Worlds Without End
The twentieth century may go down in scientific history
as that in which man really began to understand the universe.
It is true that he still knows little about it, but at least he is
becoming aware that it is immense and strange beyond anything his fathers dreamed. Evidence accu mulates that it is
flying apart like an exploding shell. The hurtling fracments
are not single stars, but galaxies in which. stars are mere
atoms. — In one of these galaxies is a parficular atom
known as the sun; attached to it by a gravitational thread i is
a spinning electron called the earth.
It is doubtful whether the most interesting characteristic
of the universe is its apparent expansion, which Sir Arthur
Eddington crossed the ocean to discuss at the Harvard Tercentenary Conference of Arts and ‘Sciences, or its seemingly
endless extent. Milton L. Humason, the Mount Wilson astronomer, had something to say about the matter of size in a
recent publication of the Astronomical Society of the. Pacific. He recalls that as late as 1919 many astronomers believed that the objects known as spiral nebulae were members of
our own galaxy, the Milky Way system. Now they are know:
to be independent galaxies far outside the Milky Way.
‘The number of stars in a galaxy runs into billions. The}
observable region of the universe—that within the range of
the 100-inch reflector on Mount Wilson—has a radius of
about 500,000,000 light years, and it is estimated that within this spherical sample of space there are 100,000,000,000
galaxies. How this sphere compares in size with the whole of
the universe nobody knows. If space is curved and finite, apparently the curvature is not sufficient to be observed with
the 10-inch telescope. Even Einstein admits that the universe
may possibly be infinite.
Galaxies, says Humanson, occur singly, in groups and,
ocassionally, in great clusters comprising 300 or more members; but when large regions of space are compared one
region is very much like another. No matter how far the astronomer pushes his explorations he finds no thinning out.
The universe seems to go on and on, galaxy after galaxy.

TURKEY PRICESSAME AS 1935
DAVIS, Nov. 5.—Turkev'. prices
this year started at about the same
figure as last season, and indications
are that there will not be much variation in price from the figures of
last year. This is the opinion of Dr.
V. S. Asmussen, assistant proiessor
of poultry husbandry on the Davis
campus of the University of California College of Agriculture.
There may be a larger supply of
because there were large numbers of
turkeys habehed late this season. Also, Thanksgiving turkeys brought
better prices than —-dtd— Christmas
ones last year, which probably will
bring more turkeys to the markets
in the early ‘season. High prices of
feed also will contribute, he believes
to reluctance on the part of the producer to hold their birds for later
markets.
Dr. Asmundsen urges: growers, in
spite of feed prices and last year‘s
market conditions, to see that their
turkeys are properly fitted before
