I Sib rts- ?f Norfolk,;) Bother e past week-end with | F S r ^aney has been in ) ^ who Past week with j \ 6, 1935 County Agent Gi\ Concerning Sc The following information concerning the habits and methods for control of screw worms was furnished by County Agent J. E. Dolson: The true screw worm fly breeds only in living animals. Eggs are laid on the wound and young maggots begin to appear in 10 to 12 hours. They immediately bore their way into the flesh and feed in clusters so as to form pockets in the wounds. More and more flies come to lay their eggs until finally there are large numbers of worms eating into the flesh. Unless the animal is found and the destructive maggots are killed, they become fully grown in 4 to 6 days and drop out of the wound to the ground where they change into flies about 10 to 14 days later. The flies then mate and the females are ready to lay eggs in 7 to 10 days. When screw worms are present in a wound, there is a bloody discharge and a characteristic odor. For all practical purposes, a bloody discharge is sufficient evidence to identify their presence. A hard swelling usually accompanies a screw worm infestation. Bloody frothing from the mouth sometimes indicates that the lips or gums of the animal are infested. Common blow-fly maggots do not cause bleeding in wounds. Animals very often become weak and thin because of screw worm attack and they stray away from the herd. Infested sheep and goats hide themselves in underbrush, trying to keep away from the flies. This habit makes it hard to find infested animals in time for early treatment. Treatment of Wounds Use only Benzol and Pine-tar oil for treatment. These are the only materials recommended by the Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine. Benzol is used to kill the screw worms, pine-tar oil is used as a dressing for wounds and for repelling flies. Before these materials are applied, the portions of the animal covered with discharges from the wounds should be carefully cleaned. Wounds containing blood and serum must be carefully swabbed with cotton, because benzol does not readily kill screw worms protected by fluids in the wound. Immediately following the swabbing, a light application of commercial benzol is made to the wound with an oil can or syringe, which retards the flow of blood. Three or four minutes should be allowed for the benzol to reach the screw worms. A second light application is then made, and dry cotton is inserted in the opening of the wound. This cotton plug should remain in the wound so that the screw worms can have sufficient time to breathe and be killed by the gas cf the benzol. It is recommended that stockmen leave the cotton plugs and screw worms in the wounds. Pine-tar oil (specific gravity 1.065, acid free, dehydrated) is then applied over the cotton plug ^HC3C3(3C3t3tK3t3tK3CK3C3tX 11 Benthall Pe< jj And | Benthal Po Peanu j A Gomple INTERNA Farming I I j BUILDING [ WIL [ Implemenl | (INCORPl Whit evil ftoC3CKg*g*KKggg*** * v. ' THE es Information rew Worn Control land on the skin around the injured parts. It may be spread | with cotton wrapped around a ! clean stick. The pine-tar oil reI peals flies and aids in healing. Further Advice Following the first treatment, ' the reappearance of a bloody disI charge from the wound indicates that living larvae are present. In j such cases treatment with benzol should be repeated. If there is no j further discharge, the condition | suggests that the screw worms were killed and that only pinetar oil should be applied. It is ! necessary to apply pine-tar oil j every day or two until the wound has healed. From May 1st to November 15 'Brunswick farmers may expect i these screw-worm flies to be J present and troublesome. Screw j worms must be prevented from | breeding in living animals. This j is the only method known at I present for the control of the j true screw worm fly. They cannot I be destroyed or prevented from ! infesting animals by setting out fly-traps or by burning dead anij mals because they are rarely at| tracted to traps and do not breed in carcasses. If this fly can be kept from I breeding in living animals, it is I believed that there will be little trouble from screw worms. Camel Caravan Wins Radio Fans Program Stars Glen Gray And Famous Casa Loma Orchestra In Addition To Many Other Stars The Camel Caravan, 1935 Fall Model, seems likely to prove the season's outstanding success in radio, according to newspaper and magazine critics with their fingers on the pulse of the radio public. New highs in quantity of fan mail resulting from a single show followed the debut of smoothly operating combination of talent October 1st on the WABC-Columbia network. Walter O'Keefe and Glen Gray and the Casa Loma orchestra are old-time Caravan favorites, counted on to hold all the vast Caravan audience of other seasons. Ted Husing, Columbia's ace sports commentator, is also back with the Caravan, with his reviews and predictions on all big sports events. Deane Janis, warm-voiced contralto facing her first big opportunity on the air, provides a new note to the show. Miss Janis was chosen as the feminine soloist after auditions which eliminated 87 competitors. The Caravan program is on the air at 9 p. m., E. S. T., every Tuesday and Thursday evening. Everyone has his favorite economies and extravagances. The avearage man saves today to spend tomorrow.

Home Demonstration Workers At State College Dis-1 cover That Their Radio' Talks Are Of Aid To Wo-j men I ! | Home demonstration workers at State College are finding that their weekly radio talks are beJing well-received by farm women of North Carolina. Each Thursday has been as- j signed to the women, and the talks delivered by the specialists j have to do with bettering the! farm home and its surroundings. ] Many requests come into State j College after these talks asking | for further information on the j subjects discussed. These broadcasts, known as Carolina Farm Features, are now sent out over five North Carolina j radio stations. The service was j i begun one month ago. The program for the week of October 14-19 includes: Monday, W. L. Clevenger, "Farm Butter Making"; Tuesday, Dr. B. B. | Fulton, "Household Insects"; Wednesday, Dr. I. V. D. Shunk, "Legumes and Nitrogen"; Thursday, Mrs. Cornelia C. Morris, "Meat | Canning"; Friday, C. F. Parrish, j "Management of Late Hatched!

Liggett & Myers Tobacco Co. iPORT, N. C. Farm Questions Question?Will the corn-hog adjustment program be continued in 1936?- 1 Answer?This question will be decided on October 26 when all contract signers will be asked to vote on whether a new program is wanted or not. Ballots are now 1 being distributed and every grower, who has co-operated in pre- , vious programs, is being urged to vote either yes or no. Where a grower cannot vote personally in , the office of the County agent he may vote by mail or deliver his ballot to the community or coun- j ty committeeman. Voting will be closed after October 26 and the I action of present contract signers will determine whether a new contract will be offered. Question?Can the sex of baby chicks be determined so as to j make it profitable for poultry producers ? Answer?This science is a de-1 velopment of relatively recent' years, but has now reached the stage where a high degree of ac- j curacy can be obtained. The effi-! ciency of a well trained "chick j sexer" is over 90 per cent. Poul- j trymen can thus purchase female I chicks for replacement in their' laying flocks, and can also be! sure of getting male chicks fori broiler production. Thus method' conserves house space and cuts j down the overhead for the egg I producer and also aids the broil-1 er producer in that the cockerelsj make better gains than pullets.

Answer?Winter peas may be; sown at any time from Septem- j ber 1 to December 1, and good -1 ITCH riitl For that maddening itch that almost drives you mad, try Dr, Porter's Antiseptic Healing Oil. It is not a fancy preparation but, Oh!, how it works! It kills the parasites that cause most cases of itch. At the same time, it helps heal the sore and damaged skin. Thousands who had tried everything else for sore, itching and broken out , skin say that Dr. Porter's Antiseptic HealingOil was the only thing that ever gave them anything like real relief. You'll find It wonderful for all cases of Itch, including "Athlete's Foot" (Ring tVorm) and Eczema. Dr. Porter's AntisepticHealingOil is made by the makers of Grove's Laxative Bromo Quinine and is sold by all druggists at 30c and 60o with a guarantee of satisfaction or money back. lai&SSSg .
