New Worthwhile writers of mys-

methods, DR.. F. X. Richtmyer of Cor

tory have been borrowing detective
methods for scientific research in the
last year. They have been engaged by
the National Research council to solve
one of the important problems Of sci
ence. 1t is essentially a detective job,
requiring the most delicate kind Of
trailing, spying, spotting and inside
work.
The mere statement of the mystery
does not suggest false whiskers,
marked bills and the dlctaphone. The
problem is simply "Why have flowers
%color?"
Until recently it was assumed, on
orthodox Darwinian lines, that flowers
had developed colors to attract pol
lenating insects whose visits were nee
essary for the manufacture of seeds.
But recently this theory has been chal-
lenged. Experiments have indicated
that insects may be color-blind. Some
apparently cannot see red. Why should
flowers be red if bees, moths and other
p%Ollenating insects canno see red?
Why should they display other hues,
brilliant tn tile human eye but appar-
emily invisible to insects?
Blind to Some colors.
Other experiments indicated that if
the bee, the moth and the fly are blind
to some colors that we see they can
see other colors invisible to us. They
al see or in some way detect ultra
violet light, which is mere blackness
to human beings. SO it became i'm
portant TO learn how ultraviolet cOlors
attract insects.
Doctor Richtmyer, a physicist of Cor
nell, and Doctor Lutz, an entomologist
of the American Museum of Natural
History, were chosen to work out the
fine detective devices needed for sleuth-
ing among insects and flowers.
The investigators were put on the
case to discover whether flower colors,
visible and invisible, are efficient In
attracting insects.
A years work on this difficult case
has produced a good deal of informa-
ton. Doctor R%ichtmyer has found flow
ers which reflect no ultraviolet color
at all, others which reflect 1t richly,
others which reflect it in varying pro
portions and some which reflect ii
strongly from some parts of their sur
face and not at all from other parts.
The next step is to discover whether
a bee shows a preference for flowers
which are strong in ultraviolet color

During the sum- msr, when the stumps are thoroughly dry, drill 1a-in. hole, about 3 or 4 in. deep, in the center of the stump. as indi- cated. Into this hole put tablespoonfuh of saltpeter; then close the hole, with decayed wood and dirt During the fol- lowing summer, dig cut the dirt, fill the hole with kerosene, and set the stump OF fire. It will burn slowly but surely. and will keep on burning under the ground until every piece of root is con- sumed. The action of the saltpeter makes a slow-burning match of the fibers of the roots and carries tue fire wherever it has penetrated. This method eliminates the possibility of roots being left in the ground to catch on plowshares.

0DIC RAY MAY
 BALk GRAVITY

PASADENA, June & Graylta- ton will be revolutienized by the 0dic ray. believes Edgar l.. Hollings- head, inventor and investigator in the field of electricity. who says that his twenty years of experiment have eliminated in the discovery that eolids in the path of this ray arc not subject to the pull of gravity.
 MT. HolliEsshcad declares that the 0dic ray discovered by him effects a change in the direction of theA min lte whdrls of ether within any solid npon which it is focused, with the regult that gravity cannot take hold"
 The theory upon which MT. Hol- iingsaead works, briefly stated. is his:
 It Is impossible to conceive of a force except as something that is moving If it is something moving il must be a substance in some form, and if il is substance it must be government by the same principles
 nat control all substance or matter n the universe It must be made np Of an aggregation of eddies, sim liar to those in the field of a mag net. Further. there must be two polarities to each force. If this were not true there would be an unbalanced condition in nature.
 Therefore the force of gravity must have its opposite polarity-a ropelling instead of attractive force.
 Thus I reasoned" Mir Hollings- head explains. and since have prov en it true, and if I increase the speed of the eddies of force-compos- ing matter I would set up a re- sistance to the force of gravitation, force travelling in the direction opposite to gravitation.
 My next problem was to find a way of releasing a force sufficiently powerful to affect the speed of mat ter. This I have accomplished by regarding the amperage Of electric ity as a substance having a definite energy and by developing a process by which a portion of the energy of the amperage. or substance part of electricity, can be released
 Tn my experimenting have changed tho speed of this released energy from that of ray wich af- fleets the photographic plate as ordi- nary light, to one with power in stantly disintegrating any solid sub- stance within its scope of radiation"
