FIGHTING COMMON RED MITE
Insect Most Active During Warm
Weather-Found Around Nests,
Roosts and Dropping Board.

The common red mite which is most
active during the warm weather is
commonly found about the roosts and
dropping boards, also about the nests,
and many times in brooders and coops
for the hen and her chicks. The mite
Is easily held in check If proper meth
DDS Of control r used. While kero-
sene will quickly kill them it evapo-
rates In n few days.
And Of the coal oil tar mixtures are
more effective. Carbolenium is recon-
mended highly by the Connecticut sta
ton. Containing a coal-tar product and
carbOllc acid 1t acts as a wood stain
and remains effective for a long period
Of time, being even more effective than
pure carbOllc acid. One application a
year is generally sufficient, but 1t must
be used with discretion.
An excess amount either on the
roosts or on the adjoining boards may
result In eye trouble to the hens OF
chickens. To avoid this 1t is best to
make the application when changing
the chicks from one house to another
allowing at least two days for the
mixture to dry before using the house
If this cannot be done dilute 1t with
kerosene and apply lightly with &
brush.
If roosts are allowed to dry outside
Of the poultry house there is less dan
ger Of injury to the fowls. The roost'
should be removed and painted, the
roOsting boards thoroughly cleaned
then painted, being sure to use tn,
carbolenlum very literally in tn,
cracks between the boards. In badl!
Infested houses or where mites show
signs Of returning it may be neces
sary to make a second application.

(which troubles me a good deal.
You know the critical condition of af-
fairs at Pulza. I have received pri-
vate word that the native c|ommandant
there is about to be superseded by his
former predecessor, MaceO. That

"Why?" l asked, at once interested.
because Maceo is a rejected sutton
of Miss Wentworth, and it was
through Mr.. Wentworth that he was
relieved of his official duties. Under
the old regime that would mean little.
With the present fractional lines mar

revengeful Maceo the power of a ty-
rant, and he will exert 1t.
