Herald readers got pretty SHARP
reminder of this in the letter which
DR.. Lowell Frost of California, pub.
lished in these columns last week. II
is only fair to say, however, that the
desire of the Governor for labor to be
employed in harvest, rather than on
the roads, has put back considerable
attention in spots badly, and the Otter
Creek valley will not hold its valuable
summer trade unless they are put in
shape and kept so.
Good roads, good hotels and fine
scenery make a combination that will
attract summer tourists every time.
The scenery is at It's best this year.
The hotels are just as good as ever.
1t seems to be up to the highway de-
partment to do its part and do its best
with these indispensable travel routes
In the Otter Creek valley.
Incidentally, people on this side Of
the state read with a good deal of
mystifcation Of the extensive and ex-
pensive expenditures to be made with
federal road money on the Burlington
Montpelier route through Williston,
Duxbury and Middlesex. This road
has had an enormous amount Of mon
ey spent on ii in the past five years,
grade separation, cutoffs and grade
reduction having consumed huge sums
OF state money.
Isn't il about time that a little Of
this surplus came into Addison and
Rutland counties?
We say surplus, because the high
way department is turning back funds
into the state treasury every bienni-

Labor is scarce, yes. Materials are
high, yes. The hay demands all the
labor farmers can get, yes. At the
same time, the system which concen-
trates funds and energy on certain
costly improvements, leaving the nee
essary upkeep to the chances Of casu-

satisfactory.

means of preserving it in large guam
titles, is highly Endorsed by the de-
partment's experts. On account Of the
great development Of canning indus
tries, this healthful method Of food
preservation has been lost sight of in
recent years in the individual homes,
but it now offers a safe and sane
method of caring for the perishable
products coming on to the market in
quantities too great for immediate
consumption.
Advantages of Method
The advantages of this method of
food conservation, by use of salt brine,
say the departments officials, are that
it is simple, requires little labor, prac-
tically no outlay of capital, and takes
care of food in larger quantities.
The method also lends variety to the
home menu. The ferment which de-
velops in the food is thought by some
to have beneficial effect on the
health. 1t is the same acid that de-
velops in sour milk, which has had
such a wide vogue as healthful bev-
erage. Uncle Sam has been quick to
appreciate the value of fermented food
in the diet of soldiers, and has ordered
large quantities of cucumber pickles,
etc. Not only cabbage,
and bects can be very sue
preserved at home by this
process, but string beans, bees tops,
turnip tops, and other food materials
which would otherwise go to waste.
Fermentation of vegetables is sue
cessful either in Northern or Southern
States. Full information will be sent
by the department to anyone wishing
full details regarding the method
which was fully described in News

might hand them owe In accordance
with the regulations governing lost

In vain did the "hnder" protest that
it was only a conjuring trick. The

avoid Il compulsory visit to the police
station, he had to give up the coins.

balanced ration and the pigs should
be fed twice n day just as much Of
this mixture as they will clean up well.
The younger the pigs the more rich

During the last few weeks Of the fat
tening period they will do better and
put more fat on with a greater proper
ton Of corr In the ration. If you have

ROTATE TO ERADICATE PESTS
Most Available and Economical Plan
In Control Of Intestinal Worms
and Fever Tick.

(By G.. M. BENTLEY, Associate Ento.
moiog1st, Tennessee Agricultural Elk
pertinent Station)
In sections affected with contagious
diseases Of live stock pasture rotation
Is essential. In the control of stomach
and intestinal worms in sheen. hogs
ana cattle, intelligent rotation covering
definite periods, based upon longevity
ana life history of the pests, Is now
recognized as the most available and
economical plan.
Inc fever cattle tick may be perma,
nently eradicated by positive rotation.
1t has been found that If cattle and
horses are removed from a pasture
during the summer months 1t becomes
free from ticks. During the winter II
infested cattle are run upon o cornfield
or other cultivated field upon which no
animals have been during the summer
all the ticks will drop off, after which
the animals may be placed upon the
pasture that was freed of ticks dur
ing the previous summer. The Ten
nessee experiment station has pre-
pared a bulletin upon the eradication
or the tick by pasture rotation meth
obs which may be had on application.

