dipping have had time to become ma
ture and deposit more eggs. AS the
eggs on the body Of the host usually
require 4 days incubation, sometimes
} week, and probably never more than
40 days, and as 10 to IL days are nec
,essary for the young mites after hatch
ing to grow to maturity, mate, and de-
post their eggs, 1t would appear that
the best time for the second dipping
is about 10 days after the first, as all
the eggs will have Matched, while prac-
tically none Of the new generation OF
mites will have developed sufficiently
to deposit eggs. Practical experience
has shown that the second dipping
may be delayed until the fourteenth
day without unfavorably affecting the
results Of the treatment, but wherever
possible it is preferable to follow the
Today rule

ONE DIP NOT ENOUGH
TO CURE SHEEP SCAB
One Reason Is That All Eggs
Have Not Been Killed.
Important That Second Treatment 30
Made Before Mites Which May
Hatcf, Out Have Had Chance
to Deposit More EGGS.

A single dipping usually fails to rid
a flock Of sheep from scab, according
to findings Of specialists Of the United
States department Of agriculture re"
ported In Farmers Bulletin 719.
The apparent reason is either that
all the females in the course Of de.
posting eggs, at which tiWe they ap-
pear especially tenacious Of life, or all
the eggs already deposited have not
been destroyed BY the dipping; conse
Quently, after the eggs which may
have escaped the first dipping have
had an opportunity to complete their
incubation, 1t Is essential to dip the
sheep again.
1t is also essential that the second
dipping take place before any mites
which may hatch out after the first

POWER TO FIX
RATES is GIVEN
One Agreement Between Conferees On
Railroad Bills-Endorsement of
Senator's Plans.

WASHINGTON, Jan 3. = An agree
ment to give the interstate commerce
commission supreme authority in fix
ing railroad rates with power to sus-
pend the annual rate orders of state
commissions WAS reached yeserday by
the senate and house conference in
considering the Esch- Cummins railroad
recognizing bill.
The interstate commerce commission
under the agreement would be author
lied to substitute its findings and rate
orders for those of state commissions
when the latter give an unfair advan-
tage to or discriminate against inter
state commerce.
The power of state railway commits
lions, however. would not be hampered
nor encroaehed upon by the federal
commission in the making of intrastate
rates if such do not discriminate
against interests outside the state OF
with interst ate commerce.
The conference agreement, Chair
man Cummins announced last night
provides for adoption of the senate
bill S provisions. The house plan of au.
thorizing the federal commission tc
suspend state rates if such placed ar
undue bureen' upon interstate com
merce, was believed by some of this
conferees TO involve comforting upor
the commission power to revise al
state rates.
