Editor Kennebec Journal,
Augusta. Maine.
Dear Sir:AThis city is alive with
elm tree beetles. They are not con-
tent merely to eat the new leaves, but
,are cutting off the young shoots as
with scythe. Look under any of tho
trees and see the result of their
slaughter.
More: under the loose bark of the
elm trees we are finding great punches
of gypsy moth eggs, in some cases as
large as half a walnut, ready for the
natural change to produce the de-
structive caterpillar" then, in time,
other moths to lay other eggs, infin-
iteSimal in number.
Unless something heroic is done.
and done quickly. we shall see these
wonderful trees. which make our city
so beautiful. denuded and killed be-
fore our very eyes.
Very truly yours.

Editorial Comment
Brodiun
(Public Ledger)

The human mind seeks eternally for
simple solution of the mystery of
life. Why we should be so certain
that the formula is simple is difficult
to explain. That the form of energy
we know as life may be the result
tant Of a million interacting factors
and, elements is just as possible. But
the mind of man refuses to accept 1t.
Dr. William Teg. director of the Bio
logical Research Institute, believes,
IL lie has not been misrepresented
that all plant and animal life has a
simple cause in the emanations Of
the radioactive element brodium
The theory is interesting, though as
brodium emanations are @"every-
where" it may be hard to prove.
