At certain times dur ing the year the difference in time between morning and aft ernoon may be as much as half an hour.—Dr. William -R. Fred rickson, physicist. -Ai? natural vita- than manufactured Question- mins better ones? Answer—If this question re fers to the pure chemical com pounds, then tire answer is np. A pure chemical compound is the same whether manufactured- by plant, animal, or in tire chemical laboratory. However, a natural vitamin might have associated with it some other substance also essen tial or valuable to the human being. That substance would not be present in the vitamin pro duced in the laboratory' In this case the natural vitamin might be- better. We must reme,mber that although much is known regarding vitamins there 'is a great deal’yet to be discovered.— Dr. Albert H. Elder, chemist.

The j of new deer is concluded -h » pinkish (buff .anima]! col- , Question—Is morning as long as afternoon? 1 g Answer—The answer will dif fer for places of different longi tude since our clocks are set for standard time rather than local time. If we limit ourselves to lo cal time or to a place where standard time agrees with local time, for example a place where the longitude is 75 degrees west of Greenwich, such as a point just east of Utica, we find that at this season of the year the mornings are longer than the afternoons. In fact, all during the fall the mornings are longer than the afternoons up to about Christ mas. From then until about the middle of April the afternoons are longer. From the middle of April until the middle of June the mornings are longer and from the middle of June until the end of August the after noons are longer. On first thought. one might conclude that the ..morning should be just as long as the afternoo-n and it would be if we measured time by the true sun, that is the sun which we see: But our clocks do not measure true sun time. Instead our clocks are made to measure a day of 24 hours which is the average of all the days in a year. When our clock says noon, the sun may not be oh our meridian, and’ if- it is not the morning \and; the~afteniqon are not the same ■Length. For ■example, at this season of the year the sun cross es our meridian before the clock Question—A wood1 shelf in our bathroom warps badly in one di rection but ssems not to in an other. Does wood contract dif ferently in different directions?' Is there anyway in which wood can be treated to overcome that warping?. Answer—The question is a good one which we often get. in forestry.’Let me answer the'first part first. Wood should be thor oughly seasoned by reducing the -moisture content before it is used. Wood is spongelike; that is, it absorbs and gives off mois ture very readily and therefore swells and shrinks rather easily. Wood, shrinks lengthwise very little; sidewise considerably. If this sheif is placed over a bath tub or wash bowl with a lot of water in it, the lower surface will absorb moisture and swell and warp rather ba#y*rErQf. .Nelson Q. Brown, forester. dim vision. Some animals have both kinds. ■ The human b\ ing is in this .group. Some animals have only the rod-shaped lecep- tors and others the eone shaped In general, those animals' whose habits, are ngctmnaijhavfe only rod-shaped receptors which function best in dim hsht white those animals which, are active during the daytime generally- have both types, or maybe just the cones. ^ We know that many animals are more active at,night than m‘ the daytime.

Cleav age is the direction of easy split ting —Di Early Apfel , geologist. Question—H&w often should: water be changed in a vase holding cut flowers? Answer—The better arrange ment would be to have the cut flowers in running water, Water which stands in a vase for quite a while gets warm; it gets muggy; it makes a good medium for growth of bacteria and fungi and that is not good for cut flowers. Accordingly, the more frequently you change the l’’™ water, the betitec.for the flowers. —Dr. Ernest Reed, geneticist. . — —■—-o—— ----- ■ . 1 IT PAYS TO REA COUBIER-GAZETTE1 > THE s iANTADfi\ Question—What % the hardest material in the world? Answer—The diamond is so much harder \than any other material in the world that there really is very little cqmpanson between it and any other sub stance, eithem manufactured or natural, in this respect; The term hard as used here means that the substance iq difficult to break- be cause the , atoms are stuck so firmly to* gether -that there is very little possibility o.f getting' them, apart except by’using very great pres sure. 'Whem we say that we neqd great pressure, we say that sub stance is very hard. Occasionally a diamond will- cleave or split. That is- because j the atoms are held .together Question—Is itJ true that some animals see better at night than in the daytime? Answer—In order to answer the. question,-I-’ must provide some background, information. Visual-ability is associated close ly with the type of light recep tor apparatus, found within the eye. The two kinds of light re ceptors are the rods and the cones.
