SD X-Ray Motion Pictures For Medical Research Shown To Surgeons

ROCHESTER, NY. The first public showing in the United States outside of Rochester of three e-dimensional X-ray motion pictures used for medical diagnosis and research will be held at the 18th annual congress of the US. and Canadian sections of the In ternational College of Surgeons at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, New York City, Sept. 14-17.
 The unique stereoscopic X-ray motion pictures were developed at the University of Rochester medical school. The SD X-ray motion pictures permit a new vis- ual perception of living anatomy. X-ray shadows are converted into three-d -dimensional images permit ting the observer to look through the entire thickness of the body, visualizing it's living, moving con- tents in their normal relation ships, The single projector meth cd developed by the Rochester researchers uses only single strip of film to throw two images on a screen simultaneously through two lenses and a mirror system. The projection screen is viewed through polaroid glasses.

logic make up of the locality where the course is being offered and the stress is on the minerals of economic importance which oc- cur in the district. Every student learns how to pan gold and how to identify the most common min erals in his locality. Instruction is given in the use of prospector's tools such as the mineralight and the geiger counter. This year geo. chemical prospecting methods have been added.
 Every student who satisfactorily completes the four-week course will receive a certificate of rec ognition from the University of Alaska.
 Preparatory reading material is suggested: Field Book of Com mon Rocks and Minerals" by Loomis; Handbook for Prospec- tors and Operators of Small Mines," by VonBernowitz; "Pros- pecting for Gold and Silver" by Savage; and Operating Small Gold Placers," by Boericke.

Mining Extension Course Again
 To Be Offered By u. Of Alaska

The tentative schedule of the University of Alaska's Mining Ex- tension courses was announced recently by Earl H. Beistline, Dean of the School of Mines.
 The month-long "Prospector' School" began in Kotzebue Mon day, and will next be offered in Nome, Anchorage, Kodiak, Val dez, Ketchikan, and Juneau.
 Established in 1885 by act of the territorial legislature, the purpose of the mining extension course is to instruct Alaska's prospective prospectors. The course consists of a series of interesting lectures, laboratory work which stresses mineral identification, and field trips which aid in the recognition of geologic features.
 Instruction is free and is given in the evening for the convenience of those who work during the day. No formal education is required and any person over 16 years of age may attend.
 The lectures themselves are varied somewhat to suit the geo.

Russia Proposes Conferences On Germany & World

PARIS, R-The Soviet Union came up Tuesday with two pro- posals for interpational confer ences-a Big Four meeting on Germany and a five-power meet ing including Red China to discuss the entire problem of world ten sions.
 The two proposals were con- tained in the latest Soviet reply to invitations from the United States, Britain and France to meet on Oct. Is at Lugano, Switzerland, in a conference on the German and Austrian treaties.
 In neither case did the Russians suggest a date or place for the meetings.
 There was nothing especially new in the Soviet proposals. The Russians have asked before that the subject of Germany be dealt with before consideration of a treaty of independence for Aus tria. They have also proposed a meeting of the four powers and Red China to discuss full slate of world problems. The Western powers have not gone along with either side.

Many Varieties Suitable.

With good drainage, a mulch
and protection from aphids, lilies
will thrive and gain in size. It
is not uncommon to find three
or more bloom stalks coming
from where a single bulb was
planted three or four years ago.
If the flower stalks are small it
may mean either too much ex-
posure to wind or that they are
getting crowded and the bulbs
should be lifted. the soil re-
worked and replanted. This
chore should be done when the

Avoid Planting
Trees Too Deep,
Experts Advise

The biggest pitfall to avoid in
planting trees this fall is not to
plant them too deep.
A survey just conducted by
tree experts showed that of the
thousands of trees planted in
new subdivisions in recent years
deep planting and mounding the
soil around the trunks were the
most common mistakes.
This results in improper aera-
ton Of the roots. slower growth
and eventual decline. Even eight
years after planting some of the
trees failed to show normal but
tressing of the trunk as it enters
the soil line.
Dogwoods suffer most from
deep planting. Yet in many
areas pin oaks, which normally
adjust themselves readily, show
serious damage from improper
planting. Best guide is to plant
a tree at the same depth-not
over an inch deeper-as it grew
in the nursery.
Other common mistakes in
tree planting revealed by the
survey were:
Planting trees too close to
houses, sidewalks and drives.
Trees need room for both crown
and root growth as they mature.
Moving trees with insufficient
soil around roots. Evergreens,
hollieS, birches, beecheS, oaks,
dogwoods, sugar naples, sweet
gums, sourwood and tulip trees
should always be transplanted
with a ball of earth. The ball
should be at least 10 times the
diameter of the trunk.
Improper post = transplanting
care. Even little transplated
trees should be prevented from
drying out and shielded from in
jury to root bark and crown.

