PREVENT SPREAD OF
vIRULENT DISEASES
Dead Animals Should Be Buried
Deep or Burned.
Left on Surface Of Ground Their odor
Soon Invites Scavenoers to Con-
aregate and to Bring infec-
tious Material.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture.)
The carcasses of animals which have
succumbed to infectious diseases like
anthrax, hog cholera, blackleg. tuber-
culosis. etc., are charged with myr-
lads Of virulent disease germs, and
just as long as they remain where
scavengers can reach them and por-
lions of them can be carried away
promiscuously, they are dangerous
menace over large territory t. all
animals which are liable to be at
tackled by disease germs. Even car
casses of animals which have died
from other causes than infectious dis
eases, unless they are disposed of In
a proper way, are a source of dan
ger. Left on the surface of the
ground, their odor soon invites scav-
engers to congregate and to bring with
them the infectious material with
which they may have become contain
mated by eating carrion elsewhere.
Dead animals on the farm should be
buried deep enough to prevent them
from being dug up again, or they
should be burned. To burn large car
casses like those of dead horses and
cattle is difficult and laborious and re-
quires a large quantity of fuel. In
most instances 1t Is more economical
to bury them. All animals which have
died from infectious diseases and are
buried should be covered with heavy
layer of lime before the graves are
closed.
In the winter. when the ground is
frozen. 1t Is more difficult to dig graves
than at other seasons of the year. but
1t Is just In cold weather that disease
germs remain alive and virulent long
est in dead organic matter and that
scavengers travel the longest dis
tances, have the best appetites, and
are most likely to carry disease germs
on and In their bodies. The extra
trouble Of digging graves in the win
ter is easily Offset by the greater dan
ger It counteracts. Low temperature
prevents the multiplication of disease
germs, but many kinds of disease
germs are not killed or deprived Of
their perniclous possibilities by ex-
posture to 4 lower temperature than
the lowest reached during an icy
arctic winter.
Everywhere farmers not only should
attend to the proper and safe disposal
Of the bodies Of their own animals
which unfortunately die, but they
should insist on the prope; disposal Of
the bodies Of oil animals which die
anywhere in the regions In which
their farms are located.

prepared by the United States Depart

From the time the earliest seed is
put into the ground to the harvesting
Of the last crop. every home vegetable
garden may be expected to suffer
from the attacks of the army of in
sects pests which annually creep from
their winter quarters, hungry from
their long fast, to fatten on the care
fully nurtured seedlings riddle the
grown plants, and multiply to count
less thousands during the days Of mid
summer. The careful and far-sighted
gardener may most readily demon
strate his skill through the adoption
and correct application Of the rem
edies best designed to control this
horde.
Colorado Potato Beetle.
Wherever a small plot Of potatoes
Is grown. the Colorado potato beetle
Is likely TO be found. The mature or
''hardshell" beetles which have spent
the winter safely buried in the ground,
begin to come out about the time
when the plants are a few inches
high. First they hungrily devour q
part Of the young and tender foliage
after which they begin to deposit, on
the undersides Of the leaves, their
clusters of orange-colored eggs, OF
which a thousand or more may be
laid by a single female. Effective work
may be done at this time by hand
picking the beetles from the plants
into a can of water, with a little kero.
Gene over the surface. The eggs may
be crushed between the thumb and
finger. --r---
Care at this stage will prevent the
appearance of the fat, shiny red
larvae or "slugs," which are much
more destructive than the beetles, fire.

