FEDERAL AND STATE
GAME LAWS
Shooting Must Be Confined to Time
During Which 1t Is Not Prohibited
BY Ether Set Of Regulations

In making their plans to shoot NIL
gratory waterfowl, hunters will DO
we'll to note the dates of open seasons
under both federal and state laws, &C.
cording to the United States depart
ment Of agriculture. There is confu-
sion in the minds of some sportsmen In
regard to the opening Of the season
when the dates conflict under state
and federal laws. .
The federal law and regulations limit
the seasons before and after which no
one may shoot these birds. If state
law opens the season later or closes
it earlier than the dates prescribed by
the federal regulations, the season In
that state is just so much further
shortened. Special attention is called
to the fact that the federal regulations
do not authorize anyone to hunt or kill
migratory birds contrary to the state
law.
In certain states, as for example,
Illinois, Indiana; Iowa, Kansas, Ken
lucky, Missouri and South Dakota, the
season for shooting migratory wafer
fowl under the state law would open
prior to the date of opening under the
federal regulations were it not for the
fact that the federal regulations super
sede state laws in such case Of con-
flict and prescribe for these states
September 16 as the beginning of the
open season.

Seaweed Discovered by
Japanese as Substitute
for Cotton-AlS0 a Food

Something has been heard lately OF
the value Of seaweed for food. It can
also be used, we now learn, says
writer in the Manchester Guardian, as
a substitute for cotton. An account OF
this new textile was given recently by
K. Hamada, vice president of the Japa-
nese house Of representatives, at q
meeting Of the Japanese Federation OF
Marine Industrial associations.
The raw material may be obtained
from two kinds Of seaweed, called In
Japanese seguno and gomoguma.
These are boiled together in water
with wood ashes, and then in water
mixed with rice bran. After bleach
ing, fibers are extracted which can be
utilized for manufacturing purposes.
The announcement Of this discovery
has awakened no little interest on the
Pacific coast of America, where the
supply of seaweed is almost fnexhaust-
ible. It is along that coast, too, that
some of the Investigations were car
ried out few years ago by Japanese
scientists, whose explanation that their
visit had as it's object the study of
seaweed was received with considera-
BILE Skepticism.

Ornamental Lamp-Posts
Add to AttraCtiveness
of the Up-to-Date City

There is no feature of munlc1pal
equipment that adds more to the at
Effectiveness of q city's appearance
than do ornamental street lamp-posts
Of artistic and appropriate design. JUST
as the effectiveness or interior decora'
tions and furnishings depend in large
measure upon lighting fixtures, so the
beauty of the street can be enhanced
or marred by its lights. In each case
a satisfactory solution Of the lighting
problem consists not only in supplying
sufficient illumination but also in pro-
viding lighting equipment that harmon
ICES with it's surroundings and pos
sesses a beauty Of its, OWE. The old
time lamp-post in vogue before the
days of electricity, writes Thomas j.
Davis, in the House Beautiful, fulfilled
the second Of these conditions, but not
the first; for, although the post Itself
was often a work of art, it's feeble oil
or gas fame seldom was equal to the
task of Illuminating the street. On
the other hand, the modern overhead
arc lamp gives a fairly satisfactory
light, but the unsightly poles, ropes,
wires and other equipment can scarce
~ be called beautiful. Now comes the
ornamental street lamp-post, which
combines the beauty of one of it's pre-
Gecessors and the utility of the other.

Time Required to Cook the
Beans Depends on Length Of
Time Beans Have Been Kept.

