Members of the senate general leg
islation committee refused to consti-
tute themselves board of musical ex-
perts and killed two bills each advo-
eating state song for Minnesota.
Attorney General Clifford L. Hilton's
opinion on the tonnage tax bills seems
to have pleased everybody. Messrs.
WEIGH, Bendixen, Warner, Trowbridge
and Wilkinson, who introduced tom
mage tax laws, all expressed them
selves as satisfied, and opponents Of
any tonnage tax claim the opinion will
make tonnage tax impossible this
session.
Sharp words passed before the
house educational committee on a
hearing over the bill providing part
time education for children and adults
Mrs. F. A. Kingsley of Minneapolis
said it made fetish" of vocational
education. DR.. c. A. Prosser vigorous
ly defended the measure and said it
would give working boys and girls a
chance for training.
Favorable action on the Brooks
Coleman bill giving state control of
street railway rates is expected soon
by the senate committee on general
legislation. Hearings on the bill ended
and subcommittee is drafting amend
ments to meet constructive criticism

ing work which regents and university
authorities believe necessary.

TO REGULATE BOXING
Bill VIII be Introduced to Place Con-
troll in Hands of State Military.

Boxing in Minnesota will be taken
out of the realms of high finance, ii
the state legislature passes a bill soon
to be introduced by the house and SEN
ate committees of military affairs. The
bill, as now drawn by the National
Guard association, which will press
1T for passage in legislatures all over
the country, does these things:
Places boxing under the sole con.
troll of the Minnesota National Guard
and Minnesota Naval Militia, through
state athletic commission to be made
up of officers of those two organiza-
tons; bouts to be staged chiefly by
units of the same organizations.
Permits boxing in all parts of the
state, with no limit on the number of
bouts. the bout duration limit raised
from 10 rounds to 20 rounds and deci.
sions not only permitted, but made
compulsory.
Eliminates millionaire purses" for
fighters in Minnesota by fixing maxi
mum admission prices at So.

Designed to prevent conflict and con-
fusion in federal and state grain grad
ing in anticipation of restoration of
Minnesota grades, bill by Represen-
tative Nels Moen was recommended
for passage by the house committee on
grain and warehouses.
II. G. Flannery, assistant attorney
general serving the state railroad and
warehouse commission, prepared the
bill. Chairman c. M. Bendixen pointed
out that warehousemen must protect
themselves against the possibility Of
being compelled to sell under federal
grades grain bought on state grades.
Representatives A. G. WEIGH and G.. R.
Wright answered that Minnesota far
mers will be glad, nevertheless, tn get
back to Minnesota grain grades.
Quality will determine grain values
regardless Of grades, Commissioners o.
P. B. Jacobson of the railroad and
warehouse department said, because
grain dealing is largely on sample. and
favorable action followed.

tee recommended the dog" bill to

fund and use this money to pay dam
ages to owners of livestock or fowl
which are killed or injured by dogs.
The county under the bill then may
hold the owner of dog for the dam
ages paid out of this fund. The COM
mittee raised the license fee to SIS on
male and SIS on female dogs. Country
members said they vigorously would
oppose this bill on the floor of the
house on the ground that the average
farmer requires from one to three
dogs

The committee on public health
killed Representative F. E. Miners

preparation of food in Easements. Sew

HEALTH AND BEAuTy,

Does your baby play on the floor, Mrs. Youngmother? Are you careful to See that he comes in contact with no uncieani substances? Do you know that a deadly disease turks in dust and dried sputum cfried into the house on peo- ple's feet?
 Between the regular shampoos, the hair should be well shaken and the scalp ventilated, in the sunshine if pos sible, to invigorate the roots and make it more fluffy. Shake it loose and then wipe down the hair shafts with soft, clean towel {not one that has tenden- cy to shed Int). Then brush thorough ly, finishing with a piece of soft velvet or plush
 Many have the habit of back combing the hair to make it look fluffy This cannot be done without some injury to the hair but it can be so carefully done that the injury will be slight. A great deal depends upon the manner in which the comb is inserted. Put it in on a slant, not straight across, and you will find that it will be much easier to dis entangle and there will be no necessity for breaking the ends.
 Many women, particularly those who have household duties, are troubled with the nails constantly breaking Much benefit will be derived from warm olive oil finger tip bath. For this heat sufficient oil so that the liquid may be put in a cup at depth just sufficient tc cover the finger tips.

