 The flies flew away immediatly after release from their paint-box prisons. most of them speeding with the wind or at right angle to it's course. In order to ascertain the dis tance of dissemination, a large mum Der of conical traps IS inches in dia- meter were placed at varying dis tances in different directions from the points of liberation, These traps were baited with strong smelling by products which would attract the flies, The flies collected in these recovery traps were killed daily and counted. and the number of marked flies determined. In case the coloring matter could not be seen with the necked eye, microscopes were used which invariable would favor the Identification of all the experimental flies in each lot. II Is notable that over 64 per cent Of the total number of marked flies recovered were cap tured again within 24 hours after liberation. Most of these flies prev icus to capture travelled at right an- -gles to wind that was travelling al velocity of from 13 to 24 miles a hour. These experimental results snow that for some unexplained rea- son the flies of all species failed to be recovered in the traps south of the point of liberation in numbers in proportion to those recaptured in the traps placed in the other directions. These test also showed that the flies travel with a fair degree of speed. as they cover the first 1000 feet from their place of release in a few minutes. The common house fly will cover from five to nine miles about two days immediately after release. The tendency of the flies was to tra- vel in a westerly direction, 77 per cent of them being recaptured in traps placed in that direction.
 The stimuli which was largely responsible for the wide dispersion of the house flies were the desire for food and the desire for places, where eggs could be deposited. The fact that in their flights the house Tiles passed many towns, farms and other favorable places for feding and breeding indicates that they possess marked migratory habits.

STUDYING THE FLIGHT OF FLIES

fTOm 0CleHtlllC <AfiStitdh.
 The marking and release or 254,ooV
 flies by expert government entomoi-
 ogists in order that these scientists
 might study in detail peculiarities Tn
 fly behavior which previously had
 never been investigated thoroughly
 is one of most reni>~kable undertak-
 ings and accomplishments of recent
 years so far as "bugologists" are
 concerned. Federal representatives of the national bureau of entomology
 have officiated as modern fly cops and insect detectives in these novel experiments, whose objects have been to determine how various species or economic insects were distributed and how knowledge concerning the intimate daily doings of the winged pests could be used advantageousiy in developing efficacious control ana eradication measures. The varieties of flies which affect man and ani- mals are largely distributed by nat-
 ural dispersion through ordinary flight.
 These unique fly tests were started | In order that practical data might DC 1 had which could be interpreted in | terms of the spread of fly-b borne dis eases as well as to provide accurate l data regarding the proper location 1 of dumps, incinerators, hog seedins stations and other favorable fly breeding grounds, so that the men, I ace to surrounding towns. cities ana rural districts would be avoided. | House flies may travel anywhere frcm one mile to 50, or even 100
 miles, in their journeyings about. Op- 1 servations made at the Rebecca Llgnt | Shoal off the coast of Florida show 1 that flies ocea sionaHy migrate to | that point from Cuba, distance or l s5 miles, while fly visitors from Key West. only 46 miles away, are rel | atively common.
 The federal fly investigations have been carried on chiefly in northern Texas. The flies were captured by 1 batting large conical fly traps with l packing house products of strong | odor. The traps were exposed in | places which teemed with flies for l anywhere from to 24 hours and then Il screened cylinders were placed a. | around the fly traps. the cover of 1 traps were removed. and then they were agitated until the flies. were N driven into the cylinders.

DECORATIVE EFFECTS IN CON-
 CRETE

When one speaks of concrete. 1t con1ures up visions of retaining walls, severely plain buildings, and massive bridges, but T. A. Brouwer, or Northampton, N. r., has sshown that this material is admirably adapted for artistic work, says an illustrated article in Popular Me chanics Magazine. On his estate, called Pine Wold Park" are many examples of his art. in the form of statues, fountains, and the like. It seems almost impossible that such delicate figures and designs could have been made of concrete, yet such IS the case and the artist contends that 1t IS a very easy matter to make them. n saQa9H1
 The method is not limited to sta tuary but can be applied to decora- tive effects for buildings, cornices, freplaces and also for many other
 purposes. The work can be done very rapidly and the decorative ef- fleets are limited only by the skill of the sculptor. The artist has been able to- produce various color ef- fects in his work by the proper
 blending of the material used. Some of his groups of statuary are given a finish similar in appearance to
 antique bronze, which is very effec- tive against the forest setting in
 which they appear. Contrasting ef-
 fects are produced by placing white
 relief figures or designs against a background of gray or darker color.

 After the grower of citrus fruits has successfully combated adverse weather conditions, blights. and pests, and finally has the ripened fruit ready for market, he still has to face the problem of delivering that fruit to market before 1t spells Under average conditions. this means that the time elapsed from the tree to the consumer should be about 15 days. even when the fruit is preceded and shipped in refrige- rator cars.

FOR DISTRIBUTING THE INK

2 For the production of high-class printing, such as half-tone and color process work. and of any ordinary printing with minimum spoilage, a machine has been designed that. when attached to the press, keeps the ink smooth, soft, and equally dis tributed, according to an article, with illustration in the Popular Mechanics Magazine. Placed in the fountain it has an adjustable blade that can be raised or lowered to turn any amount of ink desired. When in operation 1t scrapes the ink loose from the bot tom of the fountain, and also blows it against the fountain roller. insuring even distribution on, the duet roller.

, Newcomers into the game of golf find it in one respect good deal like dipping Into Wall street-they get oceans of advice on all sides and no end of tips on how to accomplish the different tricks of the sport.
 The best place to get golf advice, and correct instruction. Is from a golf professional. Thousands of players will invest considerable money In clubs and golf clothing. then under take to learn all by themselves ono of the most difficult things in the world to master. The self-taug ght player, when he really has taught himself, usually Is a fine golfer, but necessary powers of concentration that will carry them to the heights In golf if they undertake to go 1t alone, so to speak. They might do 1t were 1t not for the advice on every hand. Every golfer has his own par ticular advice for the new player. These tips vary 80 much, of course, because each player, adjusting the standard practices to his own build and personal comfort. does things In each case, in a slightly different way-and obviously he thinks his way, successful for him, is exactly the way for everyone to do 1t. See the professional at the start of your golfing. He will comprehend your individual case, add will transmit the fundamentals of golf to you in the way that will accomplish the most good for you.
 Public links golfers. however. often are not able to obtain the services of a professional and the same thing applies to many private club mem bers who find themselves unable to make appointments with a profess sional during hours that can be spared from business I am glad to be of any help can to such players and can offer them the A B c of golf on which they cannot possibly go wrong.
 Chick Gives Rules
 If I were a beginning golfer, there are just few things I would do, and I would let all details come un- der the word practice. While prac- ticing one can discover for himself many little golden rules that may not be precisely applicable to the other mans game, but will suit yours exactly These are the few instruc- tions I would give to the golfer just starting:
 1. Learn to grip the club in the fingers. never in the palm.
 ?. Use square stance for full shots; open for half and shorter.
 g. Learn to let your club head form it's right angle with it's imaginary line. SO that neither heel nor toe is off the ground.
 {. Tn swinging, make the descent and ascent the same on both drawing back and follow through
 5. Cultivate the forward press.
 If you begin with the rules you are bound to make progress but add one more, the sixth, and that is prac- tice.
 Golf books of instruction are full Of detail, all righ.uss Itself. but con fusing- and ging for the be- ginner. Personally. I think there Is too much detail in all instruction. be- cause correct detail must differ with every individual. All the great play CTS have the same big general ideas but in detail each has a somewhat different. swing. Therefore, 1t is well to remember that just as your phy- sique differs from the other fellows so must your swing differ from his.
