MAKES AIM ALMOST CERTAIN
Invention Said to Guarantee Every
Shot a Bullseye, Even In
the Dark.

Charles Pechard, a police official OF
Paris. has invented an attachment
that enables one to shoot revolver
more accurately in the dark than in
broad daylight, the New York lnde-
pendent states.
This attachment consists Of metal
lie tube with lens at one end and n
tiny electric lamp al the other BY
means of mirrors the light is directed
out through the lens as a slender cone.
and Is sufficiently strong at a distance
of some four rods for all practical pur-
poses In the middle of the illumna-
ted field there is a small dark spot
which comedies with the liue of the
bullets flight. This enables the mex
perienced shooter TO hit a selected
part of the burglars anatomy with
more certainty than he could display
in ordinarv target practice
The electric current is supplied by
small dry battery or a storage battery,
which the officer can carry in his
pocket or which the defender OF the
home can place under his pillow. The
light tube can be attached to an ordi-
nary pistol, and 1t may be used MS n
flash with peaceful intent or merely
as a show of force.

result, although some time will be re-
quired. 1t Is of the greatest impor-
tance for the success of this undertak-
Ing that the efforts of the officials
should be supplemented by individual
work by the farmers.
In undertaking measures for get
ting rid of the tick the pest may be
attacked In two locations-on the pas.
tufe and on the cattle. In freeing pas
lures, one method consists In exclud-
ing all cattle. horses and mules from
pastures until all the ticks have died
from starvation. Another method con.
sists In permitting the cattle and other
animals to continue on the infested
pasture and treating them at regular
intervals with agents destructive to
ticks, by dipping.
According to figures gathered BY
one of the veterinary inspectors OF the
bureau OF animal industry. the pres
ence OF the tick among the cattle of
the south not only lessons the value
OF the cattle on the hoof but causes
the gradings of hides that have been
infested with ticks as No. 4 quality.
The same hide, II free from tick
marks. would grade No g. The dif-
ference in .,ise between these two
grades of hides is three cents per
pound As the hide OF southern steers
weighs about AZ pounds. the presence
of the tick in the hide causes loss in
the hide alone more than $1.26 per
hide. Government specialists point out
that the cost OF tick eradication is
