@. What does hoist by his W
petard mean?-C. E.
A. The petard was a half-cone OF
thick iron filled with powder. and
ball and firmly fastened to a plank
which was attached to the gate of a

1t was to ignite the slow match tc
cause the explosion did not scar

HI SINGING DEMON

Mosquitoes bite us only as a last resort-when they are
unable to find any other kind Of prey.
You may doubt this, but it comes from the man VINO Is
supposed to know more about mosquitoes than anyone else in
the world. He is DR.. w. Rudolfs, scientist on the payroll OF
New Jersey.
Rudolfs' investigations show that a mosquito will pass up
a human any day for a horse, COW, dog, rabblt-any KIND OF
animal life except chickens and ducks. just why they steer
it may open the door to immunization of the man-aninal
against the singing, singing demons.
You have swatted a mosquito and found 1t full OF blood.
About 9 out of 10 times says, Rudolfs, the blood is from an
animal.
The mosquito is the universal pest. 1t is + found in all parts
of the world. Stefansson, the explorer, says there are more
of them in northern Greenland than in the equatorial Jungies.
Here's a riddle of nature: The mosquito never feeds when
the atmosphere's humidity is under 40. Its appetite goes up
with the barometer.
The mosquito is a biting fly. 1t matches from eggs laid in
stagnant water. Its life usually is only a few months. Some
kinds, however, live all summer. Others hibernate through
the winter, in worm stage, and emerge in spring from ice IN
which they have been frozen solid. With vitality like that, no
wonder they are so hard to exterminate.
The song Of the mosquito-saddest music that ever reach
ed the human ear-is a sort Of lung and throat rasp caused
by breathing. Flies are different, their hum is caused by fast
whirring of their wings-like an airplane propeller.
No public problem is more pressing and emphatic than
the MOSQUITO tribe when they are present. The germs they
carry kill thousands of people, usually by malaria, typhoid
and other fevers.
You believe in swatting the mosquito. But it seems like
a hopeless job when you go on vacation and find them swarm
ing in the woods and along the shores Of fishing pools, by
millions.
The mosquito, however, is not an explorer. He might
fly a few miles in a season, but generally he haunts the old
homestead where he first tried out his wings.
Man never will be able to extermnate the mosquito.
places in the country. All that's needed is to prevent stag
nant water. A rusty old tin can with a little stale water IN
it will breed more mosquitoes than any one person can swat IN
a lifetime. That's your cue.

@. What is the record for para
chute jumping?-S. c. r.
A. Captain A. w. Stevens, of Nc
Cook Field, in jumping "a 200 feet
with a parachute. established a new
record.
@. What are the five leading in
dustries in New York City ?-F. T.
A. In 1919 the clothing industry
ranked first, tobacco, printing. mil
linery and lace goods, and manufac-
tured furs following in the order
named.
@. Is it necessary to have okra
in a sour in order to call it gumbo?
III. Med.
A. Since gumbo is derived from a
word Of African origin. kingombo
meaning ol,ras it follows that gum
DO is a soup which is thickened with
okra.
@. Why are there holes in cactus
wood ?-D. M. B.
A. Scientists do not agree upon
this subject. An explanation gen
orally accepted is that the cactus
does not receive enough nourish-
ment to support solid wood. The
holes represent an economy OF ma
ture.
@. Who said Now twilight let's
her curtain down, and pins it with a
star pm. A. T.
A. This is the best known couplet
written by Mcdonald Clarke an
American who was known as the
Mad Poet because Of his eccentricity
and conceit.
@. What is the principle which
determines the amount of rent land
yields?-H. M.
A. Authorities regard rent as due
to a preferential value. If we as
sumo that there Is always free land,
that is, land which can be had free
of charge, then the utmost which
will be paid for the use of a partic-
ular piece of land is the equivalent
of the superiority of this land over
such free land as may be had.
@. What is Gresham's lawn.
G. r.
A. Sir Thomas Gresham. director
of the British mint, laid down the
dictum bad money drives good
money out of circulation" which
has since been known as Gresham's
law. AS an illustration of it's appli-

OUR NEW

Americas foreign trade has entered upon a new period
of development. The last fiscal year has seen material gains
both in exports and in imports, over the 1913 volume. More
significant still is the fact that the markets where we bought
and sold were not the old ones.
Last year we sold Japan nine times as much as in the
wear before the war, British India three times, China almost
five times, Egypt seven times, Greece eight times. Trade
with Mexico, Sweden and Spain doubled, while that with
Germany gained slightly and Russia bought less than half as
much.
Meanwhile we are buying less from the United King
dom. Germany, Russia and Brazil. France and Belgium have
increased their sales to us and those Of Japan have trebled.
South America, too, is marketing more goods here than be-
fore the war despite the 10 per cent. shrinkage from the
1920-2i fiscal year.
The figures indicate that, in these next decades, our
trade with lands long considered backward may well come
to exceed in value that with western Europe. The Pacific
ocean seems about to become a center of world commerce
such as the Atlantic is and the Mediterranean has heen.
And it is obvious that much of our gains have been
made at Germany's expense
