The following bulletin issued from the
Purdue experiment station was prepared by
r. A. Craig. assistant state veterinarian:
The season is approaching when some
feeders will go TO the stockyards TO pur-
chase sheep for fall feeding. Those who
will do so will not have the benefit OF pre-
vious experience. Those having such ex-
perience will as rule have found the ven-
improbable side is the danger OF intro
ducing scab. This disease is parasitic and
the stockyards are permanently infected
Sheep passing through the yards, although
free from disease when entering, seldom
escape without infection. The regulations
of the Bureau of Animal Industry seek to
control the danger by keeping separate pens
for affected sheep, and 10 prevent the
spread by requiring that all diseased sheep
intended for sale for feeding purposes shall
be dipped twice at an interval of ten days,
and all other sheep not affected, but In
tended for feeding purposes, shall be dipped
once before shipment.
This department has been making a
special effort to trace the origin OF all
cases of scab reported from this State. and
from the findings, concludes that these reg
ulations are insufficient. OF the last 4,5O6
head of scabby sheep reported. 1t has been
found that 4,l61 had previously come from
the stockyards. This leaves only 345 cases
of scab reported coming from our farms.
1.-The loss upon the 4.l61 head was greater
for feeding purposes that did not develop
disease. Besides, this large number gives
us the reputation of having scab that Is not
deserved. Greater security can be secured
by dipping upon the farm. but our advice
is to let the sheep alone.

What to Ea,

What to Eat.
There are exceptions. of course but, on
the whole, domesticated fowl would seem
to derive their name from the condition Of
their roosts, and court sleep under unnec-
essary disadvantages. Some log-built hen
houses of our forest States are cleaned only
when the proprietor feels inclined to try
an experiment with domestic guano.
The owners of many noted poultry farms.
so-called, stray into another mistake. Their
roost sheds are kept scrupulously clean,
but the assembly grounds. where their pets
are supposed and often compelled to pass
the long summer days are only huge wire
cages-inclosures fronted, fianked and
topped with acres of wire netting, and ex-
posed to the full glare of the MONDAY sun.
And ii so happens that all the wild ances-
tors of our domestic chickens were deni-
zens of the woodlands, delighting in tree
shade and what hunters call cover
thickets where they can hide and scratch
up the accumulated leaf-litter 10 their
hearts content.
An owl, chained in the blaze of the sun,
will generally die before the end of a sum-
mer week, and IL happiness depends upon
congeniaT surroundings. wire pen roosters
must often pray for the advent of night as
hard as Long-pole Wellington at Waterloo.
