HUNGRY MICE SAVED COYOTES I
t
Rodents Interfered With War on j
Pests in Wyoming by Eating
the Poisoned Bait
c
Hungry mice in Wyoming have re- c
eently become such frequent visitors ?
to poisoned bait spread for coyotes s
that the work of the poison squad c
seeing to kill coyotes has been seri- t
ously interfered with, according to a t
?~ . V. _ KUl?,.l?ol en rear ITnlfprf
rfpuii iu nit; uiv/iu^ivui cm <vj, ??- ? j.
States Department of Agriculture.
"Owing to the extremely warm '
weather," reads the report, "coyotes v
stayed in the rough and brushy places, a
which made it necessary to put the t
poison bait in and around these places, f
It was noted that mice Interfered ma- ?
terially by carrying away and eating
the poison baits before the coyotes
could get to them.
"Poisoned grain was used in an effort
to kill off the coyotes, but in many 1
cases there was no end to mice comim; 1
Into poison stations." S
Notwithstanding these difficulties. h
the five men assigned to poison work .
made a satisfactory record, says the .
Weekly News Teller. The total number
of animals killed during one month '
by government hunters in the district 1
is reported at 542.
Higher Education for Dogs. t
A college for dogs has been opened f
up in Westchester. It is a place ;
where dogs are taught to live in a *
crowded city. They are taught the '
art of ."heeling," which is to follow 1
closely at the master's heels. They are 1
also tnunht to eat from only one hand
?the hand of the master. Then they
learn how to sit in the corner quietly
when company comes, how to cross the
streets at the proper signal and how
not to growl when they see some other
dog. The college course lasts for three
months and the proprietor guarantees e
a perfectly trained dog in that time or c
money?the fee is $100?returned.? s

EGARDIXG BOLL ROT AND
DELIXTED COTTON SEED
Irector Bnrre Soms op Work of Experiment
Station.
In view of the recent newspaper
iscussion of boll rot and the sulhuric
acid method of treating cot>n
seed, and in order that the farinra
may not be confused or inadver>ntly
misled by any of these articles,
le following conclusions based upoa
tore than ten years' study by the
outh Carolina Experiment Station
re given.
The Station's study of anthracnose
r boll rot dates back to 1908. The
rogresa made has been reported connuously
in Station publicnt?ons
nee tnsi naic. i ut? iLAiciidiua ice
through its "Weekly News
otes" has kept the farmers informI
as to the practical results obtaind.
It may be well at this time to reeat
some of the recommendations
lready published.
The treatment of cotton with conentrated
sulphuric acid was first
?sted by ireotor Duggar of the
.labaina Experiment Station in 1011.
le found that it reduced the infecion,
but not enough to control boll
ot. Our results agree with his. In
909 we discovered that the anthracose
fungus actually penetrates the
eed before they are mature and rerains
alive within the seed until
lanting time the following spring,
'his important discovery that the
ungus is carried within the seed was
nnounced and fully described in the
908-09 annual report of the Station
nd has served as the basis for th
n
ontrol measures which were developd
and which have been published
rom time to time.
Investigations have been conducted
ising different chemicals and gases,
lifferent mc.hpds of hocting u;:j
rying, etc., continuously up to the
resent time. None of the methods
ret devised have been effctive for
radical use in completely eliminatng
the fungus which living in the
eed, perpetuates the boll rot.
The Station does not recommend
he treatment of seed with concenrated
sulphuric acid to control boll
ot alone. The Station has emphasizd
these methods through the pracice
of which the disease has been
argely eliminated from the state, re.
ulting in the saving of millions of
lollars to the farmers. Where the
areless practice of planting diseasd
seed is persisted in, the disease
till causes a serious loss. As indiating
the present limited extent ot
oil rot, we were able in the fall of
920, after diligent search with the
elp of the county agents, to locate
>nly one field in the state from which
ve could rot for use in our laboratory
ind obtain seed heavily infected with
oil field experiments. In spite of the
tv,o? ooPft nr#? hrnueht in to the
station every year from all over the
tate for planting in our tests, only
>nce have we got hold of infected
;etd and at no time during the past
hree years has the percent of cotton
mils in any field of the Experimer
station or College Farm affected with
inthracnose boll rot exceeded one
jercent Usually no infection ha
>een found except in experimental
)lots where we purposely planted
liseased seed.
Any one desiring information as
o the concentrated sulphuric acid
reatment of cotton seed will find
'till directions in our "Weekly New
Cotes" of April 2, 1921. Additionr
icientiflc information of special increst
may be had frceni Station Buletin
No. 164. of April, 1912; Annua"
Report of 1912; Bulletin No. 1S4 r

teports of 1919, 1920 and 1921. Any

CANNIBALS IN BELGIAN CONGO
Government Has Not Yet Fully Suo?
ceeded in Stamping Out
|. the Practice.
This particular section of the Belgian
Congo* through which we were
passing hud been closed to white truvi
elers for many years because of the
rampant cannibalism of the natives.
We have been unable to detect any
signs of cannibulistic practice In the
I umwatte ruled by Kabongo or ilutom:
bo Makulu, although trusted carriers
still often disappeared overnight from
i caravans in these regions and feasts
always took place with suspicious seI
quence in some village near by. FurI
ther on to the north, where the strong
! arm of the white man's law has not
yet readied, cannibalism is still in its
palmy days, and slaves are fattened
for the regular feasts of the year.
I Here the government lias not yei mi
lowed white men to penetrate.
Even in the district through which
we were now passing a Belgian trader
had been attacked only a few months
before. Shortly after leaving the village
of a chief?Mpereta?who had
received us with extreme cordiality,
we came upon a relic of the recent
history of the chief and his village.
It was a phallic emblem post decorated
with the blenched skulls of small
children. It had escaped the notice of
government troops who have orders
to destroy them.
At several villages we found the oh
sort of Bachokwe natives still avowed
ly hostile to all white people, who had
given up open cannibalism only when
they had to. The people and their
chiefs refused to have anything to do
with us, although they did not open
hostilities. On such occasions we
quickly changed our plans as to setting
up camp for the night. The trail
ahead seemed strangely attractive ,1ust
then, even to our tired carriers.?Helen
E. Springer in Scrlbner's Magazine.
Walking to Walk.
For a long time in this country
walking attracted less attention than
any other outdoor pastime on the
, calendar. Indeed, once upon a time
la man who felt like going for a
; tramp simply put on his hat and started
j off. He carried no advertisement of
I his' game such as Englishmen did with
' their knickers, heavy shoes, distinctive
hats and stout walking sticks. The
I American simply went walking to
walk. Those times are passing. Walk
lng is coming into the recognition it
deserve. Hiking is fashionable. Cluba
are formed to promote lL?^New Yort

In one of the "Weekly News Notes'

"Delinted seed can be planted morr

Delinted seed may be spaced in any

seeds to a hill and spacing the hills
at the distance it is desired to leave

may be saved in chopping."
