One of the street car companies in
New Haven has adopted a rule forbid
ding passengers TO stand on the run
ming boards Of cars or between the
seats. If a car is SO full that it con-
tains no empty seats, the newcomer
must wait till another comes along or
else crowd in at the rear of the car,
where the space Is too small to ac-
commodate more than half n dozen
persons. The rule is excellent, pro-
vided the company will run enough
cars to carry all who wish to ride.
Nobody enjoys standing on a running
board when n car is in motion or
crowding in between seats in front Of
a row Of obviously annoyed passen-
gers, but even this is better than be-
ing subjected to a long delay on a
street corner.

ROOSEVELT A MAN
OF MANY PARTS


In view OF the trip OF Governor
Roosevelt through South Dakota the
following sketches of the various eri-
sodes In his many-sided career arc OF
interest:
ROOSEVELT ON THE RANGE.
A. 7. Packard, now Of Chicago, was
editor OF the Bad Lands Cowboy when
Roosevelt was ranching up on the Lit
tic Missouri, and has many pleasant
recollections OF those days, Said hei
You cannot pay a higher compliment
to Theodore Roosevelt than to say that
he won the friendship OF every cowboy
in the Bad Lands. There isn't on earth
a more Independent, self-think ng lot
OF men than these same COW punchers.
They have the faculty or shocking a
man out OF his crust and looking his
real character squarely in the face. IL
they like him Il is a pretty safe guess
that the man VIII pass muster any
where for his sterling worth. n 1t Is
Iust as safe for any one who diners
from such q conclusion about Roose-
Welt to keep his opinion to himself In
the Bad Lands. The cowboy Is per-
fectly willing at all times TO back up
In any way his friendship for Roose-
Welt. | wonder what would have hap
pened to Altgeld IL he had delivered
his Toledo speech at a Bad Lands
roundup?
Roosevelt returned directly to Me-
dora from the Chicago convention or
1880, when CJnkling came so near
nominating General Grant for a third
term. He had been one OF the dele
gates from New York and had broken
away from Conkiing. He refused to
vote for Grant with the rest OF the del
egetlon end cast his vote for Edmun1s;
It was his first experience In national
politics, aud I will never forget his de-
nunciatlon OF the methods used by SEN
ator Conkling and others to coerce
him. And be always would wind up
his story with and, by Godfrey, sir, |
cont be dictated to by any man.
There wasn't n symptom Of rant In IT.
He meant exactly what he said. and In
every fiber OF his being. This very
trait. with It's corollary OF never die
tating to others, Is the point upon
which hinges his multitude Of friend
ships wen among those who do not
know him. He is as firm In his con-
vlctions as the everlasting hills, but Is
always amenable to argument. | do

passes that OF Theodore Roosevelt"

time In the history of Nebraska, not

be fed exclusively, but certainly there
are foods that not only contain
enough protein, but contain too much.
Take, for instance, wheat. 1t contains
too much of the protein to serve for
a single food. A well-balanced ration
requires about six parts of the carbo-
hydrates to one Of protein, while
wheat contains about four parts OF
carbohydrates to one OF protein,
which makes the protein in excess. If
a hen were fed exclusively on wheat
she would be compelled to eat nearly
SO per cent more protein than she
could use to get the carbohydrates
necessary. Balanced rations are the
most economical, and every poultry
raiser should try to figure them out, or
at least should learn enough OF the
science to recognize a balanced ration
at sight.
A certain poultryman say that he
has not had a v%entilator on his poultry
house for ten years and does not want
one; that he prefers his ventilation
to come in through the minute cracks
and go out the anne way. He says
this is heresy, but works well with
/ m We venture the assertion that
he never had a properly constructed
ventilator; that the only ventilator he
ever had was a hole in the root, with
more or less attempt to make it appear
artistic. The common mode of IN
structing ventilators is barbaric, and
such ventilators are indeed worse than
no ventilators. They are generally in
the top of the roof, and permit the air
to fall directly down on the birds. No
man should attempt to construct a
ventilator unless it is to be built on
the most scientific principles.

Oats as a poultry feed are very val
liable, in spite of the fact that so many
poultry growers never feed them. If
the men who think the fowls do not
like 1t will put oats where the hens
can get at it at all times of day they
will soon find that the hens have dis
covered that there is virtue in oats.
Oats are as valuable for hens as for
horses. Being SO we'll balanced as to
proteins and carbohydrates, they fur
nish a most nutritious and excellent
food. We notice that some one advo-
Gates feeding oats in the morning with
a mash, having soaked the oats over
night in water put in at the boiling
point. This may be an improvement
on the ordinary method of feeding
oats.

Enteritis of Fowl Fever.

A writer in the Farmers Gazette,
published at Dublin, Ireland, says:
The germ of the disease reaches the
ground in the droppings of the sick
birds. 1t %reproduces itself rapidly in
dirty pools, puddles and manure heaps,
such as are frequently seen in the vi
cinity of dwelling houses, and thence
it is carried about on the feet of
passers-by or animals of the farm.
The smallest particle of the droppings
of sick fowl may produce thousands
of poisonous germs. 1t is only by
swallowing one of these germs that
fowl fever can be produced. 1t is
most important to remember this.
Ducks and geese are not liable to this
disease, but turkeys and pigeons are,
and it affects all ordinary barndoor
fowl, irrespective of their breed or of
their vigor of constitution.
The first signs of sickness are OBJ
servable three or four days (not long
er) after the disease germs have been
swallowed. They are: A tired, sickly
appearance, staggering walk, ruff
fed feathers, the comb and wattles
sometimes turning black, great thirst.
and constant droppings of the consist
ency and color of fluid mustard. These
last two symptoms are always pres
emf, even if the first mentioned are not
observable. In severe cases the birds
will die within twelve hours after the
symptoms appear, but the usual course
of the fever occupies three days.
There is no remedy that can be re-
lied on to cure a bird suffering from
this disease. The best course is at
once to destroy any bird attacked by
disease; and as the disease germs are
distributed in the droppings of sick
birds. the longer such birds are per-
mitted to live the greater is the risk
Of spreading disease. If for any rea-
son it is decided not to kill the sick
birds, the following purse may be
taken: At once on observing the be-
fore mentioned symptoms, isolate the
infected birds, combining them in a
place from which they cannot escape
and feed them with bread and milk
or a raw egg beaten up in milk, and II
possible with plenty of barley water

Care of the Brood Sow.

The SOW that has been bred for a
litter of spring pigs should not be neg
lected now. She should have a good,
comfortable place to sleep, writes Wal
lace Jamison in Modern Farmer. 1t
should be warm and dry, and she
should not be crowded in with other
hogs. II she can have the run of a
woods lot or pasture field, so much the
better. A little grazing every day will
be good for her and the pigs expected.
It will help to keep her in good condi-
ton. If she must be confined in a pen,
she should be fed some food of a lax
alive, nature. A little wheat bran with
the kitchen slop will be beneficial. The
feed given her is not only for her sus-
tenance, but is also giving a start to
the pigs that are to follow. If good,
vigorous pigs are wanted, their well
fare should be looked after now. The
SOW should not get too fat. She wants
to be kept in good growing condition,
and her surroundings and feed should
be such that she will be contented and
happy. A poor, bony, %squealing SOW,
with her fore feet on the top rail OF
the fence when you go to feed her, is
not the SOW to bring forth pigs for you
to be proud of and profit by.
