FAITHFUL DOG TAUGHT

King snakes are splendid mou-

PREFER TO BITE ANIMALS
Human Blood Is Not First Prefer
cncc Of the Mosquito.

According TO Or. w. Rudolfs, bio
chemist in entomology and mosquito
expert for the New Jersey agricul-
.tural experiment stations, mosqul-
toes don't really care eor human
blood and would rather feast on anil
mails. Doctor Rudolfs said:
''Tt Is the blood hunger OF the
mosquito that induces them TO fol-
low us and bite. Roubaud found the
number of mosquitoes TO that part
of the house occupied by human be-
ings insignificant compared with the
enormous numbers caught in the
part occupied by animals. The aver
age number OF females that had
drawn blood from man was 14.2 per
cent. while frequently 90 per cent of
them had drawn blood from animals
"Legendre observed that cattle at
tracted more mosquitoes than horses
and that while rabbit cages were
fun of gorged mosquitoes, similarly
constructed cages housing ducks and
chickens were free from mosquitoes
as was a dwelling house a short dis
tance away"
SO, according TO the doctor, so long
as there's are short-haired animals
around, the chances OF your escape
from having the Irritating probosci-
des thrust through your skin are fav-
orable,
Doctor Rudolfs also says mosqul-
toes are attracted by dark colors,
especially by black and pay no at
tention to the form or shap OF any
thing. He also declares the pests do
not feed when the humidity is less
than 40 per cent and enjoy their
meals the most when 1t is so per cent
or more.

GREATEST OF FOODS
Acre for Acre Nothing Equals Use
fulncss of Banana as Greatest
Food Plant In the World.

Most fruits are valuable TO man
because of the medicinal properties
of their juices and for their delicate
flavors. But from point OF view
Of food, there Is nothing, or next to
nothing. IN them.
Strawberries, sor instance. or
peaches or pears, are OF little use
except to quench the thirst. The
one great exception is the banana.
The great traveller, Humboldt, once
said that an acre of bananas VIII
give as much food as a. acres Of po-
tatoes. Tho is decidedly an cxag
geratlon; yet, acre for acre. crop
Of bananas does give more human
food than any other plant or vege-
table known 10 man.
The average yield OF n plantation
OF bananas on good, moist land Is
2SS punches TO the acre each year.
You can put the weight OF a bunch
at 52 pounds, which makes the crop
1875 pounds to the acre. This would
be enough to feed a man for about
three and one-third years.
An acre OF potatoes viii yield, JON
an average, So bushels, sufficienT to
feed a person for IS months. or/less
than half the time that an acre or
bananas would feed him.
But then the potato crop requires
lot of work. Each year the ground
must be prepared, plowed and fer
tilized, the seed sown. kept free OF
weeds, and finally the crop dug and
housed. In the case OF the bananas,
all this trouble Is saved, for new
shoots keep growing up from the
old stools" and there Is nothing
10 do but keep the weeds down with
a scythe and cut the fruit when ripe.
No wonder. then, that bananas
are, weight for weight, the cheapest
1000 FOR man, ana that lie runs
easily in countries where the banana
will grow. And that. mind you, Is a
belt nearly three thousand miles
wide all a3und the thickest girth
OF cur plaYrct.

any doubt, according to careful
canvass made, Thursday was the big
gest first day Of dollar days in the
cfty's history. Some stores even re-
ported the biggest day in their his
tory.
At no time was there any real jam
of people on the street. On the other
hand, the shoppers appeared earlier
than usual and they were prese Mt all
day. Extra clerks had been pro-
vided in practically every store
where wearing apparel Of any I-ind
was sold. Before the day was out,
this was found to be a very wise
move. for the shoppers came con-
tinually and all who came bought
goods.
AS is generally the case, the wom-
en- far out-numbered. the men. But
the women were in the mems stores
