linist, Mime. Guilbert
and Others

The large audience which gathered
at Carnegie Hall yesterday afternoon
upon the occasion OF the American
debut Of Raoul Vidas. French violinist,

1t discovered in him violinist who
will make his contemporaries. even in
the first rank. look to their laurels,
If he maintaips the high standard which
his playing yesterday revealed He
came not as the heralded product of
masters hand, but rs an artist stand
ing upon his own merits for recogni-
ton. That recognition was not long
delayed.
Boyish in appearance, but with q
certain dignity, entirely at his ease. but
without bravado. before his programme
had progressed far he showed himself
we'll grounded musician and an artist
Of sensibility.
Seldom has newcomer received q
more enthusiastic reception. lie was
welcomed with vociferous applause and
shouts OF approval.
Mr.. Vidas has to remarkable degree
the essentials Of the violinist's equip
ment-an agile left hand. flexible and
admirably controlled bowling, sureness
Of intonation. pleasing tone, of fine
sorority in the lower register, clear
ness and brilliance in the upper, dis
tinction in phrasing and warmth of feel
ing tempered by good taste.
His performance Of Corell's LA
Folia," variations on an air Of battling
simplicity. with which he opened his
programme, proclaimed him at once q
musician of parts.
Other numbers were Concerto Russo
by Lalo; the Andante from the G
minor sonata of Tartini; Wienlaw

added number of short pieces. even,
at the insistence of the encore seekers
appearing again after the stage lights
lad once been extinguished. He was
ably accompanied by L. 7. Gutenberg.
We feel safe in predicting that the
future holds much for this young man.

Plants and Insects.

Some plants are very accommodate.
ing to the insects, but not voluntarily.
For instance, the oak and the willow,
and other variety of trees, grow gals
that furnish homes for the young OF
the insects and store up a supply of
food that lasts until maturity. A mum.
Der Of hymenopterons insects, or crea.
lures with membraneous wings, lay
their eggs In the bark of trees. While
depositing the eggs they secret tiny
drop Of poison with the ova. This liz.
uid Is the signal to the tree to hurry
up and construct gall. Several lay.
ers of cells swell out Of the tree, max.
ing a comfortable cabin for the larvae
that will soon be Matched. But the
tree does more than this. 1t stores up
in the inside Of the gall a quantity OF
starch, and the larvae now have ample
food until the day arrives when they
viii wing their way into the world.

cessltates the employment Of some
other method of selection. In the
breeding Of high producing animals
through several generations it has
been observed that there are certain
characteristics of the conformation
which are correlated with large pro-
duction. These characteristics are
namely: G) Extreme angular form,
carrying no surplus flesh, but in good
physical condition. (2) Prominent de-
velopment of the udder and veins. (3)
The symmetrical development Of the
barrel with large capacity. After one
becomes familiar with these external
characteristics it is possible to select
cows producing 300 pounds of fat per
year from those producing $50 pounds.
The difficulty comes in picking the ami
NAL that will produce 500 pounds of
fat per year compared to the one pro-
ducing 400 pounds.
The selection of animals by this
method is rather uncertain. Until rec
ords are kept Of more animals or some
other means devised for selection, the
selection by type should be used and
it is up to everyone interested in
dairy cattle to become familiar with it.

POWDER HENS BY MACHINERY
Discarded churn Makes Application
Of Insect Powder Easy and
Quite Effective.
By c. s. ANDERSON. Colorado Agri-
cultural CollePe. Fort ColIinsA

tBy c. s. ANDERSON, Colorado Agr1-
cultural College. Fort Collins.)
A hen may be healthy, well fed, and
well housed but If she is Overrun
with lice and mites she cannot remain
a profitable producer or a good mother
for the young chicks.
Under ordinary conditions, lice and
mites can be kept down by frequently
spraying the poultry houses, roosts,
dropping boards and nests and by pro-
viding good busting bath for the
birds. When these precautions fail, in
dividual treatment must be followed
by busting the birds with some good
insect powder. In large flocks this Is
very laborious, and the following use
of an old discarded churn may help to
solve the problem.
Put cupful or so Of insect powder
in the churn. Next put in the birds
one at time and turn the churn gent,
ly for q half-dozen revolutions. If the
powder contains carbolic acid or some
other strong irritant, 1t will be well to
protect the birds eyes by slipping q
small cloth sack over their heads.
The rotation Of the churn causes
the bird to relax and the feathers to
open, thus letting the insect powder
get well into the skin.

