ANIMALS KEEP CLEAN
Now the Lower Creatures Look
After Personal Appearance

The manner in which elephants,
crocodiles, field mice and flies make
their toilets, and crabs wear ready
made suits, formed the subject Of a
lecture by Dr.. Hoyle, T. Z. S. E., of
Manchester
a cat always carries about with
it clothes brush said the lecturer,
for its tongue is rough. and it
cleans its glossy coat just as a lady
brushes her furs
Foxes, dogs and wolves, on the
other hand, do not use their mouths
when they need "a wash and brush
up, but scratch themselves vigorous
~ with their front and back paws
and are rs fresh as ever.
Field mice comb their hair and
whiskers with their hind legs in the
same way as dogs, and the fur seal
spends as much time in making her
self look smart as a woman does.
Although elephants appear to be
thick-skinned and callous, as a mat
ter of fact they take the greatest
care of their skins. and are constant
stantly having shower baths by the
aid of their portable trunks. After
the bath they roll themselves in a
toilet preparation of dust. which
keeps the flies of.
1t is the crocodile, however. that
makes his toilet in the most luxur-
ious fashion, for the Egyptian plover
acts as his valet. The crocodile mas
pointed teeth in which fragments of
food stick, and the plover-a great
friend-fiies into his open laws and
picks out the meat.
1t will surprise many to know
that the common house fly has feet
like camel-only smaller and that
the common crawfish keeps himself
tidy and clean. A certain kind of
crab wears a smart dress made of
fragments of red and green seaweed |

The Irrigation Age says: 1T may
sound like boom talk to many who
are not familiar with irrigated lands
TO. say that those who seek new
homes can find some Of the best op-
portunities offered anywhere in
America in the regions where the
rainfall is too light for successful
farming and where crops must be
made by fiowage from canals and
bitches. But the assertion is true,
decidly Sc. Almost without excep-
ton, irrigated soils are very strong
and fertile. By turning on the water
just where the crops need moisture,
there development goes forward I'M
checked to maturity. The result is
high-grade grains. rich and luxuriant
grasses and some of the most perfect
fruits grown anywhere in the United
States. Where the water supply is
sufficient crop failures are practical
ly unknown. There are no drOuths
to spoil business calculations The
irrigated regiOus are, almost with
out exception, healthful, possessing

MADISON, Wis, Feb 1S.-The
state railway commission today Or
dered railroad passenger rates re-
duced from three to two and a half
cents per mile. The commission
stated that a reduction to two cents
would cause the passenger depart
ment to operate at a loss, which
would result in the maintenance of
a high freight rate. The commission
considers the reduction of freight to
be of vastly more Importance than
