RADlUM AND LIFE.

The Experiments That Have Been
 Made and What They show.
 Does 1t appear that any one has pre- pared from sterillzed bouillon by the action of radium or in any other way living organisms capable of multiply Ing either by repeated subdivision or by means of spores or capable of pro ducing definite fermentive changes such as those which we associate with so many of the organisms hitherto in- vestigated? The answer jumps straight to the lips. No such discovery has been recorded nor has anything been ob- served which would justify us in sup posing that we are on the verge of making such discovery at the present moment.
 The fact is that, though much has been written and among other things quite a big book, very little has really been accomplished up to the present. A few preliminary experiments sug- gested by the marvellous qualities of radium have been made, and that Is all. Those experiments and their re suits, which are not at all revolution ary, may be described in half a dozen sentences. MT. Burke finds that when small quantities of radium bromide or chloride are scattered on the surface of carefully sterilized bouillon we'll pro- tected from the air In closed vessels minute objects appear in the bouillon after one or two days.
 These objects have been watched, and MT. Burke reports that after their first appearance they develop into two dots, next present the appearance of dumbbells and subsequently, of bis cults, afterward take on forms which remind an observer of frogs spawn and finally divide, lose their individual ity and become transformed into mi mute crystals.
 These bodies, which MT. Burke very prematurely describes as "cultures," do not multiply, as living organisms should do, when they are transferred to fresh tubes of sterilized bouillon, though, as might be expected, they give some slight evidence that the ac- tivity of the radium salt Is not quite exhausted by it's first action, and they are soluble in water.
 Now. it would be dogmatic to say that radium will not generate life in organic matter, but clearly MT. Burke gives us little or no reason to suspect that it does so at present.-Cornhill Magazine.

Trees Worth Growing.

AS ornamental trees the beeches at tract attention primarily on account of their dignity of form and peculiar ly "clean" appearance; they give am pie and spreading shade; the leaves are remarkably free from the insect pests, and they can generally be readi- ly transplanted. They thrive best in a rich, deep, sandy loam, but will grow well in any ordinary soil. The trees attain a height of so to 100 feet. In the different seasons the beech pre- sents totally different pictures. In summer 1t is broad dome of grateful shade; in winter a glory of dazzling light gray; in spring 1t floats out its soft velvety gold green leaves, and in autumn 1t Is a rich and mellow min gling of subdued yellow browns and grays.-Garden Magazine.

products from inSect TaVaseS ~ HO tSss than s7oo, ,ooo, 900 or more than the entire annual expenditure of the na- tlonal government, including the pen sion roll and the maintenance of the army and navy. In one year a single insect. the chlnch bug, caused a loss of 1000, 900 and .the Hesslan fly caused a loss of $24,ooo,ooo In only two states In one year. A careful es- timate of the average annual damage caused to tbe apple crop by the eodlln moth shows 1t to be S2o,ooo,ooo. MIL lions of dollars damage Is caused each year by the San Jose scale, the exact loss by it being impossible to estimate because 1t attacks so many different kinds of fruit trees and bushes, and not only ruins or injures the fruit produc- ton but kills the plants outright. Mil- lions ofss dollars are lost each year by cotton or boil worm, attacking corn and cotton; corn root worm, cut worm, plant lice, web worm, plum curculic, especial to the apple; scale insects, canker worm. apple maggot, bark bee tie. warble fly and hundreds of other species.
 Insects become injurious when they destroy or injure cultivated or useful plants, stored food, books clothing, live stock or carry disease to either man or Edomesticated animals. Insects which simply annoy, as the bedbug and cockroach are not counted. Insects are beneficial when they destroy injur- ious insects, noxious plants, decaying animal or vegetable matter, when they polllnate plants, make soil, form food or clothing for man or can be made use of in the arts, as shellac and coch- ineal insects.
 Nature maintains a balance which man upsets when he attempts to culti- vate and raise a quantity of certain plants at the expense or exclusion Of others. Practically every plant has certain insects that naturally iced upon 1t and tend to hold it in check, and as man produces more of certain kind of plant, nature produces insects to de- stroy 1t. In many instances the with drawal of the natural food of some species of insects forces them to take another, which may be a cultivated plant. Such a notable instance Is seen in the Colorado potato beetle, which until few years ago naturally fed on wild plant in Colorado. but now injures the potato plant all over the United States. Most plants, wheth- CT cultivated or uncultivated. have many different species of insects that tend to destroy them. For instance the apple has 28l species, the clover plant 82, the beet 70 and so on through out the list startling figures are to be found. That injurious insects cause an enormous damage is well known and many attempts have been made in the last thirty years to calculate as accurately as possible this yearly or annual damage and to reduce 1t to a money value. Many factors and influ- ences enter into the estimate and react on one another In such way as to render exact figures difficulty or im- possible. If the insects destroy one half the numberof barrels of apples grown this year Is not the remaining half worth about as much In money value to the state as the whole would be2 On the other hand, If the yield
