Right Colors Good Medicine

Modern scientific research has
firmly established the fact that the
right colors in the right places may
be equivalent to an effective medi-
cine for certain types of mental de-
preston, and actually stimulate ef-
ficiency and production by relieving
the individual of the inhibition of
dull and depressing surroundings
which definitely retard progress in
everyday occupations. The effect of
colors upon the human mind is en-
phasized by definite findings that ac-
cording to the colors used, rooms
may be made to seem warmer or
colder than the actual registration
of the thermometer, longer and high
er, or shorter and lower than their
actual measurements, dark or de-
pressing, or bright and cheering to
the occupants.

NOT ENOUGH BEEF

According to market reports from
Chicago, Kansas City, st. Paul, and
Omaha there were AZ per cent fewer
cattle passing through the stockyards
in the first two weeks of August
than during the corresponding two
weeks of 1912. Perhaps the black
market stepped up its competition
with the packing houses, inasmuch
as unofficial reports from housewives
in Virginia indicate that they got
more than usual supplies from local
markets during the depression de-
spite the reports from official sources
and the big butchers in the Middle
West.
When Congress gets back to town
OPA Administrator Brown is going

about replacing men in OPA who are
doing a good job with deserving

Discover Huge Deposit of
Beryllium Ore in Oregon

Discovery of a mountain" of
beryllium ore in southern Oregon
puts the United States in position to
develop this strategic material right
in it's own "back yard"
Hailed as the worlds largest
known deposit and as having high
percentage content of the war-vital
metal, the deposit has been report
ed to the War Production board.
Normally, beryllium is imported
from Brazil, Argentina and South AZ
RIGA, says the National Geographic
society.
Pure beryllium is three times
lighter than aluminium, is harder
than steel, is rustproof. 1t would
be ideal for airplane construction II
1t were not so brittle. A piece
dropped on the floor will shatter.
Scientists are working on a treat
ment which will retain the metals
lightness and hardness while over
coming its brittleness.
Adding 2 per cent beryllium to SO
per cent copper or nickel changes
these "soft" metals into alloys hard
er, stronger and with more tensile
strength than the best steel. The
non-corrosive quality Is also trans
muted to the alloys.

Immediately asked themselves.
Also they wondered just what
the OPA meant by this sentence In
It's statement: "the holders of ration
coupons will be expected to use no
more gasoline than is absolutely nee
essary to meet their essential needs"
In other words, the ban on pleas
ure driving Is not entirely lifted,
though enforcement Is ended. The
use of gasoline in IL Eastern states
is thus put again on a "let-your-
conscience be your guide" basis
which was admittedly an unsuccesa-

Excavation work in Canar valley
Of Ecuador established cultural
sequence which makes it possible to
reconstruct the local history. Be-
tween A. D. 1000 and 1900 the Canari
Indians settled in the valley. They
were an agricultural people who
made very fine pottery and lived in
houses constructed of upright poles
and mud, rooted with grass thatch.
During the early years of their &C.
cupation of the valley, they appar-
emily made little use of metal, but
later they made copper axes and
elaborate gold ornaments. About
A. D. 1400 the Canaris were strongly
influenced by the Puruha Indians,
who lived in the mountains to the
north, and about so years later the
Canaris were conquered by the In
cas-, who succeeded in adding most
of Ecuador to their empire.

Early Animal Cures

A review of early livestock books
offers perhaps the most amusing
method of discovering the progress
modern science has made In protect
ing the health Of farm animals. For
example, a book published In 1893
tells that a greasy dish-cloth Is q
good treatment for saddle sores. A
curious cure for red water in cattle
consisted of drenching them with
milk in which a red-hot iron had
been quenched. Turnip poultices
were also recommended as cure
for all sorts of ills. One of the most
interesting comments was the sur.
gestion that the livestock owner con-
tinue to try different treatments I'm
Ill he found the right one. And one
might add-if the animal lived long
enough.

OCTOBER srd-9th SET ASIDE FOR
NATIONWIDE FIRE PREVENTION

With the slogan Fires Fight For
The Axis the National Fire Protec-
ton Association has set aside Octo-
Der 3rd to 9Th as Fire Prevention
Week. The headquarters of this or
ganization are at so Batterymarch
Street, Boston 10, Mass, and to
prove that their campaign is not an
idle dream and useless hurrah, they
have issued sixteen-page pamphlet
profusely illustrated to visualize for
the public the carelessness which re-
suits In fires SO destructive to homes,
apartment houses, stores, barns and
factories.
When someone's carelessness re-
suits In fire that destroys a plant
engaged In the manufacture Of
goods essential to the war effort, the
war is over for the plant. AS an act
Of patriotism and good citizenship,
people need to check up on all the
safious acts of thoughtlessness that
can and actually do cause fires. There
-, for instance, the carelessly thrown
lighted cigarette butt, the electric
iron with its worn cord that is left
on when the housewife hurries to
answer the phone or doorbell; gaso-
line and kerosene stored around the
home; trash that is allowed to ac-
cumulate In cellars; matches kept
exposed instead of being kept In
metal containers; faulty furnace
pipes and fues; fire doors that are
allowed to get out of adjustment
Oftentimes parapets and Prevails
which would mean only partial loss
Instead of total destruction are ne
glected-these all add up to what
the public can do to lessen fire haz-
ards and SO save life and property.

"Our Armed Forces are on the

"We are going to win the war and

Careful Management Aids
In Breeding Good Rabbits

Good breeding and sound manage
ment provide the foundation of sue
cessful rabbit husbandry, r. E. Cal
lender, wildlife specialist, says. The
beginner, he says, may make the
mistake of handling the rabbits too
much, when they should be handled
as little as possible.
"Never lift a rabbit by the ears
or feet, but take hold of the loose
skin over the shoulders with one
hand and place the other hand under
the hind quarters so that most of
the weight will be supported from
beneath" he cautions. Keep the
feet turned away from your body
so that you won't be scratched. Fry
ers should be handled with especial
care so they will not be bruised and
their value reduced.
It will pay rabbit raisers, whether
they are producing meat for their
own table or undertaking CONNER
cial venture, to keep records, the
specialist says. Mutations should be
made Of the time of breeding, time
of kindling, number in the litter,
deaths, number weaned, the date of
weaving, expenses, and receipts and
other pertinent information.
Mr.. Calender has other sugges-
tions on the care of litters. Hutches
should be cleaned thoroughly q day
or SO before the young are expected,
and the doe should be provided with
a nest box containing plenty of
straw. When the rabbits are a day
or so old, the weak ones should be
disposed of. The number OF rabbits
left In the litter should not exceed
the. number which the mother can
feed, which win be about six or
seven, he points out. Sometimes the
extras can be given to = nurse doe,
Mr.. Calender said.
