Inventing New Animals

None of the great workshops
maintained by the institution is more
interesting than the laboratory oi
experimental evolution at Cold
Spring Harbor, Long Island. Here
men and animals are being studied
for the purpose of discovering the
laws of evolution and heredity. And
when these laws are known man can
control the process, different Great
ures being modified to meet our re
quirements of beauty, food, materials
and power.
''The carnation can be made not
only crimson, but white, yellow and
blue" says Professor c. B. Daven
port, the director of this laboratory
1T can be made as large as a chrys
anthemum, or dwarfed. So the ban
tam fowl may be made of a red color
or black or white; with a ruff, OF
without; with long tail or with nc
tail. The egg yield Iof the hen may
be raised from $50 to over two hun
dred year. The strength of the
horse can be increased, as that of the
Percheron exceeds that of the Nor.
.wegian pony"
He has invented to order such new
species as goats with wattles, cats and
guinea pigs with extra toes, ewes
with extra nipples, ETC., in order to
test various theories as to the laws
of heredity and determine also
whether new species develop by grad
ual changes and the equal blending
of crossed breeds, or by sudden steps
and jumps.
Extending these studies to man, he
has lately discovered, with other
things:
The skin color of children is not
darker than that of their darker par
ent. Consequently two blond parents
produce only blond offspring, but a
blond and brunette may produce
either blond or brunette children.
and that in crosses between negroes
and Caucasians the same rule holds;
that mulattoes produce white chill.

Thus is being fulfilled the dream

provement of animals and plans.

Worlds Greatest Telescope

And in France, there is shortly to
be cast a great four-and-a-half-ton
disk of glass which will be transport
ed to the observatory and there
ground and polished into a mirror
one hundred inches (eight and one
third feet) in diameter. This will be
mounted in the most colossal teles-
cope know to man. 1t will be 230 feet

will probably magnify that mysteri-

heavenly bodies never even suspected
by astronomers.
The stars visible in the heavens of
our Northern hemisphere have been
catalogued by astronomers, but those
of the Southern hemisphere have
been long neglected. So to meet
this want the institution has estab-

In a Human Laboratory

Ingenious apparatus for the study
of our foods effects upon our bodies
has lately been installed in "nutri-
ton laboratory which the institution
has erected in Boston. Here are to
be found a number of alright cells
in which men and animals are shut
up for various periods. Every grain
of food passed to them through air
tight valves is analyzed before they
eat it, and every bit of it which their
bodies eliminate in perspiration,
breath or otherwise is similarly
weighed and analyzed. By subtrac-
ton the exact amount of each ingred-
lent retained by the body is learned,
and the cells are equipped with ap-
paratus by which the voluntary pris-
oners may exercise or perform other
kinds of work whose effects upon nu-
triton are to be determined.
Dogs confined in one of these cham
bers move pointer whenever they
move upon the floor of their cage,
and thus their activity is measured.
Men will work a treadmill in anoth
er of these cells, now under con-
struction, which has been especially
designed for the study Of muscular
work. With this unique apparatus
the occupant of the chamber can
walk or even run at any given rate.
A number of young woman volun-
teers have already been shut up in
these cells for purposes of studying
the normal nutrition of their sex. And
another experiment has been made
with thirteen sufferers from Diabetes
their cell being equipped with bed
and chair; also apparatus for record
ing their pulse beats, respiration and
body activity. None of these expert
ments has been made with any idea
of curing patients, as has been sup.
posed by sufferers from various NAL
aides who have already applied to
the institution for treatment.

10000 Solar Systems Discovered
At point above the clouds and a
mile above sea level the institution has
established upon the summit OF
Mount Wilson, California, solar
observatory which is being equipped
with the most ingenious instruments
known to astronomy. In the presence
of Mr.. Carnegie, Professor George F.
Hale, the director, lately focused up
on the heavens a new reflecting teles
cope containing a mirror five feeL in
diameter. When the plate was &C.
veloped the ironmaster beheld lpon
it the images of sixty thousand solar
systems not previously known to as
tronomy. With another large instru'
ment, the snow telescope" which lies
fiat upon the mountain top and cover
ed by a long white shed, daylight
photographs of the suns image are
being daily taken. With these and
other pieces of apparatus is being
made study of the effects of the
sun spots upon earth's atmosphere,
which may make long range weather
forecasting an exact science. Already
it has been established by these in
struments that sun spots are great
electrical vortices, moving across the
face of the orb of day as cyclones

Mother Dead.

Mrs. Isaac Worries, mother of Mrs.
w. H. Bahrenfuss Of this city, died
Nov. first at her home an Toledo,
this state, at the age OF s. years.
Mrs. Worries was we'll acquainted
with many OF the people In Kamrar
and also here, she having visited
her daughter and family at differ
emit times while they were residents
of that place and since their remov-
al to this city. Mrs. Worries came
to Iowa with her parents In 1856
and resided in Tama county the re-
mainder OF her life. The last issue
of the Toledo Chronicle contains ov-
er column article on the death OF
Mrs. Worries, it being a fine tribute
to the memory of the departed.
Mr.. Worries, the bereaved hus-
band, is now in this city and will
make his home for some time with
Mr.. and Mrs. Bahrenfuss.
