MARION HARLAND'S CORNER
Getting Rid of Bedbugs

Would you please tell me how TO get rid of
bedbugs in house and bed? Please give me any
full OF them. / shall greatly appreciate and
thank you for the same. EDNA B.
To get rid OF red rovers' simply apply
a good thick coat Of varnish to all lurking
places. or get clean oil can, fill 1t with
gasoline and inject into all cracks and cram
nies where they can possibly hide. Shut the
room up for some hours to give the gasoline
a fair chance to do it's work. Care must be
taken to have the rooms thoroughly aired
before artificial light goes near one. If the
inf cton be very severe. try both of these
methods and repeat weekly the gasoline in
lection for month. First of all, l would
enjoin the proprety-nay the necessity
OF sweeping, busting and examining care
fully every nook and crevice of the rooms
before painting. vanishing and fumigating.
Then burn every hair and thread of the
sweepings Do this again after airing the
rooms next day or week.
Yet another way of dispensing the
wretches is TO dissolve an ounce OF corrosive
sublmate in a gallon of wood alcohol and
spray furniture. floors and cornices-in fact,
every part of the room-with the mixture.
Close the rooms for two days after the ap-
pllcation. Some object that the volatile
poison remains In the atmosphere after the
alcohol evaporates and is inhaled by the
occupants OF the bed and rooms.
The objection may be reduced TO a neg
lgible quantity by the faithful sweeping,
busting and burning following the process.
After all has been done TO mitigate the
nuisance, the fact remains that eternal
vigilance Is the price of immunity from
these and other household pests.