Avoid loss Of roots at time Of
digging
It is difficult to say which
kinds of lilies are best for the
Washington area. The late DR..
E. c. Powell grew a great many
kinds and varieties so that his
garden display began in the
spring with the dainty little

ended in late summer with some
Of the newer hybrids. However.
as was pointed out above, the
Regal and Regal hybrids are
probably. the most dependable.
Many gardeners save their Easter
lilies and plant them in the gar
den for outdoor use. The old
fashioned Tiger is still very much
worthwhile and the lovely Ma
donna is an easy one to grow. In
addition to these, many garden
ers grow the Speciosum (alba,
'rubra and roseum), Elegans or
thunbergianum. Henryi, Philip
pinensis, as well as some of the
natives. Many gardeners at
tempt to grow the snowy Gold
Band, one of the most striking
boomers Of them all, but it is
difficult to procure disease-free
bulbs and they seldom last more
than one season. However, they
are worthwhile even for that one
blooming.

Don't Burn Leaves,
Make Compost,
Experts Advise

Many home owners have
money to burn this fall, and
that's just what they're doing.
When setting fire to fallen
autumn leaves, they might as
well be igniting dollars, accord
ing to experts.
For grounded leaves are valu-
able assets to lawns, trees and
shrubbery.
And the smoke signals sent up
from leaf piles throughout the
Nation spell out the warning
word: Waste"
Those home owners who save
the leaves gain one of the finest
types of garden humus for nour-
iShing soil.
Raked into a pile and devel-
oped as compost, the leaves pro-
duce high-grade lawn and gar
den top dressing.
If a compost heap is not de-
sired, many leaves can be used
as a mulch around evergreen or
other plants that like some win
ter protection. And folks with
power-driven leaf pulverizers
may simply plow into the leaves
and cut them up into tiny bits
that soon add to the soil humus.
Bonfires, beides destroying
potential soil humus, have a way
of broiling the branches of near
by or overhanging trees. A
bright, hot fire may look fine in
the autumn twilight, but it can
result in trees that are badly
damaged.

This Week in the Garden

The drought still continues
and the trees are shedding their
leaves, especially the shallow
rooted kinds, as though we had
had killing frost. Dry soils
are also delaying fall transplant
ing and planting for both the
home gardener and the nursery
man. Undoubtedly this will dis
appoint many who had hoped to
get much work done this fall. 1t
is possible to take chances with
late planting, and the chances
will be greatly lesSened if ample
quantities of compost or peat
moss are worked into the soil
before planting. Also, a thick
mulch of leaves, compost, or
other materials should be applied
to keep the soil from freezing
as long as possible. A further
measure is to erect a screen or
cover which will keep the newly
planted evergreens from giving
off more moisture than the roots
can supply. Protection from win
ter winds and sun will greatly
reduce transpiration-the loss of
moisture through the leaves.
It is time to plant pansies.
Set them out where they are to
flower. They are inexpensive
when purchased and planted at
this season and they will provide
a mass of bloom in the early
spring as we'll as a wealth of
bloom for picking. Set the
plants 10 to IL inches apart in
a well-prepared bed. Compost,
well-rotted manure, and two to
three pounds of commercial fer
tilizer per 100 square feet of bed
should be mixed into the soil
before planting. The plants ben
eft from a mulch applied before
the ground freezes. Do not cover
the foliage.
Italian, common or annual
ryegraSs as it is variously called,
makes an excellent temporary
lawn. Sow the seed in a ferti-
lized bed at the rate of five or six
pounds of seed per 1000 square
feet. Rake the seed into the soil.

early spring-fiowering bulbs may
be had with a row of cloth-of-

maximum show the first year
space the bulbs two or three
inches apart.
For the first time in several
years the roses that won top hon.
ors at the Potomac Rose Society's
fall rose show were new to most
gardeners. Paramount, a lovely
orange blend, was first; Noe
turne, a dark red, second, and
Numa Fay. a pink blend, was
third. All have been on the mar
ket for several years, but they
are new to most gardeners. The
introductions of the past year or
two failed to achieve top honors.
The cool nights and warm
days have worked havoc in rose
gardens, judging by the foliage
showing mildew injury at the
rose show. In most years mil
dew is not problem of the rose
grower, but this year it has been
bad. Sulphur is considered the
most readily available effective
material for the control of mil
dew.
The late blight of tomatoes
has not been reported in this
area to date. This is the first
time in five years tomatoes have
been free Of this killing disease.
The Potomac Rose Society had
a significant sign posted near the
entrance of their fall rose show
1.-THE Potomac Rose Society
does not recommend the blue
rose" The blue rose is an old
variety, Veilchenblau, that is
supposed to be a bright crimson
but quickly turns to a peculiar
shade of blue approaching ma
genta." This last quote is from
