DIP

Dip your cattle. No one doubts
that tick fre. animals weighs more
and sells for more than cne that is
infested with ticks. Science has re
moved all doubts as to that. If this
Parish is to become a profitable cat
tie raising section it must be made
tick free. There is no doubt about
that either. The only way to make
it tick free is to use the dipping vat.
If the dipping vat is to be a success
in a community, everybody who
owns cattle must dip. If half of the
cattle owners dip and the, other half
don't the community will not be tick
free. If the entire community will
not voluntarily dip, a compulsory
dipping law becomes essential, be-
cause if ninety-nine per cent Of the
cattle raisers voluntarily dip and the
remaining one per cent refuse to
dip, the efforts of the ninety-nine
per cent will be useless. A chain is
as strong as its weakeat link. But
dipping, whether voluntary or COM
pulsory, must be done right. It
must be done properly supervised.
The inspectors should see that the
cattle ARE handled properly when be-
ing dipped. That is what he is paid
to do. The average man who has a
cow or two, is willing to have them
dipped, but he has not the time to
attend to it himself. He hires some
Dne else to drive them to the vat.
When they get there the inspector
should take charge Of them and see
that they are handled properly. Dip
ping is new in this Parish and the
inspectors are perhaps in need Of a
little more experience.-Houma
Courier.

ABSENTEE EXEMPTION CLAIMS
AND EXAMINATIONS

| The Provost Marshal General has
issued the following:
The question now most commonly
asked at the Provost Marshal Gen
erals Office relates to whether it will
be necessary for an absentee, if
drafted to return to his home for
physical examination-and for hear
ing on his exemption claim. This
point is covered by section 29 of the
exemption regulations:
Sec. 20. Local boards may order
the physical examination of any
person and the hearing on a claim
for exemption or discharge trans
ferred to another local board. When
the order in which a person is liable
to be called for military service has
been determined and the notice that
he has been called for service mail
ed as required by section Is hereof
If it is shown to the satisfaction of
the local board having jurisdiction
of his registration card that because
Of his permanent removed or neces-
sary absence it is impracticable for
him to be physically examined by or
to file claim for exemption or dis
charge and the affidavits in support
thereof with such local board an or
der may be entered directing his
physical examination and the hear
ing of any claim for exemption or
discharge filed by or in respect of
him to be made and determined by
another local board to be designated
in such order.
However, no such applications
may be filed or no such order enter
ed until after the order which he is
liable to be called for military SER
vice is determined by the local
board having jurisdiction Of his re-
gistration card and until after the
notice that. be has been called for
service has been mailed as required
by section Is hereof.
"The local board designated in
any such order shall thereupon take
and have jurisdiction to examine
him physically, and such local board
and the distfict board having juris-
diction shall take and have jnrisdic-
tion to hear and determine claims
BY or in respect Of such person as
though his registration card were in
the possession Of such designated
board.
However, the local board so des-
ignated and the district board having
jurisdiction shall consider at all
times such. persons as one who has
been called for service by the local
board having original jurisdiction,
and unless such persons are exempt
ed or discharged he shall. be certifi-
ed to the adjutant general of the
State; Territory, or District, as the
case may be, in which he registered
rs one not exempted or discharged.
Thereupon thesx adjutant- general
shall order him to report for Mill
tary service at . special time and
place to be fixed pursuant to advices
from The Adiutant General Of the
Army and he shall be considered in
al respects - having been certified
rs not exempted OF discharged BY

and rehabilitation for men who may be
manned and crippled in the war. Their
conclusions are based on n study of
the experience OF England. France.

proach the problem on systematic

ton have found that of the whole mum

educated or trained TO new occupa-
tons If their physical defects are given
