SENDS VIVID PEN PICTURE
OF SUFFERINGS IN FRANCE
Well Known Woman Writes of Hid
eous Conditions in Wake of
German Retreat.

A vivid pen picture of suffering in
French villages in the wake Of the Ger
man retreat Is contained in a letter re-
ceived in Washington from a well known
woman engaged in hospital work in
France.
Here in Paris the stations at times re-
call to our minds the fearful exodus Of the
first months Of the war" she writes, land
resting places for these poor unfortunates.
ut IS probable that the entire region
Of the German retreat will be evacuated
Of the civil population. owing to insani-
tary conditions and also because it would
be difficult to feed them under present
conditions"

Used in Making Munitions.

One Of the largest dealers in builders
materials. in reply to a question as to
the scarcity of the material. said that
he had not as much as a pound of un-
slaked lime in his place. and that he
did not know when he would have any
He said the extensive use of unslaked
lime in munitions making was respon-
sible in part for the shortage, lack OF
cars for transportation being another
cause.
Just how such lime figures in the
manufacture OF munitions the dealer did
not know, saying that he was told by
the manufacturers of the lime, in Ohio
that such was the case.
In many instances dealers have fur
nished hydrated lime instead of the
unslaked kind. and poultrymen who
have tried to make whitewash from 1t
naturally have failed. OF course a sort
of whitewash can be made from this
kind Of lime, but as 1t is already slaked
the whftewash IL not much good, as 1t
peels, flakes or brushes OF within a
short time.

Say Munitions Makers Demands and
Car Shortage Responsible
for Condition.

Spring and early summer advice to all
poultrymen always includes the ad-
monition to whitewash poultry houses,
inside and out. This summer. however,
the poultrymen ara having q hard time
to follow this advice. for the reason
that unslaked lime Is about as scarce
as hens teeth, and everybody knows
how scarce they are.
Numerous requests have como to the
poultry editor of The Sunday Star for
information as to where unslaked or
lump lime could be obtained. The usual
reply has been that the material might
be found at any store or establishment
handling general builders supplies.
The information has not been exact,
however. as it seems that at the present
time there Is very little unslaked lime
in Washington.

Hydrated Lime Wash.

1t IS stated that migrated lime can
be used satisfactorily in whitewash for
poultry houses If considerable quantf-
ties Of white glue in powdered form are
used to give the wash sticking quail
ties. formula that Is said to give
satisfaction has been sent to the poul-
try editor by poultryman, who says he
has used 1t for several years. The for
mula Is that used by the government
In making the whitewash used at ex-
pertinent stations, etc. with the excep-
as called for by the regular formula.
three pounds are used. The glue Is dis
solved in hot water over a slow FIRE
and the mixture is added to the wash.
Good Cement Paint.
II satisfactory whitewash cannot be
made for use in and around the poultry
found in cement paint. This is made by
mixing sifted Portland cement with
boiled linseed oil until the mixture is of
the consistency of good paint. This may
be colored by adding burnt umber or
some similar dry color. 1t cannot, how
ever, be used as a disinfectant, because
the addition of crude carbolic acid or
other insecticide to the mixture will
ruin It.
Such a cement paint. however, will
give a hard and durable coating to
outside or inside wood. and II two coats
are applied insects will be sealed up in
such manner as to make 1T impossible
for them to emerge to attack fowls.
This paint Is said to be as durable as
any other. though naturally 1t is not
so ornamental when used outside.
Kerosene and Carbolic Acid.
! In the absence of a satisfactory In
secticfde whitewash poultry men may
fall back on mixture of kerosene and
crude carbolic acid with every assur-
ance that this mixture will put out of
business every mite, louise or other in
sect, as we'll as their eggs, with which
1t comes in contact.
The mixture is made by adding about
as much crude carbolic acid as would
fill an ordinary teacup to half a gallon
of kerosene. Mix well and apply with a
brush around the ends of roosts, in
cracks and crevices, on the surface of
the roosts. inside nest boxes and every
lurking place where insect pests may
hide. A single application. II made
thorough enough, often rids a poultry
house of the pests and no further trou-
BILE is found with them during the en-
tire summer. 1t is better, however to
go over the interior of the house q
second time, about ten days or two
weeks after the first treatment. and in
this manner catch any insects that may
have Matched from eggs not destroyed
by the first application.
The coal oil and carbolic acid mixture
Is very thin, and little Of it goes a
long way. Half gallon ought to be
sufficient to go over the entire interior
of a poultry house twenty feet long by
twelve feet deep. nest boxes and all
OF course, it is necessary to be careful
that no pipes. cigars or cigarettes are
lighted in a house newly treated with
this mixture. which is highly inf1am-
mable.
