Grande. At first thought this pre-
cludes any astronomical use, but the
ingenious theorist has an explanation
for even this condition of affairs.
If we grant the former inhabitants
the use of an instrument of reflection,
which need be no more complicated
than a plain bowl of water, then it is
easy to imagine the medicine man in
the dark of the night, when he comes
to a certain point in his ceremony,
putting a bowl of water at a prede-
termined point on the plaza outside
and so rejecting the light of some
bright star in the northern heavens
up thru these holes into the central
room of the Casa Grande.
The problem is now being studied as
to which bright star near that par
ticular angle could have been moved
from that exact angle by the preces-
sion of the equinoxes, and it is hoped
by this point to establish the date
when the Casa Grande was inhabited
How long ago this was is uncer-
tain, moderate guesses beginning with
600 years and more radical guesses
going to 1000 or more years.
The Casa Grande itself, however,
ancient tho it is, was the most recent
of it's group. The evidence seems to
show that an older group Of ruins was
abandoned about the time the Casa
Grande was built.

For many years two pairs Of holes
in the walls of the celebrated pre-
historic Casa Grande ruin in Arizona
have given rise to much speculation
not only on the part of tourists but
of archaeologists also. The holes are
about an inch and half in diameter
and are bored thru walls four feet
thick. They occur in pairs, each pair
on opposite sides of a great central
room. The holes in each pair are in
line with each other, so that one
standing in dark first floor room
behind the central room may look
thru the innermost hole, across the
central room, and thru the outermost
hole at the sky. One pair points due
east The other pair points north at
a declining angle.
The interesting people who built this
most ancient of pueblos have left no
traces behind them. One can only
imagine. by analogy from better
known neighborhood races of latter
period, what their civilization may
have been. That they were deeply

AMERICA SHOULD PROFIT BY ALLIES
EXPERIENCE, SAYS MISS JOY HIGGINS
Safeguarding of Women Industry Imperative While They
Serve the Nation During the War; Mistakes of the
Past Are Being Corrected n
American

"The women of the United States
will make as extraordinary records in
the war industries as the men are
making every day in the actual battles
of the war;" declares Miss Joy Mont
gomery Higgins, a member of the la
Dor commission which went abroad
last spring in response to an invi-
tation from the ministry of informa-
tion of the British government.
While Miss Higgins was abroad she
visited the munitions plants in France
and Great Britain and saw the battle
troops as well as those held by the
French and English. Since her return
from Europe she has spoken in many
cities of the West, where she has
found the most patriotic and enthusi-
astic spirit.
"At last, labor is coming into its
own, here as well as abroad" Miss
Higgins says. "At last, labor is hon.
ored as it should be and the workers
have a chance to prove their heroism,
their loyalty, and their power to con-
tribute to the national welfare. Here
on this side of the ocean we are but
just beginning to face the facts of the
war and the first great fact is that
women must do their part just as cour-
ageously as the men are doing theirs.
Il think our American women have
realized that their time of complete
service would come just as it came to
the men Of the nation, and they have
been preparing for it. They know that
it is here now. Everywhere / see them

same will to win that has enabled the

Use Ran Doll Tester.

The rag dolr seed tester, simple
and reliable method OF determining
germination, win tell you whether your
seed corn is fit to plant. This method
Of testing corn is described in detail
in Farmers Bulletin 948 of the de-
partment of agriculture. Briefly it
consists of a strip of cloth, preferably
bleached muslin, 16 inches wide and
from to feet long. The cloth
should be marked off into squared sec
tions and the squares all numbered.
The ears TO be tested should also be
given corresponding numbers. Six or
more kernels should be selected from
different parts of each ear, and placed
in the proper section. When the test
er is filed, fold over each side SO that
the edges meet in the center, roll up
and soak the tester for a few hours
in lukewarm water. Drain the excess
water off, and place the dolls in
warm place to germinate. They should
be covered with a wet cloth to keep
them moist, and in about five days
should be sufficiently well terminated
to show their fitness for seed.

the department does not believe the

nity action should be directed to this
