Victor's Flag Is Always
Placed at Top of Mast.

Originally the practice of hosting
flags on public buildings only part Of
the way up the flagpoles was military
one. Ever since flags were used in war
1t has been the custom to have the
flag of the superior or conquering ma
tion above that of the inferior or van
qulshed. When an army found itself
hopelessly beaten it hauled its flag
down far enough for the victors' flag
to be placed above it on the same pole.
This was token, not only of submits
siOn hut Of respect. In like manner
when famous soldier died flags were
lowered not only to indicate respect to
his memory. but to show that he had
succumbed to the greatest oonqueror
OF aii--death, for which flag space was
left at the top of the staff.

There are several standard prepa-

lows: Take three parts Of gasoline
and one part Of crude carbolic acid,

cannot be obtained as directed, three
parts gasoline and one part cresol.
Mix these together and add gradually,
with stirring, enough plaster of Paris
to take up all moisture-about four
quarts Of plaster Of Paris to one quart
of the liquid. Thoroughly mix the LID
uid and plaster in order to get uniform
distribution and strength. The result

aud that next spring 2O,OO0.OOO bushels

Scrupulous care in preceding re-
frigerator car for shipping dressed
poultry. always n matter of impor-
tance. is doubly so now. in the opinion
of foodresearch experts. The greater
necessity for care comes. in the first
place, of the fact that there is ma
tion-wide ice shortage. The second
important element is that. following
the stress of wartime transportation.
the refrigerator equipment of the coun-
try is in rundown condition. The
car should be carefully examined. the
experts say, to see that ii admits not
even a pin point of light. Then it
should be tested and. II it fall short of
standard, there should be no hesita
tion about rejecting it and calling on
the railroad agent for a car that will
meet the requirements. Extreme care,
the experts believe, is essential just
now for the preservation of poultry in
transit. and the chief of the depart
ment's food research laboratory has
just issued the following definite in
IOTlDatlOn as 10 now satisfactory re-
suits are TO be attained:
Select Car Day Before Loading.
when the refrigerator car is set for
icing, enter it and with doors and
matches tightly closed look carefully
for any crack or point of daylight.
The car should be absolutely black
with not a pin point of light anywhere.
II there are distinct cracks around the
doors or matches. the car will not main
tain sufficiently low temperature and
should not be iced for the hauling of
dressed poultry or any other commod-
ity requiring ice and salt refrigeration.
Be sure also that the drain pipes are
open and in good working order.
1.-THE selected car should be set for
icing at least "a hours before it is to
he loaded. Its bunkers should then
be filed three-quarters full with finely
broken ice; that is, no piece should be
larger than mans fist. When the
bunkers are three-Quarters full, tamp
the ice down well so that all cracks
and crannies are filled. Then add one
quarter of the calculated amount of
salt on the u per cent basis. For in
stance, II the bunker holds 5000
pounds of ice, when three-quarters full
it will contain $3.50 pounds. On top
of this amount of ice scatter $50
