Charles Darwin demonstrated that
they are of incalculable value to ag-

Silk Worms Wsave Dyes

A French scientist has succeeded
in making silkworms weave dress
dyes into their own output. He is
reported to have injected dyes into

ordinary shades, but the tones and
hues that are made from combining
various tints, are produced by the
little workers receiving treatment by
this process. silk is usually dyed
after it has been wound and twisted
into floss, but the new method is ex-

BOULEVARD
State Roads Commission Chief
Will Ask Authority of
Maryland Assembly

BALTIMORE. Oct. 21.-Authority
to widen the sixty-foot boulevard be-
tween Washington and Baltimore TO
100 feet will be, requested at the
next meeting of the Maryland gem
eral assembly by John r. Mackall,
chairman of the State roads com
mission, it was announced today.
Mr.. Mackal made this statement
in answer to suggestions that the
State should build an additional
boulevard between the National
Capital and Baltimore.
According to Mr., Mackall, If the
present boulevard is widened to 100
feet it will provide for the in
creased traffic which at present is
congesting this road. Widening the
roads would not cost as much as
building new ones, he said, and
would not practically answer the
same purpose.
Mr.. Mackall also declared that the
Annapolis road and the Belair road,
which have widths varying from
thirty to sixty+six feet would also
have to be widened to 100 feet to
accommodate traffic demands, and
that the Improvement should be
made as soon pc ible.
