By NL. M Black. Extension Poultry man. College o Agriculture. JcisyWNU i Service. Dealing with the lice and mite menace on the poultry farm is one of the many details which so greatly affect the efficiency, and conse- quently the profits, of poultry keeping in summer. When various parasites go unchecked, the birds' feed consumption and productiveness are seriousLice and mies are ly curtailed. two species which are easily recognized and on which war should be declared as soon as they are de-tected. To find lice, carefully inspect the skin on the abdomen of several birds. When present, lice may be noticed hurrying to take refuge beneath the feathers. Their presence may also be noted by the existence of egg masses on the shorter feathers about the head of the bird or on tiie nun leathers on tne at- - The late Guelielmo Marconi, fathrr of Treasury Henry Morgenthau (left) shown with Arthur DeSousa Costa recently.

Treat the roosts about a half hour before dark and repeat the treatment in a week to 10 days. Two such treatments should protect the flock for the rest of the summer. The principle of the treatment is that the heat of the birds' bodies volatilizes the nicotine, which penetrates the feathers and kills the lice. Unhatched lice eggs are unaffected by the treatment but will have hatched by the time the second application is made. Mites, unlike lice, do not live con- stantly on the bodies of birds. Their presence is detected by a close in- spection of the crevices about the roosts and nests where they may be observed as a grayish or reddish substance that moves powder-lik- e when closely watched. Hiding in such crevices by day these tiny parasites migrate to the birds' bodies at night and, after sucking blood, return to their hiding places.

Manufacturers discriminate against damaged or dirty fleece be- -j cause of the excessive shrinkage ' ' 1 which takes place when such wool : fir is cleaned. Shearing sheep on a clean floor or canvas will protect the fleece from dirt, grass or straw. Do not let the animal kick the fleece apart. It is hard to wrap a V' torn fleece as neatly as an unbroken one. Before a fleece is rolled, all tags, dirt and foreign material should be removed. Then the side3 and neck should be folded in and the entire fleece rolled into a compact ball, starting with the and ending with the shoulders. Never use binder twine for wrapping up a fleece, because the fibers work into the wool, do not take dye and appear in yarn and woolen fab' rics as coarse, colorless material. Buyers object to fleeces tied with such twine. Instead, use standard paper twine. Most fleeces should be wrapped two ways around, especial- ly if the wool is short.
