Carnegie Institution Central American
expedition for 1921, which penetrated
the region of Guatemala, in the de-

Yucatan peninsula, has returned to
this city.
The expedition, under the direction
OF DIR. S~ylvaEus G.. Morley. associate
in American archaeology of the insti-
tuition, left Washington early in Janu-
airy. The other Investigators were DR..
c. E. Guthe and William Gates. both
research associates of the institution.
The activities of the field season
consisted Of the exploration of the
forests of northern Peten in search for
new centers of this ancient civiliza-

Unearth Ancient Cities.
Following along the chicle (the sub

made) trails which traverse this re-
gion, Doctor Morley's party discovered
several new cities during the course Of
the field season, in what appears to
have been the very heart Of the old
Maya empire.

Dancing Helps

For two seasons past a dancing class

been conducted. under medical and
nurse w~atchfulness, the instruction
being given principal, by stronger

Class attendance is compulsory as

How Patients Are Affected.
For six months the dancing is out

strongly affected for good, Doctor
Brush asserts. One hardly recognizes
these patients at such functions: they

If the farm is above six acres and

include clover and grass, as: First
year, cotton, followed BY clover crop;
second year, corn and beans; third
year, small grain: fourth year,
clover and grass; fifth year, clover

100 pounds, feed three pounds milk
to one pound corn; for younger pigs,
four to five pounds milk to one pound
corn. Breed sows for fall litter. Do
not put mares at hard work until

Dairy Industry Growing Rapidly

Dairy Industry Growing Rapidly
Breeders Have Good Sale.
Dairying Is fast becoming one of
the big industries in Tennessee. The
quality Of COWS is rapidly being i'm
proved and every few months records
for butterfat and milk production are
being smashed. This is due to Of
fetal COW testing work. which makes
it possible to know what each COW
produces and enables the owner to
weed out the ''hoarders" and sent to
the butcher block.
Loisette's Fairy is the latest to
set a new record. She is four-year-
old, owned by George Bradford, of
Madison, Tenn, and has lust finished
an official record that places her as
the champion Junior four-year-old in
Tennessee. She was started on test
at four years and three months Of
age and produced 1913 pounds of
milk and sos pounds Of butterfat.
This record places her among the
ton-notch producers in this state.
she is a granddaughter Of Raleigh's
Fairy Boy.
Another important event for the
dairy industry was the East Tonnes
see Jersey Breeders sale held at
Knoxville on May 6. Fifty-two head
Of high-class cattle, including 40
COWS and heifers and three bulls,
sold for S8.105, an average Of $156.
The highest priced animal sold
brought s425 and only few brought
under 500. In view Of present con-
ditions in agricultural and industrial
circles, this was considered a good
average by the breeders who made
consignments to the sale. Buyers
were present from four states and
MANY parts of Tennessee, indicating
the interest in dairying at this time.
Hundreds Of Tennessee farmers
are taking up dairying. In fact, there
is more interest at this time in dairy
inc than ever before, and an en-
couraging feature of the movement
IS that the farmers are STARTING out
with good cows and are having them
tested, say dairy specialists.

Stomach Worm Most Destructive
Sheen AiIme1lt-Treatment.

pLOHldCu WVTm mOSb OeStIuCIiVe
Sheep Ailmeut-Treatment.
The stomach worm is the most de-
structive parasite of sheep, accord
ing to livestock specialists Of the Di-
vision Of Extension. The effects Of
this worm are not usually noticeable
in lambs until about the. middle of
the summer. However, lambs or
sheep may be affected any time Of
the year. The past mild winter and
unusual amount of moisture have
been very favorable for the early de-
velopment of this pest.
The presence of stomach worms is
characterized by the appearance Of
the sheep. The animal shows weak
ness, drops behind the flock while
grazing. The mucous membrane Of
the eyes and mouth become very pale,
the skin loses its healthy pink color
and becomes whitish in appearance.
Very often the sheep has the scours.
A definite diagnosis may be arrived
at by making post-mortem. This
is best done by killing sheep show
ing the outward symptoms Of hav-
ing worms. After it has been dead
few hours it is difficult to find the
worms, as they soon die and disin-
tergate. The worms, if present, will
be found in the fourth stomach. Be-
fore cutting open the stomach it is
well to tie a string around the in
testines leading into the stomach and
another string around the other end
of the stomach. This will keep the
contents from flowing out. After
this is done, an incision may be made
along nearly the full length Of the.
stomach and if the worms are pres
ent they may seen wiggling in the
fluid. They are from one-half to
one-fourth inches long and about as
thick as a pin: A rather close ex-
animation has to be made to see the
worms.
Treatment The best treatment for
stomach worms has been found to be
copper sulphate (blue stone). Dis
sole one-fourth pound Of clean blue
crystals of copper sulphate in one
pint of boiling water; then add
enough cold water to make three gal
Ions. It is well to pulverize the cop
per sulphate before putting it in the
hot water Use only wooden or
earthenware vessels, as the blue stone
corrodes most metals. The above
amount of the solution will be enough
to treat 100 mature sheep The dose
is as follows: For lambs one year
old. IL ounces. Three and one
half tablespoons). For sheep past one
year, 81 ounces. (Seven table,
spoonsl.
Drenching Sheep-A plunger syr-
inge holding about two ounces and
having rather large onening may be
used. 1t serves a double purpose of
measuring and administering the
dose. a. rubber tube about three feet
long and three-eighths inches in d.

can also be used. Care must be exer-
cised in giving the dose. IF the liquid
is poured into the sheep's mouth too
fast. it NAV run down into the lungs
