Doubts Radiun at
Bottom Of Sea
(By United Press Associations


Minneapolis, Jan. 3.-"Absolute
sheer nonsense" This was the COM
ment today of Prof. A. J. Kovarick
of the University of Minnesota on the
statement of Prof. Harry Jones of
Johns Hopkins University that mil
lion tons of radium could be found at
the bottom of the sea. Prof. Kovarick,
one of the worlds deepest students of
the mysteries of radium, and teacher
in the physics department at the Uni
versity of Minnesota, declared he did
not think his fellow professor meant
to convey the impression, widely re-
ceived, that million tons or any other
large amount of radium lay available
at the bottom of the sea.
Bring me pailful of rock or soil
or ton of it and ask me to extract
the radium from it and you have done

J. G.. DELOZIER IN
REAL ESTATE FIELD

J. G. Delozier is a name that has
been familiar to the people of the
valley for years, he having been in
the furniture business in Ell Centre
from the founding of the town until
a few months since, when he retired
from mercantile life to enter the real
estate business. AS a matter of fact:
however, when in the store business he
was a farmer and realty investor, and
swung TO the real estate business as
naturally as could be, in which he is
making great success.
Associated with him as assistant is
Harry Krotz, also we'll known and
successful in realty transactions.

one thing, but ask me to take a mill
lion tons of earth or water and take
the radium from it and you have done
something else. 1t is nonsense to
think of handling the volume of Mat
ter necessary to obtain a million tons
of radium." To illustrate how mon
sensical" he thought it, Prof. Kovar-
lex gave the results of some investiga-
tons.
"Radium," he observed, twas OBJ
tanned for practical commercial and
laboratory purposes principally from
pitchblends and carmotite. From a
ton of pitchblends -hundredth
Of an ounce Of radium could be OBJ
tanned, or an amount as large as a
small pea, A ton of carmotite would
yield about one-sixth as much as the
pitchblends. The water of the sea
contains 1,00O,0O0,00O times less than
pitchblend. Radium, we think, is in
everything about u.s." said the pro-
fessor, "but how to get it out in suf-
ficiently large quantities is an I'M
solved problem. You must handle too

by an automobile at Second and C
street early Tuesday morning, passed
away early this morning, and COM

much matter to get it." Prof. Kova-
rick was skeptical of the power of
radium to cure cancer, the use of
which for that purpose was recently
announced.
"Radium will cure some diseases of
the skim" he said, "but l cannot see
how it can be used successfully for the
treatment of cancer. If the cancer
could be followed by radium to its
depths it might be possible, but it
seems to me that the disease is too
deep seated. There are three differ
ent radium rays. Two of them, the
beta and the alpha, are specially use
full for medical purposes. They have
a destructive effect on tissue, and if
rightly applied may be used to de-
stroy certain diseased tissues without
destroying the normal tissue. The
rays consist of the most minute parti-
cles of the radium thrown out from it.
Europe is ahead of US in the use
of radium for medical purposes. There
seems to be too much pedanticism in
American hospitals. The N-rays,
which are very penetrating, like the
gamma rays of radium, are relied on
in place Of radium, which is eostlier.
But radium is becoming better appre-
ciated, so much better that in the
past six months the price per MILL
gram has gone from $50 to 500.

Catarrh of the throat is not only an

Blankets of Bark.

Blankets grow on trees in Ecuador,
and while the idea of an all wool, fresh
from the forest, bed covering might
give insomnia and a backache to the
child of civilization who likes to snug
gle comfortably under several layers Of
down and wool, the natives find it all
right, as in fact 1t is. When an Ecua-
dor Indian wants a blanket he hunts
up a demajagua tree and cuts from 1t
a five or six foot section Of the pecul-
iarly soft, thick bark. This is damp
ened and beaten until the flexibility Of
the sheet is much increased. The rough
gray exterior is next peeled off and the
sheet dried in the sun. The result is a
blanket, soft. light and fairly warm, of
an attractive cream color. 1t may be
rolled into a compact bundle without
hurt and with ordinary usage will last
for several years.

WIRE MEN AMALGAMATE.
Factionists Vote to Join Brotherhood
of Electrical Workers.

