Antiseptic Weed Cutes Ringworm Lowly Plant May Bring $38 a Ton -- Discovered As Successful Remedy •' For Skin Ailments. Dr. J. B. Burt, chairman of the Nebraska Nebraska University Pharmacy Department, Department, announced last week the discovery discovery of a new antiseptic derived from a. weed so lowly that Western Nebraska farmers do not deign to name It, The new drug is chlormercuri car- vacrol, which Dr. Burt «aid gives great promise as a possible treatment for such skin diseases a athlete's foot, ringworm, psoriasis and impetigo. Preliminary tests in the University student health clinic, in the University University of Wisconsin student health clinic clinic and by Lincoln doctors indicate the compound is a successful remedy for these skin ailments, Us discoverer said. Unpalatable to Livestock He explained the antiseptic is made from the inintlike weed, mpnarda pectinati, which grows profusely in Western Nebraska. Farmers there have no special name for it, except mint, Dr. Burt said, but consider it a pest because its pungent flavor is unpalatable unpalatable to livestock. He estimated the weed would be worth $38,80 a ton at the market price for carvacrol if the new antiseptic becomes becomes an accepted remedy. A ton of the weed yields five pounds of oil, from which 3.88 pounds of carvacrol may he extracted. Carvacrol, the pharmacist explained, Is the liquid isomer of thymol, familiar as an ingredient of mouth washes, toothpastes, powders and gargles. Its use as a germicide is comparatively recent. Island In Sky Is Not Isolated' Explorer Believes "Lost World" . ' Search' Undertaken a Few Centuries Too Soon The expedition of the American Museum, of Natural History to explore explore Shiva Temple, near the north rim of the Grand Canyon, may have been undertaken a few centuries too early, according to a report submitted submitted by Dr. Harold E. Anthony, leader leader of the party, to F. Trubee Davison, Davison, president of the museum. Examination Examination has determined, the report says, that the present-day mammals of Shiva are indistinguishable from those on the adjacent canyon rim- First Humans To Ascend Shiva Temple, formerly a promontory promontory projecting from the rim, was sliced away by erosion 20,000 or more years ago into an isolated plateau. Its steep walls suggested the possibility possibility that animal life might have survived under peculiar circumstances, circumstances, removed from the influences that affected the evolution of neighboring neighboring species, remotely resembling the * "lost world" of Sir Arthur Conan Conan Doyle's imagining. This prospect prospect was discussed for more than twenty years -- for, as far as was known, no human being had scaled the plateau before Dr. Anthony's expedition expedition made the attempt. The isolation of the temple proved proved less complete than had been anticipated. anticipated. The party remained on the plateau eleven days, and obtained more than seventy-five specimens of animal life. Traces of human visitors visitors also were found. Evolution May Yet Work "Perhaps as time goes on," said Dr. Anthony, "and erosion gnaws away the connecting ridge, the present present dwellers on Shiva, active as they are, will find it is not worth while to try to cross back and forth, and then evolution may begin to work on this relatively small population. In which event, our expedition will seem to have been some centuries too early, but: until some one went to the top and secured the mammals this could not be known."

