MENDING BROKEN LEGS.
Major Alvord Gives Page or Two Out of
His Own Experience.

major Aivord Gives Page Or Two Out OF
His Own Experience.
Every owner of domestic animals oc-
casionally experiences r. ses from ac-
cidental Injuries to them, and this is
especially true of breeders who have
animals running together in numbers,
in yards or pastures. Broken legs are
not uncommon with horses and cattle
of various ages, and the question al
ways arises as to the best course to pur-
sue. The prevalent disposition is to
regard broken leg as incurable (and
this in spite of abundant evidence to
the contrary, and to condemn the un-
fortunate animal at once to death.
There are cases. undoubtedly, in which
this is the better course, as where the
age or small value of the animal will not
warrant the expenditure of money and
valuable time upon it. But in other
cases it pays well to mend the broken
leg.
Too often, however, particularly when
young animals are killed as soon as
broken legs are discovered, it is true,
even if veterinary skill can not be OBJ
tanned, nature and common sense may
be combined to bring about substantial
recovery. A few cases in my expert
ence, to which have been added the OBJ
servation or account of others similar,
lead me to believe that where horses
and cattle have broken legs, and are of
sufficient value to warrant some ex-
penditure of time and labor, and not
too old, an effort should be made
to save them. Where possible it IS
doubtless true economy to en-
ploy the best veterinary assistance
in such cases. Country doctors, in
general practice, are pretty good COM
parative ANTAGONISTS, and are usually
found willing to apply their surgical
skill to injured animals The animals
themselves will generally do much to-
wards recovery, if only placed under
favorable conditions and reasonably
assisted by their owners.
Some years ago a tWo-year-old colt,
with Others in an outlying pasture, was
found with fore leg broken above the
knee and hanging limp and useless. It
was early June, hot weather fast COM
Ing on; the animal, although fairly
gentle, had. never been accustomed to
stall or harness. knew it was useless
to attempt putting it in sling, or adj
justing splint and bandage if left in
pasture. There was a small lot avail
able, with excellent grazing, water and
shade. In this the colt was placed,
simply watched. given a little extra
nourishment in the form Of oats, and
left to his fate. The leg hung in such
q way that the bone was in a natural
position, and the muscles were used to
keep the foot clear of the ground. The
animal moved about on three legs for a
month, took good care of the one In

about 81 cents. Germans count 100

marks), 5, 10, and 20 mark gold pieces.
France, Belgium, Italy, Switzerland,
and Roumania use fractionally the
same currency of 100 confines to the
franc, worth. about 9 cents; but the
Italians call their francs Urea, the
Roumanians lei, and the Swiss call their
confines rappen, and have ten rappen
coins called batzen, Greeks count 100
lepta to the drachma, worth about 16
cents. The Servians use the French

copper and nickel coins of 90. 10, and

real, worth 100 confines; l peseta,
worth reals; and escudi, worth ten

5 cents. The Portuguese chief coin is
the milreis, or 1000 reis, worth about

One hundred kopecks make a silver
ruble, which is worth about
rs cents; they issue now a
great deal of paper money in
denominations of L, 3 5, 10, 25 and 100

the Ira, or gold medjidie, worth about
$4.37; the piastre, of which it takes
100 to make a Ira; and the becklik and
altilik 105 to make the Ira. They
keep their large accounts by the

a little more than So, and monzon-

few days afterWard. Roy was walk
ing along the street, having just taken
sorrowful look at the window inside
of which were the tishing-rods, and
| settled on one he would have bought,
| if he could have bought any. 1t was
Mr.. Pike who called, and Roy went to-
ward him with cheeks again turning
red, and wondering as he had wonder
ed the hundredth times, if Mr.. Pike
| knew.
| Here's your half-dollar,' said. Mr..
Pike. 'Did you think meant to make
you pay it for one marble?'
| Roy hung his head and held back his
hands.
''Take it," said Mr.. Pike, grasping
the small hand and putting the coin in
to it. "But let me tell you, my little
man," he added in more serious
tone, you'd better face right about in
this matter of being sneaky and de-
ceitful. You've got a long life ahead
of you, and if you go through it paying
away truth and honor and manliness
for every trihe you want, it will be a
much worse bargain than paying fifty
cents for marble"
"lll remember, sir, and thank you,'
said Roy, in q very humble tone. "Fll
run and bring back the marble"
NO" said Mr.. Pike. 'You can
keep it,
"But | hate the very sight of it."
said Roy.
Never mind that. Put it among
your other marbles, and play with it.
Don't trade it nor give it away, but let
it always remind you to stand by fair
and honest dealings as long as You
live"
1t was a good lesson for Roy; and I
hope he profited by it, don't your

for morning gowns, with accessories OF
velvet; fancy braid or front of surah
makes one more dress The favorite
colors are red, brown and blue, and the
bright reds are very pretty trimmed
with black. Such gowns are very de-
sirable for the entire year, as there are
many days in summer that they are
most comfortable. particularly if one
is not feeling well, or at the seaside.
A model seen in Gobelin blue has the
back cut off in blunt point just below
the waist, and a plated skirt added;
princess fronts cut away from the neck
and the edge laid in two kilt plaits on
each side over a plated vest, and
narrow tablier of pale blue surah. The
deep cuffs, pockets and high collar are
of the light surah laid in small tucks.
The same model may be made of white,
with plaitings of yellow surah, each
plat caught by row of briar stitch
ing. The edge of the princess fronts
in this case may be trimmed with gold
galloon. All wrappers should be rather
loose and perfectly easy for lounging.

