hlfIkmen's Organization.


From Farmers Review: The milk
MEN of Evansville, Indiana, have or
garIzed an association for the advance
ment of their interests. This associa-
ton, of which ]. C. Wallenmeyer is
secretary, co-operates with the city
food inspector in securing better sani-
tary conditions on the farms of its
members. Meetings are held regularly
at which prominent physicians of the
city have delivered lectures on the
requisites for healthful milk for infant
feeding and family use. Veterinarians
discuss the prevention and care of dis
eases among dairy cows. At a recent
public meeting one session was given
to the discussion of those phases of the
subject which should interest the con-
sumers of milk and cream. At the
second session, H. E. Van Norman, in
structor in dairying at Purdue Univer-
sity, lectured on selection and feeding
of the dairy cow, and care and hand
ling of milk for city trade. The edu-
cational feature of this associations 8
efforts is a new one and cannot help
but improve the sanitary condition of
milk delivered to city consumers This
move is one that could be followed
with advantage by the milkmen of otn-
er cities-W. c. Latta, Purdue Uni

weak Lambs.

We have recently received several
complaints from shepherds to the ef-
feet that their lambs come weak, ss~<
son after season. and are again show
ing similar and even worse symptoms
this year. They say that the lambs
can scarcely stand when born, and
even although they try to suck 1t
seems difficult undertaking and they
fail to derive strength from the nour-
lshment taken. Invariably is added
the fact that the ewes have been fed
apparently well upon coarse folders,
such as clover hay, timothy hay, corn
FODDER, wheat or oat straw This is
one of the explanations of the trouble.
IL has been noticed that unless ewes
when pregnant are fed additional con-
eentrates such as bran, crushed oats,
OIL meal or oil cake they tend to
become constipared and in this condi-
ton there is either trouble at lambing
time or weakness among the lambs.
Inc weakness is due to the fact that
the ewes merely manage to derive per-
sonal nourishment from the food given
out an lnsufflciency of surplus from
winch to build up a strong, we'll
formed foetus. 1t is also reported In
the same connection that many of the
lambs come into the world showing
enlargements of the glands of the
throat. The enlargements are of the
thyroid glands and constitute "goitre,
a trouble that always indicates debil-
lty and lack of uterine nourishment.
1t also bespeaks lack of mineral mat
ters in the food of the ewes and in
the milk first furnished-a lack OF
such salts as lime and phosphate
minerals which are always freely i'm
parted to the blood circulation in bran
and other grain foods of the nitrog-
enous class. In addition to the ag-
gravating causes of weakness in
lambs may be mentioned in-and-in
breeding, or too seldom changes of
breeding stock. The ram is used year
after year, and at last there is too
close connection in mating, with the
result of loss of vitality, constitution
and strength of bone. To prevent
weak lambs from troubling in the
flock the following measures conse-
quently become necessary: Use of
new rams of strong constitution and.
If possible, from a higher altitude;
and generous feeding of concentrates
to ewes before and after service and
during pregnancy.

Human Lives Longer T4ow.
