GREGORY, Author of "Home Course In Modern Agriculture," "Miking' Money on the farm," Etc. Copyright, 1909, by American Preai Auoclatlon THERE) are two general classes of parasites that affect ani mals external and Internal. Chief among external para sites are lice. These live In the balr next to the skin, feeding on It and causing the animal great annoyance. Not only that, but animals badly af fected with lice run down greatly In flesh, look bad and soon become mon ey losers for their owners. There are many kinds of lice affecting horses, cattle and swine, with a few species that confine their attention to sheep and goats. These lice ure of two kinds sucking and biting. The treat ment in much the same for both kinds, so that It will not be necessary to treat them separately. Lice are sometimes difficult to And, even when tbey are present In con siderable numbers. This Is especially true of long hatred animals. The neck, shoulders and root of tall are the places most frequently affected. Remedial For Lice. One of the best remedies for lice on bogs and cattle Is crude petroleum. That which has been prppared espe cially for this' purpose by having some of the kerosene taken out is best to use. It cun be purchased for about $5 a barrel. The oil can be applied with a spray pump or with a paint brush, care being taken to see that the animal is thoroughly covered. uniy one application is necessary, since the oil will adhere to the hair for two weeks or longer, killing the yonng lice us they batch. This treatment, becuuse of Its greasi ness, cannot be applied to horses that are being used uor to milk cows. For these kerosene emulsion Is a good remedy. It is prepared as follows: Dls soive oue-Duir pouuu or suap in one gullon of boiling water. Remove from lire and add two gallons of kerosene. Churn violently with a spray pump or paddle until a white, creamy mass is formed. This is prepared for use by adding ulne purts of water to one of the mixture. It can be upplled wltb a brush or rsg when only a few animals are to be treated. If many ure uffect ed they can be shut in a small yard ana sooiiea inorougniy with a spray pump. A second treatment at the end of eight duys will be necessary to kill the young lice that hatch. Any of the coal tnr dips con be used In the same way. Crude carbolic acid diluted wltb 100 parts of water Is also a good remedy for lice. These liquid applications cannot well be used In winter, and it Is at that time that the lice are the worst. They often become especially troublesome on colts toward spring. I'yrethrum, or Insect powder, dusted Into the balr will kill many of the parasites. To bacco dust may also be used. Sulphur and lard, mixed to form au ointment and rubbed Into the Infested places, are effective. The simple way to handle lice on bogs is to dip them. A dipping tank can be cheaply made by digging a hole the required plze aud putting a thick layer of cement on the Inside. The end at which the hogs come out should be sloping, with cleats to give I hem Fill. VII - -HO I liUI SK, I NI.AH(IU). a toe hold. The tank should be deep enough so that they will be completely submerged, lly having a chute leading up to the tunlf u herd of hogs can bo dipped In n very few minutes. Coul tar dips are as good as anything for this purpose. The dipping will have to bo repeated In eight to ten days.

Ticks and Bots. hi the southern parts of the United States and In Mexico cattle nre badly troubled with "ticks. Not only are these ticks Injurious for the damage they do themselves, but they also servo as carriers for Texas fever germs, be ing one of the most Important means of spreading this disease. Dipping is the most practicable remedy for cattle ticks. Dipping vats for cattle are ar ranged much the same as for hogs and sheep, only on n larger scale. The warble causes considerable trou ble with cattle. The eggs nre laid dur ing the summer on the shoulders and necks of the animals. As they hatch the mnggots make their way Info ttie mouth and from there bore through the llesh of the bm-k, which they reach early the next spring. 'Hie best reme dy Is to sill the warbles In the backs of the cattle by sipieev.lng them out and crushing tliein. Thus they are prevented from dropping to the cround aud developing Into Hies to lay eggs for next season's crop of warbles. Horses are considerably bothered by bot lllcs." The hot fly lays its' eggs on the front legs aud breast of t lie ani mal. As these hatch the larvae are taken into the mouth of the horse and find their way to the stomach, where they attach themselves to the walls. If present only In small numbers the effects are not noticeable, but In large numbers they seriously affect the health of the horse anil sometimes eveu cause death. As there Is no way to dislodge the hots after they have once attached themselves to the stom ach, the only way to combat them Is by prevention. This can be accom plished by scraping the eggs otf the horse's legs every day or so with a blunt knife or rubbing over them a rag wet with kerosene.

When a minister in authority gives instructions to a de voted minister under him, concerning the work to whioh he is appointed, are his. words more or less effectual if he calls God to witness?. Why or why not? What precisely did Panl mean by "freach the Word.'" What, if any, reason is there to be lieve that preaching or its equivalent can never be out or season.' Why is the duty to preach and prao tice troth, honesty, love, and the presence of.God never out of season? Why is every man under vital obli gation to be always on the qui vive to promote the temporal and eternal in terests of bis fellows?

State yonr views as to whether Paul was guilty of boasting here., or whether it was but an houest state ment that he had "fought a good tight," and that he had "kept the faith?" Is God hard to please, or is it pos sible for an ordinary, Jiouctt Christian to please God in all things, and to have the consciousness that be is so pleasing him? Verse 8. Was the crown of right eousness that Paul was going to re ceive, a gift of grace, or a reward of merit, and will it be the same case with bII the faitlifnl?
