CORN STALK DISEASE.
A Contribution from the Veterinarian
Of Purdue Station.

This term is applied to a disease OF
possibly several diseases occasioned as n
result of pasturing cattle in stalk fields
late in the fall or early in the winter.
An outbreak, IL one should occur, usu-
ally takes place in from two to fourteen
days after the animals arc turned upon
the stalks. The great majority of cases
occur between the fifth and the eighth
days. IL is also observed that all
animals that do become affected die
within two or three days Of each other
Thoro is nothing in the appearance OF the
fodder t. indicate that il may cause
tiouble. Cattle may Craze and do we'll
on one field and from 10 to so per cent.
be lost on changing to another field
separated from the first by fence. 1t
makes no difference whether the cattle
arc allowed to Craze for only few hours
or left in all day. After one outbreak
has occurred, it is rarely tn, case that o
second will follow. The disease has
never been reported from feeding cut
fodder oven when taken from the same
field as that in which disnse has occurr-
ed from grazing. The cause has never
been determined, but it is most often
observed after dry season.
The general symptoms are that the
animal appears dull, persists in standing
in one place, or IL he moves il is with
noticeably ierlSy gait. There is mar
ked prostration; the animal will fall on
the knees and it may require several at
temps to arise. Some act rs though
they were crazy, bat tho majority are
stupid. There is mora or less frothing
at the mouth and almost constant
swinging OF the bead frJn side to side
wheather in the standing position or
lying down. The movements arc iudi-
cation OF pain. TheIcourse is of very
short duration from two to thirty hours
Too often the history is that the cattle
we're all right in the evening and from
one to eight found dead in the morning
As the cause is not known and a success
ful treatment has not been discovered,
the prevention OF me gns OF relief cannot
be prescribed except by using cut fodder
Several outbreaks have becn reported
in the past two weeks, and in number
of outbreaks Of supposed bIack-lg, DR..
Craig, assistant state veterinarian, has
found this to be present instead. Tie
disease is not contagious and cannot
spread from one farm to another. Tho
occurrence OF few cases in 4 commu-
nifty should not frighten others to
discard the use Of the stalk field for
pasture.

Before planting corn next spring il
may be good plan to give some study
to the distance apart plants should be
planted. The customary distance for
planting corn is three feet and six
inchvs. When the corn is so planted
there are 1856 hills on an acre. An av-
erage of two stalks to the hill will make
Zip stalks or as mary ears Of corn.
When hills arc planted three feet apart
there will be 4,4SO hills to the acre,

will make 0,6S0 stalks or as many ears.

TO ENCOURAGE THE HEN.
Green Cut Bone VIII Stimulate Egg
Production,

The scarcity Of eggs at the present
causes the people to wonder what has
become the matter with the hen. Pos
sibly the drouth has caused their ra-
tons to be cut down, and they have
gone on a strike on the theory that "no
pay no work" Hence the owner OF the
"strikeis" willlnaturnlly bo interested 10
any method that will force the hens to
lay. The following from the "Woman' s
Farm Journal" is said to be practical
methods:
every few men would hesitate to in
vest five cents TO increase the produc-
ton OF eggs from q single hen, aud tho
man who keeps hundred hens aud will
invest five dollars in a Lone mill will al
ways be able to furnish his hens with
the best egg food ever fe1. One of
these bone mills will cut green bones, TO
which adheres some flesh and ligaments,
into shayings which hen can swallow
easily. These bones may be bought OF
the butcher in the nearest town for
cent or two a POUND, and two ounces to
every hen every week is sufficient for ev-
cry purpose.
"Green bones are full of the very kind
Of nutriment that the laying Len needs.
They contain carbonate OF lime, q or 7
per cent; phosphate OF lime, So to 63 per
cent; phosphate Of magnesia, to per
cent; fluoride of calcium, 2 per cent,
and animal matter "a TO 30 per cent. the
remait der Of their weight being water.
at takes but few minutes to cut
bones enough for one hundred hens,
There is no combination OF feeds that
will stimulate egg production as this
one will. Where fresh green bones can
not be got, the dry bones that may be
picked up on almost any farm may be
broken and crushed with but little
trouble, and will be found valuable, but
not so much so as the green ones, as
tho animal matter has disappeared from
them.
"No matter IL the hess do have the
run OF the farm. There are many farm
where chickens have been kept so long
that lime stones and other egg forming
materials have been used up, and thus
must be supplied or eggs cannot be pro
duced. All grains have a small quanti
ty Of lime in them, but not enough to
furnish gg-shel material for hen that
is laying regularly"

