CATTLE EAT DEADtF0R
PHOSPHORUS THEY CRAVE
Element Lacking in Regular Food
IN South African Districts.

New York.-Cattle so crave a Ger
tain substance which is lacking from
their food in some districts in South
Africa that they eagerly search for
the bodies Of dead animals and greed
lily devour their bones, even though the
mesh still clings to the skeletons and
even though the dead animal be one
Of their own mates Such 10 the state
ment Of DR.. 81. a. Green Of the dfvi-
sion Of veterinary research at Pretoria,
South Africa, In recent report on this
strange condition made to the Ameri-
can Society of Biological Chemists.
Osteophagia, as this bone eating
habit of the cattle is termed, results
directly from a lack of efficient phos-
phorus in the food adequately to sup
ply the body; the low content Of this
element In the food tcan be traced to
the very small amount of 1t In the soil.
The animals have learned that bones
are very rich source of the substance
they crave since the skeleton is made
up almost entirely of calcium phos-
plate and they satisfy their desire for
phosphates just as many animals
crafty their appetite for salt at salt
licks.
Acnte osteophagia occurs in almost
all the animals in certain regions for
about ten months in the year, accord
ing 10 Doctor Green, and only abates
for about two months while the grass
is very young. This disease can be
prevented, experiments proved, by the
use Of phosphate manuring In the soil
or by the administration of phosphate
to the animals affected, but In the lat
ter case Ii reappears again when this
substance is removed from the diet.
According to this scientist. osteopha-
gia b itself does not usually result
fatally. although 1t may affect the
growth Of young cattle or lessen the
production of milk in cows, results
which are also attributable to the low
phosphate content Of the food It's

that it is indirectly the cause of

BRITISH SCIENTIST SEES
RADIO CONTROL OF WORLD
Tells OF Directing Transportation
by Use of Wireless.

London.-Under the heading, "Com-
ing Of the Wireless Age" a British
scientist contributes a striking article
to London newspaper, In which he
predicts that wireless will be used In
the near future for directing ships at
sea, train and trolley services, traffic
control on the road, fleets of battle
ships and aircraft.
sIf will be possible" he says. "to
direct the path OF everything moving
on the surface of the earth. not even
excepting human beings. by means Of
wireless"
The initial step in Harvesting this
potent and little-known force was the
establishment some weeks ago Of q
wireless lighthouse on Inchkeith
island. In the Firth Of Forth. BY
means OF this lighthouse" ships cab
be directed through the dangerous
channels Of the Firth By wireless, so
there 10 no possibility OF their running
ashore or being wrecked even on the
darkest night or In the densesE fogA
Steps are being taken in conJunc-
ton with the British board of trade
and the meteorological Office. to inter-
nationalist wireless direction of ships
at sen. At the. present moment there
Ia lying IN the port Of London a ship
that has been specially fitted with
powerful wireless receiving sets to
give demonstrations Of this new
method OF navigation in all the prin-
eipal ports OF the world.
Setting out from London. this mis-
s1onary ship viii sail for China, VIA
fhe Mediterranean, Indian ocean and
tAe Straits, and thence on to North
and South America, and back across
the Atlantic to Europe and, South
Africa. giving demonstrations at every
big port en- route.
The most ambitious effort. however,
will be a cross Atlantic airplane flight
which Is to be made late in the sum-
fner. The machine will carry both
pilot and observer. but their attentions
win be confined to the actual flying
Mde.
Setting out from Newfoundland, for
the first 900 miles of its flight the air
plane will be directed by the Glace
bay wireless station. Then 1t will be
picked up and navigated by wireless
'1ightship," cruising in mid-ocean, to
point where control win be trans
mitted to Qngar. the big operating sta
don In thiScountry.
The whole 1000 miles Of flight will
be directed by wireless.

Lonely Islanders Look
in Doubt at Wireless

st. Kilde. Outer Hebrides.--Although
cut off from civilization since last Au-
gust for no steamer Is able to fight
its way through the storm and fog
during the autumn and winter months,
rs lonely inhabitants of this island
look askance at the telegraph and will
not use the wireless station which
was built here during the war by the
British.
Recently steamer sailed from the
island Of Lewis, the largest and most
northeriy of the Hebrides group, and
thus broke st Kilda's nine months
solitude by bringing 1t mails, pro-
visions and other necessaries.
During their isolated months the
islanders send their letters to Lewis
m tin canisters In sheepskin buoys
They launch these when there is a
gale of northwest wind. Sometimes
the buoys get blown out Of their
course and take the letters thousands
Of miles. but very often they cross the
sixty-mile stretch Of sea to Lewis
island safely and are then posted
from that place.

