SUN GIVES NO HEAT
Alexander Young of Indiana Corrects
the Astronomers.

Alexander Young, the astronomer of
this city who last spring told of dis
coveries which had led him to believe
that the sun is habitable, discussed his
theory further with The Sun cores
pendent today, says a La Porte, IN
diana dispatch to the New York Sun.
While not yet ready to state fully the
result of his discoveries concerning
the solar electromagnetic relations be-
tween the sun and the other planets.
| Mr.. Young outlined what he says win
lie the sccre of his intended announce
| ment..
Mr. Young is extremely myopic. To
! that visual defect he ascribes largely
his success "a a sun observer. Others
similarly afflicted have regarded chem
selves as barred from such long-Ta1ge
| work. With him it has served only to
ilcite greater effort and inspire the in
vention of new instruments. The
solarscope which he has devised
coupled with his peculiar eyes, has pro-
duced astonishing results.
Six months ago Mr.. Young suggested
| that astronomers have fallen into err
rors through mistaking the electrical
reflection of the sun for the planet it
! self His theory is that the sun is not
i superheated terrestrial body at all,
! but a planet favored with a mild cli-
mate, a beautifully variegated surface
and benign atmosphere, capable of
sustaining high forms of life and there
fore. on the principle thai nature per-
mits no waste, inhabited b. II, race of
| go3!ike beings.
The theory attracted wide interest
arr brought Mr.. Young Tremendous
| correspondence. He did NOT then cab
crate his ideas Of the sun spots, now
the subject of investigator AZ Every
| observatory. Today he discussed that
place of the general topic.
The sun. he believes, is tine 'Cr ,ator'
grand central dynamo statirn for the
universe; Other planes are the sub
stations, deriving their electrical en-
ergy from the solar source of supply,
Electricity is the life principe of al
nature and it streams from the sur
through the infinite interstellar and in
terpIanetary spaces. and from plane
to planet and back again to the SUI
in constantly active currents.
All heat and all light proceed from
these electric streams, for as they pas!
from atmosphere to atmosphere anC
through our own atmosphere similarly
even the most ethereal gas, they meet
with resistance of carrying intensity
and in overcoming that resistance give
off heat and light. The atmosphere
surrounding the sun reflects the light
of the electrical currents passing out
| from ii, and we see that reflection
through out own atmosphere similarly
lighted, and call it the sun. The Same
currents passing through our atmos
phere engender heat, and we call it the
suns heat.
No heat, no light ever passed from
sun to earth, Mr.. Young believes. ex-
cept as we may conceive it as being
stored up in an electric ray to be giver
out by this method of transformation
in overcoming resistance.
No human eye, even with the mos
powerful aid to vision. he says. has
ever pierced the suns atmosphere and
viewed that glorious orb. save his OWL
projected by his solarscope. None

Labels on Food Products.

A report from Washington says that
the Department of Agriculture is TAX
ing steps to enforce the law relative
to the sale Of misbranded articles of
food when they are sent from one state
to another. The law provides that in
each case where conviction is OBJ
tanned for the violation of this law the
culprit shall be fined not less than
$500 nor more than $1,000 for each
ofrense. The abuse of labels has been
very great and widespread. Imported
sardines" come from factories on the
coast Of Maine; imported French
vines never saw France. New
York full cream cheese is made in
the west from partly skinned milk,
and SO on. Even Elgin butter is made
in nearly all parts of the North How
effectively the law can be enforced
We have yet to see; and once enforced
we do not know that it will stop the
fraud in this particular. 1t will be
perfectly easy for every wholesaler to
keep a set OF stencils and brand the
food articles as wanted This method
Of evading the law h.1 been prac-
ticed for generations. Many grocery
men now keep numerous stencils for
their flour barrel heads, and mark
them as their customers are likely to
desire. This is common practice in
the case of q great number of foods,
especially such articles Of food as corn

Imported Cattle Improved.


Dairy cattle constitute the foundation
and all-important factor Of the indus

own in America; we have adopted
those originated in and brought from
other countries. Even our native"
or common" stock or scrubs" are
but mongrels of the breeds OF another

shres and Guernseys and IIolstein-
Friesians and Jerseys in their native
lands. These are the four races of
cattle upon which mainly rest the
present and future prosperity and
progress OIL dairying in America. Yet,
we must not forget to note the blood
of the good old milking strains of
Shorthorns as an excellent foundation
upon which to build up profitable dairy
herds. 1t Is needless to enlarge upon
the good qualities and characteristics
of these distinctively dairy breeds, but
il is worth noting that all Of them
have improved upon our hands. 1t
may not be that the average quality of
any Of these breeds as they now exist
in the United States is above the aver
age OF the same race upon its native
pastures. but in all Of them there are
now on this continent animals super
ior to the best on the other side Of
the Atlantic. The breeding and man
agement have been so good here that
the cows imported and their descend
ants have made indisputable records
as dairy performers, excelling any
known in the countries from which
they came. Personal observation has
convinced US that we now have dairy
cattle in the United States so good
that nothing can be gained beyond the
fancy or satisfaction in new blood by
further importations from Ayrshire or
any part OF Great Britain, the Channel
Islands, or the Naturalization

Butter az Fuel

The first instance of where butter
has been used for fuel that we have
heard Of is reported from the Edge
wood creamery in siskiyou county,
California. A fire broke out in the
neighborhood Of the creamery that
threatened the plant which was only
saved by hastily getting up steam to
operate the pump. This was done by
throwing sixty pounds of butter into
the boiler, which resulted in getting
the pump in motion by means of which
the flames were extinguished.- Dairy
