CAN PREDICT TOOTH DECAY Tooth decay is being diagnosed and even predicted as long as twelve months in advance for pa- tients never seen by the examin- er. Developed in experiments at Michigan School of Dentistry, the process relies on the important diagnostic relationship between the Lactobacilli and the presence of cavities in the teeth. An ac- curacy of more than 80 per cent, has already been achieved. MOONLIGHT, RADIO PRODUCED A new use for radio, to light the sky fifty miles overhead as brightly as the full moon does, is proposed in Nature, British official science journal. The new light would be an artificial aurora, A single radio station could cover a patch of sky sixty miles in diam- eter with this light. It would il- luminate country roads as well as ordinary lighting systems would, and could be used anywhere. CANCER OVER 60 An "alarming” increase in can- cer deaths among persons over 60 shows that their period of life is the "dreaded cancer age” for Americans. Deaths in the-over-60 class almost doubled from 1910 to 1930. HEAT TREATMENT OF STEEL A revolutionary heat-treating process in steel making was de- veloped at the Kearny (N.J. ) lab- oratories. By its use ordinary carbon steels can be given prop- erties otherwise obtainable only in the more complex alloy steels. A piece of steel can be , made hard enough to scratch glass and yet remain so ductile that it can be bent into a coil of small diam- eter. SNAKE VENOM EYE TREAT- MENT The venom of snakes (rattle- snakes, watermoccasins, cobras) most deadly to man may soon prove one of the most effective treatments to save eyesight, a South American physician de- clares. Such conditions as inflammation of the tiny, arteries of the eye, blood clots in the eye veins, and spasms of the 'blood vessels have N,;ibeen treated with the venom. 1 Ears of Corn A Foot Long A new “sweepstake” variety of corn, the ears of which measure more than a foot long and have a circumference of eight or nine inches, has been developed at Blenheim, Ont. The corn has been developed from a .variety imported three years ago from the United States and has now become The variety is a very large type of dent corn, especially adapt- ed for silo-filling purposes, said Blenheim’s reeve, Ernest M. Warwick, in an interview about the new corn. New High Score On Export Bacon At the British Dairy Farmers’ As- sociation Dairy Show held in Lon- don September 20 to September 29, first award went to Canada Packers Limited, Toronto.. The contest, which is open to all bacon curers in the British Empire (exclusive of the Irish Free State) is for the best bacon produced and cured in the British Empire. Each showing consists of four Wiltshire Sides, which are scored on the following basis: Style and Workmanship 15, Suit- ability of Sides 20, Firmness of Fat 10, Firmness of Rind 5, Colour 20, Flavour 30. It is interesting to note that the winner this year scored 96 out of the possible 100 points, and the first five exhibits all scored 92 points or better. This compares with a high score of 87 points for <3Ehe winner of the first prize last year, indicating the progress that is being made in Canada in the im- provement of export bacon. It is also interesting to note that since the contest on Wiltshire» was first, begun in 1923,‘ the prize has been awarded to a Canadian firm every year.. In the 16 years that the contest has run, first prize has been won by Canada Packers four- teen times. inauguration Of Air Express This Month Trans-Canada Air- lines Began a Service Be- tween Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Winnipeg Inauguration of air express ser- vice between Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto and Winnipeg was made Oct. 17th, by the Trans-Canada Airlines. The service extends the air ex- press routes now in operation be- tween Winnipeg and Vancouver to establish daily two-way complete express service by air between Montreal and Vancouver. In Less Than 12 Hours The initial schedule calls for “Rock Of Ages” And The Bible The words of the well-known hymn “Bock of Agés” can be coupled with quotations or para- phrases from the Bible in a very interesting way. Of course, the song is not made up of literal quotations from the Scriptures, but the lines refer to passages which are strikingly similar: Rock of ages, cleft for meâ€"Psalm Hepburn, Murphy, Open New International Bridge Before a crowd of several thousand the new International Blue- water Bridge between Port Huron, Mich., and Sarnia, Ont., was officially opened by Governor Frank Murphy of Michigan, and Premier Mitchell Hepburn, of Ontario.

