India Has Special Home For Snakes BOMBAY. -- Active in health re- search of all kinds is the Haffkine Institute of this city, which in recent years has performed such useful work as investigating the causes, incidence and remedies of bubonic plague. One of its departments is a “nursing home” for snakes, where at present there are about 40 specimens, including cob- ras, vipers, kraits and echis. There is a considerable export from, India of snake venom. Cobra venom is used in relieving acute pain from cancer and angina pectoris, and that of the viper has been found effective in checking excessive hemorrhage. One problem the institute has to bat- tle is the habit the cobra has devel- oped of going on hunger strikes. When the proposed “snake farm” in the in- stitute is established, the reptiles, un- der natural conditions, should have better appetites, and thrive and mul- tiply. This would relieve the trans- portation companies of the anxiety involved in bringing snakes from the jungle to the institute, Haffkine Institute got its name from Waldemar Mordecai Haffkine, distinguished bacteriologist, under the Indian Government, who died à few years ago. % Smiles and * Chuckles MATTRESSES FOR SALE MATTRESSESâ€" SPRING BARGAINSâ€" New Felt Mattresses, $3.50; New Spring Mattresses, $8.50, From factory to user.

April fool conies but once a year, the other kind come every day. Young Sonâ€"“Say, Dad!” Dadâ€"-“Now what, young fellow " Young Sonâ€"“Nothing much. I was just, fighting these pesky flies and. wondering if Noah had two flies in the ark.” Dadâ€"“Why, I guess so. They say he had two of every kind of living creature oil that old boat,” Young Sonâ€"“Then, what I can’t figure out is why he didn’t swat both of them when he had the opportunity. Read It Or Not April Fool's Day is called: Trick Day in Portugal, Cuckoo Day in Scotland. Fop Day in Holland. Fish Day in France. Doll Day in Japan. - Joke Day in Russia. Boob Day in Spain. The word “April” is derived from the Latin aperire, to. open, as the buds begin to open, at this time of the year. In Nero’s time the month was called Neroneus. Woman -(to new acquaintance) â€" “Now you aren’t the kind, of a woman who, lets the -dishes pile up in the sink, are you?” Friendâ€"“I should say not.

The proof of the pudding is the eat- ingâ€"not the making; Two men were hotly discussing the merits of a book. Finally, one of them said to the other: Firstâ€"“No, Friend, you won’t ap- preciate it.

At the annual meeting of the Royal Winter Fair on March 23 when the Hon, G. Howard Ferguson was guest speaker, the directors, reviewing the past year, found ample cause for con- gratulation, they stated, that the Fair, now in its 17th year, gives abundant proof of a freshness and vigor to as- sure its permanence, and that public recognition of the annual service it performs within the national agricul- tural scheme continues to grow in ever-widening importance. The last Fair was notable for exten- sion in several departments and for consolidation of established lines of work, in other departments. One of the most significant developments was the expansion to twice their previous size of exhibits of Seed and Grain. There is no doubt, the report adds, that with more suitable grain-growing seasons the Show at the Royal Winter Fair will attain truly national import- ance. Signs of Healthy Growth Expansions also were made in the Women’s Exhibits and in. the Dog Show, as also in the local, and historic exhibits of rural activities, and a new activity was the revival of the Silver Fox and Mink Show, In fact, the steady improvement noted for several years past was carried forward with- out abatement in every department in 1937. The growing number of American live stock owners who exhibit proves the confidence it has established, notably in the Royal Horse Show and in the cattle divisions. The directors look upon this feature as one of the best signs for the healthy growth in their institution in the coming décade. The financial statement shows a small but satisfactory surplus for the past year. Following a penmanship contest between more than 200 Japanese' wives and girl students in a callig- raphy school in Hamacho, Japan, the scrolls were sent to Japanese soldiers in North China. High-speed and motion picture cameras are being used by the Afri- can Railway and Harbor Administra- tion to determine the speed at which trains can negotiate curves with saf- ety. Auto Radio Warns Of Nearing Train New Invention Causes It To Blare A Warning of Approaching Danger A red light will, flash on the (lash- board and the auto radio will blare a warning of trains approaching grade crossings with, a new radio invention described last week at Gary, Indiana- Designed to work in autos that are within the danger zone when a train approaches.a crossing, the device sig- nals the auto dashboard at the same time that it "starts the usual crossing lights and bells. • The device, Clausing, one of its In- ventors, explained, consists of a small radio transmitter placed at grade crossings and actuated by approaching ITCH ,.,STOPPED IN A MINUTE .. .

A wire Is strung front the transmitter to a distance of about, one-quartef mile along the road on both sides ot the crossing. Picks Up Waves Waves emanating from the wire,' within ft 100-foot radius are picket'1 up by a mechanism installed in autp radio receiving sets. The pickup ip, the auto radio can he set to operate at varying distances from a crossing. It operates only when a train is ap- proaching. Even if the auto radio is playing music, the warning signal will drown out the harmony, said Its in- ventors. Installation of the red warn- ing light on the dashboard ,can be op- tional. The pickup, it was said, could be built Into radio sets for from $3 to $4, and the crossings transmitters could be installed for small cost. GARDENING PRUNING From March until June is consi4~| ered the best season for pruning, but there are a few specific exceptions.1 Most of these are the early blooming, shrubs. These should be left until' after blooming. Grapes must be pruned early in March to avoid ex- cessive bleeding. Raspberries arf pruned after the crop has been pro*; duced and then all the year old canes are removed. The main object of pruning is to open up the centre of the growth so that sunshine and air may penetrate' freely and also, of course, to product a symmetrical plant. Naturally -any'; dead or weak growth should be re-; moved and also branches that rub11 against each other. A HOT BED Where a fairly large quantity of flower or vegetable plants are to be started early indoors, a hot bed Is' indispensable, but where only a feyfj of each variety are wanted, the job may be carried out successfully in a1 sunny window. The hot bed is usu#i ally prepared in March and simply] consists of a bed of fresh horse m&T$f ure, which supplies the heat, aboii| 13 inches deep. On this, two or three' inches of fine soil are placed am) after the bed has heated up and then cooled down againâ€"a matter of three or four daysâ€"the seed is sown in rows a few inches apart. The be is protected by rough boarding alon the side or heaped up earth and oh top, about 10 to 18 inches above the bed, is placed a window sash well] glassed and sloping towards the south. When the plants have (level-1 oped their second set of leaves they, are thinned out and before being, transplanted outside they are hard- ened in a cold frame which is simply] a hot bed without any heating ma- terial. The window hot bed is simp-, ly a shallow box two or three inches] deep filled with fine soil, kept well moistened. COUGHS Take half a feaspootifiil of* Mi tiare?: s in molasses.
