THE AMERICAN ROYAL STOCK
CLnAAf

From the Farmers Review: Kansas
City, Mo.-Breeders and importers of
draft and coach horses are taking a
lively interest in the coming Ameri-
can Royal Live Stock Show, to be held
in this city October 1924, and the in
dications are that the exhibit of horses
will be large one, and one of excel
lent quality. Messrs. Wolcott, Beers
& Co. of Kansas City have offered
$500 in cash prizes for the horse de-
partment of the show. Mclaughlin
Bros. of Columbus, O.. and Kansas
City, have just announced that they
will contribute 5000 to the fund for
prizes, and that they will exhibit so
to 40 of their best animals. Crouch
& Son of Lafayette, Ind, and j. w.
Robson, have also signified their in
tention to enter large numbers of ami
mails. 1t Is expected that the Perch.
eron association will offer a liberal
sum in prizes. The success of the
sheep department, one of the new de-
partments to be added to the show
this year, is assured. Dwight Lincoln
of Milford Center, O., secretary of the
American Rambouillet Sheep Breed
ers' Association, and f. w. Harding
of Waukesha, Wis, breeders of Short
horn cattle and Rambouillet sheep,
are working enthusiastically to get
large representation of their fayorite
breed. They have raised 500 by
individual subscriptions to be added
to the amount offered by the Kansas
City Stock Yards Company for prizes.
The stock yards company offers 5000
in cash to each of the breeds of sheep
exhibited. Leading breeders of Cots
void, Shropshire, Southdowns and Ok
ford Downs have signitied their inten-
ton of taking part in the sheep ex-
hibit. The erection of a new barn
to be used for the sheep, goat and
swine exhibit, has just begun. This
will take the place of the tent used
| last year for the swine and goat ex-
hibits.-Jno. M. Hazelton.

TREATMENT OF THE SOW.

Young sows should be literally fed
on flesh and bone-producing foods,
such as ground oats and wheat bran.
In summer they should have a run on
clover, and in winter comfortable quar-
ters, with access to the yard. 1t should
never be forgotten that exercise is
essential for breeding sows. Sows
should not be mated before they are
nine months old At all times they
should be kindly treated. A good
brood SOW is worth caring for, as she
Is more profitable than brood mare.
Her progeny mature more quickly, do
not require such expensive stabling,
are exposed to less risks, and ready
market is always obtainable for them.
In winter a ration of grain roots and
clover hay, with access to a yard for
exercise, Is an economical and suit.
able way of caring for brood sows.
The narrowing pen should be roomy
and warm, with just suffieiency of
litter. In very cold weather 1t Is
good plan to heat couple of bricks
and put them in basket, cover with
chaff, and then put the young pigs
on this until all are farrowed, when
they may be placed near the teats.
For the first twenty-four hours after
narrowing give the sow nothing but
perhaps drink of warm water, as
food or Stops may kill her. The act of
a sow in eating her young is often the
fault of the owner in feeding heat-pro-
ducing food prior to narrowing, and
giving little, or no exercise.-Prof w.

PRACTICAL VALUE OF TUBER
CIJlIN

While the use of tuberculin as a
diagnostic of tuberculosis of cattle
has been undoubtedly abused In many
instances where forcible entry was
made into private stables by unpro-
fessional, uneducated employees of
state officials, the fact remains that 1t
is, properly used. reliable and valu-
able agent In detecting the presence
of the disease. There need be nothing
hidden in the use of tuberculin. Any
intelligent farmer may use it success.
fully himself with a little instruction.
We have given such instruction many
times and results following the first
use of the agent have been more than
successful This being the case we
have always advised that tuberculin
should be employed when there is rea-
sonable suspicion in the mind of an
owner that one of his cattle may be
afflicted with tuberculosis and more
especially when the udder Is the seat
of the trouble.
We find that 1t Is a common thing
for milch COW to show the following
symptoms: The udder becomes caked
(gargetty) now and then and RECEIVERS
without treatment There is no good
reason for the attack. The COW suf-
fers no chill or fever. She eats well
and appears healthy. The milk from

never suspected by the owner. but In
these cases we always suspect it and
consider 1t by far the most danger.
Gus form of the disease so far as users
of milk are concerned
Quite recently cattle breeder sent
US the following report of COW owned
by him: "A four-yearold cow dropped
her first calf, carried full time. mir.

