Ice Crossing of Baikal Reveals Crystal Lake Vastness
An Arctic traveler describes crossing eastern Siberia on Lake Baikal a mile deep with ice like polished crystal. He notes the vast area larger than Lake Erie, the winter highway for Russia and China, near silent expanse, and frail snow cover giving way to a flawless ice surface. The journey lasts four and a half hours for thirty miles with two brief stops, horses seeming fresh at the end.

The Sense of Smell and its Hidden Machinery

Curiosities About Insects from the St. Louis Republic
Entomologists estimate over 100000 named insect species with some arguing up to 150000. Beetles comprise about half of classified species, Lepidoptera around 15000, and similar counts for Hymenoptera Diptera and Hemiptera. Orthoptera are fewer, netted ringed forms under 2000. Insects thrive in tropics yet persist in far north, exemplified by Sir George Nares collecting numerous specimens from Grinnell Land and Iceland.