Issue No. 52--'37 Leading Bankers Review Canada's Economie Outlook BANK OF MONTREAL ANNUAL MEETING Confidence Expressed in. Country's Capacity for Recovery An impressive record of strength and of expanding business in keeping keeping with the marked improvement Of trade and commerce throughout the Dominion during the past year was presented at the 120th annual meeting of the Bank .of Montreal recently held in Montreal. in viewing business conditions over the wide territory in which the bank operates, Sir Charles Gordon, the president, said that these had much improved and were a happy contrast with the conditions conditions of but two years ago. The one really serious handicap was in those portions of the Prairie Provinces Provinces where drought caused total or partial loss of the crop. Canada, he said, had been demonstrating demonstrating in the past year a remarkable remarkable resiliency in productive enterprise. As instances of this, he referred to the immense growth of gold production and of the output of industrial metals remarking that with the exception of iron, Canada was now the world's largest exporter exporter of base metals. Canada's Manufactures Worth Three Billions He further pointed out that whereas Canada was until quite recently regarded as a country devoted devoted almost entirely to agriculture, agriculture, today agriculture provides 35% of the exports and other, forms of industry the balance. Canada now employs 600,000 people in 30,- 000 workshops, mills and factories, and the annual value of its manufactured manufactured products amounts to more than $3,000,000,000. In concluding his remarks, -.Sir Charles, while not attempting a forecast on the Canadian business outlook, expressed bis confidence Wolf Breaks Fang On Rifle Barrel Tooth Slash Quarter-Inch -Deep Left by Animal Members of the Algoma Wolf Club studied tile barrel of Bill Bradshaw's rifle when he came back to Sault Ste. Marie and-decided it. yvas lucky. for Bradshaw the wolf he dragged 300 yards by a dog chain last week didn't connect when he tried to savage savage him. As Bradshaw jerked the wolf along the animal seized the barrel of Bradshaw's Bradshaw's rifle and examination showed an indentation almost a quarter of an inch deep. Marks In The Steel One of the wolf's fangs was apparently apparently broken by the bite for Gilbert Murray, with Bradshaw at the time, said he was struck on the cheek by an object he later found was one of the wolf's fangs. Bradshaw and Jack McDonald caught the wolf by holding holding it to the ground with a forked stick. From Mount Zion, 30 miles east of here, came word the district farmers didn't need help from the club in handling wolves. Freeman Burdand The Boy Scout Santa Claus of the Toy Repair Shop at Calgary, had a real surprise when he received a letter letter from a group of children at Airways, Airways, a rural district 175 miles northeast of Calgary. The request was, not for toys, dolls or story books, but for school books. Ran the letter: "We have had poor crops for six years around Airways and Hughen- den. There are children here who want to study, but they have no school books and no money to get them." Mention of the appeal in the Calgary Calgary Herald : brought prompt response, response, and it is certain that these stout-hearted children of the prairies will receive not only the desired school books but toys and other gifts as well. Approval, of the Boy Scout Movement Movement in Greece, and assurance that he wilt do all in his power to further its success, was expressed by Prime Minister Metaxas, following a parade of Scouts at Patras. Alfred C. Bossom, a British M.P., in Canada's "remarkable capacity for recovery," which, if not unduly affected by international disturbances, disturbances, would, he felt, mean a continuance continuance of the better times which Canadians had experienced during the past year. Commercial Loans Show Increase One of the most important features features of the financial statement presented by Jackson Dodds, on behalf behalf of himself and Ms fellow general general manager, G. W. Spinney, was the increase shown in current loans in Canada of more than $23,000,- 000 to $182,500,000. For the year ended September 30th, the current loan of all the banks had increased by $75,500,000. While the increase was welcome, he said it was not commensurâtë with the growth in the volume of business and the improvement improvement in commodity prices. . Bank's Assets 79.58% Liquid The assets of the bank, standing at $820,600,000 were the highest since 1929. Of this amount $599,- 000,000 represented quickly . available available resources, equal to 79.58% of liabilities, to the public", amounting to $752,736,000. Among other highlights, the statement presented by the general managers showed 'that deposits by the public had increased by $28,000,000 to $631,000,000. Commenting Commenting on this item, Mr, Dodds said: "Despite ail that is written, and said nowadays on the subject of 'loans creating deposits,' 'fountain 'fountain pen money' and 'monetizing' assets, including what is described as 'our cultural heritage,' it is safe to say that not one of our customers, customers, whose balances make up out total of deposits by the public, has any -doubt whatsoever as to how his or her deposit canie into being." said ho saw a wolf near his farm home when he got up the other day, Without bothering to put on his shoes Burdand ran outside, grabbed a-stick and chased the wolf from the yard. But they don't just chase wolves as Walfosi! 71 Duffy 16, reported he killed one'with " - d'-ri rifle and James Thom, Sr,, killed .mother with a trap.

The shield was accepted on behalf of the Gambian Scouts by Mr. O nry- by Gore, Secretary of State for the Colonies. From time to time letters from tourists, especially women travelers, travelers, have told of the services rendered rendered by the African Scouts at Bathurst Bathurst and Freetown, and the fact that like Scouts elsewhere the boys refused to accept any reward.
