AIR CONDITIONED FORYOUR COMFORT

CassCASS cm

WASHINGTON. — Scientists areweighing the possibility of explod-ing an atomic bomb in the midst ofstorm clouds to create a literal rainof death.

The advantage of this technique,experts studying the plan report, isthat a city far inland could bedrenched with radioactivity withoutthe necessity of exploding a bombunder water, as was done in theBikini experiments.

Until now, coastal cities or thosenear large rivers or lakes were themost probable targets for such typeatomic bombing.

There is, however, a definite pos-sibility that the very power andheat of the bomb might foil theplan.

Some scientists contend that abomb exploded in a cloud bankmight first blast the cloud away andthen dissipate its moisture high intothe air and away from the target.

But proponents of the idea say itwould be necessary only to watchthe drift of weather toward a tar-get and select a day when rainclouds several thousand feet thickwere floating overhead. Radarwould pick up the target for thebombing plane, and the bomb wouldbe exploded in the thick of thestorm. Rain falling from the cloudswould be poisoned with the deadlyby-product of the bomb's explosion.

The use of radioactivity in thismanner would be aside from previ-ously reported plans for spraying atarget area with radioactive ma-teriar released from an airplane.

36 Factors Are Listed ';*'As Hazards in Shaving

NEW YORK.—A sharp blade isstill the prime ingredient of a goodshave, but there are 36 other factorsthat may combine to give you andyour whiskers a rough time.

After studying shaving problemsand techniques for more than 15years at the Eversharp laboratoriesand those of the Mellon Institute ofIndustrial Research, Elbridge J.Casselman says that if the timespent "cussing" razor glades weredevoted instead to proper prepara-tion of the face both tempers andchins would be smoother.

"Anyone can get a clean, painlessshave if he'll just spend from threeto five minutes preparing his face,"the expert says. "The average manjust slaps some lather on and startsshaving, probably within 30 sec-onds. He overlooks the fact thatthere are harsh, gritty particleslodged even in skins that appearclean and many of these particlesare harder than razor steel. Natur-ally they dull the razor and causepulling and scraping.

"In addition, unless oily depositsfrom the sebaceous glands are re-moved water cannot penetrate thehairs and soften them. This re-moval cannot take place withoutadequate preparation. As an indi-cation, it takes three minutes forwater to penetrate to the center ofa hair six one-thousandths of aninch in diameter and hairs of thisinch in diameter and hairs ofthis thickness are only 'medium-tough'."

Making up the 36 factors that in-fluence shaving, in addition to thecondition of the razor and blade, hesaid, are eight variables in connec-tion with facial preparation, four in-volving shaving techniques, nineconnected with day-to-day changesin the individual and 15 involvingdifferences between individuals.

NEW YORK.—New advances inthe treatment of split personalityand some other forms of insanitywere related to American Psychi-atric association at its annualmeeting.

Dr. Esther B. Tietz, Los Angelespsychiatrist, told of experimentswith electronarcosis, a means ofmaintaining unconsciousness bycontinued application of electricalcurrent.

She reported 20 treatments hadbeen given to 93 patients, and thatof the schizophrenics—those .withthe split personality—18 out of 33made complete recoveries. Ninewere able to return home to moreor less normal living; two weremoderately improved, and two un-improved. The other two failed tofinish the treatments.

In two years, Dr. Tietz said, therewere no relapses in this particulargroup of patients.

All Showed Progress.She reported that of 15 patients

treated for depression, all madeeither a complete recovery or onesufficient to enable them to carryon in a socially acceptable manner.

Dr. Tietz said many of the so-called psychosomatic complaintsdisappeared. These include head-ache, gastro - intestinal u p s e t s ,heartbeat irregularity, migraine,asthma, vague pains, loss of appe-tite and insomnia.

Electronarcosis, she said, mayoffer a short cut to treatment ofsuch disorders.

Another advance was reported byDr. William A. Horwitz and Dr.Luther B. Kalinowsky of New YorkState Psychiatric institute and hos-pital, who told of -combining insulinwith electro-shock treatment for thebest results.

Both types of treatment, theysaid, are of value in treating schizo-phrenia, but better results were ob-tained in the more serious cases byusing the combined treatment.

They treated a group of 80 pa-tients from 13 to 48 years of age be-tween July, 1942, and January ofthis year.

Many Improved.Immediately after treatment, the

doctors reported, one patient wasrecovered; 21 much improved, 29improved and 28 unimproved. Afterthree months, there was one re-covery, 17 much improved; 28 im-proved, and 40 unimproved.

