that no one in the party was i'm

To help repair the results Of illness,
old age, work and worry In your daily
life; to help give strength to your run
down system and to help renew tagged
forces and tone up the rerves-you will
find valuable remedy in Ziron.
Read what Ziron did for an old man,
who had to stay IN bed most Of the time.
His daughter, Myrtle Mills, of Pulaski,
Tenn, Says: "Znon has helped my
father wonderfully. He could NOT do
anything before taking it. He was in bed
most of the time, complaining with bro
ken-down nerves and backache. He has
taken three bottles and says he is as
strong as when he was II years old"
If your blood needs iron, try Ziron
Iron Tonic. What it has done for 9TH
ers, it may do for you.
Ziron is mild, harmless; does not dis
color the teeth, and may be taken safely

Roosts should be taken down and all
unnecessary boards and boxes remoV-
ed. \ rather coarse spray should be
applied from all angles. The floor
should also be treated. One OF the
so-called wood preservers has been
found effective. This material is
heavy to spray. use with equal parts
Of kerosene. Crude petroleum IS al
most as effective, retains its killing
power for several weeks, and IS
| cheaper. 1t will spray better II
tninned with one part of kerosene to
four parts of crude oil.
Pure kerosene and kerosene emul-
sion in double the strength ordinarily
applied to plants will destroy all
mites hit. but not strong enough to
kill mites in protected situations.
With any. insectiside the results will
depend on thoroughness of appllca-
ton.
Poultry lice feed on portions of
the feathers or on scales from the
skin, and their presence in any con-
siderable numbers is responsible for
serious injury The first symptoms
of lice infestation usually are droop-
mess, lowered wings, and ruffied
feathers.
Treatment.
In a series of tests the most effect
i've treatment for lice was sodium
huorid. 1t is poisonous to all species
of chicken lice, kills adults and young,
including eggs. Sodium fuorid can
be obtained in two forms, known as
commercial and chemically pure, the
commercial form being cheaper and
just as good. The pinch method"
has advantage of time and material.
To apply: Place fowl on table, held
by legs or wings with one hand, while
the other puts small pinch of the
fuorid among the feathers next to
skin about as follows: One pinch on
head, one on neck, two on back, one
on breast, one below vent, one on
tail, one on either thigh, and one
scattered on the underside Of each
wing when spread. Each pinch can
be distributed by pushing the fingers
and thumb among the feathers.
The material may be applied by
means of a shaker, but this method
has some disadvantages as compared
with pinch method. So much is
wasted.
Dipping method. In using this
method all that is necessary is sup
ply of tepid water and tub. Use
three-fourths to one ounce of COM
mercial, or two-thirds of an ounce of
chemically pure sodium fuorid TO
each gallon of water.

Mites and Lice on Poultry.
Willie Mae Wise, Home Demonstra-
ton Agent.
Poultry raisers are familiar With
the common red Or grey mite which
infests poultry houses. Blood is alb
solutely essential for the development
of this mite in all stages. The mite
feeds almost entirely at night. This
mite produces very rapidly, the COM
plete life cycle from egg to adult re-
quiring not more than seven days
The weather is never too hot for this
mite to thrive. Although not hard to
kill, the greatest difficulty is reaching
them in their hiding places.
Treatment.

Regulating Utilities.

Announcement that cities hereafter may
cooperate with the state public utilities com
mission in the supervision of public utilities
concerns sounds good at first. Quite evidently
the state body desires better understanding
oil around and hopes to allay the hostility
that its decisions have aroused in many locali-
ties
The plan 10 TO permit cities to select local
inspectors whose duty it shall be to learn
whether street railway, gas, electric and other
kinds of service are up to standard. These
inspectors would work under rules laid down
by the board, but would be paid by the cities.
The board obviously would surrender none Of
it's prerogatives.
Probably the disposition Of municipalities
will be toward skepticism. Some Of them will
fail to see where they will be any better off
than in the past since complaints are easy to
secure gratis and the opportunity to submit
them never has been denied Probably there
will be some hesitancy in adding inspectors to
the payrolls. especially at time when reve-
nues are SC far short Of the needs Of cities.
Nevertheless the plan offers advantages. 1t
provides a way for a systematic check upon
public service and regular channels for the
gathering end fling of information necessary
to more efficient regulation. Cities should at
least give the matter fair consideration.

Starving the Church.

That many members of churches spend

contribute to the church in year is the start
ling statement made by those who have made
survey of churches in New York and other
leading cities Some who ride on the trolleys
every day give no more than the price Of q
trolley ride. Others who have automobiles
give NO more than they pay for q pint of gaso-
line. Evidently the church does not mean
much in the lives of SUCH persons.
These are among the facts being published
by the Presbyterian new era movement and
similar movements conducted by other demon
nations to impress the public with the handi-
caps that the church Of today is laboring under

America might - well make up its mind to
do tt own dirty work. Either that, or 1t will
have to invent the machinery that Will do away
with the dirty work. One thing seems certain:
America cannot longer depend upon "foreisn-
ers" to DO the disasreeable Jobs. As it has SO
largely in the past
But now the foreigner is staying home and
going homo. For the II months beginning in
November. 1918, total Of 214.421 persons left
the United States, while only 201,473 arrived.
During the normal period prior to 1914 more
than half Of the immigrants were listed as
unhlled workers. But It has been estimated
by the interracial council that FIVE times as
many unskilled laborers loft the country as
came in during the IL months succeeding the
armistice.
And, although more came in October, No
vember and December, 1918, and the Ellis
island estimates for the first three months of
1920 indicate that the tide Is swelling again,
an analysis Of the movement indicates that the
incoming stream OF humanity are women and
children, while the predominating number Of
the departing is composed Of able-bodied men.
And further, the department OF labor reports
that 100000 men and women are awaiting
passports or passage to the land of their
nativity
In the past, approximately so per cent of
the work on the railroads and in the railroad
shops of this country had been done by men
Of the immigrant class. The iron and steel
rolling mills employ 70 per cent immigrant
labor in all departments employing unskiled
labor. In textile mills the figure is Y per cent
In the building trades so per cent Of the I'M
skilled labor is foreign born.
Passport restrictions by foreign nations
high passenger rates, shortage OF ship accom-
modati0ns and American immigration laws pre-
vent the tide from moving westward again
