...official of Helium Co., which prepares that gas for use in dirigibles, announced last week the discovery of a new helium deposit, the situation of which was not made public. Helium, which is almost as light as hydrogen, has the great advantage of being non-inflammable. But, rare, it is expensive (about $35 per 1,000 cu. ft.). It is found mixed with natural gas. Hitherto there have been but two chief U. S. helium sources: 1) the Federal well at Amarillo, Tex.,? which yields 1.75% of helium; 2) Helium Co.'s well at Dexter, Kan., which yields...

...scarcely any June bugs in those States. That was because the beetles laid their eggs in 1927. (They prefer weedy lands or farms of small grains and timothy hay for laying.) Last year the eggs developed into grubs, which this year will turn into bugs, which next fall will deposit their store of eggs in their three-year cycle. The grubs do more farm damage than the bugs.

...Every year somebody gives more money to a university or college than anyone has thought of giving before. Last week, Candy Manufacturer Henry G. Granger deposited $100 in the People's National Bank of Hoosick Falls. Each year, half the interest will be given to Princeton University, the other half added to the principal. Theoretically, the deposit would mount to billions, trillions; actually, natural and other laws will prevent any such development...
