COW IS IMPORTANT FIGURE IN INDUSTRY Remarkable Variety of Arti cle* Made From Milk. Washington.—"If the humble cow ever aspired to trademark her prod ucts the average shopper would be amazed at the labels Made from milk’ which would adorn his purchases— purchases ranging from born-rim spec tacles to chessmen, magazines to ra dio sets," says a bulletin from the Na tional Geographic society’s Washing ton headquarters. “Consider a debutante’s ball, which is a most Inappropriate place to con template the unromantic cow. The oc casion would lose much of its glamor If the cow didn’t supply the milk which helps provide many other ad juncts than the ice cream. “Yonder maiden's burnished golden hair Is kept in place by a Haring comb, made of milk ; she toys with a milk handled fan; she made her toilet somewhat hastily with an array of ar ticles largely made of milk, because she received her belated Invitation from a procrastinating young man through a telephone receiver made of milk. She is Jotting down her dance engagements on a program made of milk, while she chats during Intermis sion with an escort flecking ashes from a cigarette in a milk-made holder. "Sounds a bit far-fetched, doesn’t It? But 3 per cent of casein in cow's milk today Is the raw material for a kaleidoscopic array of manufactured products. “Nor does this take Into account that, for every six couples at the dance, somewhere in the background Is one cow. For at our present rate of consumption every twelve persons consume the inifct product of one cow. Milk as Staff of Life. “Bread has a reputation for being the ’staff of life.' but milk more nearly fulfills that definition. Substitutes for our customary breads may be had; but there is no substitute for milk. Our civilization depends literally upon a plentiful supply of good milk. "Even the elimination of the casein from milk, the element which pro vides most of the by-products, would be inconvenient. Chemically, casein Is the principal nitrogenous constituent of milk; popularly, it Is the ‘curd’; and its first and principal use is for cheese. “Our animal Immigrants have been neglected. Their importance deserves a society of their descendants. Eco nomic geography has been influenced by the animal winners of our West. When, in 1626, a packet of the Dutch West India company lamled on Man hattan island with a cargo of domestic animals and agricultural implements It paved the way for a principal indus try of the Empire state of 1924. Eco nomically, the New Amsterdam set tlers were cheeseinakers. “After the Black Hawk war. In 1882, the progeny of these settlers shaped Wisconsin's economic destiny by driving their covered wagons up the west shore of Lake Michigan. Wherefore Wisconsin last year pro duced $9,000,000 worth of cheese. “The very names of cheeses— Cheshire, Gorgonzola, Edam, Cheddar, Parmesan, and many others—read like a gazetteer. The genealogist. Sher lock Holmes of the family tree, might get important clues of people’s origin by the cheeses they eat. “There is a fascination, too, in the making of cheese. The spherical Edam cones are reputed to be dark red to this day because. In the days before pure food laws, a consignment was tinted with a hurmles solution of car mine. Just why people like to eat In pink, rather than yellow, is a prob lem for the psychologists, hut that preference not only keeps the cheese red. but It has virtually eliminated yellow tomatoes from the market, and causes a heavy monetary loss to sal mon shippers if, perchance, their catch happens to be white instead of pink. some uecoranve uneescs. “The Italian Parmesan cheeses are kept for several years and then are polished with a mixture of charcoal and linseed oil until they shine like ebony. The housewife throws moldy bread into the garbage pall, but when she buys Roquefort cheese she judges its quality by the green blotches, which are developed by introducing bread mold Into the sheep's milk of which Roquefort Is made. "In recent years manufacturers have become active competitors of cheesemakers In buying casein. The substance is highly cohesive and is lit tle afTerted by heat or moisture. Hence It Is used as glue, and also as a binder In making glazed paper, In dyeing cot ton cloth and In piecing together lami nated furniture. "If a drug store were to display on a single shelf Its articles In which casein Is used the exhibit would re semble a rummage sale. There would be earrings and shoe polish, oilcloth and medicinal tablets, photographic plates and strings of beads.” India “Flu” Epidemic Death Toll 13,000,000 London.