would accomplish the conservation we
desire in every territory"
DR.. Ira s. Vile of New York City,
Editor of the Medical Review of Re-
views, advocated the providing of
lunches to the pupils by the public
schools. Many children he said do
without lunch at midday while at
school and others buy candy with their
lunch money, which is worse than
nothing at all. The only way the school
authorities could compel the children
to eat substantial lunches in the mid
day would be to provide them in the
school. He said this was one of the
greatest causes for the ill health of
young children.

soll ProtectIon and EertlIlzers-

The leguminous crops, such as clo
 yer and alfalfa, are not equal to grass es as soil protectors, but are superior to grasses as soil fertilizers, since they increase the total available supply of nitrogen in the soil. This is due to the action of bacteria which are found on the roots of leguminous plants, and which take free nitrogen from the air in the soil and make 1t available for the use of plants. Moreover, peren- nial legumes, such as clover and al- falfa, are very deep feeders and take g part of the mineral elements of their food from the soil below the depth of the feeding ground of ordinary crops.

SOLEMN RITE OF sHAWNEEs
Adoption Dance" Taken Very SerI- ously, and the Best of Order AL
 ways Maintained.

A dance which lasts all day and all aight, the performers eating nothing turing that period, Is known as the Adoption 'Dance," among the Shawnees. This is quite different from any one of the festive dances. The Indians come from many miles around and camp; their faces are painted and their persons decorated with beads. 4 bonfire is built in the center of the camp and they dance around this. The fire Is kept burning uniformly all the time. This serves also as their light The adoption dance is rather quiet more so than the other dances. The women do most of the singing, and in very low tone. They dance around the circle in twos. The men dance to. gether in front, and the women togeth- CT in the rear. The two leaders in front are usually the ones who are adopting the child. They carry tin pails; in these are rubber balls, whicn bounce and keep time with the drum mer. This is all the music they have to dance by. If a large crowd is as sembled they may have two or three drums. At these dances good order ib kept. No drunkenness is allowed. The dance is in grove, and if anyonG does not behave decently they tie hin to tree for the rest of the dance After the performance they hold great feast which lasts all day.

Biologist Says Fishes Remember.

The fact that fishes will return tim. after time to bite at the hook by which they have been caught is often cited as proof that fish have no memories But Yzes Delage, the great French bt lologist, has been making some exper iments which seem to prove the con. trary. He says that fish return to the hook because their greediness is great CT than the influence of their mem ory. If you place a bright red disk upon hook the fishes will cease to take 1t after being caught seven or times. If you change the color of the disk the fish will return indefinitely. The red disk made an impression on the fish's memory-slowly, it is true and when it recognized the danger signal it avoided it.

CUT OUT THE PEACH BoREH
Best Way to Fight Destructive In- sect Is to Prevent Entering Tree
 by Use of Solution.

Take look at your peach and plum trees and see if there are any signs of peach tree borers. A fine wood dust at the base of the trees is the sign. If it's there it's time for you to com bat one of the most destructive or chard pests.
 The borer works beneath the bark and wood at the base of the tree. It is the larvae of a wasp-like moth, which flies during the day time from the middle of June to the middle of September, and lays it's eggs on the bark at the base of the trunk In a few days the little grub or worm hatches from the egg and eats its way through the bark to the soft inner layer, where it feeds and lives during the fall, winter, and spring. In June and midsummer they become dormant and transform into moths.
 When the borers are once under the bark the best thing to do is to remove them with a sharp knife blade or point ed wire, say the horticulturists at the Kansas Agricultural college. It doesn't injure the tree to cut the bark with lengthwise slits, but cutting should never be crosswise. Fall and spring are the best times for remov- ing the borers.
 The best way to fight the destruc- tive peach tree borer is to prevent their entering the tree by coating the bark with solution of boiled lime and sulphur. This coating is made by boiling together, for an hour, one pound of quick lime. with two pounds of sulphur, and from one to three gal Ions of water This should be diluted to about four or five gallons. Then paint, wash or spray it on the trunks of the trees near the base.
 Make this application after the borers in the trees have been killed. It will prevent the moths from laying eggs there for some time. This treat ment is good for plum trees as well as peaches.

MakIna Weather to order.

There is a possibility that at soma dim and distant date we shall be able to provide weather to order. At any rate, a speaker at the Institution of Electrical Engineers in London held out hope that this wonderful aud scientific problem can be solved.
 The suggestion is that by means of applied electricity clouds approaching our coasts shall be dispersed and pre- vented from crossing the country. In other words, the clouds would be broken and made to disgorge their moisture at sea.
 The electrical defense of our coasts, if established, could be used at will. but the principal trouble would be the pleasing of everybody. Where one farmer, for example, would require rain, another might demand fine weather.
 Undoubtedly if weather control were required scientists would proceed with their invention; but at present there seems no possibility of the nation at large requiring weather to order, for what suits one man does not suit an other.

RHODE ISLAND WHITE BREED
Obtained by Crossing Partridge cochIS Female With White Wyandotte
 Male-HoId Their Own.

The Rhode Island Whites originated in Rhode Island several years ago, and have been bred and offered to the pub lie as pure-bred fowls for the past seven or eight years After giving them a fair test, I am more than pleased with the results. They were obtained by crossing a Partridge Co chin female with a White Wyandotte male. Pullets from that cross were matched to a Cochin male, and to this lot of chicks was used a rose comb White Leghorn, hence the origin of the Rhode Island Whites, says writer in the Atlantic Poultry Journal.
 This is a grand new breed of the future, which is one-eighth White Wy andotte, three-eighths Partridge Co chin and one-half White Leghorn. Test ed side by side with the Reds, they have never yet failed to hold their own in size or egg-producing quail ties. They are great foragers, and it matters not whether their mother is allowed to run with them, they will wander far out into the yards or runs in search of insects, etc. They do not stay around waiting to be fed, but are out and gone by the first peep of day, are one of the hardest breeds have tried, and have tried several.
 The chicks grow very rapidly, ma ture early, and, therefore, begin laying when rather young. Having a low. close comb, they withstand the ex- treme cold, which makes them one of the best winter layers, and more suit able for the northern states than the large-combed varieties. They will stand confinement well, making the valuable for those with only small lot, and are good settlers, but not per sistent. They make extra good moth CTS that are easily handled.
 Rhode Island Whites are excellent table fowls, making fine broilers and roasters, easy to dress, which is great feature with the housekeeper. Their beautiful white plumage bright red combs, wattles and ear lobes, clean yellow legs, neat, well-shaped bodies, together with their meat and egg-pro- ducing qualities, makes them one of the worlds best general purpose fowls and money makers.

HARD TO CONVINCE FRESHMAN

 What talk have you?" said the Trishman. NThe cathedral never closes"
 'This is not the cathedral" said the sexton. "The cathedral is several blocks above here. This is Presby- terian church"
 The Irishman sat up with jerk and looked about him. On the walls between the windows were handsome paintings of the apostles.
 "Ain't that St. Luke over yonder?" he demanded.
 'Tt is,' said the sexton.
