"FoIIing Stars"

So-called falling stars, otherwise
known as shooting stars" are minute
planetary bodies raised to incandes-
motion by the earth's atmosphere.
Over hundred millions, including
those telescopically visible, are estl-
mated to be swept up daily by our
planet, yet with no sensible increase
of its mass, the vast majority of these
cosmic particles weighing probably
only a small fraction of an ounce.
They fall about twice as thickly in the
morning as in the evening hours. be-

Utility of Yucca Tree

The yucca tree, which is indigenous
to the deserts of Arizona and New
Mexico, is very useful TO man. 1t
bears no leaves, but each one of its
branches terminates in a knob from
which springs a huge bunch of long
bristle-like spines. One of the most de-
lightful of toilet soaps is made from
the spinous punches, which are boiled
to extract saponaceous substances
This species of yucca has long been
known TO Indians as the "soap tree"
When they want TO wash themselves,
or their garments, they simply take a
piece of the yucca to the nearest con
venient water and rub 1t with their
hands, thus obtaining an Immediate
and profuse lather. The bristly
punches make very superior cattle
