Cosmic Rays Created b>\^nnihilation of Elements in Space - Washington. -- New evidence for the creation of powerful cosmic rays through the annihilation of the universe's commonest chemical elements, sparsely scattered in the far reaches of space, was presented here before the meeting of the National Academy of Science by Dr. Robert A. Millikan, Nobel prizeman, of the California Institute of Technology. The first evidence obtained by science that the sun's magnetic field* extends out into space, enveloping the earth and the whole solar system, has also resulted .from Dr. Millikan's latest cosmic ray researches. Millikan, with his colleagues, Drs. I. S. Bowen and H. Victor Neher, probed the earth's atmosphere with balloons practically to its top. They found that the way in which the energy in incoming, highly penetrating cosmic rays is distributed gives evidence for the annihilation theory of cosmic ray production. Elements That Are Destroyed. The most abundant elements that are destroyed in creating cosmic rays are carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen, together with relatively high percentages of sodium, silicon, and aluminum. These are among the commonest elements in the universe. The elements that give rise to cosmic rays range in atomic weight between 6 and 28. Hydrogen, and perhaps helium, are also known to be extremely plentiful throughout the universe, and the fact that no cosmic rays corresponding to their energy of annihilation have been found gave Dr. Millikan his lead to the newly recognized extent of the sun's magnetic field. The earth's magnetic field has been known to change the direction of cosmic rays. Similarly, the sun keeps the less powerful rays of hydrogen and helium origin from getting to earth. Seedless Tomatoes Grown by the Use of Chemicals Columbia, Mo.--Tomatoes without seeds are being grown in the department of horticulture at the University of Missouri here by use of chemicals. Normally tomatoes require pollinization and fertilization to set fruit, but that also means that seeds will be formed. So the Missouri workers pinch out the parts of the flower that produce the pollen, thus stopping fertilization, and then seek another stimulus in the form of a growth-promoting substance, or hormone, to cause the fruit to set. The result is that tomatoes develop normally, but instead of containing seeds and pulp, the tomatoes are solid meat. The fruit is of normal size, bujt weighs more because it is solid. The hormone used is indoleacetic acid dissolved in lanum paste at the rate' of one part acid to 500 parts paste. About three applications, put on a week or ten days apart, are required. Crusher Destroys Water Hyacinth in the South New Orleans.--Water hyacinth, one of the worst obstacles to navigation in waters of the South, can be successfully kept in control by a new type of crusher tested out by the United States army engineer corps, with headquarters here. The new boat, called the Kenny, mounts a wide chain conveyor belt forward. This scoops up the floating plants and carries them up and back to a hopper. From there they fall between heavy corrugated rollers which crush them flat. The pulped remains, washed overboard through a pipe, sink to tbe bottom and "decay. r TODAYS Active Person$> Are Subject to Colitis Attacks By DR. JAMES W. BARTON WHEN the word constipation is mentioned the first thought with many is to take more "roughage" in the food, as this roughage •will irritate the bowel and cause its muscular coats to contract and squeeze the wastes downward and out of the body. And, as a matter of fact, rough food--fruits and vegetables--is the best single treatment for the ordinary case of constipation due to soft foods and lack of exercise. There is, however, a type of con- . stipation which alternates with diar- | garded with derision and scorn berhea in which these I cause most of these helpers of hurough foods are I manity have not been altogether upso irritating that ( right in their motives. Bat today people do kite a dependable source of information about subjects pertaining to their comfort and their health and their daily lives, which gives them new ideas, a fresh viewpoint and reliable facts. This source of information is the advertising in the newspapers. Farseeing advertisers, recognizing the folly of selfishly urging people to buy their foods, seek-la win the good will and friendship of Yeaders TRITN atari ADVERTISING By CHARLES B. ROTH CONSULTING THE ORACLE N ANCIENT years and lands whenever a citizen desired information about any subject, he consulted the oracle--a mystical deity represented by shrewd and scheming men who played on the belief of ignorant people. Down through the years these oracles have paraded. They have put on various garbs. They might be called soothsayers at one time, witches at another, prophets at another, spiritualists at another--but their job has always been the same: to answer questions of people seeking infor- | mation, advice or ! help. ! The term oracle lias come to be re- Charles Roth Dr. Barton Longest Single Span " Girder Is in New York New York.