MASSEBEAU Lice On Cattle Easy To Control Columbia, Jan. 30.?With inexpensive, effective, and easily applied remedies available, no cattlo owner should allow his herd to become un- : thrifty because of lice, says J. It. | Hawkins, extension animal husband-! man with headquarters here. "Cattle lice become particularly troublesome, during the winter months and cause considerable loss due to unthrlftlness and failure of cattle to1 make a satisfactory gain in weight \ or in milk production on the feed supplied," Mr. Hawkins explains. "Hecause of the thick winter coat, lice have a favorable opportunity to mul-' tiply and are seldom noticed until cattle begin to lose the hair around the neck and shoulders through rubbing on feed racks and posts. "A good insect or louse powder applied in an area three to four inches wide along the back from head to tall and dusted into the coat of hair by rubbing with a brush or the hand will prove effective. Most advertised well known brands of louse powder are satisfactory but the most deirable are those containing a combination of pyrethrum, derris, and naphthalene powder. Powder containing sodium fluoride such as is cortmonly used on poultry should not be used on cattle ' as this product is poisonous to them." For applying the powder Mr. Hawkins suggests confining the cattle College Boxer Dies After Fight Lexington, Va. ?

Jack was brought to the Chlktren's Home at three months of age. sickly baby?weighing six pounds. His mother had died and the woman who was caring for him did not know how to feed a baby and did not want him anyway. The first few weeks he was with us we feared we could not save his life. We asked a Camden physician, who is always ready to help up, to take him in charge. He changed his food and changed it again, until he found something to agree with him and Jackie began to gain. From that time he throve and became a happy, healthy baby?so winning that a childless home sough? him and he has now become the center of that home. His foster parents adore him anil are proud to send us his smiling picture. Ho will have a good education and every chance. Is it worth while? Admiral Cary T.

HEALTH INSURANCE GIVES BRITTON FREE MEDICAL ATTENTION IxhuIoii, Jan. 22.?Million* of men and women In Great Hritain, who work for their livelihoods, are spared the dread of doctors' hills, medicine costs, and the loss of wages while confined by illnesses. The National Health Insurance Act, amended at various times since the original one was passed by Parliament in ltHl, has taken care of tens of thousands of beneficiaries. This form of ptate health insurance orlgii * nated in Germany under the former Kaiser WUhelm Second, but was carried much farther by Hritain under inspiration of Lloyd George, then Chancellor of the Exchequer. He did not do so without some rather violent opposition. Jn the first place, there were in existence all over Hritain vurious so-called "Friendly Societies," organizations of men and women formed to aid members stricken with illness. These societies anticipated ruin if the law passed, but eventually the scheme was evolved to work largely through the societies. The worker is permitted to Join a society from the government's approved list of sound organizations. His insurance payments would be made through governmental agpncles, but the approved society or societies would administer the benefits, keep the records. The Ministry of Labor thus was saved the cost of administration. The societies pay operation expenses out of the fundB collected. Other opposition came from the medical profession. The law provided that in each city, town and district there should be a panel of doctors who volunteered for the work. They were to attend insured persons without fee, being paid an annual sum for each insured person assigned to their care. The gigantic scale of this health insurance is Indicated by the latest figures. In 1934, the last reported, 12,264,900 men and 6,105,300 women were insured, a total of 18,360,200. Contributory payments by employers and employed were more than $130,000,000. In that same year more than $39,000,000 in sickness benefits, $30,000,000 in disablement benefits, $7,500,000 in maternity benefits, and $50,000,000 in medical benefits were paid. With some exceptions; every employed person between the ages of 16 and 65 is compelled to take out the state health insurance. To the insurance bard there is affixed each week stamps obtainable at any postoffice. The employer has to match stamp for stamp with each-employe. At present the cost to the employer and employe is 20 cents per week each for men and 14 cents for women. The moment an employe takes out his card he is entitled to medical benefit. He is instructed to go to the postoffice nearest his home and select from the posted panel any doctor on the list. If the employe becomes ill, he sends for that doctor and gets free medical attendance. Prescriptions ape filled by designated druggists without cost to the patient. Druggists also are paid fixed sum? for their services to each-'possible patient. After an insured person has made 26 weekly payments, he is entitled also to a sickness benefit while confined to bed. For men, this amounts to $2 25 per week, for women $1.87. After 104 payments, the sickness benefits are $3.75 weekly for men, $3.00 for unmarried women or widows, and $2.50 for married women. Sickness benefits are payable up to a maximum of 26 weeks. After that, persons insured 104 weeks, become entitled to disablement benefits, which continue so long as they are incapable of work. The disablement benefit is $1.87 weekly for men, $1.50 for unmarried women or widows, and $1.25 for married women. 1 he law extends its blessings also to women who have babies. A woman, who is herself not insured, is entitled to receive, if her husband is insured, the sum of $10.00. A married woman, who is insured, but whose husband is not, gets $20 00. The same sum is paid if both husband and wife are insured. In 1925 a widows' and orphans' insurance plan was added to the health insurance law. The widows of an insured man gets a weekly pension of $2.50 until she marries. If she has children, she gets $1.25 for the eldest and 75 cents each for all the rest, until they are 16 When a widow reaches the age of 70. the pension comes from the old age pension funds. Orphans of insured person? get an allowance of $1.87 per week until they are 16. Advancing prices for copper, lead and zinc, as well as for gold, are doing much in western Btates to increase mining activities and the employment of more men.
