HK Decision not Reached. 0 Much more fighting, however, must Lj??e waged before a final decision is F. cached. Meanwhile the battle has H-.ccn resumed in Central Poland where H^he Russians have made a slight adRj ance, and the engagements in the WWarpathians, Eastern Galicia and BuRfexwina continue with unabated fury, jlw From what can be gathered from of jjflhcial reports, the Russians, despite ^Bislaughts made upon them from all ft|fdes by Austrians and Germans, have till a^e t0 maintain their strength n; all points and to throw in new MFjOrtps where they were necessary.

I NORWEGIAN VESSEL SUNK The Second Neutral Vessel to go Down After Germany's War Zone Decree. The Norwegian steamer Regin was sunk off Dover by either a submarine or a mine. The crew of 22 was saved The Regin, carrying coal from the Tyne to Bordeaux, sank ten minutes after she was struck. The Regin, is the second Norwegian* steamer to encounter a submarine or mine in the English channel since Feb ruary 18, the effective date of Germany's war zone decree. The tank steamship Bclridgc was torpedoed by a German submarine off Folkestone la3t week, but was not sunk. The Regin was of 1,107 net tonnage 2(55 feet long and was built in 1912. The Nordykn, another Norwegian ship, went down in the Baltic last week, probably as a result of striking a mine or being torpedoed. Eusin the evening bythem olight wwy Ah!

Electric Bitters, a Spring Tonic. Submarine Fully Demonstrated. ( Associated Press Dispatch) New York, Feb. 23.?The value of the submarine as a means of offense as well as defense has been fully demonstrated in the opinion of former Rear Admiral Frances T. Bowles, retired, formerly chief constructor of the United States Navy, who arrived from a two months stay in Germany. Rear Admiral Bawlcs was a close observer of the submarine operations while in Germany. He expressed the belief that German vessels disguised as neutral craft were utilized to sup_ 1 . I ! ? * i * ? " jny suumunnes wun iuci 01 torpedoes which he thought explained the ability of the German undersea fighters to reach the Irish sea and return to their bases. The latest model of submarine, he added, can carry sufficient fuel to coVer about 1,000 miles, and by conserving this supply is able to remain as long as a week from its base. Heretofore in naval warfare, Rear Admiral Bowles said, submarines have been considered valuable for defense only, but the fact that their offensive power now has been established, he should not be taken as proof that the day of the battleship is past. "The battleship," Rear Admiral Bowles declared, "as well as other units of the well organized navy, is just as useful as ever in its special field. Like the aeroplane, it is merely that the submarine ceases to be an un known value. Mechanically the sub marines lias practically reached perfection, but its size and cruising radius will now oe enlarged as its means of offense is recognized."