NOVELTIES IN FAIENCE.

Flowers and Leaves of Gold and Colors to
Take the Lead.
The new designs in faience ware will
be decorated more beautifully than any
thing ever produced in this ware by
American manufacturers. Some of the
new patterns were seen by reporter
through the permission of the manager
of a leading manufacturing company.
He said the new feature of the trade is
that the American production has be-
come so we'll known that the retailers
have no difficulty in selling it. 1t is
observed, also, that the taste of the
people is more cultivated than for
merly. In the common or printed
ware there can be no artistic work. One
of the pieces of faience recently made
cost 1915. 1t is a bowl-shaped vase,
thirty-eight inches high, of Pompeiian
design. The entire body is covered
with a heavy coat of bronze and on
this is traced pond lilies and leaves in
heavy gold work. The cover bears the
shape of Turkish fez and both cover
and handle are perforated.
A novel ground work is malachite
green. It is deep shade and shows
to best advantage under a strong
light. It is decorated only in gold. In
the new decorations beautiful flower
patterns will prevail and colors and
gold will take the place of. the bronze
and gold of last year. An exquisite
effect is produced by a wild rose pat
tern in pink and pale blue, set off by
gold and shaded by gold and medium
brown. Another decoration is a this
tie in full bloom, in gold, with foliage
in pale brown. Pond lilies form an
other new design, the blossoms being
red, with leaves in deep and light
green, the whole on light yellow
ground. There are also punches of
wortleberries in raised gold on
groundwork Of pale cream color. or
berries in red against a white ground,
with foliage to match.
There is a new craze for lamps made
of faienee ware. An extremely hand
some design is a lamp which stands
161 inches high it is vase-shaped. The
body is formed like bowl and the
neck is nearly as long as the body. The
latter is covered with wild rose deco
rations in red and gold, and the body
decoration consists of five trumpet flow
ers in heavy raised gold on cream
groundwork. It is worth $780, A new
feature is the making of Easter novel
ties, among which are swans, full-har-
messed elephants, a boat-shaped shell,
bell-shaped olive jars and fanciful bon
bonnieres. All are decorated in flow
ers Of gold and bronze.-N. r Nail

jured, and I do not think it attempted
to lie down during this time. Then ii
began to put its foot to the ground and
gradually to use the leg. BY the time
pasturage failedin the fall it had a sub
stantially sound leg again. and was 8
useful animal for years. When trot
ting it showed slight lameness. proba
bly, due to little shortening of the in.
jured leg, but in field work and for al
ordinary farm purposes it proved {
thoroughly serviceable horse.
A valuable heifer just year old had
one hind leg very badly broken, includ
ing an ugly flesh wound, while unload
ing from a wagon. This leg was set
put in stiff plaster bandage for weeks.
the animal kept in box stall, lying
down most of the time. After a long
and varied experience with surgical as
sistance, making a case of much inter
est, but which can not now be de-
scribed in detail, the animal recovered
to such an extent that, although she
has an awkward leg, she is gooc
cow and a regular and profitable
breeder.
Within few weeks a thrifty calf
running in covered yard, showed
great lameness, and on examination
the bone of a foreleg was found broker
between the knee and the ankle. Il
was evidently caused by blow, from.
| fear, a brutal attendant now dis.
charged The age and condition Of
the animal were like those of the colt,
so no attempt was made to sling it and
use bandage. The calf has been
given a comfortable and safe place
fed well, and simple applications have
been made to reduce inflammation and
keep the leg in favorable condition.
1t has been impossible for the creature
to keep its foot entirely clear of the
ground, and this has retarded the
healing; but it is now using the leg,
and while there has been bony
growth, which will enlarge the leg and
be blemish, do not anticipate much
permanent lameness. and expect to see
the little fellow become a sound, ser.

Beautiful Dress Fabrics for Spring and
Summer Wear.
The lines of satines of domestic
manufacture are very handsome and
hold their own well beside the French
goods. There is certainly very de-
eided difference in the patterns, but
our patterns show handsome designs
and a fine quality in fabrics. There
are a number of reddish brown and
other brown grounds, strewn with odd
figures in gold color that are much adj
mired. These are thirty-two inches
wide and sell at twelve and one-half
cents a yard. All the new summer
tints are represented and handsome
line was noticed in stripes and plaids
with plain material for combination.
tine piece shows a wide stripe Of Rus
sian blue alternating with gray shade,
and these are dotted with Persian de-
signs and colorings. There are satines
in red, brown and garnet grounds, with
unique geometrical figures in yellow.
japanese designs also flourish in these
goods and are particularly taking. The

tints and colors and look as fresh and

An Excellent Food For Cows When Given

In reply to the question: ITO what

that, having fed with cabbages for
many years, I never knew Of them
proving hurtful;'' but, then, they
were always given-as every kind Of

| would consider to be two large cab
bages, or three smaller, if given once a.
day; and # given twice day, two
smiddle-sized ones night and morning
would be sufficient. A good cabbage
will weigh from to Z or even s
pounds. DO that the ration would stand
thus: Once day, from Is to Is pounds;
twice day, to 10 pounds each serv-
ing. There are two good reasons for
not oYer-feeding with cabbage. They
are generally a limited crop, and. if
used sparingly it goes without saying
they last longer, and so tide off the
