IT'S A GOOD SELLER
Margaret Hill McCarter's Latest Book
Making a Big Hit.

The latest book of Importance on
the literary market that has come
from Kansas is the new novel, Van
guards of the Plains" from the pen of
Margaret Hill McCarter. The book is
published by Harper & Bros, and al .
ready its sales are good.
The story is of the old Santa F'e
trail, and is thus wider in its scope
of interest-so far as territory is con-
McCarter, which have dealt with Kan
sas history. The time of the story is
a period beginning with the outbreak
of the Mexican war, and continuing
until few years after the civil war.
Its central theme is the value of the
commercial and business enterprises
in the building up OF new country, and
this idea is worked out in a thrilling
tale of adventures of a trader and his
company on the trail from Fort Leav-
enworth to Santa Fe, followed up by
trail from Indian raiders in later
years. The incidents of the story are
deity woven in a complex pattern
which is followed with increasing in
terest by the reader to the moment
of the unravelling of the tangled
thread.
The book is certainly, from the
sta ndpoint of style, more finished ana
artistic than any of Mrs. McCarter's
previous works: it shows an increas-
ing mastery of the craft of story MAX
ing on the part of the writer. ana es-
pecialIy is this to be noticed in the
drawing of the characters. There IS
diversity and interest in the types pre-
scented. and in this book, as in all OF
Mrs McCarter's stories, the dialogue
is esDeciaIly clever.

NEW K. U. BUILDING
Omaha Contractors Get Contract for
Administration Structure.

The state board of administration
has let the contract for the new state
university administration building to
Olson q Johnson, Omaha contractors
Their bid was $195,125
Work on the new administration
building at K. U. was begun several
years ago. One wing was completed
and the building has stood open and
uncompleted because the legislature
always gave a first thought to the
next years campaign record for econ
omy- In 1915 the building was elimi-
mated from the appropriation meas
ures when the state administration
deadlocked the legislature to cut the
pork from bills. But the pork
OF 1918 became the lamb chops of
1917 and the recent legislature pro-
Vlded $225,0O0 for completion of the
building.

enemy to meet. Its twelve 14-inch
guns fire broadside of 10000 pounds
of steel, which can be directed accur-
ately at mark Is miles distant, The
broadside is 5000 pounds more than

burning engines, which drive it at

FROZEN COMBS AND wATTLEs

Freezing of the combs and wattles of
poultry greatly reduces egg production,
decreases their show qualities and nav
injure them for breeding purposes.
The large pright-combed birds are
most susceptible. The wattles are like
ly to freeze first, since they are apt TO
dip in the water when the birds are
drinking, and freeze while wet. This
can be partially prevented by annoint-
ing the wattles with vaseline. thus keep
ing the water from adhering.
The following is a treatment for
frozen parts: Place the bird in cool,
but not cold room. Immerse the frozen
parts in snow or cold water for ten
minutes. This will take out the frost.
To restore complete circuation, the
parts should be manipulated twice E
day with a mixture of five parts vase
line, two parts of glycerine and one
part of turpentine.-C. S. Anderson,
Colorado Agricultural College, Fort Col
Inns, Colorado.

1T PAYS TO GET
RID OF LARKSPUR

The greatest losses Of cattle on our
mountain ranges are due to poisoning
by larkspur. The question is often
asked: Is it practicable to grub up
larkspur plants by the roots? The fol-
lowing quotation is taken from an arti-
Gle prepared by the forest service and
published in the Reclamation Record of
January, 1917,
'On the Stanislaus national forest
in California. a cattle range of $4,000
acres, which contained a total of 67
acres of larkspur, was selected for an
experiment, and the larkspur was
grubbed out at total cost of $685. In
previous years an average loss of 81
head of cattle had been sustained by
the stockmen using this range. In the
year after the larkspur was dug out
the loss was only 4 head, the saving
being $500. Similar tests on a num-
ber of other national forests have given
similar results and have shown con.
clusively the practicability of greatly
reducing the former losses at relatively
small expense. w. w. Robbins, Colo.
