more step would spring that hidden steel trap. Busters foot was in the air to take that step. If he should put that foot down it would rest squarely on the pan of the trap and spring it. But Buster didn't put that foot down just then. It was step that wasn't taken. And a good thing 1t was for Buster that it wasn't taken.

PREVENTING CHIGGER BITES
is BETTER THAN CURING THEM

When chiggers grow older they
reform, mend their ways, and cease to
be the seasonal source Of annoyance
and inconvenience to many victims
which was characteristic of their
flaming youth. A chigger, F. c. Bish-
opp of the United States Department
of Agriculture explains, is the first
or larval stage of large red vel
vety mite which is entirely harmless
when mature. Contrary to the popu-
lar impression chiggers do not bur-
row into the skin and require ex-
traction for relief: The chigger, min
ute in size though it is, is capable of
injecting considerable quantity of
poisonous material into it's host, and
it is this poison that causes all the
discomfort, the persistent itching that
follows chigger bites.
Destroying the chiggers does not
seem possible, the Bureau of Entom-
ology says, in areas which are COW
cred with woods and underground,
but preliminary studies by the bureau
indicate they can be checked in the
vicinity of homes and camps by clear
ing away the underbrush, vines, and
weeds from such areas, keeping the
grass cut close, and by following these
measures with applications of flow
ers of sulphur or very fine busting
sulphur. 1t appears, the bureau says,
that from to 10 pounds of sulphur
scattered over an ordinary city lot
will give a high degree of control,
sometimes from single treatment,
but it is usually best to repeat the
application two or three times at in
tervals of one to two weeks. This is
especially necessary when the appli-
cations are followed by rain.
Humans are by no means the only
victims of the chigger. Normally they
feed upon small wild animals, includ-
ing snakes and lizards and they may
attack birds. They are pest of con-
siderable Importance to poultry, and
are especially troublesome on late
Matched chicks and turkeys. Heavily
infested chicks soon become droopy
and drowsy, later may show symptoms
of paralysis, and quite frequently die
from the attack within a few days.
Early Matching usually prevents loss
es of poultry. Late matches should
be kept out of high grass and brush
when chiggers are prevalent. The
use of sulphur as described gives
some protection, but usually if the
chicks are brooded by a hen and al
lowed free range they will become in
tested. On chickens the chiggers are
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1928-06-27

inclined to attach in dense masses on
the parts of the body less covered by
down or feathers, and light busting
with sulphur will give some relief.
No method has been found for CIV
ing an entirely satisfactory protection
to people. When going into places
where chiggers abound, the bureau
advises that it is well to wear high
top shoes over the trousers, or leath-
er leggings. busting the body and
underwear with flowers of sulphur
will give high degree of protection
from attack.
