To Control Chicken Lice.
Sodium ,FIuorid Most Satisfactory.

Clemson College, May.-Poultry lice
do not suck blood. They feed on por-
tions of the feathers or on the scales
Of the skin. The greatest loss from
lice is possibly that,of young chickens
which may become infested from the
mother hen, even before they become
dry after leaving the egg shell.
Though there are several kinds Of
poultry lice, they can all be controlled
by the same method.
Control.
Sodium fuorid appears to be the
most satisfactory chemical to use for
the control Of all kinds of poultry lice.
The treatment must be thorough, and
every fowl in the poultry yard must
be treated, because If one infested
chicken escapes, it may then be but
a sort time until the entire flock is
again infested. The commercial form
of sodium fluorid may be obtained at
most drug stores. Small amounts or
"pinches" of this chemical should be
placed on different parts of the body
of the chicken as follows: Place the
fowl on table in an open vessel, hold
the legs and wings in one hand, and
with the other hand place small
pinch of the chemical next to the skin
among the feathers on the head, neck
each thigh, underside of spread wings.
and distribute by pushing the fingers
among the feathers. One pound will
treat about 100 hens. For young chicks
the head, back and body are the only
parts that are necessary to treat.
Precautions.
Wash the hands thoroughly after
using chemical. 1t will not injure the
hands, but It is frequently irritable to
sores. 1t should of course never be
taken internally.

Peanuts a Paying Crop For the
South.

washington, April 17.-one cof: the
best paying of Southern crops and
one which may be made productive ;if
therpeople of the South would turn
away from cotton is that of growing
peanuts. They are just now a drug
on the market, largely because they
.are.not eaten to any great extent in
rcold weather. With the coming OF
spring, there is a largely increased
consumption, which means higher
prices, this larger consumption being
due to the fact that in that period
there aare many picnics, out-of-door
entertainments, gatherings in the va
:rious parks. ETC., at which time the
:peanut is in demand In round figures
.9O,Q0O;0oO. pounds of peanuts are
grown in.the United States every year
and 1OO,000,OO0 pounds were import
ed from Asia alone last year. About
$4,000, ,O0Orpounds of roaster peanuts
are consumed annually, according to
the III. S. Department Of Agriculture.
.Aathoughiit is not known, there are
more than 100, different methods of
utilizing peanuts, including thea max
ing of fancy dyes, wool stains, peanut
milk, coffee and ice cream. Few OF
the products are sold commercially
because our people have not investi-
gated thoroughly to see how this val
liable product maybe used to best $ad-
vantage. Up to the present time, the
peanut is used largely in oil, candy,
peanut butter, salted peanuts, roasted
peanuts and in various other fores,
our per capita consumption being
abept three and one-half pounds.
Every time soaps are used, the con-
sunes is partaking of his three and
one-hsIf pounds.
Fully half of the peanuts grown in
the Southern States are fed to hogs.
Large quantities of peanuts are ex-
ported also, 1,074,007 pounds having
gone out of the country during the
month of Janpary alone. Of this .quan
tity 7S per cent went to Canada,
where the peanut enjoys co-popplari-
ty with the Glove. Cuba took Ia per
cent, Jamaica 2 per cent, and Ber-
muda per cent.

Cure 6f EMilk-and Cream on
tthgsFarm.

GlensorT college, April 18.-There
are two good reasons for giving milk
and trreamsspecial care: first, milk is
delicious, highly nutritious, very
valuable, land essential food product,
but It -Millnnever:reach its highest
quality unless properly cared for:
secondly sonly. food products of the
highest quality command ready
market sat. top prices. For the latter
reason alone,-it is we'll worth while
to care for the milk and cream be-
cause the difference in return for
high class and inferior product will
more tran opay for the added labor.
At no time has this been so evident
as during the last year, when the
best .hutter has brought as high as
20 cents per pound more than butter
of a lower quality. Moreover salts
fed customers. mean more ready out
lets for :one's product at higher
prices.
Care 9df ?N4illr:.and Cream Easy.
The care oof. milk and cream is so
easy that one is obliged to believe
that it is t1oushtlessness rather than
anything else which is responsible for
the lack of care and attention. All
that is needed is. tossee that the milk
is drawn under clean conditions into
clean vessels. and then cooled at once
to so degrees Fahrenheit. The cooling
is far more effective when it is done
right away .than~when couple of
hours are allowed to. elapse before
cooling is begnn.l If the dairy is large
enough to warrant doing so, the cool
ing can be done most easily by buying
some kind of cooling; device designed
for that purpose. Such cooler can
be had for "a small sum and has the
advantage. that the milk is poured
right over the cooler when the milk
ing is completed. The, principle OF the
cooler is that the milk passes over
coils through which cold water cir
culates and thus very nearly assumes
the temperature Of the water used.
When the dairy consists only OF
one or two cows, thesmilk may be put
in thin walled vessels and set in
pail or, tub of cold water. By STIR
ring the, milk now and again for
. short while it will soon Abe cooled
enough OF keep for "a long time. If
1.-The milk is skinned by 2means of a
hand separator, the cream can be
treated in the. same :nlanneraas out
lined for the milk. Milk sand cream
treated in this way hasa much better
: taste, will keep longer, will sell for
a, higher price and produces better
quality product no matter for what
purpose used.

Quickly she went out to the little
porch. Far down the hill sounded
the tap-tap of Johns cane and his
swift footballs. There was another
seund-slow, monotonous, rumbling-
chen whistle for the Crossing.
She must find out if he got there in
time. Hatless, coatless, she ran down
the hill, only to meet John, breathing
heavily, on the way back.
"Nere you in tiFne?" she cried.
"Thank heaven, yes,!" he answered.
