tons in order to function.
When Doctor Funk Discovered The
functions Of yitarnines, he was expert
menting with that golden cereal which
has sustained countless millions Of the
earth's population for thousands Of
years, rice; and from the layer( which
rightly divided is seven layers placed
on the outside Of the rice kernal, di-
rectly under the fibre. containing near
ly all the rice fats, he extracted cry
stabilized substance, such that when he
fed small portion of it to different
animals worked wonders. Pigeons that
did not have Wit lily sufficient to en-
able them to stand up. shortly after
they were fed small portion Of this
crystallized substance revived and
were ready to fly.
Funk did not say that this SUBJ
stance. was the vitamine, nay, but he
did discover that this mysterious
power, which he named yitamine, was
within this crystalized substance; and,
now, he that hath an ear, let him
listen.
Up to this very day wise humanity
is, in the rice milling process, remov-
ing, yes removing, all that life giving
and life sustaining rice fat, in order
that you over the counter may be ham

ed rice, which, robbed Of its fat and
its balance in vitamines and often
coated with calcium and talcum, has
shortened the life for the Orientals to
such an extent that it cannot be fully
comprehended or calculated today.
However, when you understand the
functions of vitamines it should not be
lizard to see that you must eat products
which are made from whole grains,
whole fruits, whole vegetables and the

ways to attract birds but the most
practical and effective is a food plat
form. | will draw an easily-erected
one on the blackboard. The migrat-
ing and passing birds will see the bird
boxes, and, if kept attended to, they
will bring others. and they will colon
ize the boxes and fight the insects for
you.
OF all the birds useful to destroy
insects, the marten, the blue marten,
is probably among the best. But the
marten box must be made large
enough to house from twenty to hun
bred families. for the marten is a CO.
operator. too. Then, there are the king
bird, the common swallow. and the lit
tie wren, all useful birds. We have
been troubled by cabbage worms, bred
by small white-winged butterfly, easy
to know by its having four black spots
on its wings. These the martens will
destroy, the wren will dispose of many
smaller insects, and the king bird of
the large ones. The king bird not on
ly eats many of the larger insects, but
kills more than he eats.
There is very, very much more to
be said on this question. but the rest
may be said to good advantage after
we shall have made start toward the
carrying out of some of the above sug-
gestions. We may be assured that in
sects breed too fast to be greatly af-
fected by methods that go only to eff
fects. We may be sure that, if we go
at the matter seriously and enlist the
aid of the birds and bats, the saving of
time. labor. and money will be very
great. and the beneficial results obtain
ed will be enormously greater than if
we don't go after the causes. This,
! of course, means that we may assist
the birds and bats by destroying the
trees and plants that act as harboring
and breeding places.
Fall blowing and deep fall blowing
will eradicate many insect pests. Ma
ny injurious insects spend the winter
in the soil. or in the trash on the sur
face; and if they are plowed under
eight to ten inches deep they are
smothered and destroyed. Grasshop-
pers' eggs laid on stubble and trash, il
plowed under more than six inches
eight inches is better-may hatch, but
they will never reach the surface. The
same applies to the cotton boil weevi
and to the cane and corn borer. Ev.

close-textured, fine-grained soils, such
as ours here, are benefited by the aer.
alton and consequent sweetening o.
the soil. Wire worms, corn-ear worms
root maggots, and cut worms are al
favored by a sour soil. Deep fall
blowing puts them down where they
are smothered, helps at the same time
to sweeten the soil, and puts a dampel

Belfast. = The members of the
football team of the Irish Repub-

more, have been ordered released by
the viceroy, according to an official
announcement
The announcement adds that Mich
ael Collins, head Of the provisional
government, has given assurances Of
the release of additional kidnapped
loyalists
With the exception of a few minor
incidents, the weekend in Belfast
passed quietly. a man named Hunter,
returning from church, was shot and
wounded by an armed party in the
Springfield road.
At Clones the situation is quiet. The
patrols are moving about unarmed.
Members of the special constabulary
who were kidnapped are still being de-
tanned at Newtown-Butler and Ross
lea
A striking feature Of the meeting
held in Cork under the auspices Of
Eamonn de Valera was the presence
-
lcan army from the city of Cork and
from various parts of the country who
were assembled by companies under
their officers.
Donal 0Callaghan, lord mayor of
Cork, presided at the principal plat
form from which the speeches were
delivered
De Valera proposed the same reso-
lutions as We're adopted at his meet
ing in Dublin, repeated virtually the
same arguments as were then put for
ward, declaring Ireland was in greater
danger than it had been at any time
in $50 years.
Charles Burgess and other followers of
de Valera supported the resolutions.
The train on which de Valera trav-
eled Saturday evening to Cork was
met at the railway station at Thurles
by 5000 persons carrying Sim Fem
flags. Addressing the crowd he said
he was glad to see the republic was
not dead in Tipperary and that the
people did not want the British mon
arch as king of Ireland
Arriving in Cork, he was greeted by
Lord Mayor O'Callaghan and other
prominent Republicans. He apologized
for not speaking in Gaelic, declaring
he desired every Irish citizen fully to
understand the seriousness of the stu
alton and to fully appreciate what they
were doing.
He said they were being asked to
say that when four years ago they
pronounced for Republic they were
fools and did not realize what they
were doing. If an election were fore
ed on them, he added, he was sure the
citizens of Cork would do their part
in proving to the world they still stood
for an Irish Republic.
