Lice on Chickens.

Thousands ofyoung chickens die annu.
ally simply because they are lousy and
the cause is not apparent owing to the
smallness of the parasites that bury
themselves in the down of the little
chicks and are not seen, and many times
not even suspected, even after the whole
brood is destroyed by them. Various
means have been recommended for this
difficulty, some of which are more de.
structive to the little creatures than the
lice themselves. Sulphur and lard mixed
and applied to the hen, under the wings.
will destroy the insects, but needs care in
applying, else it will prove fatal to the
brood. A strong tea of wormwood OF
tanzy, made by stepping either of these
herbs in hot water, and when cold ap'
piled to the heads of the little chicks
and to the breasts and under the wings
of theold hen, is very effectual. But
perhaps the best remedy, and the safest
withal, is solution of carbolic soap
Take an ounce of carbolic toilet soap and
dissolve it in one quart of warm soft
water; with this thoroughly wet the head
and neck of the chick.
It kills the lice Immediately, and scon

free from the destructive insect. Old
fowls that are lousy may be thoroughly
and easily washed with this solution
with marked benefit. Try it, and be
freed from one of the worst evils o.

dend of eight per cent. was paid. Match
es are much cheaper now than they used
to be, by reason Of some outside competi-
ton with the great combination. The
Chicago manager of this combination,
referring to the constant consumption of
pine, says that his company has pine
enough to last for twenty-five years. 1t
is located in the Ontonagon region of
Michigan. Matches can be made out Of
straw board as well as Of pine, but there
is small inducement to attempt to make
straw board matches while pine can be
had in the production. Wax matches
can also be made cheaply. Southern
pine cannot be used for matches, since it
is too full of pitch. The dry, punk-like
pine OF the northern woods is the only
pine which is really fit for use. The
further north the supply is secured the
better the pine for the purpose of the
