DENGUE FEVER IN
AND AROUND JEANERETTE.

Due to about $50 cases having
been reported to the State Board of
Health of Dengue Fever in our sis
ter town and surroundings, Dr. Dow
ling sent Drs. Scott and Bayer there
last Sunday to investigate.
Dr. Carstens, Parish Health OF
ficer, met with them, and while nc
deaths have occurred, it was deem
ed advisable that the public be warn
ed SO that measures can be used to
stop or check the epidemic and ad-
opted.
The local board of health circula
ted posters over the town with a
view of keeping the disease out o:
keeping it under control should it
/ invade the city. Destroy all mos
quitos and their breeding places, oil
cisterns, and screen all sick rooms,
should any person contract the dis
ease; is the advice given.
Dengue Fever.
Dengue Fever goes by a number
Of names, the most common of
which are Breakbone or Dandy
Fever, the former on account of the
severe pains and the latter because
Of the gait.
1t is quite prevalent in tropical
countries and often visits the Soutl.
ern States, prevailing now in parts
of Florida and Texas. 1t is just ap-
pearing in Louisiana.
1t is an acute, infectious disease,
accompanied by servere pains, often
an eruption, and especially a fever
with a characteristic remission or
intermission. The disease is self
limited and is rarely fatal.
The disease is transferable by
mosquitoes, the genus Culex has been
most frequently implicated. 1t is
claimed that species of stegomyia
may also transmit the disease. Il
requires from three to six days for
the patient to take down after being
infected. And person affected can
communicate the disease while he has
the fever, probably about three to
five days.
Treatment of the disease includes
the isolation Of the patient under a
bar or in thoroughly
screened room during the infectious
period, which is probably as long as
the fever lasts, and all mosquitoes in
the room should be killed.

GEORGE RIVIERE MAKES
BIG BOAT.

Wednesday afternoon quite bit
OF interest was created along Main
street by the passage of a big new
boat which was being hauled down
town by an automobile.
Enquiry developed that the vessel
was the production of George Rivierc
who had built the entire boat by him
self. He installed in it the engine
taken from his old Studebaker auto
mobile.
On Thursday the boat was launch
ed into the Teche, and it took to the
water like duck, showing perfect
balance in every particular.
1t IS quite large vessel, and is
provided with a spacious enclosed
cabin. No doubt George and his
friends will enjoy many an interest
ing trip in it, and the young man
is to be complimented on his work.

WHAT WILL NEW IBERIA DO
ABOUT FIGHTING THE ANTS?

Last week The Iberian carried al

, Since publication of this sugges-
ton that the Women's Council
Chamber Of Commerce, or some 9TH
er body get behind an Ant eradica-
ton campaign here, we have heard
numerous comments along the same
lines. There is really need for cor
certed action against this pest.
Among the nearby towns we not
ice Houma and Franklin already
with their work in full progress, and
this week Jeanerette has swung in
line.
The Jeanerette Coast-Herald of
September 9th carried the following
editorial announcement:
"THE ANT BATTLE.
"In day or two civic bodies of
Jeanerette are expected to inaugu-
rate campaign for the extermina-
ton of the Argentine ant, or to at
least secure a mitigation of the
harm caused by these pests.
owe have become so accustomed
to this domestic and horticultural
nuisance that we have become al
most resigned to its ravages, but
all progressive communities have
lately initiated movements for the
eradication of these ants and Jean
erette should keep abreast of the
times.
Thousands Of flowers, vegetables,
seeds and fruits are destroyed each
year by these Industrious insects as
well as large quantities of food.
Propagation Of these ants occurs
rapidly and the time is not far dis
tant when they will be as great
menace to the fruit and flower crops
Of the country as the boil weevil is
to the cotton culture.
Jeanerette was visited last week
by an agent Of the State 1Agricul-
tural Department for the express
purpose Of arousing civic interest in
this matter. 1t must be emphasized
that the government campaign is
conducted on strictly scientific lines.
No ant colony can be destroyed un-
less the queen and the male ant are
killed. Commercial poisons kill the
worker ant Immediately, thereby
warning the colony Of the danger.
The fatal place is avoided, but the
colony still continues to thrive and
multiply.
Besides the economic harm done,
the ant is also a carrier of infect
ious disease. After the South's sue
cessful war against the yellow fever
mosquito we should not allow anoth-
err insect carrier to spread infection

Scheduled, but Harding
Takes No Personal Part
Hughes Will Talk Here
Begins Tour at Boston on
October 80; iii Health to
Limit Hoovex's Efforts

WASHINGTON. Oct. 10 (By The AS
sociated Press), Although President
Harding is making no plans to take a
personal part in the political campaign,
every member of his Cabinet, except
one, according to statements to-day.
will take the stump between now and
Election Day to ask for a return of Il
Republican Senate and House.
Extensive trips are in prospect for
several members Of the Presidents Off
cial family. The effort, however. will
center in the East, New England and
the Middle West.
The Presidents friends say he sees
no necessity for eping personally to
the country for an Endorsement of the
Republican Administration. Although
he is taking part in campaign councils,
his associates say he is not likely
either to make any partisan speeches
or issue any statements asking for
election of Republicans. His views are
represented as coinciding with those
of his party managers, who are averse
to the issuance of party appeals from
the White House. The Cabinet, how
ever. with the single exception of Sec
retary Mellon, is preparing to do it's
share through speechmaking in the
fight for Republican victory in Novem-
ber.
The only definite speaking date made
so far by Secretary Hughes is at Bos-
ton, where he is scheduled to speak
October 80. In addition to full list
of candidates for House seats, Senator

for the following reasons:
:, Raises to Teachers
"Over half of the increase was rep
resented by one item, concur1ed in by
everybody in the state, Republican and
Democrat alike, namely, the increase
in the salaries of the teachers of the
state Of more than $21 1000, 900, from
which Governor Miller himself has
said that he would not deduct one
penny. Then trade statistics show
that during the second year of my ad-
mnistration was reached the absolute
highest peak of prices for food, cloth
ing and other necessaries of life which
had to be purchased by the state for
inmates of the institutions of the state
"In 1920 the people adopted an
amendment to the constitution read
justing the states payment to Sinking
Fund for the retirement of state bonds
AS result of the amendment Gov
ernor Miller was required to put only
S11,476,000 into the Sinking Fund,
whereas under my administration by
constitutional mandate / was required
to pay S15,5s4,oOo. This $4,10S, 600 Gov
ernor Miller has the effrontery to call
a saving.
