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

a boxing match Saturday night with
the University of Maryland. He collapsed
at the ringside several minutes
after losing his match in the 155pound

Maryland, by a technical knockout,
and was placed under the care of doctors
at the hospital. He had been
knocked down In the first round but

closely, either In stalls or a chute, so
that the powder can be dusted along
the back and rubbed Into the hair.
This treatment will kill most common
kinds of cattle lice, but a second ap- |
plication is needed in fourteen days to j
destroy those which hatch after tho
first treatment. I
Oil, while effective for the control i
of lice on hogs, should never be used
on cattle as it may cause the hair
to come off and result in serious loss- '

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

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.
Municipal electric workers of Chicago
went out on a strike Friday night
shortly after 8 o'clock, and much of
the electric service of the city was
dead.
The strikes in the automobile factories,
thus stopping the outturn of
new cars, la boosting the sale of second
hand cere over the country.
