See to the Horses Feet.

The horses feet should be frequent
ly examined, if he is to be protected
from such accidents as the picking up
of nails, glass and strips of metal OF
various forms and sizes, says an ex-
change The frequency with which
such accidents occur should cause in
creased vigilance on the part of those
that handle horses. If the horse steps
on a nail, even though the head be
up, he may catch it in part OF the
foot that forces it out of the rotten
board in which 1t was previously held.
The next step of the horse drives the
head of the nail further into its rest
ing place in the foot The point of the
foot that is most subject to such mis-
haps is the frog and the cleft just be-
hind the frog. Not only metal but
splinters of wood find their way into
this vulnerable region and become the
cause of pain to the horse, with sub
sequent lameness. 1t is fortunate for
the horse if the injury is such that he
shows lameness, thus leading to an in
vestigation of the feet and discovery
of the cause. But good many times
the injury is not sufficiently great to
cause show of lameness, but 1t is
great enough to cause pain to the poor
beast, and that for days at time.
Frequently this is manifested by a
Discrimination to rest the weight on
this foot when in the stable. In mo-
ton the pain is not sufficient to pre-
vent the horse putting his foot down
as usual. Such injuries are found for
the first time when the horse has to be
rushed. Humanity should lead us to
frequently examine the feet to see that
all things are in normal condition.

Stable Distinction.

The disinfection of stables after
period of constant use should be part
of routine practice. Dairy stables In
particular should be disinfected twice
a year and oftener if the conditions
demand it. 1t is not possible to give
many stables that thorough disinfec-
ton that is possible in houses, because
their construction will not admit OF
it, but it is possible to do very mucn
and at little expense.
The ideal method of disinfection is
by means of a gas as that would
have the power to penetrate every
where. The effectiveness of this
method depends upon securing large
volume of gas and maintaining II lor
some time. Unless the stable can
be made tight, gas will be or httle
use. For all practical purposes the
gas produced by burning sulphur over
q pot of Goals is the best If used In
connection with steam. The dry sui
phur fumes have little germ Killing
power, but when combined with the
steam in the air it forms compound
that is deadly. The boiling of water
and burning of sulphur should go To-
gether. Formaldehyde gas is not SO
efficient for stable disinfection as
many would have us believe. A very
practical means of disinfection tnat
may be used under almost every
stable condition is by whitewashing.
This is not expensive for material
and is very easily applied by means
of an inexpensive fruit spray pump.
The lime should be thoroughly Stacked
and strained through cloth and mace
lust thin enough to work well through
the nozzle. One man can apply TWO
coats of whjtewash with pump and
reach all parts OF side and ceiling OF
a room in about one-fourth the time
required with the brush. Whitewasn
will kin or hold the germs with which
it comes in contact. 1t has the efec'
too of making the barn lighter ano
cleaner. After the first spraying, one
application will usually be sufficient
if given regularly AS the business OF
supplying milk to cities and creamer
les is OF large proportions and de
ponds uron cleanliness, this precau
ton of disinfection should be regu
larly followed.-A. w. Biting, d. V

Rejects the Starvation Remedy.


In a paper read at the last meeting
of the Americana Poland China Record
Association, held at Cedar Rapids, Ia,
Mr.. H. L. Sweet said, relative to the
effect of judicious diet on fecundity.
There is no hard and fast rule to be
laid down regarding the treatment OF
the brood SOW. The method to be pur-
sued is to be determined largely by
the condition of the animal herself.
When l purchased Lady Louise in the
fall of 1900. l suppose very few of the
breeders who were gathered around
the sale ring at that time believed
that she would prove breeder,
and in fact, l think she is the only
one of that litter of fine sows sold at
that time who actually did breed.
brought her home, and so far from
starving her fed her all she cared to
eat, the ration consisted Of ground
oats, middlings and skinned milk.
She was allowed to run IN lot and
provided with bed in one of the A
shaped houses used by SO many breed
ers. She was bred about December J.,
and the latter part of March narrowed
nine healthy, active pigs, one of which
was accidentally killed when a few
days old. The rest lived to be six
months old, when one was killed by
accident. The sow was resold to Mr..
VIM, and it is fresh in the minds of
all of you how readily she was refitted
for show, and how successfully. l be-
lieve thoroughly that this sow could
not have been successfully fitted the
second time had she been subjected to
the starvation treatment as a method
of reducing her flesh, and l also be-
lieve that her young were stronger
and more vigorous as a result Of her
liberal feeding.

