as the nucleus for this years eleven
and the sophomore class is placing al
his disposal about 20 very promising
looking candidates
Michigan'S football prospects are

of his amazing ground gaining pow

almost unanimous vote for a baCkheld

Michigan Has Seasoned Team.
Most of these men were green
when TIE season opened last year, bur
before the end Of November they had
developed into wonderful players The
seasoning of 1914 surely will add
greatly TO their ability i'm 1915 and
YOSt won't need to look around for
any tacklers or ends-and he'll need
just one new guard
Yost. however. needs center to
take the place OF Raynsford who was

1914 probably will send him both and

From last years second team. Yost
has. as candidates for the line, Rehor,
Norton. Willard. Neiman. Skinner and
Warner. For backfield candidates he
has Bastian. Roehm, Zeiger. Calvin.

Bixler. Brown Schultz Foster and

FIDDLERS AND DRUMMERS
OF THE INSECT WORLD

NYATURALISTS assert that the in
~ sects which produce sounds audi
BILE to human ears may be roughly di-
vided into two classes-flddlers and
drummers. The grasshopper. it APP
pears. is a drummer and makes music
by scraping its forewings against the
rows of spinelike teeth that ornament
its thighs. The katydid also plays an
insect fiddle. 1t produces it's notes by
rubbing the inner side of the hind legs
over the front wings.
The locust. on the other hand, is a
drummer, and loud one. His drum is
formed by membrane situated at the
base of the forewing, and he can make
a forest ring with it. The cicada, or
seventeen-year locust, carries a drum
at the base of the abdomen, and makes
with II a noise that seems to be quite
as terrifying in the insect world as
that produced by the gorilla pounding
its chest is among wild beasts 1t is
said that the cicada sometimes fright
ems away it's enemies by the rattle of
its drum.
There are other drumming insects
that make good music, but the violin

Synthetic Perfumes.

IT HE most important discoveries in
the field of synthetic perfumes
have been made during the last forty
years. In 1876 the synthesis of the act
i've principle of vanilla was made.
few years later heliotropine was OBJ
| tanned by the oxidation of a by
product, a species Of camphor waste.
Terpineol, or terpino1. Is one of the es
sential constituents of many perfumes
lilac, lily Of the valley, syringa, cape
jasmine. etc Chemically speaking, it is
a near relation of the essence of tur-
pentine: one molecule of essence of tur-
pntine added to one molcule of water
gives terpnieol.
Perfume manufacturers use different
means Of producing terpineol Among
the different patented processes are
treatments with sulphuric azotic and
citric acids. II chemist has essence Of
turpentine. little oil and aqua fortis
he can produce delightful perfume

lily of the valley. lilac and cape jas
to the proportions of the chemical used
Synthetic violet perfume has been
on the market for about twenty years.
1t is made by condensing citrol can
essence obtained from lemon). Indian
vervaine, or lemon verbena, with COM
mon acetone. a body much like pyro-
ligneous acid Synthetic violet extract
is manufactured in large quantities and
SOLO pure or mixed with the true eS-
sence of violet. So far, 1t appears, no
chemist has succeeded in counterfeit
ing musk, but perfume makers produce
bodies which. though very different
from musk chemically, hold the pow
erful scent OF musk.
The basis of this counterfeit is tolu-
enc. which Is obtained from benzine
and coal tar 1t is changed to a some-
what complex carburet, which Is sub
jected to the action Of azotic and sui
phuric acids. The product thus obtain
ed, diluted with inert matters, Is sold
under the name of musk.
The list of synthetic perfumes Is a
lengthy one. 1t contains limitations of
all the known perfumes, but despite
the efforts to initiate exactly they are
nearly always inferior to the true es-
sences. Many perfumers boast that
they use nothing but true essences, but
nearly all the cheaper perfumes give
hints OF synthesis.
The discovery OF methods of making
artificial perfumes has not interfered
with the culture of the flowers former
ly exclusively used in making per-
fumes. On the contrary. as the synthet-
ic processes have multiplied and de-
veloped the true essences of the flowers
have been more extensively used by
manufacturers for high-priced sellers.
Though there is room for all the arti-
hcial essences of low extraction, the
natural products. used for thousands
of years. are In no danger Of being su-
perseded by the artificial product.

