A STATE BUILDING NEEDED.

At the last session Of the Generai
Assembly Senator RidgeI submitted
bill for the erection of State admin
istrative building. Unfortunately the
measure was sidetracked in the rush
of other matters. We understand
that the Lexington senator has
through the summer been trying to
crystalize legislative sentiment in IA
vor of such project. We hope his
efforts are proving successful, because
such a building is greatly needed by
the State government, not only for
the better administration of govern
mental functions but for the conven-
ience of the public who have business
to transact with the various State Off
cials.
AS the matter now stands the va
rious departments Of the State govern
ment are widely scattered over the
city of Columbia and it requires con-
siderable time and patience on the
part of citizens of the State whose
stay in the capital is limited to trans
act business with more than one de-
partment. Besides this some Of the
departments now housed in the State
House are sorely cramped for room
and valuable records are necessarily
kept in such a way as pove almost less
than worthless.
For the financial side the State is
now paying sufficient in rent to carry
all charges on a building entirely ade-
auate to properly house the varied ac-
tivities of the government under one
-oof, thus adding to the convenience
of the public and the efficiency of ad-
ministration without placing an ad-
ditional burden upon the treasury.
We hope that DR.. Ridgell will renew
his effort at he session next winter
and push it to successful conclusion.

COCKROACHES

Cockroaches hide by day about
sinks, kitchen pantries, storerooms
and moist places. At night they are
active. The German cockroach (croton
bug) is light brown, with two dark
brown stripes on his back, is fully
winged and about five-eighths of an
inch long. The oriental cockroach
(black beetle) is shining blackish,
short-winged and over an inch long.
Another species, called the American
cockroach, is still longer, is light
brown and fully winged.
The University of Nebraska has
found the dusting of sodium floride
powder about their retreats and hid
ing places the most successful treat
ment. 1t acts both as a contact and
stomach poison, the reaches taking
it into their mouth when cleaning
their antenna and legs.
