LOVE AND SCIENCE

Quite recently the Ebell club un-
Willingly became the battle ground Of
Cupid. The occasion was lecture
by well-known U. S. G. professor or
the popular topic of "Woman."
In the course of his remarks, he
made the statement that science had
predicted that genuine blondes will
disappear in a short time. 1t was
at this moment that sweet young
thing grabbed the opportunity, as she
leaned over and whispered to her COM
panion:
did you hear what he said, dear
If you want one, you'd better speak

EXPERTS FIND CATTLE DISEASE
IN THREE PACKING PLANTS

Outbreaks of the foot and mouth
disease in three additional Los An
geles packing plants, bringing the to-
tai number under quarantine to eight
packing plants and two stockyards
were reported in statement issued
by the state department of agricul-
ture.
At the smallest of the three plants,
where 800 head of cattle were being
held, 20 head have the disease. Ex-
animation of the stock at the other
two plants was started last Sunday
and reports on the number infected
is not yet complete.
Nearly 1000 head of cattle have
been destroyed in Los Angeles DUR
ing the week in an effort to eradicate
the disease, according to the depart
ment of agriculture.

BOSTON WOOL MARKET

With the Boston market quiet, con-
tracing slackening in the west, and
foreign primary markets closing for
the season, the wool market is mark
ing time. The uncertain feature of
the situation, and the one which is
giving the most concern, is the dis
appointing demand for worsted goods
for mems wear. While the current
dullness in the goods market lasts,
the wool trade does not look for ma
terial Improvement There are indi-
cations that more orders are coming
to hand for fancy worsteds, as yarn
buyers have recently been filing spec
ifications on contracts in more sat
isfactory way than hitherto. This
movement is not yet of large volume,
but is considered valuable as an in
dication. London is holding strong,
and the same is true of the Colonial
markets, though most of these have
now been closed for the season. At
Brisbane, this week, offerings were
large, and keen competition developed
between the continent and Japan.
America and England were practical
ly out of the running on account of
the high prices. Further, the Bris-
bane woods are seldom attractive to
American buyers, but some bids were
cabled without result. Sydney, Mel
bourne, Adelaide and Perth have held
closing sales, with the exception of a
cleaning up sale at Sydney next week.
The situation is strong here, but if
the quiet demand continues indefinite
ly, it would not be strange if there
should develop some shading of prices
in order to force sales.-Bradstreet's IS

The process used by bees in making
possible high Concentration of honey
was adapted several years ago by the
Bureau Of Chesmistry, U. S. Depart
rent of Agriculture, to the manufac-
ture of sugar-cane sirup, enabling
manufacturers to concentrate their
product to a greater density without
bringing about certain disadvantages
formerly experienced. The method
consists simply in adding little in
vertase, ferment made from yeast,
which changes the sucrose in the sirup
to invert sugar which does mot crys-
tallize so readily. More recently the
same method has been applied to the
making of sorghum sirup, maple
sirup, maple cream, maple sugar, and
golden sirup, a refner's ~ product
which now can be made directly with
cut blending.
Nectar, as it is collected from flow
crs by the bees, contains sucrose
which is changed into invert sugar by
an engine or ferment peculiar to
this insect. Once the change has
been brought about the honey can be
concentrated so as to take up little

immigration Telephone Booth Over
worked With Greetings TO

When the immigrants arrive at Ellis
Island, many of them have their. first
experience with the telephone which
plays an important part in informing
relatives and friends Of the new
world arrivals. yy
Placarded with pink and white
tickets, denoting the railroad line they
are bound for, oozing strangely shaped
bundles all over their persons, with
few small, meek-faced children
trudging alongside, the typical immi-
grant family, having successfully pass
ed their examination, enters the wait
ing room ready for the fateful mo-
nent of their departure into the new
world proper. Some Of them have
never seen telephone before. 9th
,rs have rarely used them, but are
as eager as children to try. A tele-
plone booth which has stood in this
waiting room for many years is the
very first to acquaint hundreds Of
thousands of immigrants with the
service of the nationwide Bell System

Long Distance Line Now
Links Bombay And Delhi

Delhi, the capital of the Indian. EN-
pire, is now connected by long-dis-
tance telephone lines with the great
commercial port of Bombay. The ad-
vantageous position Of Bombay on the
west coast of India makes it the
nearest Indian port to Europe. It is,
indeed, formidable rival to Calcutta
IS grateway for Indian foreign trade,
and its commercial Importance makes
It the logical terminus for the long
distance telephone line to Delhi.
The present ambitious plans of the
indian Government for the construc-
ion of long-distance telephone lines
contemplate a circuit between Bonn
Jay and Calcutta, to be completed by
the end of 1924, with additional con-
aections ultimately between Delhi and
Calcutta, and between Calcutta and
Madras British India has at present,
however, only about as many tele-
phones as Atlanta, Ga. In fact, the
great Indian Empire boasts but one
telephone for every 10000 inhabitants.

