Y. Scientific triumphs of the future from production of super men to the conquest of cos mic rays were forecast here at the annual dinner of the National Academy of Sci ences. When mankind has banished wars science may hope for so ambitious a project as an international earth shaft 10 or 12 miles deep, said Dr. Arthur C. Parker, director of the Rochester Museum of Arts and Sci ences. Such a shaft, far beyond present depth to which the earth has been probed, will enable eden tisis to study earth structure down where the mysterious cosmic rays have no influence. There, man can find out what it is like to avoid these cosmic bullets that bombard the earth from space. When we get under the earth's skin, said Dr. Parker, we may pos sibly find that the cosmic ray is the sperm of life. Romance in the Research, Calling the study of hormones, secreted within the body, a challenge, Dr. Parker said: There is practical romance in this research for it means that the biologist of the future will have controls within his grasp that can or the produce the super-ma- n but, whether man or worm an will depend upon what derivative of cholesterol the uses. One can imagine also what effect the use of this substance will have upon the writer of Action. He will analyze the love between the man and the maid. She was Ailed with C27H450H, the writer will say, and he was energized by liberal amounts of C19H30O2, which my dear readers, is so powerful that It sprouts combs on capons, so you can see what it did to our hero.

The plant breeder often produces trees with superb quality of fruit, but with poor yield, poor resistance to pests, disease or harsh climate, and worst of all, dwarf growth habits. Would Use Growth Hormones. At this point Dr. Went proposes to use growth hormones, which are potent organic chemical compounds that may happen to be missing In the case at hand. He considers it not impossible that a vegetable dwarf of choice quality may be led to develop to unprecedented size.

In length, fineness, and strength of its fiber Australian wool is unsurpassed. Life on the Sheep Range A sheep ranch is a complete community in itself. It usually has its own post office, telegraph station, and power plant. Although not on the sumptuous scale of some of the palatial residences of the Argentine pampa many of these commodious station homes surrounded by flowering gardens are perfect in every appointment and convenience. In some respects they are the Australian equivalent of old English manors. Beyond each central residence is clustered a full complement of barracks and houses for the station bands and families; also stables, blacksmith and machine shops; laundry, butchery, and bakery. And g those are the long con rugated-irowoolsheds and stock pens. Life is unhurried in these nerve centers of the countrys chief industry. The manager seldom assigns Coastal Belts Are Fertile.

Except for length, however, it is no Mississippi Its drainage area is much smaller and much of the water is lost before it reaches the main channel. Where American pioneers in their westward march from the Alleghenies progressively found fertile lands awaiting their plows, Australian pioneers were baffled by sterile inland areas where they could find not even water to drink. Lakes that were only colossal salt pans; rivers that were dry or stagnant with brine; and vast rocky and sandy wastes such were the reports that Sturt, Eyre, Stuart and other Australian explorers brought back from the interior where their parties had suffered untold privations and harrowing hardships.

Unlike fertilizers, the hormones are applied only in extremely dilute form. For example, the rare chemical indoleacetic acid, which has exhibited high hormone potency, may be mixed with as much as 10,-0parts of water for use in soaking cuttings which one wishes to root rapidly and vigorously. Hormone application has reference to certain cases where it is not practical to propagate a plant from seed. Such varieties are of course commonly grafted or budded upon robust seedling plants. Unfortunately the graft junction often seems to constitute at least a partial barrier who said: We must look ahead for the true to growth hormones which should passing regularly from root to answer, though I am well aware be tree-toAs a result many grafted that some psychologists will say are somewhat dwarfed.
