breeding and management problems this past year of tho 41s6s cows 22382 or 5345 per cent were recorded for eight or more months averaging 5903 pounds of milk and 237s0 pounds of butter- fat with an

inexpensive method using chunks of frozen tir and liquid hydrogen somewhat as ice is used by ice cream freezers professor alexander goetz of the california in stitute of technology finally succeed ed in liquefying helium at a tem perature less than four degrees this side of absolute zero the wonder of his work does not lie in the liquid helium it has been jiquified by five other physicists his imbition writes ransome sutton in the los angeles times was to find rn inexpensive method of producing temperatures wherein practically all gases can either bo liquified or frozen solid and studied in their various states if we knew water only in the form of oxygen and hydrogen wo would never realize that liquid water can be used to float boats on or to keep lawns green and if we had never seen frozen water who woulj understand its marvelous properties since goetz created an atmosphere of 270 degrees below zero centigrade which lacked only 32 degrees of being as cold as cold can be people are asking what kind of a thermometer he employed mercury would not do it freezes as minus 39 degrees pro fessor goetz used a lead coil connect ed with an electric current at ordi nary temperatures lead is a very poor conductor of electricity like many other metals however the colder it gets the less resistance it offers to electricity and at 209 or 270 degees below zero on tho centi grade scale its resistance drops to rearly nothing and it becomes an al most perfect conductor it was the degree of resistance offered by lead to electricity that enabled professor goetz to determine the exact temper ature ii side his ice cream freezer that temperature was six or eight times colder than the lowest temper atures ever encountered by polar ex- -r- ix plorers for every bad there might he a
