Better Conditions Found in Italy in Mussolini Regime
So Says Prof. Kellogg Upor Returning From Long Summer Trip in Europe
That better police and better municipal conditions in general exist in Italy now than three years ago, before the Mussolini regime, is the case when students of the department of architecture, who has just returned from three months in Europe. It is safer to go about on the streets, and in Milan the police even approach to the standards of the famous English Bollies.
Professor Kellogg spent a month of his time in Italy, visiting as far south as Naples and Pisaum, where he served as the head of the preserved Greek temples. Pereium is the site of an old Greek settlement of which practically nothing is left but the temples. One of these temples was preserved outside outside of Athens.
After a week spent at Lake Lugano on the border between Italy and Switzerland, Professor Kellegg went to England, where he spent the remainder of the summer studying English cathedrals. He visited nearly all the cathedral towns in Englund during the six weeks he was there. Norman work in the cathedra was of special interest to him.

Wembley, the site of the British Empire explosion, was dispatched when compared with the expedition to Britain's country. The colonial buildings were interesting, architectural, especially those for Burma and New Zealand. Professor Kellog did not attertain himself but was very well-versed about it.
Returning to America on the Mauretania, which landed last Saturday, Professor Kellogg was washed off the coast. He countered off Naragansett Bay, at about the point where the Arabic had its difficulties a week before.
Prof. Sternberg Watched Bond Markets Closely
Vacationed With Bankers
As a vacation Prof. J. Wesley Sterberg spent the summer with Blyth Witter & Company, investment bankers of Chicago. Professor Sterberb's work included assisting in the underwriting, syndicating and marketing of stocks and bonds.
As the finished products were disposed of large cash accumulations piled up. The belief was general that the somewhat curtailed production was only temporary, so the huge cash accumulations of the industrial enterprises were turned to short time securities. So strong was the demand for these securities in the civil and municipal investment securities declined to new lows for the past war period.
Professor Sternberg found the work especially interesting because of the strong bond market that obtained this summer. The unusually high demand increased production experienced in many of the leading industries Business concerns in many industries, because of the uncertainty of the general business situation, curtailed their purchase of raw materials.
The terms of the new issue were colored by the existing bond situation. Very few long term issues and many short issues resulted from the new market trend, according to Prof. Sternberg.

Food Exposed to Rays of Sun Stimulating to Growth, Says Chemist
Findings Are of Special Value in Curing of Rickets and Abnormalities
Copyright 1924 by Science Service,
Madison, Wisc., Sept. 11—Food given a sunbath are as effective in preventing and curing ricotta as food rich in the anti-itchy vitamin A Dr. Harry Steuben, professor of agricultural chemistry at the University of Wisconsin here has discovered
"Hundreds of rats have been used for these experiments," Dr. Steenbuck explained. "Bickets was produced in these animals by first feeding rains known to produce this disease. Then they were cured by feeding them with exactly the same ration which had been exposed to sunlight.
As a result of experiments he found that merely placing food in the sunlight will endow it with growth promoting properties supposed to be possessed only by foods rich in vitamins, in spite of the illumination foods may contain no vitamins before exposure to the light.
"For man these findings have particular value because prominent medical authorities have found that in the United States, 94% of the children in industrial areas show signs of rickets. Such a condition, while seldom fatal, leads to more or less permanent abnormalities such as deformities, deformed chests, and poor teeth.
"Ricketts is rarely found in the tropics because direct illumination with sunlight acts as a preventative," Dr. Steinkau said. "But with the infant in northern climates, direct exposure can be valuable for a considerable portion of the year and sunlight filtered through glass is of no value. Dietetic treatment, therefore, is necessary as a part of the daily ration. Activated oils may be given as medicine or they may be incorporated in modified cow's milk form." The use of activated oils accomplished by using activated oils as salad dressings or otherwise.
To protect the interest of the public in the possible commercial use of these findings, applications for patents, both as to processes and products, have been filed, and will be handled through the University of Wisconsin.

In the account of the voyages of the famous scientific ship Challenger is a reference to a similar experience when the vessel "passed through war ter full of minute algae gleamlike particles of mica."
This *bunnaal* phenomenon occurred at night, and, according to the hydrographical office, is accounted for by the presence in the water of myriads of tiny phanta constituting the aquifer. The hydrology consists mostly of the grus Trichodermae, which caused the coloration.
In the near future the Bureau of Mines will have a film for circulation depicting the manufacture, proper carriages, and use of dynamite.
