Treating Bloated Sheep.

made gradually; musty grains, fod-

not be fed to sheep. 1t is not best to

through the walls of the abdomen and

gas allowed to escape. Before with

be replaced. 1t is always best after

Profitable Farming in Oklahoma. :,

The uniform size of a farm in Okla,
homa Is 1850 acres, and practically all
have as much as 100 acres each under
cultivation. In the wheat belt, which
embraces at least one-half Of her total
area, 100 acres of wheat means an
average Of $500 bushels, worth Oh the
market sixty cents per bushel. 30
the wheat crop alone is substantially
$500. Any Oklahoma farmer of In
telllgence and industry will make the
remaining sixty acres Of his farm pro-
duce enough corn, oats, fruit, garden
truck and live stock to sustain the
family and pay incidental expenses,
thereby netting him in profits the
value Of the wheat crop. Indeed, 1t
Is the rule rather than the exception
that the profits are added to from the
value of the diversified products, the
aggregate Of which runs into big
money In many cases. In consequence
of this productivity Of soil, accessible
ity Of market, cheapness Of farm lands
and prudence In management 1t Is nc
uncommon thing for the Oklahoma
farmer to clear enough in one seasons
farming to pay for bis farm.

Labels on Food Products,

A report from Washington says that
the Department Of Agriculture is TAX
ing steps to enforce the law relative
to the sale Of misbranded articles Of
food when they are sent from one state
to another. The law provides that in
each case where conviction is OBJ
tanned for the violation of this law the
culprit shall be fined not less than
$500 nor more than $1,000 for each
offense. The abuse Of labels has been
very great and widespread, Imported
sardines' come from factories on the
coast Of Maine; imported French
wines" never saw France. New
York full cream cheese" is made in
the west from partly skinned milk,
and SO on. Even Elgin butter is made
in nearly all parts of the North. How
effectively the law can be enforced
we have yet to see; and once enforced
we do not know that 1t will stop the
fraud in this particular. 1t will be
perfectly easy for every wholesaler to
keep a set Of stencils and brand the
food articles as wanted. This method
of evading the law HIS been prac-
ticed for generations. Many grocery
men now keep numerous stencils for
their -four barrel heads, and mark
them as their customers are likely to
desire. This Is common practice in
the case of a great number Of foods,
especially such articles Of food as corn
starch.

COLLEGE WOMEN AHEAD Of MEN7
II So 1t Is Principally Due to Faithful
Work.

About the only safe deduction that
can be made from the symposium of
college Presidents on the relative stand
ing Of men and women in the higher
institutions recently published, Is that
there Is a wide diversity of opinion
among educators upon this question,
AS in the question Of co-education, the
conclusions appear to be largely a
matter Of individual experience. A
man who has never managed a co.
educational institution is certainly not
in position to affirm that co-educatiOn
Is failure.
On one thing the college and univer-
|sity Presidents appear to be agreed.
Women Lave shown their ability to
hold their own with men in the Ian
guages and in general literary work.
1t is averred by many, however, that
they easily surpass the men in this
field of endeavor, and they cite statis-
tics to prove 1t. President MacLean, Of
the University of Iowa, says that in the
Iowa College Of Liberal Arts, where
men and women are nearly equal in
number, about three. fourths Of those
having the highest standing are women.
THAT they lead the men in actual
scholarship, however, l seriously
doubt" says Mr.. MacLean.
At Boston University fifteen out Of
sixteen senior students just elected to
membership in the Phi Beta Kappa
Society, the sole test being scholarship,
are women. In the University of Chi
cago, during the first ten years Of its
life, women have captured more prizes
and honors than men.
Some of the reasons assigned for the
present tendency Of women to surpass
men in scholarship in the colleges and
universities are; Greater devotion to
athletics by young men; ninety-fve
per cent Of the studies are memory
studies, and women long ago demon.
strated that they could memorize more
easily than men; women give greater
attention to details, and apply them.
selves more asslduously TO study; the
advantages to women are newer and
they are more ambitious to excel.
While in many institutions 1t appears
that the women students excel the men
In scholarship by about ten per cent.
on the average, the testimony Of most
Of those interviewed was to the effect

The average grades in most Of the CO.
educational institutions are in fact

the state, who have felt for some years
that Illinois was behind some Of her
sister states in this matter. The build.
ing Is to be 100 feet long and 66 feet

formerly occupied by the Woman's
Building, which was burned two years
ago. The material used Is to consist
Of brick, with stone for trimmings.
According to the architectural prom
ise, the building is to be one Of the
most artistic on the grounds. The
structure is to be % feet high,
with only main floor. In the
middle Of this will be the Of

Imported Cattle improved.

Imported Cattle Improved.
Dairy cattle constitute the foundation
and all-important factor Of the indus
try. We have no dairy cattle Of our
own in America; we have adopted
those originated in and brought from
other countries. Even our native"
or common" stock or scrubs" are
but mongrels Of the breeds of another
continent. 1t is impossible to esti-
mate the debt Of the dairy farmers
of this country to the breeders Of Ayr
shires and Guernseys and Holstein-
Friesians and Jerseys in their native
lands. These are the four races Of
cattle upon which mainly rest the
present and future prosperity and
progress OF dairying in America, Yet,
we must not forget to note the blood
Of the good old milking strains of
Shorthorns as an excellent foundation
upon which to build up profitable dairy
herds. 1t is needless to enlarge upon
the good qualities and characteristics
Of these distinctlvely dairy breeds, but
1t is worth noting that all Of them
have improved upon our hands. 1t
may not be that the average quality of
any Of these breeds as they now exist
in the United States is above the aver
age Of the same race upon Its native
pastures, but In all of them there are
now on this continent animals super
Tor to the best on the other side of
the Atlantic. The breeding and man
agement have been so good here that
the cows imported and their descend
ants have made indisputable records
as dairy performers, excelling any
known in the countries from which
they came. Personal observation has
convinced us that we now have dairy
cattle in the United States so good
that nothing can be gained beyond the
fancy or satisfaction in new blood by
further importations from Ayrshire or
any part OF Great Britain, the Channel
Islands, or the Netherlands. Henry