bachelor Of fifty. Then, too, every
body loved him, which is very Pc
culiar thing about successful busi-
ness man with competition, you'll ad-
NIT.
This year Holcomb was very busy.
and his Christmas gifts general gifts,
you know-hadn't even occurred to
him until two days before the day.
He was passing through a new
street between restaurant and his
Office, when he saw small shop with
windows crammed with toys-nothing
but toys. At this season, nearly the
middle of the afternoon, toy shop
ought to be crowded with customers.
This shop was closed. On the steps
stood small, anxious looking man,
and big one dangling large key. It,
looked like store key.
Seemed peculiar. So Holcomb went
to the steps.
sLike to look at the toys" he began.
sCan't now," doomed the big man,
.This chap can't pay bill, SO I've
taken It. Auction day after tomorrow.
I'm sheriff"
.Meaning," said ,Holcomb, ''that If
the bill is paid, the store belongs to
this man again? How much?"
sOf course-and $780,"
whats it all worth?' to the little
man.
"About $50 If sold at auction" de-
jectedly. II picked a bum street. No
business"
"What did you pay or agree to pay9"
ss$5OO."
aWhat will you sell for?'
ssCan't sell until" nodding toward
the sheriff. M
Holcomb counted out 5000, and
passed it to the sheriff.
''Good-by," he said. "Now what do
you ask?' to the small man.
I'D rather like $500, but will be
glad to accept half that"
Holcomb counted out the $780,
"Give me the key" to the sheriff.
"Thank you. Now where can I find
two men to move the toys?'
"Tll be one" beamed the man out
of business. IT know about toys. And
/ can get another man from the next
building u
.'Do so, and I'll bring round my car
from the next corner" M ,g
Inside of an hour the shop, was
emptied and the limousine filled. Then
Holcomb took the most country Of all
the country roads, stopping at every
house that showed signs Of children.
'tHello-o," he would call to any small
boy or girl he happened to see; "got
some stuff for your house. Please take
1T in for me. I'm in hurry. Give you

He had provided pocket heavy
with loose quarters.
There were about three hours CT

the car was empty. He was glad of
the darkness. for he had to 60 back

space, will not sugar readily, and will
not sour. The manufacturers of the
various sirups and other sucrose pro-
ducts may not get practically the
same results by the use of invertase.
Makers Of sorghum sirup have al
ways had much trouble with the sug-
airing, altho' not so much as manufac-
turers of cane sirup. The new meth
cd does away with this undesirable
feature, making it possible to produce
a product which is not liable to sour
and which, though thicker than the
old-time sorghum molasses, will not
crystallize.
The making of golden sirup has
been greatly simplified, doing away
with the necessity for using granulat-
ed sugar. BY the use of invertase it
is now possible to make maple sirup
Of higher, density without danger of
sugaring. It is also possible to pro-
duce maple sugar of finer texture,
without the sandy feel and without
the tendency to become Spotted"
Maple cream by this process is made
smoother and more resistant to fer
mentation and sirup will not separate
out on standing.
A number of manufacturers are now
turning out invertase for commercial
use.

q
Throughout the eastern wheat re-
gions there has been a very severe
outbreak of the Angoumois grain
moth during the last four years.
Special Investigation of the pest has
been conducted for two years by the
Bureau of Entomology Of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
New facts concerning its biology have
been developed. The, infestation of
wheat in the field at the time of crop
maturity has been found to be much
greater than was formerly believed.
The Importance of prompt harvesting
and threshing is consequently empha-
sized. During 1922 it was found that
in a badly infested region Angoumois
grain-moth infestation was reduced to
less than 2 epr cent by prompt har-
vesting, threshing, and storage,
whereas on neighboring farms when
threshing was greatly delayed infesta-
tion ran as high as 80 to 80 per cent.

A new protection against clothes
moths has been found by the Bureau
Of Entomology Of the U. S Depart
ment of Agriculture in the form of
Observation-Disclosures, the chemical us
ed in large quantities in the peach
growing districts in the control Of the
peach borer. 1t has been established
beyond question that napthalene and
paradichlorobenzene are, among the
most dependable substances that can
he used in tight containers for protec-
tion against all stages of the clothes
moth.
Red-cedar chests can be depended
on when only very young clothes
moth larvae are present at the time
the fabric is placed in the chest. When
properly prepared according to recon-
mendations of the department, as fre-
quently issued ins bulletin and, other
printed form, clothing can be safe
guarded in red-cedar chests. Chests
Of Eucalyptus and closets lined with
red-cedar wood and in constant use
are of no value as protectors against
fabric pests. The best protection con-
sists in putting clothes away absolute
ly clean and without eggs or larvae
on them, in tightly sealed containers,
which may or may not be impregnat-
ed with such repellents as oil of red
cedar and camphor. These two oils
have decided value for this purpose,
but oil of Eucalyptus and oil Of pine
are Of little or no value. Napthalene
faeks or balls, or observation-disclosures
as indicated above, provide additional
safety when packed with fabrics or
furs in tight containers.
