OakdaIe's Appropriation.

Des Moines, July 16-(Special tc
the Review)-SO much misunderstood
ing has arisen regarding the appro
priations made by the recent general
assembly to the state sanitorium at
Oakdale that the people will be inter.
ested to know the real truth.
The state sanitorium will receive in
round numbers when the funds are
available, 100000 The general as
sembly passed a law authorizing a
state levy of one-half mill for five
years TO ra rehabilitation of old or
the construction of new buildings ul-
der the state board Of control.
Architectural drawings Of any
buildings under contemplation by the
beard with the estimated amount OF
money required, must however, be ap
proved by the senate. Plans and es.
Inmates for buildings at Oakdale We're
on file in the state architects Office,
which after the legislature authorized
the millage tax, were presented to the
senate and approved by that body. A
$4,000 building for patients suffering
with advanced tuberculosis and $685.
900 medical building were approved.
AS SOOu as Tic mOucy UCSOulSo d'eAA
able these buildings will be erected at
a total cost of $4,000.
In addition a bill was passed amend
ing the state sanitorium law and ap-
$4,000. It will be well to
note that the manner OF admitting
patients to Oakdale was in no wise
changed; that the same plan exists for
admission as heretofore and that coun-
ty supervisors have nothing whatever
to do with the admission of any
patient to this institution, but that in
cases where state aid is required for
the care and treatment of any patient
the county from which such patient
comes has assessed back to it the cost
IF the care of such person.
In conjunction with the county tu-
oerculosis hospital law, which was
passed at the same time, it will appear
hat the care of INDECENT consumpt-
yes is clearly established and placed !,
lpon county supervisors.
Oakdale really received $9O,OOO.OO.
which eventually will be expended in |
he construction of new buildings at

lale and it is hoped that the people OF
he state will understand that the so

home economics and the allied sci
ences. Registrar Herman Knapp be
lieves this figure to be very conserv
alive. Personally he expects many
more than a thousand new students.
Last year the freshmen numbered
$780," said Mr.. Knapp. "The legisla
ture has made provision for new
two years home makers course for
Iowa girls who have rot graduated
from high school, but who want col.
lege training. A two years course in
mechanics for the trades will be Of
fered for the first time to young men
without high school diplomas. These
two new courses will bring many
students to Ames next fall, in addition
to those who will enter for the regular
courses"
The engineering courses at Ames
and steam laboratory building now be-
ing built, and by the new locomotive
and automobile laboratory soon to be
started. The good roads movement
has resulted in great demand for
highway engineers. Many students
will enroll in engineering at Ames to
fit themselves for such positions.
Nearly 1900 students in chemistry
will be benefited by the completion
next year of the quarter million dol
lar chemistry building provided for
by the last legislature Instruction
in chemistry is particularly strong at
the state college because this subject
underlies almost every course given.
Practically all of the nearly three
hundred students who graduaed from
Iowa State college in June have found
and accepted good positions. and have
begun to realize on the excellent tech
meal training that the state of Iowa
gave to them in her state college. The

Fighting Lice and Mites.

One of the greatest difficulties In the
poultry business is keeping the plant
free from lice and mites and unless
constant vigilance Is kept, and absolute
cleanliness observed, they will get the
upper hand. An ounce of prevention is
worth many pounds OF cure.
There are two points of attack: One,
the birds themselves; the other, the
houses, nest boxes and roosts. The
best way to rid the birds OF lice Is to
give them q good busting with lice
powder. There are several good pow
ders on the market, but very inexpen'
siye and effective one can be made as
follows: Eight parts OF gasoline, one
part crude carbolic acid strength ninety
to ninety live per cent, Stir In sufficient
plaster of Paris to make thick, moist
mixture. Spread this out on paper in
q rather warm room to allow surplus
gasoline to evaporate. The next day
the powder will be ready to use. Keep
this mixture away from the fire, espe-
cially while mixing. Use 1t from sitter
top can.
Remember when using busting pow.
der one application is not sufficient, but
give second a few days after, and a
third and fourth if necessary. When
busting bird, the bulk of the applica'
ton should be in the fluff around the
vent; also in the fluff under the wings,
and on the other vsntral side OF the
body. The dust bath Is great help In
Kidding fowls of lice, but is not enough
especially with the larger breeds.
Twice a year give the houses thor
ough cleaning. This Is done In the
spring aud fall with the use Of good
sprayer and whitewash. See that II
penetrates into all the cracks and crev
Ices. A good disinfectant to be used Of
ten on the walls, floors, nests and rOosts,
consists of three parts OF kerosene and
one part of crude carbolic acid. Apply
this with sprayer and stir we'll wher
about to use.-A. G. Fetter, Ohio.

Here and There.

Whatever it may have done that was
unwise, the legislature which recently
adjourned did one good thing. There
was in the statutes provision for the
protection of life in public buildings,
which required the inner doors of such
buildings to open outward, but had this
regarding the outer doors:
"The outer doors of all such buildings shall be
kept open when the same are used by the pub
lie, unless they open outwards; but fy-doors
opening both ways may be kept closed"
This absurd provision as to the outer
doors, with all its possibilities of danger,
has stood for number of years; but this
legislature has amended the law, so that
it now provides simply that all doors
shall open outwards.. There are some
public buildings in Oxford County which
have been technically within the law as
far as construction is concerned, which
will have to undergo changes before
they will conform to the law as amend
ed.