The doctors said this "relativelypoor proportion" of successful re-sponses was not a measure of theefficacy of the treatment. -.,

A later checkup, the period vary-ing from six months to more thanthree years, showed 22, much im-proved, 14 improved and 42 unim-proved. Those who were ill thelongest before receiving the com-bined treatment showed the great-est tendency to relapse, they re-ported.

llnnesota Town's 30 StreetsNamed for Battlefield Herb'esAPPLETON, MINN.—Thirty men

from this small community died onbattlefields during World War II,and the town's 30 streets and av-enues have been renamed afterthem.

Citizens watched with lumps intheir throats as old signs camedown and new ones replaced them.

They were proud when old Millstreet down through the businessdistrict became Private High Milesstreet, after a boy killed in the Pa-cific.

As they walked along the oldRiverside avenue which now wasWerring avenue, they rememberedLeigh Werring and his brotherBert. Leigh Werring was an infan-try captain, killed in the Pacific,and Bert was an infantry sergeantkilled in Italy.

Irmy Must DevelopArctic Equipment

Test of Maneuvers in IlaskajDemonstrate Need. j

WASHINGTON.—The war depart-]ment said that Alaska test maneu-1vers had proved the army must d6-;velop new equipment if it expects to •be an efficient fighting force in ifrigid climates. j

Summarizing findings of task;forces "Williwaw" and "Frigid," jwhich will return soon from bases jon Adak and at Fairbanks, the de-jpartment said the equipment in- jeluded: i

A light, portable shelter sturdy'enough to stand heavy rain, fine Isnow and hurricane winds. I

A motor oil which willjiot freeze jat temperatures lower than 30 be- jlow zero. j

Clothing which is warm without jbeing too bulky to permit freedom jof movement. 1

A tundra and mountain crossing:vehicle which can carry personnel!and supplies and is sturdy enough jto need little maintenance. ;

A self-heating can for rations. jA different kind of tank from]

those used in temperate zones. /The current Armored Cavalry]

Journal quotes Col. Paul V. Kane,!who commanded "Frigid," as say-;ing flatly that tanks are "thoroughly iimpractical in the arctic." •

Critics of such armor say tanks,quickly bog down in the soft Aleu-itian tundra, the rough Alaska ter-rain immobilizes them, the lubri-jcants freeze and 60 degrees below izero seems to be the breaking point;for their crews. •

The account said Kane estimated)a man lost his efficiency at the rateiof 2 per cent for every degree underzero. One officer spent six hours in'a tank at subzero temperatures andreported his Efficiency at the end of,the period as nil. ;

Maj. Myron Johnson, tank test of-ficer of "Frigid," and Capt. GeorgeJ. Skeets, commanding Company Bof the 66th tank battalion, disagreedwith Colonel Kane. They said thepresent tank could be modified tosurmount Arctic conditions.

MANURE HANDLING is a great muscle builder for thefarmer who has no other form of exercise. You know,farmers have plenty of tough, back-breaking chores,besides pitching litter out of the barn. Today, though,this time wasting labor can be a thing of the past,thanks to the electrically powered gutter cleaner.Some barn cleaners work on an endless metal chainwhich runs in the gutter, removing litter by the con-veyor principle. They clean the barn while you dothe chores . . . needing no more than push-buttonattention for the entire operation,, Driven by a smallelectric motor, and designed for any barn, this me-chanically-simple device takes only a fraction of thetime formerly needed by the pitchfork and wheel-barrow method.

The Farm Service Advisor at your nearestEdison office will be glad to give impartialadvice on tested gutter cleaners. As a first stepin mechanizing your barn cleaning, why nothave him arrange for you to see one in oper-ation? Talk with the owner and see for yourselfhow simple and inexpensive the chore of guttercleaning can be when the man is taken out ofmanure handling.

Careless handling of manurecauses serious losses of fertilizerand organic matter needed to helpincrease crop yields and rebuild lollstructure.

One hundred tons of manure con-tains 25 tons of organic matter, 1,000pounds of nitrogen, 200 pounds ofphosphorus and 800 pounds of potash,one-half of It in the liquid part. Piledoutside and exposed to rain andweather for several months, this 100tons may shrink to 50 tons and losehalf its fertility and organic matter.Losses may be reduced by us-ing enough bedding to soak up alliiqaid manure, cleaning stalls fre-quently and hauling manure directlyto fields, or storing carefully.

Baby Rides Tractor

Those who have youngsters wholike to ride the tractor will be in-terested in this improvised babyseat designed by A. J. Matyus forthe Lincoln foundation contest.

