KICKED BY A HORSE.
Ell Davis jaw Almost Torn Of
by Campbell's Big Bay
Stallion.

Ed Davis, well known horse
man Of this city, was badly injured
this morning by big bay stallion
belonging to MIR. Campbell, the
race horse trainer Of Minco. The
injury is in the nature OF a kick
on the jaw, which has laid Mr..
Davis up ia bed with bandages all
over his face.
About 9 o'clock this morning
Mr.. Davis was driving the animal
to a sulky and stopped in front of
Chaney's harness store to have
some part of the harness adjusted.
He had seated himself 10 the rig,
and as he stopped to gather up the
lines he lightly touched the stall
lion with the whip. In place Of
starting, the animal kicked up
bis heels, striking Mr. Davis in the
face with his hoof. The cork OF
the iron shoe struck sqnarely on
the point of the jaw. knocking
him from the sulky and tearing a
great hole in the nesh. Mr.. Davis
got up and started TO a doctors
office, but tainted after going few
feet and had to be assisted.
He was taken to Drs. Penqulte
& Browns offices, where his in
jnries were attended. He was
bleeding from the left ear, while
the gaping wound in his jaw WAS a
frlghtfnl one. Il required several
stitches to close it, and NJ. Davis
viii be in bed at the Early hotel
for several days as result Of his
injuries.

Treatment Received
in Blackwell.

The delegation of Odd Fellows
who have been attending the Okla.

morning, tired hut enthusiastic
over the treatment accorded them
in our sister territory. In order
that Chickasha people may see the
kind Of time they had we repro
duce the following account Of the
parade from the blackwell News:
Yesterday was the gayest day
ever seen in Black we'll. The or-
cAsion for the gaiety was the ODD
Fellows aud Rebekah's parade. Jt
had been announced that tae pa
rade would start at O'Clock from
Odd Fellows bali, and would
traverse the principal streets of
the city. In view Of this fact,
long before he time set to start

little to The gaiety of the scene.
Then came beautiful float bearing
the inscription, in large letters on
the sides, "Visit the Sick" In the
tioat lay an ostensibly sick man,
attended by two nurses clad in
snow-white gowns, and by the
side of the bed sat the doctor.
In the line there were some 800
Odd Fellows, followed by a large
number OF carriages containing The
Rebekahs and their lady friends.
Then came another handsomely

PREVENTING MILK FEVER.
lsaiae q Potash, Properly Aani.is-
tered, Has Proved . SpeciAc for
This Disease.

Some time ago we. gave in this de.
partment of the paper full account
of the new Schmidt method of treat
ing milk fever with a solution OF
iodide of potash infused into the nd
der; we are now in a position to give
instructions for the prevention of the
disease by use of the same drug prior
to parturition. Where it is feared
that cow will suffer from an attack
of milk fever she should be given q
half drachm of iodide of potash twice
a day for q week, two weeks ahead
OF the expected event and three times
daily the last week, that is for one
week prior to calving This lis for
fat cows or such as have had q pre-
vious attack and recovered, for such
cows are likely to suffer second and
fatal attack. The drug is very strong
in its action, and where given for q
long time prior to paturition will be
apt to kill the calf and run the COW
down in condition. It is necessary
to get the COW under the control of
the drug, but it should, if possible, be
done in such way that the life of
the calf is not endangered. We be-
lieve that it is safe to give a half
drachm of the iodide of potash night
and morning for one week prior to
calving, and then two drachms at one
dose when it is seen that the cow is
about to calve, and this treatment will
prove effective in most cases, unless
the cow is very fat or predisposed to
an attack by reason of a previous
attack At the same time the preg-
nant COW should be we'll exercised
daily and should have soft food rath-
er than lot of grain. Corn seems
to be an especially dangerous food
for heavy milking cows that are get
ting little exercise prior to calving,
but bran is found to have good eff
feet as preventive in that it does
not fatten but keeps the bowels free
~ open. The iodide should be given
IN little water as drench or may
be mixed in the drinking water or
soft food, as it has no bad taste, and
cattle will not object to it's presence
in food or water. 1t will lessen the
hrst flow of milk, but the flow will
come back in a short time after the
COW gets over the. effects of the drug.
and less milk is better than risk Of
having a case of the fatal disease
mentioned. Cows liable to have the
trouble should be kept off green
grass.-Farmers' Review.

