PLANTS NEED COLD WEATHER I
Experiments Have Shown That In '
Northern Countries a Certain
Amount Is Essential.
According to common belief, cold
weather causes plants to become dor
mant during the fall, while warm
weather the succeeding spring again
incites new growth. Intensive inves
tigations of Dr. Frederick V. Covilje
of the federal Department of Agricul
ture, which have been conducted over
a period of ten years, and which have
cowered every phase of this subject,
demonstrate that both of these tra
ditional theories are erroneous. Dor
mancy in ouf native trees and shrubs
begins iKime time tjie start o?
cold weather each winter; the appear
ance of Jack Frost is not necessary
tor the establishment of complete dor
mancy. Furthermore, after such a
condition of dormancy has developed,
exposure of the plants to the ordinary
growing temperature thereafter does
not arouse them from their lethargy
so that they begin growth anew.
Interestingly enough, the Coville ex
periments show that plants which
ha?e responded to the lore Os au
tumnal and winter dormancy will not
react properly and resume normal
growth the following spring unless
they are subjected during the interim
to a period of chilling. A certain
amount of cold is essential to stimu
lating the plant growth.—Scientific
American.
LIARS PRETTY WELL MATCHED
American Evidently Found Foeman
Worthy of Hie Steel, in Old
English Farmer.
An American poultry fanner went
over to England to have a look round
the poultry farms there and see where
the farmers were making mistakes.
He did not hesitate to tell how far
advanced was the art of poultry keep
ing in America, and spun several very
tall yarns on that subject.
Twenty chickens from twelve eggs
appeared to be an everyday occur
rence in the United States, If the
stories he told could be believed.
But a bluff old English farmer was
not unduly impressed.
“Happen, maister,” said the old
man, “ye have never seen as many as 1
a hundred chickens hatched by ope
hen at a setting?”
“Waal,” answered the American, “I
can’t say that I have, but —*’
“Well, then, listen here, maister;.!
have,” returned the fanner. “Down
Ipswich way we alius fill a barrel with
>ggs and set the old hen on the bung
hole!” —Houston Post.
The Sex of the Planes.
When the negroes of Stanley Pool
saw the first two airships of the Bel
gian postal service land in the Congo
region, their first impulse was to run
away. However, on recognizing the
uniform of the officers who descended
from the apparatus, they Immediately
returned.
The next day their fear had com
pletely disappeared. Why should they
be afraid of these big birds? Were
they not tamed by the white men?
For they were surely a couple of
birds; and without hesitation they
pointed out the male bird and then the
female.
Asked by what they could distin
guish one from the other, they replied
that it was not difficult. The birds did
not know the country; the male bird
descended first, then he called his fe
male, that came down to laud after
him.
It Is Mr. Louis Franck, minister of
the Belgian colonies, who told this
story at the Sorbonne.
Grim Joke for the Professor.
President H. O. Vance of Oska
loosa college said in an address in
Oskaloosa:
“The post-war changes have hit no
body harder than they have hit the
college professor) The college pro
fessor is one of the poorest men in
the world today.
“A young Latin Instructor proposed
to a young lady and was accepted.
After their first tender transports i
were ovefc they fell Into serious talks.
“ ‘Now we are engaged,’ said the .
young woman, ‘we must begin to econ
omize. Promise me, darling, that you
won’t do anything you can’t afford.’
“The young lady instructor laughed
grimly.
“ ‘lf I promised you that,’ he said.
‘l’d have’ to break off our engage
ment.' ” —Rehobo;h Sunday Herald, i
Pavement Is Billboard.
City streets and sidewalks may be
converted into temporary billboards
by an Invention resembling a lawn
roller that prints,the advertising mes
sage in water on the asphalt.
As the machine is pushed along by ;
Its. operator, a spray of water from
the tank in the upper half passes
through a perforated belt or drum that
acts as a stencil. The belt is of fine
wire gauze with waterproof letters 1
fastened upon it. In consequence it
leaves a band of wet, dark pavement
behind It, upon which the words of
the advertisement stand out—dry and
white. —Popular Science Monthly.

Antiquarians are puzzled to account
for some old coins found in the
stomachs of bullocks slaughtered after
grazing on the Sheepey marshes
Among the coins obtained from dif
ferent animals during the past few
days are a small coin dated 1796 bear
ing the name of Victor Amed of Sar
dinia, a Charles II farthing datOO

OPPOSED CREAM IN COFFEE
Frenchman, a Century Ago, Ascribed
All Sorts of Human Ills to ths
Custom.
