Drouth conditions at the moment mo-ment are Intensely serious and It Is a question whether or not some producers pro-ducers wiU be able to pull through with sufficient foundation stock to take, advantage of the better price levels. However, on the Pacific Coast if weather conditions during the coming a:ason are favorable, it Beems very probable that this section sec-tion will enjoy a degree of prosper-Ity prosper-Ity All livestock supplies In 1935 will be greatly reduced from the numbers num-bers on hand during the past several sev-eral years. Already, the hog mar-v. mar-v. h reflected the greatly re duced number available and prices have made rapid advances to the best levels since 1931. While this r4r Bt.ructure may be subject to revision, there Is a general .minion in the trade that we will eee no great increase in market sup plies, as usually may toe expect m the fall, due to decreased farrowing last spring and shortage of feeds nd relatively high prices. The Federal government has purchased pur-chased more than three and a half million cattle in its drouth, relief program and apparently millions more will be purchased. In North Dakota, practically 50 per cent of all the cattle in the state have gone to Federal buyer There Is talk that the Government buying may eventually take ten million and possibly pos-sibly fourteen million cattle; this number running to a great extent to breeding stock. Heavy forced marketing of cattle la generally anticipated an-ticipated until January 1st, with estimates es-timates that the Government will buy a million or more a month for the balance of this year- This program pro-gram Is going to either force middle western feeders to pay higher prices or else greatly curtail their feeding operations. In either event, the only on-ly answer must be reduced supplies, not only in 1935, but for some years j to come. The lung time outlook certainly cer-tainly is for a higher price scale. Much the same situation exists on sheep and lambs. Government buying buy-ing that is now getting under way Is expected to call for approximately five million ewes, which certainly will cut down production in 1935. Government planning is to be anticipated an-ticipated and it la doubtful If the present administration will permit any great increase in production of foods, at ljart to a point considered beyond what consumers will and can take at fair prices- For thoM-who thoM-who ire in position to grasp advantage,; advan-tage,; the present situation seems to offer tin id?al time to become established estab-lished in the livestock business, whe ther for beef cattle, swine or lamb production. Cockatillo, Noisy Bird, Is Native of Australia The cockatillo, whimsically described de-scribed by one authority on cage birds as a small edition of the cockatoo, is a most distinguished appearing bird, says a writer In the Detroit News. Measuring between 10 and 11 inches in length this Immigrant from Australia is clothed almost entirely en-tirely in gray, having a pearly gray breast and dark gray back and wings. Yellow cheek patents, each with Its center of crimson, lend a touch of color to the cockatlllo's attire; at-tire; while Its dignity Is greatly heightened by a pearl gray crest, shading to yellow at the base. These are the colorings of the male, but the female Is practically the same in appearance, though the color touches are not so bright They are noisy. Their love-call has a bell-like and musical quality, but is uttered very often and sometimes some-times grows too piercing for the enjoyment en-joyment of the listener. Some of them learn to talk a little, though such cases are rare. Although the native home of the cockatillo is In Australia, most of those found in this country have been bred here, for there is in effect in Australia a law which forbids the export of native birds. However, How-ever, they are said to show a tendency ten-dency to breed oftener in captivity than In their native state. The American bred birds are hardier, In the opinion of many authorities, than Imported ones. Napoleon's Simplon Road Great Engineering Feat Napoleon Invaded Italy by crossing cross-ing over the St. Bernard mountains. moun-tains. When he had ended the campaign cam-paign by destroying the Italia army at the battle of Marengo and had returned to France, he deter mined to emphasize and render permanent per-manent his success by constructing a great military road Into Italy. The execution of the work was entrusted to M. Ceard, one of the foremost engineers of the day. It was begun on the Italian side in 1800 and on the Swiss side in 1801, and was finished In six years. The road was made over a shoulder shoul-der of the Simplon mountain, From Byrlog in Valals to Dorao d'Ossolo, In the north part of Piedmont, Italy. The summit of the mountain moun-tain over which it pasned was 0,502 feet above sea level. The road was from 25 to 30 feet broad and had nowhere throughout its ; extent a slope greater than one foot in thirteen. thir-teen. It was carried across 611 bridges, over numerous galleries cut out of the solid rock or built of masonry, and' through a number ef tunnels. The rood was one of the niasterpioces of the engineering of that day, and cost about $3,500,000, half of which was borne by France, and the remainder by Switzerland. Cleveland Plain Dealer. UJ.MA.

I've just beard it over the radio from Amory Waite. I'll tell you all about the details in the next story. You know, rubber turns brittle in extremely cold temperatures, loseB its elasticity and breaks. That's the main trouble that overtook our second sec-ond tractor expedition to get Ad miral Byrd out of his lonely hut 123 miles away, Dr. Poulter, Pete De-mas De-mas and Amory Waite were making splendid progress in the little French tractor 23 miles south of here, after they had dug one huge sledge load of food and supplies out of a 90-foot deep crevasse into which it had fallen, with Dermis' skill alone saving the tractor and its crew from a similar fate. Then the fan belt broke. And so did the new one they put In. And so did another.; an-other.; Then the clutch got out of kilter and the generator went wrong. So Dr. Poulter realized it was impossible to go on. They left there the two sledge loads of 300 gallons of gasoline, 20 gallons of oil, food and camping equipment for our third tractor to pick up on its Journey through the darkness, which was started on Friday.
