- SEES NEW PEST FOE " INSULPHUR DUST Scientist Announces Discov- ery of Powerful Destroyer in Infinitesimal Form. By_Sclence Service. RENO, Nev.—Sulphur grains as esmall as 1-25,000th of an inch in dia- meter were described as a powerful new pest killer in a report to the American Chemical Society, meeting here. The remarkable new prepara- tion was announced by its disco\'erer,! Dr. Ludwig Rosenstein of San Fran- eisco. Recently finely divided sulphur pow- der has attained great importance as & material for dusting grape, orange, asparagus and other plants afflicted with insect and fungus pests. The sulphur seems to be acted on by moist air to give products which attack the pest. Unfortunately, sulphur is not directly soluble in water, so that its wusefulness depends principally on the amount of surface of the solid pow- der, and no ordinary grinding process will divide the sulphur into grains as small as those of the new product. By-product, He Says. Dr. Rosenstein’s new ultra-fine sul- phur comes as a by-product of his new process for extracting the unde- | sirable hydrogen sulphid from house- hold fuel gas. In the process a little nickel sulphid happens to be inti- mately mixed with the sulphur, and | it is suspected that the accidental presence of this nickel compound is | &t least partially responsible for the great potency of the resulting sul- phur dust. While ordinary “flowers ef sulphur,” for example, will kill the red spider pest fairly readily, the new dust kills both eggs and mature in- mects. Other results as reported by the University of California experi- fment station are equally promising. Exists as Minute Globules. The roduct sulphur seems to lexist as minute globules of a spongy suspension of water in sulphur sug- gestive of water-soaked grains of gelatin or starch and may derive value from this condition. Fortunately, the gas-purification Process is so successful that a large gupply of the new sulphur-is likely %to be available shortly. . One Pacific Coast gas company alone will have 8,600 tons of sulphur.per year to work put in this way if demanded. —_— BERLINERS SHY AT FISH. fWant Meat to Eat, Considering Sea Food Is Not Real Food. Lorrespondence of the Associated Press, BERLIN.—Berliners refuse to eat fish. Attempts started Jast year to familiarize them 'with sea food have failed. Some dozens of ‘“popular price” fish restaurants were opened in the hope that the inhabitants of the German metropolis might take to fish more than they have done N\ hitherto, and thus support the home fishing industry. The hope has been in vain. One by bne the new fish restaurants had to put up their shutters for lack of cus- ‘tom, or else revert to the usual pork chops and beer. 4 There are only two so-called fish pestaurants left in all Berlin, and even they are “mixed.” Nearly half ;{ the customers order meat dishes. “Berliners won’t change their meat ting custom,” a leading restaurant ceper said, “They think ush isn’t feal food.” BRIDGE TO COST JOB. oat Mailman to Lose Out When i Span Is Erected.
