BALTIMORE, May 22-Oliver
Wendell Holmes advice to "adver-
tise for e couple Of parents both be-
longing to long-nved families" in
order to live to a ripe old age has
been tested actuarially by Or. Ray
nond Pearl and his associates in the
department Of biology Of the school
of hygiene and public health Of
Johns Hopkins university here.
He finds that longevity is in
aerited and that there are scien-
tiflc grounds for the widely preva-
lent idea that length of days tends
TO run in families. Preliminary re-
suits of his extensive studies Of the
Inheritance of longevity are re-
ported in the current issue Of HUI
nan Biology.
Use Insurance Methods
Thousands Of family history rec
5rds collected by DR.. Pearls depart
ment were used in the investigation.
Using methods by which life in
surance companies determine the
life tables upon which they base
their rates, DR.. Pearl reports, 'that
the expectation Of life Of sons Of
fathers dying or living at so or over
years Of age, is greater at ali ages
from birth on, than the expectation
of life Of sons Of fathers dying at
ages between so and 70 years in
elusive, and is still greater than the
expectation Of life Of sons of fathers
dying under so years Of age"
In order to establish still more
soundly the conclusions, DR.. Pearl
also studied the expectation of life
OF parents Of long-lived sons and
daughters in comparison with the
expectation Of life of parents Of
short-lived sons and daughters.
Many other similar actuarial COM
parsons were made.
10000 Records Studied
Parents Of children dying at 50
years or over live longer by 7 to %
per cent, than parents of children
who die under so years Of age.
Grandparents whose children live to
more than so years of age them
selves by the life tables have life
times Z to So per cent longer than
the grandparents with shorter lived
children.
More than half a. million years Of
life were contained in the records
upon which the studies we're based.
Extensive pedigrees of more than
100000 members of white Baltimore
families were available for the
study, each record OF which was
obtained by trained field worker.

WHEN WINTER COMES

IS YOUR house packed to the caves with tremend- ous stores of flour |. meat clothing and other supplies to carry you through the long winter?
 Not very likely!
 But if not, won't you-like the butterfly that played all summer without thought of the cold days to come-wont you be in danger of facing famine, months before spring comes around again?
 Certainly not!
 When wintry winds are blowing their coldest, and the storm is wailing like forgotten banshees on the rooftop, the chances you may be eating juicy strawberries from Costa Rica and fresh asparagus from Florida. For the day of storing up supplies against the barrenness of winter has gone forever It has passed when America ceased to be lot of scattered communities and became nation united by swift line of transportation.
 As you read the advertisements telling you just what the stores contain for you fresh to your order remember that here are the inexhautible store rooms of today storerooms that have banished forever the anxieties that went with the snows of yesteryear.

Complaint has been received by the Delegate that one of the north ern mail carriers has omitted one or two prescribed trips and that he further states that he can omit any trip he cares to providing he asks no pay for them. The matter was taken up with the Second As siStant Postmaster General, whose statement may be interesting to all mail carriers. He says: Twice a month service is authorized be- tween these two points, and the carrier is not permitted to omit any trips, except such as may be i'm practicable because of severe Wea- ther or difficult travel conditions. If all service on this route was not performed such action as may be necessary will be taken to correct any irregularities, after investiga- tion by our supervisor of the Alaska service at Seattle"

 Although Ketchikan and Anchor age are included iii the public building program of Congress and $400,000 has been "allocated" for each building in the respective towns, there is some danger that the money necessary for the con- struction of these buildings may not be appropriated by the coming session of Congress. An inter-de- partmental committee makes the recommendation for construction appropriations and this committee consists of Perry K. Heath, assist ant Secretary of the Treasury; J. fl. Wetmore, acting Supervising Archltect; Leo c. Martin, special assistant to assistant Secretary Heath; John W. Philip, fourth as- SlStant Postmaster General. Dele- gate Wickersham has urged the necessary appropriation and early construction of the public buildings at Anchorage and Ketchikan be- fore different members of the com mittee, and in addition on Nevem- Der ,, addressed a letter to the com mittee, saying among other things: There long has been and there is now very decided need for these public buildings at Anchorage and ketchikan. Public officials have repeatedly set forth the necessity for early construction of these two buildings. The commercial bodies of ketchikan and Anchorage are

MINNESOTA LEADS u. S.
IN BARLEY PRODUCTION

Minnesota now ranks far ahead of
any other state in the production of
barley, growing one-sixth of the en-
tire United States output of this
crop, says new bulletin BARLEY in
Minnesota" published by the Agri-
cultural Extension Division of the
University of Minnesota.
The acreage of the barley crop in
Minnesota has practically doubled in
the last years and now amounts to
nearly 2.5 millions acres, with a
total harvest in 1929 of 59,40O,O00
bushels. The authors of the bulletin,
F. j. Stevenson, R. o. Bridgford and
r. F. Grim Of the Minnesota Agricul-
tural Experiment Station, attribute
this tremendous increase to grow
ing appreciation of, the value of bar
ley as a feed crop, and the introduce
ton of adapted smooth-awned varie-
ties.
Complete descriptions of these
varieties and their adaptation to diff
ferent parts of the state are included
in the bulletin.
Other interesting topics taken up
include the uses and products of bar
ley, sources of seed, barley diseases
and their control, the time and rate
of seeding and other; points of vital
interest of farmers. Copies may be

ble as she was. When they left the table he went out on the sun porch and presently Gypsy followed. Jim was sitting in the swing smoking. Night had not fallen yet but all about was gray twilight. The tip of his cigaret glowed red in the dusk. Gypsy sat down be- side him.
 She hesitated, wondering how to begin. "Jim," she said after q few moments, q don't believe you're feeling very we'll lately. Is 1t be- cause you've been working too hard ?"
 Nothing wrong with me-" "But I'm sure there is. I can see it. Is it anything you're worried about?'
 "Must be your imagination" Jim answered. I'm all right.' l But you do look worried seo much of the time. If there's any thing gone wrong l wish you'dytell inc about it. Maybe 1t would help There's nothing to tell,' he said. and that ended the discussion. | Presently she tried again. This time she did so openly. You know,'' she said slowly. "one time you asked me if I'd ever regretted our marriage. Do you remember?"
 It was too dark for her to see Jims eyes. His answer was mono syllable. "Yes."
 "And I asked you the same thing and you told me no. That was ai- most a month ago."
 There was a pause. "If you-ever feel differently I want you to tell me, Jim."
 The man smoked in silence. After a moment he took the cigaret from his lips. T don't know what you're driving at." he said. but I'll tell Iyou."
 After a few minutes he arose :. "Isn't this the night Paul White mans orchestra is on the air?" he asked. Must be about time Tor them"
 He went into the house and soon Gypsy heard the strains of dance music. She stayed on the porch. :. Later when she went into the living room Jim was not in sight. She did not see him again that evening. Her attempt at discussion had failed. What would be the next step?
 Time alone could answer.
 It began to be a question which was more painful-the long days in the house with only the servants or evenings with Jim there. If only she could have talked to him! That was not to be expected because they had never shared their private fee1- ings. And Jim was suffering as much as she was. Gypsy felt sure of that. Occasionally she would look up and discover that he had been watching her. None of the common interests which had made their hours together so looked-forward-to seemed suffice now.
 The garden and the grounds were in good shape. The redecoration of the house had been finished long ago. Jim talked little about hts Ipractice as he had during the Rob- erts case. Even Pat was no longer a subject for conversation. ] (TO be C0ntinued)
