LIVE STOCK
FACTS
PARASITES CAUSE BIG LOSS
Injury From Insects Is Greatest
Among Lambs and Young Sheep
Ways to Prevent Diseases.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Sheep probably suffer more than any
other kind of live stock from para
sites. They are practically immune
to tuberculosis, which is one of the
serious ailments of cattle and swine,
and among sheep there is nothing
comparable to the devastating out
breaks Of cholera among swine. Sheep
have comparatively few bacterial
diseases. Nevertheless, there is
steady loss of sheep in all parts Of
the country and this loss is mostly
due TO parasites.
1t is the sheep owners business to
prevent disease rather than to attempt
to cure it after 1t has made its APP
pearance. While there are special
treatments for the Various diseases
which makes it advisable to call a
competent veterinarian, there are a
number of ways to prevent diseases
caused by parasites Among these
pasture rotation, use Of forage crops,
feeding from racks or board floors,
draining or filling swamps, and pre-
venting wandering dogs from getting
into the flock. Permanent pastures
perpetuate paraslEs, 1t is stated. The
eggs of internal parasites pass from
the animals in the manure and thus
the pastures become infested. The
proper disposal of the manure will
aid in preventing this.
Damage from parasites is greatest,
as rule. among lambs and young
sheep. Hence, it is important to pay
special attention to the care and
handling OF lambs and yearllngs.
Prompt action to ascertain the cause
when sheep become unthrifty will
often prevent serious loss.
Parasites-of sheep are divided into
two general groups, external and in
ternal. Among the former, lice, sheep
ticks, and seab mites are the most
common. One application of sodium
fouride in the form of powder
rubbed into the skin will kill biting
lice, but not sucking lice. Both kinds
Of lice, sheep ticks, and scab mites

Schurman, Minister to China

Jacob Gould Schurman, who re-
tired from the presidency OF Cornell
university last year, after tweflty-eight
years of service, has been chosen by
President Harding to be minister to
China. Before the nomination Of Mr..
Schurman was officially announced, the
Chinese government was notified Of
his selection. DR.. Schurman was
chairman of the first United States
Philippine commission. He also served
in diplomatic service as minister to
Greece and Montenegro in 1922 So he
Is not without diplomatic experience.
He was born In 1854 In Freetown,
Prince Edward Island and Is the de
scendant Of a New York Dutch fam
lily. His education was gained at Lon
don, Paris, Edinburgh. Heidelberg.
Berlin and Gottingen and in Italy. So
he knows the world. He has also the
degree of LID. from at least eight
universities. So his scholarship Is
recognized.

are destroyed by dipping the sheep.
For lice and sheep ticks a number Of
dips are recommended in the bulle-
tin, including coal tar creosote, cresol,
and nicotin, or nicotin and sulphur.
For scab mites the official dips are
lime-sulphur and nicotin-sulphur dips.
Arsenical dips are not well suited to
sheep dipping. All places which have
been occupied by lousy sheep should
be regarded as dangerous from this
standpoint for period Of three weeks;
If occupied by ticky sheep, as dan
gerous for two months; If occupied
by scabby sheep, as dangerous for
month or two In the case of pastures,
and a year or more In the case OF
buildings. Quarantine measures are
essential in Graduating scab.
The most common internal parasites
of sheep include tapeworms, fiukes.
roundworms, and few other forms
such as maggots causing grub In the
head, the tongue-worm and the one
celled protozoa. One Of the most com.
mon of these is the grub. infestation
with which can be largely prevented
by smearing the nose OF the sheep
with a preparation made Of equal
parts Of tar and grease. or tar and
fish oil Other important internal par
asites discussed in the bulletin are
tapeworms. the gid parasites. hydatid,
liver fukes, stomach worms, nodular
worms. hookworms, and lungworms.
OF these, certain tapeworms are fair
~ common over the entire United
States: one tapeworm occurs only In
the West; gid Is most prevalent In
Montana; liver fiukes are most com
mon In the Gulf states and the Pacific
Coast states; stomach worms and lung
worms take heavy toll in sheep In
almost every state In the Union. ana
nodular worms and hookworms are
common In the South and East.

Bryce on American Democracy

There Is at least one Britisher
who is loved by the American people.
He Is James Bryce, formerly ambas-
sador at Washington and now Viscount
Bryce. Americans love him because
he loves US. And he loves US because
he understands US. And he under
stands us because he has studied US.
vlscount Bryce has spent many
years in the study Of government
especially of democratic government.
In this field his authority is great and
his mastery of detail is uncontested.
He Is believer In democracy. In his
new book Modern Democracies" (Mac-
millan) he has much to say concerning
democracy in the United States In
these latter days He finds the two
especial weaknesses of American gov
eminent to lie In an inadequate system
Of justice and In municipal malad-
ministration.
He says however: mo English
man who remembers American poll.

Americas Merchant Marine

crisis; 1t is the duty of American ex-
porters to cooperate TO keep our over

Of the worlds carrying trade and Of

declaration of James H. Farrell, presl-

burning to death two Tampa women. It
it alleged that Mendenhall acted as
what might be called the governor 8
agent at Raiford, drumming up "busi-
ness among such men as might have
some money and wish to be pardoned.
Mendenhall is said to have told the COM
mittee Of other cases of the same ma
ture, but members OF the committee re-
fuse to talk on this point. 1t is known,
however, that thei investigations have
not yet been completed and there is a
possibility of action in still another
county than Bradford, it is rumored The
sum mentioned in connection with the
case is much larger than in the Coleman
case, but all Information on this is re-
fused by the committee until it shall
have examined other witnesses.
Coleman, who is said to have made the
payment through Mendenhall to Cats.
went before the grand jury at Starge
Wednesday. Mendenhall was also be-
fore the jury. Chairman Wells of the
joint committee, went to Starke yester-
day and was there when the grand jury
was in session, but all he would say
about the matter tonight was that it was
fact that Mendenhall and Coleman
went before the grand jury. He would
not talk about what had been done or
would be done in the committee.
1t is known, however, that there are
two charges involving peonage. the facts
in which it is stated have been laid be-
fore the federal authorities. One involves
the pardoning of George III. Rogers,
negro sent from Osceola county in 1909
for murder, and the other brings in the
name Of a negro named Ed Brown. Both
are said to have been required to work
on the governors farm at DeFunak
Springs without pay in return for the
pardon given them. Rogers paid w. C..
Hodges, Tallahassee lawyer, $50 for
his services in getting the pardon. He
told reporter that the governor brought
the papers for him to prison camp num-
ber 6 in Baker county and when told
that Rogers had paid Hodges, said he
should have paid him, Cats, and that
now he would have to work on~the gov
ernor's farm to discharge the debt.

Cats was indicted late yesterday by
the Bradford county grand jury for cor

ty of money for casting his vote for the
granting of pardons while governor OF
the state of Florida. Specific charge
also was set forth in connection with
the Coleman pardon.
The investigation was made by the
Bradford county grand jury because the
state prison farm at which the prisoner
was serving his sentence is in Bradford
county.
Governor Cats was an ex-officio mem

does not possess full powers but may ex-
ercise veto in the granting of pardons
For the last two weeks a joint legis-
lative committee has been investigating
rumors that the former executive was
influenced by money in certain of his
official acts and that during his term OF
office he was guilty OF other unlawful
conduct.
