The Marmora has much of the, softness of air,\nvividness of color, and beauty of scenery that we associate with the Aegean and Ionian seas. Thread the narrow slit of the Bosporus, however,\nand you pass into an entirely different world\u00E2\u0080\u0094sterner, barer, rockier,\ncolder.

Such impressions as the passing tourist takes away are chiefly of\nthe flat and treoless Thracian shore.\nThe longer Asiatic coast, however, is\nmuch more indented, and rises on its\nsoutheast-shore to the whie peak of\nthe Blthynian Olympus. A higb.green\nheadland divides the eastern end of\nthe Marmora into the two romantic\ngulfs of Nicometdia and Mondania.\nThe south shore again ls broken by\nthe mountainous peninsula of Cyzi-\noua.\nOff its windy western corner lies\na group of islands, of whioh tha largest Ib the one that gives Marmora its\nname\u00E2\u0080\u0094a mass ot marble ten miles\nlong, famous from antiquity. for Its\nquarries. Another considerable island\nis the ong, white sandpit ot Kalolim-\nnos, just outside the Gulf of iMou-\ndania; but best known are the Princess IsieB, a little archipelago ot\nrock and pine that is a favorite summer resort of Constantinople.\nIn any other part of the world this\ninland sea wou d long ago have become a place ot sojourn for yachtsmen and summerers, so happily is it\ntreated by sun and wind, so amply\nprovided with bays, capes, islands,\nmountains, forests, and all other accidents of nature that make glad the\nheart of the amatejur exp orer. As it\nis, the Marmora remains strangely\nwild for a sea that has known so\nmuch of life; yet its shores arc* by\nno means uninhabited and between\nthem pile-) many an unhurried sail.\nThe focus of this quaint navigation\nis, of cooursc, Constantinople, standing high and pinnacled on either side\nof the crookeU blue crack that opens\ninto the B ack sea,\nThe busiest town In the Marmora\nafter Constantinople is Panderma on\nthe; south shore, joined to Smyrna by\na railway that taps one of the most\nfertile districts of Asia Minor. In its\nvicinity exists one of the few borax\nmines in the world. Anotlitr ittle\nrailway climbs through the olive\nyards of the Gulf ot Moudanla to\nBrusa, on the lower slopes of Mount\nOlympus. This de ightful town, thc\nflrst capital of the Turks and their\nmost picturesque city, is the Hamburg of the Levant, enjoying a renown of many centuries for Its hot\nmineral springs. It is also the center of an anciemt silk industry, first\nintroduced from China in the sixth\ncentury Iby Emperor Justinian. Its\ncocoons are considered to rank In\nquality above those of northern Italy\nand are much exported to America\nand to France.\nAnother ancient watering place] of\nthe Marmora is Ya ova, in the wooded hills above the Gulf of Nicomedia,\nwhose] baths were visited of old by\nEmperor Constantine, and there aro\nmany less frequented hot springs ln\ntbls region.\nMore numerous than the settlements of today, however, are the\nruins of yesterday. (Every harbor,\nevery hsjdland, has some fragment ot\nancient masonry, and the workmen\nbits of suu ptured marble, that have\ncome down from who knows when\nor where. About no body of water ln\nthe world, of equal size, have stood so\nmany stately citlrts.\nThe true question of the straits\narose as early as the fifth century B.\nC, whim Alclbiades of Athens, counseled the people of Chrysopolls, the\nmodern Scutari, at the southeastern\nextremity of the Bosporus, to take\nto 1 of -passing ships. Yet another\naspect of the question of the straits\nhad already arisen earlier in the\ncentury, when the Persian expeditions against Ssythla and Greece\ncrossed the Bosporus and thq Dardanelles. What success they had we \u00E2\u0080\u009E\u00E2\u0080\u009E \u00E2\u0080\u009E, \u00E2\u0080\u009E\nknow, and how a counter-invasion troj -j0arfj\nunder Alexander crossed' the Dardanelles in 344 B.

