If you are looking for place
for a picnic, with safe drinking
water, or for quick lunch, hot
dogs and other refreshments, or, for
an overnight stay, don't stop until
you see the placard bearing the seal
of the State of Maryland, showing
that the place has been duly inspect
ed and meets the necessary sanitary
requirements of the State Depart
ment of Health, is the advice Of
DR.. R. H. Riley, Director of the De-
partment, to prospective motorists,
cyclists and picnickers.
DR.. Riley explained that no camp
or picnic ground in Maryland that is
used for six days or longer and that
accommodates ten or more persons
may be operated without permit
from the State Department Of
Health. Applications are usually
made in the early spring so that the
required inspections may be made
and any needed improvements may
be gotten under way before the sea-
son opens.
To be duly certified, each camp
must comply with the regulations
prescribed by the State Board of
Health with regard to the water
supply, toilet facilities, disposal Of
sewage, garbage and other waste;
protection of foods sold on the
premises from pollution ard from
flies; sources Of supply and methods
of handling milk, cream and ice
cream; and, the general cleanliness
of buildings and grounds.

Grinding, Mixing Colors
Described by Old Writer

The English Journal of Decorative
Art some time ago printed amusing
excerpts from a book-title unknown
owned by one E. Stockmane in
1882. The book dealt in the main
with painting, both pictorial and
structural. The grinding and mix
ing Of colors were described and
sundial decoration given especial at
tention. Paints for sundial figures
were mixed for permanence with a
"Fat oyle" for which the following
instructions were given:
''Take Linseed Oyl what you
please, put to it a sufficient quantity
of Red-Lead (the more, the better)
SO as it hinders not the boyling.
This Red-Lead adds drying quality
to the Oyl: let them boyl gently
over a charcole fire without flame,
till it is boyled enough, which you
may know by taking little Of it
out and cooling of it; if it roaps like
thin Treacle, or a Syrup, it is
enough: then with a lighted paper
set it on fire that it may take away
much of its greasiness, let it burn q
minute or two, more or less as your
Oyl is in quantity: then extinguish
it, by covering it close over with a
cloth, and letting it cool and settle,
decant the clear Oyl, and keep it in
a bladder for use."

Normal Human Brain Has
Covering of Nerve Cells

The normal human brain has a
six-layered covering Of nerve cells.
This is the cerebral cortex, the or
gan of voluntary movement, think
ing and conscious life, relates an
authority in the Washington Star.
At first there is only a single lay
er, the so-called ventricular apen-
dyma. This partly lines the inner
surface of a hollow ball. Rather
late in the course Of embryonic life
the cells of this layer, impelled by
some impulse which remains OBJ
scure, begin to multiply and migrate
upward through the wall of this hol-
low ball. With all the precision Of
soldiers on parade they form them
selves into the different layers, one
after another.
The nerve cell migration is far
from complete when child is born.
The bottom three strata are nearly
complete, but the upper three can
barely be discerned. The same con-
dition is found in the mature brains
of such mammals as the cat and
the dog. Quite rapidly after birth,
however, the full human brain rap
idly takes shape. When the upward
migrating cells reach the place
where they are to stay they send out
white nerve fibers which extend
downward to make connections with
lower brain and spinal cord GEN.
tiers.
Among the last brain cells to start
their migration are the Betz cells,
the largest in the brain, which ordi-
narily are found chiefly in the area
just in front Of the center of the
cerebral cortex. It is in this area
that all voluntary movements are
initiated. The Betz cells presuma-
bly, are the organs of all movements
which are not automatic refexes.
Stuck-in-the-mud brain cells, I'M
able to make the grade on the up
hill road of evolution, constitute an
important factor in hereditary fee
ble-mindedness.

The Earliest Sales Tar

A form Of sales tax was levied by
the federal government as early as
1794. In that year, at the instance
OF Alexander Hamilton, tax was
placed on property sold at auction.
A similar tax had been imposed by
Lord North in England to help meet
the expenses Of carrying on the war
against the American colonies. In
this country the levy produced little
revenue and was repealed in 1900.
1t was revived for several years as
an emergency measure during the
War of 1912, but collections depend
ed entirely on the conscience Of the
auctioneers and evasions were no
torious. 1zzw--

