Marshall, Business Manager SUBSCRIPTION $1.50 Per Year in Advance, Layton Marshall, Editor and Proprietor at HOG PARASITES WEEKLY MEWS ANALYSIS Probably hogs are more affected by parasites, particularly the external type, than any other class of livestock. Infestation with either internal or external parasites results in lack of thrift, and the poor development of young pigs. Moreover, feed is too costly to give to parasites. Hog lice and mange are the two principal external parasites affecting hogs. Hogs suffering from lice or mange, or both, can be suspected by their persistent and vigorous rubbing against any convenient object. They may even rub off some of the hair and make the skin raw. Lice can be detected with the naked eye, but one needs a magnifying glass to see the common mange mite. The common methods of eradication for both lice and mange are: 1 dipping, 2 spraying, 3 wallows, 4 oilers, and 5 hand applications. Dipping is the most effective method and should be used whenever possible. When a dipping vat is not available, careful hand application of the chosen remedy may be practiced. Application may be made with a sprayer, brush, mop, or a piece of cloth. Many good pork producers have secured excellent results with oilers. Special care should be taken in distributing the remedy in a thin coat over the body surface; be sure to include the inside of the ears, the hanks, and between the thighs. The following remedies, when applied by hand, are effective for lice and mange control: 1 undiluted crude petroleum oil; 2 waste crankcase oil; 3 kerosene and lard mixed in the proportion of one-hapint of kerosene to one pound of Hogs that have been oiled should not be exposed to extreme cold or to bright sunshine too soon after treatment. Part of the annual loss of livestock from poisonous plants can be prevented by avoiding and by furnishing plenty of supplemental feed during periods of scarce pasture, according to L. V. Sherwood, assistant chief of crop production at the University of Illinois college of agriculture. These poisonous plants are in fence corners, in pastures and in the hay fields, often unrecognized until after they have poisoned the animals Human beings, as well as animals, may die from the effect of the plants. Other poisonotis plants are bull nettle, buttercup, wild cherry, cocklebur, com cockle, tall crowfoot, Dutchmans breeches, water hemlock, common horsetail, Indian turnip, jimson weed, Johnson grass, dwarf larkspur, black locust, whorled milkweed, black nightshade, oak, poke berry and over-grazi- Jack-in-the-pulp- it, ng Whittier. In all science error precedes the truth, and it is better it should go first than last That Vichy was implementing her German aid was seen in British dispatches which told of the sinking of two French flag vessels in the Mediterranean, one of them a 5,000-to-n tanker loaded with oil and headed for Tripoli. At the same time the British reported the sinking of an 18,000-to- n Axis liner, presumably Italian, carrying 3,000 German troops to the same destination. These dispatches pointed, enough, to proof of one of two things, possibly of both. Either there was being planned a strong increase in the battle of North Africa, or the Germans were moving in force to Dakar to create a strong base there. Either of these was disquieting enough, particularly the latter, from SENATOR WHEELER Asked for a new " peace pledge . whether they had been patrolled or convoyed by U. S. naval ships or not. But so far no American flag ships had been sent to the bottom, for they had been keeping out of combat zones. But that they would be sunk in the future no one seemed to doubt, and America interestedly, rather than anxiously, looked for that day to see what action would be taken. The first shots to be exchanged between American-fla- g naval vessels and German planes, surface raiders or submarine was still to be fired, but most observers expected that, following the Presidents talk that this firing was just a matter of time, and that it might not be long. The British reaction to the presidential address was prompt and jubilant. They accepted the pledge of American aid of a more complete and vigorous type than heretofore with enthusiasm, though the British man in the street, not conversant with Americas problems and political battlings, was rather befuddled by it all. OPMS: Report " Following a year of OPM functioning, Knudsen gave the country, at about the time of the Presidents epochal address, information which was more encouraging than anything that had come before. Mass production, said Knudsen, was really now beginning to roll, with planes in April 1,300, in May 1,600, and similar increases, some of them more spectacular, all along the line. Walpole.

Hamilton Fish (R.) of New York, has been ordered to active duty in the army. He holds the rank of colonel in the specialists reserve. Fish will go on duty with his consent on July 1, reporting to Fort Bragg, N. C., for training. CRETE: Takes Turn arms was that the American point of view, but the main thing was that it showed definitely that Vichy was becoming active again, this time plainly on the German side. It was brought to the fore again questions about the mystery of where he was, what he was doing, what manner of man he might be. Defections of French troops to the British standard in the Near East and crossings of the Syrian boundary by various groups to the Free French forces of De Gaulle were in the reports, lending color to the British claim that the Gailani government was about to d, , The Italians were getting nowhere in their general retreat in Ethiopia, and division after division was surrendering. But in spite of all this news, it was evident that the Petain government, possibly now dominated by Laval and Darlan or one of them, was getting more and more involved in the whole African and Near East campaign. This might have effects, not only on the present situation, but on the future disposition of national power after the war should pe ended. Particularly would it affect the diplomatic interchanges gofar-reachi- ng ing on between Vichy and States. the United The sudden Recall of Ambassador Winant to Washington for a conference with the President and the cabinet was just part of it. Vichy was in the midst of all that was moving on the continent, like a volcano emitting smoke after a long quiescent period. SHIP: For Ship Down to the bottom of the Atlantic ocean went H. M. S. Hood, 42,100 tons, with about 1,300 men aboard, victim of an unlucky hit from the guns of the Reichs great battleship Bismarck. Three days later, down to the bottom of the same Atlantic went the Bismarck, victim of a lucky hit on her propellers from a British torpedo plane. But the whole Bismarck story, observers generally felt, might change, if it had not already changed, the whole story of naval warfare. It brought the airplane into new prominence, and showed that this arm of navies had not been givpresent-da- y en the notice it deserved. conIndeed, the troversy got a sharper answer during the past' few weeks from the battle and the Cretan encounter of the Mediterranean British fleet with the Stukas than it had thus far in the war. 15-in- ch plane-battlesh- Hood-Bismar- ck ip the fight was Feen-A-Mi- Feen-A-Mi- ever-flowi- nt nt Feen-A-Min- To T Blind Impulse Unhappily, in the scales of human judgment the clear dictates of reason are too often outweighed by the blind impulse of the passions.

