IN LATE BOOK
Sir Napier Shaw Starts
Volume With Chapter
on Sky'S Beauty.
BY DAVID DIETZ
Seripps Howard Science Editor

Many a person dreams of jour
neys to the far corners Of the world
to see the wonders of nature, for
getting that volcano or a water
fall has no monopoly upon ajesty
or beauty. One Of the best places
TO seek the wonders of nature is in
the sky overhead.
The clouds are an ever changing
pageant Of beauty. The sky is hard
ly ever twice alike. 1t changes
with the position of the sun, the
temperature, the barometric pres
sure, the wind.
A new communion with nature
awaits one who becomes student
Of the weather The weather be-
comes something more than the
reason for big coal bill or the
necessity for wearing overshoes.
The best way to get acquainted
with the weather Of course, is by
paying attention to it, But a good
guide always helps And I can
think of no better guide than Sir
Napier Shaw, famous British me-
teorologist and former president of
the International Meteorological
committee.
Sir Napier has just written exact
ly the book which the layman needs
to kive him proper introduction
to the weather. 1t is The Drama of
Weather" published by Macmillan
at $3.50.
Sir Napier begins, not by talking
about high pressure areas and low
pressure areas, but by talking about
"Pageantry in the Sky" He be-
gins with a remarkable series of
photographs Of clouds and a de-
scription of them.
Clouds Like Volcanoes

tells U.s. But he also cautions us to
be careful Of our interpretations, for
mature is not at all unwilling to
suggest things that turn out after
all not to be true"
Dust as well as clouds sometimes
contributes to the pageantry of the
sky and the winter gives us pictures
OF dust clouds, dust whirlS and
curling plumeS of smoke.
Discusses Storms
He proceeds next to things that
transpire "-waterspouts, tornadoes,
hurricanes, rain and snow, frost and
ice, and the lightning.
Side by side with a picture of a
lightning flash, he prints a picture
which is copy Of the River Anna

first glance the photos seem almost
duplicates of each other.

some meaning" he says, and the

STATES To GET
HOME LOAN
MANAGERS

The new Home owners Loan
Corporation, created by Congress
with $4,000, ,000,0 backing, will
name a general manager in every
State to bring relief to mortgage
ridden home owners, Chairman
William F.. Stevenson said IN a
statement today.
The announcement was accom-
panied by a warning that the
Federal agency can refinance only
a small part of the home mort
gage indebtedness of the country,
which has reached a total of $2O,-
O00, 100000. Stevenson said:
There will be a general
manager for the corporation
established in each State, with
sufficient employees to handle
the business, whose location will
be well known and applications
to such manager should be
made by mail or personal call
for blanks to fill out, making
applications for loans to take
up mortgages in existence"
If the application indicates the
loan is one that can be made, an
appraiser will be assigned imme-
diately to value the property.
The great hope of the corpora
ton is to exchange bonds, the
interest of which is guaranteed
by the Government, for first
mortgages.
The corporation, under the law,
will loan up to 80 per cent Of
the value of the property, the
loan being made by the bond
exchange.
Direct loans up to 40 per cent
Of the value Of the property can
be made from the cash funds
of the corporation. Stevenson said
comparatively few loans of this
kind can be made, because most
homes are mortgaged for more
than 40 per cent of their value.
The loans also may be made
to so percent of the value of
homes on which there. is no
mortgage to enable the owner
to pay taxes, assessments, and
provide necessary repairs.
Stevenson urged the present
mortgage lenders to continue to
finance homes. The big Job of
the Government, he said, is to
come to the rescue of persons
about to lose their homes.

use Of fog or mist of brine at four

After six months of cold storage

Other poultry similarly handled were

New Sugar Cane

The great enemy of the sugar cane
raiser, freezing weather, may be van
quished as result Of experimental
work carried on by the bureau Of plant
industry and the bureau Of chemistry
and soils. This problem is sometimes
acute in Louisiana where sudden frosts
have often forced raisers to cut their
cane and allow it to lie in windrows
for several days before it could be
gathered. This practice often resulted
in great loss, for the cane lost Its
sweetness rapidly when left in wind
rows. However, new type of cane
has been introduced by the federal Of
ficiaIs which retains it's sweetness for
fairly long periods when left lying on
the ground, and this new variety,
which is immune to the mosaic dis,
ease, offers the solution of the problem.

mented with about 2 per cent of cod.
liver oil or sardine oil, which, in one
years tests, has given as good results
as codliver oil.
Irradiated yeast supplies vitamin
D, the same as codliver oil, but it
needs to be mixed with the mash at
the rate of only one-half Of one per
cent. However, it is more expensive,
so that. on a cost basis, the codliver
oil is still the most practical carrier
of vitamin D for the poultryman to
use.

There should be sufficient nests pro-

A five-pound hen requires the equiv.
alent of so pounds of corn year for
maintenance. This much feed she must
have for body upkeep before any egg
laying can follow.
Even If free range is available. hens
should not be expected to forage for
all their feed. A supply should be
kept always available at the poultry
house to supplement the feed obtained
on the range. ..:.-.. .. -.-> ~.
Poultry or eggs are produced on
more than 100000 farms in the
United States, which has about 6,OOO,-

The color and quality Of yolks OF
eggs can be improved by feeding plenty
of green food, such as chopped green
barley hay, green alfalfa and kale.
When egg prices are high and the
margin between first grade and poor
quality eggs is wide, farmers secure
distinct advantage in selling on
grade.
The United States turkey crop last
year is reported as being around 49,.
100000 birds.
Chicks multiply their size to II
times during the first 8 or 10 weeks Of
their lives. Therefore 1t is essential
in good management to provide plenty
of space.
The only method birds have Of get
ting rid of parasites Is thoroughly to
impregnate the feathers with fine
dust, and dislodge their minute enc
mics by shaking.

Sandy or Gravelly Clay
Best for Farm Reservoir

A satisfactory material for farm
reservoirs Is q sandy or gravelly clay
that can be packed almost watertight
says tt, bureau of agricultural engi
neering, United States Department of
Agriculture. If the bed of the reser.
voir is naturally of such materials,
and If the water is not to be used for
domestic purposes, the bottom can be
packed by bedding or feeding sheep
on the site when the earth is wet. If
the soil is not clayey it is sometimes
practical to spread three or four.
inch layer of clay over the bottom and
sides of the reservoir and mix it with
the surface soil by disking or har.
rowing. The bed should then be
packed by rolling or by the tramping
of stock.
When the water Of small reservoir
is for domestic purposes, ordinary
concrete makes satisfactory lining
IF the lining is not reinforced, it
should be from two to four inches
thick, and should be placed in blocks
or squares of Is to 20 feet with ex-
pansion joints to prevent formation of
cracks. Into the joints should be cast
a corrugated strip of copper or lead to
give a watertight job. To reinforce
Innings, layer of woven wire is some
times used.
To prevent the heaving of concrete
Innings in freezing weather when res.
ervoirs are empty, where soils are
other than porous sand or gravel the
Innings should either be watertight, or
laid on thick layers Of coarse gravel
which will provide draining. Or drain
tile may be laid outside the reservoirs
to carry away the water. E -.