President B. W. Keightley, Mont- real, told the 24th annual meeting of the Association of Canadian Ad- vertisers that an approaching busi- ness upswing in the United States would be reflected in an advance in Canadian trade and commerce. “Many indications point to gen- erally improved conditions in our country. 1 think it fair to assume that 1939 can be a better-year for most businesses than 1938. I think we have passed what has been re- ferred to as the Roosevelt reces- sion, that certain strong forces are at work in that country, which will make for a measure of recovery, that by reflection we shall benefit by those influences in Canada, and that many indications point to gen- erally improved conditions in our own country.” 62: B-8 Let me hide myself in thee â€" Exodus 33: 22 From thy riven side which flowed -â€"John 19: 34 Be of sin the double cure â€" II Kings 2: 9-10 Cleanse from its guilt and power â€"Isaiah 1: 18 Not the labor of my handsâ€"Psalm 69: 6 Can fulfill the laws demands â€" Matthew 5: 17-18 Could my zeal no respite knowâ€" Psalm 69: 6 Could my tears forever flow â€" Psalm 6: 6 All my sin could not atoneâ€"Heb- rews 10: 5-6 Thou must save, and thou alone â€"Hebrew's 10: 8-10 Nothing in my hand I bring â€" Isaiah 4: 1 Simply to thy cross I clingâ€"Gala- tians 6: 14 Naked, come to thee for dressâ€" Romans 13: 14 Helpless, look, to thee for grace â€"Philippians 4: 13 Foul, I to the fountain flyâ€"Psalm 51: 7 Wash me, Savior, or 1 dieâ€"John 13: 8 While 1 draw this fleeting breath â€"Psalm 103: 15-16 When my eyelids close in death â€"Ecclesiastes 12: 3-7 When; I soar to worlds unknown -â€"John 14: 2-3 See thee on thy judgment throne .â€"Matthew 25: 31 Rock of ages, cleft for me â€" I Corinthians 10:4 Let me hide myself in thee â€" Psalm 17: 3. IS Royal Winter Fair Is Still Growing A brilliant unbroken record of seventeen years in the two-fold field of Canadian agriculture and international horsemanship will be still further advanced when the Royal Winter Fair opens at To- ronto on November 15 with a pro- gramme of wider scope, more vivacity, larger prizes and greater variety than have marked its cumulative successes of the past. International army officers’ teams are coming from Chile, Mexico, Eire and the United States to compete with Canadian officers in the numerous Horse Show events of the eight-days’ en- gagement. 170 Classes In Horse Show Several operating changes . in the Horse Show should speed up the performances enabling a larger number of classes than in any previous year, now totalling 170, to be run off in shorter time" schedules. On its agricultural side similar improvements have been made in the Royal Winter Fair classes. En- tries from new competitors in the United States, notably in dairy cattle and in sheep, have been re- ceived. It is hoped that with herds from P. E. I. and British Colum- bia, all nine Canadian provinces will find representation this year. The Flower Show The Royal Flower Show, always engaging to a wide circle of es- thetic taste, is being recast and enlarged. Fox, mink, dog, eat and fancy fish shows are being held. Largest single increase is in the Poultry Show, where almost a whole floor has been taken for a novel exhibit by the combined poultry industry, Dominion De- partment of Agriculture, egg pro- ducers and manufacturers of sup- plies. Discover Oil Near Watford STRATHROY. â€" A new oil well has been struck in the new oil field which has been develop- ing" in the Watford district in recent months. This well, which was struck on the farm of Samuel Birch, two miles east of Watford and on the land near the railway south of the highway, showed first indica- tions at the 360 foot mark, and within a short time there was approximately 300 feet of oil standing in the well This well has every indication of being- a really good producer, as it is usual, in order to obtain the best flow of oil in this section of the country that drilling must extend to 450 feet. Yard Feet Footprints 34 inches long have been found in a Colorado mine. They belong to a 35 ft. high Iguanodont taking 15 ft. . strides, which lived 8,000,000 years ago, the biggest animal yet found to have existed in North America.
