Rendel Harris, in address at West

the word for music in the original is

means tie bagpipes. Wycliffe's YER

Color of the Eye.

Brown eyes are due to brown pig
ment laid down in the iris; blue eyes
are due to lack of such pigment.
When both parents are brown-eyed
the children get the tendency to form
iris pigment from both sides of the
house, and the condition of the pig
ment is said to be duplex. If the chill
dren get the tendency from one par
ent only, they will have brown eyes,
but the condition is said to be sim
pick. Two parents lacking brown in
the iris (blue eyed) will never have
children with brown eyes, but only
with blue eyes. If both parents have
brown eyes simplex. then one in four
of the children will have blue eyes. If
one parent has simplex brown eyes
and the other has blue eyes, one-half
of the children will have blue eyes.
But If in both or either one of the
parents the blue iris fermentation is
duplex, all of the offspring will have
brown eyes.

SPRAYING TO DESTROY
CHICKEN MITES
BY PROFESSOR J. C. HALPIN
gS5onan csizsss If .SsritaiH,s

Chicken mites suck the blood of tn
fowls and weaken them. They live 4
the house and lay their eggs in ere
ices. They suck the blood of Il
fowls during the night. During IL
weather they multiply rapidly, each
female laying hundreds of eggs.
They can be killed by contact insect
icides. One of the best of these is
kerosene. This is more effective than
kerosene emulsion, and although it is
little more expensive to USE is is
much better especially In small houses.
It should be applied thoroughly with
spray pump, care being taken to get
it in all of the cracks around the
roosts and walls of the house This
spraying should be repeated In about
two weeks. Ordinarily two thorough
sprayings will rid the house of the
pest.
Another way to destroy mites is to
thoroughly whitewash the house and
work the whitewash into the cracks
with broom or brush. Ordinary
whitewash to which two parts crude
carbolic acid has been added will give
the results desired This is best APP
piled with a spray pump.
Most any of the standard coal tar
disinfectants will kill mites A five
per cent. solution should be used.
There are many of these products on
the market, Zenoleum, Crenolin, Creo-
sote. etc, and they may be purchased
at most any drug store or poultry sup
ply house.

HANDY HELPS IN
THE KITCHEN
By MISS ALICE LOOMS
Hlscsnda csilsgs IF HgriEifzys


Among the numerous labor saving
devices one that may be worth while
is the bread mixer. Until housekeep-
ers learn to stir up very soft dough
with knife or better yet develop CO.
operative bakeries, the bread mixer
will be a labor saving device, espe-
cially If there is man or boy who
can be depended upon to turn the
crank Many of the poor results of
bread mixers are due to insufficient
mixing. Instead of the three minutes
turning advised by the manufacturers,
from six to ten. minutes will be
found more satisfactory. If anyone
doubts that the bread is being mixed
after the ball has formed on the rod
of the mixer, let her drop in some
cinnamon and see how quickly this
is mixed into the apparently. smooth
ball.
Many of our cakes are as well pre-
pared by mixing all the ingredients at
one time as by Dreaming the butter
and sugar first and finally folding in
the separately beaten egg whites.
While cake mixer will do this work
easily, the large sized Dover beater
which sells for twenty-five cents is
fully satisfactory One who has used
the large sized beater will be apt to
use 1t for many things which she had
thought too heavy for the ordinary
Dover beaten.
There is one excellent cherry pit.
ter on the market along with many
others that are nor worth while. This
has a hopper which holds about a
handful Of cherries, and a wheel with
a screw which adjusts the size OF the
place through which the cherries are
forced. 1t does take little thought
to adjust the pitter for different sizes
of cherry pits, but 1t is well worth
while to learn to use 1t. One woman
has jus. put UP forty quarts Of cher
ries in one day using the pitter.
This same utensil does equally well
for pulping grapes. which is always 9
tiTesome task when one wishes to re
tain the skins of the grapes and SO
must boil the pulp separately in or
der to take out the seeds.

The concrete block silo has been in
successful use for several years. Many
have been built which have not been
entirely satisfactory, but this has re-
suited from a lack of reinforcement
or an insufficient amount of cement. A
properly constructed block wall should
be equal to a solid type in efficiency
and durability The paramount diff
fculty has been due to neglect on
the part of the block builder who has
not used sufficient cement or reinforce
ment Block silos should be built
upon good foundations, special prep
arations being made for this by dig
gfng trench two feet wide around the
bottom of the excavation.
The blocks may be purchased or
made at home, hollow two piece blocks
being most satisfactory. Silage is
not liable to freeze in silos of this char
acter; in fact it has been preserved in
excellent condition in weather 2S de-
grees below zero. OF course, these
silos We're well constructed, the doors
were never opened except at feeding
time, and good chute connected the
barns and silos which further aided
in keeping the silage in normal condi-
ton.
The hollow block is the cheaper
method of wall construction, and
should be considered as the most de-
slrable for concrete block silos. This
method OF construction will greatly re-
duce the amount of material and labor
in the building of these blocks. The
blocks should be laid in a good bed
OF cement and reinforced with three
eighths-inch rods placed between
every layer of block for the first is
feet above ground in a silo IA feet
in diameter and Sc feet high. Above
this height the reinforcement should
be placed between every second lay
er. The doors may be continuous or
separate openings, but If of the former
style arrangements should be made so
as to insure a continuous reinforce
ment around the silo. This may be
accomplished by securing the rein

French Lawyers Went on Strike.

Over 800 years ago one of the most
unusual strikes ever recorded took
place in Paris, when all the lawyers
walked out, so to speak. A law or
ordinance was issued and promul-
gated by the French king. Henry III,
ordering all lawyers to sign their
pleadings and to state the amount
they were charging their clients for
their services. This was done so
that the lawyers could be properly and
sufficiently taxed on their income. The
lawyers objected, and the strike, caus-
ing an entire stay of judicial proceed
ings, followed. Peace was restored
by the non-enforcement Of the ordon.

expensive, but home made form
which will answer every purpose can
be made by anyone who is handy with
tools The form can be made of wood

Unstable clamp at one end permits
opening the form to release the block.
Such forms are inexpensive, and 1t is
decidedly advantageous to have three

nit leaving the blocks in the form a
longer time, affording much better
opportunity for settling The blocks
should be made as large as can be cas-

about "a by by s inches. The cores
used in making them should taper to-

Mir. G. J. Beck, the assistant superintendent of the Sitka Training School, Sitka, Alaska,
 came to Carlisle especially to study the schools work, methods, courses of study, and equipment with a view to further enlarge ment of his school in Alaska. He spent several days, and inspected us quite thoroughly and endeavored to glean all the knowledge possible while here. He has been at Sitka, educating Alaskans, for some fourteen years and has some very inter- esting things to say regarding the natives of that country and their rapid progress in accepting educational advantages and Chris ianity. Carlisle Arrow.
 Letters are being received from a number of our pupils who are in their homes in various Alaska towns making inquiry as to when our school will be ready to re- ceive them again. The indications now are that the new buildings will not be completed before spring. We hope to be able in a few weeks to give out definite word stating when we can again receive students.
