HERED|7Y
 CLOSELY STUDIED
Scientists Hope Researches Will
 Lead to Super-BreedS

BcltsVille, Md, Dec. 10. [P}- A law of heredity that explains why parents of brown-eyed child bo.h may have blue eyes is being tested for practical values by a scientist of the department of agriculture
 Gregor Mcndel. a monk. based the law that bears his name ou eight years of experimentation with garden peas: Dr. Morley A. Jul. f, ,deral poultry husbandman, is car rying on research in the animal kingdom with chickens
 A completed portion of the prof. cct proves the validity of the fun d&mental principles observed by Mcndcl, that in cross breeding there are certain characters which are dominant and others rucesSiv2,
 Dr, Jul demonstrated the mech anlsm of the law by crossing white and black bantams. All Of the first generation were black but, when mated among themselves. one-quar- ter of the second generation were white.
 White is the rcCessive character which will not appear if the ind-

 The remailing portion of the project, which amounts to d quest for super breeds" must progress for several years before results Wtl b" evident, Dr, Jul said.
 His main plan is to determine the inheritance of egg production, white leShOrnS and Rhode island Reds having been crossed for five years. There are three allied studies or size in eggs, of shape in eggs, and of size in fody weight.
 Bantams and barred Plymouth Rocks have been crossed for new facts on body size; white leghorns and silver pencil Plymouth Rocks are mated in he study of egg shape. and barred Plymouth Rocks and White Leghorns are crossed in re- search on egg size.

Government Recipe for
Yeast-Raised Douqhnuta

For q good many people, doughnuts
alike mother used to make" are al
ways yeast-raised doughnuts, which
have a somewhat different texture
from those made with baking powder.
AS in making any yeast breads or
cakes, several hours must be allowed
between the first mixing and each of
the two rising periods. The recipe is
from the bureau of home economics.
cup scalded milk yeast cake
egg Y to cups stfted
l Il tsp. salt soft wheat -four
y cup sugar y tsp. nutmeg
tbs. butter
Scald the milk, add the butter, and
when lukewarm add the yeast and
sugar. Stir in one ard One-half cup
fuls flour. Allow the sponge to stand
in warm place until very light. Add
the beaten egg and the rest of the
flour, which has been sifted with the
salt and nutmeg. Knead, until thor
oughly mixed. The dough should be
softer than bread dough. Cover and
set in a warm place to rise. When
light, roll from one-half to three-quar-
tiers inch thick on lightly Toured
board, cut with a doughnut cutter,
cover, and set in warm place until
almost double in bulk.
Heat the fat in heavy kettle to
the temperature between $50 degrees
Fahrenheit to $40 degrees Fahrenheit.
Put in the doughnuts with the raised
side of the doughnut down in the fat,
and turn when brown on the under
side. These doughnuts should be
cooked through in three or four min
utes. Drain on absorbent paper and
sprinkle with powdered sugar while
hot.

New Digestant Found
in Sap of the Papaya

Miami, Fla.-Dr. j. Peterson, we'll
known Miami horticulturist, who has
been experimenting with tropical
plants for the last Is years, con-
temporary with other scientists of
tropical research, has just disclosed
a vast store of knowledge on the
papaya as a remedy for stomach
troubles.
Through experimentation it has
been found that papain, the white
milky sap of the papaya, has the
same effect upon the stomach as does
pepsin, but with greater efficiency and
quicker results Tests have revealed
that a drop of dry papain will dis
solve square inch piece of steak in
two minutes.
The discovery of papaya was synon-
ymous with the discovery of Central
America, its native soil, hundreds of
years ago. Coast pirates used it for
food, but upon the humiliation of the
pirates the papaya was forgotten.
Forty years ago it was rediscovered
and during the last few years has
made great strides in the health food
markets. Today it's demand is so
great in local sections that little of ii
has been shipped North. 1t can be
prepared in so many ways that each
preparation will have distinct taste
like cherry, peach, apple, plum or
rhubarb pie. Likewise 1t is made in
to jellies, candy, salads, fruit cock.
tails, and preserves.

Buttered Spring Onions
on Toast Are Welcomed

Variety in vegetables seems to be
more universally desired than Is the
case with any other group of foods.
We can eat an orange every morning,
and bread with every meal, potatoes
almost every day, and the reappear-
ing meat roast as long as it lasts, if
only the vegetables are varied and
combined in different ways. One of
the joys of the spring months is that
they bring to most of us few more
changes in the vegetable part of our
menu. Even our winter friend, the
onion, arrives in such different dress
that we welcome it as practically an
other vegetable in the springtime,
from the large round onion we knew
in the winter. Here's suggestion
from the bureau of home economics
for serving spring onions in dainty
and appetfzing way:
Allow six or seven finger-sized
onions for each serving.
After trimming the green tops from
the onions, cook them until tender in
lightly sailed boiling water, in an I'M
covered vessel. This will take only
about 20 minutes for fresh, young
onions. When they have cooked ten.
der, drain, add more salt If needed.
and season with melted butter. In
the meantime toast slices of bread.
Arrange the onions as you would as.
paragus Oh the toast. and serve.

OTHER CHAPS RIGHT
TO GIRL. OBSERVED
Fist Fights in Gotham Clubs
Enforce Code.

New York.-Broadway has a strict
etiquette at times, one unwritten rule
of which is:
Let the other fellows girl alone.
Like most rules it is often disre-
garded, usually by those who have yet
to learn it. They soon are educated,
however. The offended party sees to
that.
Stories are not uncommon Of fist
fights in night clubs over attentions
paid some girl. The object of attrac-
ton may not have minded. but her
escort did. One incident happened
where the rebuking party was club
man known widely for his athletic
ability. A convivial stranger at the
next table made an intimate If in
nocuous remark to the sportsman's
friend which brought single, belliger-
ent question.
"Do you want to walk out, or be
carried out?" he was asked. He chose
to walk.
Violation Has Advantages.
There is one man-about-B Broadway,
however, who regrets recent appll-
cation of the hands-off rule, sup
posedly in his favor. He was invited
to an after-theater party only to find
himself paired with girl who was
pretty but exceedingly dull. He was
very affable, therefore, when another
man came up and engaged the dumb
beauty in conversation. AS soon as
he could, he disappeared, hoping he
was rid of her.
When he returned some time later,
however, the other man was missing.
"What happened to that nice chap
who was here awhile ago?" he asked
"Oh, took care of that egg," said
the well-meaning host. "He was try.
ing to take Mary away from you, Sc
told him to get out and stay out"
"That's too bad" murmured the
guest weakly. "He seemed tc be O
fine fellow. 1 liked him."
5au Company Bobs Up.
But now and then the rule is I'M
enforced, as it was not long ago wher
a suave stranger started a restau
rant filtration that almost proved dis
astrous for the girl. A smile led tt
an exchange of telephone numbers
and soon the couple were going places
together. She became quite fond Of
him until her romance was suddenly
shattered by newspaper story that
her "broker" friend had been arrested
as q racketeer.
After recovering from the shock
she kept herself in seclusion until
the story was forgotten. Now she is
back in the old haunts, but she is I'M
approachable by any one but her best
friends.
