A farmer in Old Lyme has been fined SIS. 60 for failing to report the killing of deer, on his premises, to the game protector. A few doses of the same remedy might have a good effect in other parts of the state. It is officially estimated that not more than one-half the deer killed are reported to the Com- mission, and Litchfield County has the reputation of being the worst offender in his regard.

MAY YET DYE SILK IN LEAF

Silk is the secretion of two glands Of
the silkworm lying alongside the digest
i've canal. These glands, which consist
of numerous coiled tubes, terminate in
q spinning-wart. From common orr
flee in the spinning-wart the secretion,
of the consistency Of honey, issues forth
promptly hardening into thread on
exposure to the air. Usually the silk
is colorless on leaving the body of the
silkworm, but sometimes it is straw
yellow or greenish. Whyi The answer
has been q matter Of long dispute.
Some claim that the larva itself pro-
duces the color; others ascribe it I'd
impurities acquired upon secretion;
still others are of the opinion that the
green color of the leaves of the null
berry tree is the cause. Two French
scientists, Levrat and Conte, determ-
ined to settle the dispute. They fed
silkworms on mulberry leaves which
had been saturated with non-poisonous
anahne red and aniline blue, With
what resulti Not only were the silk
worms turned red or blue, but their
secreted silk assumed the respective
colors. Who knows but some day we

HAWAIIAN SINGERS
n1nla 5tl lsrf f..sn -, .x...

Hawaiian music IL growing more
popular every year, and the demand
for Hawaiian musical organizations is
very great For more than forty years
the Hawaiian government has main
tained military band, and thirty
years ago, when wholly composed of
native musicians, the Royal Hawaiian
Band won highest honors among the
bands attending a Knights Tempiars
conclave in San Francisco. This pop
ularity has been continually increasing,
and the Hawaiian music was one Of
the most attractive features of the
Panama Pacific Exposition during the
summer Of 1915.
Besides a Philharmonic society. q
symphony orchestra and many church
choirs, Honolulu has number of mu-
sical organizations. These have devel-
oped many wonderful musicians. The
voice of the native Hawaiian is sweet
and plaintive, and much feeling Is ex-
pressed in their songs.
The ocean breeze, the flowers and
sunshine, the presence Of beauty every
where, have produced an intense love
for music among these people, and
their songs abound in illusions to
mountains, rains. seas, oceans and
flowers. The melody and sentiment
expressed in their songs are best rem
dered on string Instruments, which
they use almost exclusively. Besides
the ones with which. we are the most
familiar, there are others that may be
considered as having originated in
Hawaii. The most popular of these
are the ukelele and tarapatch, resem-
bling in shape q very small guitar.
