' The third preliminary estimate by l, Department of Agriculture for wheath production in South Africa m, mo 1030-31 season is 3,082,000 h3g5, which estimate represents an mcreflge n: 45 per cent over the aver- age production for 1910 to 1915, writes J. L. Mutter, Assistant Canad- m; Trade Commissioner in Cape Town, in the forthcoming issue of the commercial Intelligence Journal. At one time it seemed likely that pro- duction would reach an even greater figure, as the area. under wheat this 5955011 is considerably greater than m the previous one, but damage by rust and the lack of spring runs up- wpntry, have had a detrimental ef- legi, upon yields. Ii, lS Esbllllilwd, however, that this season's produc- tlon will supply about '70 per cent of the country's rcquiremclits, and in view of the restrictions imposed on the importation of wheat, and to be imposed on the importation of flour during the coming session of Par- liament, it appears probable that the present ncrrrige under wheat will be malntainczi, if not increased, in the future.

SANDERSON-DOCKENDORFD

The parlor of the Baptist Manse of North River was again "a thing of beauty" on the evening of lbb- ruary 11th., decorated on this occas- ion for the marriage ceremony ‘of

Docken- and Mrs. Wilbert Dockenclorff of North River and Hammond Ellsworth Sanderson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Frpnk Sander- son of the same place. The room in which the ceremony was performed was lighted by candles the soft light lending an atmosphere of quiet to the scene. At seven o'clock the bride and the bridegroom took their places under o, pretty arch made of native spruce and pine and intetwined with flowers-roses, lilies and camationa.

Between the years 1854-8 the Brit- ish Association published a catalogue cf e-fihquakes, which took in the period betw .1 B.‘ C. 1806 to A- D. 1850. The records, ancient and mod- cm, of all nations were ransacked to make this list which comprised be- tween 0,000 and 7,000 earthquakes on land and at sea, in every part of the world. We now know that this list is very inadequate, for shocks are much more f uent than is suspected: for instance the beismologicai Station at Washington, D. 0., recorded 98 earth- quakes in 1918 alone, and ascertained the location of 87 of them. The "quakes" of the catalogue were those only which had earned a place in his- tory by their intensity and destruct- ivencu.

In some casq the record professed to give ‘the cause of the earthquake, and various theories were advanced. Om of the most popular insisted that water, percolating down to highly l-ieated rock, generated steam, and produced an explosion with disastrous effect. Anothei- writer believed that

Mallett, who in the main prepared the catalogue of the British Association, confirmed Penny's view as far asthe winter solstice was con- cerned, but found that the other per- iods were less marked than Perrey supposed. From a study of the B. A. catalogue, Mallet was Jed to detect (as he believed) a. maximum period of energy about the middle of each century, with a second and less pow- erful epoch towards its close: he leaves us no speculation ls to their cause.

Science has still much to learn about; the cause of earthquakesybut in other directions our knowledge has been greatly increased within the last century. It is possible now, by special apparatus, to calculate their distance from the observer, their centre, and the general direction of their "path." The writer's belief -and'it is as much entitled to consideration as some of those above-mentioned-is that the earthquake is a. manifesta- tion of the law of gravitation. When

Let us venture into the domain of music for an explanation. notes (and unmusicdl ones too for that matter) are produced by vibra- tions. The vécal chords of man or ani- mal, a tense cord or wire, a reed, or some vessel (like a. bell) vibrating at a certain rate will give a certain note- n... note will have three qualities. 1n- tensity, pitch, and timbre. Its inten- sity depends on the amplitude of the vibration. When, for example, a bell is first struck, the intensity (or loudness of the sound) ls greater because the vibration is at its maximum "swine": as the vibrations get weaker (but not less frequent) the sound dies away, though the pitch remains absolutely the same throughout. The Pitch 01 "16 note is determined by the number of vibrations in a given time. lfxa tense cord or wire is plucked at the centre, and subsequently vibrams ‘at the rate of 256‘ times a second, its pitch is "middle C." If the vibrations are in- creased to 28B in the second it will sound D, and so on. The sound s0

called the fundamental note.

But if the cord is vibrated as 8t first, and then bowed or r‘ ‘ ' at B- point intermediate between the centre and the end. it will vibrate in two equal sections. the lower c! which