Registered Bulls in Demand.

The demand for registered bulls of
the various beef breeds ought to re-
main good for years to come, say
Live Stock and Wool Growers Jour
nal. Breeders of registered cattle
have it largely in their own. hands
to maintain good prices, and this they
can do if they will make steers Of
the medium to fair bull calves, al
though they are from good families,
and subject to registration. Moth
ing will hurt the registered bull so
much as selling inferior animals for
breeding purposes. No matter how
good the herd, there will necessarily
be some inferior animals, and breed
ers can ill afford to sell such except
for slaughter. Breeders should work
to create a permanent demand for
bulls, and this can only be accom-
plished by breeding animals whose
progeny will show up all right.

A oNE-cAR RAILWAY.
A Line Not Many Mile. from WASH
ington That IL Run ON Prim-
itive Methods.

"Very few residents of Washing
ton realize that within few miles
of the capital of the United States
is an electric railway conducted in
such a. manner as to be regarded as
positively ludicrous by those accus-
toned to up-to-date transportation
methods" remarked a well-knowll
Washingtonian to Star reporter.
II had occasion to visit some friends
who own suburban home to the
north of the city few evenings
ago. Having received explicit in
structions as to how to. reach their
place, I bravely started forth. Upon
reaching the terminus of one of the
big railways that extends out from
the city I alighted according to di-
rections and made my way to dim
ly-lighted car that stood on a near

Der of other passengers and dis

ment until just prior to the sched-

closing the doors the one individ-

around proceeded to collect fares.
When he had registered the same he
proceeded to the front platform and
the car began to move. Then it was
that realized that the conductor
was also the motorman.
"As additional passengers were
gathered up along the route the
solitary employee would allow the car
to run itself while he walked back
to receive the cost of riding from
the latest to take passage. The ex-
perience was novel one for. me.

that the road operates only one car

places the key in his pocket, and,
leaving the car on the track exposed
to the weather, trudges home. In
the morning he unfastens the chain
and resumes business. According to
my friend the car is always on time,
and furthermore the stockholders
regularly receive dividend of six
per cent. But, it was told me, the
car never receives coat of paint,

dred bushels more corn, which may be
unloaded from corn crib driveway,
thus utilizing every foot of, roofing
capacity in the building.
Small doors which are kept tightly
closed, are arranged along the tops of
bins next to the driveway and by the
aid of portable chute attached by
hooks and staples to side of bin, the
grain can be unloaded right from the
wagon to the bin very easily. This
saves very much heavy Juggling of grain
at threshing time and facilitates the
handling. The outside row of bins are
arranged in same manner, only the
wagon is driven up alongside outer end
of granary building where the chute
and portfolios are arranged.
At A, in the granary compartment,
IS left space 6x16 feet where the fan
ming mill is kept ready for use, along
with scales, bag-holder, truck, bags,
measures, etc. The, door from drive
way to this room will be found very
convenient if at'any time it is desirable
to she'll corn from the crib and store it
in granary bin for feeding. The cost
of construction would be hard for me
to estimate, owing to the difference in
cost of various materials. It is bet
ter to put such building as this upon
stone or tile pillars, owing to the fact
that all parts will then be accessible
to cats and dogs, which will lessen the
chances of the enterprising rat or
mouse. The building might be erect
ed Of hewn or sawed square timber
framed together, or balloon frame.
Any good carpenter can figure an es-
innate, after knowing the material
that is available for its construction.

Protein for Dairy Cows.

For many years the German stand
ard established by DR.. Wolff was ac-
cepted as final. A 1000 pound cow
was supposed to require 2.5 pounds
of digestible protein. Recent inves-
LEGATIONS have partially discredited
this theory. The best dairymen now
prefer to feed protein according to
the capacity of the individual COW.
1t is understood that some small
cows will make good use of ration
that contains the full amount of
protein while other cows that weigh
considerably more, will waste part of
it. because of their inability to con-
vert it into milk.-Agricultural Ep-
