GLAND-GRAFTING
VORONOFF’S EXPERIMENTS WITH SHEEP IN ALGERIA. Eonaon. Dec. 3. Profesor Serge Voronoff’s glandgrafting experiments on sheep in Algeria appear to be meeting with much success. Reports published in Paris from JI. Pierre Mille. one of the leading French colonial authorities, describe experiments in which 20 young rams were grafted and 20 of the same age non-grafted and set asid for comparison. When weights were tested after a prescribed period the nongrafted rams averaged 31 kilos 825 grammes (about 701 b) and the grafted 41.700 (about 92}lb). The grafteds gave more abundant and silkier wool, the weight of the average fleece being--750 grammes (over l}lb- over the nongrafteds, JI. Mille says identical results were obtained in French West Africa. It is believed it .will shortly be tried in Franco.—(A. and N.Z.)
