Earth's Resources Ample
For All Imaginable Needs

OTTAWA, CAN.-The earth's re-
sources are sufficient, even abun-
dant, for any imaginable human
needs, if only they are wisely de-
vetoped and their products equi-
tably distributed. This was indi-
Gated in survey presented by
Frank f. Lathe of the National
Council of Canada, to the Ameri-
can Association for the Advance
ment of Science.
Immense supplies of the common.
er metals, especially iron, alumni
mum, magnesium and a few others
are within easy reach, the speaker
said. A few important metals, like
tin. copper, zinc and lead, face an
obscure" future, Mr.. Lathe admit
ted, but the present supplies are
readily available.
There need never be a lack OF
food, clothing, and shelter, he con-
tinued. There are food supplies
enough in sight now for all the
earth's population, and production
can be greatly increased through
scientific application of fertilizers.
Nor is there any visible limit to the
possible resources in fiber for cloth
ing and materials for housing, And
sources of energy for heat and pow
er are practically unlimited. The
real problems facing the world are
those of distribution and co-opera-

More Profit in Selling
Only Infertile Eggs

BY producing only infertile eggs
for market, Illinois farmers have a
chance to boost their poultry profits
by thousands of dollars annually,
according to H. H. Alp, poultry ex-
tension specialist, College of Agri-
culture, University of Illinois.
1T is almost an impossibility to
market eggs of high quality when
they are fertile he said. This
is esPeeiaiiyy-ttF#HHe during hot weatf1-
err since fertile egg will start in
cubation at temperature slightly
above SIS degrees Fahrenheit. Blood
rings are a natural result of par
tial incubation in fertile eggs.
: high percentage Of fertile eggs
will eventually be thrown away as
rots. This loss backs up to the
producer and is one of the biggest
losses he suffers.
There is only one way to elimi-
nate fertile eggs and that is to re-
move all males from the laying flock
Immediately following the close of
the breeding season."

Earth's Early Edens
Were Not Troubled
By Poisonous Snakes
BY DIR. FRANK THONE

WASHINGTON. - Snakes are
a comparatively new thing un-
der the sun. In the Age of Rep
tiles, that ended only SO or go
million years ago, they were al
most unknown. Only the last
of the dinosaurs, that lived in
Cretaceous times, ever had a
chance to see snakes, and those
were of the earliest models and
probably not numerous at that.
At least, their fossils are ex-
ceedingly rare today.
Data on the relative regency of
snakes are included in new mono
graph on Fossil Snakes. of North
America, written by Charles w.
Gilmore of the United States Ma
tional museum and published by the
Geological Society of America.
Snakes really began to get down
to business on this planet at about
the same time that mammals start
ed their long climb to domination.
Newcomers together. the snakes
and we.
Vcnomous Ones Came Later.
The first snakes were non-poison-
Gus, resembling modern black
snakes and boas in that respect.
Venomous species did not appear,
SO far as the present record shows,
until upper Miocene time, roughly
from l3 to ID million years ago.
First rattlesnakes began huzzing in
the geologic period Immediately aft
er that, the Pliocene, which lasted
from Is million years ago until the
Ice age began, about a million years
back.
Prize specimen in the collection
studied by Mr.. Gilmore is the prac-
tically entire skeleton of a snake
embedded in a slab of shale from
the Green River formation, in the
northern Rockies. Because of the
slenderness and fragility of snake
bones, it is rare to find Well-pre-
served fossils at all no other
skeleton so nearly complete as
I this has ever been discovered.
Technique combing the skills OF
sculptor and dentist was necessary
to free the fine bones from their
stone matrix, but it was finally ac-
complished without mishap. This
early invader of the American Eden
was serpent couple of inches
over yard long. It has been given
the scientific name Boavus Idel-
mani.

GET HIGH YIELDS
IN USING HYBRII)S
Attention Must Be Paid to
Soil Fertility.

Called a miracle crop by some
producers, hybrid corn is not mirac-
ulous enough to produce increased
yields without making increased de-
mands on soil fertility, according
to c. NJ Linsley, soils extension spe-
cialist, College of Agriculture, Uni
versity of Illinois.
AS farmers start thinking of their
supply of hybrid seed for the COM
ing cropping season, Linsley sug-
gests that some thought be given
to adjustments in soil and cropping
management to care for the in
creased drain on soil fertility made
by bodybuilding hybrid corn.
"The growing of hybrid corn is
justified by the fact that high yields
are essential to low production
COSTS" Linsley said However, it
is essential that there be some re-
duction in acreage and more atten-
ton paid to soil fertility and the
use of legumes. BY growing more
corn on fewer acres at less cost,
the land taken out of corn can very
well be devoted to soil-building leg
ume crops.
Use of adapted hybrid corn on a
reduced acreage, coupled with a
sane program of mineral and or
ganic matter replenishment fits well
into the AAA farm program and
the program of soil Improvement
that has been fostered for more
than a quarter of century by the
College of Agriculture.
There may be some difference
between hybrids in the amount Of
minerals utilized. but miracle n.y.
birds that can produce bumper
yields without taking anything from
the soil are yet to be produced II
such a hybrid should be discovered,
it would have little value for feed or
commercial use.
1t is estimated that the 361 ,673,-
900 bushels of corn produced on ILL
nois farms in 1888 used up phosphor-
us from the soils of the state to the
equivalent of 2l7, 900 tons of rock
phosphate or 4,340 carloads of SO
tons each.
In addition to the phosphorus,
even larger amounts of nitrogen,
potassium and lime were taken
from the soil by the 1888 Illinois
corn crop.

Balanced Fertilizer

To make a balanced fertilizer,
manure should be reinforced with
phosphates. Experiments show that
rs to 80 pounds of 20 per cent phos-
phate added to each ton of manure
will balance the plant food supply.
Others use the lower analysis rock
phosphate applying 80 to 100 pounds
to a ton of manure. The manure
and phosphate may be spread to-
gether at one operation. The phos-
phate may also be applied to the
manure in the barn at the rate of
one pound per day for each head of
mature live stock, says A. w. Klein

truth about ADVERTISING
ADvERTISlNG'S NO MYSTERY
BY CHARLES B. ROTH

He continued to advertise i'm the
newspaper. His business continued
to grow. He couldn't know all his
customers by name now, OF course,
but they felt that they could buy
from him with confidence because
he had been recommended to them
by another friend whom they had
always trusted.
This other friend who recommend
ed John Slattery was the newspaper
which carried his advertising.
Whatever you read in the news
paper you naturally feel you can be-
lieve, because you know that repu-
table newspaper will not accept adj
vertising from any but honest and
reliable concerns.
Because this young man starting
in business made use of that aid he
built his business. AS his business
grew he was able to give his Gus
toners better service and more for
their money.
Although few OF the persons read
ing his advertisements and becom-
ing his customers realized 1t, they
we're all indebted to the newspaper
for its service in bringing to their
attention an opportunity OF getting
more for their money by publishing
advertisements of this enterprising
young man.
Advertising is serving us in this
same way every day, by bringing
information OF where we can buy
most 4advantageously. by helping us
to find what we want the lowest
possible prices.

It is generally believed that the
superstition in connection with the
number "13" has reference to the
Last Supper of the Lord and His
disciples, at which 10 members
were present. Friday is considered
unlucky by Christians because it
was the day of the Lords crucifix-
ion. There is also legend that it
is the day on which Adam and Eve
partook of the forbidden fruit. Fri
day was considered unlucky among
the Buddhists, Brahmans and also
the Romans.
