BONE DEFORMITY
MAY BE CHECKED
Cornell Investigators Hope
to Aid Poultrymen.

Supplied by. the New York State College
Of Agriculture.-WNU Service.
Nationwide recognition has come
to research workers at the Cornell
poultry department for their work
on the cause and prevention Of per-
osis, bone defornity in young
chickens. The problem has had the
attention of scientists throughout the
country for years.
The Cornell Investigators have
been experimenting for the past two
years on the relation of certain in
organic elements to this disorder
in chicks. They do not announce a
"cure" but merely the role these
elements have in the cause and
prevention Of this disorder.
The scientists announce that per-
osis is due to the lack Of certain
inorganic elements, of which man.
ganese is notable, and that an ex-
cess Of calcium and phosphorus
makes the condition worse. They dis
covered that the perosis- preventing
property Of common feed stuffs was
roughly in proportion to their man
ganese content. By means of a
spectroscopic analysis, considerable
manganese and traces of iron were
detected in substances used in their
studies. Aluminium also entered into
the picture.
Centering attention on manganese,
the investigators had to work with
Measurements as fine as 0.0025 per
cent, which is Is parts to a million,
adding that amount to diet al
ready containing 0.O01O per cent.
!. This amount was found to be quite
effective in preventing perosis
where 10 and liz per cent Of calcium
was present in the ration. 1t also
worked with similar levels Of phos-
phOrus.
Aluminium and zinc were shown. to
have similar but less effective pre-
ventive action. A.mixture Gilman
ganese, aluminium, and zinc pre-
vented the disorder at the lower cal
ciurn and phosphorus levels and, in
addition benefited growth slightly.
The Cornell research workers say
results have merely demonstrated
the Importance Of manganese and
certain other trace. elements in pre-
venting perosis. Now they intend to
determine the quantities Of the ell
ements needed to best handle the
disorder.

can be kept before the birds in
hoppers. all the time profitab1y.
~. - -
The first indication of hen quit
ting is "a. comb starting to dry up
and old feathers easily pulled out.
Bantams, being small, require but
minimum space. "A by - foot in
closure six feet high will be found
excellent.
Putting all the pullets into the

is not always a good practice for
the poultryman.
Barley alone may not be too heat
ing but has not the proper quail
ties for a balanced ration. Use
some wheat and oats, as well as
the barley; also green feed and
corn.

Tokyo Builds Fifty Mile
 Sub,vay for Use of Throngs
 During Olympic Games, I94O

TOKYO, Jan. 18.-In preparation for the enormous crowds which are expected by Tokyo for the l940 Olympic Games, the Tokyo govern ment is already actively working on plans to extend traffic facilities.
 Chief among the new transpor- talicn devices for passengers is a trough subway service from Asa kusa Kaminarimon, Tokyo's great amusement center, to Uraga, the place where Commodore Perry first put foot in Japan. This line covers a distance of 50 miles.
 According to the plan so far made available, the Kaminarimon-Shim- bashi subway will be extended to Fudanotsuji Shiba, connecting there with an elevated line of the Keihin electric railway company from Shin- agawa. The proposed underground lallway from Shimbashi to Fudanot- suji will pass through Minamisaku- macho, Atago-cho, Shiba park, Ak abane and Mitadori.
 The Keihin underground railway company, which has the contract for the new subway, hopes that the construction may be completed be-

 the stability of American markets from the influx of about seven bil- lions of foreign capital which might be withdrawn precipitately. That was followed up by treasury action "sterilizing" all new and foreign gold receipts so they cannot swell bank reserves so actively.
 The Federal Reserve Board also pulled on the reins by increasing marginal requirements; in other words. reducing the amount of cash that could be borrowed on stocks for speculative purposes.
 The reserve board still has au- thority to require another billion or so to be set aside as bank re- serves. There is talk of asking con gress to give the Reserve Board and the Securities and Exchange Com mission still further power to handle the boom.
 But now check up the economy talk. President Roosevelt himself discouraged many persons ambi- tious to cut governmental costs when he let it be known that his reorgan- ization plans called more for effici- ency than economy.
 Harry Hopkins, WPA administra- tor has indicated he wanted even more than the half billion dollars the President had in mind to carry on for the balance of this fiscal year. Yet, on the saving side, when he sought recently to cut WPA rolls in New York, he was overridden.
 Many Are Pessimistic In light of many experiences, il is difficult for observers to look to Congress to volunteer any real cut ting of government costs. The trouble lies in this: One-third of the Senators and all House members are up for reelection in less than two years. Their experience is that cutting costs in Washington also cuts votes back home
 Yet if costs are not cut, the gov ernment will need courage to re- tain or increase present tax levels to retire the depression debt. Time seasoned Senator King of Utah does not conceal his pessimism at the prospect. He doubts that either the Administration or Congress will really cut costs.
 ssim ism isn't universal in Washington, but back of a good many official smiles is concern over whether the courage will be avail able when it is needed

Sitting in Madison Square Gar den watching the cast of some 50 professional skaters under the di- rection of Edward A. Mahlke, sec retary of the U. s. Olympic skating committee, prepare for the first Ice Follies" while the workmen un- loaded carloads of scenery, costumes, props and stage effects, one was impressed by the way in which win ter sports have taken hold of New York City, Hockey, fancy skating, skiing-all the sports that one as sociates with winter-have played to capacity houses whenever staged.
 Days before the Ice Foiiies of 1887" were staged, the promoters reported sellouts for both perform ances. If previous bookings had not made it impossible, the show would have been extended a full week.
 Chief interest centered around the performance of Bess Ehrhardt, of Wisconsin. The 19-year-old fi- gure skater is endowed with striking beauty, and has developed into a finished exhibition skater with speed and assurance on the ice that is unrivalled.
 Amazes Champions
 The European inportations, Ida Papez and Karl zwack of Austria, were charmed by the young stars rehearsal performances, indicating that they were amazed to find such talent on this side of the Atlantic. This pair possesses national and in- ternational championships, so their opinions carry considerable weight. Miss Ehrhardt may never rival the famed Sonia Heinie on the ice, but if anyone is likely to come close to the incomparable Sonia it is this Miss Bess. Her program includes many acrobatic routines. Her pair skating with Roy Shipstead is sen sational, for they execute a pro- longed lift wherein Shipstead makes complete spiral around the rink while Miss Ehrhardt is in the air.
 Miss Ehrhard comes from that part of the country where all chil- dren learn to skate almost as soon as they are able to walk. She was years old when she learned to skate and since then has won fame as the outstanding fancy skater in the midwest.
 Tango On Ice
 While Roy Shipstead was rehears- ing his famed spinning act, Heinie Brock, the Canadian ice comedian, was convulsing the workmen with two of his famous burlesques-the first as Sam Lee, a barrel-jumping China-bo and the second as the Dying Duck" travesty on Paw lowa's masterpiece.