Russ Import Camels
to Replace Horses

New York.-Peasant In the Samara
district of Russia are importing camels
to take the place of horses In the regu-
lar farm work, according TO recent
report received at the headquarters Of
the American Relief administration
from r. H. Allen. district supervisor
in Samara.
1.-THE camels." says Mr.. Allen, are
desired by the Beasants because they
will eat anything and thrive on It, The
Samara peasant uses his COW also for
draft purposes, but by incorrect ham
ding ruins her for milking and breed
ing purposes.
In discussing the harvesting pros
poets for the summer, Mr.. Allen says
"A factor of even more immediate inn
portance than the draft problem, In
connection with the harvest, is the
locust.
"At the present time the vast sur
faces of uncultivated grass grown land
allow locusts IAN excellent breeding
place. They do not touch rye, which
is sown in the early fall and nearly
mature when they incubate, but they
attack the tender grass shoots of the
wheat. A return to larger cultivated
area will gradually eliminate this pest,
which is wingless and less active than
the American grasshopper."

London.-The hope that those In
search Of the fountain of youth would
find It In an African monkey colony
was expressed by DR.. Serge Vorohoff,
director Of the experimental labora-
tory Of the College of France, known
for decade for bis work with gland

He told nearly 1000 eminent physi-
clans and surgeons from all over the

congress OF the international Surgical
society how the Pasteur institute had
constructed an immense park In
Africa, where 1t would breed chimpan-
ices whose glands, he asserted, were
valuable in reJuvenating human be-
ings.
He said that while African apes
we're SO difficult to obtain grating
operations necessarily would have to
be limited, but he believed that the
colony would place the elixir Of youth
within the reach Of every one.
The conference also discussed the
notable strides made last year toward

pneumonia, paralysis, rheumatism and
even insanity. but in spite OF ali these
remarkable advances Sir william Mac
Evan, president of the congress. re-
marked regretfuily:
Regarding nature as whole, We
are still in the deepest darkness"
He asked If there was not within
every one mystery which never has
been fathomed. ~
IF we pursue our quest with a
single purpose In search Of truth for

"a SELLERS STRIKE"

Kansas wheat growers talking of sellers
strike" and the movement inspired by falling prices
promises to spread to neghboring states The point of
view of the producers is easy to and by means
hard to sympathze with. They know what buyers
strikes have accomplished time and again, and it is
not unnatural that they should hope by this to
improve unfortunate situation.
But is this the time for such an experiment?
Last year Canada had 396 million bushels of
wheat and the size of the cropit the largest the
Dominion had ever harvested-led to an attempted
sellers strike The farmers who joined in it held
back 25 million bushels of wheat in the effort to
strengthen the market They have that 25 million
bushels of old wheat now, and Canada has 500 million
bushels of wheat ready for the market. More
over the International Institute of Agriculture reports
increase of 124 million bushels in European and
North African production while India has the biggest
crop in years and will have big crop for export

steady shrinkage in wholesale lines-buildng mater

TAXPAYERS TO

Field Committee Will Be-

LOS ANGELES, July 31.-Hear-
ings of appeals from income tax

that three cases will he heard daily.
The session of the board will ex-
tend up to the latter part of Sep
tember and cases pending from
Utah, Nevada, Arizona and Cali
fornia will be heard.
Taxpayers are urged by Chairman
Service to have their cases ready
to present to the board. Only cases
which have been submitted to the
income tax unit at Washington, and
from whose decision the taxpayer
has appealed, will be heard. How
ever, taxpayers may, upon request
to Commissioner Blair, have cases
which they have ,submitted tt
Washington transferred to the
board which will hold hearings here
The committee on appeals and re
view to sit here is a body ihdepen

was created by Commissioner Blai
subordinate directly to him to con
slider appeals from the income ta'
unit. When the decisions of th'
board are submitted to the commits

Of appeals anc review is an cxpe
riment and whether the practice will
be continued depends upon the sue
cess of the experiment, Collector
Ctoodcell stated. 1t means that the
Internal Revenue bureau is going
out into the country to meet the
taxpayers, instead of the taxpayers
having to go to Washington at
great expense. 1t also means that
many taxpayers, where S ma
amounts are involved and who can
not afford to 90 to Washington

Chairman Service emphasized the
fact that all hearings he conducts

Goodcell s office and in the bureau

sidered upon appeals must have
been previously submitted to the
