Establishment of Regional

WASHINGTON, Dec. Is. (UP)
Establishment Of three laboratOr-
les for investigation Of regional
problems were the outstanding de-
velopmcntS Of the past year in
scientific agricultural research,
according to the department Of
agriculture.
The laboratories were cStab-
lishcd by the department Of agri-
culture in cooperation with states
under provisions Of the Bankhead-
Jones act, James I. Jardinc, chief
of the office of experiment sta
tons, said.

THREE LABORATORIES
SET UP IN 1896
The three new laboratories
supplement three similar develop
mentS Of the previous year - the
vegetable breeding laboratory for
the southeast. the sOybcan labor
atory for the corn belt, and the
nas,urc Improvement laboratory
for the northeast.
The laboratories, Jardinc said,
enable the state experiment stat
tions and the department of agrl-
culture research scientists to pool
their efforts toward Improvement
of crops and livestock, eliminating
the old practice of jealous compe-
tition.,
This program for development
Of research according to regional
needs "haS the whole-hcarted ac-
tive interest and help Of the state
stations" Jardine said.
Regional research was made
possible by appropriations under
the observation-disclosures act, which
unlike previous legislation for sup
port Of the experiment stations
requires state appropriations TO
offset federal contributions.
Each state complied with this
requirement and, on the average,
state appropriations were several
times over requirements under
this provision, Jardine said. State
appropriations amounted to about
$l2, 200, 900, or slightly more than
So from state sources for every 81

The Authority on Authorities"

one of the best woman experts in
the country, actually managed to
defeat the contract, holding it to
2-No Trumps. She had listened to
the bidding, which was diamond
by South, 1-Spade by North and
3-No Trumps by South. She rea-
soned that South must have exact
ly two little spades; if only a sim
gleton, he would not have jumped
into 3-No Trumps; if as many as
three, or two to the Q or Ace, he
would have forced in some way to
see whether North wanted to rebid
his spades. So she eschewed her
natural lead Of hearts and offered
the spade K. The declarer, reck-
oning from this that the spades
were all punched at his left, let it
go and tried the spade finesse on
the second round. He now had no
way to take more than eight tricks
and was therefore down one.

laxis, which is the opposite of
prophylaxis.
Born With Sensitivity
However, it is now known that
an initial attack is not necessary;
that the body cells seem to be
born with a certain sensitivity to
these various substances.
This hereditary nature Of the
condition has been denied by some
people. The study of identical
twins would seem to be a good field
to prove or disprove it. Several
have been made on this subject. In
a study of II twins with different
forms Of allergy, it was found
that in similar instances both
twins were sensitive to the same
substance.
1 have before me the study of a
number of families, including fam
lilies with identical twins. This is
a paper read before the Association
for the Study Of Allergy. It shows
that when person with hay fever
or similar condition was found In
a family, that study of the rest
of the family showed no higher
percentage of hay fever than in the
general population. But in the dis
cussion Of that paper, four identi-
cal sets Of twins were reported,
and hay fever or asthma was
found in both twins.
My own experience leaves me no
doubt as to the hereditary nature
of these conditions. I have in mind
half a dozen cases in which I have
formerly had as patients, fathers
and sons, or mothers and children,
both having the same type OF hay
fever. Sometimes it does not de-
velop in children at the same age.
1 know one pair of sisters in whom
the fall typesDf hay fever devel-
oped in the elder at about the age
Of 10. The younger sister was
entirely free until she was 20.
when she developed the spring type
Of hay fever.

After As days of idleness as a result
of the automobile strike, the wheels of
the great industry are beginning to

Buick dealers.
''The factory executive said that every
effort will be made to make up for lost
time and to get cars into the hands Of
dealers and customers.
Many customers are waiting for the
new Buick cars. Many placed orders
and have been willing to wait for de-
livery of their cars until after settle
ment of the strike and the resumption
of production. This is true not only
here in Ely, where we have a large
number of retail orders on the books,
but in every other leadership in the
country.
In this respect the loyalty of our
Buick customers has been strongly dem
onstrated during this strike period and
it is deeply appreciated. The thanks

Mr.. Curtice told me this loyalty and
patience will be rewarded by the

the Flint factories have been immedi-
ately geared to capacity output
During March it is expected that
Buick output will be at full capacity
and will continue at this rate during
the spring months.
The popularity of the 1887 cars and
the strong demand for them is indicated
by the fact that Buick will enter March

FOREST SOILS
NOTFARM SOILS
Regional Forester Watts Says
Cutover Pine Lands Fail
for Farming Needs.

| mot all the soils of the North Gen.
trail Region of the United States are
forest soils; neither are they all suit
able for farming" Regional Forester
Lyle r. Watts of the United States
Forest Service stated yesterday
During the decades of the past CEN
fury the opinion in most circles was
that the sooner the forests could be cut
the quicker the fine fertile land there
under could be put under cultivation.
In Michigan alone, 35 billion board
feet or nearly one-tenth of the original
timber stand in the state was cut and
burned in clearing land. 1t is true that
some Of the best timber grew on fertile
agricultural soils and that the forest
looked endless. Yet vast areas of sandy
unfertile soil were cleared for use
for which they were entirely unsuited."
Mr.. Watts went on to explain how
the belief during the '80s was that most
of the pine lands of the Lake States
would in time become fine farming
areas as had most of the southern part
of these states. Timber operators clear
cut the timber with the view of selling
the lands for farming. Realtors and
others, including governmental agen-
cieS, not realizing the lack of fertility
and climatic handicaps, sold millions
of acres to farmers. Temporary mar
kets in the vicinity Of the short Lived
numbering towns doomed All farmers
did well for few seasons, but success
was short-lived for those who were not
fortunate enough to be on the better
hardwood soils.
THE people Of the North Central
Region have big job before them to
see that the needed adjustments are
made. One of the most important ad-
justments is rural land coming. This
should be followed by reforestation
where necessary so that idle acres on
the farm or in the forest may in time
carry their fair share of the tax load.
Other essential adjustments are the
prevention of forest fires and the estab-
Eshment of permanent woodusing in
dustrieS. The public can make possible
or prevent permanent woodusing in
dustries by its action in favor or against
equitable taxation. 1t must become
economically possible for private owners
to hold and manage forest land per-
manently."
