WHAT WILL KILL CHICKEN
LICE AND WHAT WILL NOT

Experiments TO determine what
substances are best for eLterminatinE
or keeping under control chicken lice
have been made by the United States
department OF agriculture.
The following is a list Of powdered
substances that were found TO be
effective against chicken lice when
used as dusts: Arsenic triOLid. barium
fluorld, barium tetrasul phid. borax.
boric acid. cloves, naphthaiele, para
dichlOrobenZene, sabadilla seeds. sas-
satras bark, sodium fluorid. flowers
OF sulphur, and refined sulphur Only
a Few OF these materials can. how
ever, be considered OF any practical
value in the control Of chicken lice
Arsenic trioIid is too poisonous;
barium fluorid. cloves, sabadilla
seeds and paradichI0rob enzeue are
TOO expensive or not readily avail
able IN large quantities. naphthalene
IS dangerous II applied too freely, and
barium tetrasulphid does not KIN all
the lice. Sodium fluorid IS the most
practical remedy given in this list.
The materials listed below were
found 70 be OF no value against
chicken lice IN spite OF popular opin-
ion regarding many OF them.
Angelica root, calcium carbonate. I
calcium tluOrid- calcium hydroxid. I
calcium oEld, calcium sulphate, colo
cynJn pulp diatomaceous earth. dolo-
InlLc lime, eucalyptus leaves, ferrous

DlcarbOnates vermilion, yellow ochre. /

-Basing my opinion on u years
practical experience in the poultry
industry as conducted on a large

what nave seen OF Fl PaSO cOudi-
tons that IL is entirely possible to

can be no question that there is a
Get Good stock.
ut cannot be too strongly empha-
sized that the development OF the in
dustry on a large scale depends first
upon a more general use OF good
stock. Proper methods Of handling
and culling are necessary to success
but they are not in themselves
enough. The average annual egg pro
duction per hen Of farm fl0cks varies
from So TO 50 STANDARD bred flocks
in view Of these facts it is obvious
that even the purely commercial pro-
ducer, who produces exclusively for
the market, must come to the breed
ers Of standard bred stock for new
blood to increase and maintain the
vitality and prOductiveness Of his
flock

Millions in Wealth Added.
Some Of the results are that liter
ally millions Of dollars have been
added TO the wealth production Of the
state. Iowa is now one Of the leading
states in the poultry production. de-
spite the fact that in Ohio, Illinois,
Missouri and other states great strides
forward have been made. In Page
county, Iowa, alone, the production
has been multiplied by five since 1918,
adding at least half a million to the
revenue produced
Results similar to this have al
ways been obtained by organized ef-
forts not only in Iowa but in every
state taat is a large producer Of
poultry.
such results are entirely possible

preparation either from the state or

Extra Henna Shampoo

Paris November e.
II THIS city OF artificialities I have
/ made one discovery which I think
is invaluable. This I shall call, for
convenience, the extra henua sham
poo since my readers are already
familiar with the henna shampoo
which brightens the hair without
changing its color.
I wanted to find some method OF
preventing premature grayness y. If
that could not be done. Of covering up
the early gray hairs so they do not
show. In London I found the PilO-
carpine Hair Tonic which feeds the
color cells and prevents gray hair. for
time al least And in Paris I found
an ingenious shampoo which covers
up the gray hairs and which is not
harmful. This is the henua shampoo
given in the following fashion.
Shampoo the hair in the usual way,
giving the scalp whatever treatment
Is necessary to improve its health.
While the head is still wet. but after
the sOapy water has been rinsed out
mix couple Of ounces Of Egyptian
henna with enough very hot water
all over the hair and rub It into the
scalp Let It stay on exactly three
minutes; rinse off with hot water,
then with cooler until the hair is
free Of it; then dry in the usual
fashion.
The effect viii not be fully seen
for a few days. Then you viii find
that the hairs which We're white and
which were showing through so
plainly have become a faint golden
yellow. They viii stiu show. but
they VIII not be nearly so prominent. /
and you VIII be delighted at the re-
suit Fortunately, these white hairs

DR.. Eliot to ascertain whether GER
tain comments on West Point teach

DR.. Eliot replied to General Ruck-
man that this quotation, while not in
his exact words, was substantially
correct. He continued:
I'm my opinion no American
school or college intended for youths
of between Is and % years of age
should accept such ilI-prepared mate
rial as West Point accepts" No

The methods of fighting were in the

been new. The red tape methods

Expenses Of Senator Johnson's
primary campaign in California were
estimated by Mr.. Lucey as between
100000 and $25O,00O, and his bill

more than the entire expenditure OF

of California"
