Question If person has pure-bred sires in all classes of animals he raises to sell but intends to breed his work mares for instance, to a scrub or grade stallion, 2nc to raise thsy colts for farm work is he eligible to enrolment in the campaign?
 Answer. No. Horses are included among the classes named and the mares must be bred to pure bred sire. (The classes are horses, cattle, sheep, swine. goats and pcultry)
 QIestior When poultry, for instance are on range and neighbours inferior sres are with them, how is it possible to comply with the requirements?
 Answer. The requirements are not yio- lated unless chickens are raised from the eggs of hens sired bly, such males. It would he preferable. however, to induce tl4e owner e the inferior roosters to dispose of therl In any case the breed- ing birds of a person enrolled in the campaign shculd be confined to his own premises. and other males fenced our during the breeding season. Question: Who is to determine whether sres are of good quality as we'll as being rure- bred
 Answer. While the opinions of the owner and others who have examined the stock will be accepted. it is suggested that he conslllt also an experienced judge
 
 rollment Hank. Sires which are diseased, En6ersized or otherwise inferior, even though pure bred. should be avoided. In formation on desirable types of live stock may be obtained from the department of agricultule.
 Question Need pure-bred sires pur- chased be registered?
 Answer Purc-hred animals bought or sold preferably should be registered as proaf nf r1IIr,. breeding
 Question If [, person has grade sire, a bull for instance, of exceptionally good type and which resembles a pure-bred and he intends tc get a registered pure bred bull later, can he be enrolled in the campaign?
 Answer Not until he stops using the grade bull as a sire. It is suggested that he sell the grade bull, and until he ob- tains a pure 'e0 bull of his own, breed his cows to good pure-bred bull owned by someone else In that case he would be eligible to enrolment.
 Question. May children be enrolled, and is there any age limit?
 Answer Tfere is no age limit Chl- tlren who own live stock and who are 2 hle to sign their names and comply with the requirements may be enrolled. Chil- dren interested in live stock should be encouraged to enroll.
 Briefly, a person must believe that the scrub rooster and the scrub boar are as objectionable. in principle. as the scrub bull There must be clean sweep of inferior sires if the owner wishes Uncle sam to officially enroll him in the Bet ter Sires-Bester Stock crusade But the conditions are easily fulfilled by per sons who. realizing the need for live stock Improvement, are ready to put their beliefs into actual practice.

] hens of lice is to take a tub of luke
 warm water into which put about four
 or five ounces of Kreko, a coal tar prepa-
 ration, mix thoroughly, and then while | one party stands on the inside of the | henhouse and hands out the birds, an- other should be at the tub, thoroughly dipping each fowl and working this water and mixture into the feathers. Don't only dip the fowl-take your hands and lift all the feathers up and down until the fowl looks like dish rag. Then squeeze the bird as dry as possible and turn it loose You can rest assured that every thing on the bird is dead. And by doing the whole flock this way the same day you get rid of all the trouble at once.
 The hens will blink and raise sand, as the stuff gets into their eyes d little. but in two or three hours you will have a flock of happy hens, and you'll see the eggs come, too Of course this must weather sets in.
 Poultry mites are also extremely troublesome and destructive in the hem house. They are blood-suckiilg parasites which exist entirely on the blood of the fowls. Naturally small and gray Tn color, these parasites attain considerable size and become red when they are gorged with blood During the day they hide in cracks and crevices, behind boards that are near the roosts, and in other treats, while at night, when the hens gc to roost, the mites leave their hid ing places and feast on the blood of the fowls. The irritation and loss of blood cause mature fowls to become pale in comb and poor in flesh; sitting hens will desert their nests and soil their eggs, if they do not die on the nests, and chickens will become weak and droopy, and in many instances die from the at 1pIr In ont it1r ha rNr.ity1 ar.{r essential is to subject each house, roost and nest to g thorough cleaning, followed by ane efficient spraying with kerosene, crude oil. creosote some heavy coal tar preparation. making sure that the spray penetrates all cracks and creyiceS where the mites may be hiding. The heavy coal-tar preparations are most effective and last the longest. They can be purchased at most drug stores and paint stores with full directions for mix ing and using. l always had best sue cess (and no failures) by using the raw creosote from the jaint stores I paint my roosts with it and then whip the walls with it by using large paint brush, or by using a spray.
 In badly infested houses it is advisable to cleap up as soon as possible, and about two days later apply the creosote.
 Cleanliness is one of the greatest means of combating lice, mites and fleaS and other insidious insects which prey on poultry. The poultry house roosts, drop ping boards and other places where the fowls or chickens congregate should be kept clean. An abundance of light and fresh air should be provided. While these things can not be depended on to keep away lice and mites, nevertheless they make it easier to determine when the pests are present, and also assist in keep ing the fowls healthy and vigorous and increasing the 0resstance. Sick or dis eased fowls arValways the first victims of these parasites, and should be re- moved from the flock immediately.