Cant we find him? He seems to
be monster, Glum, and l must have
a shot at him."
Paul hurried in the trail of the
bear, and dreamed not of danger.
Suddenly there came from beneath
his feet a loud cracking sound like
the report of a battery of artillery
fired in unison, and the great ice foe
on which he stood began to tremble
and rock.
Dumb with amazement he stood and
trembled with some unknown dread.
It was several seconds before Paul
comprehended his danger, and then
if was too late. The ice foe with its
glittering spires had parted from the
shore and was drifting out to sea-.
Already it was too far for him to
reach the land on which his compan-
ion stood wringing his hands in
despair
A terrible death seemed staring
him in the face, when a new danger
arose. On his ears there burst a
fierce growl, and looking up on an
elevated portion of the ice foe rapid
ly drifting with him toward the sea,
he beheld a monster polar bear glar-
ing at him with the fiery eyes OF rage
and hate.
God have mercy on my SOUL" the
youth groaned, and prepared to meet
his fate with the courage of a hero

KITTEN BLOCKED SIDEWALK.
Everybody Dodged the Dirty Feline
Until a Banker Appeared.

Everybody Dodged the Dirty Feline
Until a Banker Appeared.
At noon to-day, when Park Row,
Manhattan, was crowded with hungry
moftals, looking for their favorite
eating place, halfstarved black and
white kitten made it's appearance on
the sidewalk. 1t might have wander
ed out of some cellar or some tattered
newsboy dropped it, hoping to see
some fun. The ball of dirty fur land
ed directly in front of clerk. He
made frantic effort to avoid stepping
on the kitten and was successful. A
young woman following stepped to
one side. The crowd followed her
lead. Then, at the rate of hundred
or so a minute, people were turning
aside lest they injure the kitten. Any
one of the number could easily have
raised the little mass of bones on his
or her toe and tossed it into the gut
ter. The kitten held full possession
of the sidewalk for fully five minutes.
Then a banker, whose time is worth
several dollars a minute, caught up
the little feline, worthless from al
most everybody's point of view, and
carried it a distance of twenty feet
and tenderly deposited it in an alley.
And yet somebody the other day
accused New Workers of lacking ten
derness of heart-Brooklyn Eagle.

Glum Ralston's Return.

Glum Ralston's Return.
After the frantic effort on the part
of Belcher to seize Ethel Berry for
discovering him to have been in Lack
lands employ, the wounded man grew
sullen. The miners were anxious to
hang him and to have 1t over with,
but cooler heads prevailed. ut will
never do" said Clarence Berry, ito
destroy the only hope we have OF
recovering Paul's gold and solving
this mystery, which deepens with
every new development. Besides, we
have had no lynching yet in the Klon-
dyke. and let us not have any If we
can avoid it"
One evening after the simple re-
past was over, Clarence and Ethel sat
discussing the probable fate of Paul,
who was never out of Ethel's mind.
Poor Paul, he must be dead" she
said, her eyes filling with tears. Il
must write to Laura; must tell her
his awful fate"
After a few moments silence he
heaved a sigh and said:
1T will be very bad news"
"She must know it some time,
Clarence"
THAT is true, and perhaps the
knowledge of his fate, awful as it is,
will not equal the suspense"
81 will write tomorrow. When
can the letter get through?"
Not before spring-you need not
hurry" he answered, with a sad
smile.
Suddenly the door was caused to
quake by the thump from a giant
fist and, opening it, they found their
nightly visitor, Dick, but he was not
alone this time, Gid Myers was at his
side. The faces of the two men wore
looks Of anxiety.
What is the matter?" asked Clar-
ence.
1--WE want yer gun, Clarence" said
Long Dick, as soon as he could re-
gain his breath. II want to tell we
on the dead that there's either some
man. a bear or old Nick up on the
hill"
Fearing their excited imagination
had conjured up monster from a
wandering polar bear, though those
animals were seldom seen in that part
of the country, Clarence took down
his Winchester rifle and accompanied
his companions to the foot of the hill
where the mysterious creature had
been seen. A tall, gaunt object with
warm bearskin coat hanging loosely
about his shoulders was coming
slowly down the hill. The approach
ing stranger had his gun strapped on
his back. A Ratchet was in the belt
at his side with his pistols, and he
was leaning heavily on a long, stout
stick. He came slowly, as II very
weary.
Curiosity gave way to pity, and they
hurried up to meet him.

Same Old Way of Milking.

After all that has been said about
the need for care in milking we no
tice that most of the milking is still
done in the some old way, without
care, without clean hands, without
clean clothes, without anything over
the top of the pail to insure cleanli-
ness, among bad odors, amid
switching tails, in the midst Oh
manure in the barnyard and
in the stable. Here and there are
dairymen that are conducting their
business on scientific principles and
with all the appliances that make Tor
cleanliness, These establishments
have been written up again and again.
The papers have published numerous
articles concerning them, the dairy
conventions have listened to hun
dreds of papers on these model ways,
and yet the old methods go on. A
good many producers Of milk seem
to think that dirt and dairying go
together. The dairyman is learning
that the air of foul stable is swarm
ing with putrescent bacteria, that
there are ways of keeping the stable
clean and of keeping the milk COM
paratively pure as it comes from the
COW. Then why does he not adopt the
new ways and give us clean milk!
The answer is habit. For centuries
certain habits of dairying have pre-
vailed and they are the hardest things
in the world to uproot, Hoary errors
are almost sacred in the eyes OF some
people. 1t is enough for them to say,
my father did so and it is good
enough for me-" 1t requires some
energy to rouse ones self from the old
ways and shake off the dust of ancient
habits.

