pasture $7.68 and other feeds $7-04.
I Each of these cows produced on an
average 380 gallons of milk a year,
besides what the csif took. The ma-
nure was not given a value as most
of it was dropped in the pasture to
lots and was not applied to the cul-
tivated fields.
The value of this study, though
limited in extent, is to point out- the
cost of keeping ordinary farm milk
cows. It' is not suggested that a cow
producing only 380 gallons of milk
a year is a desirable cow, but it is
interesting as well as valuable to
know what it costs to keep that kind
While this investigation was made
several years ago it is more valuable
than recent investigations, since
prices for 1912 to 1916 are but lit-
tle different from present prices-
The only profit in keeping the
cowk, covered in this study, was in
the calf. The value of the milk was
about equal to the cost of keep.

Austin, Texas.—On account of the
state-wide interest at this time on
the subject of malarial control, the
State Board of Health is issuing the
following data on the conveyance and
prevention of this disease.
Malaria is due to the malarial pa-
rasite which is fotind only in the
blood of man and in a female an-
opheles mosquito.
The malarial parasite ijefiches a
person's blood only through the bite
of a mosquito infected with malaria.
The mosquito that spreads the ma-
laria gets its infection only through
feeding on blood containing malaria
parasites.
Malaria parasites can be kept alive
a few weeks by mosquitoes and but
a few years by man, because the de-
velopment of the parasite requires
alternate habitation in both man and
mosquito- Keeping infected mos-
quitoes away from man. or prevent-
ing infected people from being bit- ' §|
ten by mosquitoes would in time {§
make malaria unknown- M
Good breeding places for mos- §§
• quitoes are quiet water areas that j§
may remain permanent at least nine §j
days to permit development of eggs §j
into adult mosquitoes. The anophe- §
les does not mature so quickly in fg
the United States. It's young re- i f|
main in the water a minimum of a- §§
\bout two weeks. / gj
Destruction of mosquito breeding '■ ||
places may be accomplished by such §§
means as: !|
Filling shallow pools with dirt or j j
other suitable material. j §i
Draining mosquito breeding areas j §|
with underground drainage tile or j j
with open ditches. j 1§
Confining the flow of ditches and M
streams to small channels with clean i §§
edges and with sufficient current
prevent mosquito breeding.

of stock ponds and other pools of
standing water to prevent larvae

COST OF COW KEEP
; ' H '
To find out the cost of keeping an
ordinary cow for one year, the Mis-
souri Agricultural College, i tnade 1
cost studies on a number of jflarms
during the years 1912 to 191?i
The average cost- of keying a
cow for those years was $45.01. > This
was for average farm milk) cows,
neither registered nor especially high
grade stuff, but for cows giving 3,- 1
000 to 4,000 pounds of milk a year.
The cost was divided as follows:
Man labor $13.80; horse labor, 50
cents; feed $25-38; miscellaneous,
$6.23. The last item is mostly made
up of interest' and depreciation on '
the bam and equipment.
It was found' that th? cost of feed j
for the four years was made up of j
9.5 bushels of corn valued at $5-85. j
870 pounds of hay valued at $4.81, !

THE NERVE OF SOME PEOPLE!
The Mineola Monitor this week received a letter and advertis-
ing from a business firm not very far from Mineola stating they
were advertising in some of the "smaller towns". The Monitor
fused the advertising, not because we didn't need the money but
for other reasons and here is the letter fowarded the concern, .
which is self-explanatory:
ijy
Messrs. —. —.
April 19, 1922.
Winnsboro, Texas.
Gentlemen: /
I am this day in receipt of your order for advertising. Thanks
very much for same.
I note in your letter what you have to say about advertising
your "high grade ladies' apparel that is not carried by the smaller
towns." t
I take it that you have placed Mineola in the smaller town
class, and in this connection I would suggest that you consult the
iast census records, look at our three great railroad systems, our
completed highways, our school buildings (plural) our handsome
brick churches, our enormous box factory, our three banks, our
ice and light plant, and numerous other things which have taken
Mineola out of the smaller town class. Then look at the large
stocks carried by our progressive 'merchants and I believe you
would come to the conclusion that Winnsboro people would do
weil to trade in Mineola, rather than for Mineola people
to trade in Winnsboro.
Tne Mineola Monitor is being published in the interest of Min-
eola and vicinity and East Texas at large. Mineola business men
are patronizing it liberally and I would not be doing these merch-
ants justice to accept your advertising. On the other hand, I
would not be doing the buying public justice not to tell them of
- our bargains. In the advertising you have sent, I see no unusu-
al bargains and I am frankly of the opinion, from what I have
been told, that Mineola people will do far better to trade in Mineo-
la, rather than go to Winnsboro or any other place in East Texas.
Again assuring you of my appreciation for the advertising
tendered, I beg to remain. Very sincerely,
H. J. ADAIR, Publisher Mineola Monitor.
