INJECT BACTERIA TO HELP CROPS, SCIENTIST URGES Cultures Being Prepared to Carry Out Remarkable Promise. Bu V EA Service MADISON, Wis., April 29.—Little colonies of bacteria Injected Into some of the growing crops will save the farmers of the United States millions of dollars a year at a cost of only a few thousand. This is the remarkable promise made to the country’s farmers by Ira T. Baldwin of the University of "Wisconsin, where he is preparing cultures for just such use. $1,000,000 Saving Legume inoculation is what Baldwin has found of especial interest for the present. Experiments he has made show that for the State of Wisconsin alone inoculation of alfalfa, among the legume crops, would save that State more than $4,000,000 a year at a cost of about $25,000. Little nodules of bacteria inoculated into this growing crop take in the free nitrogen of the air, which the plants themselves cannot use directly, and turn it into the nitrates that are so useful to plant growth. For this the bacteria take the sugar that the legumes have converted Within their leaves. Both Prosper By this simple trade of sugar for nitrates, the bacteria prosper and the legume plants grow more healthily. Thus, Baldwin found, the additional nitrogen fertilizer gained by bacteria inoculation, increased the protein from 227.5 pounds in a ton of hay to 305 pounds. At 5 cents a pound the increased protein value is ' $4.37 a ton. With an alfalfa crop of some 30,000,000 tons" a year, the country would experience quite a saving, in that legume alone. Welcomed Wales CAPE TOWN, South Africa, April 29.—Enterprising statisticians here have calculated that the visit of the Prince of Wales to South Africa was worth $75,000. His entertainment | cost $125,000, but $200,000 was saved by the release of 15,000 petty crim- [ inals in honor of the occasion.

Postal Ban Goes on ‘Firearms by Mail 9 Postmaster Robert H. Bryson received official notice today from Postmaster General Harry S. New explaining the anti-firearm mailing act which goes into effect May 10. The law passed by the last session of Congress prohibits any person, except those authorized to carry firearms, to receive guns or ammunition through the maijs. Bryson said the law would be enforced strictly here. "Local ordinances prohibiting the carrying of guns or their sale without a license would be effective in abolishnig the promiscuous gun menace,” Bryson said, "but these ordinances are not enforced strictly.”
