STRAW ITCH RIDDLE SOLVED.
Indiana Woman Discovers That 10
Was Caused by an Insect In the
Wheat.

Indianapolis. Ind.-They have been
having Drand-new ailment in
Fayette county, dubbed straw Itch"
and only recently correctly diagnosed.
1t has tiouished there since last wheat
harvest taking the form OF RASH"
or shingles" and accompanied with
an itching sensation weil-nigh intol-
cradle. Whether or not it was con-
tagious nobody stopped to investi-
gate. They were too busy 1t was
known that under certain conditions
1t appeared. but just the particular
conditions under which it fourished
were not apparent
good housewife in Connersvilla
has finally solved the riddle. Since
the last wheat harvest. when people
filled their ticks with fresh straw,
they have been sleeping over millions
of little pests which. under a mag
nifying glass. take the form of d.
minutive flies. Last summer a new
pest was known to have attacked the
growing wheat. Eggs which they
laid were afterward Matched, espe-
cially In ticks where straw had been
placed, and which were warmed by
the sleeping forms of human beings.
Men engaged in bailing straw also
encountered breaking out" and
persons who carried straw to be used
on a roadway over which gravel
teams could pass In making a I'LL"
found their necks, breasts and arms
covered with small eruptions. They
scratched and speculated and specu.
lated and scratched, but failed to re-
alfze the cause. The other day this
observant Connersville woman, while
emptying her ticks. discovered the
presence OF myriads of these little
insects. 80 small they could readily
penetrate the meshes of ordinary
fabric. The ticks We're boiled in
healthy hot water, and the torment
from which the family had suffered
for months was at an end. The neigh
bors profited by the experience. and
the little insects responsible for
" straw itch" are now no more in
Fayette county. They have had
their day and generation, and no lon.
ger will individuals who trenched
upon their camping grounds while
seeking rest be subjected to unpleas-
ant sensations.

providing FOR the election of Unied