In RehaIr of Mich Goats.

H. S. Homes Pegler, secretary OF the
British Goat Society, and author OF
the Book of the Goat" says: I'm
France the subject of goats and tuber-
culosis has received more attention.
Professor Nocard stated some seven
or eight years since that out of 10000
goats and kids brought to Paris Tor
slaughter at the shambles OF La VII
lette every spring, the meat inspectors
of that city failed to discover single
case of tuberculosis. He even added
that incubation fails to introduce the
fatal bacillus into the system OF the
goat, although | believe the statement
has since been questioned; anyway, l
have been told by veterinary authori-
ties in this country that attempts
made in England have failed. Goats
milk as q diet for children has many
advantages over cows milk, as | have
often demonstrated, but this one great
virtue transcends all others, and 1t Is
inconceivable that parents knowing
this, and having the opportunities and
accommodation for Bookkeeping,
should not avail themselves of so
simple and economical means of at
once providing their children with the
most easily digestible and most nour-
ishing of food, and safeguarding them
from one of the greatest evils that civ
ilization of the present day is sub
ject to.

Cheese of Pasteurized Milk in Sweden

A United States consul in Sweden
says: Choose of pasteurized milk has
lately been considered almost impos-
sible to produce, and dairymen have
been at loss how to use the churn
milk, which has been sold as feed for
pigs or thrown away. A short time
ago, a chemist at Stockholm-Dr.
Frans Elander-succeeded in effect
ing a preparation that solved the
aforementioned difficulties. Owing
to this discovery, which has been
named "caseol," palatable and nour-
ishing cheese, free of tubercular bacil-
Ii, can now be made from pasteurized
skim milk. This preparation has,
moreover, the excellent quality Of
rendering cheese more digestible.
Several diaries in London have made
experiments with caseol, with the
same favorable result. l will gladly
procure samples of caseol for any of
our dairymen who may desire to
make trials with it.

Growth of the Packing Industry.

The steady growth in the meat
packing industry is shown by the CEN
sus reports. In 1850 the amount OF
capital invested in the meat packing
business was s3,4S2,5O0, which was
then considered very large sum. By
the last census this investment had
grown to $3.50, 19S,264. Fifty years ago
there were 1876 establishments in
which meat packing was done; now
there are 921. Half a century ago the
labor was done by 1926 employees; in
1900 the number employed was 6S,534.
Wages paid during the last census
year amounted to S33, ,01S against
1921, 596 fifty years before. The value
of the finished products had increased
from about 81, 100000 to over $685.
600 900. The number of establishments
increased over that of half century
ago, but is less by 1000 than it was
ten years ago. This is due to the alb
sorption of the little plants by the
large packers.

"Who,"
1.-THE very men who robbed me.
The reaction which came over the
old man was terrible to witness. he
recalled that after all he might lose
his beloved captain, whose lie was
still in danger. for he was once more
a prisoner
'Well, well, all may yet be lost!
he sighed. "Crack-lash, let's go ana
hunt him. Now that we know ne is
alive, we got something to hunt for'
and we'll hunt him. Come, Crack
LASH"
After considerable persuasion Paul
induced him to wait until next morn
ing; so they built a camp fire and
prepared to pass the night.
Next morning they were early astir
They had packed their knapsacks
land were about ready to start, when
paul suggested:
perhaps the walrus hide will tell
something about this mystery. Let
us take look at II"
He unrolled the walrus hide, and
the ex-sailor, who had long studied
the picture writing Of the Alaskan
Indians, bent over it and began TO
slowly and carefully decipher the pic
lures.
The old man had to put all his
knowledge of picture writing to the
severest test to read. He made out
that the captain had discovered rlcn
gold diggings, but the walrus hide
could give them no hint as to the
whereabouts of the three men and
their prisoner.
Paul suddenly rolled up the walrus
hide and stuffing it in his knapsack,
said:
THAT piece Of hide is key to mil
lions, l have no doubt, and in all prop
ability the scoundrels were trying TO
make him give it to them"
Lets go, Crack-lash. Let's go, fur
I itch to git my fingers about the
threats of the cusses."
They hastily packed up, broke
camp and were soon on their way up
the mountain, engaged in dangerous
search, the result of which they knew
to be doubtful

limit to the number of capons. You
can keep as many as you have room

are only a dozen. They are hardy and
remarkably exempt from disease.