—Between 12,000,000 and 13,000,000 people in India died dar ing the lntluenza epidemic in the winter of 1SU8, it is revealed by the Indian census of 1921. The popula tion In 1921 was 318,942,480, an in crease of 1.2 per cent over the 1911 census, but It la several points under the 1918 estimated census, due to the epidemic. There are about 9,000,000 more males than females In India, and much headway In education, especially among females, Is shown by the 1921 census. In religious beliefs the Hin dus number 686 out of every thousand of the population. Mohammedan ad herents number 217 a thousand, Bud dhist 87, tribal religions 31 and Chris tians 16. The density of population In the whole of India la now 177 a square iwiia varying from a maximum of 678 in i to a minimum of 8 In KNIFE COULD BE LOST UNDER NAIL Massachusetts Man Makes One From Stem of Moth er’s Earring. Boston.—A knife so small that in can be lost under tlie nail of the little finger Inis been made by Solomon Lorenze Baxter, a watchmaker of Wellesley Village. Formed from the stem of his moth er’s earring, the knife Is only one eighth of an Inch long, and has seven parts, consisting of two handles, a back spring, three rivets and a blade. Mr. Baxter has fashioned it exuctiy like his own regulation-size penknife. Tlie microscopic knife opens and shuts easily and its blade is sharp enough to cut. Air. Baxter, ever since he was a child, bus had for his hobby the mak ing of minute objects. His culminat ing achievement has been this micro scopic knife which he has to carry around In a glass tube. The knife can be seen clinging to the sides of the bottle or on the cork. In addition to this knife, Mr. Baxter has three others which he calls large knives, but which are only a quarter of an Inch larger than the microscopic one. He carries them about In a small rnnnila bag. They are strung on a gold chain, one knife made of hard rubber with a shining blude of gold, and the other two mother-of-pearl, with silver blades. Other Unique Knives. The hobby that culminated with the fashioning of the smallest knife in the world, started with the construction of a minute knife made out of a coin for his mother. He followed this one with a knife shaped like a man's leg, the blade fitting into the part correspond ing to the thigh. In his early days his only tools were a peg, an awl and a tile, and with these he once made a padlock containing 22 rivets, out of six sliver quarters of his mother's. Many people have tried to take a picture of his knives, but they are all too small. Mr. Baxter, who is almost seventy one, has had a varied and interesting life. He was horn in Burnham, Me., and early in his life went out West, where lie says cowboys were "wild and wooly' enough. He had many fascinating tales to tell of those days. About the only thing that he brought back Fast him was a gambler's lucky ring. It was a plain gold ring, and the gambler traded it to Baxter for a watch, hut the luck did not last and Air. Baxter finally got rid of It. Has Other Hobbies. Besides his interest in knives. Air. Baxter has two other hobbies, clocks and firearms. He makes small banjo clocks, and has been known to finish one in a day. He has made about 12 of them, and no two are alike. His watches nnd knives have been shown to travelers from all over the world. Among his treasures are antique wooden clocks, more than 150 years old. He likes to make over grand father clocks and to work In wood, es pecially mahogany. One of his clocks is a French Willard clock that is very valuable. Among his firearms is a pistol 250 years old, mounted with silver and gold, and an old-fashioned flintlock gun with a pepper box ; a gun with a knife attached, and a nameplate In a foreign tongue. One of his fowling pieces, made by a famous firm, has en graved on It a man, a dog. a fountain and roosters, and Is very old and vain able. Another of his possessions Is a dueling pistol, with the former owner’s name on the back. A cork pistol, used in frontier fight ing against the Indians, was given by Its owner and user. Doctor Newliall, to Mr. Baxter, a personal friend. An Indian gun. shaped much like a mid iron used in golf, was given him by his wife's uncle, and It Is very old and rare.—Boston Olohe. . -h i i i"H-i l I i i i i' i-i I I I ■ Scientist Says He Has Weighed Atom !!

So many people overlook this one matter of fastidiousness And do so in spite of the fact that in conversa tion the teeth are the one most noticeable thing about you.
