Tho Cincinnati and Memphis packet
line have withdrawn from the trade |
ON account Of low water. II requires
pretty good stage for their boats to
swim. This company does not give
as much attention to the trade as they
did in former year, as the line Of
boast in the Cincinnati and Louisville
trade has in the last few years almost
completely monopolized their atten-
ton, as they have built and are build
ing the finest sidewheel boats that ever
floated, sparing neither pains or ex-
pense in giving the travelling public
elegant accommodations. Their boats
in the upper trade are very large and
very fast The Cincinnati and Mem
phis trade used to BE- the best trade ON
the western waters, but has been grad
ually retrograding for several years.
IL this company hal not neglected
their lower Ohio river trade so much
they probably would have made big
money.

Guarding Against Anthrax

|
AS q rule farmers and stock raiser!
are too careless in their handling d
animals affected by diseases that arc
either unknown to the owners Of the
animals or are known to be contagi-
| GUS or infectious. Both anthrax and
biackleg, when known or suspected to
exist, should be carefully handled The
man that has charge of such animals
should be impressed with the fact that
those diseases are transmissible to
man and may prove quickly fatal
There are instances on record where
post-mortem investigations have result
ed fatally to the men that made them,
as the blood gives the disease by mere
ly coming in contact with the skin
of human being. Not only the blood
but all parts of the carcasses may be
the means Of conveying the disease.
This is especially true if the physical
cC1diti'n of the person exposed is not
OF the 5est.
When an animal is taken slightly
sick with a disease that is suspected
to be anthrax such an animal should
in no wise be sold for meat, as it has
been found that even cooking will not
Moreover in that case the butchers
are constantly exposed. History tells
us of great life losses from eating ami
mails that had been slightly affected
by anthrax. For instance on the ISL
and of San Domingo an epidemic
broke out that carried away $4,000
people. A medical examination showed
that the disease was due to the eating
Of animals affected with anthrax. 1t
is said that epidemics of this kind fre-
Quently break out in Central Asia,
where horse flesh is quite a common
article of food, the diseases being
started by the eating Of horse flesh
that is tainted with anthrax.
The carcass of the animal that has
died with anthrax is hard thing to
get rid of. Burying is not sufficient 20
kill the germs and they will get TO
the surface no matter how deeply the
carcass may be buried. Moreover the
carcass of the horse is seldom buried
very deep. 1t is too much work to dig
a hole deep enough to thoroughly de-
stroy even an ordinary disease. But
years after the burying Of a carcass
that was affected by anthrax cattio
have died from eating the grass over
the grave. Investigations showed that
every blade of grass in that locality
contained anthrax germs. Burning is
the only method that can be depended
On, and this should be practiced Wher-
ever possible. AS second best man
ner of disposing of the carcass we
might suggest air-slacked lime, though
this is not sure of being effective due
to the fact that too little lime is gen.
orally used.

A Cheap Feed for Swine.

In the cold climate OF central Indi-
ana one cannot rely upon pasture to
furnish the proper amount OF succulent
feed for the hogs during the long win
ter and spring. The only crop that
my experiments have shown adapted
to this purpose is the beet crop, writes
a contributor to National Stockman
and Farmer. For this crop one must
select rich soil, containing plenty OF
humus, and be we'll drained with deep
tile drain.
Plow very deep and as early as pos
sible in the spring. Harrow the ground
every few days until the latter part
of May or the first Of June. This makes
a perfect seed bed, free from weeds.
About this 'date the temperature Will
be such that the seed will come up
very soon after planting. Drill the
seed very thickly in the row with some
good standard make of garden SEED
drill that presses the fine dirt to the
seed, as the beet seed otherwise germl-
mates slowly. Let the rows be twenty
eight inches apart, that the beets may
be cultivated with the ordinary small
cultivator. When the beets are about
five or six inches high, thin to beet
every six inches in the row. Late
planting and growing the beets thick
in the row prevent them from being
so large and woody. Some variety OF
sugar beet, or the improved long red
mangel, is preferable. The managers
produce a much large crop, and are
much easier harvested, but are not
quite so rich in nutrients.
Late in the fall harvest the crop and
store it either in long pits or the root
cellar, for use during the winter and
spring. From twenty to sixty tons OF
beets can be readily produced to each
acre so cultivated, at cost of from 30
cents to 81 per ton harvested. These
beets are simply thrown whole and
without cooking, to the hog, and are
eaten with great relish.