--New York city's West Side express highway, pride of a traffic-ridden city, boasts the longest single-span plate girder in the United States. Bridging the New York Central railroad tracks at West One Hundred and Sixtieth street, a girder 190 feet 2 inches long overall and 188 feet 1ft inches between supports carries the massive streamlined highway. It was fabricated in two approximately equal lengths to meet railroad loading requirements and shipping clearances and to facilitate handling. " ? they cause spasm or partial closure of the bowel and cbnstipation is the result. Following the spasm and constipation there is diarrhea in which the wastes are covered with mucous. These individuals are always "aware" of their lower bowel or colon and the condition is called colitis. In order not to irritate the lining of the bowel, these colitis patients are often given soft and liquid foods, with daily doses of paraffin oil to lubricate wastes and enable them to pass readily throughout the length of the boweL Sufferers Are Emotional. It has often been found that the individuals who suffer with colitis are not usually the lazy type but are active, high-strung and emotional And just as the emotions can cause stomach, heart, gall bladder and blood vessel spasm, so also are they to blame for most cases of colitis. It is therefore only a small part of the treatment to prescribe diets in these cases. The important part of the treatment is to toy to have them understand that it is their fears, their anxieties, their worry about their own or their family's health that is causing the constipation, diarrhea, dull pain and irritable abdomen. Doctors Charles W. Mayo and E. G. Wakefield, Mayo Clinic, tell us that "the cure of these disturbances of the lower bowel (not due to organic disease) is not by a rearrangement of the diet but in attempts to control the social conditions causing the upsetments. In order to get rid of these disorders the defects in education, morality, religion and even physical heredity have to be corrected." , ' In other words, these disturbances of the lower bowel or colon can only be corrected when these individuals recognize that they have not adjusted themselves properly to their circumstances and to life. And to the extent to which they adjust themselves and acquire poise and calmness, just to the same extent will their symptoms disappear. • • • Foot Defects Should Receive Prompt Care One of the helpful things that was learned during the examination of recruits for overseas service was the importance of having normal feet--free from pain and discomfort. One may have brains and ambition, but to be unable to be about among others because of painful feet not only interferes with business and social progress but the constant nagging of the nerves affects the general health and happiness of the individual. As most of these were young men who were presenting themselves for service, it can be seen that their loot defects were not due to any heavy work that was being placed Upon them but because as little children and later as growing boys in their 'teens, proper footwear was not provided by their loving but thoughtless parents; the narrow "trim" shoe for growing boys and girls did not allow the proper width for the growing feet In writing on the subject, "Pitting the Feet for Life," Beulah France, in Hygeia, states: Business Men Guilty. "Nor are 'teen age youngsters the only ones who are guilty of foot indiscretions. While college girls and boys show sense about shoes as a rule, graduates who enter business leave foot fitness behind them. Men ^s well as women suffer all too heedlessly from hammertoes, callouses, corns, bunions and ingrowing toenails due to ill fitting shoes. It is difficult to understand why a woman is willing to ruin her posture, her gait, her facial expression and her outlook on life by wearing uncomfortable shoes. Many an impatient gesture, many a hard word spoken, many a lined and wrinkled face, may be traced to the owner's feet." Walk correctly. Do not toe either out or in, but straight ahead. If you cannot do this, your doctor will tell you whether he advises a leather lift on one side of.your shoe's heels, or whether he would suggest some other form of correction. • Copyright.--WNU Service. by giving them valuable assistance. Whoever would sell flour to a housewife, for example, must tell his customers how to make the best bread with his flour. His advertising consists of recipes. Whoever would sell you what he makes must help you to get the most of it, whether it be dress goods or automobiles, books or bouquets. We have advertising today which is in the public interest. One insurance company, through intelligent and unselfish advertising, succeeded in cutting down traffic accidents in a certain district by 22 per cent. This phase of advertising is called the service form of advertising. Evety advertisement, to some extent, is in the service form, for each offers wanted information to interested prospects. An educator said not long ago that it would be possible for aayonq^to become well and liberally educated merely by reading the advertising in the newspapers, for it contains information which can he obtained in no other way. And recently, when a great public building was constructed and the committee wanted to know what they should put in the cornerstone for future generations to inspect, they unanimously decided that the one thing which, better than anything else, told the story of what kind of a world we live in, was the advertising in the newspaper. So they sealed a newspaper in the massive granite vault. t> Charles B. Roth.
