Use OF DIT Is
70 Be Made
With Caution

Insecticides containing DOT have
poisonous qualities. This does not
mean that their use is to be dis
couraged, for these new pest-kill-
ing preparations can contribute to
home comfort and help to prevent
certain insect-borne diseases. They
should, however, be used with eau
ton
Wide publicity given to DOT
made it household word long be-
fore it was available to civilians.
Extensive use by the Army during
the war has proved its effective
ness in the control of mosquitoes,
lice and flies; but it was used I'M
der the direction of qualified per-
sons.
Now that people will be using
preparations of DOT to an increas-
ing extent, the following DONT'S
are suggested to minimize danger
and eliminate possible accidents:
Don't use near an open flame or
pilot light. (Kerosene is often used
to carry DOT in solution.)
Don't smoke while spraying.
Don't remain in closed room i'm
mediately after spraying.
Don't inhale either solutions or
powesc1s containing DDfAf
Don't spray or use powder on or
near foods.
Don't spill on skin-if you do,
wash parts Immediately with soap
and water.
Don't use on cats.
Don't fail to read carefully all
directions and cautions on contain
ers.
Manufacturers give directions for
the safe use of their products and
war against any hazards that may
be involved
The public should not expect
miracles. DOT preparations are
not effective against all insects and
more concentrated solutions are
needed to kill some pests than 9TH
ers. Also, there is danger of de-
stroying desirable insects, such as
honey bees. Persons attempting to
free their houses of insect pests by
selves with the particular spray
or powder and find out how to
use it properly and what results
can reasonably be expected.

State Is Ready
To Join BANGS
Disease Control

Mississippi is ready to join other
states in a nationwide campaign
to control Brucellosis Bangs Di-
sease).
Forty eight hours after the ma
tional convention OF commissioners
of agriculture, in general session in
Memphis last week, urged uniform
control measures, the Mississippi
Livestock Sanitary Board had TAX
en- positive action toward that end.
The Board voted to send COM
mittee composed of Mr.. H. c. Sim
mons, state veterinarian and its
executive officer, c. E. HUMPHREYS,
Itta Bena, vice-chairman of the
Board; and Prof H. H. Leveck, pro-
fessor of animal husbandry at Mis-
sissippi State College, to the Ma
tional Livestock Association meet
ing in Chicago December 3-5 to
work. with representative from
other states in an effort to draw
up uniform plan of Brucellosis
control that will be operative in
all the states.
w w Downing, Kinds county
livestock grower and member of
the board, said it was the boards
opinion that much more progress
could be made in the control of
Brucellosis if all the states had
uniform measures.
Mr.. Downing added that if a sat-
isfactory national program could
be worked out in Chicago, Missis-
sippi Livestock Sanitary Board will
carefully study the proposed
changes and make necessary re-
Communications to the legislature
Not only the livestock industry
in Mississippi, but public health
authorities are waging an about
campaign against Brucellosis be-
cause of its threat to human health
in the form of undulant fever,
transmitted in raw milk from in
fected COWS.

Negro Community
Leads I'm Soil
Conservation

The leadership in soil conserva-
ton which Log Cabin an all-Negro
community in Georgia, which has
produced three Negro college pres
idents, has taken to help colored
farmers everywhere produce bet
ter crops is described in the No
vember issue of Soil Conservation,
a United States Department of Ag-
riculture publication
This little community is now
planning to extend its program of
stimulating soil and water conser-
walton throughout the Southland,
according to the author of the ar
ticle, 7. S. uie, regional conserva-
tor of the Southeastern Region of
the Soil Conservation Service.
Log Cabin community is situated
in the Piedmont Soil Conservation
District Recently the district spon-
sored a contest to determine which
farmer in the community had done
the most outstanding piece of con-
servation work. Prizes totaling 5000
were awarded by the Association
for the Advancement Of Negro
Country Life, headed by Benjamin
F. Hubert, president of Georgia
State College and son of one of the
community founders.
Winners Of the prizes were Ulys-
ses Heath, c. o. Brown, Isaiah War
rem and Melvin Beasley. The
awards were presented at the an
nual soil conservation jamboree in
the Log Cabin community. In pre-
senting the awards, President HUI
Der said: Land is the basis and
source of all wealth. We must learn
to love the land"
The article points out that the
community was founded by Zack
David andd Floyd Hubert shortly
after the Civil War. Within three
years they bought and cleared 165
acres. Today Negro farmers in the
area own $1,000 acres.
President Hubert exppreesss the
hope that the soil conservation con-
test will include farmers in eight
Central Georgia Soil Conservation
districts next year, making the jam
boree statewide. Ultimately he ex-
poets to develop a national soil
conservation observance for colored
farmers.

Hunters Warned
About Tularemia

If "daddy's concentrating to
get a little meat for the family
larder and stretch the red points
he should know how to take prop
er precautions against tularemia, a
disease which occurs among rab-
bits, squirrels, foxes and other an
imals, most commonly tularemia is
acquired by handling the carcass
of an infected rabbit or by eating
undercooked rabbit meat. Ticks
and biting flies also spread the di-
sease from animal to animal and
from animal to man.
A swollen, painful sore at the
point where the infection entered
the body is apt to be one of the
first symptoms Others are fever,
enlarged glands, chills, headache,
body pains, vomiting and prostra-
ton, which may occur from one to
ten days after infection. The fever
times is irregular enough to Sug-
get septic type of fever. Conva-
lescence is slow and drags along
with extreme weakness for several
months or even a year. Some vic
Tins manage to stay up and about
for most of the time but are able
to do very little or no work.
Prompt medical treatment hastens
recovery and reduces danger of
death which may occur in about
one out of twenty cases.
Now that the hunting season is
open, people are urged to take
these precautions againt tularemia:
Do not handle sick or dead wild
animals.
Shoot only healthy wild rabbits
Ia rabbit not lively enough to run
fast may be infected with tulare-
mia.
Wear rubber gloves while skin
ming or dressing wild rabbit and
while preparing it for cooking.
Destroy carcasses of rabbits on
whose livers or spleens are found
small white spots.
