.C0lpll NURSE

Pioneer work in Morrison county
began when Janet Worden, Red Cross
nurse, took the position May Is, 1919.
She had to make her way ii all Sec
lions OF the county, meeting physi-
clans, ministers. dentists and drug
g1sts, county ohlcials and in
huential people. 1t W q q
rather late to begin the examinations
of the school children as many Of the
rural schools were closing, SOL in each
Of the 10 districts a committee of s
persons was formed to take charge of
the nursing and health side Of their
district The chairman was asked to
report to the nurse all cases needing
care, investigation, relief or advice.
Then followed the teaching of women
In classes Of Is to 20 how to care for
their own people in case of illness.
Each lesson was two hours In length,
given In churches and school houses,
town halls, private homes. The course
was II lessons when completed and
covered practical lessons in carrying
out physicians orders, diet, bathing,
ventilation, bandaging, temperature,
pulse and respiration, prenatal and
maternity work, paralysis, influenza,
pneumonia, all contagious diseases,
accidents, burns, drowning, fractures,
fumigation, isolation and tuberculosis
and along all lines which would fam
iliarize them with sickness in case of
an epidemic, such as we have had
this winter. There were over 200
pupils enrolled and the nurse taught
five days in each week from June 4
to Oct. Is, when she began examin-
ing the school children in the county
schools. Sixty-seven signed certif;-
Gates were delivered.
Number of children examiner May
1888, to May 6, 1920, in 66 schools,

An effort is being made to interest
farmers of this county in the growing
of sorghum. "A letter received from
A. D. Wilson of the university extension
division. states that this county is
adapted for growing sorghum and say
ing that a sorghum factory could be
put up at. comparatively small expense.
There are several in the county now
who grow this and Palmer Nelson Of
the Board Of Commerce has written to
them in regard to the matter.

Club Work for Boys and Girls
Calf Club

We must have 10 boys and girls in
Morrison county enter the calf club
before June / if this county is to en-
ter the state contest. The first Is
counties to enter may compete for
the state prizes.
Pure bred heifer calves about six
months of age are best to start with
For good heifers of this age from
$3.50 to $500 will probably be re-
quired on account of the strong de-
mand for this stock.
Pig Club
The same number Of contestants
are required for the pig contest. A
number of boys and girls have their
pigs. All must enter before June 1.
Excellent pigs can be- secured in the
county at $500 each. Ask the coun-
ty agent to help you find the pig you
want.
Wool Growers Convene
Wool growers of the county will
meet at Little Falls on Saturday, May
%, to form an organization for the
pooling of the 1920 wool clip
Many counties have organized and
arrangements are being made to Sc
cure wool grader, who will grade
the wool into three grades and sell
according to grade
The meeting on May 6 was not
well attended, but those present
from various parts of the county
were much in favor of the plan Mr..
F. c. Clapp, who attended the prev
ious meeting, will assist in the or
ganization meeting on May %.
This plan has worked remarkably
we'll in Illinois where nearly 100000
pounds were pooled and sold 1Oc to
II cents above the price offered by
local buyers.
One big advantage of pooling is
that large quantities are assembled
and attracts many buyers who repre-
sent mills in many cases, and the
wool is sold direct from the farmer
to the manufacturer.
The grower also has the satisfac-
ton of knowing that his wool was
graded according to merit, and he has
the opportunity to learn something
about commercial grades Of wool and
the price it brings. 49,.

The Columbus dispatch. (Columbus, Miss.) 19??-1922, 1920-06-20

Locust can in some way poison ber-
ries and other fruits. This idea is
absolutely false. 1t is no more dan
gerous to eat berries or any other
fruit when cicadas are abundant than
at any other time.
The Periodical Cicada in 1920 in
Mississippi.
Brood No. 10 of the Periodical CT
cada now occurs in many parts of
Mississippi. This brood last appeared
in 1907, and will not be seen again un-
til 1888. Specimens have been re-
ceived this year from the following
counties in Mississippi; Attala,
Chicasaw, Choctaw, Clay, Clarke, Jas
per, Lauderdale, Kemper Lee Monroe,
Noxubee, Oktibbeha, Prentiss, Rankin,
Scott, Webster, Winston and Yazoo.
Large numbers of cicadas have been
received from few counties, but only
one specimen has been received from
Alfalfa, Clark and Yazoo Counties.
The Entomology Department is es-
pecially anxious to determine the dis
tribution of this insect in Mississippi
this year. If you have heard these
insects during the past month please
write to the Entomologist, Agricultu-
raj College, Miss, and state when and
where they were heard. If you can
collect some specimens, send athem
along also. =
Cicadas Probably in Other Counties.
Records From Previous
Generations.
In 1907, 1894, 1881, or some prev
ious generation, this brood of the
Periodical Cicada has been reported
from Copiah, Franklin, Leake and
Madison Counties, but no positive
records have been received from these
counties during 1920.
There is every reason to believe
that the Periodical Cicada occurs this
year also in Alcorn, Calhoun, Carroll,
Covington, Grenada, Kinds, Holmes,
Itawamba, Jones, Lowndes, Montgom-
cry, Neshoba, Pontotoc, Simpson,
Smith, Tippah, Tishomingo, Union,
Wayne, and other counties.
Send Information or Specimens to
Entomology Department.
1t is hoped that people in every
county in Mississippi who have no
ticed these insects this year will write
to the Entomology Department, giving
full information as to where these in
sects occur. Specimens should also
be mailed when that is possible. The
Entomology Department will also be
glad to answer questions and give in
formation in regard to these and

MORE FACTS ABOUT THE
PERIODICAL CICADA OR
THIRTEEN-YEAR LOCUST
(By R. W. Harned)

During the past two weeks dozens
of letters have been received asking
for information concerning the Period
zeal Cicada or 1S-year Locust.
Thirteen Year Race Discovered by a
Mississippian.
An interesting and very important
fact in connection with the Periodical
Cicada was the discovery that there
was a 13-year race of this insect in
the South that was apparently iden-
teal with the 17-year race long
known in the northern states. This
discovery was made by well-known
Mississippian, DR.. D. L. Phares, who
was at one time profession of biology
at the Mississippi A. and NJ. College.
In the Woodville Miss Republican,
on May II, 1s45, Doctor Phares an
nounced the thirteen-year period for
the Southern broods. He published
another article on this same subject
in the Woodville Republican of May
5, 1858, and later in the April tlS7S)
number of the Southern Field and
Factory, published at jackson, Miss,
he had an article on this subject.
Cicadas Not Poisonous.
Many people throughout Mississip-
pi have the erroneous idea that the

tablespoonful of the tea, put cup of