AS TO THE COUNTY FUNDS
BALANCES ALL SHOWN IN
DETAIL.
The County rs About SOS 900 In The
Hole Misleading Statement
OF The Joplin Globe
Corrected.
From Carthage Press.

From Carthage Press.
The Joplin Globe started out the new
year with false and misleading state
ment as TO the financial condition OF
Jasper county, published with view to
covering up the blunders and misman-
agement Uf the present county court.
Among other things in its article the
Globe says:
AT the close Of business last evening
there was standing idle in the depC STORY
and bank OF Jasper county not less than
a quarter of million dollars good to the
credit of the said county. This will be
a surprise TO many people and especially
to those who have becn shouting calam-
ity aud endeavoring to leave the impress
ion that this great aud grand old county
is a paupcr and that she has not a
sufiiciency Of cold cash with which to
meet her just obligations,
The Press finds 10y an investigation OF
the county books that tho following were
funds on January l, 1902;
Capital school fund, s44,572 Al.
Interest on school money not appor-
toned. sj,6a325.
Railroad school tax, $l,6i0.95
Sinking funds, SIT, 1901.

Special road and bridge fund, s3,-
lOl.lS.
Corporation funds, sl,470 81.
Criminal court costs, S9O7 "A.
Township road fund, 81, 725 CS.
In tho five funds over which the
county court has jurisdiction the bal
ances are as follows: contingent, sl,-
7s9. 81; salary, 81, 507.5l; pauper, So
5i3, 80; bridge, 81. 447, l6; grand and
petit jurors, 81 ,022 IS. Total slO,2ll 20.
Tho total balance OF all funds above
enumerated is sl23, ,56S,40.
But in the Eve funds upon which the
county court may dray, protested war
rants are outitanding as follows: Contin-
gent s9o,6A 81; pauper sl};6is. 80; grand
and petit jury S274.95; bridge l,35j.S6.
Total s1O5,9l4,4s. THIS the sun Of
nearly sl06, coo must I've paid for out of
funds totaling only sl0,211,29, which is
how the county is at the present time
prepared 10 meet its ''just Obligations. :"
These figures show that Jasper
county is at the present date about S35-
900 in debt in protested warrants, and
very decidedly hasn't ''money to burn, T"
as the "hot air" writer in the Globe
alleges.

BARTON COUNTY m 1901.
has 0cod Reason to be Satisfied
With Its Record.

From the Lamar Republican.
As we close the history OF the first
year OF the now century, Barton county
has good reason to be we'll satisfied with
its record. Other years have ben more
prosperous in some respects, for we have
had to endure the most destructive
drouth that has visited the country in
twenty years. Notwithstanding this
fact however, we end the year in very
satisfactory condition when We consider
how little we have had to sell. One Of
the most gratifying features of the
whole experience is that we have discov-
cred what Barton county soil is capable
of doing uoder unfavorablo circum-
stances. The amount of heat ana
drouth which our growing Gro stood
last summer before they showed serious
injury, was really remarkable. While
we regard the year as almost failure
we havo enough &c carry our stock
through the winter and some to sell, a
TACT winch Sptdh6 NolulhoS iOi thS iei
tiiity of the soil.
We have had large immigration of
homeseekers into the county in the past
year, who are people of intelligence,
means, thrift and industry. As result
Barton county land is increasing in val
ue every day, with a steady growth
which promises to be substantial and
permanent. Very few of those who
once settle here are dissatisfied, ant
most OF these are of that rowing dispusi
ton which ia never coutent when al
rest. With good soil, splendid eli
mate, and intelligent people, there is
no reason for the homeseeker 10 regret
that he has taken up his abode in Bal
ton county.
The advantages Of the rural free mail
delivery have been extended TO a largo
part Of the county. In short, old Bar
ton is just getting walked up, and we
will see greater results in the next year
than the one that is just past.

