of
Outlnreak of Screw Worms
Quite a number of outbreaks
screw worm have been reported from
Waterloo,'Cross Hill and Hunter town
ships. The screw worm is spread by a'
fly that attacks any warm-blooded
animal including man. A ^ farmer
should look over his livestock each
jday to see that there are no^^broken
places in the skin sufficient to cause
bleeding as the screw worm fly is at
tracted by blood at quite a distance.
The fly lays from two to three hun
dred eggs, in the wound which hatches
into a maggot within a period of eight
to twelve hours. They immediately
bore their way into the flesh of the
animal and feed in clusters so as to
form pockets in the wound. Unless
the animal is found ^d the destruc
tive maggots are kill^.'lt may die in
a very short time. If the maggots are*
'not killed, they become fully grown
in from four to six days and drop out
of the wound to the ground where
they change into flies in about ten to
fourteen days.
When screw worms are present
in the wound, there is a bloody dis
charge and a characteristic odor. For
all practical purposes, a bloody dis
charge^ sufficient evidence to iden
tify their presence. A hard swelling
usually accchfipaTHes a screw worm in
festation. Bloody discharge from the
mouth sometimes, indicates that t^he
lips or gums of the\finimal are infest
ed. This infestation oXthe mouth may
be brought about by the animal lick
ing the affected parts its body.
Common blow ,fly maggot^do not
by keeping a dose watch on the live
stock and applying pine tar oil to
wounds before the fly attacks the ani-
Tnal. Bei}zoLand pine tar oil may be
bought at the local drug stores.
- Outbreak of Grass Worms
Reports have reached the office
from the upper part of the county,
Greenpond section, of worms eating
foliage of plants. This worm belongs
to the grass worm family and may do
damage eating foliage of cotton and
corn as well as all other plants.
The worm may be controlled by
spraying or dusting with .calcium ar
senate, For spray, use one pound cal
cium arsenate to 50 gallons water. For
dust, use one part calcium arsenate
to one part lime, mixing thoroughly,
dusting as-if dusting for boll weevil.
It is very necessary to watch the
worm closely as it is likely to break
out in pastures, eating the glass from
livest(|:k. Of course poisons for the
worms must hot be used where there
is danger of livestock’ eating the
foliage.
Gin Tickeia
‘ All notices have been mailed to
farmers to call for their gin tickets.
Quite a number of ^^tickets remain in
the county agent’s office. Please bring
your card or look Up your number on
the application for gin tickets and call

.THE SUPREME COURT AND ITS
IPOWBR
The ne«i for a fedeiW jndicUiTr waa- of the current <4eventa through toe-
convention * of 1787. The, earlier at
tempts at an effective federation bad
been handicapped by the la^k of any
courFs having jurisdiction outside its
bwn' state. The scheme of “checks and
balances" which the framers of the
Constitution set up called for a judi
cial branch independent of and coequal
with the legislative and executive.
The number of justices of the su
preme court is not fixed by the Consti
tution. Originally there were seven.
The number wae increased to nine^in
the administration of President Grant.
Tb« Constitution does, however, pro
vide that all federal judges shall be
appointed by the president, and shall
hold office “during good behavior.”
The number of inferior federal courts
is left to congresf^ to decide.
The power of the federal judiciary,

stitution baa been kept in <^n4d-channel

And when it decides that a law is un
constitutional its decision is, in effect,
a declaration that congress has tried

ies, as well as to cases arising from
disputes between states, ur citizens of
different states, and those affecting
foreign interests.
The great power jof the supren^
court derives fro'm its duty oif inter
preting the Constitution. That it
might exercise that power to declare
an act of congress unconstitutional
was foreseen, and accepted as a mat
ter of course, by-the framers of the
Constitution. The federal judiciary
system was intended as a check upon
the legislative and executive branches
of the govemment,^o see that neither
of thetn exceeded the powers specifi
cally granted to them by the people in
the Constitution.
It has been largely through this
power of interpretation by the su
preme court that the power of the fed
eral government has grown from its
early beginnings. Instead of constant
amendment, to meet the inevitable so
cial and economic changes brought
interests than the 12-cent loan. I hope
they are right, but I am not convinced.

are, in effect, self Enforcing, for they
are, recognized by every court in the
land, federal or state, and by conr
gress and the executive, as the final
word,op the question at issuer When
the supreme court declares a law un
constitutional, that law ceases to exist.
How accurately the supreme court
reflects the changing public sentiment
of changing times is indicated by the
fact that only once has an amendpient

from an adverse opinion by the court.
That is the income tax amendment.

THE SICK ROOM
Granted that the sick room is inev
itable in your home and you have an
invalid to provide for, the sick room
becomes a matter of prime importance.
The recovery of the sick one depends,
X a large measure, upon how he is
quartered. ^
The duration of illness may of
coui'se^,vary from a few hours to
months X y^^ara. Hospitals have very
strict rule^ concerning room-decora
tions. But w'es^are talking about sick
ness in your hoqie.
Unless the phy^iician orders them,
clear the sick-roomW every things that
looks like a lace curtain. Between dos^
es of medicine, the sick pne finds the
hours long. He may enjoy looking out
of the bed-roonTi .,window and his vis
ion should not be dimmed, lie may
take special‘delight in watching the
rain fall on his favorite garden or-the
chickens in the back yard. Anything
about the place in which he may take
special interest will get his attention,
^lieve me, a day in a pleasant sick
room will equal in effect on most pa
tients, the most soothing- drugs.

Use only benzol and pine tar oil. The
benzol is 90 per.cent commercial.* The
pine tar oil should be acid free, de
hydrated. The pine tar oil is used as
a dressing for wounds and for repell
ing flies. Before these materials are
applied the portigi of the animal cov
ered with discharge from the wound
^ should be carefully cleaned. Wounds
'Containing blo^ and serum must be
ckrefully cleaned and’ swabbed with
cotton, because benzol does not readi

commercial l^nzol is made to the

the'benzol to reach the screw* worms.

made, and dry cotton is inerted in the
