The Science Board of the Radio Work- shop at Syracuse university will answer each week in The Lowville Leader those questions considered most interesting and timely.] Q. 1. What causes color blind- ness? A. Most forms of color blind- ness in man are hereditary. How- ever, certain types can be acquired The most common cause for the acquired form is injury to the retina, due to excessive use of al- cohol or tobacco. Practice in read- ing colors often improves a color blind individual's ability to dis- tinguish the various colors. — Dr. Verlus Lindeman, zoologist. Q. £. It seems that we nave to add fertilizers to the soil in order to grow vegetation similar to that w3ft?li Wsis originally present 'but tU@ ;l orfgbikl plants were able to grow without fertilization. Where afd-the-'bTiginal fertility of the soil come'TrSfi? A. The weathering or decompo- sition of the local material in the soil produced the minerals neces- sary for plant growth. Such min- eral substance is continually being produced in the soil 'but its rate of production is much too slow to supply the needs of plants which are grown and then removed. In order t o supply fertilizer as rapidly as is needed under conditions of modern agriculture, the supply is slowly increased by weatherting and must be augmented by that which is added from other sources. —'Dr. Earl T. Apfel, geologist. Q. 3. We are continually im- pressed by the ill effects of various j bacteris which cause diseases to | ourselves and our domestic ani- j mals and which also cause food • spoilage. Does bacteria ever serve j any useful purpose? : A. Yes, indeed. Only a small ' minority of bacterial species cause \ diseases. The great majority are ' not only harmless but, collectively, they are absolutely essential for the continuation of life on this planet. Some of these bacteria restore or maintain the fertility of soils by fixing atmospheric nitro- gen, others split down organic com- pounds so that their elements again become available for use by other living tilings. Some types of bacteria produce sUbslauces which ale 01 direct use to us. in some cases food, in oth- ers for industrial purposes. Bac- teria produce the lactic acid which \vc enjoy in buttermilk and various types of fermenied milks and in sauerkraut. Cottage cheese is pre- cipitated out of milk by the action of the lactic acid formed by the bacteria present. The flavors and strength of other types of cheeses are due to the types and concentra- j tion of various products formed by '. bacteria or molds growing in the cheese during storage. Nearly every salad we eat contains a bac- terial product; the aecetic acid of the vinegar. All alcoholic bever- ages get their alcohol directly or indirectly through the activities of yeast cells in 'breaking down su- gars. All our yeast bread is leavened by gas formed in the fermentation of sugar. Some of the citric acid of commerce is produced by the; microbial fermentation of sugar,; and so is butyl alcohol. Penicillin ; is the microbial product that is of j chief interest to the public just ; now. This is a product of a cer-1 tain mold and gives promise of j proving to extremely useful as an | antiseptic and chemotherapeutic' agent. So we see bacteris and al- i lied microorganisms are by no I means all undesirable. On the' contrary, the majority are either; harmless or |S$fcful and collectively | they arte! fifcgjfiensable in the mar-; velously complex and entrancingly UitjftestfB^ te^joflpmy of nature.— P-fdf; Henry.-NT Jones, 'bacteriolo- gist/ •••--•-''- EXCLUSIVE j with Ethel and Tillie are Revelon !

NATIONAL CDITORiAL SSOCIATION Farmers who have sufficient in- come to require filing a declaration of estimated 1943 income and Vic- tory tax are required to file and , make a payment on or before Dec. ! 15, unless they complied with this requirement on the Sept. 15 date that applied t o most other persons, 1 explains Robert E. Hannegan, com- missioner of internal revenue. Farmers and others making their first report this time will receive no declaration forms but must ask for them if they do not still have the forms niailed them in August. Because of the\ difficulty farmers have in estimating their tax, they have been given until Dec. 15 to file their declarations, whereas others', were required to file Sept. 15. .'Faramets^re also given greater leeway in estimating and are not subject to penalty, unless they un- derestimate their fax by more than 33 li-3%. Those persons, including farm- -ers, whp! must,file on or before bee. 15>a\re: 1. Persons who did file on or before Sept.

Any person who was required to file an income tax return for 1942 and who expects his wages in 1943 to be less than in 1942. Persons who have questions should address them to their local , collector of internal revenue. Col- lectors' offices again will provide advice and technical assistance to taxpayers who request it.
