Vaccination for Blackleg.

The Virginia Experiment Station has
issued bulletin for the purpose or
instructing stock owners how to OBJ
tain and use blackleg vaccine for the
purpose of preventing the disease
among their cattle. The vaccine is pre-
pared by drying pieces of muscle
taken from the swelling of an affected
animal. After being finely ground 1t
is heated at a temperature of 92 to SO
degrees certigrade for period of six
hours 1t is then pulveriZed to fine
powder and if kept perfectly dry will
keep for a year or more. This dried
muscle contains the spores of the
germ of blackleg, which spores are so
weakened by the heat process that
their injection into the animal does not
cause a virulent form of the disease,
but at the same time protects the ami
NAL from any future attack of it.. The
immunity so produced is said to be
lasting in animals over six months OF
age. In the Year Book of the United
States department of agriculture for
1898 the statement is made that from
IeSullS SOllen from tno use OF vaccine,
the loss has been reduced from 10 to
20 per cent to less than 1 per cent.
Up to the present time the Virginia
station has been supplied with lin
tied amount of vaccine by the Bureau
of Animal Industry, IN all, about four
thousand doses, of which about $500
doses have been distributed to the
farmers of that state. Although no
call has yet been made for reports of
results the station has heard of but
two deaths occurring after vaccination,
amounting to very small fraction of
1 per cent, while several have reported
their loss as high as 25 per cent before
vaccination. Vaccination has now be-
come SO general in Virginia that the
station has decided to manufacture it's
own vaccine for free distribution in the
state. The only expense to the stock
owner in vaccinating his herd is the
vaccinating outfit, which conj BITS of a
graduated hypodermic syringe, mortar
and pestle, glass funnel, cotton for
fltering and a small measuring glass.

animals were grievously wounded. 1t
was plain that neither could hold out
much longer. Manned and CORY, they
fought with the certainty of death, the
bear rolling over and over in the dust,

thrusting and tearing the grizzly with
irresistible ferocity. At last, as il he
determined to end the conflict, the
bull drew back, lowered his head and
made third terrific charge; but, blind
ed by the streams Of blood that poured
down his face, he missed his mark,
stumbled and rolled headlong on the
ground. In spite of frightful injuries
and great exhaustion, the bear turned
quickly and sprang upon his PROSTATE
foe. He seemed to have been suddenly
invigorated by this turn of the battle
in his favor. With merciless sweeps
of his huge claws he tore the flesh in
great masses from the bulls upturned

Millet as a Feed in the Dairy.

Millet, says bulletin of the agricul-
tural department just published, is fed
principally as hay and soiling crop.
The forage ranks we'll with that of
other grasses in the nutritive content,
and it's palatability is about that of
the average for the coarser sorts. For
digestibility, millet forage compares
favOrably with that from other coarse
grasses. Already widely grown as a
hay crop, millets deserve more general
use for soiling. They are particularly
valuable for feeding to dairy cattle,
young stock, and sheep. There are
many sections of the country where
this crop can be made to supplement
the pastures in such way as to allow
a material increase in the number of
stock that can be kept on the farm.
On account of the heavy yield Of for
age and the good quality of the prod
uct, millets are excellent grasses for
use in the silo. Frequently a good
crop of millet can be raised under con-
ditions which would not admit of
growing corn for ensiling, and in such
Instances it becomes of especial value.
One of the best methods of preserving
this crop is by the use of the silo.
Those who have tried this method
have obtained excellent results. A
fine quality of ensilage may be made
by using barnyard millet and legum-
inous crop like soy beans or clover.
The seed of the foxtail millets is wide
ly used as food for fowls and birds
however, been used in feeding young
stock, such as calves, with a fair de-
gree of success. The seed is an ex-
cellent food for laying hens.

milk much of the matter that now
gets in. The constant falling of dust
from the cow into the milk is in a
foot she is not likely to get it into the
fluid that is to be used as food for the
family. Of course, this must be kept
clean or the strainer on top will be-
come an element of danger rather than
safety.
The time is at hand and in some
counties is now here when the pas
lures will fail and the COWS will either
have to fall off in milk, receive green
crops that have been planted for them
before this time, or will be turned into
the meadows. This latter is not wise
thing to do in most cases, but is done
to great extent The amount Of
damage depends good deal on both
the condition of the sod and Of the
moisture in the soil. If there is a good
sod, if the land has been we'll treated,
the grass will be SO thickly matted
that there will be little damage, unless
the ground is SO soft that the tramp
ing of the cattle will break the sod.
If the sod is thin and the herbage
light the cropping will do much dam
age to the crop next year; but in such
cases it would be better to turn the
meadow under late in the fall and put
1t into cultivated crop for a few
years. Where fields are to be turned
under either this fall or in the early
spring, the cropping now will be so
much gain. Where it is expected to
keep meadow permanently it is GER
tainly not good policy to turn the
cattle into it after a heavy rain, when
the ground is soft.

BunCOel the Railroad.