the rectitude Of their pathological

fact that the national government an
nounces itself friend of the buzzard
may be taken by many Americans to
indicate that cordial relations exist be-

II a man draws this inference he does
1t at his own risk.
The buzzard, though one of the lofti-
est and easiest flyers among the birds.
is not esteemed as one of the most
beautiful when viewed at close range.
He is one of those numerous creatures
to whom distance lends enchantment.
Then, too. he has personal habits and
tastes or appetite which do not COM
mend him to delicate and sensitive
men or TO persons of esthetic tenden-
cies. 1t has been acknowledged that. in
certain ways the buzzard is a useful
bird. and 1t might be reasonable to
class him as more useful than orna-

InOSe men VINO nave d more OF less
intimate knowledge of the buzzard
know that in his selection of food he
is careless, or at least that he does not
exercise the nice discrimination which
many persons do. He seems to be ig-
norant or Indifferent about germs and
ptomaines. Perhaps this Indifference
is justified, because SO far as the med
ical records show no buzzard has fallen
a victim to ptomaine poisoning. But
there is no accounting for tastes. and

buzzard does discourages flies to just
that extent.
The biological survey in Washington
came to the assistance of the buZzard
when he was sorely in need of friends.
He was accused in some states of be-
ing a party to the dissemination of hog
cholera, foot and mouth disease and
other maladies of live stock. The
charge has been made against the buzz
zard without giving him a chance to
defend himself. 1t is quite possible
that not single buzzard was ever
made acquainted with the charge laid
against him. In a number of the states,
especially in the south, 1T has been
proposed in the legislatures to de-
nounce the buzzard as pest and to
extermnate him. Perhaps some legis-
latures have already taken such action.
but If they have they will probably
repent their rash and unworthy precip-
itateness.
In a good many parts of the south
the buzzard should be rewarded in
stead of punished. He is really the

MI AN may with more or less discom-
AVA fort endure the climate of any
part of the globe wherein he lives On
the other hand, plants and animals can
not exist in temperatures far higher OF
lower than those to which they have
become accustomed. Man moves from
one extreme to the other with. gener-
ally speaking, but small physical dis
comfort. Explorers visit the sands OF
Africa and the ice fields of the north,
returning to their normal environ
ments with, in some cases. a distinct
improvement in physical condition. Man

earth, with the exception of the imme-
date vicinity of the poles.
Men of science contend that the low
est temperatures at the earth's surface
are not found directly at the poles. but
at some distance to the south of the
north pole and at some distance to the
north of the south pole. Then, too. it
is claimed, the greatest degree of heat
is not, as might naturally be supposed,
to be encountered at the equator. but
at some distance to the north and to the
south of that line.
The records and statistics show that
the coolest place on earth is in Siberia.
The lowest temperature ever recorded
in the open air was 80 dgrees below
zero (Fahrenheit). at Werchan]ansk,
central Siberia. January Is, 1885. The
highest temperature is set down at

heat and cold afford range of tempera-
ture covering the whole lnhabltabie
world of PA degrees, or two degrees

point People who inhabit these places
of extreme heat and cold are found to
be exceptionally healthy. and live to
ripe old age.
In this country the extreme range or
heat and cold is not so great but one
may live in comparative comfort in any
section; yet the same conditions apply
to animal and plant life here as prevail
throughout the world. Animals ana
plants that survive the winters of the
south could not endure the winters OF
the north.
The greatest of the extremes of heat
and cold in the United States are found
in the western states. from the Dakotas
and Montana southwark to Texas ana
Arizona. The temperature in the north
west during the winter months IRE
quenkly drops to 80 or 40 degrees be-
low zero. and occasionally runs below
60'degrees, while the heat of summer in
the central west and southwest touches
100 degrees or more. Regardless of
such extremes, the climatic conditions

both successes and failures. The point
of view of this farmer is wholly mod
