Show MILLARD COUNTY CHRONICLE, DELTA, UTAH Oldest I Duck Hunter Found WARE, MASS. Game Warden Franklin Graves claims he's found the oldest duck hunter in the United States. Graves made his discovery while on duty on Cape Cod. Coming upon a man crouched in a blind, Graves asked the old fellow how he was doing. "Poorly," was the reply, "but my father's doing right well." A short distance away with a rapidly filling bag of ducks was the father, William Swan of Reading age 100. 'IO Pi ! V-- r :f tinui A1IUN BOSS . Kan J.

Where a deficiency exists, a test will indicate how much lime your soil needs. County agricultural agents, vocational agri-cultural teachers or agronomists at state colleges and experiment sta-tions are glad to cooperate in making such tests. Testing is always the safest course in applying lime. Some soils have plenty lime. Adding more might be harmful rather than help-ful to crop production. CT? YOU DON'T NEED A ( ( CRYSTAL BALL TO FIND i OUT THE FEOTIUTY OF YOUR 60IL ' I" To soils that need it, lime is the keystone of any d soil building program. Lime adds needed calcium. Lime boosts the efficiency if fertilizers. It neutralizes acid soils and makes possible the growth of sweet clover and alfalfa. These deep-roote- d legumes add precious organic matter to the soil. But lime by itself cannot do the whole soil building job. It has to be supported by the generous use of phosphate and potash fertilizers, by plowing under deep-roote- d legumes, by the return to the soil of all possible animal manure and crop residues. zl p I y : ty - ;f ' A fgjf - - WATCH II, MR. . . .

Woman Heating Home With Device Trapping Heat From Sun's Rays DOVER, MASS. Dr. Maria Tel-ke- s heats her home with an glass and metal de-vice that traps the sun's rays for her "solar house." The rest of the heating system consists of a cheap chemical unit that Dr. Telkes de-veloped in experiments at the Massachusetts Institute of Tech-nology. The pioneer model cost about $3,000 to install but Dr. Telkes ex-pects it to operate indefinitely without additional expense. There are other benefits besides the end of fuel .bills, she says. No fire hazards. No coal or oil shortages. No transportation tie-up- And no or me-chanical breakdowns. , To find out whether the unit will heat the house during the cold weather, she will live in her five-roo-home during the winter without any other source of heat. She won't pronounce the expert-- 1 ment a success until she's been through the bitterest part of the winter. From the heat trap built Into the south side of Dr. Telke's house, the solar warmth is conducted to a se-ries of "heat bins." Each bin con-tains an inexpensive chemical com-pound known as sodium sulfate dekahydrate. When the chemical is warmed, it melts and absorbs heat. When it solidifies. It releases the beat. A theromstatic control system is connected to each bin which in turn is hooked up to warm air registers. When the thermostat is adjusted to raise the house tem-perature, stored heat is released from the chemical and wafted into the rooms via the registers. Dr. Telkes said the chemical can store heat up for ten days. TRAGEDT FORGOTTEN NEW LIFE AHEAD . . . It's haro to be-lieve that this smiling, pretty five-ye- old Is the little girl who was hurled, by ber father, from the rail of 125-fo- high Kosciusko bridge, In New York, on January 7.

They do this slowly, yet the pro-cess of microbial combustion of such materials may have disastrous effects on a crop planted soon after plowing, in which case it is said the crop was "burned out." Microbes need more than energy "go" foods. They need the "grow" foods, too, just as humans do. They do not demand that the nitrogen be given them in the complete proteini or the more complex compounds of this element as humans do; never-theless, they are just as exacting in their needs for nitrogen, at least. In its simpler forms. Dr. William A. Albrecht, chairman of the department of soils, Univer-sity of Missouri college of agricul-ture, in discussing how soil microbes get their food, points out that they get it before growing crops get theirs.

Ol 120,000 forced workers in uranium mines operated by Russia near the Bavarian-Czec- h border, at least 0 are women according to a young German who escaped and reached Frankfort. Emil Walter, formerly employed on the police force of his home town of Halle, said that In October one of the ferqaent explosions oc-curring in these mines asphyxiated 290 of 300 laborers underground at Johann Georgenstadt. They were promptly replaced by the same number of individuals from trans-ports arriving constantly. Administrative offices for the mines are in Aue, Herr Walter stated. The prisoners are distrib-uted through pits in Annaberg, Niederschlema, Oberschlema and Johann Georgenstadt, working eight hours daily under the worst possible conditions. Although earning 600 to 700 East marks monthly, he declared, they are not only charged for their scanty food but also must contrib-ute to the Russian supervisors, leaving them net earnings for the year of from 120 to 700 East marks. Espionage on the part of Soviet agents scattered through the camps exaggerates difficulties for the workers, ,a large number oi whom were arrested for refusing to join the Social Unity party as in his own case. v jA 5 HEL1J AS SP Mrs. Anna Louise Strong, above, old American writer, bas been ar-rested by the Russians on charges of espionage and sub-versive activities against the Soviet onion.

S. Scientists Sutter Radiation Effects NEWTON, MASS. Radiation from g cyclotrons has almost blinded several American scientists, according to Dr. Shields Warren, head of the medical de-partment of the atomic energy commission. "About five" scientists, whom he did not name, apparently had de-veloped cataracts of the eye as a result of the effects of radiation on the lens, he declared yesterday. However, he stressed, that "there is no evidence at the present time that they were working on the im-mediate problems of atomic en-ergy." For safety's sake, Dr. Warren said, the commission is checking to determine if any of the scien-tists had been engaged in work other than university or similar projects which might involve proximity to atomic piles. He emphasized that there was considerably more danger of radia-tion leakage in research involving cyclotrons than in the atomic pro-jects of the United States govern-ment and its contractors where, h addel, "the hazards, as far as w can tell from present experience are extermely slight." Livestock Sanitation Gets Credit for Avian TB Curb Professor F. E. Mussehl of the University of Nebraska poultry hus-bandry department credits the work of the U. S. livestock sanitation as-sociation with doing much to re-duce losses from avian tuberculosis. The livestock sanitation group comes into the picture, he explains, because avian tuberculosis was quite often found responsible for condemnation of hogs. Swine reten-tions for tuberculosis are lwer. |
