WINS FIGHT AGAINST PESTS
supt. Woods Of the Capitol Buildings
and Grounds, Prevents Cater
pillar Invasion.

Elliott Woods. superintendent of the
capitol buildings and grounds. has Just
checked serious invasion of tussock
moth caterpillars. who we're preparing
to devour the big trees on the reser-
vation. The insects appeared few
weeks ago. and were more numerous
and active than In ten years.
Mr. Woods now thinks that victory
over these pests is assured. A large
force of gardeners was engaged in
sweeping the moths off the walls as
they crawled over: then the trees
were sprayed with bordeaux mixture
and girdled with tanglefoot bands.
The only trees not bothered we're the
walnuts. The spraying will be con-
tinued until the end OF August. but
merely as a precautionary measure. as
most OF the insects have been exter-
minated.

WASH AND MEND LITERATURE
Old Books for the Library Of Congress
Are Thoroughly Fumigated
and Repaired.

Fumigated books, books that have
gone through the process OF being
starched, ironed and mended. with
/ their stiffened old backs rubbed and
massaged into semblance of the
elasticity of their youth and fraction
of the strength OF their prime are the
kinds of books that occupy honored
places on the shelves of the Library OF
Congress as part OF its many gift
collections.
The books given to the library come
from various quarters of the world,
some of them, indeed have been dis
inferred from the very bowels OF the
earth itself. For example. take the
Schin collection. or that part of 1t
which was gathered through the efforts
of Ephraim Deinard In the Holy Land.
an unusually fine collection OF Hebrai-
ca, rare parchments. manuscripts and
religious works. Some of them have
been resurrected from graves where
centuries before they had been cere-
moniously buried. Other works In the
collection come from vaults in the
synagogues OF Jerusalem and adjacent
,itiNof anu thCii pibhh won buSh thoe
in some cases heroic treatment was
necessary to restore them to a condl-
ton where they could be handled.
First OF all. such a collection must
necessarily be fumigated. Damp tomlh
and musty walls leave their marks.
When a collection is being fumigated.
the books are set on end In rows on
shelves and left partly opened. so that
the fumes may penetrate to the bind
ing After they are subjected to sui
phurous odors for few days they are
ready for a more intimate process OF
cleansing and repairing.
The enemies of books are time, dust,
stains. mildew, rough handling. finger
marks and bookworms. To put manu-
script into condition for use by the
public the marks Of the enemy of the
volume must be obliterated. and some-
times 1t is necessary to make book
over almost in it's entirety. An old
tome can never be said to be actually
rejuvenated, but 1t can be washed.
mended and rebound. SO that its useful
ness to the reader is Just as potent as
in the days of its youth.

sALloA.eunNlsoN HIGHWAY.
Road over. coehetopa Pass to Open
New State Highway.

Denver-Constfucti work on tho
new link in the Salida-Gunnison high
way leading over CoclIetopa Pass IL
nearing completion. reports the road
engineer of the forest service upon his
return to Denver headquarters. The
road crew at work on a strip eight and
half miles in length over the pass
is making excellent progress. and with
favorable weather conditions should
finish the road before winter sets in.
This new link. covering distance OF
sixteen miles. Is a cooperative pro-
ject between Saguache county and tho
forest service. each party sharing
equally the cost of construction. Work
was begun last year. at which time
three miles was put through. outside
of the boundary of the Cochetopa for
est by the county commissioners. and
four and a half miles was built inside
the forest under the supervision OF the
forest officers.
According to the road engineer, this
strip is a double track roadbed and fol-
lows natural water grade. on a
southern exposure. through the forest.
thus eliminating any need for large
bridges. The average maximum grade
Is but six per cent. OF which there Is
not more than three miles In the ag-
gregate, the remaining portion OF the
road consisting OF easy grades. By
reason of the low elevation. absence OF
steep grades. and the open country
through which 1t passes. 1t is expected
that the Cochetopa Pass road Will
form one of the best and most trav-
eled state highways across the conti-
mental divide.

The business of breeding pure-bred
swine. is a business by itself and 1t
should not be undertaken by anyone
who cannot keep records straight and
who is not willing to invest good
money for improved blood.
The most conservative course is to
select the breed most popular In your
vicinity and improve upon the com

A large proportion of the growth

ing. but must be fed with judgment.
Before feeding. 1t should be heated up
and fed before it becomes cold. In
many cases outbreaks of disease come

DIPPING FOR NANCE

Most of Coal-Tar Dips Are Quite

By NJ. H. REYNoLDs.)

Treatment of hogs for mango

less than two minutes. The hog must
go under. head and all, at least once.
Treatment must usually be repeated
one or more times at intervals of
eight days. Treat the whole herd and
do 1T thoroughly.
An effective dip can be made from
crude petroleum as follows:
Four gallons crude oil.
Sixteen gallons water.
One pound soap.
The soap should be dissolved In the
water by heating. An emulsion ia

the pens. In case of true mango the
fence posts, trees, and everything
against which the hogs can rub must
also be disinfected. Use strong dis

treatment do not put hogs back into
lousy or NANCY pens.
