ERADICATE LICE ON CATTLE Plan Given to Destroy This Pest ® Which Causes Injury and Retards 3 Growth of Stock. % (Prepared by the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture.) Cattle " lice are injurious to all classes of cattle, but the greatest losses oceur in young stock and poorly nour- “Ished old animals. Losses are ¢nused "by. irritation, digestive disturbances, arrested growth, low vitality, and in- ‘creased death rate. ° Ordinarily lice on cattle are not ob- -served until they become so numerous that they cause unmistakable signs of -annoyance. Usually the animals whose .lousy condition first attract attention ‘are the poor, weak, unthrifty members of the herd, and frequently the owner thinks they are lousy because they are. anthrifty, whereas the unthrifty condi- tion may be caused by the lice. Three kinds of lice are commonly .tound on cattle, and all thrée species may be present at the same time, but the same method of treatment may be .used for any of them. When they . vmake their appearance on the cattle duxing the fall or winter they usually spread rapidly until every animal IS Infested. When a herd is grossly in- fested it is not uncommon to see some animals with large areas of skin part- 1y denuded of hair, and limited areas bruised and raw from rubbing agoinst® posts and other objects. Cattle in thig A_Purebred Angus Bull. eondition will not thrive or gain weight normally, and during winter often re- main stunted until the old coat of hair 18 _shed in the spring, at which time most: of the lice disappear. Hand #p- plféations, spraying, and dipping with Insecticides are the methods which the bulletin recommends as remedics. In southern latitudes where the winters #re. mild cattle may be dipped during /the winter months without injury from Pold weather, but in the northern sec tions winters are usually too cold for dfpping or spraying. All animals in «the herd should be trented regardless f the number showing infestation, and the treatment should be repeated in 18 to 16 days. ; . Hand applications are practical only when a few animals are to be treated, but -are speclally valuable in holding the parasites In check during weather 100 cold for dipping or spraying. Some dusting powders obtainable on the market ‘are good when this method is ggd, The following home-made liquid i :dmudleu are also effective: Equal | parts cottonseed oll and keroscne, or keérosene and lard mixed in the pro- portlon of one-half pint kerosene to one pound of lard or crude petroleum. Apply. these remedies with a brush or cloth, covering the entire body, belng particularly careful about the head and 2ars, For spraying and dipping arsen- leal dips, coal-tar creosote dips, and afcotin solutions are recommended. They may be applied with a hand sprayer, but the most effective method i8 to provide a dipping vat and com-. i .pletely dip the cattle two or, in some wases, three times. Fool-Proof Airplane. The latest model of British airplane I8 possible to make such a machine as un alrplane. The machines are so balanced and the wings so arranged, that when the engine stops they glide gradually and easily to earth. The following test shows how stable these airplanes are: A pilot climbed to a . gufficlent height, and then stopped his engine and took his hands off the con- trol, merely keeping his feet on the rudder bar. He steered for an alr- drome twenty miles away, and, having ‘headed her straight, he let the alr- plane do what she liked. She trav- eled the whole twenty miles as stead- iy as a bicycle coasting down a long, straight and geutle hill. Of course the pilot had to take hold of the con- trol stick to land the machine in the afrdrome, but except for that, and the steering, the alrplane made the whole Journey by herself. 2 Look out for Span- ish Influenza.

Perhaps it is too much to say that the best fruit of the educational vine_is produced froms Its’ original source; that what comes of schooling is something quite different from the apparent result at the source; that the best things a man «or woman does are very different from the particular, or nonparticulzrized thing, he or she is directly taught to do. We are turning to the business of making our schools show quick fruit- age of working ability. But it Is at least a fair hazard to opine that the pupils who become “some pumpkins” will cften as not be products known a long way from the special process of education that ex- treme: vocationalists advise, JUST WHAT BILLION MEANS Probably Few People Have Right Con- ception of What an. Enormous Amount It Represents. We hear of billions these days, but it is probable that very few persons have any notion of what an enarmous amount of money a billion represents. We do know, however, how rapidly an expert counter of coins manipulates them. You can scarcely follow the motion of his fingers as he shifts the coins from one pile to another and counts them. , The experts In the treasury department will count 4,000 silver dollars an hour and keep this up all day long, but that Is their Himit. Working eight hours a day, then, an expert coufiter of coin will' count 82, 000 silver dollars in a day, but how long will it take him at that rate to count a million dollars? Thirty one days! But that is only the beginning of the measurements- of “great figures, for if {he same man were to continue to count silver dollars &t the same rate of speed for ten years he would find that he had counted only 100, 000,000 of them, and that to count 1,000,000,000 of them would require 102 yeurs of steady work at the rate of eight hours a day during every working day of every one of the 102 years, Not a Modern Gun. “What were you going to do with this revolver?” -asked Walter Priteh- ard, judge of clty court. “Shoot rahbits,” veplled Abe McMur- ray, colored, age seventeen, 356 Fay- ette street, who was on trial charged with carrying conceaied weapons, The judge examined the weapon, which was o small one, and noticed that the barrel would not revolve auto- matically, attention to this fact, and was told that It would revolve if turned by hand. The Judge still appeared undectded, then finally remarked: “If this was a real gun 1 would fine you $100 and costs, but since It 1s only about half a gun T will make the fine just half the usuzl amount.” Then he wrote $50 and costs across the face of the affi- davit.—Indianapolis News. $10% Reward, $100 The readers of this paper will sleased to lea it there {s at least one dreaded disease that science has heen able to cure in all its stages and that is catarrh.

Arthur T. Mul- len, 621 Alvarado street, and Private Jeremiah Sears, 623 Alvarado street. After enlistment the two.men, :iving in the same building, were assigued to the same division, fought in the same battle, escaping wounds; then in the battle of Argonne they were both wounded October 14 at the sanie time, by machine-gun bullets; and ‘were placed side by side on cots in 1ie same- hospital.