In cooking dry beans, the time re-
CURED either in the oven or the cook
ing box will vary with the length Of
time the beans have been kept; the
older the beans the more cooking re-
quired, according to the United States
department Of agriculture. Soak one
quart Of beans over night; in the
morning drain them and cover with
cold water and heat to boiling. Let
boil until the skins will burst when
touched very lightly, adding one-quar-
ter teaspoonful Of soda a few minutes
before taking from the fire. Drain
through cOlander. Return to the
kettle and add one teaspOonful Of salt,
one teaspOonful Of mustard, three ia
blespoonfuls of molasses and one-half
pound of salt pork, washed and
scrared, and cover with boiling water.
Let boil 20 or 80 minutes, then place
in the cooking box. If the beans are
new, six hours In the box will be long
enough. Old beans require longer
cooking and should be left in the box
over night, then reheated in the morn
ing, anu returned 10 the DO1. Iney
will be ready to serve for the midday
meal.
Dried vegetables, such as peas,
beans, Lima beans, lentils or corn may
be soaked in cold water several hours,
and then after the preliminary boiling
Of a few minutes kept from six to
twelve hours in the cooker. They may
be cooked with salt pork, and thus
prepared they are liked by many, or
they may be cooked with vegetable oil,
as olive oil, or they may be cooked
plain and seasoned with salt, pepper,
and butter or cream. The longer, then,
dry vegetables are cooked In the box
the more palatable and the more d.
gestible they will be.

Bungalow. in India Usually
One-Storied House Having a
veranda, Projecting Roof.

For the small home no type of build
ing makes a wider appeal than the
bungalow. The word has been wide
" used to describe the productions of
the 'home builder and the real estate
operator" buildings so APPALLING that
we are apt to forget that the bunga-
low is properly very unusual and IN
tercsting type of structure and one
peculiarly illustrative of the close re-
lation between climate and arehitec-
ture, writes Austin D. Jenkins, in the
House Beautiful.
bungalow is the Hindustani word
for house, Anglicized to indicate the
typical European dwelling In India, u.s.
ually a one-storied house. with veran-
da and projecting roof. The chief pur-
pose of the Indian dwelling is to keep
out the heat and the tropical. rains.
The typical native bungalow and It's
English derivative are in arrangement
much alike. The walls are of heavy
masonry. Both doors and windows are
very large, and open on to verandas
which keep out the direct rays Of the
sun and protect the inner rooms from
the glare Of tropical midday. The
rooms are arranged in suites, and ev-
cry possible cross draft is made the
most of. Sometimes the roof Is OF tile,
but more frequently of maize thatch,
woven on q bamboo frame. and OF
great thickness. The ewes project Tar
beyond the wall line.

Plant Called "Quinoa'' May
Prove Substitute for Wheat.

There has long been cultivated ON
the west coast Of South America a
plant called ''quinoa," which botanists
and cereal experts believe may prove
an excellent substitute for wheat, In
fact preferable to the substitutes now
in use, says Popular Mechanics Maya
zine. This plant, now attracting par
ticular attention because Of the short
age of foodstuffs, has been cultivated
In South America, In more or less
primitive fashion, since pre-1nca days.
The department Of agriculture has Inn
ported several lots Of quinoa seed and
seed Of related species and II mailing
experiments with It In the hope Of
finding q suitable sou and climate In
this country for IT'D cultivation.

We Are Living in Changed
And Fast Changing World.

To us all there has come Of late the
unacceptable fact that we are living In
a changed and fast changing world,
says the Christian Herald. Under the
stress and strain of world upheaval
our physical domestic, economic and
social life Is undergoing daily the
process of change. We are adjusting
ourselves to a new environment; are
living under new legal restrictions
and abiding by new social customs
and obligations. Through it all there
are going on within us equally great
changes In our attitudes to life and its
problems and tasks. We have been
forced out Of our provinciality and
provincinlism into q world outlook; an
international spirit is rising; our in
terests have taken on a worldwide as
pect and our concerns embrace the po-
litical and economic welfare Of all hui

