New Electric Brain Aims To Solve Problems And Translate Tongues
A new electric-brain computer called Zephyr is under construction at the U S bureau of standards lab in the University of California to handle complex calculations and translate languages. It uses a cathode-ray tube memory and a magnetic drum to store numbers and vocabulary, potentially mapping Webster’s 60 000 words to multiple foreign equivalents. Automatic translation would output English words from encoded foreign symbols found in its memory.

Crop rotation with deep-rooted legumes and plant nutrients is essential to farming. It must be supported by wise land management, as even the best rotation drains phosphate and potash. Even returning manure and residues cannot stop selling plant food through grain, beef, and milk.
