Q. Is there any scientific basis
for the belief that it is Injurious
to eat oysters in months whose
names exclude an "R''9
A. The common belief that oys-
tiers should not be eaten in months
not containing an RI Is not baSed
ON fact. Oysters can be, and are
being eaten throughout the year.
Oysters spawn in many places
during the summer, when the
ssR-lees" months occur After the
discharge Of their sex products
they become watery and contain
little solid meat. As rule they
lack flavor and consistency. There
are, however, several localities in
various states where oysters Of
fairly good quality are available
throughout the entire year. In
addition, Of course, modern freez-
ing teehniques make high quality
oysters available any time.

the fact that the dermatitis occurs
during the warmer months Of the

Q. How did the Dry Tortugas
get their manner
A. These islands, discovered in
1913 BY Ponce de Leon near the

TODAY'S
STOCK MARKET

NEW YORK HStock Of Mont
gomery Ward & Co. bounded up
511 more points on the New York
Stock Exchange at ME opening Of
trading today concurrent with new
rumors Of q move by industrial
ist Louis E.. WoIfsOn to buy into
the giant mail order firm.
A block Of 10000 shares changed
hands at $50 . share, up $3.50
from Fridays close, amid reports
that Wolfson, 42-year-old Floridian,
might challenge the long one-man
rule Of Wards sO-year-old board
chairman, Sewell Avery.
The new furry followed a rise
from $66.87 . share to $74.5O on the
trading Of $4,000 shares in the
previous IL trading days.
WolfsOn, who has had 4 spec
tacular rise in the financial world
and controls a number OF big con-
Germs, made himself unavailable
for comment and Ward officials
declined comment.
Avery, long a stormy petrol on
the industrial scene, owns 81, 1886
shares Of Wards but this is less
than one per cent Of the 6,70O, 900
shares outstanding.
Published reports Of the past
few days have said that Wolfson
interests purchased as much as
$4,000 shares last week and that
ne and his family hope to acquire
at least 100, 900 shares.
The reports were given added
significance by the fact that Avery
is one Of the three members Of
the nine-man board of Montgom-
cry Ward up for reelection at
next years annual meeting. Avery
must win reelection to retain con-
troll of the firm as chairman Of
the board.
The company has cumulative
voting so that q holder Of q share
Of stock can cast one vote for
each of the directorships to be
filled, or lump all his votes behind
one nominee for director. This
makes it easier for minority in
terests to elect one or more mem
bers of a board than in companies
in which only one vote is allowed
for each Vacancy.
Avery has had many rows with
fellow officers and directors over
the years but never a proxy fight
among stockholders. During his
tenure, four presidents, at least
80 vice presidents and a number
of other officials have left the firm
in disagreement over policy.
The veteran executive, head of
Ward since 1891, has maintained
a gloomy view of the nations eco.
nomic prospects since World War
II and has operated the company
along very conservative lines. It's
chief rival, Sears Roebuck, went
on an expansion spree and pulled
steadily away In sales and profits.
Sears sales rose from 81, 600.
600 in 1916 to 81, 1885,, 600, 900 in 1858,

A Mud blisters appear as

Of oysters. They are caused by
d worm, PoIydoraciliate, which
swims into the oyster when the
valves are open for feeding. After
gaining entrance, the worm Sc.
cures a favorable position in the
shell and within short time has
collected 4 blob 0f mud around
itself. The oyster Immediately
begins to secrete q chitinsiike la.

within 4 day OF two the mud and
the chitinous layer are covered
with nacre tmother Of pearl).
The worm, meanwhile, con-
structs two canals to the outside.
Oysters secrete nacre whenever
the mantle Of the animal is irrita-
ted. This is taken advantage of
in raising cultured pears.
Small glass beads are carefully
inserted between the shell and the
mantle. Naere is secreted around
this foreign matter and a cultur-
ed pearl is manufactured.
