WASH ISC, TONT ( A I') Science, htoking forward to a day of over pop ti la t inn and depleted food re sources, is turning to the sea for future, exploitation. Progressive experiments of tho bureau of fisheries are demon strating the value of foods of ma rine animal origin, indirectly or immediately, for human consump tion. Whether man eats marine life or lives on animals that feed oh fish ery products, the benefits will be John H. Manning, associate tech nologist. "Take milk, for Instance," h said. "It has been shown through numerous biological analyses by various scientific investigators that cow's milk under ordinary condi tions is deficient In such dietary necessities as vitamins C, V and K, iron and Iodine. . "Biochemists have established that it Is possible to Incrense not only the vitamin content, hut that of calcium, iodine and Iron by in ns great, aeeordlng to studies of eluding in tho rations such marine foods that contain the deficient minerals. An analysis uf milk given by cows fed fish meal showed that tho lodino content alono in creased between 10 and 15 times.' Crab scrap, a by-product made from non-edible waste of tho crab industry, has been found to be an excellent poultry food, he. said. In preliminary feeding tests, scrap in cluded in a month's ration doubled egg production. A vast program of cooperative feeding tests in collaboration with various bureaus and agencies of the department of agriculture, state experiment stations, and uni versities, has been outlined to de tenu (no the nutritive value of feeds of marine animal origin. Besides tests of various fish meals for their potency, mineral content, and vitamin supplies, re search will hp conducted on tho' value of dried seaweed, a vast source, of, organic Iodine, shrimp bran, and the nutritive properties? of fish liver oils. i "Wo expect to get flattering re-' suits," Manning said. "Sea water contains at least 3 4 elements uuo-i ful to life." News far tho Ki d diet 1 "A milder form nf punishment may he ripht for pcsttfvo chil dren.' writes n subscriber of Farm nml 1'lreide.

Koine combining of spring sowed whuul has been dune during the past week and according to rs ))oi'lH from some of the farms the yield being secured is not vor heavy. The greater part of the v inter wheat in this end of tho valley which has been threshed is said to have run between liO and ;ui bushels per acre with an occas ional field dulnrf slightly better. Nearly all of the grain is shriveled some extent and this It is be- many to have caused a vera I bushels per acre In the yields. Gunner Curlson who farms in the valley about live miles east of town reports the best yield in this section from a ait acre field hjI' 40-foUl grown on dry land, this tract is said to have produced 4 'A I-- bushels of wheat per acre. Giles riass moved his threshing outfit to the K. J. Conner farm on Whiskey creek the first ut the week and was busy threshing then, the greater part of the. week. Mr. Conner's wheat is said to have run in the neighborhood of li5 bu- shels per acre. .Some of the thres- ermen say that the straw is ro dry that it is difficult to do a clean job of threshing without allowing , part of the light grain to go over in the straw. The. season has been an exceptionally good one for har vesting with combines tho grain In most fields has ripened up very quickly and there has been but lit tle wuiling for the grain to get ready to cut since harvest first SLarteu. usoorn tv jMigusu w no i J. 11.
