Vltamin A in ApricOts

Babies born with a silver spoon
in their mouths are pretty apt to
find cod liver oil in the spoon-so
exacting are the demands for vita
min values these days.
Most youngsters are given cod
liver oil or other vltamin A and D
concentrates from the end of their
second week until they are four or
five years old.
Babies have no corner on the vita
minis, however, for adults are turn
ing to them increasingly often.
Sometimes We almost forget that
vitamins can be found in foods as
well as in tablets a. the drug store.
One of our most outstanding vita
min A foods is dried apricots Their
average vitamin A content is 1879
international units per 100 grams.
By grams is the way the dietitians
and doctors figure it, but we house
wives are accustomed to buying food
by pounds. Since there are Asa. SO
grams in a pound, we'll find 34,378
international units of vitamin A in a
single pound of dried apricots as
they come from the grocer's
shelves.

Chemical Properties of
Seaweed Being Studied

It is only within recent times that
the scientists have given serious at
tention to the chemical properties of
seaweed. Few people realize what
a valuable marine plant this is and
how it might be used as substitute
for various essential materials
which are likely to become scarce
on account of the war situation.
Seaweed is well known as use
full source of iodine, bromine and
potassium salts which are widely
used both in medicine and in indus
try. Experiments show that we can
obtain the basic substances for max
ing paper, clothing and even things
like glass and imitation rubber and
leather from this plant. Fresh dis
coveries are always being made too,
especially in the United Sites of
America, where the government has
financed experimental research sta
tons in connection with the great
kelp beds off the Pacific coast. In
the years ahead seaweed may be-
come one of the worlds most valu
able and indispensable raw ma
terialS.

Advance in Cancer Treatment

Science, through the use of sur
gerry, now has attained firm foot
hold in its fight against cancer of
the esophagus, disease once con-
sidered 100 per cent fatal.
Successful removal of the malig-
nant groWths by surgery has been
reported by University of California
surgeons.
The surgeons stated the success
of their treatment should encourage
all to look more hopefully on the
treatment of cancer of esophagus.
Here, they said, as in other parts Of
the body, if the cancer can be dag
nosed early and surgical treatment
instituted without undue delay,
means are now at hand to provide
satisfactory number of cured
patients.
The success of the surgery is due
to the highly co-ordinated action of
a surgical team" backed by a
corps of laboratory workers and
specially trained nurses and mech
anized by highly specialized equip
ment.
At present cancer of the esopha-
gus is responsible for about per
cent of all cancer deaths.

Tear Gas Benefits Soil;
DESTROYS Plant Disease

Cornell university plant doctors
the plant pathologists-are using
tear gas in new way. They inject
it into the soil of flower gardens,
where 1t destroys many of the or
ganisms that cause plant diseases.
The experiments, after three years,
have reached semi-commercial
stage. They are conducted in the
department of plant pathology by
F. L. Stark Jr. and DR.. A. G. New
hall.
The tear gas is injected IN shots
of about a good-sized thimbleful
each, in holes three inches deep and
staggered about 10 inches apart.
This is done before anything is
planted, for the tear gas will destroy
all growth 1t is very effective in
killing all weeds. There are no bad
after effects on the fertility or the
soil itself, and after three or four
weeks the ground is ready for plant
ing
The gas kills wilt and rot fungi,
organisms which normally have the
staying power to lie in the soil for
five or six years and still be able
to attack plants The gas is partic-
ularly effective against nematodes
which are barely visible, hair-like
organisms that cause knots on roots
and lower the vitality of plants.

Acid and Oranges

University of California scientists
find that acid soils are essential for
citrus trees. A long-continued salts
factory growth of orange trees was
found to be unlikely in soils which
are on the alkaline side. 1t has been
pointed out by other scientists that
the alkaline soil content is likely to
increase with irrigation, some alkai
settling out of the water as the lat
ter evaporates. Iron sulphate. it is
said, is now being used in place OF
aluminium sulphate for acidifying
soils. The acidity of California soils
has been proved to be higher than
previously was believed cheering
bit of news for our orange industry.

Don't Make Beds Immediately

During sleep there is an increased
rate of breakdown of the fats in the
surface of the body, and also con-
siderable insensible perspiration
which clings to the bedclothes, and
which may penetrate the mattress.
The bed needs good airing for an
hour or so each morning after it
has been occupied, in order to keep
it sweet. The first thing to do aft
er getting out of bed is to throw
the clothes completely off the mat
tress, and open the bedroom win
dows for a couple of hours. More
fresh air is needed by the bed in
the morning than by the sleeper the
night before. The mattress needs a
weekly bath in the direct sunlight.
