Trees Run Temperatures

Trees run temperatures pretty much like sick human beings, a study of drouth conditions shows, and the tree whose fever tops 68 degrees can be sure it is on its last limbs.- Temperatures in scorched and wilted trees soared as high as 98.58 degrees Fahrenheit, trunk tests on 16 American elms indicated, the temperatures shooting up as a blistering sun sucked the water out of the tree. “-When moisture drops below the 50 per cent point leaves fall and the tree may die. The tests, published in the bulletin of the Missouri Botanical garden, were made during and after a drouth peak after the trees had stood up under two .previous dry summers,

Dies on Schedule Time

The palolo, a large marine werm found chiefly around Samoa and the Fi islands, has a strange life cycle. Each generation of these worms is born 'slmultaneousléﬁn November ‘and then dies at the same time twelve months later. During their life they lie ¥n -coral reefs and then, on a certain day which can often be predicted

by the position of the moon, all of

them—numbering millions—rise to the surface in a body, discharge their eggs and die—Collier’s Weekly.

Fur-Bearing Animals’ Cycles

The Hudson Bay company reports that over a period of more than 100 years there seems to be a nine or tenyears cycle in the number of fur-bearing animals, including muskrats, mink and red fox. The periodic increase of these and other animals appears. to hold true in the northern United States as well as ip the Canadian Northwest. The increase starts in the far north and gradually travels southward, but the period remains the same.

Columbus’ Port f Few visitors to Spain discover the village of Palos, near Seville, although

it is from there that Columbus sailed

to discover America. Palos has a “ colossal statue erected to his memory in 1929, the gift of American friends to Spain. The tomb .of Columbus is in the Cathedral of Seville, third larg est in the world, and his sarcophagus is borne by four enormous bronze figures, representing the ancient king: doms of Leon. 3 ;

The Halo

The nimbus, commonly known as a “halo,” which is pictured around the heads of divinities, not only has various forms for different kinds of sacred personages—the Deity, the Virgin, Christ and saints—but also a square one for living individuals sach as kings, queens, emperors, shahs, sultans Westerly, R.
