Temper of Allies Bitter,
There is complete calm tonight but
the temper of the allies over what they
claim to be most flagrant breach Of

Germans in the use of asphyviating
bombs, is extremely bitter. From the

who only recently joined the army,
there is the bitterest invective against
The Germans.

Fighting Is Violent.
The Daily Mail published a story to-
day that Field Marshall Won linden
burg, hero of the fighting on the east
ern front, was directing this latest and
greatest German drive in Belgium.
The story, however, is not confirmed
from any other source and is not gem
orally credited. The report originated
| from the fact that two, and possibly
as many as five first line army CORPS
have been withdrawn from Poland and
are now in action against the allies in
Belgium.
Between the Meuse and Moselle the
Germans are directing attacks toward
Saint Rmy following the failure of
assaults against Calonne, il was stated
today. Fighting of the most violent
nature is underway but the French are
holding firm.
An Amsterdam dispatch today stated

Roland Garros, the French aviator
captured by the Germans, had escaped

IMPORTANCE OF MILK HOUSE
!DihicuIt to Properly Care for Dairy
] Products in Summer Without
Suitable Building.

During the hot weather it is almost
impossible to care for dairy products
,on the farm without suitable milk
house O. E. Reed of the Kansas Ag-
ricultural college offers the following:
Milk must be produced under sani-
Itary conditions, and to do this the milk
house should be either separate from
the dairy barn or arranged in such a
way that odors from the barn do not
get to it.
A 10 by 12-foot milk house is a good
size for the average farm. 1t should
he built with a c=1nent floor and have
"a drain at the center to carry away
the waste. The equipment should con-
sist of a refrigerating tank, 80 by 80
inches, inside measure. This will ac-
Icommodate four milk cans. There
should also be cooler, aerator, wash
and separator.
A windmill on the side nearest the
trefrigerating tank will pump cold wa
ter from the we'll into one corner OF

ARE YOUR COWS EFFlCIENT7
Milk Scales and Babcock Tester Es-
sential in Conducting Successful
Dairy-Discard Eoarders.

Putting the efficiency test to COWS
with the milk scales and the Bah
cock tester is one of the essentials
of conducting a successful dairy. When
feed is high in price farmer cannot
afford to have boarders in his dairy
barn who eat up more in feed than
their milk yield is worth. The Bah
cock test will slow these delinquent
COWS in their true light, and the milk
scales will put the clincher on the
argument. Testing COWS will give
some farmers a big surprise. Some
time the COW that looks like the poor
est creature in the lot is the best
putterfat producer.
Cow testing associations among
idairymen afford the most economical
use of the Babcock tester and the
ScaIes.

WRlTEWAsH FOR THE TREES
Excellent Protection Afforded to Sark
From SInburn and Eorers-
Keeps Rabbits Away.

Whitewash is an excellent protec
! ton to the bark from both sunburn
and borers. 1t is particularly valu'
able for young trees, as after trees
reach a good size the branches gen
orally become sufficiently large and
the foliage sufficiently thick to shade
I the bark and prevent the injury that
/ the hot sun would otherwise do.
! The best time to apply the white
wash is in the early spring, or before
the sun has become too hot and yet at
time when the danger of heavy rains
washing off the lime is passed. 1t is
not well to delay too long or the sun
burn may occur in clear weather be.
tween rains.
There are dozens of whitewash reel,
pes, all with merit, some more dur
able than others, and durable white
wash is generally to be desired. For
fruit trees whitewash can be made
by the addition of tallow, which is
durable and also protection against
rabbits. Such a wash can be made
with 80 pounds Of lime, 4 pounds OF
tallow and 5 pounds of salt. The salt
; is dissolved III the water used in
shaking the lime and the tallow added
to the hot mixture, which is thinned
to the desired consistency before using.
+; Spoiled fat or grease of any kind
can be substituted for the tallow and
the amount can be increased II de-
sired. If there is danger of attract
ing animals by the salt, 1t can be left
out.

The difference is in the COW, rather

Immediately after milking, strain
the milk from the pail through three

they do not give enough milk to pay
for their feed.

recognize them as friends. Thus many
of these helpful little insects are de-
stroyed, when they should be carefully
protected.
One of the most conspicuous ex-
amples in history of controlling pest
by means of lady-beetles occurred in
California some twenty-five years ago.
An Australian insect known as the
futed or cottony cushion scale ap-
peared in California on orange trees
and spread so rapidly over the state
that the extensive orange growing in
dustry was threatened. BY request,
Mr.. Albert Koebele was appointed
agent of the United States to attend
the Melbourne exposition, and while
in Australia paid special attention to
searching for the insect enemies OF
the fluted scale. A lady beetle was
found feeding upon the scale and
specimens were collected, and five
separate lots (altogether about 500
specimens) were brought from Aus
tralia to California and placed upon
the scale-infested trees. The lady
beetles multiplied and their progeny
were soon transported to each orange
growing section. In a few years the
cottony cushion scale had been
brought under complete control by the
Australian lady-beetle; it has never
since done much damage on the Pa
cific coast, and the orange industry
still flcurishes.
In less striking manner and on a
smaller scale our native lady-beetles
are continually demonstrating their
ability to clean up shrubs, trees and
even orchards which were severely at
tackled by plant lice. There are about
ESQ different kinds of lady-beetles in
this country.

FRIENDS OF PLANT GROWERS
"Lady-Buss" Feed Upon PIant-Lice,
Scale Insects and Other Pests
Entitled to Protection.
(By W. E. BRITToN.)

The beetles commonly known as
lady beetles, '1ady BIRDS" "lady-bugs'
or plant-louse beetles, are among the
very best friends of the farmer or
plant grower, because they feed in
both larval and adult stages upon
plant-lice, scale-insects, and the small
larvae and eggs of other and larger
noxious insects. DR.. S. A. Forbes ex-
amined the stomach contents of 80
specimens, and found that one-fourth
of their food was composed Of plant
lice; though they ate some vegetable
food, such as pollen and spores of
fungi, a greater portion of their food
consisted of insects.
Though many persons are more or
less familiar with lady-bugs, some are
not acquainted with their habits or
life histories, and do not, therefore,

back to their source it was generally
found that the author was Representa-
tive Rodenberg. for whose benefit at
the Sunday morning service Doctor
Mackechnie read the tragic story of
the fate of Ananias.
One OF the alarms was in tie form
of a wireless from Honolulu stating
that the Hessian fly was on the ram
page and advising the party to go on
to Australia or Japan. Another wire.
less advised the party that automo-
bile blight prevailed in Honolulu and
that all but the aged and infirm would

the hotel, a short distance Of three
miles. ...,.
:. A report current and generally be-
lieyed was that each member Of the
party would have to be .vaccinated be-
fore being allowed to land. There were
many protests against this. especially
when it was further stated that it
would not be safe to indulge in surf
bathing within a week of the time Of
vaccination. The report that caused
the greatest indignation was that one
OF the magnstes Of the island owned
a franchise of the entire shore line
and that a fee of SO would be re-
quired of each individual who wished
to try surf bathing. So deep was the
resentment against this that several
senators and representatives threat
ened that there should be a congress

A story, also. traced back to "Rody,'
was that ON account Of the death Of
one of the twins on the boat-one of
the twin screws--eight hours had been
lost during the day in making re-
pairs and, q, consequently. Honolulu
would not be reached until Monday
evening. Nothing but the solemn as
servations of the ships officers served
to discredit this bit of news.