Founded earlier\nthan Rome or Byzantium,posses8etd\nat different times by Athens and\nSparta, by the Persians and Alexander, by the king of Pergamos and the\nrepublic of Rome, Cyzicus was long\ncelebrated as one of the most splendid cities of the\ ancient wor d. Its\ngold staters were the standard of\ntheir time.\nWith the rise of Byzantium, how-\nerver, its glory passed away. Goths\nand earthquake ravaged it; Constantino and the Turks found it an Inexhaustible quarry for the public buildings of Constantinople. Today there\nls almost no trace of its marble\namong the vines and o ive trees of\nthe peninsula.\nNicomedia and Nicaea, in Bithynla,\nwere also accounted no mean cities\nin their day. Indeed, Nicomedia, bequeathed to Rome with the rest of\nhis kingdom by Nicomedes III, In 74\nB. C, Ibecamei for a moment, under\nEmperor Diocletian, the capital of the\nworld. As for Nicaea, it has three\ntimes brJen a capital.\nNicaea, now Isnik, is not in all\nstrictness a city of the Marmora, but\ntihe ake onwhich it lies is geologically a continuation of the Gulf of Moudanla. A placet of importance long\nafter the Blthynian period, it is chiefly remembered today for the two\ncouncils of the church which took\nplace there in 325 and 787,\nA thid Blthynian city, which we\nhave already bentioned\u00E2\u0080\u0094Brusa\u00E2\u0080\u0094haB\nmore than one tit e to celebrity, not\nlctast among which is that its foundation was ascribed to the advice of no\nless a personage than Hannibal.

Its severity varies from year to year, but\nIta prevalence during the last few\nyears has caused a great deal of anxiety to many growers. This disease\nls charasterlzed by the occurrence ot\nyellowish-brown areas ln the core\nand fsometimes in the outer flesh o\nthe apple, but shows no external evidence on the apple and it ls only on\ncutUng that one can be certain of its\npresence.\nInvestigations on the cause of the\ndisease have been under way at the\nHeld laboratory of plant pathology,\nSummerland ( B. C, for four years\nand, while theso are not yet by any\nmeans complete, many facts concerning the conditions under which\nthe disease appears have been ascertained. A thorough 1 nvestigation\nhas, so far, failed to show the presses-tec ot any fungus or bacteria iu\nconnection with this disease. We\n'believe that the trouble is altogether\ncaused by an unfavorable growth\ncondition, to whioh the trees suffer\ning from the disease have been subjected. Th\u00C2\u00ABfdlsease occurs on trees\nwhich have suffered from extremes ln\nsoil moisture conditions during the\nlatter part of thei growing seaaon,\nthat ls, we find it on trees which have\ntoo much moisture and also on trees\nwhich have too little moisture during\ntbis period. These extremes appear\nto kill off the feeding system of the\ntree and there results therefrom an\nunbalanced condition in the buds that\nare to bear the nclxt year's crop.\nControl recommendations for the\ngrower are: /First, to see that there\nIs no excess moisture remaining\naround the trees during the late summer and early fall. In our irrigated\nsection the danger of seepage is always present and the grower must\nmake certain that it is not this condition that is agectlng the trees.\nSecond, where treeB are/ growing on\nshallow, open soils, to see that the\nirrigation water ls applied late\nenough In tthe year to prevent too\nmuch drying out of the soil between\nthq time wheir the irrigation water\nis shut off and when the fall rains\ncoma.\nFurther details on this problem\nwill be gladly furnished by the Summerland laboratory.\nIn Ms recently published memoirs,\nG.

