but to make light, moist muffin which is
not soggy in the center, a double-raise

K c Baking Powder has two separate and
distinct raises: one when moisture is
added, and the other when heat is applied,
so that the raising is sustained until the
muffin is baked through, and all danger OF
falling and becoming soggy is past.
Like biscuits, the softer the dough goes
into the oven, the lighter the mullins that

This Is a clear gain. Other

FUNGUS PARASITES

With the beginning Of the rainy

ready present, he should spare no
pains to introduce them. Howev

that il keeps well in cold storage.
The grower having cold storage

MINERAL PRODUCTION
Yearly Output Of the Uuifed STATES
Has Greatly Increased

The value Of all minerals pro.
duced in the United States in 1919,
according to figures just complied
by Edward w. Parker, statistic
ian, of the United States Geologi-
cal Survey, reached the record
breaking total OF SO, ,243, $3.50, 1876.
This is more than six times the
value of the production in 1882,
80 years ago. During that PEE
riod the population has not quite
doubled, but the per capita ont
put of the mines has increased
from 81. 81 to S23.47.
During these three decades the
value of the output of some min
erals has made striking increase.
The value of pig-iron product,
for instance, has increased from
LOG 10 APO million dollars; copper
from Is To 2O5 million dollars;
gold from 80 to SO million dollars;
lead from IL TO 81 million dollars;
zinc from 146 to 695 million dol
lars; petroleum from "a to 1853
million dollars; natural gas from
215 thousand to 81 million dollars;
cement from $4,000, 900 to $780,
OOO, 900.
Still more striking Illustrations
of the growth of the mineral in
dustry in the United States are
the figures showing that, while in
1880 the total mineral production
in the United States was valued
at 1864, 900, 900. in 1912 the value
of the pig-iron alone was $780,
900, while the value of the
coal production for 1912 was
nearly double the total mineral
output of 80 years ago. In 1880
the value of the mineral products
was approximately Sl,00o.0O0 a
day; In 1912 it was over $6, 900, y
600 day.

BATS FOR FIGHT
ON MOSQUITOES
AN INTERESTING EXPERIMENT
Proves Their Value Can be Made
a Source Of Profit

Employing herds Of bats to de
stroy mosquitoes is the newest pro-
cedure in the campaign against
malaria. It has been put into Of
feet at Mitchell's Lake, about ten
miles from San Antonio, Tex, by
DR.. Charles A. q. Campbell, who
recently communicated an inter-
esting report upon it TO the Inter-
national Institute Of Agriculture
in Rome.
Dir. Campbell observed that the
bats favorite food is mosquitoes
and that he needs a large number
OF them to keep him in good con-
dition. He also inhabits the caves
in which the insects take shelter
inthe day time and he is never
bitten by them.
DIR. Campbell found d little
hunting lodge that had become a
habitation for bats. EARLY one
morning he spread 4 white cloth
upon the floor, after stafing with
rags all places that might shelter
a bat elsewhere than over the
cloth. Then be sat down and
waited for the bats 10 come in.
He counted them rs they entered,
verified bis count when they were
all inside, and then went. awny
for the day. Before dark he re-
turned and again verified his
count as the bats went out on the
nightly hunt. DR.. Campbell gath
cred up all the guano the bats
had dropped during the day..
After washing and filtering, he
sound that the residue was moth
ing but the debris of mosquitoes.
BY repeating this observation
several days running and making
careful count of the undigested
remains Of mosquitoes, DR.. Camp
bell calculated that each bat ate
on the average Of 500 mosquitoes
a day. Now, thought be, an army
of a few thousand bats would be
great assistance in the war against
mosquitoes. He considered how

