Scours in Sheep.

Scours in sheep often occur when
feeding on second growth or new seed
ed clover, especially after frost has
checked its growth. An acid is then
formed that infames the mucous
membrane Of the stomach. The sheep
should be put Oh well-cured, sweet
clover hay, and a veterinarian recon-
mends, if the trouble does not cease
within forty eight hours, giving each
sheep that is securing a six-ounce dose
of pure raw linseed oil. In six hours
afterward give tablespoonful Of the
following: Tincture of ginger, four
ounces; tincture of rhubarb, opium and
sulphuric ether, Of each two ounces.
Mix. Put the dose in a small pint of
warm water and gently pour down the
throat of each afflicted sheep. Repeat
in twelve hours if necessary This will
cure any ordinary case Of scours, but
where the securing is the result Of
intestinal worms (tape worms general
ly) it will not cure, as the worm is the
cause and must be got rid Of before any
cure will be effected.-New York Tri-

WindbreaIxs For Poultry.

Fowls do not like to remain indoors
and on stormy days will resort to any
kind Of shelter or break that protects
them from the wind and rain AS they
prefer to be in the open air as much
as possible, the necessity for some
kind of shelter often arises. If the
weather is dry, but very windy, the
shelter may be only, a covered shed,
as clear, sunny weather induces fowls
to forage, and they prefer to be in the
sunlight. Sometimes all they require
is a close fence or wall. This should
prompt those who contemplate making
poultry yards to have the lower part
of the fence, to the height of about
two feet from the ground, close, so
that the hens may be protected from
the direct action Of strong winds. If
they are exposed to the full force Of
the wind even when the weather is
not very cold the result may be colds
or other diseases.-Farm and Fireside.

pearance. This can all be avoided.
especially if the posts are straight, as
they should be, by simply taking
strip of board not wider than the
breadth of the post and about three
feet long. Bevel off one side of one
end and drive it down by the side Of

Three or four long nails are driven

Securing Help. During Busy season


At this season Of the year it is. diff
cult to secure capable help on farms,
and those out OF employment will find
plenty Of work on farms IL they are
willing to learn. Only experienced
men need expect the highest wages,
but farmers will use beginners if the
latter are willing to work at moderate
wages. It requires some skill on
farms, and inexperienced persons are
as useless on farms as in the factor
les. The best farm hands are those
who know what to do, and who re-
Quire no supervision in the part of the
employer, who is often too busy him
self to devote time to instruction.
While the country is full of laborers,
there is lack Of those who are capable
of using judgment in their work and
making it an object to the farmer to
pay high wages.

Wished He Was a Mosquito.

Philadelphia Telegraph.
 1t was before the hour recess in one of the lower grades of a primary school in the northwest part of the city. The class had just finished a reading lesson and was started on arithmetic. A les- son in multiplication was given. and the chatter of pencils over the slates, coupled with the constant hum of the tots in fig uring out the examples. made a noise in the room not unlike that in a machine shop. Although 1t was early in the day. the teacher looked weary. for she had a class of about thirty boys and twenty five girls. and the boys were mischiev- ous lot and up to all the school tricks of the day. There was one little fellow seated on the last form that seemed to be struggling harder than the rest to &C., oompiish the task before him. Finally he let his slate fall to the desk. and with a bang his pencil dropped on the floor. breaking into many pieces. He threw his elbow to the dosk and held his head in his hand. There V g an attitude of don't care about him. and all this attracted tho teacher. who. upon going to where he was seated, found the example on his slate done in four different ways and ways and each with a different result.
 Whats the matter?" asked the teacher. There was no reply. and the tutor again asked. Cant you do the example?' The boy by this time had evidently lost his bashfulness and answered. Nom wish I was a moskeeter. though" " .'why, that's peculiar wish to make" said the teacher; Isn't there something nicer than that to long for?" Well" began the diminutive lad. 'pappa told me last night that moskeeters multiply so fast"
 The recess bell then rang and prevented an uproar among the children. although the teacher who now tells the story says she has many a good lauga when she thinks of the incident

Some Hints as to Summer Styles.

Mrs. Ralston. in the May Ladies Home Journal
 Many plaited skirts are worn in large diversity of materials ranging from null to broadcloth.
 Two lovely old-style- fashions happily revived and reminders of the Louis pe- riods of dress, are the fiehu and the sash
 The bishop-shaped sleeve still holds Its own but is much increased in size. to follow the present requirements of fash ion.
 The preference for one-tone color is increasing. and the combination ot sew eral different colors on one costume is not often seen.
 The old fashion of piping and cnrdins edges of ruffles. hounces and other trim mipga has been revived and most sue eessfully.
 One really new note In the summer gowns Is the return to favor again of the fuli-gathered ruffle put on with q small heading for a skirt garniture.
 Taffeta still seems to hold ilrst place rot oniy as a dress material. but also as a trimming for many other materials

RocKEFELLER's MILLION
But the Beginning of Donations fol the Furtherance of Education

But the Beginning of Donations for
 the Furtherance of Education
 in the South.
 New York Special to Memphis commer-
 ella Appeal.
 John D. Rockefeller's gift of $1, 900, ,000 to the cause of education in the South is but the beginning: there is more. may be another million in sight from the same source If other wealthy men do their share and show disposition to lay aside all sectional feeling and contribute as literally for education in the Southern States as they have for the same pur- pose in the North.
 This gift which means so much to the South and to the nation. in fact, is pecu- liar In many ways. The money. $1,000.- 900. was given outright and. as it was put today. mot as an endowment of which the income only Is to be spent but as a fund to be used outright as the general education board sees fit.
 This is to he the beginning of higher. better and more general education in the South, and MT. Rockefeller said at the time the gift was made, II hope this is to become the channel through which many large benefactions will go to hasten the obliteration of illiteracy." It was told by those interested just how the money was given. It was given to the general education board" and this board will disburse the funds as It sees fit in connection with the executive committee of the Southern educational conference, which mets Friday at Athens. Ga. Pri- marily John D. Rockefeller, Jr, is res- ponsible for his fathers great interest in the cause of education In the South. but Booker T. Washington is in the wide scope of the movement. It was said to- day that Washington and John D. Rocke- feller had met two or three times either In MrF FRockefeller's office or in the office of the general educational board at l16 Nassau Street. It was said, too. that Washington had a great deal of influence in suggesting that the gift be used equal ly for both white and black education in the South. The negroes will get their share. but it is said that none realize more keenly than the president of Tuske- gee the need for a general movement for more general education in the South out side of his own race.
