People who use straw mattresses run the risk of being attacked by the straw itch, a disease said to be new to American physicians. It is a peculiar itching, eruptive disease. which has been proved to be due to the attack of a small straw and grain infestfng mite. Public attention has been call ed to the subject by a publication in the last issue of the government pub lie health reports by Joseph Goldberg CT. passed assistant surgeon in the public health service
 Surgeon Goldberger says 1t has been shown that the presence of the mite in the straw or grain is dependent upon the occurrence in the straw or grain of certain insect parasites upon which The mite preys. To the farmer this mite Is ordinarily beneficial in that preying on the insect parasites of wheat the dmage to his crops by the haitter Is minimized.