INTERESTING INFORMATION
CONCERNING THE
AUTOMOBILE

Uncle Sam," says the Keystone
Automobile Club, "has just come
forward with some information of
interest and value to motorists. A
nationwide investigation conducted
by the United United States Bureau
of Public Roads discloses that only
4.32 per cent of the country's 25,-
100000 passenger vehicles are
owned by families with an income
exceeding $4,000 annually. With that
fact established, the second dis
closure assumes unusual importance
1t is: The slower car is operated,
the more economical the operation.
Aside from the admitted hazard,
high speed Is costly in gasoline con-
sumption.
Composite figures obtained by
Federal government by averaging
the tests ON several makes of pas
senger cars show that with steady
driving on concrete pavementS at q
speed of 40 miles per hour, gasoline
consumption is 0.0575 gallon per
Lull0. AT W MAAcS pCA AOuts ~ 40
O.OS2 gallon per mile. With gasoline
at Is cents per gallon, the cost per
mile would increase from 1903 to
LAT cents per mile, representing a
cost for the higher speed of over
GA cents per mile for gasoline
alone.
with respect to car ownership,
it would be well for legislators to
make careful study of this govern
ment report. At one time the motor
car was the sign Of affluence. Now
it is an economic necessity. Its
ownership is conferred in low income
groups; with more than half of all
family cars owened by families with
annual income of $500 or less. The
temptation to add to motorists tax
burdens should be thwarted by the
knowledge that motor car owners
just can't stand any more taxes"

How word .News, Originated

Popular etymology d eri " 8
news" from the initial letters of
the names Of the four cardinal
points of the compassionate, east,
west and south. It is said that be-
fore the time Of newspapers it was
customary to post events of general
interest in public places under four
columns headed IN. E. w. ST." the
happenings from the north being
recorded under N, those from the
east under E, those from the west
under w and those from the south
under S. Hence the word news"
The theory is, however, without
foundation. ''News" is merely the
plural of the word new" and origi-
nally meant new things. In the Four
teenth and Fifteenth centuries the
word was variously written
"newes," nevis" and "newys."

conceded by most as being pretty good
average. Following the development Of
our dry COW feeding program these cows
averaged 1909 pounds. There were
twenty-one cows in the experiment
ranging in age from four to seven years.
1.-THE special dry COW ration developed
at the Purina Experimental Farm as a
part of this dry COW feeding program
is called Dry and Freshening Cow
Chow. It is a body building, laxative,
cooling feed that helps cows to prepare
their bodies for calving and the lacta-
ton period after calving.
How Cows Are Dried off at Purina
Experimental Farm
"At the Experimental Farm, we dry
off our COWS two months before they
are due to freshen, regardless of how
they are milking. This can be done
in one weeks time with any cow milk
ing up to IS pounds day. If she is
to be dried off on the following day,
we milk her out thoroughly at the night
milking and change her feed abruptly
to Purina Dry and Freshening Cow
Chow. Then we don't milk her again
for week. OF course her udder fills
up, but this is only natures way of
stopping the action Of the milk glands.
We feed pounds of Dry and Freshen-
ing Cow Chow to light breeds and 8
pounds to heavy breeds. On the seventh
day, we milk her out clean and massage
the udder to make sure no old milk
remains. Then we seal up the teats
with collodian to keep out infection,
and continue feeding Dry and Fresh
ening Cow Chow until she freshens.
How Purina Experimental Farm Cows
Are Handled After Freshening
"The day our cows freshen we give
them plenty of water at body tempera-
ture. The day after freshening we feed
pounds of Dry and Freshening Cow
Chow and gradually work this amount
up to 10 or II pounds. At the end of
the third week we start changing them
back to Prlrina Milking Cow Chow, and
by the end of the fourth week we have
them entirely on this milking ration"

st. Louis, Mott Is incredible to
imagine a cow pulling train of %
loaded tank cars. Yet that is no bigger
job than she actually is called on to
do each year, according to Meade
Summers, manager of the Dairy De-
partment of Purina Mills.
Through cows udder passes 175,000
gallons of blood in 10-month milking
period" says Summers. "That's enough
to fill % tank cars. From this tremen-
dous stream OF. blood, the udder-one
of the hardest worked manufacturing
plants In the world-must take the
many different things that make milk
and other dairy products.
Far from being rest period simply
because the udder is shut down. the
two months when the COW is dry are
really the most critical and hardest
working period in the animals life.
That's when she needs special care and
feeding. During the dry period most
of the blood that has been passing
through the udder is diverted to the
Job of carrying nutrients to the unborn
calf, of which two-thirds has to be
developed in the last two months be-
fore calving.
Body Reserve Low
Besides building most of the calf
during the two months dry period, the
COW must also rebuild her body for
another long milking period. High
producing cows at peak milk produce
ton drain from their bodies more of
certain minerals and nutrients than
they get from their feed, even though
that feed be carefully balanced milk
ing ration. Most of these minerals and
nutrients have to be replaced during
the two months dry period, if they are
to be replaced at all.
Attention to the ration given a sec
ton of our own herd at the Purina Ex-
detrimental Farm during the two
months dry period, made possible an
average increase of 2,972 pounds of
milk per COW, over ten months lac
tation period. Before these cows were
started on this experiment they av-
eraged 10,107 pounds G. ,''ii's ,,er COW,

