Thankful He Was Not a Woman

ISLANDERS IN WEIRD DANCE
Travellers Graphic Description Of
earbarie Ceremony Witnessed In
the South Seas.

On one of the Gilbert Islands l saw
"bateta" (dance) of unforgettable
splendor. In the afternoon natives
were busy making wreaths and neck
laces Of white flowers of the male
papaya tree. In deep pink oval, mother
of-pearl and lavender the sun set be-
side the palms. On the lagoon beach
was kindled a great fire. Presently
the mellow moon and huge stars, ris-
ing through the fantastic cocOnut and
more fantastic pandanus. cast the
black shadows of the trees athwart
the white sands. Over the rustic of
the palm fronds, the soft fall Of feet
in the dust of the dim pathways, and
the murmur of fiower-crowned men
and women, on their way to the dance,
came the voice of the surf on the
outer reef.
A chant and clapping arose from
30 to 40 persons. men and women

were nude to the waist. Necklaces Of
white coconut leaf, long and many
pointed, hung down upon the breasts;
greeneries were twisted In the pierced
lObes of their ears, and from under
white coconut and chaplets of flowers
cleaned their white eyeballs and
winter teeth.
In the forefront of the ballet sat a
woman-a Micronesian Aphrodite-
covered from her waist down with a
fine dancing mat. She was the prin-
cipal, and only she and two men did
not beat hand against hand and
against breast. One of these-a
great, bearded. Arablike fellow-was
the leader of the chorus. He gave
calls, accompanied by a sweep of the
raised arm. At the second or third
call the second man, a brOad-bodied
Bacchus, opened the song in tenor,
and the others Joined, chanting and
beating, the women's voices high and
nasal, the mems round and full.
The chants were altogether monOt-
unous repetitions of few words. Co.
conut-oiled bodies cleaned under the
fire. Hands. feet, arms and trunks Of
the three principals kept exquisite

Close to Terrible Death.

Buried alive, a young workman in
Chateaudun, France had remarkable
escape after being 16 hours in well.
He was fitting pump in a well 60
feet deep when the sides gave way
and he was buried 80 feet from the
surface. A fellow workman. seeing
that alone he could do nothing, at
once informed the mayor of the hamlet,
who In turn telephoned the sub-pre-
feet of Chateaudun. The latter at
once dispatched to the scene the only
troops at hand, tank corps detach-
ment, and then telephoned to Yer
sailles for a detachment of military
engineers to be sent by motor car.
Sixteen hours later Thion was rescued
alive, having been protected by the
props, which were fixed transversely
in the well to prevent the sides fall
ing in while 1t was in course Of con-
struction. He was, however, very bad
ly bruised. and in such an exhausted
state that he was at once taken to
the nearest hospital.

MOST DESIRABLE

prepared by the United States Depart

Desirable quality in the flesh of
poultry intended for table use depends
on the flavor of the flesh; on the tex
ture; on the amount Of flesh In pro-
portion to the weight Of the bird and
and the larger masses of fat over the
carcass. Other things being equal, the
flesh Of the females usually Is milder
than that of the males, say home
economic specialists of the United
States Department Of Agriculture.
Caponizing makes the flavor Of cocks
more delicate, tends to produce finer
and less tough muscle fibers, and In
creases the size of the masses of meat,
especially in the breast.
Effects Of Age on Flavor.
Age tends to increase flavor, at first
advantageously, but later usually, dis
advantageously. Most very young
birds have flavor too mild to be sat
isfactory for stewing or fricassee, but
make splendid eating as broilers or
fryers. The delicacy Of flavor usual

the bird grows older, the proportion
Of flesh to bone usually increases, at
least up to the period of full matur-
ity. Often the large masses of flesh
found on such birds can. be utilized
more satisfactorily than the smaller
ones found on young and scrawny
chickens.
Exercise affects the flavor and tex
ture of poultry flesh, as in any kind
of meat. 1t toughens the fibers and
the connective tissues, and lessons the
amount of fat. 1t may also affect the
distribution Of flesh on the carcass in
creasing the naturally strong, tough
muscles rather than the. less-used, ten
der ones. In some birds, notably
chickens, the exercise can be con-
trolled. Almost any poultry, however,
can safely be penned for few days
before killing.
The difference between the flesh of
a plump chicken and of lean one
of similar kind and age is due princi-
pally to the fat present. The skill of

TO PREVENT POTATO LOSSES
Serious Damage Results From Careless
Handling at Harvest Time
Avoid Breaking Skin.

Growers and shippers are RESPONSE
BILE for much of the loss that results
from shipping diseased potatoes. since
a large part of such losses can be con-
trolled, If not entirely prevented, in
the field, according to specialists of
the bureau of markets of the United
States Department Of Agriculture.
Serious damage results from careless
handling when the potatoes are har-
vested. Too many persons, 1t is said.
handle potatoes as though they were
so many cobblestones, rather than a
perishable product. Even the breaking
of the protective skin frequently
proves serious. Such injury not only
damages the appearance and neces-
states deep pairing of the tuber. but
affords ready entrance to infection.
Loss of this sort lies in every growers

About the first question that most
people ask concerning milk goats is.
How much milk will they producer"
This is, of course, very important
consideration. as the value of a doe
is estimated largely by her milk pro-
duction. Even If a doe is purebred,
she is of little value from the utility
standpoint unless she Is capable of
giving good quantity of milk. Many
persons In purchasing purebred or even
grade goats have been disappointed to
find that the milk could be measured
in pints and not quarts or gallons as
expected.
A doe that produces three pints a
day is considered only fair mixer.

SECURE BEST HARVEST HELP
Rovers are Usually Efficient but They
Are Liable to Leave Before Crops
Are All In.

Getting help for the harvest rush is
a problem which is best faced weeks
m advance. Grain, and orchard har-
vest seasons bring to many sections
large numbers of travelling help who
start with q crop in the South and
work north with the season to the
Canadian border. These workers are
usually efficient through long ex-
perience, but they are likely to feel
the urge of the road and leave before
the farmer gets his crop all harvested.
obliging him to pay a much higher rate
to secure the remainder Of the crop
before 1t spoils. Wherever efficient
local help can be obtained, it Is to
be preferred to the rovers.
