Commuter Discovers
That Vacuum Cleaner
Will Remove Insects
From Young Trees

This story is told of commuter
who owns a small garden and some
young fruit trees. He had no sprayer,
and had been industriously picking
bugs off his plants and trees, but
could not satisfactorily reach all the
branches Of the latter without danger
of breaking them. When he was
ready to tackle the trees he brought
out his wife's vacuum cleaner, attach
ed the long nozzle intended for the
cleaning of walls and picture mold
ings, spliced the wire to make a long
enough connection for the porch and
garage electric light sockets, and sue
cessfully removed every bug from
even the topmost branches of his
young trees.
Newark post., 1921-08-24
Male Chicks from Large Eggs

A French scientist, Lienhart, has
carried out experiments which indi-
cate that there is a correlation be-
tween size and weight of eggs and
sex of chick. The heavier eggs were
found to produce a large proportion
of males, the lighter eggs a large
proportion of females. For the sue
cessful application of the device, it
was found necessary to use eggs pro-
duced by pure-breds and from a pen
of hens out of the same brood. 1t
was found desirable, further, to set
eggs laid at the height of production,
as there is an apparent tendency with
all hens to lay eggs of less weight at
the beginning and also toward the
end of a litter.
The discovery, if such it can be
called, has not yet been fully ex-
plotted, and it's limitations as well as
capacities shown. The reasoning
which led to the first experiments is
interesting.
The experimenter had observed
that in all breeds and varieties of
poultry the male is markedly heavier
than the female. Through tests, he
was aware also that this difference in
weight was true of the chicks, being
determinable in the first days of life.
He reasoned that the difference
would also be apparent in the egg.
American poultry-raisers can be
depended on to give the sex-determi-
nation plan of Lienhart prompt try
out. The desirability of being able to
regulate the proportion Of pullets and
cockerels in the hatch when setting
the eggs is of prime Importance. Set
ting eggs at present, the poultry
raiser calculates on about fifty per
cent females. The males are nee
essary evil, so to speak. They are
sometimes sold for broilers or fries at
two months or later, in other cases
raised to the roasting stage. This
necessity to hatch many males which
are not needed requires more exhaus-
tive poultry equipment than would be
needed were it possible to regulate sex
of the matches. Should sex-determina-
tion become practical, it would alter
poultry conditions to considerable
extent, and result in the marketing OF
the prospective roosters in egg form,
with the prospective hens reserved for
hatching.-Scientifc American.

Plant Pests Cause Loss of
Millions of Bushels of Wheat

If all the wheat now destroyed an
nually by pests could be saved and
made into flour the United States De-
partment of Agriculture says it
would add approximately 29,463,700
barrels to the yearly output of the
Nation. The annual production of
wheat in this country for the four
year period 1916 to 1919, inclusive,
was 7s3,s49,500 bushels. The annual
loss from disease during this period
was 147,318,500 bushels.
While it is not possible entirely to
eliminate wheat diseases, it is possible
to reduce the toll much below what it
has been in recent years, says the de-
partment. One branch of the work of
the office of cereal Investigations in
the Bureau of Plant Industry is to
work out the preventive and control
measures for the diseases of all
cereal crops. Another branch of the
work of this office, which is of equal
Importance in increasing production
of cereal crops, is the development
and introduction of superior varieties
of grain which produce higher yields
in localities where they are especially
we'll adapted, or which have disease
resistant qualities. This work is
carried on in cooperation with the
various State experiment stations,
and in many cases has made profit
able farming possible in sections in
which agriculture was hazardous pre-
vious to the introduction of new crops
or varieties particularly well suited
to local conditions.

Many Uses for Sweet
Potatoes and Peanuts

During the hearings preliminary to
the presentation of the Fordney tariff
bill tothe House of Representative at
Washington, citizens from several
Southern states asked for protective
duties in the interest of special South
ern products. A list Of 107 uses for
the sweet potato was presented, and
this according to the negro scientist
who had discovered many of them,
was far from complete. The list al
ready included such widely different
products as ice cream and ink. Cereal
coffee was one of the special uses for
peanuts.
