HARD TO KILL

A member Of the University OF
Paris has been experimenting upon
the longevity of germs and seeds.
The subjects chosen for Doctor Bee
querel's tests were seeds Of various
plants, fungus spores and bacteria.
They were sealed up in separate vac
uum tubes, and for three weeks were
subjected to the temperature Of
liquid air (minus 100 degrees CO.,
and subsequently for n hours to the
temperature Of liquid hydrogen uni
nus ESQ degrees C.). They were
then exposed to the air and at the
end Of a year all the seeds germi-
mated, the spores coming to life"
again after two years. Doctor Bee
querel suggests that life can thus be
suspended indefinitely without dam
age to the organism.
