Smith of the University of California. Dr. Smith cites the fact that in an address at the State Fair of 1800, John Bidwell o£ Chicot one of California's most reliable early observers, stated that he had been familiar wi(h grain growing in the Sacramento Valley since 1841, and that smut first appeared there suddenly in 1854 in a field sown with Australian seed. Many early American books im fruit growing describe peach leaf curl, Dr. Smith continues. One observer said that it was first found In California In 1855. The true nature of the disease was not suspected, however. From the transactions of the California State Agricultural society, Dr. quotes the falktwing passage peach leaf curL "It is caused by the sudden change at the atmosphere from heat to cold white the foliage Is In young and tender stale of growth. As curl is caused by the action of the atmosphere and that being governed by the Creator, I believe it to be a matter of impossibility for man to prevent the ravages of curl, to any great as* tent." ; $1 lQds Trapped : h No-Man's Land *Baby Patrol9 Volunteers Are Cited for Heroism in a Dangerous M:ssion. tically new; size 16; reasonable.

These changes, known as mutations, appear as anatomical or physiological peculiarities which, once they occur in the germ line, are transmitted from generation to generation indefinitely. Mutations occur naturally even in the absehce of external stimuli, but their rate of formation is greatly increased by high-frequency radiations. Hemophilia, color-blindness, and albinism are examples of naturally occurring mutations in man. By treating the common red bread mold, neurospora, with ultraviolet light and X-rays it has been found possible to induce mutations affecting the ability of the mold *o carry Jut vital chemical syntheses. ersonm IfABY CHICKS -- Try Foxdale's «EARiLYBIRDS" this year for earlier feathering, earlier market 'site, earlier eggs and earlier profits, ROP SIRED, trapnested White, Leghorns, White Rocks, New Hamp- ., shires, and hybrid "EARLYCROSS" 1 ana .for fryers.

The microscopic."larvae of these parasites are embedded in the lean meat, awaiting opportunity to complete their development in the human body or some other favorable environment. Rigid inspection by Federal or other official inspectors -at packing plants has done much to exclude infested carcasses from the market, but the danger is still to be reckoned with, especially in uninspected, home-dressed meat. In any pase, thorough cooking of the meat is the real safeguard. Even the popular rare roast beef should be .cooked until the color has changed from purplish to a bright red. The vitality- of these p^ra-c sites is not destroyed by preservatives, steh as salt and smoke, and there is great risk in eating uncooked sausages and similar meat preparations, even though they-have been smoked.

Poison Danger „ , :t TTe dangers of the medicine cabinet are common to homes throughout the land--both urban and rural, and bottles should be kept beyond reach of small children and clearly labeled for the benefit of everyone having access to them. Medicihe Cabinets should be well lighted or a flashlight can be used. Beyond these normal hazards, there are many other sources of poisoning peculiar to the farm. Among them are poisonous , plants--poison ivy and poison oak, especially; and the four poisonous snakes of America-- the rattler, the copperhead, the moccasin, and the coral snake. Insecticides are frequently stored in or near the kitchen, with a likelihood of becoming mixed with flour or sugar.

Nine others stepped forward as volunteers. Theirs was a dangerous and an unusual mission. They were going on a <fbaby patrol" to rescue 81 French children trapped in a chateau in no-man's land. A civil affairs officer, Capt. George L. Schneider, former Brooklyn, N. Y., lawyer, had received word from the French that in a chateau near the town of Hans there were 81 children, aged two to six, who had been sent there by their parents from Nancy as a place of safety. But the path of war headed' right for the children. r-. Kids In Line at Attaek. The Americans had to captm-e Hans in order to keep their position in s near-by town. Schneider notified the commanding American officer of the children's situation, and the colonel promised to do his best to avoid the chateau in the attack. Schneider went to Company A of the 134th regiment and asked for volunteers to enter the town behind the American patrols^ They were to teach the chateau and escort the children to safety. That was when the^lO men stepped forward. It was a damp, cold night when the "baby patrol" reached the battle area about 9 p. m. Each man understood he would have to carry two babies and guide the others. The patrol reached the chateau without being fired on. Each mail placed a baby undex each arm and grouped others who could toddle around him and started back. They moved about 40 yards apart and had to stop fof rest frequently so that the children could keep up with them. ' Nazis Opei| Fire. T--- The Germans spotted the party and cut loose with artillery and mortars. EfSch Ifian, with his arms full of children, could do nothing but squat for a moment and then move slowly on. It was a long thousand yards back to their lines. The men had to hand the children over a small creek.one by one before reaching the truck that rushed them to Nancy. Despite the wet, cold ground and their lack of shoes, to say nothing of their fright at being with strange men and at the bursting artillery shells, not one of the children so much as cried. Not one child or volunteer was hurt. '• «---*• . .. Recently the captain and 10 enlisted men were awarded the bronze star--but only five were on hand to receive it. The enlisted men included Sgt.