The seat consists of two auto leafsprings, pieces of one-inch roundiron 24 inches long for stationarysteering column and an obsoletesteering wheel. The main leaveswere bent in the forge and holeswere punched to conform to the cul-tivator fittings and to give shock ab-sorbing effect. The footrest waswelded to the spring leaves. All workwas done with %-inch mild steelelectrodes.

Farmers who would boost theiryields of corn should plant thickerstands than they ordinarily do, ad-"vises University of Kentucky. Im-proved soil and the use of hybridcorn seed makes it possible formost farmers to have thickerstands. About 10,000 stalks can begrown on better-than-average land,and 12,000 to 14,000 stalks on veryfertile land with good moisture-holding capacity.

Sugar Beet Combinesto Replace 1,800 Men

About 300 mechanical sugar beetharvesters will be used in Michi-gan and Ohio this fall, handlingabout 15 per cent of the crop, ac-cording to the September SugarBeet Journal.

Approximately 170 new harvest-ers have been purchased by farm-ers this year, constituting an in-crease of 225 per cent since 1946.The recent gain in mechanical har-vesting is labeled by the publica-tion as one of the most remarkabletrends in sugar beet production inmany years, having started withone harvester in 1944, increasingto 14 in 1945, and 130 in 1946. Thisyear one acre in every seven willbe handled.by machine, replacingabout 1,800 beet workers.

The widespread acceptance ofmechanical harvesting- is attrib-uted to its speed, ease and reducedcosts. Under average conditions,65 acres can be combined per sea-son, labor requirements reduced 80per cent, and costs slashed one-half.

The more acre,s harvested perseason, and the higher the acreageyield, the less the cost per acreand per ton, the Journal says.

In addition to the monetarysavings, there are other importantfactors in favor of mechanical har-vesting, states the publication. Thecrop is taken out much more rapid-ly than when hand labor is used,resulting in a shorter harvestingperiod and more time for otherfarm operations; and there is noworry as to ,where the labor willbe procured since the farmer andhis lielp can do the job themselves,thus making them independent ofcontract labor.

state that does not have a single jmile of concrete highway. Thissort of, neglect should not be per-mitted to continue for anothergeneration."

For some time we have sensedan intangible "chip-on-the-shoul-der" attitude in the U. P. Thisregion tends to think of itself asthe underdog, the forgotten childwho is forever getting a raw deal.Such an attitude is a. natural re-action to the basic' trouble of theregion. It has been acutely ex-ploited by absentee ownership. It

resources have been stripped forthe profit of people who live else-where. Even its raw timber andores have been transported out-side the region to be convertedinto wages and stockholders profitsthrough industrial processing.

We can't agree with our Wis-consin newspaper friend that asolution of all this is .for the UpperPeninsula to secede from Michi-gan. We do feel that the regionhas a good case, because of its ex-«ploitation, for a greater share ofimprovements which will assist thelocal people to help themselves.What are the prospects in theUpper Peninsula? We would liketo discuss some of them in thiscolumn next week.

not much point in improvement ofstate parks until they are madeaccessible by good roads. Evenour two main U. P. highways con-necting the principal larger com-munities are not yet completed."

Mr. Earle adds: "All during thepast week people stopping atBlaney Park have reported havingto wait from two to four hoursto get a boat either way betweenSt. Ignace and Mackinaw City. Ap-parently, inadequacy of the ferryservice is to become a commonand chronic condition."

Frank J. Russell, Jr., editor of'the Iron Mountain News and Mar-quette Mining Journal, observes:"With the exception of US-41 andUS-2, the U. P. has nothing toboast about in the way of goodroads. For the most part the net-work of secondary roads is piti-fully inadequate and is a deter*rent to tourist travel." He pro-poses an Upper Peninsula highwayconference for coordinated, con-certed action.

Linwood L Noyes, editor of theIronwood Daily Globe, suggeststhat Gogebic and Ontonagoncounties " should work together,through their county and municipalgovernments, chambers ' of com-merce and civic organizations, toget action from the state, particu-larly on the highway situation."

Mr. Noyes concludes: "If anyadditional proof of neglect of high-ways in the western part of theUpper Peninsula is needed, it isfound in the fact that Ontonagoncounty ig the only county in the

o'clock in the forenoon, at saidProbate office, be and is herebyappointed for hearing said petition;

It is further ordered, that pub-lic notice thereof be given by pub-lication of a copy of this order,once each week for three successiveweeks previous to said day of hear-ing, in the Cass City Chronicle^ anewspaper printed and circulatedin said County.
