Lieut.. Lutz Wounded

According to word received
this week from the war zone,
Lieut.. Chas. Henry Lutz was
severly wounded in an engage
ment August 1st. He was in
the first line of the trenches,
when shell exploded a short
distance from him, the fragments

we're injuries. One particle of
she'll broke his left leg, another
badly lacerated one of his wrists
and another passed entirely
through his right leg.
The Lieutenant, although badly
injured, made light of his own
troubles, as propped up in as
comfortable position possible, he
wrote a cheerful letter to the
folks at home. He admitted the
fact that he would be confined in
a hospital for four months, but
showed a marked amount of
American grit through it all.
When the news of the sad hap.
penings like this reaches US,
we begin to realize the gravity
of the situation. We read the
casualty lists with a matter Of
fact" air, but when it comes
home to us and effects those who
are our own, our American blood
begins to boil, and puts the true
war spirit where it properly be-
longs.

INTERESTING LETTER
FROM FRANCE
Captain Russell Paden Tells
Interesting Story

The following letter, printed
in the Parkersburg, w. Va News,
is full of interesting items. Capt.
Paden, who writes the letter,
is a nephew of our DR.. Paden of
this city. and seems to possess
the same unrelenting war spirit
as that displayed by the DR.. The
letter follows:
Somewhere in France
Aug. 7, 1918.
My dear Mother Well. here
| am fiat on my back in the Base
hospital at Royat, France in the
south central of France. 1t is
one of the famous watering
places of France and the hotels
are surely wonders. | am living
in one of the best with a lot Of
other officers as the hotels are all
used for hospitals except one or
two.
Well to begin with will tell
about my wounds. We were in
the big scrap and on the after
noon Of July Both | opened an
aid station just behind the ad-
vancing troops. A blooming
mustard gas shell had my ad-
dress on it and it exploded right
under me.
Have been in bed now since
July 81 in different hospitals, ar
irving here on one of our
hospital trains. Guess it will
be ten days more Of lying in bed
before | am allowed to walk.
They sure treat US fine we have
truly wonderful meals. This is
a beautiful country round here.
There are many of the sick peo.
pie of Paris here for the summer
and such stylish clothes never
saw before. We sure gave the
Boche all that was coming and
chased them all over the lot.
Rogat is near the large city of
Clermont so yon will find it on
the map south of the center of
France. We passed through the
outskirts of Paris but we could
see very little of the city. Hope
to stop off there when | get out
Of the hospital.
The hospital trains are surely
fine and one hardly realizes that
he is travelling they ride so easy.
They have negro cooks that were
on the dining cars at home ard
they sure serve some meals. The
French take their hats off to the
Americans since we pulled OF
the counter offensive and made
Fritz take to his heels. The
Boche call us the Brown Devils
and do not tarry long when they
see us coming.
A Boche plane came swooping
down ON me while was dressing
couple of wounded men on the
battle field and turned two ma
chine guns loose at me. There
was a woods about fifty yards
away and sure made for it and
got there in nothing fiat with a
perfect trail Of bullets chasing
me.
They do not respect the Red
Cross at all. They shoot and
bomb our ambulances and hos

pitals at the front right along.
l have come to the conclusion
that the only good Boche is a
dead one. II will be five or
seven weeks before | get back to
the regiment the way things
look now.
| am getting along fine and
enjoying the rest so do not worry
as my wounds are not serious.
My eyes are almost well now
and they were my greatest worry
when was gassed. Well. must
close for this time. Send my
mail to the old address and they
will forward it to me.
Love to all,

Washington. May 2S.-Herolsm and
daring of American naval officers and
men in rescuing 81 of the IS in the
crew of the American munitions
steamer Florence H., which caught
fire and broke in two in French wa
tiers April II, are described in the re-
port of Rear Admiral Wilson, COM
manding, made public by the navy de-
partment.
Lieut.. III. FL. Haislip, San MateO,

ton.
Gunner's Mate F. NJ. Upton, Denver,

for congressional medals of honor and
gold hfe-saving medals.
Six officers who commanded life
and motorboats, two surgeons and a
chaplain and IS seamen are mem
toned for commentator.
Admiral Wilson, in describing the
situation, said:
The sea to the leeward of the
wreck was covered with a mass of
boxes of smokeless powder which
were repeatedly exploding and among
this wreckage were number of sur
vivors.
THE wreckage was so thick that
small boats were useless. The heat
from the burning vessel was so in
tense that the converted yachts pres
ent, with wooden upper works, could
not safely penetrate the wreckage.
Under these conditions Lieutenant
Haislip took his vessel at high speed
into the midst of the wreckage, at
considerable risk of decorating the
depth charges carried ON his vessel,
and made lanes through which the
small boats towed by his and other
vessels could reach the survivors.
THE dash. Initiative and courage
shown are in accord with the best
traditions of our service, and it is rec
commended that he be commended by
the navy department"

