It was once supposed that the SO
called 3parasol" ants, living in hot
tropical countries, carried little
leaves about their heads for the sake
Of protection from the sun. Later
investigations have shown that the
ants actually do carry leaves sus-
pended BY the stem, which they hold
in their jaws, and that columns Of
them thus furnished with leaves
like an army with banners march in
regular order, but that the leaves,
instead Of being intended to shelter
the ants from the sunshine, are de-
posted around their nests to form

Apple Record

Exceeding 1900. 900 barrels, the
apple crop in Annapolis valley.
Nova Scotia, is said to be the most
prolific apple producing section in
the world. is larger this year than
ever before known in the history of
apple growing in this country. The
problem which now confronts the
grower is to get enough barrels to
hold the crop. Farmers are finding
it hard to purchase barrels at 40
cents each, and can obtain only a
limited supply. Many are picking
and storing apples in bins until q
supply of barrels can be had.

Cement Production Breaks Records

Ten years ago the production Of
Portland cement for the first time
passed the 10, 600 900 mark, show
ing an increase Of 2.6Co percent.
over the production Of 10 years pre-
vious, and the giant strides that
have been made in the Industry
were widely marked. Even this
production was small compared
with that Of the present day. In
1910 the production Of Portlsnd ce-
ment reached the enormous total of
rs, ,549, ,951 barrels. with value Of
$68. .2O5 800.
The price Of Portland cement in
1909 was as low as 81 cents bar
rel in some places. the average for
the United States being 1911 cents
q barrel. In 1890 the average
price was over So barrel and as
late as 1908 it was 1.24 barrel.
Measured by the capital invested,
the cement industry is one Of the
three great extractive industries.
In capital employed it far outranks
tAe gold mining industry Of the
United States. including Alaska, as
well as the copper industry. Only
coal and iron stand ahead Of it.
The principal constituent of Port
land cement is limestone. and the
greatest beds Of these are found in
the eastern half of the United States,
where there are enormous deposits.
That the manufacture of GENE
is an American industry is Shown by
the fact that while our production
last year was over 5000, 900 barrels
our imports were only S06,863 bar
rels.

Pure Air in the Stable
By w. E. Ralston. State College,
Pullman. Wash.

Pullman, Wash.
Animals can do without food and
water for hours. and even days; but
they must have air every few sec
onds. The process by which they
pump air into and out Of their bod
les we call respiration, and by this
mean they supply their bodies with
oxygen. which is necessary every
minute, and also get rid Of certain
waste gas products principally car
bon dioxide. Thus air is made i'm
pure by being breathed by animals
as we'll as by man.
These impure gases move away
from the animal by process OF diff
fusion or are carried away by NOV.
ling currents Of air. If an animal is
kept in close building the natural
means by which the waste gases are
diluted are interfered with and the
Impurities accumulate around the
animals.
The larger the air space is the
fewer are the times per hour neces-
ary to change the air, and the cubic
feet Of space allowed for each ami
NAL in the barn depends upon the
number Of times per hour the air in
the barn can be changed without
creating a draught or cooling the
stable. AZ
A horse requires about $4,000 Gu
bic feet Of fresh air an hour. In
the construction of stables for horses
living under good conditions 1000
cubic feet are allowed for each
horse. and in order to supply each
animal with $4,000 feet of fresh
air. the air in the stable must be
changed about nine and one hall
times in hour. The cubic space
should be made up Of length and
breadth foryits longest parts, and
should not be over twelve feet high.
as the respiratory products accumu-
late IN the lower layers Of air only.
The space required for the dairy
cow is 800 cubic feet, BY law. but
ss;ais Is iHsMh hcient and ought, f pos.
sible. to be 1900 cubic feet.

Too Much Water on
the Hair a Mistake
(From Toilettes of Today, Paris,)

-
''If YOUR hair is becoming dry and
brittle, breaking off and losing color,
follow the lead of the many who have
taken up the new method of dry
shampooin"- said Clanpel Montague
in her lecture on Beauty at The The
atcr Monet. Thursday. ''It has been
proven that too frequent wetting the
hair is a mistake.
Even those who were devoted to
shampooing with eggs now use therox
and orris root. and they declare that
this dry shampoo makes the hair as
bright and fluffy as ever did eggs.
.'To make the dry shampoo mix
four ounces OF powdered orris root
with four ounces of therox. Sprinkle
n tablespoonful of the mixture on tine
head and brush it well through the
hair Do this once or twice a week
if the hair is thin and scanty and you
will soon notice new growth OF hair.