tested spot and kept there, and

Florida grower, after harvesting
this highly profitable crop, can
compete with the growers Of
other states for the balance Of the
year.
On $4,000 acres of land Flori-
da produced last year $3.50, 900
bushels Of corn--not quite fifteen
bushels per. acre. The United
States produced 2, 552, 100, 600
bushels on 1O5, S25, 900 acres
about twenty-fonr bushels per
acre. The Florida corn was
worth on the farm so cents per
bushel or $l2 per acre, while that
Of the whole country averaged 81
cents per bushel or $l4.8A per
acre. The avearge of the United
States is only S264 more on a
crop that must be the only crop
grown on an acre than the Florida
grower gets on one of a number
of crops. So little wheat il grown
in Florida that the state is not
mentioned in the list Of wheat
producing states. On 43, 900 acres
of land Florida produced $50, 900
bushels of oats worth S435, 900.
Th- United States produced 992,
298, 999 bushels worth $414, $685..
900 on 37,763,00O acres. The
average value Of the prodnct per
acre in Florida was $40. 10, and in
the United States $40. SO per acre.
Florida produced an average of
80 bushels Of potatoes worth $780,
80 per acre. The United States
produces an average Of eighty-one
bushels worth $65.60 per acre,
Florida beat the average of the
country d little more than two to
one.
Florida averaged 1.3 tons of
hay worth S23.67 per acre. The
United States averaged III tons
worth S16.15 per acre. In hay
Florida averaged nearly 30 per
more in value per acre than the
United States.
Florida produced on qn average
OF $40 pounds of tobacco worth
against an average for
the United Ststes Of S94 pounds
worth $S4.13. Florida tobacco
yielded more than three times as
much per acre as that Of the
country taken as whole.
Florida grows cotton = a little
less per ucre than that Of the
other states the figures are not
given, but is Of the Sea Island
variety, worth about twice as
much per pound as the upland
cotton grown in other states.
The average farmer Of the
Middle West could sell 10 acres
# land and with the proceeds
ouy 300 acres in Florida which
would yield him at least as much

Carnivorous fish seem, to be
natural bullies in the light of ex.
periments recently conducted. In
a group occupying a restricted
space there is nearly always one
fish that will torment the others.
Nor is it the largest necessarily.
There were for months, states Il
writer, two smallmouth bass and
nine large-mouth bass confined in
the same tank. The smallest of
the entire party, a small-mouth
bass of nine inches, hectored the
others continually and succeeded
in reserving an entire half of the
tank for himself. The others
we're obliged to huddle themsel-
yes in far corner of the remain
der of the tank. The 10 fish sub
mitted to this treatment from the
very beginning without the sem
blance of a fight. This particular
bully never attempted to injure
its victims. If one of them ven
tured beyond the prohibited line
the autocrat Would swim SLOWLY
forward and with open mouth
push the venturesome fish back to
its quarters. Wien, after a lapse
of some months, the bully died,
one of the fish that had been its
humble subject took the leader
ship and ruled just as absolutely.
But all such despots of the fishy
world do not avoid violence as did
this particular specimen.
Some of them exercise this pow
er with relentless cruelty and 90
to the length of forbidding those
under their control to feed, even
when the tormenting fish have al
ready gorged to the utmost capac-
ity. Neither do bullies learn by
bitter experience to show forbear-
ance. A certain seven. inch trout
is an instance in point. This fish
had nude life miserable for an
aquarium full of trout slightly
smaller than itself. Finally the
hectoring became SO outrageous
that the offender was renewed
and placed in an aquarium con-
tanning II number of trout several
inches larger than itself.
The moment it was dropped in
to a tank its new companions
made rush for it and, huddling
behind an overflow pipe, it escap-
ed only by hairs breadth from
furnishing meal to one or an
other of the inhospitable, occu-
pants. In this place the young
bully remained for three days ia
q state of abject terror, constantly
guarded by relentless group,
anxious for it to move but,a quar-
ter of an inch, so that they could
gobble it up. At length, hoping
that lesson had been learned,
the trout was returned to its first
quarters. Unfortunately, its ter
rifying experience was soon for
gotten. Less than an hour after
It's return the trout was the same
arrogant bully as before.
