ed in a Winston-Salem hospital.
The clerk In the Vital Statls-

said the record would show the
child died from "an attack by a
venomoua insect.’’
‘•■While the bite of the black

this venomous Insect Is emphasiz

said Dr. Carl V. Reynolds, State
Health Officer.
"I have jus,‘. consulted Prof. C.
S. Brimley, that nationally-rec

with our State Department of
Agriculture, as to how to Identify
this iK>l8onous species, and he
said;
‘The hlaok widow has long,
thiu, black legs and a body that
is almost spherical. On its back
is a red spot. It lives under rocks
and plants, and I reckon that in

Answer—^In a well-built crib,
designed -with a view to fumtgatr

per 1,000 square feet Is a com
mon dosage. However, in the or
dinary crib as much as 50 pounds
is used to the 1,000 square feet.
It is better to use more of the
fumigant than is actually neces
sary than to overestimate the
tightness of the barn and have to
