GERM CELLS CARRY HEREDITY
DIR. W. JOhannScn Shows How

DIR. W. Johannsen Shows How
knowledge of Subject Has Developed
That our knowledge of heredity is
very limited was the statement made
by DR.. Wilhelm .JOhannsen i'm his
lecture on the problems of Hered-
ity" at the Agricultural Auditorium.
last week. The lecture was
given under the auspices of the
Scientific Association and the Sigma
Nj fraternity. Doctor JOhannsen is
from the University of Copenhagen
in Denmark
Doctor Johannsen first defined he
redity, and then told the history of
the development of the knowledge
of il. The first person to make a
mathematical investigation of hered-
ity was Francis GaltOn. according
to Doctor Johannsen. He found that
the average height of one generation
was the same as the average height
of the succeeding one. He found
that it was the law of heredity that
in the human race the quantity of
variation was two thirds.
Doctor JOhannsen said that his in
vestigations We're different from
those made by GaltOn. He studied
the individual and its many off
spring. The conclusion which he
makes from his investigations is that
the germ cell from which the indi-
vidual grows is the carrier of hered-
ity.
The science of heredity is not an
exact science, according to Doctor
Johannsen. The auditorium in which
he spoke was filled

In its article mentioning Mr.. Boil
les in connection with the case the
Denver Post yesterday. said in part /:
Very briefly, omitting all details,
the working of the scheme has been
this: One million acres of land
at the southern end of Florida, in
that immense swamp called the Ever
glades, most of which is under wa
ter from two feet to Is feet deep,
was to be drained and put into or
chards. Prospective settlers bought
contracts for $240 each. paying down
$40, and $40 month. and were to
get title to their land when the price
was all paid.
The hitch lies in the drainage. The
state of Florida has dug some drain
age canals, and along these canals
are some good farms. But between
the bitches lie vast tracts of land un-
der several feet of water. and ex-
perts have said that the canals are
too small to drain this land. and the
state has not the money to dig more
bitches.
Inspectors of the postoffice depart
ment have secured indictments
against a brother of Bolles in Flori-
va anu 0tNtidi VI his 81.
charging them with using the mails
to defraud. and 1000 persons in the
Middle West have brought suit to re-
cover their money invested. They
charge that Bolles got from them
S2.2SO,O00 for land which cost him
but 100000 all told. The suit is
now pending in the courts.
More than six years ago Major ] i.
{ han t..
department of agriculture, was au-
thorized by congressional resolution
to examine the Everglades and report
on the feasibility of draining them.
and on the value of the land. He
turned in his report in 1909, and por-
tions of 1t We're used by the land
boomers to boost their game. On the
strength of this swamp lands were
sold all the way from $12 to $50 an
acre.
Then the Wright report was re-
yised by Chief Engineer C. G. Elliott
of the United States reclamation SER
vice, and his assistant. A. ID. More
house. 1t would seem that it was
a revision downward. for it was
suppressed and Elliott and Morehouse
dismissed from the service. Con-
gresham Clark of Florida says that
Secretary Wilson himself told him
lClark) that the report was suppress
ed because of the protests of the
swamp land promoters.
Not only were Euiott and More
house discharged, but Wright, who
made the commendatory report, has
been made chief engineer of the
project, and Jasper Wilson, son of
the secretary of agriculture, has been
given job with Colorado irriga-
tion promotion company at $4,000
a year.
Now, what with the suits of the in
vestors. who want their money back,
and the determined investigations of
congress, the whole truth seems like
| ly to be made public.
