this relationship, Hollywood appar- cntly is trying to break it up.
 Nothing causes hard feelings in this town quicker than profession al jealousy. So the talents of the Bennett sisters continually are be- ing compared. Instead of criticizing or praising one, she invariably is compared with her sister in an ef- fort to show how much better or worse she is.
 So far Connie and Joan have managed to laugh off these cracks and continue to be pals. But one of these days such cracks are apt to get under their skins. Let's hope not, however.
 The same thing happened to the Chaplins, Charlie and Syd. And it has happened frequently to Wally and Noah Beery.
 {: And What Ring
 And while the Bennett family is in mind, an incident that occurred at Comics party the other night might be worth relating. Every thing was peaceful.
 One of the guests asked to see Comics adopted daughter. The two went upstairs and Connie opened the door to the nursery very quietely-when all of a sud- den a great changing of bells start cd.

What 1t Does
This small dosage of Phillips Milk

surmountable barrier against funiga-
ton and chemical disinfectants. Elk
periments have shown that heat is
probably the most practical and eff
fective method of freeing the soil of
disease germs, insects and weeds,
which retard healthy development of
plants.
Most authorities agree that a tenn
perature of 100 degrees F. is sufficient
to kill these pests and disease organ
isns and at the same time not injure
the productivity of the soil With
these basic facts known the Puget
Sound Power g. Light Company engi-
neers set to work to develop a device
for sterilization that would be simple
to operate, cheap to construct and
economical to run. They found that
electricity would do the work If prop
erly harnessed. But up to that time
no one had produced such machine
as they believed necessary for prac-
tical use.
Now these engineers announce the
completion of successful experiments
Vashon Island news-record. [volume] (Vashon, Wash.) 1919-1954, 1932-10-27

with a system they have developed
and perfected here in the Puget Sound
country. This apparatus has proved
SO successful that letters have been
pouring into the agricultural engineer
ing department of the Puget Sound
Power & Light Company from all
parts Of the country, asking for in
formation about the device. These in
quiries are coming from the foremost
agricultural colleges, universities and
private concerns in the United States.
Among the most recent of these are
letters from New Jersey State Agri-
cultural College, University of Idaho,
college of engineering, National Rural
Electric Project of Maryland, Wash
ington Committees on the Relation of
Electricity to Agriculture, Pullman,
University of Wisconsin, college of
agriculture, and Purdue University
Agricultural Experiment Station.
The new device heats the soil by
forcing an electric current through it..
Metal plates are placed so that an
equal amount of current can go

through nil parts of the soil or sand
to be sterlized. With an even moisture
content in all parts Of the soil, an
even temperature can be obtained
easily, which Is declared to be exceed
ingly difficult with any other method
of soil sterilization.
Current at the usual voltage Of 900,
as used on the farm and In electric
cooking Is used to operate the soil
sterilizers. Damp soil reaches a tenn
perature of 1870 degrees In 8 minutes
to l-2 hours depending on the con-
struction Of the apparatus. according
to experiments conducted at the Sum-
ner station, Quicker results can be-
obtained with wetter soil. The maxi
mum current consumption is reached
very quickly and then consumption
goes down owing to the drying Of the
soil, which in itself is good safety
device and prevents overlooking. In
practical operation current is turned
off when the temperature reaches $50
degrees.
Not only will the greenhouse oper-
ators of this state be benefited by the
perfection Of this electric soil steriliza-
ton apparatus, 1t Is declared, but

able to take advantage Of the results
obtained. One inquiry from the east