Bread Now Made From Wood
Claimed to Be HeaIthful, Well
TASTING. Diqestible Food

The search for new materials to
feed the starving stomach of Sweden
has, according to DR.. John w. Beck
man, a member of the California Sec
ton of the American Chemical sOci-
ETY., again demonstrated that neces-
sity is the mother of invention.
Sweden, located as it is in the pre-
carious position between the two fight
ing groups of nations, has found 1t
hard to obtain its necessities from
either Of the fighting nations. In
times Of peace, Sweden has always de-
pended upon imported wheat and 9TH
er foodstufts from the East, as we'll
as from the West. With those imports
In many cases completely stopped,
Sweden has sought inside of its own
domain for new materials. Being q
country which is we'll wooded, 1t Is
natural that Swedish chemists should
turn to the forests in search of sub
stitute. This search has proven sue,
cessful and a Swedish chemist has
devised q method by which wood can
be produced in such a condition that
It can be used In bread making. In
fact, bread baked out of two-thirds
wheat or other flour and one-third
spruce -four is a healthful, well-tastins
and digestib1e food.
Extensive experiments have been
carried out to learn the digestibility
of this spruce flour, or cellulose flour
and all Of them have proven that ful
" one-third Of the cellulose flour Is
absorbed by the human being. The
manufacture of this product is nov
under way in Sweden in sufficient
quantities to supply the needs Of
Stockholm. It Is being sold at thu
price Of about 40 cents per pound, but
| the volume Of this flour is about thre<
| times that Of wheat.

TIPS FOR The
POULTRY GROWER

Do not kill the laying hen.
Separate the good layers from the
Door ones and send the poor layers
to, market.
Progress in all breeding is based on
selection.
Apply selection to your. poultry.
Keep the best and breed from them
and watch the improvements.
Keep the hustlers-those that are
on the range early and 60 to rOost
with full crops.
The good layer is active. She is a
hustler for worms and bugs. She has
d bright red comb and bright eye.
The plumage Of the good layer is
usually much more broken up than
the plumage of the poor layer.
The high-egg-yield hens are usually
late to moult. They may also have
pale or faded shanks and beaks.
The pelvic bones, or lay.bones, of
the laying hen are far enough apart
90 that three fingers can be placed be-
tween them. These two bones Gun be
felt, one or each side Of the vent,
somewhere above the vent.
The good layer has thin. pliable pei
vic bones.
There should not be less than three
or four fingers distance from the pei
vic bones to the point of breast bone.
There should also be good distance
from the ribs on one side around to
the ribs on the other side. In other
words, the abdomen should be large
Ind roomy, indicating that the hen has
p large capacity for the assimilation
of food and for the production Of eggs.
The skin of the abdomen should be
loose enough to suggest an udder that
has been MIXED out.
The inferior laying hen of the meat
type has thick, beefy pelvic bones,
with hard Jumps at the ends. Such
hens are not heavy layers. Sell them.
They usually weigh heavy.
H. Sell hens that have arched, hard
lay-bones, especially If the distance
between the lay-bones and breast bone
Is not great.
Sell any hen that seems to lack VI
tally.
Market any hen that has decided
" crooked breast bone, scaley legs.
long toe nails, or is ''broken down"
behind.
Hens Of the light breeds may be
profitably kept for three seasons !;
those Of the heavy breeds, for two
Seasons.
Do not sell early Matched pullets as
broilers. Keep them and they will be
your winter layers. They will also
prove vastly superior as breeding birds
% those later Matched pullets that are
not mature enough to lay until spring.

Significance Of Adage
"CrossinQ the Rubicon. -

Rubicon was the name Of small
river which formed part Of the boun-
Diary line Of ancient Italy, and on one
occasion Julius Caesar precipitated a
war by leading his troops across the
river. From this the phrase passing
or crossing the Rubicon became a fig
ure Of speech to designate any decis-
i've or important step that was beyond

clared In q letter written about the be-

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
CROSSING THE BAR

Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning Of the bar,
When put out to sea.
But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the
boundless deep
Turns home again.

And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness OF farewell,
When embark.
For tho from out our bourne Of Time and

When have crost the bar.
