CURING cANKRR SORES.
A Disease which Needs Prompt At
tention as Soon ~ IL Appears
Among the Young Pigs.

This disease invariably appears in
young pigs from the time of birth to
few weeks old. If not attended to
promptly it either stunts their growth
permanently or they waste away and
die. The symptoms are as follows:
Sore mouth, swelling of the jaws, with
white, sometimes light brown, scabs,
which later show deep cracks. The
scabs and cracks are found on the
snout, extending over the head and
even to the body and limbs. In some
the snout and eat away part Of the
nose. In other cases the ears may be
affected and drop off. There is dull
ness, loss of power in the hind limbs, a
tendency to walk on the fetlocks, dis
inclination to move. The pigs usually
stand with their backs bumped up.
They either refuse to suckle entirely
or else do so in a half-hearted man.
ner. If made to walk and move they
will squeal as if in pain, writes H. C.
Duke, in New England Homestead. The
young pig must first be attended to by
dipping the entire head in one of the
following solutions: Permanganate
Of potash, one ounce; dissolve in one
half gallon of water; or creoline or
chloro-naphthol, one ounce to one-half
gallon of water. These solutions
should be applied three times at inter-
walls of two or three days. Before
using the solutions remove as far as
possible all dirt from the snout of the
pig, or larger amount of the solu-
ton will have to be used to get good
results. The sow's udder should also
be washed with one of these solutions
two or three times. Distinction of
the narrowing pens with hot lime wa
ter should also be performed, as it has
been noticed that litters narrowed in
the same pen at different times have
been affected with this disease An
other breeder has used zenoleum with
success as wash and disinfectant.

HOG FEEDING TROUGH.

To feed many hogs, the sketch

of one-inch plank directly above,

the hogs out of the trough. The

to admit his nose easily, thus max

FEEDING SCRUB CATTLE.
II Is Largely n Speculation, and One
That Rarely Pays n Satisfnc-
tory Profit.

In an able article written by Mr.. L.
F. b. Sotham, and published in the an
nual report of the Kansas state board
of agriculture, he says: Highly salts
factory results have been recorded
from feeding the grades of all the beef
breeds. What significant lesson is
taught by the preeminent fact that not
one single instance of profit with
scrubs is recorded. Men who feed
scrubs do not care to advertise their
methods; profit from them savors
too much of sharp practices. Men who
claim to have made money feeding
scrubs are few, and they are sly in
their operation. They buy anything
cheap; bulls, which they castrate and
.dehorn; cock-horned, stunted three
year-olds are dehorned, in the expec-
tation of palming them off as year
.lings-anything to improve appear
ances. Yet the operations of these
feeders, il carefully investigated, will
show that they never get above mar
ket price for their corn, and men who
have borrowed money to buy this sort
of cattle and fed purchased corn in
variably lost money, while for every
dollar profit made on scrub feeding
the same would have yielded far great
er results il fed to good stock. If in
isolated cases any real profit has been
made from feeding scrub cattle, it has
been invariably by owners of large
tracts of rich corn .ands feeding their
portion of corn, which is mainly raised
by renters. In majority of years it
is safe to say they do not receive
through their cattle the market price
for this corn, and in profit-yielding
years they have such large numbers
that small average profit realizes a
large sum. In this these big feeders
of cheap cattle are like the packers.
who, killing thousands of cattle per
day, are satisfied with so small profit
that small slaughterer cannot live in
competition. Feeding scrub cattle is
largely speculation. Where feeder
does not own the corn, debt free, he
runs dangerous financial risk. Scrub
cattle should be allowed to fill the
tins, off of grass, and that grass must
be cheap grass, in country where it
Is so plentifuland valueless that cattle
can be kept the year round for pit
lance. In such section they may be
kept with only the loss of the profits
of "what might have been" had better
stock been kept in their place.

 Just who Is responsible for this condition of things we are not prepared to say, nor are we dis posed to ccnsure any candidate or the friends of any candidate for securing this vote, if it IS to be voted. Once placed in a posi- tion to be instrumental in de ciding the result it Is a free fer all fight to win What we wish to be understood as con tending against, is the necessity for making such fight.
 To the Democratic party in this portion of our country, at least, is entrusted the sacred and solemn duty of upholding and defending the principles of liber- ty and good government, and whenever we surrender that trust to the hands of the most ignorant and interruptions of the Republican contingent, we are treading upon dangerous ground.

GENERAL FUNSTON AND HIS CRIT.

"During the height of his in- dignation that certain American newspapers have seen fit to crit icise the methods which he eul- ployed to effect the capture of Aguinaldo, General Funston should not permit himself to be swept into a mock heroic atti- tude of defiance of the American press.
 The young Kansan is under too heavy obligations to the newspapers of this country to justify his loss of temper because certain publications now blame instead of praise him. There IS no general officer in the regular army today who so largely owes his advancement to the newspapers as does Funston There is none who can so i'll af- ford to assert that newspapers are prone to untairness in deal ing with individuals.
 General Funston should be manly enough to take the medi- cine of adverse criticism without complaining. Newspapers that believe he violated the articles of war III the manner of this cap ture of Aguinaldo have the same right to blame him that they had co praise when they believed that he had earned promotion by his gallant leadership of the TWentieth Kansas Volunteers in action. The Republic is not of the number that condemn Fun ston's methods in the Aguinaldo capture But the Republics frank contention IS that General Funston should remain calm un- der adverse criticism after hay ing uncomplainingly accepted so much newspaper attention in the form of commendation. "- Republic
 The above advice is good, but the Republic is a very old news paper not to know that there are few living men who can, as serenely, accept newspaper eriti- cism as they can newspaper praise.
