PURDUE OFFERS
SPECIAL STUDY
IN VEGETABLES
Short Course Is Designed to
Benefit Young
Growers.

Times SpeciGl
LAFAYETTE, Ind, Dec. 20.-A
special short course in vegetable
crops is to be given at Purdue Uni
versity Jan. 81 to Feb. /, 1t was an
nounced here today by the Purdue
University horticultural department
Designed primarily for young
growers with limited or no expert
ence, rather than for commercial
growers, the course is to touch on
all problems of vegetable cultiva-
ton.
Production and marketing OF
crops is TO be discussed by speak
ers from the Purdue staff. Such
topics as the general situation and
Importance Of horticultural prod
ucts in the Hoosier State are to be
discussed, along with the technical
phases of producing and marketing
vegetables
Subjects of Talks
DR.. J. H. MacGillivray is to ex-
plain how plants grow; E. G. Stair,
practical points on plant growing; F.
~ LAY " dllo lIldIheUlIlS,
G. P. Walker, fertilizers for vege-
tables, and DR.. R. w. Samson, plant
diseases.
A talk on insects and how to
Identify and control them is to
be given by Prof. J. j. Davis; R. R.
Fraser is to speak on soil and plant
testing methods; J. A. MacClintock
and Mr.. Stair, busting and spraying
materials and how to apply them,
and w. w. Ward, potatoes for In
diana.
Along with these lectures are to
be demonstrations and actual class
work in the tasks with which every
successful vegetable grower must be
familiar.
Further information about the
course may be obtained from any
county agricultural agent or the
horticultural department of Purdue
University here.

made fransmutation of the elements
and artificial radioactivity by high
energy atomic Commandment were
reported TO the meeting of the
American Physical Society here to-
day from the laboratories of the
host institution, the University Of
California
Eight different chemical elements,
rahging from sodium and chlorine,
found in common table salt, to rare
platinum and deadly arsenic, give
off piercing radiation like that from
radium, according to papers pre-
sented by investigators working in
the laboratory of Prof E.. o.
Lawrence. y
Tool of accomplishment foy the
many researches was the giant 85-
ton cyclotron magnetic accelerator
apparatus, invented and developed
by Prof. Lawrence.
The investigators not only have
the immediate purpose of telling
how atoms are put together but hold
the hope Of realizing some cheap
yet effective substitute for costly
radium in the treatment of cancer
and It's allied diseases.
New Reports Hopeful
Gamma radiation, the type of rays
used in cancer hospitals, was re-
ported by j. R. Richardson as being
given off from sodium, chlorine and
aluminium with energies as high as
100000 volts.
Platinum became radioactive I'M
der deuteron bombardment, declared
j. N. Cork and Prof. Lawrence, and
yielded radiation having energy Of
100000 volts. H. G. Paxton de-
scribed experiments with radioactive
phosphorus having a half life period
of over so hours. Comparable ex-
periments with zinc discussed by DR..
j. j. Livingood yielded artificial
radioactivity having a half life of
as much as 100 hours.
Most artificially radioactive ele-
ments retain their activity for only
a few minutes at the most. The

cal and medical applications, has

"a vigorous fire continued for
about thirty minutes on the left
flank, then from the right flank.
The American army demonstrated
wonderful craftsmanship and care,
as after the battle was over, not a
single noncombatant, woman, or
child on the Mexican side of the
line had been shot.
"One remarkable incident was in
the case of the Villa officer. who
opened fire on the United States
troops. He was with two women, ap-
parently members of his family,
who were using every effort to pre-
vent him from shooting, but in the
struggle he succeeded in raising his
rifle to mis- shoulder and fired the
signal shot, and his comrades con-
tinued the fire. Some American
soldiers dropped him Immediately,
the two women by his side remain

and accuracy followed through the
whole battle.
During the heaviest of the fire,

posing the Villa faction, appeared

one and wounding two, and the fire
was returned with heavy effect
but as soon as the mistake was dis
covered, firing ceased.

Stephen Little of the United States
Army, Company "L", 18th Infantry

Carolina, was killed, and two were
wounded. The death toll on the
Mexican side was estimated from
seventy-five to one hundred. and
the sequence was that the Villistas
who had cast slurs and insults at
the President of the United States
the United States Army and Amer

The Superior Court decision was
appealed to the State Supreme
Court. After the money was paid
to the First National Bank the
council did not press the appeal.
Appeal Urged
Last week at a recess meeting OF
the council. Charles S. Wise,
and others appeared before the
council requesting that the appeal
be pressed. They pointed out that
should the decision of the Superior
Court be reversed that the money
illegally collected through taxation
would be returned to the taxpayers.
At the meeting the council in
structed the mayor and city attor-
ney to press the appeal.
Reasons For Veto
Monday n1ghC. mayor BeCtWy gave
reasons for his veto Of the resolu-
tion of the board of aldermen cit
ing the following:
/ - The decision of the Superior
Court in the mandamus action, re-
quired the city to budget for the
paving delinquency and earmark
the funds. This was done by the
Wise administration.
2-The debt has been paid to the
First National Bank and should we
obtain a reversal from the Supreme
Court this money will not be re-
turned by the bank as the bonds
have been cancelled.

Supreme Court will entertain the
appeal after the transaction has
been closed and the money paid to
the bank.

The President himself has ordered
the Federal Trade Commission to
begin a searching inquiry into liv-
ing costs.
Another move which is under
serious consideration by the AAA
is the proposal of legislation which
would put the milk supply of cities
on the basis of a public utility, and
subject to rigid state and federal
control This has been talked of
before, but now the talk seems
serious.
The Presidents statement on the
1886 budget, coupled with the
promise of a determined effort to
reduce Governmental costs for the
next fiscal year in further calculat-
ed to strengthen the Administra-
tion's position Mr.. Roosevelt assured
the nation that no new taxes or
permanent increase in personal tax
rates will be necessary, unless the
supreme Court should declare the
processing taxes, levied under the
AAA, to be unconstitutional. The
promise and the expectation are
CilaC relief expenditures by the Fed
eral Government will be reduced
rapidly, and a much larger propor-
elon OF relief costs will be shifted
back to the states.

COLORED LABOR IS
TREATED UNJUSTLY
in DETROIT PLANTS

DETROIT = Discrimination IN
the unemployment of labor by the
majority of industrial plants in
Detroit is fundamentally the chief
reason for the large number of
colored persons on the welfare re-
lief rolls here and in Wayne Coun-
ty.
This was revealed by John F.
Bailenger, white. county welfare
administrator, Friday morning at
THE Third Annual Conference on
Economic Life of the Detroit Ne
gro" at the Lucy Thurman branch
Of the YWCA.
Not Being Retired
Mr.. Ballenger disclosed that al
though the colored population is
10000, or eight per cent Of the
citys population, twenty-three per
cent Of those on the relief rolls are
colored. This, ne said, can be at
tributed to tie fact that the indus
trial plants are not re-employing
colored in the same large numbers
that they were discharged.
In comparing the colored per-
sons on the relief rolls with the
foreign-born receiving welfare aid
Mr.. Ballenger pointed out that
thirty-two per cent Of the total
number on the rolls are foreign
born, as against the twenty-three
per cent for the colored Many of
the foreigners have only secured
their first naturalization papers.
