so Per Cent Slump Re-
veaIed in Comparison of
1930-31 Figures.

By scripps-Ho,oard Newspaper AlIionce
WASHINGTON, July 10.-Either
flying is getter safer, or else fewer
people are wearing parachutes with
which to Jump out of airplanes.
Because, in the first six months of
this year, there were thirty-one less
emergency parachute jumps than in
the first half of 1880.
Last year (first half sixty-fve
persons saved their lives by aban-
doning their disabled planes in mid
air, and coming down in their silken
parachutes. This year Cfirst half)
the number was only thirty -four.
1T is gratifying to note" says
the Army Air Corps News Letter,
that so far this year there has been
terrible slump in Caterpillar Club,
Common"
At present no figures are avail
able as to the total flying time for
this year. so that it is difficult to
arrive at conclusion as to the
cause for the much wished-for
slump.
However, as far as military avi-
alton IS concerned, more flying was
done the first half of this year than
the year before, and the same
probably Is true of commercial avi-
alton. SO it would seem that fly
ing is growing safer.
There are now 371 members of
the famous mythical Caterpillar
Club, and those members have made
386 jumps, fifteen being repeaters.
Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh is
still monarch" Of the Caterpillars,

Although fertilizers have gen.
orally been considered complete
with only the principal plant food
elements, nitrogen, phosphorus, and
potash, the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture has found that
many of the less common elements
heretofore considered nonessential
or present in the soil in sufficient
quantities may deserve a place in
the fertilizer bag.
Deficient In Elements.
In large areas in the United
States some of the soils are def
cient in manganese, sulphur, iron
magnesium, and chlorine. Expert
ments in the greenhouses have
shown beneficial plant-growth re-
sponses to applications of copper,
boron, iodine, zinc, arsenic, barium,
nickel, and other less common ele-
ments.

regions of Florida, where truck

ganese and have been made highly
productive by application of about
so pounds of manganese sulphate
an acre. Within the last two years
this new fertilizer has come into
general use. 1t has been credited
in some cases with improving the
yield of tomatoes by 175 to 45O
crates an acre, the yield Of beans
by 81 tons an acre, the yield of
cabbage by 42,107 pounds an acre.
and the yield of potatoes by $50
bushels an acre. 1t has trebled and
quadrupled the size of carrots and
beets and doubled the size of cauli-
flower.
Chlorine Helps.
On light sandy soils in some TO-
bacco-growing regions an applica-
tion of 20 to 80 pounds of chlorine
per acre, in the form of muriate of
potash, improves the yield, quality.
and drought resistance of the crop.
A large proportion of the light
sandy tobacco soils are deficient in
magnesium and at least 10 to 90
pounds per acre of this element
may be included in the fertilizer If
a normal crop is to be obtained.
Magnesium deficiency produces
characteristic symptoms in the
plant and the condition is popular
ly known as sand drown.

Use Formalin Solution
to Cure Cattle Bloat

Boating in cattle, when reached
in tirhe, can often be relieved by
drenching the animal with a solu-
ton of half an ounce of formalin
in quart of water. After the
animal has recovered a second
drench composed of pound of
EPSON salts and half an ounce of
ginger in a pint of tepid water
should be administered. This
treatment is being used with
marked success in the Kentucky
experiment stations herd.
When, in the spring, cattle are
first turned on clover or other
green feed, the change should be
gradual. This is best accomplished
by having the cattle Craze for 20
to 30 minutes the first day on pas
ture, and increase this period each
day until the digestive organs be-
come accustomed to the green, sue
culent feed.
During the early weeks of spring,
cattle should not remain In the
pasture overnight nor be turned on
pasture while dew or frost is on
the grass. An excellent practice
is TO feed cattle little hay or 9th
er dry feed before turning them on
pasture. Watchfulness during a
week or two of early spring will
prevent many cases of bloat.

NEW INSTRUMENT MEASURES WITHIN 100000 OF AN INCH

tance between these spots accu-
rate within four hundred-thou-
sandths of an inch. The instru-
ment is so ruggedly constructed
and so easy to operate that such
accuracy is reached in routine
measurements.
One application of this long dis
tahoe measuring is the finding of
the exact size of a piece of casting
which has just been poured from
molten metal and before it has
cooled enough to be touched.
If the optical guage is fitted with
a periscope system, measurements
can be made far in the interior of
hollow castings where it would be
impossible or very difficult to take
mechanical measuring instru-
ment.
Even the thickness of a coat of
paint can readily be found with
the new optical guage. The diam
eter of a precision grinding wheel
or lathe can also be accurately de-
termined without stopping the ma
chine.

