Colo Storage Lady Bugs.

Lady bugs of Nevada origin are i'm
ported into California to destroy many
of the insect pests of vines and orch
ards. They are found in moss under
the snow; but at that season they can
not be pressed into service, because
the worms on which they feed have
not yet appeared, while the lady bugs
are still alternating.
Accordingly the little Nevadans are
placed in refrigerating wagons and
thus conveyed to California, to re-
main in cold storage until their serv-
ices on vines and trees are required.
During all this time they take no food.
With spring come the destroying
worms, and then the lady bug is
taken from her prison and dispersed
where she appears most likely to do
her work we'll AS she is ravenously
hungry. the work is begun and con-
tinued until the worms are destroyed,

study of the geological formations of
the Culebra region, and they are as
sured from these Investigations that
they have made all necessary allow
ances for further possible slides, Yet
they are preparing to meet any new
ones which may develop. Should there
be any additional slides after June /,
1918, the canal authorities will meet
them by moving the great dredges of
the Pacific division into the cut and
dredging out the incoming material
at the rate of millions Of yards a
month. By that time the locks and
dams of the canal will have been COM
pleted and the water can be turned
into Cu1ebra cut. But this is con-
tingency that is practically certain
not to arise.
Taking a journey through the canal
from the Atlantic to the Pacific, one
may see everywhere evidences of the
rapidity with which the canal is be-
ing completed. The seven-mile sea
level section between deep water and
the GatrIn locks is already opened to
navigation. 1t can now be used by
craft of moderate draft, and will be
completed to it's full width of 500 feet
and it's full depth of Al feet before
Thanksgiving day next year. At Ga
tun one finds additional evidence OF
remarkable progress. The locks at
that place are now within a year of
completion except for the installation
of the gates and other lock machinery.
By the first of April the Gatun dam
will be ready to hold SIS out Of the
final 25 feet of water in Gatun lake.
That part of the dam between the
locks and the spillway is already prac-
tically completed, and the other Sec
ton is being pushed to completion
rapidly. The whole structure will be
completed nearly two years before the
official opening day of the canal.
After passing through Gatun locks,
one finds the finishing touches being
applied to the next rs miles of chan
mel. The completion of the relocation
of the Panama railroad along the high
ground to the east of the canal has
taken the road out of the Chagres val
ley. This permits that entire portion
of the old Panama railroad to be done
away with, and by May l the 26 miles
of the canal between Gatun and Las
| Cascades will be entirely completed.

Attaining Correct Carriage.

To attain correct carriage one must
walk erect and to achieve this end
there is nothing better than trying to
walk with a book or similar article,
such as box Of writing paper or sew
eral music books. This is sure to keep
one from developing the swaying of
the body more to the one side than
the other. Stays that force the oppo-
site of this rule should be discarded
and destroyed, for they are not fit for
the individual to wear, for If they
work against erectness Of carriage
they are really menace to the health.
Throw out your chest; better to have
commenters say that you are so
straight that you appear to be falling
over backwards than to be round
shouldered and moreover phthisical in
appearance in looks, if not in fact.
