Dutrauiag Experience W& PHckly Pear End* Man often gets his knuckles rapped when he monkeys with the balance of nature. Starlings were introduced into the U. S. to crowd out English sparrows. Now the Starlings are a great nuisance in some eastern cities, while the replacement of horses by automobiles hit the sparrows harder than the starlings did. When rabbits were taken into Australia they proliferated enormously for lack of natural enemies. Wholesale slaughter has not suppressed them. Australia also had a distressing experience with the prickly pear--but in this case there was a happy ending. North and South American prickly pears, members of the cactus family, were taken to Australia in the Nineteenth century, planted for hedges and as a source of fodder. By 1925 they threatened to crowd out native vegetation on 30,000,000 acres of land, and on 30,000,000 more acres the pears had completely won, standing in a dense, solid growth two to five feet thick. The cost of fighting them with chemicals, by digging or plowing, stack ing and burning, would have been more than the land was worth. Sc, year after year, more land was abandoned, more homesteads deserted. Meanwhile the Australian government sent agents to the Americas to see what the prickly pear's natural enemies were. The agents investigated about 150 insects that feed on cactus and nothing else, set a few of the most promising to work in Australia. By far the most potent destroyer proved to be a little moth borer, Cactoblastis cactorum. The larvae of this insect eat the inside of the pear plant, even the roots, and their depredations promote rotting due to bacteria and fungi. Armed with strings of moth borer eggs glued to strips of paper, fieldworkers swarmed through prickly pear land, pinned their deadly eggs on the plants. Largest Sharks Harmless • If Wine-Hucd in Color Among the many strange creatures that inhabit the depths of the sea there is a curious wine-colored shark, according to a recent publication of the Smithsonian institution, written by 'Dr. Henry W. Fowler, of the Philadelphia Academy of Sciences. This curious denizen of the deep has 20 rows of teeth in its huge mouth, and its whole underside shines with a ghostly light at night. It is foynd in tropical waters the world around, and its shining, asTin the ca&e of other marine animals, worms, and insects such as fireflies, is produced by phosphorus. The luminous parts of this weird shark will continue to shine for several hours after death. The biggest sharks, Dr. Fowler writes, are the moat harmless of all. They are known as basking sharks. They attain lengths of from 30 to 36 feet and are the largest of all sharks. They are found occasionally around American shores, but chiefly inhabit Arctic waters. The basking shark gets its name fmn its habit el lying motionless on the surface cf the water in the sun, often in schools. In spite of its huge size, it is quite harmless, being either so good-natured or so stupid, that it never molests anyone and i£ attacked will try to get away, swimming vary siowlgr. It feeds on Irit. Sleep Standing Up Penguins can sleep standing up. They use their short tail as a support and their feet act as the two other points of the "tripod'." But that isn't their only method of enjoying the comforts of slumber They can also sleep flat on their xhests or while floating in water.

C.--The American inch has remained stable, within the limits of measurement, for half a century, Dr. Lyman J. Briggs, director of the United States bureau of standards, revealed in a paper published by the Smithsonian Institution. The national primary standard of length, Dr. Briggs says, is a meter bp.r made of an alloy of the relatively rare metals, platinum and iridium, which is kept at the bureau. Actual checks, however, are made with another bar which, iw spite of its hard usage, has increased in length only about .000"? of an inch, or less than two microns, in half a century. The platinum and iridium alloy was selected because of its extreme stability. The bar in actual use is checked1 frequently with its prototype jrndv up to the time of the war, with the world standard meter bar which w kept at the International Bureau of Weights and Measure^, at Paris. There might still be " the possibility, Dr. Briggs points otlt, that both the American bars are "drifting"' and that even the international bar might be changing in length. Fortunately, he says, there is a way of checking this with a standard which is unchangeable. ' Every element, when made luminous, gives out light of specific wave* lengths. There has been selected a single wave length--a red light line given out by the element cadmium and which, it has been ascertained, has a length of precisely 6438.4696 Angstrom units. An Angstrom unit is a ten-millionth of a millimeter. When the meter bars are measured with these light waves, there is no evidence of a systematic drift a few who left McHenry last week to enlist in the nary.
