The matter of the International Fur Conference which ls proposed to be held in Charlottetown early in July was brought up by D. 0. Stewart and enthusiastically re- ceived. The Association will lend its best endeavors to make it a success and no doubt ‘the Silver Fox Breeders’ and Exhibitors’ As- sociation will do like wise. Premier Jones alld his Government have given it their blessing. The reason for Prince Edward Island being selected Is that it is the birthplace of the Silver Fox industry and for that reason Norwegians. S-wezles.

DON‘! STABVE UNDORN LAMB (Experimental Farm News About halfway through thc winter the feeding of pregnant vlves approaches its most critical stage. The unborn lambs are then developing in size and making larg'er demands on the ewe. While it is true that the pregnant ewe will largely supply these demands at the expense of her own body. even though undernourished, it 1s false economy to force her to do this, says s. B. Williams, Division of Animal Husbandry, Central Experimental Farm, ottawa. Ewes that come to the lambing in a nutritionally depleted con- dition have difficulty in feeding their lambs. This shortage of cniik and the weakened condition of the ewes materially increases the rate of mortality both in Ianibs and ewes. In experiments conduct- ed at the Central Experrlrrlelital Farm it was found that where a non-legume roughage, timothy, was the sole feed that pregnant elves received. about oneflhird of 'Il0 lambs did not survive. whcicas when alfalfa hay was fed the death rate wns reduced to seven per cent and the lambs from the latter ewes made much better gains. If tiles-o is not sufficient high quality hay set aside for the Sheep then the poorer portion should be fed during the early part. of the winter and the better grade left until this time of the year.

CHARLOTTETOWN - Navvsv Dy burying the eagle-emblem. the Roman standard bearer con- trived thet the enemy, though n0 might be victorious, was yet un- able to show the most honoralme trophy of his victory. Varus, how- ever ln A. D. 9. had the disgrace of seeing his legions cut to piezes and their "eagles" captured by t.ie Germans under Arminlus (or I-Icr- mann). No disaster ever more keenly vv unded the haughty spirit of Rome. The tradition goes, a- mongst the hardy peoples of the north, that Anninius captured two eagles and gave the black (or bronze) one to the Germans, and the white or silver eagle to their Samiatiui allies. That is Willy (says the legend) the black eagle figures 1n the German imperial arms. and the white eagle in those of unhap- py Poland. The tradition is with- out foundation. The German Em- perors for s. long time had but the single eagle but this was i!‘ remembrance of the Roman Cae- sars. The Emperor Sigismund. la the fifteenth century, adopted the double-headed eagle as the her- a1d's emblem of his Empire, but in this he was not original, since Otho IV had used it on his im perial seal as a symbol of his pos- session of Rome and Constantin- ople, together known as the Greek Empire. The Russians, as their power in creased. looked on this blazon WILfi envy, and Czar Ivan III. when he married the daughter of Michael Paieologus, Emperor of the Bast. considered he was entitled to a “double-eagle" too.

ENQUIRY ABOUT MUSKET A letter has rEached me (via The Guardian) enquiring if I can give any information concerning a musket now in possession of the correspondent. The musket is 60 inches long, is stanvped “Inndon" and is engraved with the figures of two birds. I IJTI sorry that I cannot glvu this reader any dirm help as to the history of this musket, yet I can point out the one place where its origin and perhaps sorrie of its history may be known. That is the British Museum, Cromwed Road. LOndOll, S. W. 7, England. The Director may have s collec- tion of ancient fire-arms and will certainly know experts who can give history and dates for them. In writing to the Museum t‘. would llelp to give (1) the inside diameter of barrel. (2) Has it a catch for mounting s bayonet‘: (3) Has it sights? (4) What kind of lock or hammer has It? Th: lllarks and length of the gull should be given, and drawings of the lock etc. would be useful. Walnut wood was quite common- ly used for gunstocks, and still is. when it can be had. (Some years before World War II, it was dis- covered that the Germans ha: been buying lip black walnut tree:- in Canada and transporting the wood to Germany.) I shall be glad. to hear what the authorities at the Museum have to say about this gull. THE PLANET VENUS The planet Venus has of late been s conspicuous object in the western sky. On Feb. 13th. I saw the planet was in conjunction with the Moon, not perched on a. point of tiic crescent as it appeared oi". Julie 1, 1946, but with the M0011 a considerable distance below it. Venus will not attain its greatest hrilliallcy till ,M:iy 18th, when in the queer tabulation of the as- tronomers, its magnitude is "min- us.42." Venus must have been recogniz- ed from the earliest time as dis- tinct from the ordinary stars by its brightness, which won it the title of "Lucifer" —the Light bearer. Some believe that Venus is the "Mazzarotll" referred to ‘u the book of Job. The planet is visible both as a lliorning and an evening star, and the early Greek astronomers who did not know this, called it “Pliospliorus" iviieli a iliornillg star, and “Hes- perus" when it appeared in the evening. Pythagoras of Samoa (540-510 B. C.) is believed to hav“ For information we Invite A. PIDKARD been the first. to identify the two stars as one and the same, Venus is an "interior planet", which is to say that its patii round the sun lies inside that of the earth. Thus it does not take so long to make the circuit: rough 1y, 225 days to the Earth's 36.5.‘ As far as size is concerned, Venus is the Earth's “twln" having a mean diameter of 7,580 miles a- gainst the Earth's 7,918. What the planet's surface is like, is not known; for its dflZZllllg- brightness makes it very difficult to detect any markings. It is sup- posed that Venus is surrounded by a exceedingly dense cloud-laden atmosphere which reflects about 70 per cent of the sun's rays thaa fall on it. Astronomers tell us that this planet (as well as the planet Mercury) exhibits “phsser like those of the Moon. It is in- teresting to note that Copernicus. when he propounded his theory that the planets revolved round the Bun (instead of round the Earth), foresaw the existence of such phases. To those who treat- ed his prophecy with ridicule, he said: "God will cause instruments to be invented to improve the sight alld then you will see them," meaning the phases. In the year 1611 Galileo invented the teles- cope, and turning 1t upon Venus, found the old prophecy fulfilled. "Venus defeats out attempts w PAGE THIRTEEN CATERPILLAR fl"- v. s. sen. on.