service yet. She was very moor

and hot. What shall do for 1t? The
COW seems In first rate general health
with the exception of one eye which
became irritated while on pasture last
summer and seems blind row. She
has had no grain for several months,

case?"
The owner was advised by us that
we suspected tuberculosis and given
fun instructions as to the making of
tuberculin test. He acted upon this
advice, procured the necessary Their
mometer, hypodermie syringe and
dose OF tuberculin and made the test
of which the following is report
temperature of COW prior to injec-
ton OF the tuberculin, 6 a. m, 1922;

lin under skin of neck at $3.50 p. m.

were taken. Next morning tempera

results: 6 a. M, 1868; a. M, 1875:
IL noon, 1872; 3 p, m, 1913; 6 p. M,
1918
This is a most interesting case. Cow
reported to be lin first rate general
health" with not the slightest sus-
picion of tuberculosis on the part of
the owner was by the above tubereulin
test proved to be very dangerously
tuberculous. Her udder was doubtless
the seat of the disease, but glands
throughout the body were also no
doubt involved in the disease. The
COW that has stood next to this COW
in stable for some time was also tested
and showed by her reaction to the
tuberculin that she is to be consids
cred suspicious and subsequent test
in few months may show plainly
that she has contracted the disease
without doubt. There is surely a
valuable lesson to be learned from
this case.-Farmers' Review.

Broke Up Gard Playino,

Gard playing" said the Major,
was with many soldiers a passion,
and in that form was as difficult to
handle as anything in the army In
the first year of the war poker was
a demoralizer, because officers and
men gave themselves up to it and be-
cause there were in nearly very regi-
ment sharpers and gamblers who
took advantage of the unsophisticated
or of those who played as a relief
from the tedium of army life. The
sharpers as a rule fell out of the ser
vice when the serious business of war
opened, but the men who were car
ried off their feet by poker were num-
bered by the hundreds in every bri-
gade.
1T was almost impossible to en-
force discipline in the matter of card
playing, because if the Colonel of
regiment was poker player he sym
pathized with the men who were
poker players, and the latter knew 1t.
So it happened that men eyaded camp
regulations and played on picket and
even in the resting intervals of fight
ing on the skirmish line. Generals
like Rosecrans had small patience
with this condition of affairs end did
much to remedy the evil. In our regi-
ment, however an incident of no
great moment did more to bring
about effective reform than all the
generals efforts and orders.
'One day it SO happened that half
dozen poker players were thrown
together on an advanced post guard
ing a road through the woods in our
division front. The boys knew the
enemy was abroad and alert, but it
was very quiet there in the woods,
and the next picket post was not a
hundred yards away. Four of the men
decided on quiet game, leaving two
men on watch The game soon be-
came very interesting and the men
on guard drew nearer and nearer to
watch the play. They, as well as the
men playing, soon We're SO absorbed
that they lost sight of their surround
ings, and when the rebels rushed the
post all were made prisoners without
firing a shot.
For few minutes there was con-
sternation. almost a panic along the
| line, but the post was reclaimed aid
the gap closed before the enemy could
take advantage of it. The Lieuten-
ant in immediate command, knowing
the men, knew how they had been
captured. The Captain knew also,
as did the Colonel, and all the poker
players of the command wore very
serious faces. Six good men had
been sacrificed, and the regiment had
been put in a very awkward position.
That night five of the captured men
| sneaked inside our lines They re-
ported that Buffer, the instigator of
the game on the picket post had in
weighed his captors into a game, and
when fairly started had given his fell
| low prisoners a slow motioned wink,
which they quickly interpreted, and
broke guard running toward our
lines. Buffer himself remained O
prisoner for six months, and when
he returned found regiment that
! played poker only when 1t was safe
to play. Chicago Inter Ocean
