing contact between the subsoil and see bed. | And because it repairs in this way the damage done by the frost, a Dunham Culti-Packer will prevent a considerable amount of winter killing, thereby tincreasing the yield of winter wheat. This is not theory but a proved fact. The Dunham Culti-Packer is also of exceptional value in prepar- ing a seed bed for spring crops. It crushes the hard lumps, fille air pockets, and packs loose soil, preventing soil-blowing. Also valuable as an alfalfa renovator.
