cations of Some Preparation

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Mites, as well as lice, are trouble
some and harmful to poultry. They
do not live upon the birds like lice,
but during the day hide il the cracks
and crevices of the roosts and walls
Of the house and at night they come
out and get upon the fowls. Mites
suck the blood, and If allowed to
become plentiful, as they certainly
will if not destroyed, will affect seri-
Ously the health of fowls, and conse-
quently their ability to lay eggs.
Specialists in the United States De-
partment of Agriculture recommend
thorough applications Of carbolineum,
kerosene, or some of the coal-tar
preparations sold for this purpose, or
crude petroleum. to the interior OF
the poultry house.
Commercial coal-tar products are
more expensive, but retain their kill
ing power longer, and the cost Of
treatment may be lessened by reduc-
ing with an equal part of kerosene.
Crude petroleum will spray better If
thinned with one part Of kerosene
to four parts Of crude Oil. Both the
crude petroleum and the coal
tar products often contain for
eign particles, so should be
strained before attempting to spray.

binations of plants were packed in
barrels In sifo. The purpose was
to study the effect of the silo fer
mentstion. upon the finer. and other
features of the plants. 1t was thought
possible that silage would overcome
Objectionable qualities of certain
plants, in addition to breaking down
the fiber of some which were too
woody for stock feed.
Test PalatabiIity.
The various lots of silages were
taken to Beltsville to test their
palatability as cattle feed. The tests
were not protracted enough to give
final conclusions, but number of in
teresting results were obtained. Both
wild and tame sunflOwers were eaten
readily when they came out of the
silo, although the peculiar flavor and
woody stalk of the former make 1t
distasteful in it's natural state. Rus
sian thistle was eaten in the course
of about IL hours, and the same was
true of ragweed, which cattle seldom
touch In the field. Canada thistles,
and castor bean plants without seed
were eaten quite readily. Jack bean
vines and pods were eaten rather
reluctantly. The cows ate sliced Aus
tralian salt bush, but not the native
plant. Sliced onion tops were fed to
four cows; two ate them and two
refused them. Buckwheat also pro-
vided choice morsel. Cabbages,
which in their natural state are
eaten avidly by cattle, were absolute
ly untouched when sliced, the prod
uct being in many respects similar
to sauer kraut but without the salt.
Giant rye grass went untouched.
Cattle Fed Regular Rations.
The cattle were not compelled to
eat any of the sliced products to

satisfy munger, as hay was fed them
between sliced .rations and they had
the regular portions Of grain. The
tests were not entirely conclusive,
especially as the quantities were so
small that the animals did not have
an opportunity to get accustomed to
unfamiliar tiavors.
The department may make more
extensive tests another season on
some of the materials, as there was
no opportunity with barrel lots to
gain any knowledge as to the beef
and milk producing value Of the
feeds.

disclosure of plot to assassinate
M. Herzog, one of the leading
merchants of Mayersville, by an
organization which signs itself
the ''Black Brothers, Jim
Shaffer, a Negro, received a let

he had been appointed to do
away with Mr.. Herzog, who,
they said, was one of "our white

kill Mr.. Herzog at night in his
store with an axe, and make his
escape thru the back door. If
he failed to do this he was to be
taken out and hanged to a limb,
and if he gave it away he would
be followed and put to death.
After he completed the job, he
was to be made a member of the

ate enough towards him when we
found him sick to give him the first
two offerings requesting them to
send it to him. Ask your state
missionary if we did not give him
a night to speak and also an offer
ing for his work, and ask the trus-
tees of the Negro Baptist church
and it's pastor, Smith, haven t they
the receipts to show that all the
bills were paid. Then if, this be
true, why turn to a church associa-
ton in Des Moines, and try to
make a lightning bug convention
