was jumping about in astonishing fashion. The
thought Immediately popped into my mind that
static signals from some other planet were prom
ably responsible. This idea took such a hold on
me that made the definite suggestion that there
be established in the ore fields of Michigan a sta
ton where scientific vigil might be kept, In the
hope that the great masses of ore in that region
would attract magnetic signals from interplnnetary
space.
IF we are to accept Inc theory Of Mr.. MarcOni
that these signals are being sent out by inhabi-
tants of other planets. We must at once accept
with it the theory of their advanced Development.
Either they are our intellectual equals or our SUI
periors. It would be stupid for us to assume that
we have a corner on all the intelligence in the
universe"
Nikola Tesla, the famous Serbian inventor and
electrical expert says: "Marconis idea Of com

and most fascinating problem confronting the
human Imagination today. To insure success a

by astronomers with sufficient backing from men

commercial measure but will be of

THE HAND GUN IN BOIL
WEEVIL POISONING

Clemson College, March 16-Dust-
ing machines consist Of two types.
One is the traction r,achine also
known rs the traction power machine.
The bellows are driven from sprock-
cts on the axels of the ground wheels.
These machines, at present prices of
materials and workmanship, are too
| expensive for the small farmer. 1t
fore, necessary for such persons to
employ hand busting machines. None
of the old type well known busting
machines are satisfactory for this
work. Furthermore, the hand dust
! ing machine has not shown itself ca
! pablc of doing as good work as the
! traction machine and the hand ma
/ chimes are primarily intended to sup
plcmcnt the traction machines for
hooks and corners Of the plantation
| that cannot be reached by the large
machine.
The warning against the purchas-
| ing of hand dusting machines is the
same as for traction machines, name
| ly, before purchasing, the farmer
| should ask the entomoligists for in
| formation in regard to the machine
because the wrong kind is of little or
no vaius.
! 1t is believed that there will be a
number of machines ga the market
before busting begins about July, but
