FACTS ABOUT ANTHRAX.
Human Beings Have Often Been At
tackled by It,

Psychologists believe there is no
cause for alarm in regard to the appear
ance of anthrax in this country, but it
occurs in rare instances and a supposed
case recently excited considerable COM
ment. In it's most malignant form the
disease exists in oriental countries.
Cattle and occasionally horses are at
tackled by it. In these animals it mani
tests itself as a splenic fever. Man, in
any climate, may be inoculated with
anthrax. If his hand should have an
abrasion and be brought in contact with
hides infected with anthrax bacilli, the
disease is likely to manifest itself as
contagious carbuncle, malignant pus-
tule, or wool sorters' and hair combers'
disease. If there is rapid reatment by
excision of infected flesh, after inocu-
lation, the patient may recover. Unless
treatment is speedy virulent local in
hammation "attended with sloughing
and speedy system poisoning" results.
There is great prostration after inocula-
ton, and death from exhaustion often
follows in a day or two. The dust of in
fected wool or hair, invading the lungs
or windpipe, poisons surrounding It's
sues and ends life with distressing
symptoms. The preparation of anthrax
vaccine was among the earliest of Pas
tours great works. 1t is said that from
100000 to 100000 animals are vac
cinated in Europe every year.-Chicago

LIVE STOCK POINTERS

The fall pig should be kept by itself
during the winter, fed we'll and kept
warm.
If food for stock is cooked at all, it
should be cooked and not simply
warmed.
If your hog is sick, vermifuge, such
as worm seed, will very likely reach rhe
case.
My hogs that died with cholera were
nearly fat enough for the pork barrel
says breeder. Fat all their lives. we
suppose, that is in diseased condition
from the beginning.
We never did approve of following
cattle with swine, if it can be avoided.
With large herds it is best, but with
small herds grind the corn and mix the
meal with cut fodder and feed indoors.

WHAT THE EGGS COST.
The Profit Depends Entirely on til
Cost of the Food.

The Profit Depends Entirely on the
Cost of the Food.
If a farmer has a flock that must he
confined in yards, and fed twice day, it
is doubtful if the eggs received will
more than pay for the food consumed.
The estimate of the cost of eggs is based
on the fact that the amount necessary
to be expended on laying hen for one
year, provided all food must be allowed
her from the storehouse of the owner.
is one dollar, while the average number
OF eggs laid by each hen during one
year is estimated at 100. This makes
every egg cost one cent. But i: does
not cost one dollar a year for each hen
except where they must be kept under
adverse conditions. Hens on farms
cost the farmers not over IS cents hen
year because the hens are self-sup-
porting during a portion of the time,
and also because they consume and util-
ize great many substances that
possess no value to the farmer. It is
true that the hens occupy land that is
usually devoted to some crop, such as
grass, fruit, ETC., and which may also
be occupied by the fowls entirely. The
profit from eggs must depend on the
cost of the food and the prices OBJ
tanned. There is wide difference be.
tween IL cents and 20 cents dozen for
eggs, and if we estimate the cost of an
egg at one cent, the difference of one
cent dozen in the price obtained may
change profit to loss or nothing at
all. There are hundreds of farmers who
sell eggs at only eight cents dozen,
owing to distance and lack of transpor.
tation facilities to market, but the cost
of the eggs is correspondingly as low;
hence, the actual cost of an egg depends
rot only on the cost of the food, but the
conditions affecting the keeping OF
poultry. East of the Mississippi river
farmers should have no difficulty in
securing good prices compared with
the cost. 1t is not the winter eggs that
pay best, for they may bring high
prices and be scarce. The eggs which
give the most profit are produced by
hens that forage and secure their food
without being dependent upon their
Owners Farm and Fireside.

Kilgcow was hardly out of the room
when Protheroe tapped at the door and
entered without waiting to be asked.
Il beg your pardon if I intrude," he
said, bluntly, but I've got to have a

