It was| a beautiful tribute to the modesty of womankm(} that Mme. | Curie made when she discovered the element which has revo- lutionized physics, chemistry and some branches of medicine, and gave it an impersonal name. The courtesy of the labora-| tory dictates that the discoverer of a new thing under the sun may give it hi¢ own name if he wishes, and so per_petgate his own glory, Mme. Curie called it radium, because it gives out} rays. i 7 More than sentiment attaches to the gift. Of_course,_lt's money value, something like $100,000, will have little weight with a devotee of science like Mme. Curie.: She will use the radium for scientific research. Although Mme. Curie knows more concerning radium and its potentialities than any living soul, she has not, because of her generosity, one grain with| which to conduct experiments. The history of the discovery of radium is one of the m.o_st . exalted romances that the world has ever known., The daugh-| ter of a professor in the University of Warsaw, the present Mme. Curie was drawn to Paris by the magnetic pull of the renowned scientific schools there. In conjunction with the scientists Becquerel and Curie, she began a series of experiments with uranium which led to her discovery of radium. It also led to her happy marriage with Professor Curie. That tpe discovery was that of Mme. Curie alone was well established by a com- mission which awarded her the Nobel prize in 1903. The hope which radium holds out to the world is that it may be the means of fighting cancer, that malignant disease which has baffled physicians for centuries. Undoubtedly there are new fields into which researchers can go. And it is in these unexplored regions that Mme. Curie will venture. ‘The women of ‘America honor themselves by providing the means. THE SLIDING SCALE IN FARM LEASES Last year was a hard year for tenants, and in some cages| for landlords, on account of the slump in prices. Nobody knows what sort of a year we have before us, but it is better to provide against emergencies, as far as feasible, making the con- tract lease as liberal and flexible as possible. The share rent plan is advised by the United States department of agriculture. Then the landlord and the tenant divide the losses and the prof- its between them in an equitable manner. insisted upon, the office of farm management suggests that the rental be made dependent on the price of the crop, fixed at a given date. For instance, the tenant might pay $9 an acre for corn land, with the agreement that corn shall bring 75 cents a bushel on the first day of December. a bushel the price of corn goes up or down, the rental charge shall be increased, or lowered. Of course, the above figures are used merely in illustration. The customary average rental and cro‘) values will govern in any given locality. Even if your lease is already written, however, or if you have used one of the stand- ard forms, the landlord and tenant should be liberal and honest with each other. The Golden Rule remains in force, no matter what is written in the contract.—Farm Life. A NATIONAL SURVEY The second survey of national conditions as made by the Fidelity and Deposit company, while not universally favorable, does point to some favorable conditions, which in themselves, are most encouraging. The cost of living has diminished ap-| preciably ; building operations show an increase in considerable| of the territory; no new strikes are in evidence and greater| productivity of labor per man is reported universally. Raw materials are plentiful and there have been few business fail- ures; the crop outlook is favorable and the banking situation shows an improvement. Confidence in business circles seems to be slowly spreading and the country is working back toward| a more stable condition. | fungicide, aiding greatly in the con- trol of scab, mildew and certain other fungous diseases.
