WANTS WILD DUCKS KILLED.
Government Asks Citizens to Become
Hunters to Obtain Data.

Citizens are asked to become hunt
ers of wild ducks by the Department of
Agriculture. Numbers of wild ducks of
several species have been cured of a
mysterious duck sickness prevalent
around Great Salt lake, Utah, and have
been released bearing aluminium leg
bands on which it is requested that the
killer or capturer of the bird notify the
department as to the date, place and cir
cumstances of the seizure.
The information will be of service to
the biological survey in its efforts to de-
termine the longevity of individual ducks
and the routes of migration of the species.
The department is particularly anxious
to obtain reports in regard to these birds
to determine their complete recovery
from the malady which has killed hun
dreds of thousands of ducks in Utah.

Bulletin Devoted to White Ants. >

Termites or white ants" which real
ly are not ants at all and only super
ficially resemble them, are receiving the
attention of the Department of AgricuI-
ture, which has just published a bulle-
tin devoted to methods of combating
this pest. The insects primarily attack
woodwork, and cause greatest damage
by weakening or destroying portions of
buildings and other wooden structures
in contact with the ground. They often
destroy large portions of the interior of
pillars without giving any indication of
their presence.

! Why Suffer
From Migraine or

{ DIR. J. J. Caldwell says that this exceed
ingly distressing disease does not shorten
life, but does not appear TO be durable.

to undergo the periodical attacks every few
weeks until they are forty years of age, after
} which the attacks are less frequent. and
} finally disappear entirely. Palliative meas
( ures during the attack are all that 1t is pos
sible to suggest, while care in the diet is the
best preventive measure. An attack may
often be prevented by taking two anti \
I kamnia tablets when the first symptoms APP

Reserves Dispense Rioters.

The reserves plunged into the midst
of the struggling mob and welded
their clubs without mercy. When the
rioters finally fled they left nine pris-
oners-sfX women and three men-in
the hands of the police.
The trouble began when the women
poured out of the hall where Mother
Jones had exhorted them to get the
'scabs' off the cars"
You are too sentimental" she had
cried. staying at home thinking of
dress and trinkets. when you ought to
be out raising hell"
Trooping into the street. the women
booted and jeered at cross town cars in
18th street. Suddenly a chunk of as
phalt was hurled through the window
OF a car halted by a large automobile
truck. This seemed the signal for a
general attack on the car, and in less
than minute every window was shat
tered. patrolman who was on strike
DUTY on the car escorted the forty or
n1ty passengers into the street and
tnen charged alone into the crowd of
1eering women. He was helpless. how
