THE HERMISTON HERALD. HERMISTON. OREGON THURSDAY, JUNE 18, 1942. PAGE SEVEN TO Florida Note, Coldest Spot Is in California Not long ago a man dropped an orange in Santa Monica. Calif., and the citrus fruit shattered into a mil lion pieces because it was frozen so solid. The man who dropped the orange was wearing sheepskin un derwear and an air-tight suit of leather. His head was covered with a helmet fashioned of spun alumi num and welded to the shoulders of his insulated outfit. And since the air he stood in | might have given him pneumonia if I he had « breathed it, an ingenious valve in his suit brought air that had been warmed by his body up to his nostrils. The Santa Monica Chamber of | Commerce does not deny this story , because the most frigid spot on the North American continent is in the so-called cold room of the Douglas I Aircraft factory in that community. 1 The temperature in this room is con trolled by a mechanism which elim inates heat so that the mercury falls as low as 104 degrees below zero. The purpose of the cold room is ' to reproduce the weather conditions | under which men and planes must | function at great altitudes. The test pilots at the Douglas airplane plant have found out that, at 35,000 feet, the temperature is usually about 67 degrees below zero. Long and painstaking experi ments in the cold room have made it possible to know, in advance of actual flight, that motors will work in the intense cold of the upper at- I mosphere and that the men flying the ships are properly dressed for their jobs. Cat Does Not Masticate Food; Tears It Apart The cat is a carnivorous or flesh eating animal. It does not masticate its food as does the herbivorous ani mals and as man should. Its teeth and jaws are not made for that pur pose. It cannot move its lower jaw as man and herbivorous animals do—from side to side. It opens its mouth by lowering its lower jaw and closes it by raising it to the upper jaw or mandible. It uses its teeth for gripping, puncturing and tearing its food to the size it can swallow easily in a lump. As a cat does not masticate its food, the salivary glands are small, there being little demand for the saliva to mix with the food and partially predigest it before it en ters the stomach, where the principal part of the digestion is carried on before it enters the intestine to un dergo further digestion and assimi- lation. The larger and tougher the masses it swallows the longer they remain in the stomach. The dog and cat have compara tively large stomachs but somewhat rudimentary intestines. The longer the food takes for digestion, the less craving there is for food until the next feeding time approaches. Metal Finder Developed A radioscope—a strange gadget that, when unfolded, is its own trans mitter and receiver, has been in vented by John Patrick Halloran, Los Angeles mechanic and air pilot. The instrument, he explained, is mounted on a pair of carrying han- dies between which the operator stands while carrying the instru- ment. When carried the transmit- ter floods the earth with strong radiation waves that are balanced with respect to the receiver so that signals can be registered both in the headphones and the detecto- meter dial which is in front of the operator's eyes. As soon as the - wave encounters metal within the • at th the metal be- comes by the radio wave a radiation of its and s own. This reflex, he explains, is picked up by the receiver, resulting in a loud signal in the headphones and a strong deflection of the point- er on the visual indicating instru- ment. Curb Disease It is much easier to keep plants free from disease than to control the disease when established. Go over your borders at least twice a week uprooting weeds and remove faded ¡eaves and flowers. Plants that are prevented from going to seed continue to develop flowers. Better prune your honeysuckle several times during its growing season. It is only by constant prun ing that it can be kept within bounds. After the fruit has formed on your currant bushes, if you notice evi dence of currant worms, spray with hellebore or pyrethrum. Literally soak your lawn twice a week. Semi-weekly soaking is much better than daily sprinkling. TRADE GOOD HOME Walla Walla for Hermiston pro- | perty. See F. B. Swayze at First 42-3c : National Bank.

S. citizens believe that smallpox was wiped out in this coun try decades ago. Metropolitan Life Insurance company's Statistical Bul letin recently pointed out a striking statistic: the Û. S. in 1939 had over 10,000 smallpox cases. “With the single exception of India (with al most 130,000 cases),“ said the bul letin, “we still lead the civilized world in our tolerance of this loathe- some and dangerous disease.” The reason: failure to vaccinate. Only ten states (nine of them east of the Mississippi) have compulsory vac cination laws. Smallpox is rare on the Atlantic seaboard, occurs mostly in Indiana, Iowa, California, Tex- as, Illinois.
