the December Boys Life, Il would
have seen that the thing to do, when
there isn't the substance that you
want, is to go ahead and invent it.
Other people do that so why not you!
Make it out of other substances not
a bit like what you want. That's
what you call chemistry.

thing as chemistry because had

a boys notion of chemistry is good

the solid level headed business man

meant to say. That notion is: that
chemistry is where it smells like the

it all clouds up different colors; 1T is

HOW TICK RELEASES
FOLLOW DIPPING VAT

The amount of territory released
this year in nine Southern states from
the Federal quarantine against the
cattle fever tick was 1927 square
miles, the greatest on record since
the state and federal governments be-
gan to fight the cattle parasite in
1906.
Another record, too, was broken
this year. The number of cattle dip
pings in all tick infested territory in
the first ten months of 1918 was 49,
263, S67-eXceeding the number in
any previous year and by more than
ten million the number for the entire
year of 1917.
Officials of the Bureau of Animal
Industry, U. S. Department of Agri-
culture, emphasize the direct relation
between these figures. Where there
are many cattle dippings release of
territory from quarantine is much
more probable than where there are
8 few. Where there are no clippings
there is little or no hope. Releases
follow the dipping vat

At the beginning of our active Red

the country was after our country en-
tered the conflict for Fright over
Might" number of people
rested upon their dignity and await
ed a special personal invitation to be-
come members of the Red Cross.
Thank heaven that time has passed

lege it is to be allowed to be a part
of that splendidly organized society
of the American Red Gross.
From the smallest Red Cross Socie-

many thousand members. It's magni-
fcent work during the war was proof
sufficient that the hearts of the Amer
lean people were in the right place.

this time. We give only one dollar
a year for the blessed privilege of
being a member of the most wonder
full organization in the world for the
alienation of human suffering. An
organization that walked hand in
hand with our army and navy and the
armies of our allies, and is to take a
major part in the great reclamation
work of the world.

BOYS TEACH FATHERS BETTER
HOG RAISING

Some of the boys in the two De-
kalb County, Ind, pig clubs are show
ing their afthers how rapid and eco
nomical gains can be made in raising
pigs. Under the direction of the To-
cal county agent these boys have been
able to almost double the results OBJ
tanned by their fathers within the
same length of time and feeding pigs
of the same litter. The boys used
self-feeders and the fathers did not,
and the pigs which were allowed to
select their own feed made gains of
2 pounds day The club members
are proving, beyond question, the
merits of the self-feeder, and hog
raisers in the county of many years
experience are beginning to copy the
boys methods. AS result of the club
work, the county agent reports, many
fathers and sons are now planning to
go into partnership and raise pure
bred hogs.

IF SOLDIERS ARE LATE

Excuses do not go in the army
and l think l can show you why
writes the Cave Scout in the Deem
Der issue of Boys Life. "Let us sup
pose, for instance, that you and your
chum Bill are called into headquar-
tiers and given the following order:
1T is now 1915, at 11:15 you will de-
liver this message to Col Givemfts
at Trench 3:49.' Suppose you deliver
your message at 11:17. BY that time
your own outfit has attacked. The
support your commander expected
from Col Givemits is two minutes
late. Your comrades are wiped out
by a machine gun Col. Givemfits was
to have put out of business. You
are then called before the command
ing officer and you say, We'll you see,
Bill wanted to go one way and /
But you will not have the chance tC
go that far with your explanation.
"The commanding officer knows
you were ordered to report at IL: 15.
He knows you did not do it. He
knows two hundred men died because
you did not do it.
"War is dangerous game and
men must be trained to accept full
responsibility for their acts. That is
the only way men can be held up to
full account for their mistakes-and
can get full credit for their sue,
ceSses."
