But this recognition of a kingly and
imperial right 10 interfere with the
papal elections was the cause of end

creed the election should henceforth
rest with the cardinals alone" This

sided over by Pope Gregory ". and IN

Methods of Election.
There are three ways in which a
new pontiff may be elected without
balloting-by acclamation, inspiration
and alteration. Gregory VII was
elected by reclamation. but cases In
which pontiff has been chosen other
than by balloting have been rare
The balloting is secret, and the bal
lots which are used are elaborate af-
fairs. They are three part ballots. On
one fold are the name of the cardinal,
his title and his seals On another fold
is q number, and under this each car
cinal places a motto, known only to
himself. in order to identify his ballot
after IL is voted.
Then he says aloud the electoral
oath:
bear witness. Christ the Lord. who
will Judge me. that / chose him whom ]
Judge before God should be chosen. and
1 will do the same on the accession.
With these words each cardinal
drops his ballot I'm the chalice. salutes
the cross and returns 10 his place.

Here is his report.
Recent experiments have been car
ried out in Croydon. near London. on
the effect Of radium on plant growth.
It is stated that many of the results
are so promising that II is quite pos
sibe that the use of radium for crops
may become one of its important ap-
plications in the future. 1t is asserted
that radium has an adverse effect on
the 'unwanted soil organisms, leaving
the useful ones freer TO stimulate
growth.
Best results are said to be obtained
with the use of about one seven-hun-
dredth part OF a grain of radium to one
ton of soil. The residues left behind
after radium has been extracted from
minerals usually contain minute
amount of radium. When these resi-
dues, which are of comparatively little
value, are mixed with the soil wheat
and barley grow with great rapidity,
and the leaves are usually of "A darker
color. The most decisive results so far
reported have been obtained with rad
ishes and carrots. which in some cases
have been nearly six times as heavy as
those grown under similar conditions
in ordinary soil
Experiments are also being made 10

and radium emanation on the size and
color OF flowers and other market gar

the radium residues viii remain con-
