GEOLOGY OF THE GRAND CANYON
Bulletin of United States Geological
Survey Describes Vast Wonders
of Natures Eandiwork.

Ever since Powel's daring boat trip
down the Colorado in 1860 geologists
have known that the walls of the Grand
Canyon display one Of the most remark
able and instructive feature of that
section if the great thickness Of nearly
horizontal strata through which the
river has sunk its bcG-strata ranging
in age from Carboniferous at the top.
on the brink Of The chasm, TO Cgmbrian
at the base.
The United States Geological Survey
has published as Bulletin 549 a report
on the geology Of the Shinumo quad
rangle- the Grand Canyon district-by
L. F. Noble. Although the bulIefia
contains considerable lithologic and
stratigraphic material that will scarcely
interest those who are not biologists,
DR.. Noble has very properly remember
ed that the people as a whole have IN
usual claims to consideration in any
publication dealing with the Grand
Soiy oli, anu has Sh4IlLNliy ouppItCu d q
setting to this more strictly scientific
work much vivid description and lucid
explanation which will help all those
who take more than d transient interest
in what they see to understand one of
the most impressive and significant Of
the inanimate works of nature.
BY far the most interesting scenic
ground in the quadrangle is Powell Pla-
teau, on the north side of the canyon.
To the geologist the views from this
plateau are encyclopedia. The rocks
that are visible represent in turn nearly
every geologic age, and the sequence
or order of deposition of each series Of
beds is apparent at glance. Every
great gelogic process is illustrated,
Perhaps the most impressive record of
all is that of uplitt and erosion. This
record, registered in what the geologist
terms 'unconformities. or breaks in
the regular and continuous process Of
sedimentary accumulation, shows that
for vast periods rocks, instead Of being
formed, were being washed away by
rain, streams, and waves, leaving a
worn surface which later sank beneath
the sea and received new sediments.
The later periods of geologic history
are recorded in the removal, by erosion,
of vast thicknesses of strata and the
production of the surface of the region
in It's present aspect The panorama
is probably the most complete geologic
revelation in the world.

A College For Teachers AT The Johns
Hopkins University

Another step towards the creation of
a teachers college in Baltimore was
taken in the recent creation of the de-
gree of Bachelor of Science IN Educa-
tion, by the Johns Hopkins University.
This marks partial fuifillment of the
hopes of the University which have
beer entertained for a number of years.
AS early as 1910, the University an
nounced its desire of establishing de-
partment for the higher training of
teachers as an organic part of the Uni
versity.
The curriculum leading to the new de-
gree will be based on the College
Course for Teachers and the Summer
Courses. The former, which were es-
tablished in 1909, are conducted during
the regular session in the afternoons
and on Saturdays The latter have
been conducted since 1911. The new
degree will be open to men and women on
equal terms. The regulations concern
ing matriculation and the curriculum
will be determined by a special advisory
committee of the faculty. The title of
Director of these courses has been as
signed to Professor Edward f. Buch-
ner, who organized and has conducted
both of these branches of the Uni
versity's activities.

This is the time of the year to keep
on the watch for the late blight o2 20
tat0es A great many growers make it
regular practice to spray their late
potatoes four or I'VE times with Bor-
deaux Mixture, but there are many Who
never spray The first application
should be made when the plants are
about six inches high This should be
repeated about every ten days during
the growing season.
The Fungus which causes the late
blight attacks the margins OF the
leaves first then It spreads RAPIDLY
over the leaves into the stem and then
into the tubers. The diseased parts
turn black and give Oft a characteristic
odOr This disease spreads most rapid

kind of weather prevails for several
days IN regions where the late blight
is known to exist, an epidemic may re
