Corthell showed a map of the large island just a little north of the Argentine city of Rosario in the Parana river. The island has. for years been moving down the stream, narrowing the passage between it and the city, says the New York Sun.

The fact that the island has moved from it3 old position will not apear so strange when the phenomenon is explained. It seems, after all, to be a simple matter. The vast volume of water coming down the Parana impinges upon the wide northern front of the island and tears away great masses of earth from the banks, carrying the sand and other detritus- away from the northern shore. The island so obstructs, the current that an eddy is formed on the south side of the land mass, and into this eddy most of the earth that is torn away from the northern bank is carried and deposited against the south shore in this quiet part of the waters; so that while the north side of island is constantly wearing away, the eouthern shore is being built up and expended, and thus the island is gradually traveling down the stream.

He was greatly beloved and honored In Grand Army circles and llosario is the largest exporter of the millions of bushels of wheat which Argentina now sends to Europe. Mr. Corthell showed an interesting view of a small mountain of sacks filled with wheat that had. been piled up for carriage to Rosario.

We send our wheat to Europe from Atlantic ports in bulk. But Argentina, like our Pacific states, exports its grain in sacks. Another picture showed the process of loading these sacks on the steamers. The sacks are hauled up to a considerable height above the vessel, from which an inclined plane extends to the deck of the ship; down ibis smooth plane the sacks slide into the hold, in which they are stored. This is, of course, a very slow and inconvenient method of handling the received many recognitions from the It may be a little early, but when fine weather does come the crowd of buyers will come too.
