NEW YORK, Jan., 4, (/P)—From
Byrcl and Wilkins aloft in planes
over Antarctic and Lindbergh over
the Mayan jungles to such non
spectacular achievements as that
of two young German chemists
who split hitherto indivisible hydro
gen, earth’s simplest element,
science made hundreds of advances
in 1929.
Most of them are considered rou
tine by scientists with the time still
years away when their importance
many be evaluated.

In evolution Dr. Austin H. Clark
of Washington advanced data to
show that new species can come
into existence quickly, while at Car- j
negie Institution, St. Louis Univer- ;
sity, the University of California
and many other places, radium and
X-ray emanations were shown to be |
an influence in producing changes
in species.
Among very practical develop- j
ments were finding of better mine
gas protection by the U. S. Bureau ;
of Mines, an improved egg preser- J
vation method at Cornell, a means
of keeping fish fresh for a year in
Canada, a non explosive film made
of cloth at Pittsburgh, a caterpillar
tractor tow-boat on the Tennessee
river, the Sperry rail-fissure detec
tor traveling over the major Ameri
can railways and a telephone dial
'that speaks numbers.
I Health research provided many
■advances. At Yale, a method of
! treating pneumonia by carbon
j dioxide was anounced. At Harvard,
Michigan, Kentucky Agricultural
experiment station and other places
better or cheaper remedies for per
nicious anemia were found.
Europe and America developed
numerous advanced cancer treat
ments, without finding a remedy,
| and in the United States the patli
[ologists of Rockefeller institute re
j ported evidence that they are a 11
tle closer to termination of tuber
losls in a cooperative research car
ried on by 17 American scientific
institutions.
Dr. Fischer in Germany made the
red blood corpuscle synthetically
for the first time. New methods
were reported of extracting hor
mones useful for delaying the rav
ages. of age in men, and promising
relief for some feminine ills.
Study of light produced a sun
light picture screen in E i gland and
apparatus by Baird to materialize
before the eye, things hidden by
darkness or behind fog. The use
of ultra-violet rays spread so widely
that medical authorities warned
the public not to overdo.
The Eastman Kodiak Co., took
motion pictures with the aid of in- ;
visible infra-red rays, the U. S. Bu
reau of Standards developed artifi
cial daylight as “real” as that of a j
June day, and the General Electric.
Co., produced light that changes its
colors with fluctuations in the elec- j
trical current.
At the University of Iowa and
numerous other places voice vibra- j
tions traced in light were used to
train musicians. Similar transla- I
tions of sound into light were ex- ,
perimented with for helping the
deaf to see what they cannot hear.
Yale established an institute of
human relations to tie in all
branches of science with human af
fairs and Cornell launched an un
dertaking of the same .order.
A few of 1929’s developments to
indicate the range of scientific ex
ploration are smokeless tobacco,
non-inflammable paper, gasoline
made electrically at the University
af Minnesota, gasoline made from i
sea water, a silver water filter,
weighing of earthen dams at ,
Massachusetts Institute of Techno- !
iogy, sound to make hearts b:at
and sound to reveal chemical com
position of liquids.
The U. S. Naval Observatory has I 1
aew method of determining time, I
Einstein said that gravitation and
jlectricity are related, a Canadian j (
jnderwater listening device heard
cebergs six miles distant, and the j
Roosevelts brought a new bear from | ,

AN ALASKA INDUSTRY
To what extent a chicken ranch l

trict was sent to the Gateway j
in the last mail. The ranch re- j
ferred to, produces 25 dozens of
eggs a day; last month the ag
gregate output was over 700 doz

this output is easy to maintain- j
when one knows how-especially j
during the cold weather. And the S
