there. Well, l am somewhat sur
prised at this public confession of the
fact that we are brothers, but as no
one in my immediate community here
happens to be reader of the Message

quite so hard on me as on him. How
ever, would like to see the "Old Fell
low" today, and tell him 1 forgive
him if he never tells it again.
We are having some hot days here
now, but most always a good breeze
from the north. Nights are cool and
fine for resting, and we don't have
time to stop for the heat. Am out on
a 40 acre alfalfa farm in the dairy

but large enough to keep us pretty
busy
Best wishes for the Message and

MOSQUITOES CARRY FEVER.
Get Mr.. "Skeeter" or He May at Last
Get You.

''In addition to being pests many
insects are carriers of disease" writes
DR.. M. p. Ravenel of the University
of Missouri to the Message.
Some insects, such as the ordinary
house fly, act mechanically as filth
carriers. Other insects act like a
syringe, mechanically drawing blood
from sick persons and injecting it in
to other persons sick or well. This is
also true for animals among which
heavy losses are often due to bites of
insects. Texas fever, which causes a
loss of to the farmers of the South
and the cattle trade of at least
$50, 1000, 900 per year, is carried by a
tick.
Gin man the most important dis
ease conveyed by insects in Missouri
is malarial fever. The germ, which
belongs to the animal kingdom, is in
the blood. The mosquito in biting
draws the young parasites into it's
stomach where they undergo a stage
of development which requires about
IL days. During this time they null
tiply enormously and finally reach the
salivary gland of the mosquito. Then
the bite injects the germ into the per-
son bitten.
"The breeding of the mosquito
should be forbidden. This insect al
ways lays its eggs in stagnant water.
These hatch and produce the well
known wigglers. Where the water
cannot be drained the surface of such
pools should be covered with crude
oil, which fills the breathing appara-
tus of the larvae and kills it by suf-
location.
I'm rooms where sick persons are
kept all windows should be screened,
or mosquito netting placed over the
bed of the patient. The mosquito
does not naturally harbor the disease,
but must get the germs from sick
person.
"Those persons who are obliged to
go into mosquito infected districts
can protect themselves by the use of
oils, such as the oil citronella and oil
of penny-royal, which are repulsive to
the mosquitoes. 1t is also we'll to
take quinine, if the district is known
to be infected with malaria. The av-
erage dose should be five grains each
day, but a physician should be con-
suited as to the amount to be taken.
malaria was very common few
years ago in Southeast Missouri, but
now it has practically disappeared
where the lands have been claimed
for cultivation.
at is curious that people will do so
much more for copzhercial purpos-
es than htey will for public health. "
