Whitewash is effective in killing
mites and other sorts of vermin and
may be used freely in spraying the
poultry houses, brood coops and roosts,
scientists of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture say. In badly in
tested places it is advisable to clean
and spray with a stronger disinfectant,
and in 48 hours follow with good
spray or coating of whitewash. An
effective whitewash for this purpose
is made as follows:
Stake half a peck Of lime and di-
lutte it with 20 gallons of water; add
one pound of salt previously dissolved
in water: to this mixture add two
quarts Of crude carbolic acid. Apply
with spray pump or brush. This, If
properly put on, not only kills the
mites, but destroys all their eggs ana
makes the house or any building where
it is used fre-h and clean.
Cleanliness is of the greatest i'm
portance in keeping lice, mites. tleas,
and other insects under control. The
poultry houses, roosts, dropping
boards, brood coops, and all other
places that the fowls occupy should be
kept clean. An abundance of light and
fresh air should be provided. While
these things cannot be depended on to
keep away lice and mites, they make
II easier to determine when the pests
are present and help to keep the
fowls healthy, vigorous, and better
able to withstand an attack of lice
and mites. Sick or diseased fowls
are always the first victims Of these
parasites, which makes it important
that the fowls be kept healthy.

Picture of Mounted
Police at the Isis
Next Saturday

A picture o + the northwest
mounted police type is offered Sat-
urday only at the Isis theatre in
''The Recoil' with George Cheseboro
in the stellar role.
This type of picture with its red
blooded men and brave women al
ways prove stirring entertainment.
'The Recoil" gives a different twist
to this type of picture by opening its
early scenes in a college where two
brothers are devouring knowledge
and both in love with the same girl.
Don, not being over scrupulous, does
not hesitate to lie about his brother
"Mac" and succeeds in winning the
girl.
In the northwoods where he takes
her he falls in the way of Doucut,
who is known not to be above re-
proach. His knife, which is con-
stantly hanging at his belt, is always
handy.

Staffanson's Poem

Steffanson, the Arctic explorer,
grew up in North Dakota and has
never married. He is now in middle
life, and one of his classmates in
college has sent us this poem written
by Steffanson when he was twenty
years old.
1t seems part of the irony of fate
that some people are denied what
they prize most, and that many Of
the things that are most desired are
withheld until they reach such an
advanced age that they do not care
for it or do not enjoy it when they
attain it.
Following is Steffanson's express
sion at the age Of twenty:
A feeling comes to my heart tonight
That has filed since the world began,
The centuries, and has been the light
OF the life of the common man.
For love is the law, the master force,
That makes the world akin;
That throws glow over all without
And mellows the soul within.
IT'S glorious, on a wirld-wide stage,
To wear . hero's crown
That shines with the gems of mighty
deeds,
with the gold OF fair renown.
But every prize this earth holds out,
Of has held since the world began,
/ would renounce and hold for =

Bell Ringing,
One of the Oldest
Christmas Customs
n71 HAT would Christmas be with
VLXQ out the melody Of the bells
ringing good will toward men?

ringing good will toward men ?
Bell ringing is one of the oldest of
Christmas customs. At one time, in
England, the ringers gave their serv-
fees free, nor would they accept any
special payment. The peal was rung
as matter of course, and was the
natural expression Of English joyous
ness. The merry music of the bells in
Great Britain and wherever churches
have peals of bells, is today as much
a feature of Christmas as the deeora-
ton of church ana home with ever
greens, or the provision of the good
cheer which always marks this festive
season.
What an outcry there would be If
an edict were issued forbidding the
ringing Of the bells during the coming
festive season! Yet this was actually
done during the Commonwealth, for
in 1852 the wise men of parliament
gave orders that mo observation shall
be had Of the five-and-twentieth day
Of December, commonly called Christ
mas day."
1t is quite certain that this edict
was disregarded in many places, while
in others 1t led to open rioting. At
Canterbury the mayor Of the city tried
to enforce the new rule, but the people
were not going to be deprived Of their
pleasures so easily, so they took the
law into their own hands, broke the
mayors windows-and some of his
bones as well-and affirmed their in
tention Of keeping their Christmas in
their own fashion, just as their fathers
had done before them.

VALUE OF DOcKAGE IN WHEAT
Material Sometimes Contains Quanti.
ties Of Nutritious Grain,
Coed for Farm Use.

Dockage found In wheat In some In.
stances Is Of real value, while In 9TH
ers It not only may have no value but
often may contain ingredients that are
positively harmful II ground with the
wheat, say specialists Of the United
States Department Of Agriculture.
The value Of dockags, therefore. de-
ponds on the value Of the material
separated from the wheat. Dockage
frequently contains quantities Of nutri-
tious grain and weed seeds, a. max.
seed, wild oats, or other cereal grains.
Much Of this material can be used to
good advantage AZ poultry Or stock
feed. Wild mustard and flaxseed
can be removed from the dockage in
practically a pure state by the use Of
special cleaning machinery, such as Is
sometimes found in terminal elevators
and the larger flour mills, but even
then the cost Of cleaning will be con-
siderable, and when so separated will
ordinarily command a fair price.
Under the dockage system Of the
federal standards, the amount Of for.
'eign material separated and consid-
cred as dockage Is deducted from the
weight Of the wheat purchased and,
In any event, does not affect the grade
Of the clean wheat. This results In
higher grade and the price paid Is on
the basis of this grade for the dockage-
free wheat.