What should women do to keep

cial study of bowel troubles.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is
made from fresh, laxative herbs,

habit or diet are necessary while
taking it. But it's action is thor

FRANCE HOARDS COLD; SEES WAR

The French financiers and econ
mists see the danger to French COM
merce in gold hoadring. They
are urging their government to put
the gold into circulation by issu-
ing gold currency. The French Off
cials explain that conditions would
be worse. The gold currency would
simply go into the stockings of the
French peasants. They say that
1t is safer in the vaults Of the
Bank of France.
According to report issued by
the Bank of France three months
ago there were 79,0O0,0O0,000 paper
notes In circulation. Since then
5,000,000.0O0 notes were added to
the staggering figure.
The boarding of gold and infia-
tion have increased the cost of liv-
ing in France. 1t is going up every
day. Economists are expecting
crisis on this account.
The French government has so
far denied that there is serious un-
employment in France. The other
day it admitted that there were
10000 unemployed. Experts say the
correct figure is nearer 100000.
JobIess Ignored.
France, unlike England, has no
machinery to enumerate her unem-
ployed. Unlike England and Ger
many, she has no social legislation,
such as unemployment insurance or
old age pensions. She is able to
ignore the unemployed. All over
France there are thousands of un-
employed in cities, towns and viii
lagos who are being looked after To-
cally. Unemployment is spreading.
The French government is disin-
clined to take advice from the
financiers and economists. To
France today, the officials feel, her
gold reserve is like big Berthas." I"
No matter how optimistic her
statesmen might wish to view the
situation, France is preparing for
an attack from MussOlini. Lately
she has been feeling that before
many years she might have to fight
Mussolini-Hittler combination.
Looking back at her past expert
ences, France feels, her officials
will tell you unofficially, that in the
coming struggle the nation with
the gold reserve will dominate the
battlefield; that the poverty-strick-
en- Mussolini regime will not be
able to receive outside supplies,
while France with her staggering
pile of gold will be able to crush
her enemies.
That probably is the truth behind
Frances present mania of gold
boarding.

Cinchona, Source of Qui-
nine, Has Given 300 Years
of Service to Man.

Washington. - Cinchona, source
of quinine, whose 300 years of
service to civilized man was re-
Gently celebrated, has probably
done more than any other tree to
change the map of the world, ac-
cording to a bulletin from the Ma
tional Geographic society.
"The bark of this once unknown
tree that grew wild in the forests
of South America has made habita-
BILE to white men thousands of trop-
ical areas that formerly were
death traps" says the bulletin.
"The powerful enemy that Gin
chona fights so successfully Is
malaria. Before the discovery of
cinchona and its action, little could
be done to combat 'ague,' marsh
fever and jungle fever as ma
laria was called. II attacked tens
of millions of persons in the trop-
les and the warmer and moist re-
gions of the temperate zones, and
caused millions of deaths. 1t is
believed by some historians that
malaria, nurtured in the marshes
of the Campagna, had an impor-
tant part In bringing about the fall
of Rome.
"In Greece, too, this energy sap
ping disease is supposed to have
played an insidious role; and
there are some who explain the
passing of the mysterious Maya
civilization of Central America as
a surrender to the Joint attacks
of malaria and yellow fever.
Malaria Dangerous Enemy.
"It was when the white men
began to live in the tropical coun-
tries that they came to realize that
malaria (or the various aliases un-
der which is passed. was an ex-
ceedingly dangerous enemy. Many
of the early cOlonists in Mexico,
Central and South America, India
and the East Indies died of the
disease. And then the tropics at
least partially squared their debt
by furnishing the one drug so far
discovered that can successfully
combat malaria.
"The cinchona tree was first
found growing wild in forests on
the mountain slopes of Colombia,
Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia. Tradi-
tion has it that the value of the
bark in treating malarial fever was
first discovered when some fever
stricken Indians drank from
pool into which a cinchona tree
had fallen; and were cured.
Medicine made from cinchona
bark was first used in treating
white sufferers from fever in north
ern Peru (now Ecuador) about
1880. After it saved the life of the
Countess of Chinchon, wife of the
viceroy of Peru, in 1858 it's fame
grew rapidly. 1t is to this happy
cure that the tree owes its name,
for In honor of the countess. Lin
naeus named it inchona, inadver-
tantly dropping the first h
