What Science | * |s Doing * VENOM MAY BE CURE The poisonous venoms of bees, lizards, salamanders and the dead- ly rattlesnake and cobra were de- clared to offer new hope to suf- ferers from palsy, paralysis, spi- nal-cord injuries and other paln- ful nerve disturbances. The use of insect and reptile poisons to treat the pain which re- sults from cancer and other ma- lignant diseases is not new, Dr. M. B. Greene, of New York, de- clared in a report to the American Association for the Advancement of Science, but the method of us- ing them to "block off" individual nerves or sets of nerves is now being successfully applied for the first time on a large scale. HILLS OF OCEAN WATER Hills of water exist in the Paci- fic Ocean, according to Howard W. Blakeslee, the Associated Press science editor, quoting Dr. R. H, Fleming of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography of the Univer- sity of California. The greatest hill centres around thc Hawaiian Islands. The water there is a little more than 'three feet higher than at the Aleutian Islands, 2,000 miles south. NEW DISCOVERIES IN HEREDITY Dr. Leonard G. Rowntree, direc- tor of the Philadelphia Institute for Medical Research, investigat- ing the affects of the thymus gland, has found that the mother passes on to her child the factor that controls the rate of growth, and that the father's contribution is nil. Earlier experiments by Dr. Rowntree demonstrated that ef- fects of gland treatment can be passed on from one generation to the next. In these experiments he treated bath parents. Continuing the experiment with the same line of animals, he omitted the gland- ular treatments to the father and found that treatments given to the mother alone produce the same effects as were observed when both parents were treated. the study of heredity. It has been generally believed that all the physical characteristics possessed by an individual are the joint con- tribution of both parents and of their line of ancestors, and that these characteristics are carried in the chromosomes, tiny struc- tures in the nucleus of the germ cell.

It has even been found useful in terminating cer- tain cases of severe asthma, Canadian National Railways Revenues The gross revenues of the all-in- clusive Canadian National Rail- ways System for the week ending July 14, 1938, were ...... $3,188,221 as compared with ........ 3,770,754 for the corresponding period of 1937, a de- crease of $ 582,633 Soda may sweeten the stomach, but a man with a sour disposition must work on himself if he ever hopes for a cure.

No sooner has a plant developed than every effort must be made to maintain it at the peak for as long as the natural limita- tions of the species permit. At that time more than ever, skill, the practical application of knowing how, is the determining factor in success. Fortunately there are many lo- cations where the gorgeous flow- er-laden spikes will develop to perfection even with little care. The object then is to insure con- tinued success. This calls for close attention to the needs of the plants, since insect and plant dis- eases ever are lurking to destroy them. The food balance of the soil also is likely, to be disturbed. LJ] FEEDING IN SUMMER The feeding of garden plants during summer usually is referred to as top dressing because the plant food or fertilizer cannot be worked deeply into the soil now without causing considerable harm to many roots. Never apply any fertilizer or plant food while the soil is dry. Always give good watering and, after the surface moisture has drained away, apply the food or fertilizer to the soil Keep it away from all parts of the plants, including the base of the stem, since many kinds, par- ticularly the highly concentrated fertilizers, exert a caustic action on plant tissues. 'Hoe: the material lightly into the soil surface and give prolonged watering to dis- solve the food and carry it down to the roots. * LJ * READY FOR FLOWER SHOWS Now is the time to apply light feeding to plants of all kinds that are being grown for the fall flow- er shows. Regardless of the type of plant-food, it will be found a good practice to spread it over several feedings rather than one heavy application. Needless to say, the ideal time to feed any agrden is just before a rain, or, if artifi- cial irrigation is present, to water the food in immediately after ap- plying. If you must use elements high in nitrogen, go easy, for hot weather and nitrogen often will upet your best calculations. Well balanted foods are safer at this season and will return the great- est dividends. Only experienced "gardeners succeed in applying single elements to their plants and they often find the vagaries around the plants. of nature upsetting their plans.

