WHO DID IT?
THE Inventor OF Gunpowder"

SO many great inventions are be-
ing ascribed TO Roger Bacon, who
died in 1892, that it will amaze no
one to learn that he mentioned the
composition of gun powder in his
Justly famous book DE Nullitate
Magiae."
OF course, everybody is supposed
to know that the Chinese really in
vented gun powder and that they
used it in their fireworks long be
fore Bacon saw the light of day.
However, no invention can be
claimed to amount to very much I'M
til it is applied to something useful.
The particular distinction of hay
ing acquainted the English speaking
world with the warlike possibilities
of gun powder to one William Hun
ter, who, in July and August 1916,
gave various public demonstrations,
which convinced the military author
tiles of London that here was a new
way to take human life on a whole
sale scale.
The first man to mention the pos
sibiiity of making gun powder non
infIamabIe was George Gale, a
blind inventor of Plymouth, who
patented the process of mixing pow
der with ground glass, on June %,
1865.

Planting Wheat

Farmers interested i'll planting
wheat this fall should secure seed
of high yielding variety. The Elk
detrimental Station at College Park
has been testing out wheat varieties
for years and has found certain va
rieties to give a considerably higher
yield than others. The following
varieties have given large yields and
are generally satisfactory for this
State.
Higher Yields: -- Mammoth Red,
Chine, Currells Prolific, Turkish
Amber Bearded Purple Straw, Dietz
Longberry, Fulcaster, Bluestem.
Late planting helps to avoid the
Hessian Fly. 1t is not desirable to
plant wheat before the 10th Of Octo-
be! in this county, as the Hession
Fly multiplies in the early soWn
planting.

Picture Judas With Red Hair.

For centuries the people of Eng

TO red halr-a feeling attributed by
historians and other experts 10 the
hatred originally felt for the invad-
ing Danes-and this dislike has
cropped up In a number OF ways. Of
which none Is more interesting than
the popular impression that Judas
Iscariat had red hair and beard.
The old dramatists and poets make
frequent illusions 10 the subject.

SURGEON HAILED AS MARVEL
Practitioner In London Hospital Has
Wonderful Mastery Of the Tech
nique Of the Knife.

A lightning surgeon"-to use the
title conferred upon him by his
cOlleagues-is at work In one OF the
great London hospitals.
His time for normal case of
appendicitis. for instance. is six
minutes from start TO finish of the
operation. as against the fifteen min
utes reckoned good time In the pro-
fession generally. This implies an
enormous diminution of the ordinary
risks run by the subject. and CORE
spending increase In the chances OF
recovery. Scarcely less advantageous
Is the lessening of the strain OF
suspense which must inevitably be
endured by assistants. nurses. and
others present.
These considerations apply with
even more force in the case OF opera
tons protracted. ordinarily. to the
extreme limits OF the patients en-
durance. lasting perhaps two to two
and half hours. Seconds saved In
every manipulation of these more In
tricate cases amount in the aggregate
10 total which represents the diff
ference between life and death.
The whole business. say those
qualified 20 know best. is matter OF
almost miraculous mastery of the
technique OF the knife.
