he easily controlled by pouring crude
oil on the hacks of the hogs. or by
means Of oiled hos-scratching posts.
or by dipping the hogs in oil. coal tar
byprOduct dips. or the arsenic cattle

be burned. and if the hogs are sleeping
in dusty quarters. such quarters should
be sprinkled with crude Oil.

These worms are very expensive to the
hog raiser and must be controlled for
maximum returns. Attention is again
called to the mixture which should

mixture is as follows:

sired.
When worms are actually present
medicinal treatment must he reSorted
to. and the following treatment has
proven very satisfactory and effective.
Turpentine is Il common remedy and
easily obtained. and is highly recon-
mendel as Il cheap and convenient
remedy. especially for the large thorn
headed worm. which is so common in
Louisiana. The dose is one teaspoon
full for each SO to 100 pounds. live
weight. \ good time to give it is in
the morning. after the pigs have been
starved for about twelve hours. In
any case. all food should be withheld
for short time before giving the
remedy. Turpentine should be fed in
milk or moderately thin greasy slop so
that all the pigs will get some Of it.
The dose of turpentine should be
repeated daily until three doses have
been given: and when number of hogs
have to he treated. it is best to divide
them into lunches of ten. or so. so
that none Of the animals may get too
much Of the medicine.
1t is well to follow the treatment
with phySic Of some description.
EPSON salts. mixed in slop. will be
found useful for this latter purpose.

Look Out for 'sCoffee" Beans.

L. =. Department of Agriculture readcr.I
Buyers are warned against two So
called coffee beans-the South Amer
lean coffee bean," the other as new
coffee bean." which are being exploited
by extravagant statements in ADVERTISE
ments. The former is the jack bean.
the latter the SOY bean. Both are well
known plants. and there is no justifica-
ton either for extravag;lnt advertising
under new names nor for exorbitant
prices for the seed.
The use of the seeds of various
legunleS and cereals as coffee SubSti-
tutcS Is not new. LegumeS which have
been used or exploited as coffee include
the soy bean. cOwl'ea. chick pea. horse
bean and jack bean. Other legumes
used to some extent as coffee suhsti-
tutes. all of which are native species
and commonly known as coffee plants.
are coffee berry or coffee weed. coffee
plant or berry. and the Kentucky cOf-
fee tree. The seeds Of few of these
legumes. especially the SOY bean. pos
seSs some merit as coffee substitutes.
hut the deSirability of any is a matter
Of individual taste. This use has led to
the extensive advertising of such seeds
at various times under m!S'e;;lin:
names by enterprising individuals. and
even to their large use AS adn.te,nnts
Of the true coffee.
The SOY bean. almost since it's intro
duction into America. has been exploit
ed ut different times as coffee berry,
coffee bean" new coffee plant"
domestic coffee berry" and new do.
nestle coffee berry" For many years
the SOY bean has been used to Il slight
extent in Europe. especially Switzer-
land. as substitute for coffee In
Japan and Southern Russia the SOY
bean Is prepared as Il coffee substitute
and placed Oh the market. This prod.
uct Is ground very fine and has much
tile same appearance as coffee.
For those who desire Il substitute for
coffee as Il drink. the dry beans of any
variety of soy bean. when properly
roasted and prepared. may be used
Prepared as coffee. the SOY bean gives Il
liquid which In color and aroma is
similar to coffee. but it has no stimu
lating effect. Many people fond OF
cereal drinks think the SOY bean coffee
fully equal to the cereal coffee substi
tuteS.
The use Of the jack bean for " near =
coffee is not IL new thing. and its merit
for this purpose is no greater than that
of many ether beans. For forage, the
jack l'ean Is not equal to the SOY bean
velvet bean. or cowlea. and thus far II
has not shown that it is of any parti
cular value in American agriculture

\ magazine article we were reading
the other day went on to say that the
pipe lines of the United States for
conveying crude oil (trunk lines and
laterals) now aggregate nearly 10000
miles. and that it would take approx
mately two days flow from the 2Nl.OOO
wells of the country to fill the pipes.
Mcbhe so. But Bossier's big gusher
field is yet to he located and its
golden flow turned into the long lines.
When that occurs the StatiSticianS will
have to figure the thing all out anew.
