Effective Home Made Powder
And Ways of Keeping Fowls
Free From Mites and Lice

Very good poultry lice powder
may be made at little cost by mixing
fine road dust, two quarts, and to-
bacc0 dust. one pint. In place Of
road dust. anthracite coal ashes well
sifted may be used, and Persian in
sect powder or flowers Of sulphur
may be substituted for the tobacco
dust The important point is that
all the ingredients should be in the
form Of a very fine dust.
A powder much recommended is
made by mixing three parts gasoline
and one part crude carbolic acid GO

this mixture slowly. while stirring.
enough plaster IL takes about four
quarts of plaster OF paris to one
quart Of the liquid. When enough
plaster is added the mixture should
form a dry, brOwnish powder Those
who make this powder should re-
member that gasoline is very in

strength may burn the hands. face,
or eyes il IL comes in contact with
them.
Lice powders are best applied by
putting them into a tin can having
a perforated top like a pepper box,
but with larger holes. A newspa-
per is spread on the floor TO catch
the surplus powder, the fowl is held
by the legs, head downward. so that
the feathers will loosen up and fall
away from the body. and then the
powder is busted thoroughly through
the feathers, especially under the
tail and wings and about the neck
and head. BY rubbing the feathers
slightly With the. hand the powder
will penetrate and form a coating
over the skin. which is destructive
to both lice and mites.
IL is possible and practicable to
keep a flock Of poultry absolutely
free from lice and mites. and this
should be the aim of everyone who
is endeavOring 10 establish a sue
cessful poultry industry.

WILL COMBAT ONION

Department of Agriculture TO
Assign Specialists 10 Work
i'm Districts At.

To combat neck-rot-a destruc-
tive storage rot of onions-in var
ious localities of the United States.
the United states department of ag-
riculture. next season is TO assist
grow ers in testing a method of con-
trolling the disease with the hope
OF putting the method on d prac-
ticable basis for commercial use.
of the department will
be assigned 10 the districts affected
to advise farmers and to help in
the installation and equipment of
necessary structures.
The districts known to be infect
ed include the principal onion
growing centers in Massachusetts.
Connecticut, Ohio, Indiana. Della
ware. Wisconsin and Oregon. The
disease occurs in other states also.
Losses of from 25 per cent to 70
per cent in white onion sets have
been recorded in the vicinity Of Chi
cagO and in northern Indiana. Red
and yellow onions are not attacked
as seriously as the white varieties.
Artificial Drying Method.
The disease known as neck-rot is
caused by a fungus. The parasite
enters the wounded necks of the
bulbs at harvest time and grad
ually rots the scales until they be-
come dried up and worthless. OF
the control measures that have been
tried. artificial drying of the onion
sets in crates just after harvest has
given the best results. The object
OF this method is TO cure the neckS
as soon as possible. and thus check
the fungus before it enters the flesh
scales. In various lots treated re-
Gently. the rot was reduced from
IA TO 1 per cent, from A TO 2 pei
sent, from SO 10 per cent, and
from 90 TO 10 per cent.

alone 200 tons are received daily Of
which 125 tons are delivered by mo-
tor to branch warehouses at other
cities and points along the front