Early Inventors 'Outsiders,

was to give such heroes as Oliver
Evans, Mccormick, Morse, Bell,

THE INTERESTING STORY OF
MILK

Leaders in the milk industry told
the story of milk to the Temporary
National Economic Committee in
Washington a few days ago. 1t be-
gan with the days when milk was
delivered in unsanitary containers.
In recent years new and extensive
laboratories have taken the product
in hand, and scientific methods have
given pure dairy products to the
public.
Milk is and always has been, one
of the essential and nutritious of
foods. The idea that the great dairy
companies have an organized trust
was dissolved in the testimony of
Thos. H. McInnerney before a Con-
gressional Committee as he explain
ed that the National Dairy Products
Corporation, of which he is presi-
dent, buys less than per cent of
the nations milk supply direct from
farmers; and that in period of
years the number of its competi-
tors in the fluid milk business in
creased about two thousand, an in
crease of 100 per cent. Under such
conditions, he illustrated 70 Sena-
tor O'Mahoney's Committee, there
would be an impossibility of milk
monopoly gaining control of pro-
duction, farm prices, or retail prices.
The average person in our coun-
try buys 1852 quarts of milk and
NQ h,vft
of evaporated milk, ga pounds of
cheese and IS servings of Ice cream.
That let the statesmen on Capitol
Hill see how their own eating habits
compared with their average con-
stituent's.
The combined sales listed in the
foregoing yielded the National Dairy
Products Corporation less than Is
cents profit for customer in a
whole year, or expressing the cor
poration's profit from the farmers
angle, less than 1 1-5 cents on the
milk the average cow produces In
any one day.
In recent years artificialiy high
farm prices for milk produced tor
sale to consumers in bottles have
had natural tendency to boost re-
tail prices and retard consumption,
and at the same time stimulate farm
production. 1t is owing to this con-
dition that larger portions of the
farm production. are being used for
manufactured dairy products for
which farmers receive lower prices.
thereby lowering the farmers aver
age or blended price.
1t is during recent times that the
great dairy companies have been
able to develop master-salesmen,
and that has been largely due to the
rapid rise in human efficiency in
America. Wages are high and en-
ployment steady and the standards
of living above average among the
workers of the dairy industry. Pub
lie confidence in the purity OF milk,
developed through continuous lab
oratory research, has increased con-
sumption and expanded the dairy
industry.
The Importance of the dairy in
dustry of farmers must have impress
sed the Government Committee,
many of whom may have learned for
the first time that milk is the larg-
est single source of farm income;
that milk's better than average per-
Torrance as a reliable producer of
farm income has put $1,8G00,0O0.-
900 additional in dairy farmers
pockets since 1880.

Wild Boar Fierce Animal

The wild boar is fierce. animal
for its size. Utterly fearless, when
angered it will charge anything. As
they usually roam in packs like
wolves, woe to the sportsman who
misses the charging leader and has
no stout tree handy up which he can
shin in somewhat of hurry. Those
curved tusks would rip him to rib
bons very quickly. And, too, the
wild boar can carry quite a load Of
lead without its stopping his charge.

THE NATIONAL
PAROLE CONFERENCE
IChrlStian Science MOnltOrl

The parole system when properly ad-
mnistered is an instrument of tested
value in the control of crime" This dec
laration by President Roosevelt may well
become the keynote Of the national con-
ference which he has called at Washing
ton.
Public ignorance of what parole ac-
tually is and what constitutes a good
parole system has resulted in careless
condemnation Of the whole idea, altho
penologists and students of criminology
have proved that release of prisoners
under the supervision and guidance of
a well-organized parole mechanism is
the most satisfactory method yet devised
both from the point of view of society
and of the prisoner himself.
Forty-siX states have parole laws, but
less than twelve. according to President
Roosevelt, have provided the machinery
to operate them satisfactorily This,
coupled with the fact that there is need
for uniform parole laws throughout the
country, has done much to prevent pub
lie acceptance Of this desirable method
of handling men leaving prison.
The authorities now conVening in
Washington need look no farther than
the federal government for an example
Of how parole should be handled. No
penologiSt or crime prevention official
should leave this conference without Il
better idea as 10 how the situation in
his particular state can be improved
1t is to be hoped that tangible signs OF
improvement in the parole systems Of
the nation will be the fruits of this con
ference.
