Dairy Tests.

1t is proposed to hold test of dairy
cattle at the Pan-American exposition
beginning June 3, 1901, and continu-
ing for ID consecutive days. The ex-
position company will provide free of
charge suitable buildings for the care
of animals entered in such test, and
will arrange for commission to take
charge OF the test. The exposition
company will not, however, hold such
test unless three or more dairy
breeds agree TO enter.
There will be two tests. First, one
composed of cows over three years of
age. Second, one composed of heifers
two and one-hslf years of age or un-
der, with their first calf. Not more nor
less than 10 animals of any one breed
can compete in either test.
A statement must accompany es ch
entry giving the pedigree of each cow
or heifer offered for entry, the number
of calves produced, the date of birth
of her last calf. A statement cover
ing the method of feeding, and the
character of food given each animal
during the month previous to the date
of entry.
Animals entered in these tests shall
be cared for by herdsmen selected by
the association representing the breed
to which the animal belongs. A sep
arate account will be kept with each
animal taking part in these tests. Each
animal will be charged in this account
with the kind, amount and cost of the
food she consumes, the ''cost' to be
the market value thereof; she shall be
equally credited in said account with
her milk product, but the loss or gain
in weight of such animal during the
tests will not be considered.
Award No. will be for the herd pro-
ducing the greatest net profit during
the test, butter-fat being the only pro-
duct to be credited to the herd, the
quantity Of butter-fat to be credited
each herd to be determined by the
"Babcock Test" award No. for the

THERE 10 more catarrh is this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and, by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Sci
ence has proven catarrh to be consti-
tutional disease, and it therefore re-
quires constitutional treatment. HALLS

Feeding the Sheep.

Sheep are naturally heavy feeders
and a healthy animal will consume
more feed TO the hundred pounds of
live weight than steers, if both are fed
to their full capacity, but at the same
time the sheep will gain far more in
weight in given time, says E. p. Smith
in an exchange. A sheep that will eat
40 or 90 per cent more feed than steer
will gain from 60 to rs per cent more
in weight. Consequently we do not
begrudge the sheep their good appe-
titles and their remarkable capacity for
storing away food. Indeed, at this ra-
ito we would be willing for the sheep
to increase it's appetite if the gain was
proportionately increased. There is
no animal on the farm that shows the
results OF poor or slack feeding more
than the sheep. You will notice it
both in the fleece and in the conforma-
ton of the body. The loss is thus two
fold. The fleece becomes poorer in
quality and less in quantity, and the
body of the animal becomes thin and
lank. The actual thinness Of sheep
sometimes is not very noticeable until
sheared, because of the heavy layers of
wool that seem to bulge out on the
sides. The condition Of the animal
can be determined, however, if the
hand is run over the sides, hanks and
back.
Sheep have to hustle more or less in
summer and fall pastures, and it is
good thing that they do. Sheep that
have everything their own way are
much like chickens that are never ex-
ercised They become weak, lazy and
fat, but not altogether healthy. A lit
tie exposure might cause their death.
We do not want sheep on the farms
that cannot hustle little and hunt out
food when the food on the farm is low.
Nevertheless, we cannot afford to let
our supply of feed run too low summer
or winter. 1t is slack management
that fails to provide ahead of time for
every season of the year, and many a
farmer has been forced to sell a good
many of his sheep in the fall or winter
simply because he has not saved sufii-
cient food to winter them. When food
is scarce and high priced, and sheep
are low, it is heavy loss to either win
ter the sheep or to sell them for NOM
inal sum. There is rarely any good
reason why man should find himself
in such quandary.
1t takes but little calculation to figure
out how much food is required for q
given number of sheep for winter or
summer. Sometimes the mistake is
made of trying to carry heavier line
of stock than the conditions justify,
and then the feed disappears 80 rapidly
that before one realizes it there is not
enough for half the stock. 1t is better
to sell the sheep now, and raise just
enough to consume all the food that
can be prepared and stored for winter
use, than to let the focks go ahead
trusting that later you may be able to
dispose of them to advantage and
thereby run the risk of falling short Of
provisions for the number that could
otherwise be easily and satisfactorily
carried along.

Why DO Potatoes Blight and Rot =!

1t was supposed until recently that
all of the blighting and rotting of pota-
toes was due to one and the same cause,
| but Investigations at the Vermont ex-
pertinent station during the past de-
cade have shown that there are several
causes which may act separately or in
combination to bring about the destruc-
ton of the potato crop. If the injury
leads to the death of the leaves it is
called blight; if it destroys the tubers
it is termed rot. There are at least
five kinds of blight and two kinds of
rot against which the Vermont potato
grower must guard-and in addition
the potato scab.
These are described for our readers
by Professor Jones of the experiment
station, 80 as to enable any farmer to
know which diseases he has to deal
with. They usually occur in the order
here given:
a.. Arsenical Poisoning. Due to
excessive application of paris green.
Commonly causes brown or black
"burned" spots on the leaves. These
may not appear until several days after
the poison is applied. There is much
more injury from this cause than is
generally supposed, and sometimes the
plants are killed outright. Remedy:
Apply paris green in more dilute form
aud more uniformly.
(2). Early Blight. This is fungus
disease which causes spots much like
those caused by the paris green. 1t
may cause complete destruction of the
tops. 1t never produces rot, however.
Remedy: Spray with bordeaux mixture.
(3). Late Blight and Rot. Ev-
cry Vermont farmer knows and
breads this old enemy. 1t requires
warm, rainy or "muggy" weather for
Its development, but under favorable
conditions will sweep over field and
destroy every plant in few days. 1t
is fungus. The same fungus causes
both the late blight and the rot. Rem

DOES 1T PAY ?
Another Business Man Says The
Telegram Brings Business.

The popular manager OF the Union
Cash Bazaar believes in advertising,
and he buys it the same as he does
his stock of goods. where he can get
he largest returns for his money.
He keeps tab on the results too and
knows what paper brings him busi-
ness. He tried large advertisement
in TIE TELEGRAM recently and has
been more than pleased with the re-
suits. Notwithstanding the weather,
travelling, ETC., etc, he has had a
large sale and people are coming in
every day asking for the bargains he
advertised He has sold large bills of
goods to parties from Corinth, Will
Jamestown, etc, etc. When the peO-
pie come in from the city and all the
surrounding towns and say they saw
his advertisement in TIE TELEGRAM
there is no question about this paper
being good advertising medium.
All we ask is trial. Every business
man who has tried THE TELEGRAM
tells the same story. 1t brings great
results.
