BUYING A HORSE.

II you want TO buy = horse, take
no mans word for it. Your eye Is

in harness. Unhitch him and take

him around II be has any failing

himself, aud If be walks right into
anything you know he Is blind. No
matter how clear and bright ais eyes
are, he can't see any more than bat
Back him, too. Some korses show
their weakness or tricks tn that way
when they don't IN any other. But
be a. smart a. you can, you'll get
stuck sometimes. Even the experts
get stuck. A horse may look ever so
nice and 20 great pace and yet have
fits. There isn't a man who can tell
it until something happens. Or, be

again, and soon stops for good, and
nothing but derrick can start him.

MARBLES OR GRUBs IN CATTLE

Recent observations made and ~
ports received by this department in
dictate that MARBLES or grubs in cattle
are unusually prevalent. In some
instances they are reported to have
caused the death Of young cattle.
Marbles or grubs are the laFval
form Of the OK bot fly or heel fly
'hypoderma lineata) The grubs or
MARBLES are noticed as little Jumps or
lunches just beneath the skin Of the
back. Directly over each MARBLE
there is a small pore or opening In
the skin through which the grub
breathes.
Life history The adult heel fly
or warbls fly is a little larger than
the common house fly. In the latter
part Of the summer she deposits her
eggs upon the hair Of the cattle in
the region Of the heels The presence
OF the flies among the cattle Cansss
much annoyance. The animal ticks
the part and the larvae are taken into
the mouth. From the throat or
gullet the small larvae bore their way
through the tissues until they locate
beneath the skin Of the back, where
they increase In size quite rapidly,
40 that the Jumps are large enough 10
be noticed by the latter part Of
December or early January. In
February or March these larvae or
Rrubs work their way out through
the small hole in the skin, fall 10 the
ground, burrow into dirt or litter.
pupaie, aud some weeks later trans
form into admit flies.
Treatment Treatment should b.
gin as soon a. the MARBLES are noticed
upon the animals backs. Most Of
the MARBLES or grubs can be destroyed
by putting turpentiDe, kerosene. crude
petroleum or mercurial ointment in
or on the opening through the skin
directly over the MARBLE. If the
opening ia very small IL should bd
enlarged by using a smooth pointee
stick. \ machinist's oil can having

oellent method Of applying the medi.

squeezed out and crushed: or they
can be crushed beneath the skin bv
plncbing the lump. or killed by in
sorting pointed wire or large blunt
pointed needle. 1t il important tina,
any grubs squeezed out or ESCAPING
naturally should be destroyed, or they
will transform into adult flies.

BORDEAUX MIXTURE.

BORDEAUX MlAlC hE.
For two or three seasons the eN
pertinent station Of Cornell university
has been trying to discover the best
method Of making bordeaux mixture.
In bulletin 156 this station gives
directions which are simple and very
eficacious. Into a barrel Of water
suspend a gunny sack or other porous
bag, containing , pounds Of copper
sulphate blue yitrioll for every
gallon OF water in the barrel. II this
is suspended near the surface Of toe
water at night it will be in solution
by morning and ready for use. Into
q water-tight box or other open re-
eeptacle place some freshly burned
caustic lime, the amount to be de-
termined somewhat by the amount OF
spraying to be done. but from 40 to
so pounds Of lime can be slaked at
one time. Add sufficient water to
thoroughly slake all the lime and
keep we'll stirred so that the water
may come in contact with all par
ticles. This thorough stirring IL i'm
pOrtant.
After the lime is all slaked, cover
with water and it is then ready for
use and may be kept for any length
Of time desired if it is always kept
covered with water Ferrocyanide
of potassium may be purchased from
the drug store, and comes as a solid.
One ounce of this dissolved in
ounce Of water will be sufficient for
testing many barrels Of the bordeaux
mixture. When it is desired TO
begin spraying, there should be pro.
vided two empty barrels. Into one
barrel dip three gallons Of the copper
sulphate solution after it has been
thoroughly stirred. This Will pro
vide the 6 pounds of copper sulphate
in case pounds we're dissolved per
gallon Of water and will be sufficient
for making one barrel, or - gallons
bordeaux mixture. Dilute the three
gallous with ten or more gallons Of
water.
From the lime box dip from five to
ten pounds Of slaksd line into the
empty barrel Add water and stir
thoroughly until the milk Of lime is
produced, after which dilute with
some ten gallons more Of water.
Pour the milk Of lime thus diluted
through sieve into the dilute copper
sulphate solution. The quantity Of
lime to be added to the copper
sulphste is to be determined by the
ferrOcyanide Of potassium test. After
adding a small amount Of the milk Of
lime to the copper sulphate solution,
add to the mixture a drop of ferro-
cyanide Of potassium II brick red
color is produced where the drop
strikes it indicates that more lime is
needed. Continne adding the milk
Of lime until no reddish color will he
produced when the ferrocyanide Of
potassium is used A few trials will
enable one to Judge very accurately
as to the amount of lime required
A little surplus lime will do no harm.
IL paris green Is to be used II
should nov be added. Take four
ounces Of paris green and place it In
a dish and add water Just sufficient
to make a paste, stir thoroughly until
q homogeneous mixture il formed.
Pour this paste into the mixture Of
lime and copper sulphats and stir
vigorously. Pour the lime and
copper suIpbate mixture into the
spray barrel, which should have a
capacity Of forty-6ve to fifty gallons,

Cheating the Farmer.

Missouri farmers are being
worked by one Of the meanest
tricks on the pike. AS this
shrewd device for separating the
honest toiler from his coin is
likely to find it's way north, the
awful details are here given:
In the first act Of the tragedy
a stranger appears on the road
near the farm house, diligently
searching for a lost diamond
ring. AS he does not find it he
offers 500 reward for it's re-
covery.
He goes away without finding
the ring and shortly afterward a
tramp picks up a ring. The
farmer who is to be the victim
offers the tramp $25 for the
ring, expecting to get the 500
reward. The tramp hesitates.
but finally accepts it and leaves.
When the farmer cannot find
the stranger he grows suspicious
and has a jeweler examine the
ing. 1t is generally pronounced
worth Is cents.

AMES JURY DIsAcREES.
Court Orders Fourth Trial to Beui,
Immediately.

Minneapolis, Oct. 22-After being
out since . o'clock Wednesday after
noon the Jury in the bribery case oi
former Mayor Ames came in during
the morning and announced a disa,
greement. The members were reluc,
tantly discharged by Judge Harrison.
1t is understood that the vote stood 5
to for conviction.
All Wednesday night the jury wres-
tied with the hard proposition. After
taking few ballots it was plainly seen
that there was no possibility of reach
ing verdict. The majority favored
conviction and reasoned with the
minority to no purpose.
Thursday evening at 5 O'Clock the
jury again emerged and informed
Judge Harrison that the outlook for an
agreement was hopeless and that a
years deliberation would be of no
avail. The foreman requested the court
to discharge the good men and true"
but this was denied and the Jury re-
manned out all night.
Judge Harrison has ordered that the
fourth trial Of the ex-mayor be taken
up Immediately.