Sulphur Enters Into the Mant - facture of an Amazing Var.- ety of Products, Including Rayon, Candy and New:- print. Millions of Pounds Imported Yearly from Texas; But Remarkable New Chlor- ine Process, Just Perfected, Means That Canada Will Have Profitable Sulphur In- dustry of Her Own. To the average person, the men- tlon of sulphur usually conjures up the memory of that particularly obnoxious tonic which, in youth, marked the advent of Spring. But, to the chemical engineer, sulphur represents one of the most useful and interesting raw materials offered to man by Mother Nature. In fact, it is practically impossible to look about city, town or village without seeing some useful commo- dity in the manufacture of which sulphur has played an important part. The textile processing industry, it is authoritatively estimated, used 22,400 tons of sulphur during 1937. And, it you're wearing rayon. you are wearing something that sulphur helped to make. Last year, (he rayon industry used 76,000 tons of sulphur in addition to many thous- and tons of carbon bisulphide and sulphur chloride. In Car Manufacture : Sulphur also contributes to your motoring comfort and safety. About 35 pounds of sulphur, in one form or another, are required in the manufacture of a car. The rubber in the tires usually is compounded with 29% by weight of sulphur. Hard rubber moulded products contain about 409 by weight of sulphur. New Sulphu: ~ For Canada Important Industry phurle acid are used in the manu- facture of chemical fertilizers. Last year, over 457,000,000 pounds of sulphur were imported from Tex- as, a very large percentage of which went to our own pulp and paper plants, because, next to pulp wood itself, sulphur is probably the most essential raw material used by this great industry. Those 457,000,000 pounds represent millions of dol- lars! Essential Raw Material What a market to have for our- selves! And we are going to have It inthe near future. Nature hasn't given us sulphur to be dug or fore- ed out by super heated water, as in Texas; but the ingenuity of our chemists has produced a new pro- cess for breaking pyrite into its two main constituents, sulphur and iron, quickly, easily and cheaply. This process Is considered by ex- perts to be the greatest metallurgi- cal achievement for Canada since Consolidated Smelters invented the new process for separating zine- silver-lead ores. On the face of thinzs, Canada seems certain of _her own sulphur industry in the near future, an in- dustry singularly favored in that it is assured of a 2i-hour-a-day de- mand for its product, before the first sulphur plant has ever been built. -- ° 7Scratching Even the most stubborn itching of inse i tete's foot, bives, scales, ibn kof mt, oi caused skin afllictions quickly yields to cooling rh {spic, liquid D.

Le Figaro, Rightist newspaper, said airplane production in Ger many had been stepped up to a war-time basis, while the Radical Socialist L'Oeuvre asserted import- ant new fortification lines were be- ing built in the Saar region, "Preparing Soma Surprise" "Information obtained Gg sa'd Le Figaro, "has arouscd t fear that the Reich {is preparing some surprise for this summer be- fore the Nuremberg Congress Sept. b. "We learn that fortification work on the Western front and covering troops along the Siegfried Line have been increased recently to the point that In the very near future they will form an impregnable bar- rier. 220,000 Men Working "New plans permitting doubling of aviation strength in less than six months instead of 10 have been put into effect and factories are already producing 400 planes a month. It is hoped that in three months that figure can be doubled. But the fig- ure of 400 is already a war-produc- tion figure." Reporting similar rumors, Gene- vieve Tabouis, commentator of -L'Oeuvre, said that-from-Spever to Trier the Oberstein Line has been reinforced by new fortifications. In the Saar region 220,000 men have been concentrated to intensify work along fortifications traversing the area from east to west passing by Homberg, Neunkirchen, Saarwell- ingen and Merzig, she declared.

Zile, acting project manager of the Soll Conservation Service at Burlington, Vt, to preserve wild life. "Birds have a definite economio value to the farmer. The farmer spends hundreds of dollars and many hours of labor in his cease- less battle against destructive weeds and insects. Without his faithful allics--the birds--he would have little hope of winning the fight even for one season. HIs bat- tle is easier In proportion to the number of birds living on his farm," Zile said. Many Nests Destroyed Hay mowing machines destroy many game bird nests and eggs, as well as fledglings and grown birds. Surveys of hay fields, where pheas- ants most often nest, indicate that more than one-fourth of the adult hens are killed by mowers each year, while from one-half to three- fourths of their nests are destroyed, according to Zile, "This serious loss largely can be avoided If the farmer will use a 'flushing-bar' on his mower," Zlle says. n ' » Light Bamboo Pots , X The flushing-bar warns the hen of SN the approaching mower, and when 3 a she flushes, the farmer stops the A mower,"locates the nest and leaves : a protecting island of uncut hay around it by raising the cutter bar, The flushing-bar is a light bams NS boo pole, 12 feet long, attached co ARAN horizontally at a right angle to the TR front of the tongue of the mower, with three or four short lengths of chain hung from the free end of the pole so as to drag through the hay ahead of the cutter-bar,
