Brunswick during 1933, compared with the preceding year, are revealed in figures' reaching Hon. Lewis Smith, Provincial Minister of Agriculture, from the Dominion Bu- reau of Statistics, O'tawa. Cattle num- bered 15,600 head higher last year The 1933 yield of 269,000 bushels of wheat Feprese nts a 69,000 'bushel gain over the yield of 1932, while the 1933 potato crop of 5,394,000 cwt. is up 1,638,000 cwt, over the 1832 crop, an increase of almost 40 per cent. Montreal, Quebec.--~The fur auction concluded last month in Montreal by the Canadian Fur Auction Sales, Ltd., were among the best ever held, accord. ing to official opinion, The three days' proceeds showed a total of $392,000 for Canadian fox pelts, prices being from 25 per cent. to 30 per cent, higher than at the same time last year. Buy- ers included representatives of firms in the United States and Europe.

Cattle re- ceipts, with the 1932 figures in brack- ets, numbered 769,723 (673,288); calves, 290,630 (278,804); hogs, 1,680, 436 (1,762,225); sheep, 643,610 (682, . 880); horses, 36, 632 (34,947).

Measuring light is not especially new. It is usually done by a phote- meter, which even in its portable form, is more of a laboratory than a workaday instrument. Now there is available a light measurer which any one can use and which can be read as easily as a clock or thermometer. "Hall Stairs," "Very Coarse Work," "Average Work and Reading," "Fine Work, Print and Sewing," "Fine Vis- ual Work over Long Periods" are the legends above a scale over which a finger plays. Beneath the scale are figures--foot candles. A glance at the dial and it is easy to see that for "Very Coarse Work" only ten candles to the square foot are necessary, but that "Sewing" demands between 20 and 80, We Lave here the outcome of -a dis- covery which' was simultaneously made in Germany by Dr. Lange and in this country by- the Westinghouse research engineers, The sensitive core of the instrument is merely a copper disk which has been coated with copper oxide.

The sun, bright lamps, coal fires and gas flames are "nose openers," while all dark sources of heat are 'nose shut- ters. Hill even found a nose-closing effect at a distance of forty feet in a 800-watt gas-filled incandescent lamp with a screen of cellophane interposed. He covered a hole in a piece of card- board with tw) square inches of the horny layer of the skin and found that it shut the side of the nose to which it was exposed even when held in front of the face at a distance of twenty-seven feet from this particular lamp. These conclusions were 80 startling that the Department. of Scientific and Industrial Research and the Medical Research Council of England decided to repeat Hill's experiments. Hill proved to be 'vrong. "Nature has fortunately. pea us with two nostrils," says the author of the slightly scornful report, "and it is possible to breathe through the one and atthe same time to utilize the other for measuring inspiratory and expiratory pressures.' So the somewhat . skeptical = experimenters connected the second nostril by a rub- ber tubo with a sensitive pressure- measuring instrument which made a record on a moving chart, In a dark room blindfolded subjects sat ¢lose to a dull electric fire or an electrically heated panel that did not glow at all, - They closed one nostril with the connection leading to the in- strument and breathed through the other. In another robm records were taken without their knowledge. Now and then an electric lamp, screened by glass, was s ¥itched on and off from outside the room to illuminate faces. No evidence was found that the lamp acted as a "nose opener." This was true even when some subjects were tested who had difficulty in breathing because of abnormal air passages, Professor Hill objected, Blindfold- ing was wrong, he argued, It might have inhibited the subjects. The testing committee started a new series of experiments, Blind persons were now selected, because they were obviously uninhibited by light. More- over, they were tested in an air-con- ditioned room so that the temperature and humidity - could be controlled. Seated in a comfortable armchair and screened from-drafts and most of the room's light, eacli blind subject faced one of a pair of electric fires at a dis- tance of 6 feet 3 inches. The testers were diabolical enough to run the fires silently on a trolley behind screens of tin and wood contrived so that the subject could be irradiated by each fire in staxn.- Ona fire was very bright and the other very dull.

Cornish of .the In- stitute. of Expermental Bology of the Univ sity of California, finds no dif- ficulty in reading newsprint under vater, thanks to glasses of his own aesign. Goggles for divers are no- thing new; their glasses are simply small window panes without any re- fracting properties, Cornish's, on the other hand, are true lenses that bend the light rays just as he wants them to bend to improve seeing. In The Journal of Scientific Insta is ments Dr, Cornish tells how he came to resort to lenses. Most of our focus- ing for good seeing is done with the cornea, or outer transparent coating, of the eyeball and very little with the so-called "crystalline lens." Light usually passes through air. When it strikes the watery liquid 'with which the eye is filled it is bent or focused. But in water there is no proper bending or focusing. Water without, water "within, is the reason. There must be a difference between the two bending. or refracting media, This explains why to swimmers who keep their eyes. open under water every- thing is a blur. It also explains why ordinary goggles or window glass im- prove vision, Between the glass and the cornea is ai, So long us we have air and water, seeing is fairly good. But, reason;d Dr. Cornish, why not treat the eye under water as if "is vision were defective and prescribe lenses for it just as an oculist would? He did so with the result noted, "Sach lenses should have value in saving life where it is necessary to dive for a victim of drowning," says he, "Life- guards now have largely to grope for the victim," : --i en Test of Age Sir John MacFaurland, Chancellor of the Melbourne University, suggests as a test of old age the ability or in- ability of a man to put on his trousers without. sitting down.

Dr. Saunders died in 1914. At that time only a few of the "second cross" trees--grand-children of the Siberians, were old enough to bear fruit, His work was carried forward by Dr. W. T. Macoun, who had been associated with him since 1898, and who died in 1933. Some of the "third cross" trees of these experimental strains have now come to the frult-bearing stage. There is a big contrast between the rosy, juley apples, over three inches in dia- meter and 'their tiny, bitter and sour great-grandmothrs, Hardness, as Is the case with many characters developed through millions of years in nature's grim laboratory, is a "dominant" characteristic. It per- sists with remarkable tenacity down the line of crosses. [Fortunately cer- tain of the chardcters which give qual- ity are also dominant." When these characters are jumbled by cross-breed- ing some of the crosses show both hardiness and quality, in a genetiently stable combination, Some of the second-class apples-- namely Rosilda, Trail, Printosh and Plotosh, are fully hardy and are bear- ing fruit as far north as Prince Albert, The third crosses have yet to be tested for hardiness, but there is good ground for the assurdnce that within the next ten years it will be possible to-grow apples wherever wheat can be grown, This is amatter of tremendous im- portance for Western Canada, 'The time is not far distant when every farm in Western Canada can have-its old apple tree, just as many already have their plums, berries and other small fruits, George F.
