DISPOSE OF PESTS
THAT EAT UP PROFIT
Everyone With Sound Sense
Knows That 1t Doesn't Pay
to Feed Ticks and Lice.

(By D. A. SPENCER, Department of
Animal Husbandry, Oklahoma A. e. M.
College, Stillwater)
Does it pay to dip sheep? This
question is asked during the spring by
many beginners in sheep husbandry.
Perhaps an answer may be suggested
by the following question. Does it pay
to feed ticks and lice? Everyone with
sound sense knows that it does not.
If the flock owner is anxious to rea-
lie all possible profit from his flock he
should attempt to dispose of pests that
eat up the profit.
The flock may appear to have no
ticks, but few stray ones may be
lurking here and there, ready to bring
forth an army of ticks if conditions re-
main favorable. This is often the case
and the final result is usually about as
bad as if you could see ticks when the
sheep are sheared.
If the ticks are thick it may be wise
to dip as soon as the sheep are shorn.
Otherwise wait three or four weeks
after shearing so that there may be
sufficient growth of fleece to hold
some of the dip. Dip again in about
ten days in order to kill the young
ticks that may have been in the egg
stage at the time of the first dipping
Any of the coal tar dips, such as kresO,
zenoleum, ETC., used according to di-
rections, will give very satisfactory re-
suits

SELF-FEEDERS GOOD
FOR ALL LIVE STOCK
Interesting Test Being Made With
Dairy Cow at California
University Farm.

If the self-feeder for pigs, because 1t
lets them follow naturally bodily de-
mands of eating just what food their
system required, is such a great sue
cess, the self-feeder might prove equal
ly good for other kinds Of stock also.
At the California university farm, just
as a feeler, not as an experiment that
would certainly prove anything, dairy
cow has been fed since lactation with
a. self-feeder. In one place is alfalfa
hay which she can get to at all times,
another dried beet pulp mixed with
rolled barley, which it is figured will
give with alfalfa hay an approximately
balanced ration. One trouble has been
that she has been too interested in the
barley to take enough interest in the
other feeds, and that is expensive, but
by increasing the proportion of beet
pulp she has been made to show better
judgment
The test may prove nothing for prac-
teal purposes on account Of expense
of grain and concentrates. However,
one noticeable fact is that her bodily
weight remains without any change.
Indicating that the system is physical
success, also the effect on milk flow is
excellent.

inch hem about the bottom. A wide
land of beadwork heads the hem and
a similar band divides the skirt half
way of it's length. A narrower design
is worked about the skirt at the hip
line and midway between the two
wide bands. The same designs appear
In short bands on the bodice.
Long sleeves of tulle are finished
with cuffs of satin, and decoration
of several parallel rows of beads
reaches from shoulder to cuff. The
deep cuffs are adorned with a single
row of the same embroidery. The
round neck makes opportunity for
wide standing band of tulle. There is
a soft girdle of satin ribbon. Narrow
er satin ribbon hangs in loops and
ends at three places at each side OF
the skirt. Black silk stockings and
patent. leather slippers complete the
toilet.

threads, and actual stitching works
out the design. These decorative fea-
lures of the new season may be the
inspiration of bead work, which ap-
pears along with them, but is not so
popular. 1t is more tedious to do
and is not superior to the floss in
appearance, and it is not so light in
weight. But the same designs may
be wrought in either beads or floss.

cording to directions, can De applied
with a spray pump or sprinkling can,
or else rubbed ON every part of the
hog by means of a brush or a swab
of cotton waste. Care should be taken
not to apply the dip stronger than
directed.
Another method of controlling lice
is to tie gunny sacks or similar coarse
cloths around a post and saturate the
sacks frequently with crude oil. The
sacks should be tied at a proper height
so that the hogs may rub against
them.
Change Pastures Frequently.
Swine can be raised when they are
confined in limited quarters if the
quarters are kept clean, but they will
do much better and stay in better
health if they have plenty of pasture.
Divide the pasture into convenient
areas, so that the hogs can be shifted
from one pasture to another. This not
only provides fresh pasture, but af-
fords an opportunity to disinfect the
pastures by blowing and reseeding or
exposing to the sun and weather.
Intestinal worms, which are rather
common in swine, are contracted from
feed, water. and ground which have
been contaminated by the droppings
from infected hogs. Frequent change
of pasture is one of the best means of
reducing worm infestation to a mini
mum. Hogs, however, should not be
allowed to run at large on open range,
as this favors the spread of hog
cholera.

Needlework in which long stitches

In afternoon and evening gowns. 1t
is in reality a sort of embroidery
