E|NSTE|N SEEKS
TO JOIN THEORIES
Searches for Missing Link
Between Classical and
Quantum Thought.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PASADENA, Calf, February 19.-Al-
bert Einstein is seeking the missing
link between the two divergent classes
of thinking in modern physics-the
classical and the quantum theories,
Every day he conferS with the leading
physicists of the California Institute of
Technology. who are building equations
upon equations. They are Richard
Chace Tolman, Paul S. Epstein and
Boris PodolSky. Ever since Einstein
announced his principle of relatively 25
years ago these mathematicianS have
been working on the problem.
The classical theory holds that all
matter is based on wave length the
Quantum theory that all matter is OF
Corpuscular basis.
Einstein has revealed that he thinks
some combination of the two views Will
solve the problem. Tolman and Po-
dolsky have had many conferences with
him, day and night.
Destroyed Wave-Length Theory.
It was Einstein who destroyed the
conception of wave-length theory as an
absolute conclusion. For 10 years Or.
Robert A. Millikan, pursuing his analy-
sis of electrons. sought to defend it and
champions of Einstein against it.
Now physicists the world over are
looking for the link between the guam
tum mechanics of Planck and the uni
fed field theory of Einstein. The sub
ject is perhaps one of the most difficult
of all mathematical subjects to under
stand.
Laboratories Far Ahead.
Einsteln has told the physicists that
the laboratories are far ahead of the
ANALYTICAL theorists in observations and
intin1ated that when a proper analysis
of the observed experimental phenom-
ena can be made advances of tremen-
dous value bringing about vast bene-
fits for mankind, will ensue.
One of the most fascinating things
he has found in America. he told other
physicists, is the awakening of popular
interest in scientific research work.
He will continue his conferences with
the scientists here up to the hour of his
departure for Berlin, set for Febru-
airy 81.

MICHIGAN DRY POLL
KILLED IN BILL FORM
Sponsor Has New Legislative Meas
ure After First Fails as Be-
ing Straw Vote.

BY the Associated Press.
LANSING, Mich, February ia
legal technicality yesterday had virtually
wiped out the possibility of State
wide vote on prohibition this Spring.
simultaneously, an attack upon the
proposal to submit capital punishment
to a popular vote was launched in the
State Legislature.
Representative Vincent P. Dacey of
Detroit Tuesday night Withdrew his
resolution demanding referendum in
April on the question, do you favor
prohibition in, its present form?" when
Paul w. VOORHEES,. attorney general
ruled it was out of order.
The wet legislator promptly returned
to the attack. however. by introducing
a DILL asking a Statewide vote in No
vember, 1892 to determine whether the
State prohibition act shall be repealed
The measure was referred to the Ju-
dietary Committee at Dacey's request
He believes it will be reported to the
floor favorably.
Daceys original resolution had been
slated for debate in the House this
afternoon. VOORHEES, held the resolution
could not be considered by the Legisla-
ture because it provided for nothing
more than straw vote.

Acid Soils For Mountain Laurel
One of the secrets of successful cul-
ture of mountain laurel, rhododen-
drons, azaleas and similar plants is to
maintain an acid soil condition. The
simplest method of developing suita-
BILE quarters for them is to dig out
the beds, removing the soil, particu-
larly, if it is heavy clay or has been
mixed with lime or mortar from build
ing operations. Leaf mold (half rot
ted leaves) from oak or pine woods,
mixed with one part of sand and one
part of loan may be used to fill the
beds. Each fall the plants should
be mulched with oak leaves or pine
needles, sawdust or pulverized peat.
This mulch should not be disturbed
once it is in place. The gradual de-
composition maintains the acid reac-
ton of the soil and aids materially
in retaining moisture in dry seasons.
A heavy mulch aids also in carrying
plants through the winter season
without injury.
Providing congenial conditions for
growth, however, is only one part of
the story. If one would have luxur-
liant growth, he must add suitable food
materials. Here is where the amateur
gardener may get into difficulties, for
fertilizers which suit many of the or
binary plants may counterfeit the soil
conditions so carefully provided for
and work serious harm to the plants.
Special formulas have been worked
out to avoid this difficulty and one re-
Gently offered in Horticulture may be
recommended. It is as follows:
Ten pounds ammonium sulphate, 35
lbs. high grade superphosphate, 17lbs.
high grade sulphate of potash, % lbs.
cotton seed meal, 10 lbs. aluminium
sulphate.
This mixture may be applied lone
at the rate of three and one-half lbs.
per one hundred square feet of bed
area, or a six inch flower pot full may
be mixed with wheelbarrow load of
suitable compost of pulverized peat
moss.
The broad-leaved evergreens such
as mountain laurel, rhododendron and
azalea are often seriously scorched by
the winter sun in exposed places. 1t
is usually advisable, therefore, to
plant them on the east or north side
of the house. They should not be
placed in dense shade, for although
they may make satisfactory growth,
they will not bloom as freely as when
given good light conditions. /
These Towering evergreens are so
beautiful when well-grown that it will
pay to make special preparation of
the soil where they are to be planted.

other parts of the body.

other parts of the body.
Most persons are born with what
is known as farsightedness. This is
the more normal condition of the eye,
for our ancestors had little use for
close vision, rather they needed to
see long distances as a matter of self
protection, and it takes many genera
tons for change to take place in
the physical proportions of any part
of the body. So most eyes have kept
their original structure, giving great
er and clearer vision at more than a
reading distance.
At first, the lack of clear vision at
near point is not noticed, for there
is no more adaptable organ in the
body than the eye. 1t will exert all
it's energy, which is no mean power,
to secure perfect sight of objects close
to it. But in doing this very thing
it drains such an enormous amount of
energy from the system that many
parts of the body seem to be out of
order. That is why, for instance,
headaches and nausea are frequently
mistaken for organic disorders when
the thing that is wrong is, eyestrain.
Now eyestrain sounds unimportant
but, when neglected, it is responsible
for a considerable loss of sight. On
the other hand, with proper care and
barring accidents, we should keep our
sight intact and in excellent working
condition throughout our entire lives.
