TOAD RENDERS GOOD SERVICE
Why II Pays the Gardener and the
Housewife to Cultivate Friend
ship With Creatures.

Formerly the toad was held TO be Il
venomous reptile, but in our own day
its habits have been more carefully
observed and its great value to the
gardener. has been established. Inas-
much ms the toad destroys many spe-
cies OF harmful insects we should cul-
tivate its friendship.
Now, every tidy housewife detests the

min. Two or three domcsticated toads.
it is said, will keep the premises clear
of these. The toad is possessed of n
timid and retiring disposition, loving
dark corners and shady places, but I'M
der kind treatment becomes quite
tame.
Many instances might be cited OF
pet tOads remaining several years in Il
family and doing most valuable serv-
ice. with no other compensation than
that of immunity from persecution.
All that is necessary TO secure the CO.
operation of the toad, indoors or out,
is to provide it with cool and safe re-
treats by day and convenient access

GOOD HIGHWAYS IN JAMAICA
Island in British West Indies is Awak.
ening to a Realization Of
Improved Roads.

The island of Jamaica. in the Brit
ish West Indies. rich in natural re-
sources and active In trade, is awak-
ening to realization of the import
ance Of good roads. The advent OF
the automobile has had much to do
in the development of an agitation
which now promises valuable results.
The system of modern highways
which II is proposed TO build will
mean the speedy development of parts
of the island now more or less neg
lected because of their practical in
accessibility. Completion of radial
system Of good roads would undoubt-
edly be followed by a general adop-
ton OF the motortruck for conveying
the products 10 the sea. The in.
creased speed and efficiency thus ac-
CURED would tend to promote larger
production, and thereby increase the
wealth of this already industrious is
land.

How Horn Combs Are Made.

The tortoiSeShcl comb is practically
extinct and combs today are made OF
cows horns Aberdeen. Scotland is
the home of the comb-makins indus
try. and every year absorbs some mil
lions Of horns gathered from all over
the world for this particular purpose.
The annual output Of combs from this
one city is about 25OO0,0oO.
The horns having been sorted as 10
quality and graded, are flattened and
shaped into oblong plates. The plates
are cut into pieces for combs, and
every bit Of the cutting is done by
machinery. The twinning machines.
as they are called, cut two combs at
once. The teeth are then pointed and
the combs 90 to the securing and pol
ishing ROOM where the polishing is
done by revolving wheels.
The natural color of horn Is white,
but by means of tremendous pressure
on the plates the natural white can
be changed TO a greenish shade, and
il is from this that the very beautiful
imitation tortoiscshell is made.
In such n factory there is, naturally,
an immense amount of waste" This
is made into fiouthpieces for pipes,
umbrella handles and buttons, while
all that is left over is worked up into
fertilizer

Dairy Campaign Set
For AUegan County

East Lansing, Oct. 27-An inten-
sive milk and Alfalfa" campaign,
starting on October 20 and running
for ten days, is to be held in Allegan
County under the direction of the
Michigan Agricultural Coll ege.
Greater profits in dairying, through
more efficient production, will be the
aim of the campaign work.
Valuable information TO serve as n
guide in planning similar work jim
other parts of the state will be gained
from the campaign, according to col
lege men in charge of the project.
Practical results, including the or
ganization of COW testing and bull
associations, and the actual placing
of orders for alfalfa seed, lime, and
commercial fertilizers will be sought
Details Of the ''model campaign"
show that every part of Allegan
county will be reached. Ten divisions,
one for each day of the campaign,
have been made. Ten or twelve
neighborhood meetings will be held in
each, with a roundup meeting at
some central point in tho evening. In
this way every farmerin the county
will be able to get the educational
work without travelling any great dis
lance.
Two teams of specialists from the
college will have charge Of the active
work Prof. O. +. Reed, head Of the
NJ. A. c. dairy departments, and Prof,
j. f. Cox, head of the crops depart
ment, will head the teams. j. A.
Waldron and A. c., Baltzer, dairy
specialists, and II. c. Rather and c.
K. Mcgee, crops men, will round out
the teams. j. w. Nicolson, head Of
the seed department of the state
Farm Bureau, will also take part,
while detailed arrangements are be-
ing taken care of by County Agricul-
tural Agent Alfred Bentall.

MATERIAL FOR ROAD MAKING
Careful Study Of Amount and charac-

Professor House Of the Colorado Ag-

been head of the civil engineer depart

says:
"A great deal of agitation Is being
carried on at the present time. con-
corning the construction of concrete
roads for Colorado. That some of our
roads should be paved in this way.
there is no question. but | think we
should carefully guard against over
doing the matter. In order to be justi-

amount at least equal 10 the interest.

1T is exactly the same as i'm Ordl-

pie of the community.
1T may be rcol economy TO spend

The Rainbow CLOVIS With
Beautiful COlOrs

The effect which we know as the
rainbow - word derived from its
shape and the fact that 1t is seen after
a rain--is due 10 the rays Of the sun
passing through drops OF water or bits
of moisture in the air and being
separated by these drops into the
primary colors or red. orange, yellow.
green. blue and violet or indigo. A
similar effect. but without the bow
shape, may be obtained by placing a
triangular piece of glass or a prism
before the eyes and looking at 1t In
the sunlight. The glass breaks the
light up-forces the various COM
ponent colors apart-and proves that
the yellow appearance which we rec
ognize ms sunlight is, in reality. made
of a number of other tones blended to-
gether.
Occasionally. when the sun is quite
strong, two rainbows will appear, one
within the other. This is caused by
the fact that the rays Of the sun are
reflected by the upper part of the rain
drops as we'll as by the lower-but the
colors of the outer rainbow are placed
i'm precisely the reverse position to the
primary, or lower, one. The transitory
rainbows, seen when n watering cart
is sprinkling the street or when n
garden hose throws its spray high in
TO the air, are, of course, due TO the
