Can catsup be thickened.

Catsup is thickened by boiling
down the pulp to evaporate the
water. If the tomatoes are too
juicy, some Of the juice may be
drained off before the rest Of juice
is seasoned. The juice which has
been drained off can then be used
as straight tomato juice.-Ina B.
Rowe, extension nutritionist.
How does alfalfa silage compare
with alfalfa pasture for pigs?
There is no experimental data on
this subject, but due to the high
fiber content of the alfalfa silage, I
fear that it would not be very palat-
able, and pigs might not eat it
readily after receiving a full feed
Of grain. Alfalfa hay Is so satisfac-
tory for feeding to both growing
pigs and brood sows that it pro-
badly will continue to be used in
stead of silage. We hope to secure
more specific information on this
subject in feeding trials this winter.

! grades inclusive have had the priv
ilege of using the Gymnasium dur
ing their lunch hour, on Monday,
Tuesday, and Thursday.
Several of the boys have re-
marked that they, too, should be
given a day for games. But re
member, boys, you have both of
the school basketball teams.
Since this is the basketball sea
son, and since it is most girls pref
erence, basketball has been the
most popular sport during the
noon hour. However, the program
also includes deck tennis, volley
ball, badminton, and relays of foul
shots.
Organizing the teams is in the
hands of the captains. Usually
there are different captains for
every game. Coach Records ref
erees most of the games.
The scores of all the games have
been close, but the game between
the Juniors and Seniors was es-
pecially exciting. The Juniors
probably were more determined to
win, as they were not as confident
of victory as the Seniors. And
they did win! Nice going, Jun
iods! We hope CD the Seniors
have more luck next time.
The girls have been showing
much interest in this program of
noon activities. The competition
it furnishes stimulates school spir-
it and helps create good sports
manship. Of course, everyone en-
tering a game expects to help win
But this goal must be reached
through no special privileges. One
must give his opponent every con-
sideration, obey the rules, and fin
ally, employ his own skill. If you
win in this way few will resent
your victories. Poor sports and
their opinion do not matter. If
you are defeated, face your defeat
with your chin up and do not
blame another.
These games help to varify the
regular daily program. Previous
ly the girls either spent their ex-
ira time by going to the labrary,
or wandering through the halls.
They now have a more interesting
and more advantageous way of US
ing this time.

NEW YORK.-Discovery of dwell

metal work of an ancient civiliza-
ton was reported by DR.. Wendell
e. Bennett, assistant curator in the
anthropology department of the
American Museum Of Natural His
tory.
Doctor Bennett recently returned
from six-month archaeological ex-
pedition into northern Peru. The
site Of the ruins he uncovered is
near the town of Huaraz in the up
per part Of the Santa river valley at
an altitude of 10000 feet, between
the White and the Black Cordilleras.
From the evidence in the tombs,
such as pottery. copper pins and
discs. and arrow heads of flint and
obsidian, this people of the Recuay
civilization predate one branch Of
the Tiahuanaco civilization and the
Inca civilization. According to
Means method, the Recuay ruins
would date around 500 A. D.
Subterranean Houses.
Doctor Bennett found whole vii
lagos containing as many as so sub
terranean houses, rooted with tre-
mendous slabs Of rock apparently
cut from the mountain sides. The
Recuays are built tombs of rock
slabs, fashioned into boxes. How
the rock was cut and transported
from the quarries to the village site
is unknown.
Many Of the sunken houses ex-
tended two stories below the surface
and contained five or six rooms on
each floor with narrow passageways
leading from one floor to another
and from room to room. Two tenn
pies, each having three stories
above the ground and rising to 30
feet in height, were discovered.
stone puma heads and statues rep
resenting human figures also were
found.
In the ancient village 10 subter-
ranean passageways with single
openings were unearthed. Pottery
found at the ends Of the tunnels
showed they were used as dwelling
places.

Japan S Envoy Asks
Hull 10 Clarity
Treaty Abroeation
Made No Representations
Horinouchi Says. After
Seeing Secretary
By the Associated Press.

Kensuke Horinouchi, the japanese
Ambassador, asked Secretary Hull
today for clarification of Secretary
Hull's notice of termination of the
1911 treaty of commerce and navi-
cation between the United States
and Japan.
Horinouchi. who had been vaca-
tioning at White Sulphur Springs,
w. Va, said he discussed the sit
uation generally with the Secretary
Of State and had not brought with
him any representations on the part
of his government. He said he called
on Secretary Hull solely on his own
initiative.
In view Of the length of their talk,
oficials believed Secretary Hull had
given Horinouchi an extensive state
ment of the American position.
Secretary Hull said later at his
press conference that his conversa-
ton with Horinouchi embraced an
interchange in general way of
views regarding the abrogation of
the commercial treaty. He said de-
tails were not gone into and no new
subject matter introduced and no
decisions taken.
The department, he said, has re-
ceived no information from the en-
bassy at Toxic with regard to dis
patches that guards had been
thrown around the embassy as
result Of the appearance of anti
American posters in Toxic.
The Secretary will leave Washing
ton tomorrow for a short vacation.
A reporter asked II that indicated
things would be quiet for a while.
Secretary Hull's reply was that he
never made predictions and never
took anything for granted.
