Hubbs, curator, it has ben announced. Parthenogenesis, in its pure form, is reproduction of the young by the female entirely independent of the male. In the investigations pursued by Dr. Hubbs, he has found that the male influence is confined only to initiating the development, that the germ plasn of the young is not ef- fected by the male, and hence its sex is always female and its inherent qualities identical to the female. 'rhe fish studied are hybrids of species found in a northern group near Mexico and the gulf, and a southern group found in Yucatan and the Panama region. Experimentation has been going on since May.

Despite all opinions to the con- trary, the ghastly liquid is mostly H20. Only about one-half of 1 per cent of its content is foreign matter. and even Andrew Volstead wouldn't object to that. The Huron river is just as inno- cent as it looks. It hasn't any more to do with that dishwater taste than the Atlantic ocean. Three carefully disguised wells, one on South State street, one on the west side, and an- other near Barton dam, are the guilty parties. Taking the Stecre farm contribu- tion, for example, the for.ign matter in the liquid consists of 295 units of alkali to a million of water, 115 of calcium. and ;8 of mag- nesium. And if that isn't enough - - ii to explain the taste, it might also be oral title of "miscellanies." mentioned that a little iron is doing At any rate, they say the stuff is its bit along with some other lesser pure.
