Pooling Bots

Bot flies are not active after the
first killing frost, but the yellow nits
on the hairs of a horses legs are
eggs which they have laid and from
which future bot flies will develop.
If warm water is applied to them,
they are fooled" into thinking"
they are in the animals mouth or
digestive tract and hatch out into the
cold world to die. The water should
be about los degrees Fahrenheit.
Tiny bots or larvae already pres
ent in the mouth and tongue and
which later find their way to the
stomach, must be handled in a diff
ferent way, the department points
out Carbon disulfide, administered
only by trained, experienced vet
erinarian, is effective against bots
found in the stomach. This treat
ment is usually given any time dur
ing the months of December, Janu-
airy or February.
Horses that harbor bots in the
stomach are more susceptible to col
ic and other digestive disturbances
than those free from the parasites.
They also require more feed and
have less staying power.

Victory Ship Benefits
From Greater Speed

Chief advantage of the new Vic
tory ship over the Liberty ship is
the factor of speed. This will en-
able the Victory ship to do more
work in a given time. Additional
speed will also serve to make the
new ship more elusive target for
preying enemy submarines and
planes.
Production on 339 Victory ships is
now in progress and deliveries of
these vessels will start in the early
summer of 1914.
Major differences in the specifca-
tons of the two ships lie in the
power plants. The Victory ship is
powered with a geared turbine en-
CINE of 5000 horsepower or more,
while the Liberty ship has a steam
reciprocating engine of approx
mately $500 horsepower. The speed
of the Liberty ship is about II knots,
while the Victory ship will do Is
knots or more. On the 6,590-mile
trip to Australia, the new Victory
ship will save 542 days sailing time
over the Liberty ship record.
Cargo tonnage on each ship is
identical; the Victory ship is a few
feet longer than the Liberty, trife
broader as to beam.

Common Mango Infectious;
Damages Hogs Skin

Veterinarians point out that there
are two kinds OF hog mango, sar-
coptic and demodectic. The sarcop-
tic form, known as common mango,
does most of the damage. The mites
burrow into the skin, first around
the head and neck and from there
spread to the shoulders, back, sides,
and hams, causing Inflammation and
swelling of the skin tissues. The
skin becomes thickened and devel-
ops wrinkles and folds. The in
lection is contagious and spreads
rapidly in a herd when hogs are
closely confined.
Sarcoptic mango responds readily
to treatment on the farm. Dipping
in medicated bath is the most
thorough method of killing the mango
mites. Treated animals should pref
erably be moved to clean quarters,
the veterinarians say, or the old en-
closures should be thoroughly
cleaned of all litter and then dis
infected.
In cold weather when dipping is
undesirable, hog oiler or even
burlap sack fastened around large
stout stake and soaked with crude
petroleum or crankcase oil enables
hogs to treat themselves with fairly
good results as they rub against it,
but this method will not eradicate
all the infection.

State of Franklin

In 1772 North Carolina offered to
cede some of its western lands to
the United States, but the inhabi-
tants of this area were of different
mind and, aggrieved, determined to
establish their own state. This they
named FARMLAND, later Franklin,
in honor of the great Philadelphia
statesman. This awoke in North
Carolina a desire to regain the lands
and for three years two govern
ments tried to rule the territory. FL
nally North Carolina prevailed, and
the governor of Franklin, John Sew
Ter, was arrested for high treason.
During his trial he escaped. but
later, when peace was restored, be-
came a senator. In 1890 the lands
were finally coded to the United
States and six years later became
the state Of Tennessee.

Reef ON Farm

Perhaps the oldest known coral
reef in the world is on Vermont
farm.
On a country road about two miles
from the center of a Lake Cham
plain village is a farm where the
coral reef runs through pasture
and for nearly a mile is plainly
traceable. At some points the reef,
remindful of tropical isle, bulges
through the earth's surface maxi
mum of seven feet high.
Biologists from throughout the
world have studied the curious for
nation and conclude from its make
up that it is the worlds oldest coral
formation. 1t indicates, they say,
that this northern Vermont region
once was submerged in the sea.

There are thirty-nine Protestant
missionaries still in Japan, some of
them in internment camps and some
of them relatively free to carry on
their ministries, according to the
Foreign Missions Council of North
America. OF this total, ten are Ger
mans, seven ar Firms, six are Brit
ish, one is Canadian, and fifteen are
Americans. The Germans and Firms
are free, for Japan is not at war
with their nations. OF the Americans,
Canadians and British, nine are in
termed in Sumire Camp, three (wom-
en) are interned in their homes in
Maebashi, and eight are free.

Letter To The Editor
An Open Letter:


 1 believe the taxpayers and citizens of Kodiak merit an ex- planation as to the reasons for my resigning from the common council of the city.
 l take this opportunity to thank you for the support which gave me more votes at the last election than any other council man.
 It has been my desire to act ga nearly fair and reasonable as possible in all things pertaining to city business However, it Is at present my firm conviction, with due respect to everyone concerned. that the present city government is failing to do the things which you as the people of the city of Kodiak put them in office to do.
 They sit on your council and say, let's not do anything our selves let the next council do it, it's only two or three months until election" instead of doing things, acting upon things, that are vital to all concerned right now. Things such as city offices being filled at huge salaries; men working on roads, filling holes with trucks rented by the hour, or yard, and then next day hay ing graders grading the same streets and roads.
 The question comes to me, why are these things permitted2 Is it because of promises made by some councilman to some one? It is that they wish to spend because it is taxpayers money? Are they afraid to step on someone's toes? Or are they ignorant of the fact that there must be some time an end to all this nonsense, and get down to

Shipping Claims Rule Explained

The War. Shipping Adminis- i itration has called to the atten- tion of all shippers the part of the Carriage of Goods by Sea Act, which covers claims, as follows:
 "Unless notice of loss or dam age and the general nature of such loss or damage be given in writing to the carrier or his a. gent before or at the time of re- moval of goods into the custody, such removal shall be prma facie evidence nf the delivery by the carrier of the goods asN de- scribed in the bill of lading.
 "If the loss or damage IS not apparent, the notice must be given within 8 days of delivery.
 "Said notice may be endorsed upon the receipt for the goods gwen by the person taking de- livery thereof.
 "The written notice need not be given if the state of goods has at time of receipt been the subject of joint survey.
 s'In any event the carrier and the ship shall be discharged from all liability unless suit IS within 1 year after de- livery of the goods: Provided, that if a notice of loss or damage is not given as provided, that fact shall not effect or prejudice the rlght of the shipper to bring suit within l year after delivery of goods.
 "In the case of any actual or apprehended loss or damage the carrier and receiver shall give all reasonable facilities to each other for inspecting and tallying the goods.''
 The carriers representing the War Shipping Administration are not authorized to waive thls statute snd even though claims filed are not adjusted within a year they become void Ii the claimant does not commence suit within the statutory limit of one year from the day the shipment was delivered or should have been delivered.
