NOT DIFFICULT TASK
TO DESTROY REACHES
Use Of Sodium FIuorid Is Simple
and Effective Plan.
Obnoxious Insects Can Be Compie'e'y
Exterminated With Little Trouble
and Expense by DustIng with
This Substance.

One Of the most effective and simple
means Of Kidding premises Of reaches
is busting with commercial SODIUM
fiuorid, either pure or diluted one-haif
with some inert substance such as
powdered gypsum or 1our. Tnis
remedy is one recommended by the
United States Department Of Agricui-
ture.
Numerous practical tests conducted
IN lunchro0ms, bakeries. milk-Dottle
exchanges, ETC., have shown that with
the use Of this substance reaches can
be completely exterminated with very
little trouble and cost and with none
Of the possible dangers attending the
use Of hydrocyanic-acid gas, another
efficient means of control. With the
use Of some dust gun or blower the
sodium fiuorid can be thoroughly dust
ed over the shelves, tables, floors and
the runways and hiding places OF the
reaches.

Of few hours by their death. The
dead or paralyzed reaches can be
swept up and burned, and complete ex-
termination is effected within "a
hours. 1t is not definitely known

HOW THE PAGE OF A
DAILY NEWSPAPER IS
PREPARED FOR PRESS
"A WHY Articlsl

Jim and his orony Al, were on
visit 10 the local newspaper plant
They were in the press room stand
ing by the side Of the big fat fore
man watching the huge roaring
presses grind out copies of the daily
paper.
But" says Jim 20 the foreman,
81 don't see how all the little pieces
of type stay on those rollers with
out flying off-they go around so
fast"
Well, son." says the fat fore
, man, there isn't single piece OF
type in that whole press-oniy solid
stereotyped plates with the faces of
the small pieces Of type nodded on
them.
There is nothing that makes IT
possible to securely fasten all the
thousands of single pieces of type
in a newspaper page to those round
rollers. So we use curved metal
plates cast from fat type forms.
In making a newspaper page all
the single pieces of type, linotype
slugs ard metal engravings of pic
lures are assembled into a fat form.
This bulky affair is taken into
the stereotype room where a paste
board technically called papier
mache) mold is made of it To do
this a wet sheet of pasteboard is
spread over the form. Then form
and all is showed under hot steam
press and the pasteboard is baked
under heavy pressure. When il is
taken from under the steam press
and off the type form the paste
board carries an impression of
every piece OF type and engraving
in the form. 1t is called a mat,
or matrix-
The mat is then clamped into
a casting box If curved metal
form of it is wanted the mat is
curved when clamped in. Other
wise, II is left fiat. Molten metal
is poured over It and left for few
minutes to dry. The pasteboard
mat pealed of, you find that on the
face of the hardened metal is an
exact reproduction of the original
type form all ready, except for a
little trimming of the edges, to be
clamped on to the rollers of the
printing press"
