and give them proper burial for
■weeks, even months. In th^ Cham
pagne and on the Verdun front,where
hundreds of thousands of France's
poilus gave their lives, the same sit
uation prevailed. But in the heavy
fighting at Chateau-Thierry and to a
lesser extent in the Argonne, the i
Americans were pushing steadily 1
ahead and a very large percentage of j
our dead vrcre quickly reached and
given proper burial.
There were times, however, when j
bodies had to be quickly disposed of
in order that the health of the army
might not suffer. Frequently coffins
were not at hand; they could not be
brought lip under enemy fire without
endangering the lives of many more
Americans, nor could the bodies be
; taken to the rear for the same rea
son.
Little burial parties gathered
quickly in the darkness, often with
German shells screaming overhead, a
chaplain read a brief service and the
j dead were laid away as expeditiously
as possible, the spots being marked
; by the wooden crosses and identify
I ing records forwarded to the grave
: registration service,
In the garden of one villa in the
city of Chateau-Thierry, the bodies of
six Americans lie in the shade of a
rose-covered wall. * They wree killed
; in sharp fighting in the outskirts of
the city. Their remains were recov
! ered when the Germans evacuated the
; town and were laid away in their
! blankets a few hours later.
One came from Atlanta, one from
i Milwaukee and the identifying cross
! es on the others showed they were
! farmer boys from counties in Ohio
and Illinois. In many instances of
, this kind, the bodies were taken from
the earth and placed in coffins and

TREATMENT FOR STOMACH
WORM DISEASE IN STOCK
The most satisfactory treatment
for stomach worms in cattle and
Bheep, according to Dr. W. H. Dal
rymple of the Louisiana State Uni
versity, is the administration of a so
lution of copper sulphate, or blue
stone, which may be prepared as fol
lows: Take sixteen ounces of clear
crystals of bluestone and crush them
to a fine powder. Place the powder
in a porcelain lined enamel ware re
ceptacle to* prevent corrosion, and
add sufficient boiling water to dis
solve it. Then add cold water to
make the total quantity of water nine
and one-half gallons to obtain the
proper strength for use. This solu
tion should be kept in a wooden,
earthenware o^ other non-mettalic
receptacle. By observing these pro
portions, any desired quantity of the
solution may be prepared.
The dosage of the copper-sulphâte
solution is as follows:
For cattle—
Calves..............3 1-2 to 4 oz.
Yearlings ..................6 oz.
2-year olds and above. .12 to 16 ozs.
For sheep—
Lambs 3 months old........3-4 oz.
Lambs 6 months old......1 1-2 oz.
Sheep 12 months old........3 ozs.
Sheep 18 months old .... 2 1-2 ozs.
Sheep 24 months did......3 1-2 ozs.
The solution should be thoroughly
mixed, and the doses carefully meas
ured and given in the form of a
drench.
Stomachy worms infection in cattle
and sheep in the state has caused con
siderable losses and is a very serious
problem with many stock owners.
Ciruclar .No. 31, recently published
by the extension division, gives com
plete information on the care and
treatment of animals suffering from
the disease. A free copy may be had
by addressing the agricultural editor,

PECAN TREES OFTEN
INJURED BY THRASHING
In gathering pecans care should be
f taken not to break the branches or in
jure the fruit buds,advises B.Szymon
iak, associate horticulturist, extension
division, Louisiana State University.
i-The common custom of roughly
thrashing the trees not only reduces
the crop the following year but the
j mutilated branches are likely to be
! injured by insects and diseases.
Pecans are ready to be gathered
when the shell is properly colored
and the shuck does not adhere. The
nuts may be brought down by shak
ing the branches or by gently tapping
