E thrate in England And WaleG Failing In 30 Years Number of Mothers Will Be Reduced by a Third In 30 years the number of mothers in Britain will be reduced by a third, it was estimated at the conference of the National Association of Insur- ance Committees at Bournemouth. W.M. Marshall, secretary of the Scittish Association of Insurance Committees, said the trend of popu- lation was ale.rming. "The number of births fn England and Wales has fallen by a third in a generation," he raid. "Uuless the aver..ge size of the fancily were to double—a possibility that is so re- mota as to be inconceivable—it is inevitable that the population must decl:ne. NATIOiNAL SCIILAIE `'Even if no further decline is as- sumed in the size of the average family, the female babies born today will give birth in 30 years to only 355,000 children, compared with 580,- 000, today and 948,000 30 years ago. "There, should be no delay in form- ulating a national policy to cover every gap in the scheme of health services. The problem to be faced is that of a declining population—a population that is not in satisfactory health." Mr. Marshall urged that the work- ing elan and his dependents should have available all the services, vol- untary or statutory, which it was possible to use for the alleviation of sickness. The conference decided to ask the Minister of Health to appoint a rep- resentative committee to report on the health services of England—one similar to that which has reported on the Sottish health services. Lia 7c en's Beard Was Grown to Please A Little Girl DELPHIOS., KAN.—Mrs. Grace Be. dell Billings, 38, who as a girl was reputed to have induced Abraham Lincoln to grow a beard, died recent. ly, During the United States election campaign of 1860, Mrs. Billings, then an 11 -year-old girl living in Westfield, N.Y., noticed some election poster pons traits of Lincoln. "Shocked" as she described it by his smooth shaven fare, she scrawled this letter to the Republican presi- dential nominee: "Dear Mr. Lincoln: 1 think you would look better with whiskers. I think 1 could get my Democratic bre- thers to vote for you if you wore a beard." Airs Billings said cn in interview several years ago that in February after his election; Lincoln stopped at Westfield and asked her to come for- ward. "lie climbed dawnand sat down with ale on the edge of the station platform," she recalled, "'Gracie,' lie said, 'look at my whiskers. I have been growing them for you.' Then 'le kissed m .

The army offici- als not only bluntly turned down the young man's application for enlist- ment, but sent the ignorart judge a stinking rebuke for his foolish and unwarranted assumption that the army was a dumping ground for crim- inals.

Im- proper methods of storing, and apply- ing it to the land frequently result i^ the loss of more than half the value. The greateat loss occurs when the manure is piled loosely, out of doors. The liquid manure is even more valuable than the solid because.. it contains twice as mneIi nitrogen and most of the potesh, Every effort should be made to con- serve the ammonia, _Mogen and on - genic matter. Protect it as far as pos- sible from the wind, rain and sun to prevent leaching and heating. Make the pile compact to keep .tut the air, thereby pre enting doss of nitrogen and organic matter " rough totting. If no protection can be given the manure should be placed in large, flat compact pile.. five feet or more in depth with steep sides and kept moist. Locate the pile on levet land away from the eves .rf the barn. The ,top, of the pile should slope to the centre to conserve the rain water. A little acid phosphate, 40 pounds to the ton, mixed with the manure in storage will help retain the nitrogen and add phosphoric acid, thereby,increasing its value. The hest methd of add- ing the acid phosphate to manure is to spread a little gre .:ar superphos- phate 'every day in the gutter' behind the cows.

Incubators Provide Essential Warmth to Tiny Purple - Skinned Infants VANCOUVER. — More premature babies are born in the spring and fall than at other season; Miss Mar jorin McCaul, R.N., deckrred as an in fent..with a slender hold on life join- ed seven others, already under het care at Vancouver General Hospital.. The latest addition to an already crowded special ward won his first step toward normal lifefe when respir- ation increased from live to 12 a minute after he was placed in one of the hospital's five incubators. The other seven, including two- month -old twins that even now weigh little more than three pounds, are who have been fighting their difficult ways for from three days to three months. They are con- sid red almost out of danger. While Miss McCaul, supervisor of the maternity building, said each spring and fall brings an increase in the number of premature births in Vancouver, she admitted that eight babies in ward one was "un- usual." She did not account for the seasonal variation. She chuckled as she surveyee the row of incubators providing essen- tial warmth to tiny, purple -skinned Infants. "The ward looks like the showroom of a boiler raett1ry," she said. As a light flickered on one of the incuba- tors she explained operation of auto- matic thermostats that keep devices at a constant temperature of 99 de- grees so the babies need not use any of their scant energy to maintain body heat. The ward is operated in three sec- tions. The incubator room is kept at 80, the "secondary" 'room at 60 and the third, for infants almost ready to be sent home, at 50 degrees. Today two babies, nursed for weeks in incubators before they reached the five -pound mark, were moved to the secondary room. A special mixture of oxygen and carbon dioxide is supplied and humi- dity of the air in all three rooms is carefully regulated to supply the correct amount of moisture.

Radium Now Being Produced In Canada PORT HOPE.—The last "needle" of the first ounce of radium ever produced in Canada was sealed here recently at the radium extraction plant of Eldorado Gold Mine: in the presence of one of the largest and most distinguished gatherings of medical, mining and research lead- ers ever assembled at one time in the province. Chief of the distinguished visitors was the Hon. Dr. Herbert A. Bruce, Lieutenant -Governor of Ontario, who offered warm congratulations to Marcel Pochow, chief chemist in charge of radium production; his staff and members of the Eldorado firm. "I am delighted that the plant is located in Port Hope, and that the province of Ontario has taken part in the production of the first ounce of Canadian .radium, which will serve not only to relieve cancer suf- ferers in Canada, but throughout the world," Dr. Bruce said. Sir Frederick G. Ranting, discov- erer of insulin, also paid tribute to the workers who lied produced Can- ada's first radium. "It is a great romance in science, and a triumph in research," he said Last Laughs Spain is rapidly becoming a good place to be from.
