Vn _ THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, MAKUH 6, 1929 NEW JERSEY HENS LAY EGGNOGS . AFTER VISIT TO PILE OF RYE MASH New York, March 8---The New York World printed the following let- ter from C. Sweency of Westwood, N.1.: "I run a poultry ranch in this neck of the woods. About a month ago, while foraging in the woods the chickens lit upon a pile of rye mash. They ate frecly of the mash and it was all they could do to navigate home that evening. "But, strange to relate, ¢gg pro duction creased most wonderfully as a result of the mash diet, | "And I am happy also to say that sales have picked up even beyond pro- duction, My customers soon found that when they bought eggs from nie they were getting eggnogs at egy prices. Now I can't supply the de- mand. The customers sit around hap- | pily like old times, smoking and tell- {ing stories and ordering up 'two shells more as of yore' or 'another round of shells, here. "I had a friendly visit from a pro- hibition agent the other day. He lap- ped up ninc shells and ' staggerca away." U. OF T. RESEARCH WORK IS GLASSED MOST EXCELLENT Many Valuable Discoveries Made in Laboratories of Toronto Institution Toronto, Ont, March 8.--~As many #s 315 research problems under in- vestigation at the University of Tor- onto provided a great deal of work fast year, the majority of the eases ing a bearing, more or less direct, the industrial life of the country. + fields which still continue to he xplored include mining, agriculture, 'estry, fishing, cnginecring, biol- gy and many other A professor in the department of f stry has studied the discases of ¥ ping from the standpoint of its utilization for railway tics, the con- trol of disease in the forest, and the age at which timber can be harvest- ed with the maximum yield, He has ¢ifected a saving' of an immense amount of material, formerly consid- ercd- not usable, and his work was of great value to the railways, He then studied defective pulpwoods, especialy spruce and pine. Fifty per cent of these, formerly left unhar- vested, can now be used as a result of his researches. The same professor went after a blight of young conifers, particularly spruce, This blight was noticed es- pecially in the snow-laden areas of Quebec and Ontario and millions of trees were lost in the nurserics. He was able to find a means of controll- ing this blight so that where his me- thod. of control is adopted the dis- ease makes no headway and will probably be wiped out. His discov- eries also include a means of pre- venting ratlway ties from rotting, Another professor devised a treat- ment to prevent logs from sinking in the rivers and lakes when being floated down in the spring. Graduate students under the diree- tion of a professor have devised a scheme for catching the sulphur dios cide as it comes up smelters' smoke- stacks, concentrating it and then re- turning it to sulphur, So far the pro- | cess has been carried out only in the laboratory. In one of the laboratories of the faculty of applied science it has been found that natural gas, millions of cubic feet of which go off into the air in Alberta while gasoline is being brought to the surface from the oil wells, can be chlorinated, changed into liquid and in this form shipped to centres where it can be used. The great discovery in 1922 by Professors Banting and Best of in- sulin for the treatment of diabetes has involved the solving of many problems in the Connaught Jabora- tories, where it is manufactured for public use. During the years since the discovery was made, important rescarch 'has been conducted result- ing in improved methods of produc- tion and making possible substantial reductions in the price of insulin, Rescarch studies in the Connaught Laboratories also include the devel- opment of means for the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of certain communicable discases which are of great importance in Canada. Exten- sive studies have been made of dip- theria toxoid for the protection of persons against diptheria and pre- paration of this material in the la- boratorics has been sufficient to pro- tect more than 500,000 persons throughout Canada. THIRD HIGHWAY TO HAMILTON FOUND GREAT NECESSITY Hamilton, Mar 8.--Traffic be- tween Hamilton, Toronto and in- termediate points has already de- veloped to the point where officials realize that attention must be giv- en to the construction of a third connecting artery, Hon. Geo. 8S. Henry announced this week at the annual meeting of the Hamilton Auto Club, Hon. Mr. Henry also told of plans for the opening of a road from the lake shore highway to the Dundas street route 'at Freeman, and trucks will be able to use this link to transfer off the old road to the Dundas street highway. .The purpose of the new unit is to elim- inate the climb at Clappison's cut which drivers object to and often find difficult to negotiate, HOW T0 BE HAPPY THOUGH WEALTHY Many Types of Benefaction Which Bring Pleasure to Giver What is the psychology of the man who has made a pot of moncy, Your plutoerat must get tired of the | reflection that he has done it all himself, especially since he knows | that he hasn't. It must be rather dull to lrave the pot to relatives-- since they will probably be well pro- vided for themselves. A multi-millionaire of New York who has spent most of his years importing and selling cocoanuts | wants advice as to the most inter- esting way of spending his fortune. He began life with eighteen cents in his pocket and was buffetiea about a good deal by hard mast rs and has not forgotten, Recently he established a Foundation of $2,- 500,000 to help poor boys, and now he wants to do some more in that way. but doesn't know how. Well, a rich lady in Cincinnati is building a garden city, where work- ing people can acquire comfortable homes in pleasant environment on easy terms; where an experiment in the better and more orderly and beautiful building of a town may be tried out; and she does not ex- pect to lose any cash on the job.

