Douglas MacArthur, Chemical Spray Kills Poison Ivy Plants Poison ivy and many other nox- fous weeds can be killed easily with a spray solution of a new chemical brought out-by 'the du Pont laboratories. Known as am- monium sulfamate (not sulfate), the compound is .non-poisonous and free from fire hazard, It sterilizes the soil for a brief period only. Weeds killed by spraying with ammonium sulfamate include poison oak, choke cherry, wild-- blackbérries, Russian, Canada and sow thistles. Destruction follows absorption of the chemical into the foliage and thence down to the roots. . 'BLACK LEAF 40' © Kills hoppera aphis, leaf- and other sucking Insects In gardens' and orch- ards.

The value of the term horse- power was determined by James Watt as the result of experi- ments with powerful dray horses, and is, in consequence, in excess of what can be done by an or-- dnary farm horse over a. full day's work. As determined by Watt, one horsepower is equiva- lent to raising 83,000 pounds in one minute. : * * One very simple way to cal- culate your own personal" horse- power, says Walter P. Keasbey in The Christian Science Mon- itor, is to climb a flight of stairs at top speed, - To obtain your = horsepower rating on a stair-climbing basis, first determine your exact weight. Then measure the exact height of the flight of stairs which you propose to climb in the test. Then sprint. up the stairs for all you are worth, tim- ing . yourself, or, better still, - having a friend time you, in sec- onds. You are now ready (when you catch your breath) to take pencil and paper and calculate your horsepower rating. * * First you divide the time it PAAR AED PLAY EF AL 4 DIARRHEA SR RGIR AS ERE NA SR, HAS RNR TY $ 2 .

This student climbed a 14-foot ladder in three seconds, thus attaining a rating of about 1% horsepower. . . This does not make the human engine a very efficient source of power, when it is considered that internal ¢ombustion engines have been devised which deliver as much as one horsepower for each pound that the engine weighs. If humans were equally efficient, they could climb at a rate of five miles a minute. Modern Etiquette By Roberta Lee 1. What does a bride do with her engagement ring before the wedding ceremony? 2.
