Old Ana Diet.

The Metchnikof theory Of old age, as
is we'll known, attributes aenile decay
largely to poisons in the great intestine.
From the latest report Of Professor
Metchnikoff and DR.. Eugene Wollmann
1t appears that these poisons T. chiefly
indol and the phenols and that sugar,
which is much more readily absorbed
by the great intestine, must have much
effect in opposing their action. They
propose feeding substances that certain
microbes keep from turning to sugar
until the great intestine Is reached.
They concluded that IN ideal diet would
include two meals a day, made up Of
12O grams Of meat, 500 or 600 grams
Of clotted milk calculated by the Tactic
acid bacillus and a suf1ciency of vege-
tables, fruits and farinaceous SUBJ
stances. Under test this diet Is claimed
to have kept the intestinal poisons at
q minimum.

COOPERATIVE Banks For Farmers.

BEVERLY. Mass, Oct. 22.-President
Taft's plan for cooperative banks for
the American farmer has been en-.
dorsed by seven governors. Ten let
ters from state executives discussing
the plan have been received here.
Governor Baldwin of Connections Is

prevail. The letters were received

The governors who approved the
idea are: Eberhardt of Minnesots,
Pothier of Rhode Island, Foss of
Massachusetts, Vessey of South d.
kota, Blease of South Caroline, Gold

operative credit for farmers at inter.
est rates equal to those paid by capt.
tai was q for the states to take up
and suggested that the governors IN
their conference at Richmond, Va,

Poison From Frogs.

The arrow poison used by the In
dams Of Colombia has been found to
be the secretion of the skin of a small
frog. The arrows are eight inch palm
spines, which are shot from a blow
gun about fourteen feet long. and the
hunter carries the frog along in a hol-
low bamboo in order that he may have
the poison in a fresh condition. A
simple prick of the skin yields the poi
son drop when needed. When one of
the arrows enters the body Of v e d
large animal, such as a jaguar, mon
key or deer, paralysis quickly follows.
and the victim is then easily killed.
The use of the poison, it is said, does
not affect the flesh Of the animals kill
ed. which is quite harmless when eat
en-. Two French naturalists have
made experiments with the edible
frog, Rama osculenta, showing that its
skin exudes a similar poison when IT.
ritated and that an extract prepared
from the skin gives in guinea pigs the
same symptoms as incubation with
the arrow poison.

Silk Made Of Horse Flesh.


German chemists are reported to
have succeeded in utilizing fbrous ami
NAL refuse. such as the flesh of dead
horses, for making artificial silk.
Treatment with acids d~isintegrates the
flesh into its ultimate fbers, and these
are given a silky appearance, with
great durability, by a kind Of tanning
process. The threads produced greatly
resemble those Of the wild silkworm
and are about two inches long. They
may be vulcanized like true silk and
car be made air tight and water tight
by immersion for a couple of hours in
a caoutchouc bath under a pressure of
four atmospheres. The material seems
to promise something cheaper than
silk for balloon envelopes, insulation.
etc.. though attempts to spin he 6bers
into thread have failed.

Improved Health Conditions.

HELENA, Oct. 24.-In q bulletin just
issued by the state board of health, q
marked decrease Is shown in the num-
Der of cases of contagious diseases in
the state In the last three years.
1.-THE decrease in cases between 1910
and 1911 was accomplished by i'm
proved sanitary conditions" says the
report. 1.-THE marked decrease be-
tween 1911 and 1912 is the result of our
improved milk supply. Yet, for near.
ly a year, We received nothing but the
most cutting condemn alton for our ef-
forts to prevent the sale of impure
milk, and these lives that have been
saved more than 100 In nine months
are certainly worth while and the
money expended.

TRACK LAYING MACHINE.
Device Places Ties and Rails In Posi-.
ton For the spiksrs.

VI w. SRsNVVOs
The modern track laying machine
should not he confused with track lay.
ing tools, as this machine is not a tool.
but a real machine that actually lays
tracks, says the Scientific American.
The machine moves steadily forward
over the track it lays at Il rate of from
twelve to forty feet per minute. AT
the rear of the track laying machine
are ears loaded with ties and rails. The
cars which carry the ties are In ad-
vance Of those carrying the rails. The
rails are drawn forward on rollers and
are connected temporarily n to the
other. As the rails pass under the cars
which carry the ties the latter are dis
tributed upon the rails and spaced
apart uniformly. The chain of rails
thus serves to transport the ties toward
the track laying machine. AS the rails
enter the machine the ties are picked
up by a conveyor and carried overhead.
They are distributed on the roadbed at
the end of a truss that reaches far In
advance Of the main body of the track
laying machine. The rails in the mean
time are carried forward and deposited
upon ties previously laid. The truss
may be swung to one side or the other
in order to allow for passing around
r
The track laying machine is self

five cars Of material. more or less de

twelve cars will carry enough materia
for a mile of track. This machine. will

lay and bolt and spike a half a mile o.
track per day. With a larger force Of
men two miles Of track may be laid II
