HEAD HUNTERS GETTING BUSY
Natives of Solomon Island Take Ad-
vantage Of War to Gather
Trophies.

At first sight there does not seem
to be very close connection between
the war in Europe and head hunting
In the Solomon islands. Nevertheless,
the one arises from the other.
Previous to the outbreak of the
war, according to Vancouver Worlds
Sydney IN. S. W. correspondent, Brit
ish, and occasionally German war
ships patrollyed the islands and en-
deavored to keep down cannibalism
among the natives, who are largely of
Papuan or Malaysian stock. How
ever, the requirements for the trans
port of troops led to the recall Of the
British warships the happy head
hunter has been free to follow his own
devious courses.
I'm one raid made by mountain
tribe upon small village near the
coast no less than % heads were Sc
cured. No punishment followed be-
cause the whites were unable TO or
ganize in time. AS a consequence
the raids are growing more dangerous
and, although as yet no Europeans
have been attacked, planters have con-
stantly to keep on their guard.

Russia's Natural Roads.

Russia is almost a readless land. It
Is inconceivable to- the foreign visitor
who has never left the beaten track Of
the railways in Russia how a great en-
pire can have subsisted so long and so
successfully without even pretense at
roads. The secret lies in the fact that
for five or six months In the year ma
ture herself provides roads over the
greater part Of Russia-admirable
smooth, CLASSY roadways over hard
worn snow.
The traffic is further cheapened over
these roads by the substitution of
sledge-runner for the wheel and axle.
This brings the cost of land carriage as
near the cheapness Of water-borne
freight as possible and It is the princi-
pal reason why Russia In the twentieth
century is still roadless land.

IMPORTANT ARTICLE OF FOOD
Butter ls Three-Times-a-Day Necessity
on Observation-Disclosures ls
Great Essential.

Good butter, next to good bread, is
the most important article Of food,
and as 1t is a three-times-a-day ne
cessity on our tables, its proper max
ing Is OF great Importance. Successful
butter-making depends most Of all on
cleanliness OF stables, cows, mixers
and pals, along with a clean, we'll
ventilated dairy room and utensils.
Everyone needs fat, and butter is the
most wholesome as well as most agree
able way of taking it into the system.
Cream absorbs whatever odor sur
rounds it and then passes it on to the
butter, so milk should not be kept in
the kitchen where cooking is done.
and especially If the men Of the family
have the habit Of smoking there, as
this gives 1t very disagreeable taste.
Butter made from well-ripened cream
has the best flavor, and to obtain this
ripening before the cream is so old as
to become rancid, starter" of q
tablespoonful or two of thick sour milk
is usually added to the new milk when
set to raise. q
Butter churned from perfectly sweet
cream has less flavor, but some people
prefer it. It is a mistake to, churn
butter at too high temperature In
order to make 1t come quickly. for 1t
contains more buttermilk, is apt to be
greasy and pale in color. II the cream
must be kept for several days before
churning, it should be in cool place.
If for any reason the churn is not per-
fectly sweet after thorough washing
and scalding, rinse It well with cold
lime water.

A Ton-Weinht Turtle.

That turtle weighing nearly ton"
(fsherman's weight?) lately landed at
Penzance cannot be either the green
turtle, associated with civic feasts, or
the hawks bill, from which we get tor
toise shell. These two belong to trop-
ical seas, and are Of smaller dimen-
sions. The ponderous ''hinseck" caught
Off Scnlly must be "loggerhead" tur-
tie, which occurs in the Mediterranean
and sometimes visits our southern
coasts. The 'loggerhead" is the only
carniverous turtle, and distinguished
from the green variety by size, shape
of head, and number Of plates on the
armor. But he is occasionally cooked
in mistake for his edible cousin, with
disastrous results to the diners.-Lon-

ESTIMATE BRIDGE

ENGINEER FALLS ALSO THINKS
ROAD DAMAGE is HALF MIL
LION MORE.
BACK FROM FLOOD DISTRICT
State Highway Engineer Gives Esti.
! mated Cost Of Rebuilding Roads
and Bridges Destroyed.

Raleigh One million dollars worth
OF bridges have been destroyed
and five hundred thousand dollars
worth OF roads have been damaged
by the torrential rains In, Western
North Caroline. according to the
estimates OF State Highway Engineer
w. s. Falls, who has just returned
from an inspection tour in the coun-
ties embraced in the food district.
Mr.. Falls has prepared a report for
the NGovernor, giving an estimated
cost Of rebuilding roads and bridges
and pointing out the possibility OF
salvage.
He reports that the damage to the
road from the top OF Hickory Nut, Gap
to Asheville amounts to $4,000 The
bridge damage on the Charlotte and
AShevflle highway In Rutherford will
amount to about $4,000, while the cost
OF regarding and repairing the road
way will be between $4,000 and $13,-
900, making total of between $751;
600 and $4,000. The damage to the
Charlotte and Ashevi1le highway I'm
Henderson county. including bridges
and roads. will amount to between
$11,000 and $4,000. It is estimated
that the total cost OF reconstruction
OF the Charlotte and Asheville high
way between Rutherfordton and Ashe-
vile will be about $4,000.
Speaking of the people made desti-
tute by the food, Mr.. Falls said that
what they wanted was not charity but
work. There is a strong sentiment,
he believed, in favor of an appropria-
ton which will be used to pay the
people who work in rebuilding the
roads. The people are anxious to get
the roads in repair and are willing to
work on them, IL by doing so they
can secure a livelihood through the
coming winter. Since crops are de-
stroyed and tourists are leaving the
people must have something to do to
carry them through until next spring,
and such an arrangement would not
only help them financially, but would
insure a rapid reconstruction Of roads
and bridges, It IL pointed out.

The dairy husbandry department OF
the South Dakota State college has
conducted experiments to determine
the effect OF alkali water on dairy
cattle. The results OF these expert
ments, as published In station bulle-
tin LAT, show that the drinking Of
alkan water by dairy cows did not pro-
duce "alkali disease" or even the
slightest indication Of it.

analyses of the vital organs of the
cows used in the experiments revealed
nothing abnormal. Considering the
fact that the strongest alkan well wa
ter was used it is reasonable to con-
clude that the alkali disease Of COWS
is not produced by drinking alkan wa
ter.
This conclusion does not include wa
ter which at times collects in partly
dried-up ponds.
Such water is usually very strong
and cows should not be permitted to
become so thirsty as to be forced to
