Finds Parasite That Destroys Black
Widows Eggs; May Control the Creature

Spread of the black widow spider
may soon be controlled by the labo-
ratory propagation of rare and
tiny parasitic fly that preys on the
egg sac of the spider, writes George
Elwood jerks in Nature Magazine.
The fly, known to science as Cat
rax araneae, was discovered in Los
Angeles about 40 years ago, but APP
parently was forgotten until jerks
rediscovered it in the SPIDERS egg
sacs. Nature has checks on the
undue increase of many creatures
in the form of parasites, and it is
this minute fly that controls the
black widow. Probably assisted by
settlement, however, the black wild
ow has been increasing in numbers
despite the activities of Gaurax.
The spider spins her sac about
the eggs she deposits and remains
on guard throughout the incubation
period, but it sometimes happens
the parasite evades her watchful
eyes and succeeds in laying it's own
eggs on the surface of the sac.
These eggs soon hatch, and the
tiny maggots, provided with instinc-
tive knowledge at birth, at once
bore through the tough walls of the

nounce a new series of articles
which we believe to be the

We wanted to offer a food

the women of this community

in its relation to health, in it's
effect on growing children. In
formation of this sort has usu-

AROUND
THE HOUSE

Cleaning Kitchen Utensils.-To
remove the smudges from utensils
used over an open flame rub with
crumpled newspapers, then apply
a few drops of kerosene to the
paper and rub the kettle until it's
clean. Wipe with more dry pa
pers. Do not let any of the kero-
sene get inside the kettle.
Prepare for Spring.-Now is a
good time to collect cigar boxes
or make flats for planting seeds
indoors.
For the Garden.-Begin collect
ing stakes for the garden. There
will never be enough of them
when you want them.
Improving Cocoa.-The flavor
of hot cocoa or chocolate may be
improved by adding one-fourth
teaspoon of vanilla to each cup of
milk.
When Handling Hot Glass
Handle hot glass cooking utensils
with dry cloth or pad; damp or
wet cloths are apt to cause them
to crack.

IF SPRING is not in the air yet
L it soon will be. 1t is the season
when every room in the house
seems to need a lift. If your
couch or daybed looks as though
it has had hard Winter now is
the time to give it a thought.
The couch of the type shown
here may be made to fit into al
most any decorating scheme if it
has smart and appropriate COW
err. The one shown here is ideal
for room with modern furniture
or for one that follows no partlcu-
lar period. 1t would also give an
interesting accent in Colonial or
provincial room. The CUSHIONS
match the couch cover. A rough
ly woven navy blue cotton mate
rial is used and the seamlines are
outlined with heavy cream colored
cable cord. If you would like
gayer color scheme, use red cord
with navy blue. Cream or yellow
cord with brown material also
makes an attractive cover.
A curved candlewick tufting
needle such as is shown here at
the lower right is good to use for
sewing the cord in place. Thread
about size 8 or 10 to match the
cord should be used. The needle
shown is really a medium size YER
sion of an upholsterer's needle
which is another piece of sewing
equipment that you will find use
full if you like to renovate old fur

Three Indians, naked except for
breech-clouts, painting and shining,
entered the camp and stood before
the fire.
Gel Captain, which is he?" they
asked.
81 am he. What is your mes
sage?"
"Senor, Ell Gobernador, Don Pc
dro FACES, is camped days jour
ney from here. His smoke is yonder
in the valley. He sent us to find
you, and bid you hasten"
Captain Canete heaved a great
sigh of relief.
"Praise God!" he murmured de-
voutly. Then he detailed three 9TH
er Indians from his train to make all
haste to the Governors camp.
"Tell him we will be with him by
.nightfan tomorrow" he said. He
looked around at the drawn face Of
the Governors lady. "And tell him
all in my expedition are well,
happy, and enjoying the trip!" he
added.

night there will arrive here the cav
alcade of Captain Canete Rise,
beggars, vagabonds!"
Curiosity overcame laziness, and
soon the camp was buzzing with an
ticipatory preparations. The arrival
of Canete meant news from home;
letters, messages from Spain and
Mexico. 1t meant a fiesta, for there
were women in the Captains train,
surely the Governors lady would
bring maids!
Don Pedro moved with dynamic
energy. His eyes glowed, his step
was light, his energy boundless and
his orders legion.
Indians were dispatched into the
canons for deer, quail, rabbit, ante
lope. Others gathered wood and
piled mighty pyre on the beach.
At last the Governor, having as
signed to each his task, turned to
one he would entrust only to him
self.
A large round tent which had re-
manned rolled and packed on the
journey, had been pitched some dis
lance away from the camp. He en-
tered it, and almost fell over a tiny
Indian boy, naked as rabbit,
brown as a berry, with wild bright
eyes.
"Ah, Escabellito! Lazy little one,
begone and eat thy tortillas!
Wouldst sleep all day."
The child scampered toward the
cooking fire, and the Governor went
to work with the happy expression of
a man performing labor of love.
He began opening bundles that had
been a mystery on the trip as they
had never been opened, and had
taxed the pack-animals to the ears.
There were bright blankets of In
dian weave, supple serapes in gay
colors, skins of mountain lion, Wild
cat and bear, robes of otter and
rabbit. These he spread on the
ground until it was covered, ar
ranging and rearranging until their
disposal suited his fancy. And as
he worked he sang little soldiers
song beneath his breath.
Eulalia had seen a painting of a
lady of the French court dressed in
a green velvet riding habit, with
voluminous draped skirt, tight fit
ting basque trimmed in rich cream
lace, on her head a saucy velvet
hat with nodding, sweeping plume.

jerks has experimental in an at
tempt to propagate this parasite,
and has succeeded in raising several
thousand under artificial conditions.
The main problem at present is the
preparation of synthetic food for
the larval flies that will substitute
for the egg sacs of the spider. When
this problem is solved, he believes
it will be possible to propagate the
parasites in insectaries by the mill
lion for widespread distribution and
thus check the increase of the black
widow.

Passenger Pigeons Numerous

Passenger pigeons roamed all
America when white men first came
here, says the Washington Post. The
Indians killed the birds, but only
full-grown ones. So fat were the
pigeons the Indians melted them
down, used them as lard and butter.
The birds flew in huge flocks of as
many as billion. Their roosts in
Kentucky and Indiana were often
40 miles wide and miles long.
They sometimes made 100 nests in
a tree.
