THE SISTER'S FAITH
The following appeared a few days
ago in the "State Register" of Spring
field. 111.:
"Many are the stories of Henry
Ford and his popular automobile, but
Hillsboro is relating what it calls the
best of the season, and the facts in
the case are true. It happened In
one of the leading churches of the
city that the pastor took for the text
of his sermon, 'Better Church At
tendance.' "The pastor held that the automo
bile has taken more people away from
church than any other thing. He
concluded with the exclamation: 'The
Ford car has taken more people to
hell than any other thing that I can
mention!' Whereupon an old lady
in the congregation began to clap her
hands and moan, 'Praise the Lord!
Praise the Lord!'
" 'What's the matter, sister?' ask
ed the pastor.
" 'The Ford never went any place
that it couldn't make the round trip,
and I am sure that all of those peo
ple In hell will be back, she answered.
So praise the Lord!' "

DESTROY LICE ON CHICKENS
Sodium Fluorid Rldi Fowls Quickly of
All Parasites Dipping Is Most
Economical.
.Prepared by the Tnlted State Depart
ment ot Agriculture )
One application of sodium fluorid
will kill all lice of chickens, entomolo
gists tof the department of agriculture
have discovered. This Inexpensive
white powder, they And, will rid
fliM-k of all the seven common species
of chicken lice lu a few days. One
pound, costing only 40 or "50 nts at
the time of this writing. Is enough to
treat 100 fowls. If dusted on. If dis
solved In water and used as dip, the
same amount will go three times as
far. It is easily applied, economical,
gives Immediate results, and does not
Injure the fowls or the poultryman.
The complete effectiveness of the
smirum fluorid remedy and methods of
using It are discussed in Farmers' Bul
letin SOI of the United Stutes depart
ment of agriculture, "Mites and Lie
on Poultry." by F. C. Blshopp and 11.
P. Wood. The bulletin deals also with
mites, the night pests of chickens,
which require s different treatment.
I.lce are hltlng Insects that work by
day and are a serious foe In neglected
small flocks of general farms aud back
yurds.
Sodium fluorid sny It plainly to the
druggist or you ntsy get sodium eWo
rld, common salt, which It not only re
sembles In name but In appearance
may be obtained at most large drug
stores. The finely powdered commer
cial form Is cheaper and more easily
applied by the dusting method than
the fine, crystallized sodium fluorid.
To apply the material In dust form,
place It In an on vessel on a table,
and with one hand hold the fowl by
the legs or wings. With the other
hand place the chemical among the
feathers next to the skin, according to
what is known as the "pinch" method,
which proceeds as follows : One pinch
on the head, one on the neck, two on

the bnck, one on the breast, one below
the vent, one on the tall, one on either
tlilch, and one scattered on the under
side of each wing when spread. Each
pinch can be distributed by pushing
the thumb and fingers among the feath
ers as the material Is released. If the
chicken Is held over the vessel, the ma
terial which falls from the fowl during
the operation Is recovered.
The material also may be applied
by means of a stinker, but this method
has some disadvantages as compared
with thp "pinch" method. When this
method is used the amount of sodi
um fluorid may he reduced by adding
four parts of some finely powdered
material, such as road dust or flour, to
each pnrt of fluorid. The dust, while
not nolsonous. Is somewhat Irritating
I to the nose and thront. If allowed to
remnin on the skin In nny quantity for
any great length of time. It may cause
slight local Irritation. For these rea
sons, those dusting a large number of
chickens would do well to cover nose
and mouth with a dust guard or damp
cloth and to wash their hands occa
sionally. The dipping method Is more econom
ical, but among many poultry raisers
there Is a general sentiment against
the practice of dipping fowls, largely
because most of the dips contain ma
terials which discolor the feathers.
The sodium' fluorid dip, however, Is
harmless, and as compared with dust
ing Is more easily done. As It Is neces
sary thnt the fowls dry quickly, dip
ping Is most applicable In the Southern
states and to summer treatments In
the North. For lice on young chickens,
young turkeys, and, In fact, all newly
hatched or sick fowls, the application
of sodium fluorid In the dust form Is
recommended.