STOLEN AuroNiB1LEs

Thousands of automobiles are stolen in the United States every day, which leads to the natural inquiry of why the police do not catch these automobile thieves and send them where their ae- tivities would be suspended for a time at least
 Now comes the head of the auto de- tective squad in New York with an ex- planation that puts the blame largely on the automobile owners instead of the police for failure to identify cars that may be recovered by the police. He claims that many auto owners would rather collect the insurance on a stolen car than identify their car when 1t has been found. Having obtained insurance before the recent drop in ear prices, they would rather have the money with which to buy new car than re- ceive back their old worn machine The first thing done to conceal the fact that 8 car has been stolen Is to change its license plate and it's engine number. Without these marks, the detective says, the owners refuse to identify their ears, although they may not be In doubt at all. Another trouble is that owners to whom ears are returned refuse to prose cute because they do not wish to lose the time 1t takes to go to court
 As to failure to identify, the New York detective names no specific in- stances, but he has devised a scheme for registering the essential parts of cars, which cannot be changed like a license plate on an engine number. Armed with this schedule he says his men will be able to force upon reluct- ant owners the acceptance of stolen cars, even when the insurance would be worth more than the car. When he finds a man disputing the ownership of ear against his Identification marks and gives that mans name to the pap CTS, his theo:y will have something to stand upon. At present it is ingenious but not convincing.

NOVELTY CURTAINS

Side draperies on g window tend to shut ott both light and air, so they re- ally are not desirable in summer. A room, especially a colonial room, done in soft eolers calls for a note of bright color near the window. The newest way to obtain this without the use of overdraperies is to make your curtain of a plain net and then embroider them in gayly colored wool. Bright, old-fash- toned flowers lend themselves to this purpose. If you have never tried em- broidering with coarse. wool you will be surprised to see how quickly the flowers grow under your fingers. A good way to get & design is to adapt one from a piece of chintz you happen to fancy. You can get both the outline and the coloring from chintz or cretoEne. Another way to get a note of color in your curtains is to select net with a large design and outline the figures in colored wool If the room is blue and white get a white net with block design in it and outline the blocks in blue wool. Or ii the room is done in soft woodsy tones of brown and tan you can use ecru ne and orange wool. Cream net and greer wool make another charming sumnel combination.

COSTLY INSECT PESTS

The average annual loss to agricul- ture through the activities of insect pests according to recent survey of reports Issued by the federal department of agriculture, is about $1,1o1, 900, ,o0o. Including the damage done to forests and forest products, to domestic animals and to products in storage. the annual loss Is about S1,5e0, 900, 900. The de- partment estimates inst through It's bureaus of plant industry and entomol- ogy 1t has reduced the possible loss from Insect pests by half, hence were 1t not for the fact that the government directs continuous and unrelenting war fare upon the pests, the country might suffer the loss of so much of its crop output as seriously to impair its ability to feed itself.
 If these pests were native and if there was little likelihood of new nnaraudlng insects finding their way to this coun- try, the departments fight against them would be comparatively simple, but there is always the danger of a new destroyer getting a start in areas re- gently freed of pests. The boil weeyil, which in 1917, cost the cotton states about s250, ,000, ,0o0, crossed the Rio Grande from Mexico only thirty years ago, yet today it is found ih every corner of every cotton state, and although the government maintains special station for experiments in the eradication of the pest, little headwsy toward relief has been made. These bugs have probably done more damage in thirty years than the south ever suffered at the hands of an invading army.
 The alfalfa weevil. the San Jose scale, the codling moth or apple worm the peach borer, the sweet potato weev- il, the Hessian fly, the chinch bug, and the European corn borer, which was found only four years ago in .Massa- chusetts, all collect an annual tribute from American farmers which demands that more attention be paid to the work of eradication. Crop burning Is the only effective means of stopping the corn borer, which entomologists be- | lieve to be the most deadly plant enemy sver brought to this country, and unless it is destroyed it will infest the north as the boil weevil has infested the 1 south.
