WASHINGTON. - Research has helped modernize the village smithy almost out of business, but it is bringing back his spreading chestnut chest-nut tree. At the agriculture department, G. F. Gravatt, who mourns the passing of the chestnut as much as we would the mighty man of Longfellow's poem, said the plant industry bureau has developed a hybrid which resists the devastating blight that by 1937 had overrun almost all the nation's chestnut forests. The most successful blend so far, Gravatt added, is one that Is three-quarters three-quarters Chinese chestnut and one-quarter one-quarter American. ' New Dlantines Of this hvhrirt nr being pushed here and in the Missis. sippi valley as far south as Oklahoma. Okla-homa. Commercial nurseries are not able to meet the demand for straight Chinese chestnut trees, which are almost as good. The hybrid hy-brid will not be available commer-cially commer-cially for several years. Gravatt said that experiments indicated in-dicated that chestnut orchards eventually would flourish again east of the Mississippi river. The dreaded blight came from Asia in Japanese Chestnut trees, the department's pathologists believe. it was first discovered in 1904 around New York City and three years later the government got to work trying to find a way of stop-ping stop-ping it. By 1910, the blight had desolated cnestnut forests in New Jersey and around New York City. It spread in we next 10 years over ivrassa. chusetts, eastern Pennsylvania and inio eastern Ohio and West Vir-ginia. Vir-ginia. Ten years more took it to central Illinois, midway across Kentucky and Tennessee and into the Caro-linas, Caro-linas, Georgia and Mississinni then, the blight has wherever there are chestnut trees east of the Mississippi river. lhe nut of the Chinps rhoctm.i Is larger than the American, but not quite so sweet," Gravatt said. lnere is just a little enmethino missing a little something that is nara to describe."

Seven thousand-odd thousand-odd ex-G.I.s, attending a surplus automobile sale here, waived their priorities to permit a blind former comrade in arms topur-chase topur-chase a station wagon he needed to set up a business. The blind veteran, Claude J. Bedenbough of Lake City, Fla., held a priority near the bottom of the list, and under War Assets administration rules of first to apply, ap-ply, first served, had little chance of getting the station wagon. . His former buddies acclaimed their waivers, and only a personal plea by Bedenbough prevented them from taking up a collection to purchase the automobile for him. Everyone a Mail Man in Some Parts of the Australian Bush SYDNEY. AUSTRAT.TA t parts of the Australian bush letters are carried by strange "mailmen" .often by tradesmen and even by passing strangers. Almost every traveler in the outback out-back has had the experience of being be-ing asked to deliver a letter. Sometimes letters are left on a cleft stick or under a stone with a "marker" and the next man takes it along. In the bush a letter is a sacred trust born out of the com-radeship com-radeship of pioneer days. In the artesian water belt of southwest Queencland people often talk of news traveling by "bore aram cable." The phrase has the same mean.-ing mean.-ing as "bush teleeraDh" a of news that has arrived swiftly and mysteriously but is often true. " In some districts the term has another meaning which may point to the origin of the first. A message in a jam tin will float miles along a well-kept ditch carry, ing water from a bore until stopped by a piece of wire netting set there for that purpose. On one occasion a police trooper troop-er stayed overnight with a man sus-pected sus-pected of being a cattle thiof The policeman talked most of the night so that the suspect had no chance of slipping off to warn ac-complices. ac-complices. But while he talked a letter had been floating bore drain to tell of his arrival and evidence was destroyed. and highly important data about 1 cosmic rays and the earth's com-: com-: position. i Prof. p. . Lukisky, well-known ! physicist and research expert, was credited with the atomic disintegra-; disintegra-; tion discovery. A brief article in 'the Communist party newspaper ; Pravda, quoted Dr. S. I. Vavilov, president of the Soviet Academy ol Sciences, as saying that Lukisky had found "a new kind of disintegration of atomic nuclei." What the Term Means. Atomic disintegration is a term generally used to describe the emis-i emis-i sion of radioactive rays from ! atoms. The Russians apparently .made no claim concerning atom splitting or of discovering the "know-how" which would enable ; them to manufacture an atom bomb. Details of Lukisky's experiments were not published. ,' Lukisky is known to be an expert on so-called heavy electrons, and has been instructing a number of ooviei scientists now working on i atomic research. I The Pravda announcement said he ihad been nominated to fill one of the five newly-created chairs in theoretical theo-retical and experimental physics in the Soviet Academy of Sciences. Also nominated for one of the chairs was D. V. Skobeltsyn, described, de-scribed, by the academy president as the discoverer of many new aspects of cosmic rays. Skobeltsyn, through experiments !with the Wilson camero, discovered a new appearance in the emission of fiositive electrons by a radioactive radio-active substance, and "educated a big school of specialists on the atomic atom-ic kernels and cosmic rays," Vavilov Vavi-lov said. Currents Probe Earth. I Data on the earth's composition Iwas obtained, through probing by electrical currents to a distance of 1 19.8 miles, a new record, according to an announcement by Prof. B. N. Yanobsky of Leningrad university. ; Yanobsky said that the previous record was believed to be 7.5 miles, established by a French scientist. ! The experiments are expected to contribute materially to the locating locat-ing of minerals hidden in the earth's vast depths. The London News Chronicle reported re-ported from Istanbul, Turkey, that the Russians were building a "gigantic "gi-gantic atomic energy project" near xne tiiack sea port of Sukhum. Ian Bevan, a correspondent quoting quot-ing "travelers arriving" in Istanbul, Istan-bul, wrote that the project was being be-ing carried on secretly in a mountainous moun-tainous region close to Europe's highest peak the 18,463 foot Mount Elbruz. use a cord by putting it under a rug where it will be stepped on and worn, or hang it over a nail, or run it through a doorway where it can be pinched. Such misuse may easily eas-ily start a fire. 3ZSEXI Stimulates Egg Laying At one time it was thought that lights increased egg production in the winter months due to a longer day which gave the hens more time to eat. Later research has shown that the increased production is due to the lights stimulating the pituitary pitu-itary glands of the chickens through the eyes, and this in turn stimulates stimu-lates activities of the egg-producing organs.
