HAVE BEES COLOR sENsE7
Scientists Say Their Selection 10 A.
Fastidious ~ Woman's-Some
Interesting Experiments.

A bee Is rs fastidious as q woman
In its selection of colors. Bees love
flowers, not only for their honey but
for their color. Roses are not white
and pink, and violets purple merely
for your pleasure. They have these
attractive frocks, as we'll as their de
licious perfumes. to attract the bees
The yellow dust Of the flowers is
the pollen. It IL sometimes sent from
flower to flower by the wind, but it is
usually carried by the bees. There
fore. flowers have to wear their most
pleasing colors to WOO and win these
messengers Of life and love. This is
not mere poetic fancy. for q number
OF able scientists have experimental
at different times to find what colors
bees prefer. and have placed their
preferences In this order: Blue, green.
orange. plain red, white and yellow.
II blue 10 the bees favorite color.
Why u It that there are 30 few blue
howers? Scientists answer that Ill
blue flowers have descended from
green ancestors. They have passed
through stages Of white or yellow and
generally red before becoming blue.
Violets arc white and violet, though
yellow In their original color. For
the same reason there are pink, white.
red and yellow roses. They have all
passed through the different stages OF
color development It IL commonly
supposed that blue flowers are de-
scendsd from white or yellow ances.

MEASURING BULLET SPEED
Scientists Use Delicate Apparatus to
Make Calculations Covering Twenty
Niles q Minute.

How fast does q bullet travel! The
highest velocity ever given to q can
non ball is 1925 feet per second. This
Is equal to a mile in little more than
three seconds, or nearly twenty miles
q minute.
A rife bullet does not travel so fas,
as . cannon ball, the average rate be-
ing 1,275 feet per second. This mat
ter Of speed IL tested In Q very inter
esting way.
A long wooden shed is used, in
which q distance of exactly 100 feet
has been carefully marked OF. At each
end Of this space is a stand something
like . target. with . large circular
opening where the bulls eye should
be. Across each opening is stretched
a small electric wire. connected with a
delicate instrument in another room
The rifle from which the firing is
done Is SO aimed that the bullet which
dies from 1t cuts both wires. Obvi.
ously, the difference in time between
the cutting Of the two wires marks
the speed Of the bullet through that
When the first viii = is cut an cleo
trio current Is broken and a rod falls,
moving pointer on q slide in its de-
scent. The breaking Of the second
wire acts in the same manner on an
other set Of rods, slides and pointers
The difference in the marks made
by the pointers on the slides makes It
possible to estimate the difference in
their time Of falling. and from these
calculations accurate figures a. to
speed are obtained.

OUR GREAT NEW INDUSTRY
An Unprecedented Demand for High

In response to the unprecedented de-
mand for high explosives q new indus

suddenly sprang into existence in the
United States In 1915. Benzol and

rom which explosives, dyestufs and

tured. are oils similar to gasoline In
appearance and smell and are present

when It IL made into coke. Before the
European war the demand In the UNI
ted states for these products was %
small and the price 20 low that but one
company engaged IN coke-making
sought to recover them on Q large
scale. Late in 1914 the price Of ban
zoi. and particularly toluol. rose 10
such . point That many other com
panies began to build plants to recover
those oils. which wore then being

100000 tons Of coal were carbonized In

rrse aark Glue erush.

An excellent glue brush for the cab.
netmaker or carpenter can be made
from a piece of elm tree bark, which
may usually be found in the yard Of
a furniture factory. wagon shop or
any hardwood lumber yard. With q
sharp knife whittle away the brittle
outer bark down to the white 6ber
or inner side Of the bark Of which the
brush Is to be made. Cut piece of
this to the length and width required
for the brush. Soak one end Of this
piece in hot water for a few minutes
Lay the water soaked end on hard
substance. such as piece of iron or
hard wood. and beat 1t out with a
hammer. dipping it In the water oc-
casionally to keep 1t thoroughly wet
The beating will cause the tough fbers

MOUSE BITE KILLS BABY
Slight Wound Infects Washington, o.
c., Infant With Blood Poisoning
Coroner Warns People.

There are occasional instances
where rodents, both the house rat and
mouse. have been known to invade
the bed or crib occupied by young chill
dren. especially infants when left
alone sleeping. Such an incident il
recorded In the death Of William Web
ster Jackson, son Of Mr.. and Mrs.
William w. Jackson of Washington.
whose death is reported in the vital
statistics Is due to q virulent blood
poisoning from the infection Of .
mouse bite on the child's neck.
One night while the infant, only two
weeks old. was sleeping in his crib be-
side his mothers bed mouse crawled
into the crib and. biting the baby on
the neck. inflicted what was then
thought to have been an Insignificant
wound. A simple application was made
to the scratch or wound inflicted by
the little rodent, and nothing more
was thought of it for the time being.
However, the bite resulted in an in.
lection which spread 50 rapidly that
physicians found 1t impossible to save
the child's life. A high fever level
oped, and the child died.
Coroner J. Ramsay hewitt, who In
vestigated the case, = is satisfied that
the child's death was directly trace
able to the bite Of the mouse In COM
menting upon the case he said:
1T is fact widely known among
medical men that rats and mice carry
disease, and householders should make
every effort to rid their houses Of them

protection. Cats, likewise, are men.

NEW YORK, March S.-Miss Edith
Molla Bjurstedt when the two tennis play
ers met yesterday in the second round of
the women's invitation indoor tournament
at Heights Casino. The champion was in
better form than in her first round match
against Mrs. Spencer F. Weaver. and Miss
Handy. although counted on to play a
strong game against the Norwegian girl,
could not cope with the hard driving and
clever placing of her opponent. Miss Blur
stedt- in her first match had a tendency
to get her drives too low, but yesterday
she sent them tipping across the net
speedy and true.
One game was Miss Handy's total in
the opening set. Miss Bjurstedt started
service and won her game. Then Miss
Handy managed to win her own service
went quickly to Miss Bjurstedt. Miss
total points for the set were
only IL.
Miss Handy in the second set steadied
a bit and managed to hold her own
through four games, each player winning
on her own service. In the fifth game
Miss Bjurstedt broke down Miss Handy's
service. and the Norwegian player met
with only feeble opposition in the re-
manning three game.

THINKS JESS IMPROVED
Champions Ring Tactics Surprise
Rodel, His New Spar
ring Partner.

NEW YORK, March s.-Jess Willard
put in some good work yesterday at
the Pioneer Sporting Club. George
(Boer) Rodel made his first appearance
as one of his sparring partners. AS
Rode1 crawled through the ropes, Will
lard smiled across the ring and re-
marked: I've seen you before" He
had. They had faced each other three
times in the ring. AS a matter of fact.
Rodel was the last man to face Willard
before the latter won the heavyweight
championship from Jack Johnson.
Rodel actually reused big Jess. He
had him putting and painting about the
ring in a way that will do the cham
pion much good, for there is no doubt
about Willard needing work. On leav-
ing the ring Rodel did not hesitate to
express his surprise at what he called
remarkable improvement in Wizards
ring tactics over the last time they
met.
Don't let anybody tell you," he said,
that the champion has no guard. It's
better by 100 per cent anyway than
when I faced him in Atlanta almost
two years ago. He is in better condi-
ton, too, than I expected to find him,
and / guess he'll be ready when the
bell rings"