Baby Girl Saves Mother From Serving in Jail OMAHA. -- A soldier, wearing sergeant's stripes and holding a baby, walked up to the judge's bench in Omaha police Cfotift during a recess. "Say," he said, "this baby isn't mine. I was just holding her while her mother's case was up. The judge sent her mother to jail. What $m I going to do with her?" . _The prosecutor shrugged his shoulders. Others about the bench were equally puzzled. The baby started to cry. "Well, somebody's got, to take her.r the soldier said.."I Just sat down over there and the mother asked me to hold her." The police matron fifrally took the pink, chubby cheeked year-old-girl, who gurgled happily. "Boy, you've got her now; she's yours," the soldier said and strode from the courtroom. The judge solved the problem by calling the 28-year-old 'attractive mother back to the bench and su^ pending her five day sentence on a charge of stealing $33 from Sa neighbor's house.

Milk Test Many .dairymen have experienced difficulty at times with milk which does not readily pass through the strainer. This condition may be one of the first indications of mastitis infection observed in the dairy herd. Inasmuch as a qtrip cup test used daily on each cow in the herd often reveals the animals producing abnormal milk, such as "flakes," "stringy milk," or "watery milk," college veterinarians, suggest the following procedure: Before regular milking of the cow, draw one or two streams of milk from each quarter onto a fine screen or black-surfaced material:'Use a slow full hand squeeze to avoid mistaking air bubbles for "flakes." Examine the screen or black background for abnormalities in the milk for each seeds such a5 carrots and parsnips, garter. At the present time; it mnv be impossible to purchase a strip cup. A cup covered with black cloth or a pan four to five inches wide and five to eight inches long with a thin sheet of metal painted black will serve the purpose. A piece of phonograph record cut to suitable size makes a good black background. Place the metal sheet or piece of record so that one end sits on the end of the pan with the other end inclining to the bottom. - • - Wear Orchid Hat A Detroit woman war worker, wearing slacks, and having split and blackened nails, recently purchased s hat costing $40 made entirely of ^DEchids.

Dr. H. Ernest Gak, coroner, said,the piece of glass went completely through the boy's heart. Muskrats Ritzy---- Now Marsh flares9 Legislative Ad Snbatittites Glamorous Cognomen. % BATON ROUGE, LA. -- There are no longer any muskrats in Louisiana; they're "marsh hares" now. Gov. James H. Davis has signed house bill 67St banning the use of the ancient and common name and substituting the more glamor ous cognomen. C. R. Brownell ol St. Mary Parish and Mark Picciols of Lafourche Parish drew up the bill with the hope that the new name would increase popular demand for the tasty meat of the animal, saving a large food resource The marsh hare has long been considered a delicacy by many people and became more popular during the first period of ^ meat scarcity and rationing. Last winter, one qhick-freeze and canning company received orders for three carloads of the meat, to be named for menu purposes "marsh hare."> It could not deliver, because facilities had not been organized for the collecting, icing and packing of this meat in such quantity. Regardless of name, however, the aquatic-rodent means more to this state than food. Its pelt goes to make Louisiana the largest fur producing state in the Union. Trappers sell more than 5,000,000 pelts a year; the income of their "harvest" during the last four years is estimated at $19,500,000. Along the south coastal region, state trappers produce about onehalf the national output of pelts, it is reported. The dense, soft fur Is used almost exclusively in the making of .muffs, linings and trimmings. Nor does the value of the muskrat-- or marsh hare--end with the fur. Its glandular musk is a prime perfume base. Put Youths on Probation; Must Pay for Their Fun , WINNIPEG, MAN.--Two youths; 14 and 15, were put on a year's probation in juvenile court on condition that within the year ihey pay $50 each toward the edit of 3,600 empty bottles they broke in a soft drink warehouse. Part of the sentence was that they were not to attend any movie shows in the year. In the meantime they must report to the court every week and make a payment on account of their $50 assessment. How they broke 3,600 bottles was a simple enough story when they told the court *what happened. They went into the warehouse on three-"* occasions through an open window. The first time, finding the bottle?, they impn^rised a game like "duck on the rock," putting an empty bottle on an elevation and throwing something at it. This proved too slow and they substituted a variation copied from the shooting process of Buffalo Bill. One boy would toss a bottle up in the air and the other would throw another at it. Usually both bottles were broken to this operation whether or not the marksmen made a hit.
