It has appeared in nearly all states except those in New England. and Ohio, Michigan. Wisconsin, j and Mississippi. A number of cases of this tick-bone disease occur each year in Maryland and Virginia in the vicinity of Washington. 1). C., and also in North Carolina. Delaware, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. From the standpoint of wood tick infestation. May and June are the worst months for camping or hiking in regions where those insects are abundant, according to Dr. F. C. Bishopp of the I'nited States Department of Agriculture. By the first of August the ticks practically disappear. The late summer is u better time for out of doors activities in sections where ticks are common. Ticks live on blood obtained by attaching themselves to animals or hu man beings A tick bite may result in nothing worse thap a local irritation. Or it may serve as a point of entry' for serious bacterial infection of some sort. The common dog-tick or wood tick is frequently a dlSdhbe carrier. Rocky Mountain'spotted fever is the most widespread and most dangerous of the tick-bone diseases. It has a high mortality. Bvt,nome species of ticks also hare been known to carry tularemia, or rabbit fever, and others, mainly in the West, a dl eeaso called relapsing fever, and a pe- J culiar form of paralysis. Although adult ticks prefer the blood of dogs, they may attach themselves to horses, cattle and larger wild animals, as well as to man. The younu licks, called "seed ticks" and . "nymphs" relish the blood of meadow and pine mice and other small wild animals When there are none of these Utile animals on which the young ticks can feed they disappear Clearing out underbrush near houses, camps, and frequently used walks cuts down the number of ticks by removing shelter for their hosts. If ticks are very abundant near a permanent | camp site, a creosote oil spray on the area around the camp and along the | trails may help to kill vegetation and repel them to some exteut. I It is best to confine dogs In yards throughout the tick season, and examine both dogs and horses frequentI ly. Dr. Btshopp recommends pulling ! ticks off those animals with forceps! or tweeters nnd dropping them Into a can of kerosene. This avoids hand j ling thorn. Ticks that have fed on a i dog for a few hours are Immedlatel) ! dangerous if they bite a person, hut j they are not likely to detach until fully fed and the engorged females I will not reattach As the Rocky Moun- I j tain spotted fever disease can be con-' traded from crushed ticks, through < tits or scratches, it is a safety measure to wash the hands thoroughly af- I ter touching ticks. Denis powder may (be scattered lightly over heavily Infested dogs This kills any ticks on the dog and tends to repel others. Since each engorged female tick that escapes will deposit about 5,000 eggs, the Importance of killing every tick on a dog is emphasized. If it is necessary to go into tickinfested place*, It U advisable to woftr high-top shoes ovar army type trooajers and systematically to examine the] body and head at feast twice a day. Ticks often attach themselves in the hair at the base of the scalp. Theyare not likely to transmit the disease unless they remain attached at least six hours. Ticks are yery hardy. They tan live from year to year with no food. Adult ticks put in vials without food have been alive and vigorous after more than three years. Hence it can* not be taken for granted that an area is tick-free. New infestations may appear.

C\ Lloyd Fisher, chief legal defender of Richard Hauptman in the Lindbergh baby case, has been appointed prosecuting attorney for Hunteruon county, New Jersey, by Governor Harold G. Hoffman. Despite the very favorable court decisions on the laws advocated by the President, ho still insists on his judiciary reorganization plans, and is not inclined at all to drop the matter or accept any compromises. On the other hand the foes of the proposed stacking or packing of the court are more determined than ever to defeat the proposals and the fight is just really beginning in earnest. President Hoosevolt has sent a request to congress to permit foreign governments to use American helium as a means of safeguarding passengers in lighter-than-air craft. He transmitted to Capitol hill a report from a spec ial committee of five cabinet officers proposing relaxation of regulations which, since 1925, have limited sale of the fire-proof gas to domestic concerns.
