Frost Scare Has
No Terror in the
Corn Belt This Year

Chicago, Sept 6.-Frost scares
have been removed from the autumn
fashion list for 1919.
The annual terror of Jack Frost as
the demon crop killer of the Ameri-
can corn belt has almost invariably
heretofore reached climax in Sep
TENDER and October, but this year by
an unusual combination of circum-
stances the farmers, as we'll as deal
ers in corn are to enjoy virtual free
dom from worry as far as the effect
of frost is concerned-at least that
is the opinion of numerous authorities
on the Chicago board of trade. Ac-
cording to this opinion, the corn crop
of 1919 was matured SO much ahead
of the average time that danger
from frost damage is now a negli-
gible quantity.
Nearly unprecedented steady sue
cession of warm nights and sunny
days with nevertheless ample mois-
ture in store has been the chief
factor in the wonderful rapid ripening
which has blessed the American corn
crop this season. About the only
DOGGY yet to be reckoned with in
figuring on the corn crop is the
possibility of wet harvest.
How much better than usual the
situation of corn is at present in re-
gard to frost may be judged from the
fact that whereas the first killing
frost stops all further growth of
corn, the earliest date of such an
event in Chicago during the last %
years has been Sept. 18 and the latest
November %. Inasmuch as a prema-
ture killing frost has often wiped out
fortunes among heavy traders in
corn, and has crippled, farm resour-
ces throughout great stretches Of
territory the relief apparently assur-
ed this season has a value difficult to
exaggerate

CHANG ON FOR MANY YEARS
Scientists Know That Jellyfsh Live
Long, but "What Do They
Get Out of lt?''

In a recent lecture to children at
the Royal institution, London, Prof
Darcy w. Thompson told Of a jelly.
fish known as Granny that was res.
cued by Sir John Graham DalyeIl and
kept alive In sea water. Granny, ac-
cording to Prof. Thompson, was care
fully tended by Sir John and fed reg
ularly one-half mussel a fortnight.
She thrsve exceedingly under this kind
attention. Six hundred Of her offspring
were known. On the death of Sir John
she passed to the care Of an arctic
explorer and was ~bedueatIed by him
to another scientific man. Granny out
lived four protectors and died at last,
Oct. IL, 1887, at the authentic age Of
81 years, because Of the neglect or
ill-treatmeHt Of d betanist.
Prof. Thompson did not say so, but
he left 1t no be assumed that had the
neglectful betanist been as careful and
attentive as was Sir John Dalyell
Granny might yet be alive. says the
New Yerk Tribune, In which case she
would be no less than 98 years old,
and assuming that she was at least
two when Sir John found her. which
seems probable, she would be well
past the century mark.

With this statement the National

had to build themselves a bark to set

GAS for the anticipation of Ameri-
a history, on a miniature scale, it
may be noted that the colonization
took place years before the PHI
grims landed at Plymouth, Mass; that
witches were burned, Quakers were
prosecuted and m~iscreants were
ducked before similar occurrences are
recorded in New England, and that
slavery was abolished in 1884. The
B~ermudians protested long before 1776
against the mother country's rule,
until the island prisons were over full,
but relief came, in their case, not
through a declaration of freedom but
by the accession of Cromwell.

"But the essential point of contact

begin it.

to the governor of Rhode Island that