eral inches. When In the course of q
few days they again emerge, they
have taken the form Of parent beetles.
Means Of Control
The Colorado potato beetle Is one
of the pests most easily controlled. II
feeds readily on poisoned foliage, and
the well-known treatments Of spray
Ing or busting with arsenate Of lead
or paris green should be familiar to
every grower. The spray mixture may
be prepared In small quantities by
mixing two-thirds Of an ounce, or ten
level teaspoonfuls Of powdered ar
senate Of lead with a gallon Of water
This should be applied with a spray
er capable Of throwing fine, misty
spray. A good atomizer will do ef-
fective work on a small scale, at n
cost of dollar or less. The upper
surfaces Of the leaves should be well
covered by the spray. A simple meth
cd Of busting is to mix thoroughly the
same quantity Of powdered arsenate
of lead or heapIng tablespoonful of
paris green with a quart Of air-slaked
lime or lime plaster. Dust this over
the plants by shaking through a
cheesecloth bag. ~

of vegetables, while field mice gain
a living from stealing seed and root
crops. .~-.,>x -,-..--
These pests can be destroyed by
trapping on small areas where the in
festation is not extensive and where 1t
is undesirable to put out poison.
Twelve to 20 traps an acre may be
used. The tunnels Of the pine mouse
should be excavated sufficiently to
admit the trap on a level with the bot
tom, garden trowel being used for
digging.
Where mice are abundant on large
areas poisoned bait should be dis
tributed in teaspoonful quantities in
the mouse runs and at the entrance Of
burrows. A mixture containing one
ounce Of powdered strychnine. one
once Of powdered bicarbonate Of soda,
and one-eighth ounce Of saccharine
should be sifted from a perforated tin
box over 30 pounds of crushed wheat
or 40 pounds of crushed oats, mixing
the grain constantly so that the poison
will be uniformly distributed. This
dry mixture may be kept indefinitely
without danger Of fermentation.
Where 1t is necessary to use whole
oats, the poison must penetrate the
kernels, because mice hull the oats
before eating them. Hence It Is es-
sential to dissolve one ounce Of strych-
MIA sulphate in two quarts Of boiling
water. N,t

Few people realize when they sit
down to dinner including fresh fruits
and vegetables, the great problems
confronting the producer, carrier and
jobber in packing, loading, preserving
In transit, or marketing these perish
able foodstuffs. Systems of marketing
have been so developed that these
perlshable products can be placed in
prime condition at the very door of
the consumer. Even when the snow
covers the ground in the North, people
In large cities are supplied with straw
berries and oranges from Florida.
caulflower and lettuce from Cali
fornia. and green onions and radlshes
from Louisiana.
While many problems have been
solved, others have been only partially
cleared away. The proper type Of
packages or containers for marketing
pcrishables comes in the latter class.
A visitor to any wholesale district In q
large city Is confronted with a con-
fusing array Of baskets, boxes and
crates Of every conceivable size and
shape, which may cause him to wonder
how business can be carried on under
such circumstances.
Berry and Grape Baskets Standard.
The first piece of national legisla-
ton covering containers for fruits and
vegetables applied to barrels, which
was followed by the standard con-
tainer act in 1916, standardlzlng berry
boxes, climax or grape baskets and
other small containers.
Now all berries and grapes that
move across state lines are carried In
standard sized packages, while manu-
facturers no longer make other types
OF grape and berry baskets. This in
sures square deal" to producer
and consumer, because the full-meas-
ure baskets mean that the producer
no longer loses on oversize containers
and the consumer gets full measure
when he buys berries and grapes.
Various states have passed laws
standardizing other forms Of con-
talners, but there Is sometimes lack
of uniformity in these state laws and
confusion arises at receiving markets.
This Is especially true In the case of
hampers In which vast amounts Of
fruit and vegetables are shipped each
year from many producing sections.
Too Many Sizes Of Hampers.
To eliminate much Of the confusion
and modify marketing products In
hampers, the United States depart
ment of agriculture favors the stand
ardization of hampers along three
general lines as to capacity, dimen-
sions and strength.
The hamper basket is popular
shipping container, particularly In the
eastern and southern states. Each
year about SOC, 1000. 900 of these baskets,
Of all sizes, are manufactured In about
100 factories near the large producing
sections or in the timber areas. Some
Of the larger factories turn out from
100000 to 100000 baskets annually,
and one firm is known to have an out
put Of over 100000 BY the use Of
machines making 500 to 800 baskets
daily, the manufacturer has been able
tn Increase his output greatly.

Of communicating the disease to man

the diseased birds are so emaciated
and their general health so affected
that their flesh is not fit for human
