animals. 1t Is present in ALL tissues.
1t Is a necessity OF life, But 1t is
not by any stretch OF the imagina-
ton food, even though 1t is a
nitroeenous compound
Only the cows can eat it. and
that. as shown by the Wisconsin
experiments, Is due to the four
stomachs OF this ruminant. 1t was
the famous Wisconsin COW with the
window in her stomach which made
possible the success of the urea
feeding experiments
From her stomach the Wisconsin
scientists took frequent samples and
so found out what mixtures of urea
and other feeds were successful.
After they had learned that cows
could make urea, the Wisconsin
workers. E. B. Hart, I. w. Rupel and
Gus Bohstedt. spent years on the
more difhcult Job of learning
whether the meat and milk still
were perfect. That is the phase
completed and Just announced at
Madison.
First they tried the qualities of
the beef of bulls fed on urea. BY
all nutrition tests. this meat was
good, Milk and milk products, too,
were good. But would lactation and
production of calves be affected?
To answer that satisfactorily has
taken the last three years. A herd
of ~ cows, fed on urea. has per
formed as well as when they ate
only the finest of standard feeds.
Mixed With Other Food.
The urea is mixed with hay, silage
and grain There may be other
equally good or better mixtures, but
to date none has been found. For
example. feeding just timothy hay
and urea failed. That was a hard
disappointment, because 1t would
have been q ridiculously cheap cat
tie feed.
On the other hand, when the ra-
ton contains large amounts OF high
quality protein, the urea is wasted.
The economic uses of urea come
In whenever protein feeds exceed
s29 or $50 ton and when urea can
be bought for $40 ton. Much
less urea is required than of other
protein feeds At present, due to
war, the current price of urea is $50.
But in times of rising feed costs
and particularly after the war when
the synthetic urea plants look for
new customers, the cows will bene-
fit and the world may be on its way
to new dietary regime.

CHICAGO, Aug. 1S.-Wheat prices
registered fresh gains OF almost =

market responded to renewed de-
mand which brokers said came from
professional dealers and possibly a
few mills.
Reports from the Northwest spring
wheat belt indicating weather is still
none too favorable for maturity OF

attracted most attention and there
was talk that lodging of wheat on
the ground and other weather dam
age might reduce yield in some 10
calities, Warm. dry weather is
needed, experts said, to speed the
late crop to maturity and to permit
harvesting, which Is well behind
schedule in certain areas.
A wet harvest this season might
prove to be serious. crop experts
pointed out. because OF the scarcity
of storage space. However, farmers
were understood to be making every
effort to hold grain back in the
country in view OF the hight Gov
ernment loan rates. The discount
Of wheat prices at Minneapolis under
these rates is the widest Of any

Treasury Sees
Ban on Silver
For JeweIr
z, tie Associated Press.

The Treasury has uncovered . sit
uation which, Secretary Morgenthau
said. made it doubtful whether there
would be any more silver available
for jewelry. silverware or other non-
war uses for the duration.
Treasury experts said, however.
that the industry was working on
some possibilities.
They explained that priorities
prevent non-war users from getting
any more imported silver, which
costs IS cents an ounce In con-
trast to American-mined silver,
which the Treasury is required by
law to buy at I'LL cents an ounce.
The Treasury has made it pos
sible for American miners to sell
some of this higher cost silver to
industry through some technical
postponements In delivery dates on
silver already sold to the Treasury.
This will enable some mines to sell
to industry the silver that they
have technically sold to the Treas
ury. and make good their contracts
with the Treasury out of future
production.
However, Treasury experts said,
many manufacturers could not use
71-cent silver without raising the
prices Of the jewelry. silverware or
other items. Present price regu-
lations prohibit this. and the In
dustry is seeking permission. to
charge higher prices.

were launched by chaplaincy forces.
One called for the creation Of .
separate Navy chaplains' bureau. A
group Of religious leaders represent
ing the General Commission On
Army and Navy Chaplains conferred
with Secretary Of the Navy Knox
and Admiral Randall Jacobs, chief
Of the Bureau Of Naval Personnel,
and pointed out that while the
Army, through It's chaplaincy, is
doing effective religious work, the
Navy Is far behind.
The present Navy chaplains' set
up, according to the church leaders,
does not give adequate recognition
to the dignity and importance" of
the religious life Of men in the serv-
ice. The church delegation ex-
pressed the opinion that the great
difficulty being experienced in OBJ
tanning an adequate number Of
qualified candidates for the chap
laincy "is in no small degree con-
nected with the present organisation
Of the Navy chaplaincy."
The General Commission on Army
and Navy Chaplains also wants an
inclusive and united Protestant pro-
gram for men in the armed forces
similar to that existing for Roman
Catholic chaplains in the Holy Name
Society. It adopted . recommends
ton to that effect and agreed that
the united program should work
through the general commission, the
Federal Council Of Churches, the
Worlds Christian Endeavor Union
and the International Council Of
Religious Education.
This week, also, An outstanding
civilian chaplain made q proposal to
aid the national effort. The Rev.
Francis J. Lane, president Of the
National Association of Prison
Chaplains, urged that 100, 900 able
bodied men now serving sentences
In American prisons as first Offend
ers be drafted for service in the
armed forces or for war work.
Holding that first offenders would
make excellent soldiers because they
are already well-disciplined and CO.
operative. Father Lane recon-
mended that al taboos be cast aside
In difference to the country's need
for lighting men.