FATTENING HOGS,

Fal1 II the Time Above All Others to
Push the POrkers.
The corn field and the hog are COM
ing closer and closer together. Just as
soon as the grain begins to dent, we be-
gin to cut up the corn and feed it to the
hogs that are to be fattened. How they
Will pick up on it. The longer the hog
is kept after cold weather sets in, the
more expensive the animal is We like
to tatten quickly and send to market,
anu we can feed all the corn the hog will
eat from the stage above described
until the animal is ready to market. We
feed nothing but corn during the fat
tenlng season. If the animal has been
on good pasture and fed lot of mill
stutts during the summer, it needs moth
log OF this kind, if it is fattened quick
~. VI course the laying on of fat must
be considered as a diseased condition.
Iurlng the fattening process the hog is
hot, feverish, and as the fat accumu-
lates the organs are oppressed, and if
led nothing but fattening food the
bones and muscles get very little nour-
1shment, but that will do no particular
harm unless the process is continued
tc1 a long time. If it is the animal
ought to be fed some millstuffs or some
thing like them. All the time the hog is
being fattened it should have plenty of
good pure water. Swill will not answer.
II you ever had fever you wanted wa
ter not milk, not tea or coffee, just wa
ter The fat hog feels exactly like that.
AS to keeping swine for better mar
ket, everyone must be his own Judge. I
think it is best to get them off as soon as
possible. 1t is all expense to keep hogs
after they are fat enough to kill, and the
question is simply this: Can you afford
to be at the outlay of keeping hogs a
month Or two for what additional price
you may get. AS rule, no. The fall is
the time to push the swine. The tenn
perature is just right for the profitable
laying on of fat. 1t is not too hot and tits
not cold enough to use up the fat.-H. o.

The Practice of SoiltnR.

There is no question in the minds OF
those who have tried it, of the great
saving made by the practice of soiling.
Experiments recently made at the
Michigan experimental station show
that about four times as much food is
obtained from meadow allowed to ma
ture hay, as from field pastured. In
soiing, the difference would probably
not be so great, owing to the fact that
the grass of peas, or alfalfa, or whatever
is grown for the purpose, is cut before
it fully natures, but even then from
two to three times the number of ami
mails can be supported by soiling, as on

"Protheroe didn't stretch it much
said Philip, unconsciously lowering his

quiet OF the street. You'd hardly be-
1ieve that I have stood on the sidewalk
just here, waiting my chance to dodge
across through the endless stream of
carriages and wagons and electric

1T doesn't seem possible
mo, it doesn't. And in that last
afternoon, when was breaking my
heart to catch the New York train,
Merchandising omnibus was actually
stopped in jam of vehicles somewhere
along in this square, and was afraid
we'd miss it,
On either side of the grass-grown
streets were the costly monuments of
the sham city's brief day of activity and
life Lofty buildings, empty from Gel
lar to roof; rows of vacant stOre-rooms
lined with dusty shelving and Uttered
with the forlorn debris of hasty re-
movals; shattered glass on the side
walk; withered grass festooning the
cornices; and, in front of the disman-
tied Bank of Allacoochee, the skeleton
of an electric car left to dissolve peace
fully on the rusty tracks in the road
way. Here and there the desolation
was emphasized rather than relieved
by scanty and shop-worn display in
the windows of some merchant who
had been unwilling or unable to join
his neighbors in the general exodus
following the crash; pitiable fotsam
ard jetsam left by the high tide of
commerce to bleach and molder on the
rocks of an uncharted island in the
ocean of traffic. OF these stranded
wrecks, the most notable was the store
OF dealer in hardware just across
from the Chiwassee national bank.
''That is where I bought my pistol
on the night of the garroting,'' said
Philip, telling the driver to pull up at
the curbstone.
The proprietor of the place was sit
ting on a spool of barbed wire in from.
OF his own door, and he rose and crossed
the sidewalk in response to Philips
salutation. "Oh, it's you, is it, Mr..
Thorndyke? I didn't know you at
first. Come back to take look at the
corpse?''
1T amounts to that, I'm afraid" said
Philip, alphabetically.

knowing what else to say. "Why didn't

THE END.
The Camp Of tho Great Khan.

The tent in which he holds his court is
large enough to give cover easily to
1000 souls. It is pitched with it's doors
to the south, and the barons and knights
remain in waiting in it, whilst the khan
abides in another close to it on the
west side. When he wishes to speak
with anyone ne causes the person to
be summoned to that other tent. I'm
mediately behind the great tent there
is fine large chamber where the khan
sleeps; and there are also many other
tents and chambers, but they are not
in contact with the great tent as these
are The two audience tents and the
sleeping chamber are constructed in
this way. Each of the audience tents
has three poles, which are of spice
wood, and are most artfully covered
with lions skins, striped with black
and white and red, so that they do not
suffer from any weather. All three
apartments are also covered outside
with similar skins of striped lions, q
substance that lasts forever And in
SIDE they are all lined with ermine and
sable, these two being the finest and
most costly furs in existence. For a
robe OF sable, large enough to- line q
mantle, is worth 1000 bezaats of gold,
or 1000 at least, and this kind of skin
is called by the Tartars 1.-THE King Of
Furs- The beast itself is about the
sizeaof marten. These two furs Of
which ! speak. are applied and inlaid
SO exquisitely that it is really some
thing worth seeing. All the tent ropes
are OF silk. And, in short, /. may. say
that those tents, to wit, the two audi
ence halls and the sleeping chamber,
are 50 costly that it IS not every king,