I I EFFICIENCY METHODS USED IN THE HOME Miss Anna farrows Spends Some Time at Winthrop C* EXPERT HOME ECONOMIST v ^ ^___ Little Kinks Which Will Save the Time of the Housewife Even in Dishwashing. Miss Anna Barrows, secretary National Home Economics Association and Demonstrator in Domestic Science, Teacher's College, Columbia University, spent February 8th and 9th at Winthrop College. Miss Barrows is one of the most noted women in her field in the United Sta tcs. She demonstrated batters and doughs and stressed the use of common sense in all culinary operations We all agree that dish-washing is burdensome. In muffin-making, for instance if the flour is measured first, the liquid next, and the shortening third, only one cup need to use. So many women would use three. Paper was used also to lessen dish-washing butter and lard being^ lajd,on it. instead of in cups or plates. Paper was used to scrape the refuse from the soiled dishes, also. Miss Barrows was mistress of the art of washing dishes while the work of preparing and cooking the food was in progress. So many women allow the dishes to accumulate in a hopeless pile as the work of preparing the meal progresses, instead of washing bowls and spoons, knives and forks immediately after using them. If utensils in which eggs have been cooked are put to soak in cold water, those used in the prenn v*n f ? ? - ?~^ ' ? - ? j/tuuiiuii WJ ;> w IX l?"> UI" )^1 L'tlfty lUUUh 111 hot water, the dish washing will be made easier. So many house-keepers do not ralize that china need not be wiped. If set in a wire plate rack or a home-made wooden one and boiling water poured over them, they will dry while the house-keeper is washing the pots and pans. These may be homely details but dish-washing has to be done three times a day three hundred and sixty five days in the year. The gentlemen are studying the work of faAory and of mill, of farm and of shop, in order to make it more efficient. An efficient expert studied the motions of a brick-layer. That bricklayer stooped to select the brick from an unassorted pile at his side and then laid it. He laid one hundred and twcn ty bricks in an hour.* The expert recommended that the brick-layer be furnished with a movable shelf on which an unskilled laborer should lay thp assorted bricks. The same bricklayer laid three hundred and fifty bricks per hour after this was done. Our women need to study housekeep ing processes and apply the principles of efficiency to them. Efficiency with a man means the most successful work possible in the least time with the output of energy. It needs to be realized what is a good business principle for woman. Miss Harrows had a light, quick touch; did not make a waste motion; did not use an unnecessary implement; washed the dishes used in the pre pamtion of the food while the demonstration was in progress; talked steadily concerning food values and common-sense methods of doing work, and turned out toothsome products with a minimum use of energy and time. Let our women follow her example, each in our own kitchen so that the work and the worker will be benefitted. OBITl AKY.

Clemson College, Feb. 27.?Swat the fly before he becomes a fly, will be the principal point of attack in the Cleihson College anti-fly campaign this spring and summer. Swat the fly while he is still an egg or maggot. It is cheaper, easier and much more practical. The best way is to spray cow or horse manure, the most common breeding place for flies, with something that will kill the eggs and maggots. Ordinary commercial now dered borax is recommended for this purpose by A. F. Conradi, state entomologist and head of the entomoligical division of Clemson College. The directions which Prof. Conradi gives are to be found in slightly fuller form in Bulletin No. 118 of the federal bureau of entomology. This is a technical or professional bulletin, however, and Prof. Conradi has altered the form of the directions somewhat to suit them better to the requirements of South Carolina farmers and householders and has reprinted them in a little circular which may be obtained by any one writing to the college. The'bureau of entomology advises applying a heaping pint measure or two teacupfuls of powdered borax to every eight bushels of manure. Apply the borax particularly around the outer edges of the pile with a flour sifter or any fine sieve, and sprinkle two or three gallons of water over the manure when it has ben treated. Apply the borax to the fresh manure immediately after its removal from the] stable. Flies lay their eggs in fresh manure. When the borax comes in contact with the eggs it prevents their hatching. The maggots congregate at the outer edge of a manure pile, so that most of the borax should be applied there. The directions given above apply especially to horse manure. However, the bureau advises using the same treatment for fly eggs and maggots in other manures and also suggests applying powdered borax to garbage and refuse of all sorts. Water should be added after the borax has been applied. Applications of borax in the horse stable and cow barn should be frequent and regular. These are the two principal sources of flies and, accordingly, of a number of kinds of disease germs, since they furnish the flics which carry the germs. Every house, and especially every farm house, should have screen doors j and windows. It is a fine plan also to use the fly traps which will be demonj strated to any one by the county demI castration agents of Clemson College. I llllt theso mcthrwls. Prof ('nnrmli ! pointed out last year, are like putting' buckets under the holes to catch the water when the roof is leaking. The 1 only effective way to stop the flow of 'water is to stop the leak. 1 Similarly, the only effective and thorough way of ridding the premises of flies is to cut them off at the source, which is in great majjority of cases the manure pile. In other words, swat the fly before he becomes a fly. When writing to Prof. Conradi for the circular of directions, ask for sup piemcnt to Circular No. 2.'?. K<? S Nervoos? ?
