Algeria has lifted its ban on shipping its* beautiful horses |TC«k Issue No. 30-- '3s Sanctuary As * National Park Jack Miner's Place at Kingsville Is Both Haven for Birds and Beautiful Parkland By Lance Connery Far better known for his championship of the principles of wild life conservation, Jack Miner is nevertheless a keen student of tree and plant life. Proof of this is seen at his bird sanctuary in Kingsville, where the roadside leading to his estate is lined with literally thousands of gorgeous blooms. Yes, the naturalist has spent nearly as much time on trees and flowers as he has on his feathered visitors. Perhaps one of the choicest iris beds in North America may be seen at his home, grown through the years from bulbs donated by an admirer of the naturalist. Flowers and Birds Few gardens on the continent are made up of flowers gathered from such a wide range of climate and territory. Practically every state of the Union and every Canadian province is represented. And this floral beauty is in no way commercialized. Many a sick friend has enjoyed a magnificent bouquet of breath-taking beauty, hardly realizing that the finest blooms in North America were his. The naturalist has clear-cut views on flowers as gifts. Give flowers to the living, not neglect them for the dead, he counsels. At a recent birthday celebration, Jack Miner told reporters he would have no desire to live, but for children, flowers, birds and music. And he Fish Out of Water Dr. A. G. Huntsman, of the University of Toronto, says in the current issue of "Science" that fish out of water do not die of suffocation but of over-exertion. Chemical examination of the muscles of the fish in their normal state and when exhausted after a struggle show that the fish after a struggle have used all the glycogen, a sugarlike fuel substance, in their bodies and have changed it to lactic acid, which is like chemical ashes in the metabolic processes. The lactic acid reduces the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood. This results, Dr. Huntsman said, in the asphyxiation of the cells of the nervous system, producing irreversible changes from which the fish cannot recover. Speech Formation Until recently there were two schools of thought concerning the problem of speech production; one held that the sounds came from the vocal cords and are modified by the resonances of the cavities in the throat, nose and mouth; the other held that the vocal cords supplied the puffs of air which were converted into speech sounds by the cavities. A step toward solving this problem has been taken at the Bell Telephone laboratories, New York, where Dr. J. C. Steinberg and D. W. Farns-worth have photographed the vocal cords, using a motion picture camera, taking 4,000 pictures a second. The pictures showed that although the vocal-cord tone is dependent to some extent on the particular sound spoken, the principal characteristics of the sound are determined by the resonant action of the cavities of the throat and mouth. Test For Cancer A diagnostic test for cancer, which uses Congo red dye as an indicator for the presence of a malignant tumor, is announced by two English scientists, Dr. C. Wetzier-Ligeti and Dr. B. P. Wiesner, in a preliminary communication to the editor of "Nature." An extract of the blood which has been freed of all protein matter is injected into the person suspected of having a malignant tumor and is later tested with the Congo red dye. Successive tests tell whether the blood is being regenerated. A failure to regenerate blood is a common condition when malignant tumor are present. New Source of Insulin? Discovery of a new possible source of insulin, which, would eliminate the discomfort of in-jecti6ns by the hypodermic needle, was announced at Montreal last week with the publication of the current issue of the Canadian Medical Association Journal. An extract, made by boiling the fresh or dried bark from the-roots of the Devil's Club, a shrub that grows wild on the British Columbia coast, has given remarkable results in reducing the sugar in the blood of a groujp of test rabbits )f the substance by the i •u-ch - irkers, Dr. R. G. Large, and Dr. H. N. Brocklesby was made by chance. "Our attention," the article in the Journal points out, "was brought to this material through the examination by one of us of a surgical patient who, on hospitalization, developed marked symptoms of diabetes. "This person, it was learned, had kept in apparent good health for several years by oral doses of an infusion of this root bark, and is in fact still leading a normal life with the aid of this infusion." "Such a. preparation has long been used by Pacific Coast Indians, though for what specific purpose is not clear." Decrease Tuberculosis Deaths A four hundred per cent, decrease in the number of deaths from tuberculosis among young children has been brought about recently by the use of tuberculosis vaccine, the American Association for the Advancement of Science was told at Ottawa early this month. This development of immunity to the "white plague" among children, the most susceptible group, has been achieved by the use of the bacillus calmette-guer-in vaccine, originally developed at ...Gardening Notes... STARTING A ROCK GARDEN Before starting to build a rock garden, study the site to decide on a size and shape