How Old Is World?
Scientists Differ
Widely on Figures

Philadelphia, April 24.-how old
the world is, was tentatively an
swered at the closing session Of the
American Philosophical society.
Some differences existed because Of
the methods of calculation, but the
estimates placed the age at between
100000 and 100000 years. Tho
answer of Professor r. C. Chamber
lain, Of the University of Chicago,
was between 70,00O,O0O and l5O,-
OOO.0 years.. He arrived at his
conclusion. he said, by working
with methods of geoIogist and pre-
sented readings from form ations of
the sea by various geoIogists.
The answer of Professor Will
liam Duane, Of the Harvard medical
school, was between 100000 and
,7OO,0O0,000 years. His calcula-
tions, he said, were based on RADIO
Sactivity.
"ln estimating the age Of the
earth, Professor Duane said, CAL
culations from geological periods
were not reliable, because physical
conditions were not tho same and
the periods of formation Of 900.
logical structures may have been
rapid In some cases and slow In
others.

FARMER NEEDS
BETTER METHOD
OF MARKETING
Secretary of Agriculture Dis
cusses Problems Before
..- Women Voters.

Baltimore. Md, April 24.-The ques-
| ton Of reducing the cost Of living was
presented from the viewpoint of the
nations farmers, in addresses Monday
night before the national league oi
| women voters by Secretary Wallace,
of the agriculture department. and Sen
ator Capper, Of Kansas, leader Of the
senate agriculture bloc.
"If we accept our present system OF
distribution of meats and other food
products as being satisfactory sys-
tem," said Secretary Wallace, "then
any marked reduction in cost must
come first through reduction in wages,
because wages are altogether the
largest item in marketing and dis
tributing cost. whether we consider
the wholesaling or retailing. | am
not arguing that there would be large
out that the large increases in wages
are mainly responsible for the lnrge
increase in cost to the consumer
The agriculture secretary. however,
added that he did not believe that the
persent system Of marketing and dis
tribution should be accepted as salts
factory, said economies can be made
all along the line and the department
of agriculture now is making sys-
tematic study with this end i'll view
Mr.. Wallace expressed the opinion
that modern day habits of living in
large consuming centers inevitably in
crease living COSTS and to support
this belief, declared regular attendance
at afternoon movies and bridge parties
encourage the use of more expensive
cuts of meat which can be prepared
for the table in a few minutes and
more expensively processed food prod
ucts of all kinds"
Further discussing the wage aspect
Of the cost of living question, the sec
retary said that ''as long as railroad
workmen and workmen in industries
which supply material needed by the
railroads. succeed in maintaining
wages at almost twice the pre-war
normal, we cannot hope for reduction
in freight rates commensurate with
reduction in the cost of farm products,
or sufficient to very greatly reduce
the cost of food to the consumer"
He added that 'if it were possible
to bring prices of everything to about
60 per cent above the pre-war level
that would benefit most of our people
and the nation at large"
Formation Of cooperative market
ing associations encouraged under the
Capper-Volstead cooperative market
ing law, was recommended by Senator
Capper as remedy for cost of living
The spread between farmer and
the consumer will average about 20
cents Of the consumers dollar" the
senator said. This large margin, so
much larger than the entire cost of the
product, is due to our elaborate and
wasteful system of marketing.r

DYNAMITE CRUISER
HAILED As WONDER
IN 1888; IS JU|VKED
When Tested in Spanish War
Her Power Found to Be
Limited to Noise.

Washington, April 24.-The old navy
dynamite" cruiser Vesuvius, in Span
ish war days hailed as the possible
pioneer craft of new naval era, has
been sold as junk to J. Lipsitz Of Chel-
sea. Mass. for $4,260.
The armament Of the Vesuvius con-
sisted of three slanting muzzled
dynamite" guns from which huge pro-
jectiles loaded with nitroglycerine, suf-
ficient, it was said. to tear apart any
ship or fortification on which they
landed. were to be hurled by COM
pressed air.
Like many other novel craft which
were expected to sweep all battleships
from the seas as the Merrimac and
hulls. the dynamite ship" failed ut
tcrly and was discarded.
In 1895 when the American fleet
was concentrated before Santiago de
Cuba to bottle up the battle craft Of
Spain. the Vesuyius steamed down to
join the grim ring of steel.
Wild cOnjectures filled the newspa-
pers as to the terrible damage such an
engine of war would do to the ships
of Spain and the forts that guarded the
harbor. The nation waited breathless-
ly for the test.
As trial she was finally ordered
in to hurl death and destruction into
the walls of Moro castle, on the high
bluffs.
Z When, at the close range necessary
because of the low power of the air
guns. the Vcsuvius finally 'let CO."
terrible roar came back from the
bluff. 1T shook the earth and sea with
sound and sent frightened residents of
the city scurrying in fear to caves and
cellars.
But it proved to be only sound.
When Santiago fell and examination
was possible. it was found that no
damage had been done to the old. tot
tering forts and ancient bronze guns.
The Vesuvius remained with the
fleet throughout the war doing patrol
and dispatch boat duty. But immedi-
ately after the war, in September,
1898. she was dccommissioned, never
again to be rated as a fighting ship.
Mr. Lipsitz will command the vessel
during its total destruction-for junk.
