TICK ERADICATION
MEANS M0RE.LEATHER
Cattle Hides Are Reduced in Value
fkonn 20 to SO Per Cent.

Tick eradication will mean the pro
duction of more leather and better
leather IN Louisiana and other South
ern States. Leather is one Of the
greatest needs Of the Government in
the prosecution Of the war.
1t has been stated on good author.
ity that many of the army horses az
the various camps cannot be used for
want OF the requisite number Of sad
dies, brides, etc. One of the chief
factors in this leather shortage is the
cattle tick, because Of the damage II
does to hides, rendering great part
OF them unfit for use in the manufac-
ture OF leather goods of various kinds.
This is caused by the irritation and
unevenness in the hide produced by
the bites OF the cattle ticks. Accord
ing to Federal authorities, 42-lb,
Southern hide with tick markings on
1t ts reduced in value 3 cents per
pound, or s1.26 per hide; and the
writer heard a United States senator,
who is prominent tanner in the
East, make the statement that he had
to make a cut on Southern hides of
from 20 to so per cent on account of
the damage done to them by cattle
ticks. This statement may be found
in the Congressional Record for 1913.
The common cattle tick, therefore,
not only prevents an increase in our
beef and milk supply, but is serious
hindrance to our production of leather
for the manufacture of leather goods
for our army which are so much In
demand at the present time.
1t MAY be readily seen what an i'm
portant war measure tick eradication
is, and should be pushed to success
full conclusion at the very earliest pos
sible moment. There afe some of our
people who do not as yet seem to
realize the vital necessity of this
work in the parishes: ard yet it may
play very important spart in the |
winning OF the war. Louisiana should |
certainly do everything possible to be
tick-free by the end Of 1915 1t is |
extremely urgent.-W. H. Dalrymple, |

WOMEN TAKING POSTS Of MEN
 ABOARD SHIPS

SEATTLE.-To join their sisters who are bearing man-sized burdens due to war conditions, come now the woman cook, messwoman and mess girl aboard an ocean steamship. They swell the ranks which already include women mail carriers, women elevator operators and women in railway yards and factories.
 Capt. Harry W. Crosby, Seattle shipping, is responsible for the latest innovations which have aroused great interest on the waterfront where manpower has been depleted by the war, in the Alaska and Cali fornia trades.
 Through the United States ship ping commisst toner, have signed on three women as members of the crew of the steamship H. B. Love joy and they are doing fine work, ' Captain Crosby declared, after few days trial of the new help.
 "The women prepare three meals a day and night lunch when the vessel is loading in port They are now on their second voyage and have made good. The men say the food is better cooked and the serv. ice is improved since the women took charge of the galley.
 "They are paid the union scale with overtime for extra work at night while the vessel is loading"
 Mrs. A. E. Ferguson is cook o1 the Lovejoy, and the messmaid anc messgirl are Miss Anna Larsen anc Blanche Yelling. I coined the words messmaid and messgirl and have sug gested that they be used by the United States shipping commissioner in signing women as members ot crews, for I believe more vessels will be using them before the wal is over"

ROAD BUILDERS GIVE CASH FOR
 HOSPITAL BEDS

ANCHORAGE.-For funds to con- tinue the endowment of beds in the American Military Hospital at Neu- lilly, France, campaign is in pro- gress among employees of the Alas kan Engineering commission. Money will be collected at Nenana, Fair banks, Seward and Anchorage.
 In the hospital at Neuilly there is room that last year was en- dowed with sixteen beds by em- ployees of the Department of the Interior. Ten of these sixteen beds are accredited to Alaska, namely, two to Nenana, one to Fairbanks. one to Seward and six to the An chorage division of the Government railroad. Of the six accredited to the Anchorage division, three are named for Anchorage and one each for Turnagain Arm, Matanuska and Talkeetna.
 The task of maintaining the beds in the Interior Department Room in the Neuilly hospital rests on the Interior Department War Work Association, which is an auxiliary of the American Red Cross and of which Mrs. Franklin K. Lane, wife of the secretary of the interior, is president. Of the Anchorage branch of the association, Mrs. William c. Edes, wife of the chairman of the Alaskan Engineering commission, is the head.
 The sum of $500 maintains one bed for one year. To raise the 1 S3,600 needed for the maintenance i for another year of the six beds that were established last year by employees of the Anchorage division i of the Government railroad, every one of the 1,5S0 persons on the division payroll will have to donate at least S2, and then some. If the ordinary employees contribute $2 : each, or in other words a total of S3, ,160, the balance of $40 re- quired to make up the necessary $3,600 will be subscribed by the officials of the Commission.

Ante-bellum Dixie and its host Of
charming "reminiscences was presented in
a delightful manner last Friday evening,
when the boys Of the 316th, 317th and
S18th Machine Gun Battalions were pri-
viieged to hear Mrs. Mary Carroll at
Building rs.
Mrs Carroll was born and raised on
large plantation some little distance from
the city of Augusta, and her address
therefore took on added charm from the
fact that all her Illustrations were taken
from actual experience, and the vivid
manner in which she carried her hearers
back to the plantation Of her youth was
most enjoyable.
With rare skill she described the large
cotton fields, the barns. the mast4-'s
house where the owner of the planta-
ton lived but best of all was her de-
scription of the colored section, where
the slaves lived, and their quaint old
customs and mode Of living; how they
worked the fields all day long, singing,
how on Saturday night each one went up
to the big house and received his aliot-
ment Of meal, sugar and salt for the
coming week. She described the pecu-
liar holiday customs Of the slaves, and
ina pleaing way. sang the old darky
melodies and illustrated the old South
ern dances.
The latter part Of Mrs. CAROLS lecture
was devoted to amusing Incidents that
happened among the slaves ana she was

forced to stop several times, so insist
ent was the applause Of her hearers. Her
imitation Of the old darby preacher re-
citing the story Of Adam and Eve was
particularly humorous. and the fellows
learned possibly for the first time just
how we received our Adams apple 1t
seems that when the Lord placed Adam
and Eve in the garden. he gave them
carte blanche to eat all the fruit they
wanted but after second thought he re-
stricted one little red apple away up on
top Of the tree. Woman like Eve tor
mented Adam, until one day in fit Of
desperation he "elumb" the tree and gave
Eve the apple, but steadfastiy refused
to eat any himself. This didn't suit
Eve at all, and in order TO induce Adam
to psrtake Of the apple she resorted to
a woman's impregnabIe defense, tears.
Like all Of his descendants Adam sue
cumbed to the tears and was just in the
act Of swallowing his share when the
Lord appeared and proceeded to choke
Adam. This caused the apple to stick
in his throat and a lump protruded,
which we now know as Adams apple.
Aside from her ability to narrate the
old recollections, Mrs. Carroll has rare
personality and her lecture was most
heartily enjoyed from beginning TO end.
For the benefit of those who viii never
have the privilege Of hearing Mrs. Car
roll. IL would seem tine logical thing TO en-
large the lecture and give it permanency
