The part that he plays as a carrier of dis eases to animals only recently has been recognized, according to the zo ologists of the Department of Agricul ture, who believe that when this is bet ter understood, rural ordinances and laws which lessen this danger will gain the support of the community.

The runs across an infected mey chu ue salted as they come from Hi8 shell, using plenty of butter and salt. The skins become brown and are easily removed when the peanuts are cooked.
