UNION COLLEGE NOTES

Dean Ryder was able. after a long
struggle with flu, to go to his Pine
vile work Sunday.
We have had a real treat by hav-
ing DR.. Franklin with us for a solid
week.
DR.. wilkins, OF the Endowment
force. ran in for a day or two the
first of the week.
The past week brought us to the
end of the winter term with its ex-
aminatiOns. Reports are not in yet
but we suppose of course everyone
passed.
The coming of the spring time al
ways takes a few students home for
work on the farms and this year is
no exception but their places have
been filled by new students coming
for the spring terms work.
A large number or swimming
students passed the minimum test,
which is to swim the length of the
pool on the back, on the face, and to
dive from the diving board. The
pool is about the most popular place
on the campus. Every student should
make the most of the opportunity
offered at Union to learn swimming
and to learn it right. Miss Cora Sc
vier is an exceptionally strong teach
er of the sport. An enthusiastic
class of ladies from the town is put
ting in full time two evenings a week
The Debate--On Friday evening
of this week the Negative team from
Pineville will meet Unions Afirma-
tive team in a debate on the three
per cent Dillingham; Bill for regulat-
ing immigration. The boys have
been hard at work for several weeks.
Come out and give them the inspir-
alton of a good audience The small
fee of ten cents will be charged for
admittance to help defray the ex-
penses of the debate.
Miss Flossie Turner, our regular
reporter, is still unable to return to
her school work on account of the
flu.
The College Students gave them
selves a jolly party Monday night in
Speed Hall parlors.

which emerge from eggs present at the
time Of treatment
Sodium fuorld can be obtained in
two forms known as commercial, and
as chemically pure. Both Of these
are In the dry state, the first being
dry powder and the second in small
crystals, somewhat lumpy. While the
chemically pure material is effective,
IL is not so easily applied by the dust
Ing method as the more finely pow
dered commercial form. and further.
more, it costs more. The commercial
grade should contain 90 to 0S per cent
sodium tiuorid.
This material is the sodium salt of
the chemical element known as nuorln,
and hence is a compound very similar
tu ordinary table salt. which Is known
chemically as sodium chorid In ask.
ing for sodium luOrld, therefore. 1t Is
important that the name, "nuorid," be
carefully stated to the druggist.
If the proper methods are followed
remarkable control is obtained. One
thorough application Of sodium fluorid
to all fowls will destroy completely
all the lice present. II is essential,
however to see that treatment is
thorough. and that every fowl is treat
cd. 1t may be applied in two forms
as dry dust and as dip. In the
dust form the action of sodium fluOrld
Is comparatively slow; hence, II exam
ined the next day after treating, or
even two or three days later few
lice may be found, but the material
persists, and after four or FIVE days all
lice disappear. 1t kills, too, all lice
emerging from eggs on the feathers.
For best results small amounts of the
material should be placed on different
parts of the infested fowls.
Specialists have found what they
call the pinch method to be entirely
effective against lice, and to have the
advantage Of economy OF time and ma
terial. The material is placed in an
open vessel on n table, the fowl Is
held by the wings or legs in one hand,
while with the other hand small
pinch of chemical is placed among the
feathers next to the skin in this
way: One pinch on the head, one on
the neck, two on the back. one on the
breast, one below the vent, one on
the tail, one on either thigh, and one
scattered on the underSide of each

In this way the amount OF material
ordinarily lost Is recovered.
The material may be applied with
a shaker. but this method has disad-
vantages when compared with the
pinch method. The material Is shaken

other A second person is needed to
hold and turn the fowl. In this
method the amount OF sodium fuOrld
used may be reduced by adding some
finely powdered material such as road

into the open as fast as busted TO
prevent possible injury from breath
ing the dust. For young chickens,
young turkeys. and Indeed all newly
hatched fowls the busting method Is
recommended rather than dipping.
This applies also to sick fowls.
The common objections to dipping
poultry to rid them Of lice have been
overcome BY the specialists by using

than the combined New Eng
land states, except Maine, with
New Jersey thrown in for good
measure. Its name means
"Penn's Woodland" and was so
named by King Charles II, who
granted this territory to the
Quaker, William Penn, and !
named it in commemOratiOn Of
Penn's father, who had been a
distinguished admiral and on
terms Of peculiar friendship and
intimacy with the royal family.
This grant was made in lieu of

miral Penn. On this basis 1t
originally cost about 81 square
mile.
Pennsylvania has assumed
such an important place among
the states that 1t Is often called
the Keystone state. This term
was probably derived originally
because her name was carved
on the keystone of the bridge
over Rock creek, between Wash 4

accordingly has 38 presidential
electors.

gated In Indian territory, a large
tract of some 10000 square miles
that had been used largely by
the Indians as pasture for their
cattle and horses. This was
called Oklahoma, a word mean

all over the country to obtain
farms or places for business. On
the stroke of the hour, bugles

at many places at which claims
could be filed for the farms or
city lots, and all that day these

were staked out and Oklahoma
City and Guthrie were well ON

Thus was developed this re-

session of the United States as
part Of the Louisiana Purchase
in 1903 and which was set aside
for so many years as Indian
country. Previous to the fOrma-