that will blend into the garden design. Place the stones so that two-thirds of each one is beneath the soil surface to simulate conditions to which most of our rock garden plants are accustomed. Arrange the stones in a natural position--which precludes standing them on their ends. Let the surface incline toward the back so that the rain water will drain into the soil and not run over the forward end. Potted plants of perennials now in active growth may be obtained as planting material. CUTTING THE LAWN Cutting the lawn ' ort often upsets the balance between top growth anr1 root system. In addition, it exposes the crowns o£ the plants to the direct rays of the summer sun. Young tender blades are seriously affected. Much of the soil surface also is fully exposed to the sun, and water evaporates from these areas at an alarming rate. The roller of the mower should be set as low as it will go so as to half to two inches over the crowns. The first and second cuttings with the high blades perhaps leave a somewhat disappointing sight since the effect will be quite different from the accustomed results. This condition urges many gardeners- to fall back upon shaving the lawn in the conventional style. But those who have the courage to go on will find the appearance of their lawn greatly improved by the third cutting, and when the fourth is completed they likely will be completely converted. CANADA LILY The Canadian lily (Lilium cana-dense) also is known as meadow lily and wild yellow lily. It is more common than any other other of our nativelilies, ranging from New Brunswick and Ontario southward to Missouri, Georgia and Alabama. While it does well in the garden, provided favorable growing conditions are present, plants found in wilds tally i stature and number of flowers to the stem. When in bloom they stand anywhere from two to five feet in height, carrying from one to ten flowers at the top of the slender but strong flower spike. The inidvidua! blooms are two or three inches in length, and when fully open are almost twice as wide. . The bulb; ther autumr lime in the ered about their nath t be planted ipring. They r and should be inches deep, nts they take kind- ly to semi-shaded positions. They also appear in open mountainous meadows, where they never suffer from want of moisture. The blooming season falls in June and July. minarp's -^llf lli|J;?al!lis» LinimemT DIXIE is always fresh because you j:ut it as you use it/ DIXIE plug smoking tobacco the Pasteur Institute in Paris, France, more than ten years ago, _Dr. J. Baudouin of the University of Montreal declared. Touch Sense Studied The study of single layers of molecules, which at first appeared to be of purely academic interest, is likely to become of great importance in explaining obscure phenomena that have been puzzling scientists for a long time. One of the problems is nerve conduction. It has long been a mystery how, if we touch something, the knowledge of that contact is relayed to the brain over the nerve Dr. Irving Langmuir, of the General Electric Research Laboratories, New York, in an article in the current issue of "Science" describes the overturning of these layers and concludes that this phenomenon "may help explain the mechanism of the propagation of nerve impulses." A young man applied for a position and was granted an interview. After the usual preliminaries the manager said: Manager--"Have you any ambition?" Young Man--"Ambition? I shall never rest until I see you out of that chair." The Little Cabin Only in the little cabin, where the poor man's children play, Have the feet of time passed lightly o'er the threshold day by day.

Only on the little cabin with a door-way rose-entwined Has the hand of Time fallen gently, leaving simple joys behind. Jerry--"I read Winchell's column aloud just to annoy the neighbors. There's a fellow, that Winchell--a second Abraham Lincoln." Carter--"What do you mean, a second Abraham Lincoln?" Jerry--"He's for the peep-hole, by the peep-hole and through the peep-hole." Teacher--"Now, can anyone tell me what a myth is?" Little Loretta--"Please, teacher, it is a female moth." Sick Man (as the nurse let him sit up for the first time) -- "Gee! I wouldn't let them operate on me again for a million dollars!" Doctor (coming along just then with a worried look on his face) --"I'm sorry, but I shall have to open you again." Sick Man (letting out a roar)--. "Nothing doing! I won't stand for it! I won't stand for it! Absolutely not!" Doctor (arguing) -- "But, it's something that just has to be done. You see, a terrible mistake was made. When I sewed you up I left one of my rubber gloves inside you." Sick Man--"Is that why you wan to open me again?" Doctor--"Yes." Sick Man (smiling)--"Don't be silly! Here's a quarter--go out and get yourself another rubber glove." Scotch Classification Third Class Caddy: One who can go nine holes without losing a ball.

The new code abolishes the death' penalty and aims generally not to retaliate against but to improve the criminal. A judge's first consideration will not be the actual crime but the motive. Insane Cared For The code aLo provides means to protect the community against habitual criminals such as drunkards, incorrigible wiv.:gdoers and cases of incurable insanity by confining the victims in sanitariums or prisons for indefinite periods.