Members of the genuine Brotherhood
of Electrical Workers, which is affiliat-
ed with the American Federation Of
Labor, will rejoice that a hard blow
has been given the secession organiza-
ton. The Pacific district council of
that organization, which was the lar
gest one in it, recently voted two to one
in favor with affiliating with the legiti-
mate International Brotherhood. This
takes away the strongest prop Of the
factionists, says the Minnesota Union
Advocate.
For years a bitter and wasteful war
has been waged by this faction against
the true brotherhood, and its interna-
tiOnal officers have opposed or evaded
all efforts to effect an amalgamation
and secure peace. The American Fed
Grafton of Labor tried all the means
at its command to work out an ad-
justment of the differences, but the
secession leaders would not agree to
any proposal, however liberal 1t was.
The American Federation of Labor
then outlawed the faction. 1t appealed
to the courts and lost in every case
Finally the funds 1t had kept tied up
were released to the brotherhood by a
high tribunal.
The PACIFIC district council, which
has voted to go into the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor, embraces more than
seventy unions in California, Oregon,
Washington, British Columbia and
parts of Arizona, Nevada and Idaho,
the membership Of which is very large.
The victory of the brotherhood is COM
plete, as there is scarcely corporal's
guard of seeding electrical workers
left together in any part Of the coun
try.

FEATHERS AND EGGSHELLs.

Occasionally a turkey hen lays in
August. Such eggs should be cooked,
not set, unless one lives out Of the
frost belt.
Thousands of thrifty housewives
will not worry If storage eggs mount
highest ever this winter. They have
millions Of eggs down in water glass
and will save money and have sweeter
eggs for buildings and pumpkin pies
accordingly.
With such a big corn crop and corn
lower than most other grains, it Is
temptation to feed much Of this grand
staple. But whether high or low corn
is hog fattener and if fed too plen-
tifully the hens egg machine soon
clogs with fat and the winter egg rec
ord is knocked.
An old saying declares, ut is I'M
lucky to bring in eggs after dark"
How true! In summer they will be
heated; in winter they will be frozen
and the germ killed, and then you are
apt to gather and sell rots you have
unwisely used for nest eggs, and then
bughouse beat.
We are in an era when humans are
reaching out to nature and the sim
pie life is calling. Those who go in
for poultry will find an ever increasing
market and day full of hard work
also, but such is real life.
Forty thousand persons in one day
paid to see the poultry at the recent
show ON Young's million dollar pier
at Atlantic City. That show saved
many a fellow from being lassoed,
bunkoed and then 'throwed" by the
slick summer girl.
The fact that hogs can stand an
awful lot of filth is no proof that they
thrive best in that style. Same with
fowl. Let bughouse people remember
they are raising these animals to eat,
not to pollute the atmosphere and
breed an epidemic.
One hundred and eighty-five million
eggs are Matched in Egyptian incuba-
tors each season, bean straw or camel
dung cakes being used for fuel. The
Egyptian operators are very skillful,
and, though the eggs are gathered
with little regard to their source, the
loss is only about one-third
Cuba was the largest buyer of eggs
from the United States last year,
100000 dozen being shipped to the
island. The game, for cockfighting,
has been the principal breed. AS cock
ing is now unlawful, better breeds
will supersede the game. and more
market poultry and eggs viii be pro
duced.
Canada stood second among our egg
customers last year, importing 2,250,-
600 dozens. Winter eggs were at n
premium, sold higher than in the Unit
ed States, and the demand was greater
than the supply.

AN UNUSUAL SIGHT.

turkey population has dropped from
6,594,O95 to 3,66S,70S.
That's not very much turkey to fill
the aching void Of 100000 hungry
turkey epicures. But it's really no
wonder there is turkey famine. The
nature faker has bungled the job.
The turkey has been bred and fed I'M
naturally, has been made prone to dis
ease, and deadly turkey blackhead has
killed millions and put most Of the
country in the turkey graveyard class.
The national and state agricultural
departments have paid little attention
to the turkey, and ten more years of
such neglect and nature fake tactics
will finish the turkey tribe. The conserv-
alton and propagation of wild turkeys
for wild blood to infuse to renew the dy-
ing turkey tribe and return to natural
methods will restore the turkey pOpu-
lation. Until this is done the vast ma
jOrity must eat chicken.
While turkeys, ducks and geese de-
crease, chickens jump from 23,566,921
to 2SO,345, 1873. That's three chickens
apiece for the whole population, and
tender, juicy chicken is sure bully
substitute for turk.

Unbreakable Glass.

The strengthening of glass in recent
French experiments consists of thin
sheet of celluloid between two layers of
gelatin, each covered by a sheet Of
glass Perfect adhesion is given by
submitting the whole to heavy pres
sure. The compound glass is perfectly
transparent and when struck a heavy
blow with a hammer, stone or other
object is simply cracked locally, with
no flying about Of sharp fragments.
Such glass should lessen injuries in
accidents to automobiles, railway car
riages, etc.