PARASITES IN SWINE
Mixture by Expert
at Oklahoma College.
Many Breeders Use Straight Arsenic,
Form Known as Arsenous Acid Be-
Ing Most Commonly Employed
-Turpentine Is Good.

by w. p. SHULER. Department of
Veterinary Medicine. Oklahoma A. and
M, College, Stillwater.)
Treatment of hogs for the kidney
worm is usually of little or no avail.
According to different reports, seven
out of ten hogs slaughtered will be In
tested either in the region of the kid
neys, lungs, the intestinal tract or cir
c%ulatory system. For intestinal para
sites a mixture like the following will
give good results:
Powdered nux vomica l part, pow
dered calcium sulphO-carbolate ] part.
powdered black anthony one-half part,
powdered charcoal 2 parts, common
salt 2 parts, gentian l part, oil meal 2
parts.
Many cases of infestation by para
sites is charged up to hog cholera. Too
little attention Is paid to parasitic
troubles. As to the arsenic treatment
for kidney worms. there Is much dis
pute about its efficiency. Many breed
ers use the straight arsenic, the form
known as arsenous acid being most
commonly employed. 1t is given in 10
to 2O-grain doses. A teaspoonful OF
arsenic would be a sufficient dose for a
half dozen average-siZed hogs. Care
should be exercised In it's use, and It
ought to be stirred into slop, or If
mixed with mashes care should be
taken that the mixture Is quite COM
plete. This treatment Is continued for
eight or ten days at a time. Some
seem to think that where arsenic is
beneficial, the parasites are not To-
Gated in and around the kidneys, but
rather on account of the purging and
vomiting produced by large-sized doses
Of arsenic, the parasites are located In
the stomach and intestines, or the bile
ducts Of the liver. Excessive purging
and vomiting would have a tendency TO
eliminate them. Turpentine is also
thought to have a beneficial action. A
te~aspoonful Of oil Of %turpentine for
each hog twice or three times daily for
a period Of eight or ten days should be
given. The best method. however, of
handling conditions of this sort Is 10
keep the animals away from infected
feed and pens. If they feed on acorns,
keep plenty of copperas and charcoal,
especially charcoal, convenient for
them to eat. The formula for para
sites in general has given very good re
suits.

The tender shoots forced from the
large corms may be prepared like as

that form.
Culture and Handling Of Dasheens.
The daSheen is grown from whole
tubers weighing n few ounces. They
require n froStless season of ut least
seven months with plenty of moisture.
A moist but w~ell-dralned. rich, sandy
loan has been found to be n satisfac-
tory soil for dasheen culture. A large
proportion of either clay or muck in
the soil produces Strong-ilavored, tough
corms which are often unfit for table
use. Large crops are produced under
such conditions, however, and make ex-
cellent stock feed.
The crop is planted In February in
southern Florida and as late as the
early part of Apr. in South Carolina.
The plants are spaced about 3h by 3a
feet. Dasheens may be dug for home
use by the middle of September and
the main crop can be harvested at any
time after the last of October. The
clumps of tubers are left on the sur
face of the ground for several days to
dry. The tops and small roots are
then broken off and the dasheens
placed in storage.
The dasheen is a good shipper and Is
handled by the carriers at the same
freight rates as potatoes. The vege-
table has already found Its way into Il
number of northern markets.

Matches Illuminated Town.

In a Midland town a number Of
persons were fined for striking
matches in the streets on the
night of an air raid. The offense
may appear to be a trivial one on the
face of it, but it is really not so, says
a writer in Flight. In a recent series
of visibility tests with certain kinds of
light 1t was noted that on a dark night
the light of an ordinary match was
easily visible at a distance of a mile.
Hostile aircraft do not, as a rule, fly
at as low an altitude as a mile, and on
the basis Of the test just noted the
striking Of a single match would be
without import. But, according to
the evidence Of a police superin-
tendent, although the street lamps
were all extinguished during the raid,
there was almost as much light as
though they had been lit, owing to peo-
pie striking matches to light pipes and
cigarettes.
