All ladies of good taste know that nothing Is so becoming for any kind of hair-dressing or coiffure IS a soft, naturaI-loolling marcel wave.
 It is fact that many ladies have lost their interest because of being de- ceived by so-called hair dressers. Marcel waving is not a matter of taste and skill alone-it requires strength to do it thoroughly.
 If you wish to have your hair prop crly waved and dressed, call at my parlors. I guarantee perfect marcel wave. have a man expert with good taste and skill and also with the strength requisite for work of this kind.

DIPLOMAT IN QUEER POSITION.
Turkish Representative Long in Capt..
tai Without Credentials.

Chekib Bey, the Turkish minister
in Washington, will go to the White
House in a few days to take leave
of the president prior to returning to
his native land. Chekib Bey is the
only diplomat known in history who
has served as the representative Of
his master without presenting proper
credentials. Upon his arrival he was
introduced as the Turkish minister.
He was unequipped with letters of
credence, but intimated they would
be along in short time. Whenever
mention was made of this important
essential by the state department,
Chekib Bey would enter upon a long
dissertation about the red tape In Con-
stantinople and invariably wind up
with the statement that it would not
be long now before his credentials
arrived.
1t got to be such a joke that the
authorities refrained from referring
to the matter. They contented them
selves with designating Chekib Bey In
the diplomatic list as Appointed en-
voy extraordinary and minister pleni-:
potentiary," and placing him at the
foot of all the ministers. OF course the
purpose of the Turkish government
was to show its displeasure at the
conduct of the United States in press.

Chekib Bey leaves Washington with
the good will of everybody, especially
the president and Secretary Root, and
he owes this entirely to the tact he
has displayed in dealing with an I'm.

FOUL BROOD
OR BEE PEST

The Investigations of the British
board Of agriculture and fisheries into
this afiiiction of the small holder have
resulted in the publication of a useful
little pamphlet, which those who keep
bees cannot afford to neglect. 1t does
not contain anything new. but it sum-
marizes the knowledge that was al.
ready in the possession of those in
terested In the subject. We are told,
first, that Foul Brood is caused by q
microscopic rod-shaped bacterium,
termed bacillus alvei, which increases
by cross-division, and has. under Ger
tain conditions, the power of forming
spores. 1t is important to note that
bacilli are present in the earlier stages
of the disease. but in the later stages,
when the brood has become rotten
and coffee-colored. or has dried up to
a scale, the bacilli produce spores and
then perish. These spores represent
the seeds of the evil; they are rest
ing resistant stage tiding the bacteri-
UNI over unfavorable conditions Of
food, temperature. etc., Of giving rise
to the growing form of the bacillus"
The symptoms by which foul brood
makes itself known are weak stocks,
langor at work, light swarming and
the general deterioration of the hive.
An examination of the combs will gen.
orally disclose the symptoms in the lar.
vac, which. II diseased. are found ex.

ures suggested are particularly to be
noted. The beekeeper often dissemin-
ates the disease by failing to wash his
hands with carbolic soap and to disin-
feet the articles with which he has to
come in contact. The only sure method
of getting rid of the diseases in a weak
colony is to destroy bees, combs,
frames and quilts. The policy of try.
ing to retain even strong hive is
questionable. 1t is said in a note: 1T
may be added that in the case of mild
attacks disinfection or fumigation Is
sometimes resorted to, formalin being
the chief agent used. In attempting
such remedial measures. however, or

scribed above, it would be desirable,

VENTlLATING THE
COW STABLE
By E. L. Aderho1d. Wisconsin

The King system of ventilation re.
moves the lower layer of air, but does
not permit the warm air to escape. In
a we'll constructed stable this insures
a rapid change Of air without unduly
lowering the temperature.
Outlet flues are built tight, usually
Of lumber, beginning eight or ten
inches from the floor and extending
higher than the ridge of the roof to
insure good draft at all times. When
made of metal, ice is liable to form on
the inner walls. One such fue is sui.
hcient for a small or medium sized
stable. while very large one would
probably be better served with two
flues some distance apart.
The proper capacity Of the outlet
aue is determined by the total weight
of live stock in the stable, figuring one
square foot of cross section inside for
each 5000 pounds of live stock.
For instance, IL the stock weighs
about 10000 pounds, four square feet
would be required, which could be
furnished by One flue two feet square,
or by two flues 1924 inches each.
Each flue should be provided with a
damper for regulating the flow of air
when strong wind prevails. The
lower layer of air at every part of the
stable should have an opportunity to
flow along the floor to an outlet flue.
These fues may be placed where least

loss from blackleg has been reduced to
about one-half Of per cent. When
1t Is considered that In regions where
blackleg prevails the losses from this
disease alone exceed those from all
other causes combined, and In certain
badly infected regions amount to more
than 10 per cent. of the annual calf
crop. then it is plain that the general
introduction of preventive vaccination
must be of material benefit to the cat.
tie raisers in the infected districts.
With these figures before us there 10
every reason to believe that, with the
continued use of blackleg vaccine in
all districts where the disease is
known to occur, and an earnest ef-
fort on the part of the stock owners
to prevent the reinfection Of their
pastures, blackleg may be kept in
check and gradually eradicated.

To prepare the vaccine in such a
! way that it may be injected hypo-

certain implements which, together
with the hypodermic syringe, are
known as a vaccinating outfit. This
consists of a porcelain mortar with a