Arsene Thlebaud de Bemenud, li
brarian a century ago to the Bibllo
theque Mazarin, Paris, opposed with
ferocity the then comparatively new
custom of adding milk or cream to
black coffee. The latter, in the au
thor's language, was “consoling, joy
ful and, I had Dearly said, spiritual”
in its effects. But let ever so small a
quantity of milk or cream be added
and the result upon the human econ
omy was mogt disastrofis.
- Since the dawn of this vicious cus
tom pnuemonia and consumption in
the cities had increased one-half and
rural communities formerly immune
•Were now beginning to show cases of
Ibese ailments.
According to Le Progres Medical,
which obtained the above information
from a new popular review, La Con
naissance, de Berneaud claimed that
many eminent physicians shared his
opinions. He seems to have had an
obsession tliat all mixtures of fluids
were injurious, and extended his pro
scription of milk addition to tea, choco
late and spirits. Sustained by this pre
conceived notion, he was able to pub
lish a long diatribe in 1826, in which
he accuses case au lait of causing al-
most every derangement known to
medicine. But, rabid as he sounds, he
was fatuous enough to admit that per
haps 10 per cent of the people might
be tough enough to drink case au lalX
without disastrous results. —New York
World.
BUILDING UP BUFFALO HERDS
Department of Agriculture Has Had
Gratifying Success With This
Part of Its Work.
Forty-six new buffalo calves are re
ported on three of the four game pre
serves maintained by the biological
survey of the United States Depart- <
went of Agriculture for the special i
protection of buffalo. On the national i
bison range, in Montana, there are 417
buffalo, including 28 calves born this
spring. Fifteen calves are reported at
the Wind Cave preserve, in South Da
kota, and 3 at Niobrara, Neb.
The department has been very
fortunate In maintaining the herds
established at these three points and
at Sullys Hill, North Dakota. There
are relatively few large buffalo herds
now scattered over the country, and
the biological survey has made special
efforts to provide suitable ranges and
protection for what threatened a few
years ago to become an extinct
species of native American animat
Interesting Powder Horn Map.
A map engraved on an old powder
horn may lead to the location of the
sites of several Cherokee Indian
towns in western North Carolina, ac
cording to the Bureau of American
Ethnology at Washington.
The powder horn Is a loan from
Hugh Kirk, Newtownards, County
Down, Ireland, and dates from about
1750 when the English were beginning
to open up the Cherokee region. It
belonged to James Grant, member of
a company of British soldiers sta
tioned near Charlestown and near
Fort Loudon and Fort I’rince George
in the Cherokee country about the
time that these forts were besieged.
The horn is elaborately engraved
with the royal arms of Great Britain
and the map showing the ancient
, town of Uucassee and other towns in
the region in which the soldier saw:
service.
Perpetual Motion Discredited.
It sveins hardly credible, but up to
the year 1772, there was no scientist
in all Europe who knew enough to
categorically deny that there was such
a thing as perpetual motion.
It remained for Sir Isaac Newton
and the French scientist. De La Hire,
to demonstrate beyond doubt the im
possibility of attaining it.
Quite a little time passed before
the scientific world In general was
willing to accept the Newtonian the
ory, but finally the French Academy
of Science at Paris, in 1775, publicly
declared that perpetual motion was i
an impossibility and thereby branded ,
all those who still insisted upon ex- I
pcrlmentlng with it as charlatans.— :
Pittsburgh Leader.
Multiplies Scenery.
A Russian widow, Mme. Ivan Bout
kovsky, has devised an ingenious
scheme fcr “multiple scenery," where- j
by two scenes are painted upon one
canvas. .Colored lights are thrown
upon this drop-scene, which bring out
certain colors while concealing others,
so that with the same stage setting
either a landscape or an interior may
immediately be brought Into view.
Playing several acts with one set us
scenery Is an idea that should appeal
strongly to producers, both as a nov
elty and from an economical point of
view.—Scientific American.
Radio in Indo-China.
Indo-China Is covered with a com- i
plete radio telegraphic system, com
prising 15 stations equipped with the ;
best high-powered apparatus. The ,
country receives every night from the '
Bordeaux station in France full mar
ket and financial reports and the new? :
of the day.
Girl's Long Hike.
The Panama canal zone women’s
walking championship is held by a
twelve-year-old girl—Alma Mann —
who walked through the canal zone
from ocean to ocean, a distance of
approximately 50 miles, in 16 hours
and 2d minutes.