An old fellow living in the southwest
part of Kansas got into a scrap with
railroad conductor on account of the
irregularity of his ticket. He lost a
portion of his whiskers and was eject
ed from the train. He was SO grieved
over the affair that he engaged Joe
Waters as his attorney to bring suit
against the road. Joe made up his
suit and presented it to Bailie Wag-
gener, the attorney for the Missouri
Pacific. Waggener declared that he
had never heard of the case and knew
nothing about the affair. But Waters
pressed him so closely that a compro-
mise of $500 was finally agreed upon
and paid. Joe then wrote to his client,
inclosing half Of the sum received, say
ing that he had settled with the Mis-
souri, Pacific. His client wrote back
that he was satisfied with the amount
received, but it wasn't the Missouri

weight, the two fierce and determined
brutes must have been about equally
matched. The unfortunate result of
the bulls last charge on the grizzly in
dicated that the latter's qualities would
in a few minutes more settle the fight
against the bull and l was in momen-
tary expectation of seeing such a ter
mination, when, to my establishment,
saw the bear relax his efforts, roll over
from the body of his PROSTATE foe and
drag himself feebly away from the
spot. The grizzly had no sooner aban-
doned his attack on the bull than the
latter was on his feet, bearing himself
as erect and as fierce as ever.
"Giving his head a shake, he lowered
it for the fourth time, and again charg-
ed. AS the bull hurled himself against
the grizzly the latter braced himself for
a last desperate struggle. He struck
out wildly with his paws and the bull
fell back with the force of the grizzlys
blows. The bear sank to the ground
writhing in agony. The indomitable
courage of the bull here prevailed
Blinded and crippled as he was, he
dashed wildly at his foe again. With
a last frantic effort the bear sought to
make his escape, scrambling and stag
gering through the dust. But it was
useless. His great strength was gone.
The bull plunged his horns again and
again into the huge form of the dying
brute as he lay stretched helpless in
the dust. The bears muscles quiv

LAYERS in the Fall.

Some hens begin laying late in the
fall, lay through the winter, and dur
ing the summer losing no time until
August or September, when they be-
gin to moult, says Mirror and Farm
er. But moulting is considered fault
with such hens, as they receive no
credit for their good works. If they
set an example of usefulness they lead
their owners to expect them to so con-
tinue. and as soon as they fail to keep
on, their heads fall under the hatchet
for simply resting from their labors,
while the fat drone hens. that have
been expected to begin, are retained a
second year, in the hope that they
will do better. Virtue does not receive
it's reward, even among hens. Indi-
vidual merit is swallowed up in the
vices of the whole number. Early pal
lets are the most uncertain of all. A
pullet that does not begin to lay be-
fore she is ten months old should be
sent to the market stall. 1t does not
pay to keep pullets to replace hens
unless the pullets begin to lay in No
vember, and then lay during the win
ter. When the pullet is slow in be-

ly. When early pullets Chose Matched

November it is seldom they will lay
until the opening of spring. 1t is much
cheaper to keep the old hens during
the three months required for the
moulting process than to sell them off
and replace them with early pullets.
The old hens will cost less and pay
better. No early pullet will pay for
herself until she is at least Is months
old, as she must return the cost from
the time she was hatched until the
time she begins laying, a tribute which
the hen has already paid.

Bear Took Possession OF Farmhouse.
Bears, which were unusually numer-
Gus in Pike and adjacent Pennsylvania
counties during last winter and spring,
are again making themselves obnox-
ious to farmers, and are venturing into
the cearances, and in one instance
took possession of a farmhouse, as is
evidenced by the terrifying experience
of Mrs PicOt, an aged resident of Dark
Swamp. While engaged in her morn
ing duties about the house she was
startled by soft footsteps advancing
up the walk. Turning, she was con-
fronted by the bear, and before she
could close the door Bruin barred the
way. Although terribly frightened
she retained her presence of mind and
began to shy various cooking utensils
at the beast, which, instead of retreat
ing, lodged the missiles and walked
into the kitchen. Mrs. Picot hastily

Airing Incubator Eggs.

j. E. Stevenson, writing in Rural
New Yorker, says: One who advised
that airing was unnecessary probably
makes a machine with great amount
of ventilation. There are very few
machines now with automatic egg
turning devices for turning eggs with
out removing from the egg chamber,
and nearly all authorities prefer TAX
ing them out for turning, when they
are sure to get slight airing twice
each day. If the change from 103 de-
grees to 60 degrees or less for the few
minutes required for turning is too
great, what about the setting hen that
must come off occasionally for food
and water, even though the tempera-
ture is 20 degrees or less? She will
stay off in zero weather much longer
than the time required to turn the
eggs from an incubator. In my opin-
ion the change, if not long enough to
chill the eggs, will give stronger
chicks than the continually closed ma
chine or the hen that sits more close
ly. 1t is much easier to get the de-
sired air space in the eggs when the
incubator room is at so degrees than
when at 80 degrees, and 1 find it much
easier to get out good matches of strong
chicks in the early spring than in hot
weather.
