Scientific observers claim that on q

near the same color as the sky that
they are totally invisible. The same
condition holds true under many con-
ditions OF cloudiness, the only excep-
ton being when the side of the berg

black against the sky. In other words.
1t is impossible to see white against

Flies Dislike Color of Blue.

A French scientist is authority for
the statement that flies have a dis
tinct objection to the color Of blue.
This was first discovered by a farmer
who keeps a large number OF cows
in several sheds. One of these sheds,
happened to be painted blue on the
inside, and in this one the cows were
little troubled by flies. He blued all
the walls and thus protected all his
cows. French farmers in the vicinity
are now adding a blue coloring to their
whitewash. Their formula is as fol-
lows: To twenty gallons of water
add ten pounds of Stacked lime and
one pound of ultramarine. The walls
are tinted twice during the summer.

Studying Home Makina.

The University of Wisconsin has
constructed on the campus a cottage
fully equipped as a model home. This
is part Of the educational work in
home making. In this cottage every
thing has been worked out to a nicely
to give all facilities for working and
yet to make work less complex.
1t favors the simple life. It will with
out doubt be the model for the build
ing Of numerous simple homes
throughout the state.
In this cottage the girls in the
household science classes study cook
ing, architecture, sanitary plumbing,
lighting and the numerous branches
that go to make up an education con-
corning home life.

poison in the inner or lower cup. I'm
doubtedly a great many codling worms
take their first meal in this inner cup,
and in the matter of practical spray
ing our attention must be centered on
them. Quite obviously the lower cup
cannot be filled with poison without
coating the outer cavity, and the whole
woolly exterior of the apple, and the
leaves as well. On the other hand,
a mist spray that readily covers the
outside of the blossom cannot pene-
trate beneath the stamens, nor a
a coarse spray thrown straight up
from the ground. In about a week
the green sepals fold over and inclose
the calyx cavities. and then it is i'm
possible to give a complete coating to
the inner cup, Notwithstanding that
at the same time the stamen bars are
~Rhriveling.
There is considerable variation in
the ~biossoming period of the different
varieties of apples. There is also
some variation between the falling of
the petals and the unfolding of the
sepals. The central flower of each
cluster is generally more advanced,
and is most apt 20 set fruit. AS these
flowers close first the spraying should
normally be tiped for them. However,
1t sometimes happens that the most
advanced blossoms may be destroyed
by a late FROST and the entire crop
come from belsted lateral blossoms.
Obviously in such a case the time for
the calyx spraying would be abnor-
mally late.
Since the time for calyx spraying
is limited to a week, or but a few days
more, it is necessary to have the spray
outfit ready and waiting on time. II
is this spraying that determines the
number of pumps required for the or
chard. If the orchard is so large thai
the pump is taxed to furnish the

1t is soil fertility which produces big

THE SPIRIT OF LAwLEssNgss.

What has come over the spirit OF law and order
in the city? Why all these attempted assassina-
tions? What is back of them. and who or what Is
instigating them? WHO will be the next victim,
ana what Will be the next means OF attack? Are
they being made by organized hand OF thugs,
or are they simply concidcnces? Is there not
enough aggressiveness In the forces standing for
law and order To hunt down these vioators? Can
our citizens aid in this work and how?
These and other questions are being asked by
those who are standing aghast at the awfulness of
some OF the crimes committed recently. Desperate
diseases require desperate remedies, and we trust
that the city and county authorities shall spare
no effort TO apprehend every person guilty Of such
assaults. and mete out to them the full penalty of
the law That they will do all in their power we
believe. and we think Anderson has some splendid
and fearless officers OF the law
We think 1t would be good investment for the
city TO employ one or more experienced detectives
or pain clothes men, who shall work these
problems. and hunt down the criminals. The
patrol OF the mounted policemen is good, but the
sound of the hoof beats OF the horses always gives
notice OF approach. II occurs to us that it would
he more effective for the city to have some men as
regular employees of the city to act secretly and
without insignia 10 ferret out the haunts OF these
criminals and bring them to justice. The people
arc anxious that the feeling OF security be restored
as soon as possible and do this no efforts must
be spared to bring to justice those who so violate
the laws OF the city. We commend the activity of
the police officials who have been active in their
efforts to catch the criminals, and for their sue
cessc9. We also desire to commend the county
authorities. and urge them to continue their ag-
GreG3ive search for those who violate the law,
either In the city or the county at large.
