good taste. II you are one OF the

your hair, remember that It is not
advisable to wash the hair with any
cleanser made for all purposes. but
always use some good shampoo. You
can enjoy the very best by getting
some canthrox from your druggist.

Meat Canning
GRACE e. HADLEY,
Home Demonstration AGENT.

The canning OF meat has not been
so extensively practiced as the can
ming of fruits and vegetables and many
house keepers know little about the
methods employed in the process.
Meats may be canned at home and
kept in excellent condition and where
there is surplus to be cared for, can
ming may be the best method to en-
ploy. 1t is possible to utilize meat
scraps, soup bones, and in fact, every
part of the animal useful for food
purposes.
With a supply of canned meats. the
house keeper can prepare and serve
nalatable meal on short notice with
saving of both fuel and time It also
makes possible a more varied diet,
lessening the dependence upon cured,
sailed and smoked meat, the constant
and exclusive use OF which means a
monotonous and less wholesome diet.
bulletins concerning the canning OF
chicken, beef and pork are in the Of

ABOUT THAT BIRD LAW
Statute Is Explained for Kansas by
Frank Campbell.

A final interpretation of the migra-
tory bird law, which has troubled
hunters for SO long, is announced by
Frank Campbell, clerk of the federal
court. Contrary to the opinion held
by many persons, the supreme court
never passed on the constitutionality
of the old law, Campbell says, the
writ of error having been dismis sed
by the government in a case appealed
from a district court in Arkansas. The
present law is as follows:
Under the migratory bird treaty act ap-
proved July ), 1913. the open season. as

1919 A LOCUST YEAR
Swarm of Pests Scheduled To Ar
rive In May and June.

Washington, D. C., March s.-Great
swarms of the 17-year locust will in
fest the United States in late May and
early June this year, which is expected
by scientists to be one of the worst
locust years" on record. Experts of
the department of agriculture, how
ever, see nothing alarming in the pros
pect.
Once regarded superstitiously as a
harbinger of disaster, the periodical
cicada, popularity known as the IL
year locust because it comes at long
intervals, is seen now to be no more
than an ordinary non-poisonous Insect
pest, which can do little damage if
proper precautions are taken. The
chief injury inflicted by the insect
consists almost wholly in chiseling
grooves in the branches of trees for
depositing eggs. Young fruit trees
sometimes are killed, but the damage
generally seems greater than it actual
ly is, according to the entomolog;sts,
and popular alarm is out of proportion
to the real danger.
Suggested precautionary measures
are:
Defer putting out young fruit trees
until next year; postpone budding
operations; do no pruning this spring.
When the insects begin coming out,
hand pick them from young trees or
spray them with pyrethrum powder.
kerosene emulsions, or a solution OF
carbolic acid or acetic acid.
Later. when the insects are ready to
begin laying, spray young fruit trees
with whitewash.