PREVENT BREEDING OF FLIES
Essential That carcasses of Dead
Animals Be Burned or Buried
Method of Control.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
The black blowf1y, the bluebottle
breeders. They attack wounds on liv-
ing animals mainly as result of the
presence of the flies in abnormally
large numbers. To prevent the breed
ing of the black blowfiy it is essential
that carcasses be burned or buried,
even during the winter months. Thus
the proper disposal of carcasses be-
comes of much Importance all the
year. Where these flies become a
nuisance by communicating food prod
ucts or by entering houses, which is
usual in towns or cities, attention
must be given to the proper disposal
of garbage, as they will breed in the
meat scraps in garbage cans or on
dumps as well as in carcasses.
To destroy maggots in sores the
same method as for the screw
worm is to be followed. 1t is not
always possible to prevent maggot in
Hesitation following dehorning, but If
periods of cool weather in winter are
chosen for this operation usually no
trouble follows. To prevent maggots
from gaining entrance to wounds the
application of pine tar is advised. Fol-
lowing dehorning, some advise cover
ing the wounds with pieces Of
cloth dipped in pine tar. Many of
these will remain in place several
days.
The tails of lambs are sometimes
infested by maggots following dock
ing. This can be largely prevented
by removing the tails with moderately
heated pincers. The docking of lambs
also tends to avoid soiling of the
wool during succeeding months, and
this helps to prevent infestation OF
the rump by maggots. Other impor-
tant steps in preventing wool-maggot
injury are the following: (1) Breed
hOrnless sheep and thus avoid injury
from horns and consequent infestation
around them; (2) lamb as early in
the spring as pOsSible-considering
other conditions; (3) shear either be
fore lambing or as soon after as pos
sible, and thus avoid the infestations
which almost invariably follow in
heavy-wool sheep when warm, humid
weather comes on.

struction of maggots in wool, but near
Gus objections, so that dependence
must be placed almost entirely upon
preventive measures. If sheep be-
come infested, however, the wool
should be clipped from about the por-
tions containing the maggots. 1t is
necessary to begin the clipping out
side the infested area, so as to avoid
driving the maggots back into the I'M
soiled wool and thus extending the
trouble. When the maggOts have been
concentrated in certain spot by clip
ping around them. the application OF
stick dip in concentrated form or the
use of chlorofOrm, especially if the
infested area is covered Immediately
with a piece of oilcloth, will destroy
the maggots, and the entire mass then
can be clipped off. Mixtures of turp-
entine and tar have been tried in
Australia for the destruction of wool
maggots and the prevention of subse-
quent infestation, with a fair degree
of success. 1t is important that some
thing be applied to deodorize the in
tested parts and hasten healing.
Some sheepmen use air-slaked lime
busted lightly over the parts to dry
up the discharge and reduce the Odor.
This undoubtedly is accomplished to
some extent, but there is some danger
of forming crusts and having maggots
fnfest the sore places or wounds be-
meath these.
On large sheep ranges, when the
iambing is done during seasons which
are favorable for infestations, it is
best TO have the f1ocks divided into
rather small units and carefully
watched, so that any fly-blown sheep
NAV receive immediate attention.
To protect lambs and other sheep
during the summer months from be-
ing blown by bluebottle flies an effort
should be made to prevent diarrhea,
and when sheep get dirty they should
be promptly trimmed up. Apply to
the rump, and TO the parts fouled by
diarrhea. grease containing a few
drops of crude carbOlic acid or tar
oil The grease will hold the tarry
odor in suspense and act as a fly re-
pellent.

More than 100000 employees of the

employees is examined carefully.
Through economies by the common
use of wagons, trucks, distributing sta
