WEDNESDAY IN HOLY WEEK
Solemn Ceremonies in Sistine Chapel
Concentrating the Death and
Resurrection of Christ.

At the Office Of the Miserere, which
is sung in the Sistine chapel at Rome
on Wednesday of Holy week, cere-
mony takes place in which triangular
candlestick. upon which are Is can
dies, corresponding to the number OF
psalms recited, is placed ut the epistle
side of the altar.
After each psalm, one of the candles
is extinguished by a master of cere-
monies and after the benedictuS the
candle on the top is alone not ex;in-
guished, but is removed and concealed
behind the altar and not brought OF:
until the end of the service While the
canticle is sung the six candles en- the
altar are eXtingushed as well as those
above the rails.
The custom of concealing the last
and most elevated candle and bringing
it forward burning ar the end Of the
service. Is an aliusion TO the death and
resurrection Of Christ In the same
manner the other candles extiDyl!ished

thanks to the efforts of the Depart
ment of Agriculture. For nearly twenty
years the bureau of plant industry has
been endeavoring to procure shoots of
the date palms which bear the fruit
known commercially as the Sadly. or
Wahi, and Sewi varieties. SO difficult
was the source Of the splendid fruit
to trace that, up to 1913, only few
shoots had been procurable. At that
time an immense grove of 100000 of
the palms i'm the oasis of Dakhla, Tunis
was discovered.
Negotiations for the purchase of
specimens having been satisfactorily
concluded, the collection of the shoots
was begun. That it was slow is ac-
counted for by the fact that tree puts
forth only twenty to thirty shoots dur
ing its lifetime. However, the collec-
ton was finally completed and the
work of setting out $500 of the young
trees will be started within the near
future.-POpular Mechanics Magazine.

A liberal supply Of butter has been
received on the leading markets and
prices have shown some decline to-
ward the end Of the week. A good
deal Of understanding butter has been
received on the markets during the
week, indicating that better care Of
cream in the country is necessary.
Continued high temperatures thru
out the producing sections have af-
fected the quality Of eggs marketed,
altho there is a little easier feeling
at the close of the week.
The volume Of live poultry moving
during the week has not been sufficient
for current consumption and some adj
vance has been noted In both consum-
ing and producing territory. An in
crease in the supply of broilers and
fryers has been noted and these
classes of poultry are bringing good
prices.

CONTROL. ERADICATION OF HOG
MITES, LICE

Lice and mango mites are the two
principal kinds Of external parasites
affecting hogs, say experts Of the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture. They are injurious to all classes
of hogs, but the greatest losses &C.
cur in pigs and poorly nourished hogs
kept in insanitary quarters.
The losses are caused by irritation,
unthrifty condition, functional disturb
snces, arrested growth, low vitality
and increased death rate.
Only one species Of lice commonly
affects hogs, and this parasite OBJ
tains it's food by puncturing the skin