NOT COMPLIMENTARY. Reasons Why There Is No Flaetery In Being Called Dodo Bird.

From the Washington Evening Star.
 The latest contribution from the stage to the slang of the street has true of the theatrical managers whose com panies have thus helped along the cause O. science would plead guilty to the charge They are responsible, neverthe- less, for widespread interest in the dodo bird, which all the museums and institutions of scientific research could never have inspired in hundred years.
 It would be difficult to indicate just what IS signif1ed by such phrases as You're no dodo bird," or He's @ true dodo" But it may be taken for granted that to be called dodo is anything but complimentary. It seems to mean whatever is opposed to the ready wit and easy bearing of gentleman ike Loru Chesterfield, of whose life the comedians of vaudeville and the girls in the comic opera choruses nave hi'aiiaois a complete knowledge.
 Scientifically tine dodo has been extinct about two hundred years. From us DIG lures 1t was a round, fat bird somewhat like a swan, but so grotesque as to make one laugh at the slght ol It. ine encyclopaedia calls 1t "a genus or piros commonly ranked among the Brevipen, nes or Struthious birds It IS descripeo as a bird of very heavy, clumsy form and corresponding gait, with short thick. scale-coverea legs three rather snort toes before and one behind; large head; very large bill; the wings so short as to be of no use for flight and furnished only with a few black feathers, the gen oral plumage of a kind of grayish down, he tall merely a bunch or curiousiy -urled feathers" Dodo birds were found in great abund- ,nce in the French Islands of Mauritius md Reunion (formerly called Bourpon)' ,oth of which are in the Indian ocean.

THE BOYS APPETITE.
Some Explanation of Its Size and a
 Guess as to It's Cause.

From the New York Times.
 An English schoolmaster has just com pleted an exhaustive research into the subject of boys capacity for food. In summing up the case, he Is frank to ad- init that while he found a superabundance of capacity, there was actually little or no limit.
 Perhaps after rich cake, both fruit and plain, the first favor according to the schoolmaster, is condensed milk. This Is often eaten without a spoon by simply making two small holes in the top of the can and placing the lips against them. Then, after this come chocolates, choco- late cream. chocolate candy, chocolate cake.
 Tt may be thought I am exaggerat- ing" he says, when I say that I have seen a boy of 10 years eat in a single aft ernoon enough food to satisfy an adult party of twelve persons. l have myself known little, frail boy to eat a portion of rich cake, a third of a one-pound can of condensed milk, four ounces of mixed chocolate, handful of assort ed sweets, two oranges, one apple, four gin- gerbread cakes, dozen Brazil nuts and two large pieces of peppermint candy.
 Did it make him i'll? Did he lie down and groan and await the coming of the medical man with the stomach pump? Not he; he Just had one or two symp- toms of uneasiness, which he quickly dis pelled by a few well-drawn gapes, much after the manner of a sleeping baby. Then he walked about for time, and presently accepted an invitation to join In a game of ball"
 The schoolmaster's observations have. led to the very natural deduction that boys condition is in many ways diff ferent from that of the trained strong man. The latter could not eat the things that a boy could, because nls fitness Is mainly muscular, while the boys Is, in addition to being muscular, organic. The man may have sluggish liver or faulty kidneys, and still be a strong man, but the boy who runs and romps and turns somersaults and shouts and laughs. and twists and turns, hasn't single blemish.
