Mites.

The roost mite is probably the cause
of more loss to farm poultry raisers
than any other pest or Nsease. The
great difficulty in destroying mites
on many farms is that chickens are
allowed to roost in too many places
II the chicken house proper is the
only building infested with mites the
difficulty of destroying them is not
great.
In the day time they are to be found
lodged in the cracks near the rost-
ing places of the chickens. They can
be killed with various liquids, the best
in point of cheapness being boiling
water. Give the chicken house thor
ough cleaning and scald by throwing
dippers of hot water in all places
where the mites can find Judgment
Hot water destroys the eggs as well
as the mites.
Whitewash is good remedy, as it
buries both mites and eggs beneath
coating OF lime from which they can
not emegre. A solution of carbolic
acid in kerosene, at the rate of pint
of acid to one gallon of oil, is an eff
fective lice paint. Another substance
used for destroying insects or SINH
lar pests is carbon bisulphide. This
is liquid which evaporates readily,
the vapor destroying the insects or
mites.
Carbon bisulhhide or other fumigat-
ing agents are not effective in the av-
erage chicken house, because the
house cannot be tightly closed. The
liquid lice killers on the market are
generally very effective. killing the
mites by contact, and also by vapor.

Split Ends of Hair.

1t is essential for the proper growth
of the hair that the split ends should
be clipped off with the scissors. The
easiest way to do this is to separate
the hair into strands, going to work
at 1t Systematically, beginning at the
front on one side and taking one
strand after another around to the
front of the other side. Twist each
strand tightly and the hairs of diff
ferers length will stand out so that
they may be easily clipped. This is
better than singing the hair by
means Of lighted tapers passed quick
ly along the strand so that the hairs
which stand out will be burned OF.
Unless this is done by one who IL an
expert the other hairs will become
burned and the hair will become un-
even.

practical method of killing the ticks
on cattle is to dip them in crude oil.
Beaumont oil has proven most effec-

to the landlords, he said. AS a busi-
ness proposition it was better, he said,
for some one other than the landlord
to take the risk of advancing money.
The white men are not going TO I'LL
lands as wage hands. and TO pass this
bill will force the white people either
to the cotton mills or away from the
state. The tendency in the up-country
now is for the whites 10 go TO the
mills or towns The white man is not
going To ask favOrS: he Will go to the
cotton mills. They say the merchant
charges eXOrbtant interest, and ne
asked how much more they would
charge if there were no security. He
wanted the merchants TO know that
he for one did not brand them as uSu-
rerS and men without feeling. The
merchants as a class are honorable
men, and he doubted if they charged
as much as the landlord would. AS
certain as this issue is put before the
people correctly they will condemn
this repeal. Mr.. Graydon has start
ling array of figures from thirty one
out of the forty-One counties, and
these reports from the clerks OF court
showed that last year there were 9O,-
900 liens given. The missing counties
would run the number up to 100000,
or an average of 5000 liens to the
10000 liens were for twenty-seven
millions dollars credit. He gave these
illustrations from the record of the
liens given last year: Orangebuurg. o.
500; Abbeville. 4,40O; Anderson, 4, 900;
Aiken 1920; Barnwell, 1856; LeNing-
ton. 1861. Take away this basis OF
credit and what is offered instead as
a basis of credit? The only argument
advanced is to control labor. Nobody
is forced to use the lien, yet 1t is the
basis of credit they can get. He dened
anyone to show when the agricultural
conditions were better than they are
today. He did not think it worth While
to worry about the farmers move
ment asking for repeal. He said that
the negro and the lien law gave South
Carolina the first stand as a cotton
producing state. 1t made more cotton
per acre than any other state. He pre-
sented picture of the present day
prosperity of South Carolina and
wanted to know why this law should
be repealed for an untried experiment.
One-third of the total population
would be directly and most disastrous
ly affected by this repeal of the lien
law, and what's the use of it, he asked.