ANCIENT MAMMAL, PREHISTORIC MAN, GRAPPLED TO DEATH Pretoria, South Africa, March 8-- Fossil bones indicating the early existence of a powerful type of large- sized man closely related to the negroid race in Transvaal have been found in the Springbok flats in the northern part of the State, Although it has not yet been ascertained to which group of primitive man the re- mains belong they are said to be of the heavy Cromagnon type and may be more primitive. The bones were found with the re- mains of an extinct gigantic buffalo and the broken condition of the skull and other bones suggest that the hunter and the hunted died to- gether, The lower jaw is powerful but small chinned, The teeth are similar to those of the Rhodesian man, HOGG OLYTLE, Ltd.

The performance was kept secret and no women was allowed to at- tend. The men in their broad- brimmed hats, long silk gowns, silk trousers and long beards seemed to | have stepped out of a long-forgotten past, The guests seemed a bit uncom- fortable at first but they gradually warmed up as familiar scenes were thrown on the screen and before the end of the picture they were regis- tering their emotions in song and vigorous applause. They warned characters who appeared in danger, reproved those who appcared im- moral and applauded the virtuous. When the figure of their beloved saint, Mendel, appeared they burst into an old Chassidic song and con- tinued singing till the end. Many of the spectators took the performance for reality and showed signs of flight in some of the critical stages especi- ally when a fight with Cossacks was portrayed.

E. Ward, Rector of St, Stephen's Church, in an ad- dr.ss before the Ministerial Assoc- {ation of the United Church of Can- cal proposition the idea of a na- tional Church. Rev, Dr, James Endicott, former Moderator of the United Church General Coun:il, assured the Angli- can protagonist of such a church that the United Church would be heart and soul in any effort along this line and would never be con- tent until there was a union which embraced the Church of England, Need of a National Church to combat prescnt day materialism was put forward by Mr. Ward, who dealt with the difficulties from the Anglican standpoint, which would have to be met, Union, he said, was hopeless if it involvcd any denial of the characteristic tenets of the An- glo-Catholic party. Further the church in Canada would not wish to separate itself from the great inter- national fellowship. He did, however, see a very hope- ful field, for discussion with re- gard to jurisdiction and orders, ana expressed his belief that the duties of Bishop might quite possibly be amalgamated with those of Presby- tery, so that the two systems might be reconciled, Marr'age Dowry till In Custom Despite Communism Moscow, Russia, March 8---Old marriage customs die hard in Russia despite the loosening of the marriage bond and the introduction of com- munism under the Soviet regime, Young working girls and their famil- ies struggle hard to prepare a dow- ry for marriage and in some cases the girls deny themselves necessities of life in order to get together a trousseau and some house-keeping equipment.

Unique Institution Exists In Sweden Stockholm, Sweden, March 8, -- A unique state institution, organ- ized to preserve and to further the study of the waning treasures of folklore, dialects and placenames of Sweden, will be created by the Gov- ernment with the' asesnt of the Riksdag, The annual cost of this institution will amount to 342,000 kronor, but considering that the Swedish States has previously grant ed various sums for this purpose, the net increase does not amount to more than 31,000 kronor. The or- ganization will be divided into the thrce departments of folklore, of dialects and of place-names with eminent experts as directors. The salaried directors, with the title of professors, will be four and their assistant directors 3.
