Sheppard is growing several of these plants in pots aboard the yacht. He has found that, to be effective, the plant must be at least five or six months old. However, it will live potted for two or three years. Insects dont just die from the plant itself because of any poison, he explained. Instead, they seem to kill themselves against windows, trying to get out of the room. said. r Washington. Scattered remains of the earliest known members of the order of life to which modern man belongs have been discovered in central Montana by three scientists who in succession spent nearly thirty years eiploring a wooded paradise of 70,000,000 years ago, according to a report issued by the Smithsonian institution. Only teeth and jaws of these creatures have been found and only a paleontologist, the report says, could recognize their relationship to the monkeys, apes and humans of today. Tiny creatures, hardly larger than mice, they lived in trees of the ancient forest region just east of the Crazy mountains, according to Dr. George Gaylord Simpson of the American Museum of Natural History, author of the report. No claim is made that the little animals were in the direct ancestral line of present-da- y primates. It is belierod that they were of an earlier general and still unknown stock from which man also derived. Reptiles Eat Animals. The branch of life in question apparently became extinct after the Paleocene age, and signs indicate many of the animals were devoured by large crocodile-lik-e reptiles which were the dominant creatures of their period. The explorations were begun in 1008 by Albert C. Silberling of the United States geological survey, and a large collection of all sorts of specimens was made. Investigation . was continued by the late James W. Gid ley of the National museum staff and continued after his death in 1931 by Dr. Simpson. Dr. Simpsons report is based largely on the extensive' Smithsonian collection of the fossils from the Crazy mountain . area. Although only four or five skulls and no complete skeleton exists in the collection, Dr. Simpson states that one of the types discovered seems to combine various fundamental features of the the lemurs and tarisoids, the latter now represented only in the East Indian tarsius. Early Animal Life. Some scientists hold the view that the primate branch which eventually produced man budded off from d the main primate stock in the semi-comple- te pseudo-monkey- s, tar-sioi- stage. The report discloses the discovery also of remains of animals related to bears and to such insectivores of today as shrews and moles, as well as discovery of probably the earliest i beginnings of the family now represented by horses, cattle, deer and bison. In the earliest strata of the Crazy mountain formation, according to the report, are found fragments of animals at least 50,000,000 years old and entirely different from any known today. These are the which at one time constituted the most abundant form of mammal life. The collection from this area includes the finest single specimen yet discovered, the report states, skull, jaws and partial skeleton of one of the email rodent-lik- e animals. multi-tuberculat- multi-tubercula- o i i t Gulfport, Miss.

There is a long seaboard to the north and east extending 245 miles, while the land boundary to the south and wgst measures 200 miles. The waters of the southern portion of the coast are shallow, but the eastern and northeastern shores are flanked by the deep North channel, and good natural harbors are found in many places. Three estuaries those of the Lagan, Foyle and New-r- y rivers run for considerable distances inland, and so greatly facilitate trading with the hinterland. The Lagan estuary is the principal goods port for Belfast and for an extensive inlying district. Topographically, Northern Ireland is chiefly hilly or rolling country, the highest levels being reached in the Mourne mountains in the south, where the greatest height is 2,796 feet above sea level. The country as a whole is famed for the wide diversity of its natural scenery, ranging from the loveliness of Lough Erne and the Glens of Antrim to the rugged grandeur of the Gaint's Causeway and the Coast road from Larne to Portush. .a one-six- th th st - st in cattle-raisin- g as its done in the two automobiles while he worked in deep South are finger waves for the garage of the A.

Upon her death she was succeeded by James VI of Scotland, who became the first British king, and was thereafter known as James I, founder of the house of Stuart.
