The United States brig Niagara,

the United States, the old Niagara,
having been raised in connection
with the centennial celebration IN
1913 of Commodore Perry's victory,
is far too much of historic relic to

KANSAS BIRDS.

According to a paper on behalf
of bird protection published by the
State Horticultural society of Kan
sas, the bird population of that
state is 256,o0o,oo0, which every
year eat enough insects to FILL 40
trains of so cars each-24,000 cars
of q minimum weight Of $4,000
pounds to the car. These insect
trains would be long enough to reach
from Oklahoma to Nebraska. Re
duced to pounds, it is figured that
the birds Of Kansas every year eat
576,00O,OO0 pounds Of insects. It
is hard to conceive the dollars and
cents value of the insect-eating birds
to the Kansas farmer.

ANCIENT DENTISTRY.

A paper read by Lieut. Comman-
der George Il. Reed, D. c., U. S. n,
before the National First Aid Asso-
citation OF America, gives some in
teresting facts about ancient den
tistry. It reads in part as follows,
as quoted in First Aid:
'sDental surgery is found in the
mouths of Egyptian mummies and
dug up in the skulls of prehistoric
man. Among the examples of an
Gent dental skill to be found in our
museums are many gold or silver
dentiscalpia, or toothpicks.
practically the first written rec
ord Of the treatment Of teeth was
found in Egypt in 1878, in a papy-
rus written probably about 1850 B.
C. The papyrus speaks Of infam
nation of the gums and toothache
among other references to dental
ailments"

ANAC0NDA WIRELESS IS NTERFERED WITH
 BY COPPER SHELTER

BUTTE, Mont, July 8 (by Asso- ciated Press) s).-Mysterious knocks" with which the big wireless plant on Anaconda hill, which was completed several weeks ago by the Montana Power Company, has, ever since it opened for service, been troubled, now are ascribed to the Cottrell plant at the Anaconda Copper Mining Com pany's Washoe smelter at Anaconda.
 The Cottrell plant is huge electri- cal affair with more than 1000 kilo- watts of power. Its fires extend throughout the height of the big stack which exceeds 500 feet, and it's pur- pose is to discharge electrical energy into the gases arising within the stack. These discharges are be- heved responsible for the knocks" which bothered the wireless. Gener- al Superintendent Buck of the Mon- tana Power Company said that the dis turbances, it is thought, will be over- come by changing the length of the wireless wave.