McCall White, a Scotchman by birth, who, after serving\nas Vice-President and General\nManager of the Cadillac Motor\nCompany and more recently as\nVice-President and General Manager of the Lafayette Motor Company, has announced hiB acceptance of an executive position with\nBrooks Steam Mptors, Limited,\nwhose President, Mr. O. J. Brooks,\nhad searched the ranks of executives in Canada, the United\nStates, England and Europe. One\nof the remarkable things regarding Mr. White's cbange from the\nconyentlonal type of motor to\nsteam ls the fact that he started\noriginally as a steam engineer,\nand lt is undoubtedly affection for\nthis first love which has induced\nhim to give support to the manufacture of steamer cars. Mr. White\nundoubtedly ranks with the foremost pioneers of the automotive\nIndustry.\nMr. White's flrst Important experience in the designing of motor\ncars came during 1906 and 1907,\nwhen he was employed by the\nDaimler Motor Car Company aB\nspecial designing engineer. Afterwards he went to Naples as General Manager of tbe Italian Company. After completing his work\nfor the Palmier Company, Mr.\nWhite joined D. Napier and Son,\nLimited, ot London, England, as\nChief Engineer. Napier built tbe\nfirst six cylinder car in the world\nand lt was Mr. White's job to\ndesign a car which would remain\nsupreme in speed tests for two\nyears. This he succeded in doing\nand during his connection with\nbases his prediction on his many\nyears of experience ln the automotive field.\"\nAnd in connection with the appointment, too, Mr. Brooks made\na significant statement. \"I had\nthe pleasure of riding with Mr.\nWhite at the rate of over flfty\nmiles an hour ln our newly developed bus,\" he said. \"He was\nsupremely delighted with its performance. After a thorough examination of the boiler and\nburner units and other features\nof Its construction, he declared\nthat the Brooks Steam Bus was in\na class by Itself, and so far superior In performance and long lite\nthat competitive products would\nmake no showing against it.\"\nIn his connection with General\nMotors and as Chief Engineer of\nCadillac Motors, Mr. D. McCall\nWhite met a great many of the\nyounger generation of Canadian\nengineers drawing down very substantial salaries. \"It is only natural for them to go where there is\nwork for them to do,\" he explained, \"and as soon as the present\nprosperous trend in Canada brings\ndevelopment work to tbe fore,\nyou will find Canadian graduates\nflocking back again.\"\nAnnouncement is also made by\nthe same company, of the appointment ot Mr. H. A. Oswald as Factory Manager. Mr. Oswald has\nbeen ln the automobile business\nfor a period of twenty years as an\nexecutive for some of the largest\nmanufacturers In the States. He\nwas born ln Toronto, July 15th,\n1890, where he spent his boyhood and received his education,\nLater he went through a post\ngraduate course in mechanical\nengineering at the School of\nScience, Pottsdown, Pa., from\nwhich institution he received his\ndegree of Technical Engineer.\nReturning to Toronto, he served\na six year apprenticeship at the\nin Chevrolet History\nthe Napier Company he designed, James Morrison Brass Manufao-\n- -- - \u00E2\u0080\u00A2 \u00E2\u0096\u00A0 ...... . .\u00E2\u0080\u0094 \u00E2\u0080\u00A2-\u00E2\u0096\u00A0'turing Company, under the direction of his father, who was at that\ntime General Manager of the Company, the oldest and largest brass\ncompany in Canada.\nAnother Canadian with quite a\ndistinguished engineering career\nin the United States ls also joining the same organization, ln the\nperson of Mr. J. Heber Coyne,\nB.Sc., who obtained his degree in\nelectrical and mechanical engineering from the University of\nToronto in 1909, and is a native\nof St Thomas, Ontario. He bas\nhad a remarkable career as Chief\nEngineer tn tbe development of\nthe Knight Sleeve Valve Engine,\nand during the war, with the\nPackard Motor Company he bad\ncharge of design work ot the\nLight Six and Liberty Aircraft\nEngine, and after that became a\nmember of the Advisory Engineering Staff of General Motors.\nHe Is a member of the Institution of Automobile Engineers of\nGreat Britain and Society of\ni AutomoUvo Engineers of America.\nthree of the highest priced cars in\nEurope.\nTo many of the leading men ln\nthe industry, Mr. White's acceptance of steam as the logical method of transportation is significant\nOf the change which is taking\nplace in the industry Itself.