Thus again the airplane was the turn of the battle, for in the fight for Crete the British had the best of it on the sea, sending a reported 5,000 Germans to the bottom, and preventing the landing of troops while still landing some quantities of reinforcements . them-- . selves. On land, also, the British at the outset had the superior force, and all forces opposed to them had come in by plane. This, from the German standpoint, was the highly favorable result of the campaign, that an army, with no land approach, could still be landed and take an island away from occupying forces who had some time to prepare their positions. The formula? Simply to gain first, mastery of the air; second, to be willing to land men with modern weapons, even light tanks and light in such fieldpieces, quantities, regardless of losses, so that the enemy will finally be outnumbered; third, to keep a relentless bombing of the enemy from the skies during the battle, and an endless supply of ammunition, also from the skies, for the army. Data that Hitlers men were able to accumulate included the fact that artillery alone cannot make an airfield unusable, despite the hundreds of shell craters created. Evidently these can be repaired even under fire, and the field still used. Germans wondered (and British did too) whether this formula for the battle of Crete might not be transferred to Britain, and result in the capture of the British Isles. But the British felt that while the technique had worked in Crete, might it not fail over England, where could hardly be won by an enemy willing only to come over at night; where instead of a few thousands of soldiers, close to a million would have to be sent. The general British feeling was let them try it, we are ready and indeed the enormous British army of defense might well be straining for action, with the Tommies in North Africa Crete and the Balkans getting it all. sea-bor- AMBASSADOR WINANT His recall was just part of it.

The Reich, however, claimed that all would be over long before it was, and seemed inclined to minimize the cost of the fight.

The war course of the United States was more firmly charted by President Roosevelts fireside chat, yet the reactions abroad were considered as more important than that at home, enthusiastic though it was. For the President went all-oon the diplomatic limb for a victory for Britain and China, pledging a continuance of United States aid to the embattled democracies, anc promising wider action when and ii! needed The speech was believed to have settled the convoy question, the strike issue, the use of the navy in furtherance of a British victory, many other questions which had kept the people of this country in a nightmarish condition of not knowing what was coming next. Virtually all of the American editorial comment was favorable, though many of the editorial writers took the stand that succeeding events would show how much of the Presidents talk was words how much would be backed by action. Night following Mr. Roosevelts speech, Sen. Burton K. Wheeler of Montana took the radio to inform the nation regarding the stand of the opposition to the Presidents policies. He asked the President for a new pledge of peace. Rome newspapers cut the Gordian knot and stated that the U. S. was virtually in the war. German press took a more literal view of the Presidents speech, referred only to his freedom of the seas dictum, called the United States a nation attempting to be dictator of the seas. German government sources said: Our ships have been ordered to continue the blockade of Britain, to sink all ships coming within the combat zones, and these orders have not been rescinded and will not be.

PLEDGE: From FDR Summer Range Shelters Improve Poultry Flock Summer range shelters will pay as much on the investment as any other expenditure the poultryman can make, according to T. T. Brown, extension poultryman of North Carolina State college. Where more than 100 birds are kept, the shelter results in feed economy and healthier, more thrifty pullets. This assures the producer of a more economical egg production and a lower pullet mortality. The shelter should be placed on clean land where ample tender green feed and shade are available. The shelter that Extension Service poultrymen have found to be the most economical and satisfactory is with the eaves about two feet from the ground and the peak of the roof about 5 feet 10 inches. The shelter is 9 by 10 feet in size and will accommodate 100 pullets. The use of the summer range shelter helps to eliminate disease and intestinal parasites, puts vigor into the pullets, and makes for better egg size and production by properly developing the birds, Brown said. .

These physicians, too, approve every word of advertising you read, the objective of which is only to recommend Doans Pills as a good diuretic treatment for disorder w the kidney function and for relief of the pain and worry it causes. If more people were aware of how the kidneys must constantly remove waste that cannot stay in the blood without injury to health, there would be better un-etending of why the whole body suffers when kidneys lag, and diuretic medication would be more often employed.
