GOOD NEWS--M0re Rayon
And Cocoa Coming

RAfON INCREASE
Good news to the gals is WPB's
announcement that there will be
an increase in the amount of rayon
available for manufacture of hosiery
and other items which were former
ly made from silk and nylon. With
this extra rayon, hosiery mills will
be able to make one additional pair
of stockings for every seven they've
been making.
TILE TROUBLES
Manpower shortages, and the fact
that tile manufacturers are consid-
cred essential, have lead to a short
age in tile that will be felt by
Autumn. With production reduced
to 20 percent OF the normal volume,
manufacturers are now voluntarily
simplifying all tile patterns.

fever Is much commoner in other
countries than here, and tularemia
is associated most directly with rib
bits; whereas, wood tick fever and
Colorado tick fever are much milder
in nature than the dreaded Rocky
Mountain spotted kind.
INSECTS LIFE CYCLE
Like all ticks, the one RESPONSE
BILE for Rocky Mountain spotted
fever sucks blood, and lays eggs
on the ground in late spring and
early summer. 1t is very hard
organism, and takes two whole
years in which to mature. In it's
legged larval stage, it climbs
up vegetation, and attaches itself
to passing small animals, rodents
especially. After feeding, it drops
off, and reappears the next year
with eight i1gs. This creature also
feeds on rodents, and after a period
of inactivity, issues forth as an
adult tick.
This tick then seeks a larger host,
like man, attaches itself, sucks
blood and goes through a process
Of fertilization ending in laying
eggs. 1t is in this last stage Of
the completed cycle that the tick
can transmit infection acquired
along the way from smaller hosts
than man.
Cases of Rocky Mountain spot
ted fever begin to appear in April,
and their number rises steadily
through June, to drop off in July
and August. The onset of the dis
ease takes place anywhere from
three to nine days after the tick
bite that carries the infection. From
l8 to 81 davS the disease runs its

course, and the mortality OF those
affiliated is relatively high.
PREVENTION OF FEVER
There are several ways to pre-
vent Rocky Mountain spotted fever.
The infected tick must feed for
several hours before it can transmit
the disease; therefore, if the skin
is inspected frequently, and the
ticks are promptly removed, the
chances of infection are sharply re-
duced.
Even in the most heavily in
tested areas, the incidence of in
fected ticks is very low. Of course,
clothing that is tight at the ankles,
wrists and waist, and precludes the
entrance of the tick should be worn.
Two vaccines are now available
for those who must frequent in
tested areas, but vaccination as a
general public health measure would
be impractical. The vaccination
must be reported yearly. Recently,
an antiserum has been given to
those who develop the disease, and
if administered early appears to be
OF benefit in reducing mortality.

TEST new WAY OF
MARKETING MEAT

New York, July 10.-UP)-Fif-
teen thousand pounds Of beef, lamb,
veal and bacon went on sale at a
Washington market retail shop to-
day in a test of plan to relieve a
shortage here by delivering meat
direct from packer to consumer.
Samuel Lotstein of the firm of
Sosnowitz and Lotstein, independ-
ent packers who undertook the ex-
pertinent said that well always
have meat here if the OPA doesn't
find some way to stop u.s." He said
his firm had opened another such
market to Bridgeport, Conn.,, earlier
in the week.
At the solo meat products stall,
where the meat went on sale, buy
ers gathered in such numbers that
a special police detail was assigned
to keep them in line.
