If the statements in an article in Wednesday's Oregoman prove true and tnat paper gives tnem serious endorsement ur. j,ecK- enly, head of the branch experi mental station of the Oregon Ag- rricultural College .rt. Union, has coaxed from ' Nature a - secret which she has refused to divulge to scientists and chemists - who have sought to beguile her ever since old Louis Jacques Mande Daeuerre himself made his first photographic reproduction and oseph Niepce discovered the first sensitive plate. ; . : Photograpns have always been untrue as regards color. vine violet and purple shades' show on the ; .finished print as though they were white, the yellows and reds as decidedly black. It has been the goal of photographers to secure, if possible some sort of a plate that will receive and reg ister light rays as they are sent off from an object, in all the beautv. of their natural color. After many experiments, Dr. H. W. Vogel, of Berlin, observed that some of his plates were more susceptible to certain col- ors tnan ptners, ano nnauy ne produced an-orthochromatic film or plate.: These : plates simply register the several depths of shade of color, and do not make any attempt to get the color it self, but even this advance was a great step in the art. ..- But with Dr.- Leckenby it is different. His method, which has not yet been made public, will produce a photograph with every color showing," resembling for all the world ; a painted pic ture. A photograph of,a bunch of flowers by r his method will show the roses red, the violets their real color and the butter cups their golden-yellow tinge. If the plan is practicable and in expensive, the whole photograph ic world will be revolutionized. Dr. Leckenby's discovery is all the tesult of accident. While working in his laboratory he was either struck with the new idea which makes color photography possible or he accidentally rah across his new compound. He quickly put his ' idea into shape, and with the result that he hasJ several photographs of flowers, all beautiful in their natural hues. He has made these photographs by the use of the ordinary came ra and apparatus and some speci al chemicals of his own, and has exhibited some of the prints in Portland. - ": x Dr. Leckeuby will -not patent his discovery to make money out of it, but will give it . to the world, v - ; 1 School Visitations: ' " District No. 21 visited November IS.