WOMEN SUFFERERS MAY
NEED SWAMP ROOT

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney and bladder trouble and
never suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in healthy
condition, they may cause the other or
gans to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss of am
bition, nervousness, are often times symp-
toms of kidney trouble.
Don't delay starting treatment. DR..
Kilmers' Swamp Root, physicians pre-
scription, obtained at any drug store, may
be just the remedy needed to overcome
such conditions.
Get medium or large size bottle i'm
mediately from any drug store.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, n. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

LEGUME HAYS ARE VALUABLE
Utilization of Alfalfa or Clover Partly
Solves Dairyman's Prob
lem of Feed.

(By G. E. WEAVER. University Farm.
st. Paul, Minn)
One hundred and seventy-five pounds
of good alfalfa or clover hay is worth
as much as 100 pounds of the ordinary
grain feeds. With the present prices
for feeds ranging from 500 ton for
bran to $85 per ton for corn, the aver
age cost for 100 pounds of grain is
about $2.75. The cost of its food
equivalent in the form of 175 pounds
of legume hay is $2.15. This much hay
will produce 200 pounds of milk and
effect saving in feed cost Of 60 cents.
which is at the rate Of 80 cents for
each hundred pounds.
The utilization of such hay partly
solves the dairyman's problem in these
days of high feed cost and milk In
veStigations.

olds had heard enough. She had
dreamed Of him, too; that was more
than he had hoped for.
The boarding house mistress did not
object to having Violet moved to the
hospital. 1t was relief to be lessened
of her care. She would have sent her
long before, had not the girl, afraid
of mourning an expense she could not
meet, pleaded to stay.
1t required skillful operation to
bring her back to health. The trouble
was in her throat and the thought
that her power of speech depended on
his skill nerved Doctor Reynolds to
keener effort. Careful care for days
rewarded him at length by signs of i'm
provement, and once on the right road,
Violet's recovery was speedy one.
She was sitting in the sunroom, con-
valescent, when Doctor Reynolds one
day entered.
"Tell me, DOCTOR" she asked, "why
were you so kind to me? The nurses
tell me your operation saved my life"
He tried to smile his way out of an
explanation. ut would never have

WAR RATIONS FOR CHICKENS
Corn Is Probably Most Important Food
for Poultry and Should Not
Be Overlooked.

In spite Of the high cost Of feeds
flock of good fowls will continue to re-
turn a handsome profit, because Of
the great advance in price Of eggs and
poultry. There. Is no cheap ration.
because all grains and feeds have ad.
vanced. Corn is probably the most
important food for poultry and should
not be left out Of the ration.
Cracked corn and oats may well
constitute the bulk of the hard grain,
using equal quantities by weight Of
each. A little barley, say 20 to 25 per
cent, will add variety, but wheat is
out of the question. Low grades and
screenings that do not contain too
many weed seeds may also be used.

TURKEYS ALWAYS IN DEMAND
Because Of Constant Decrease in Num-

Profits in Them.
tBy ANDREW WEINANT)

Because the number Of turkeys in
the United States has constantly de-
creased in the last few years while the
demand has perhaps increased, a
more profitable side line than turkey
raising for those favorably situated
for the work could hardly be found.
Given plenty or range, turkeys will
readily find grasshoppers and other
insects, green vegetation, the seeds Of
weeds and grasses, waste grains, and
acorns and nuts of various kinds. In
this way the cost Of raising them Is
small and the profits large. Grain
