 the metal to IT cents, which is ex- 'pected early this year. Such lev
 el would compare with a price of l4 cents at the end of last year, and an average price of 1917 cents for 1927. It is estimated that each advance of one cent a pound in the price of copper adds to the annual share earnings of various copper companies at something like the

Parasites Undermine Health
and Sap Vigor of Birds.

prepared by the United states Department
of Agriculture-)
Care exercised in keeping poultry
yards clean and in sanitary condition
has a double function in keeping the
flock clear of parasites that undermine
the health and sap the vigor of the
birds. The injury by mites, lice, f1eas.
and other parasitic organisms is some
times obvious. but it also happens
that some insects and other small
creatures are carriers or intermediate
hosts of some of the internal para
sites of poultry
For example, according 10 special
lists in the United States Department
of Agriculture, one variety of round
worm must develop for one stage of
its life outside the poultry il affects.
The roundworm lays its eggs within
the chicken and they are eliminated
in the droppings. They will not ma
ture if picked up by fowl. They do
mature If water flea picks up the
eggs. Then if a hen takes in the wa
ter flea with her drinking water the
round-worn parasite of the flea de-
velops into a poultry parasite.
Many similar examples are known
and others are suspected. The grass
hopper, for instance. has recently been
shown to transmit az least one impor-
tant parasite of domestic poultry

Magnetic Hills

There is a hill outside of Los An.

is that there is a meteoric body in the

magnetic force is imaginary and cars
do not climb uphill without any power

The results also show that peanuts
with only mineral supplements are not
efficient for pigs in the early stages of
growth. The addition OF tankage

husbandry division of the bureau of

nection with the study of peanuts in
the soft-pork problem.
Because many young pigs are COM

whether the prevailing method Of
feeding was producing the best pos
sible results. Three experiments were
undertaken in which different rations
were compared. In the first expert

without. In the second experiment
he rations were the same as in the
first except that the peanuts were I'M

similar TO the second except for a
change in minerals.
The results are noteworthy in show

from the furrow and helps fill up the
