may develop into roup. Chickens

Milk, being 81 per cent water and
13 per cent of other things, it would
seem that the milk peddler ought to
be satisfied without resorting to the
pump. Milk can be watered suffici-
emily, by pouring the water into the
COW. The COW knows how to make
milk-how much of each constituent
to put into the compound; she has
set formula, and if she can't get just
what is required the output is re-
duced; if she has more of any in
gredient than is required she don't
make more milk, but simply uses the
proper amount and throws away the
rest. 1t is necessary to the best re-
suits that the COW be amply supplied
with all needed material. Water be-
ing the chief constituent of milk is.
the most indispensable. But COW
can't make good milk from bad wa
ter, nor much milk from little water.
Water is necessary to milk produc-
ton as food, and should be given
with the same regard to times and
quantities.-Farm and Ranch.

Tobacco as a Louse-Killer.

There are two kinds of lice that
affect cattle-the short-nosed and
the long-nosed louise.
The short-nosed louse is a blush
gray color, about one-eighth or one
fifth of an inch long and about one
half as wide. The head is round and
blunt, on the front of which is a
beak armed with a double row of
hooks, which fasten into the skin to
enable the louise to feed. The legs
are long, thus enabling it to securely
it is hard to separate. The eggs are
deposited Oh the hair near the skin.
The long-nosed louise is a reddish
brown color and is about one-eighth
of an inch long and much more
slender in form than the short
nosed type. The head is long, slen-
der. as is the abdomen, and differs
from the short-nosed in that it is
only found on calves.
Treatment should be given as soon
as the pest is noticed, as it is very
hard to eradicate when once well es-
tablished in the herd.
1t is first noticed around the base
of the ears, near the end of the nose
and behind the shoulders. The old
theory was that the lice went to the
nose to drink and thus the reason for
special notice on the nose. The symp-
toms of the attack are easily noticed,
as the animal will rub and scratch,
often rubbing off patches of hair
on the neck and shoulders, become
restless, and the hair will appear
rough and shaggy.
The treatment advised for their
determination varies under different
conditions Those that have been
found to be successful are: Lark
spur STEPPED in water, with which
the animal is washed; solutions of
carbolic acid, soap and tobacco, kero
sene emulsion, kerosene and lard,
ashes, dust, tobacco or sulphur smoke
or mecurial ointments. Nearly any
of these remedies would be effective
if carefully applied.
During the last winter the expert
mental calves at the x. :. A. =.
Experiment Station became infested
with the long-nosed or red louise, and
as it was rather cold, and the wealth
er often changed, we thought it best
not to apply any of the solution, as
it would be likely to make the calves
catch cold. On consulting the En-
tomological Department, we conclud-
ed to try tobacco powder, applied
dry. The first application was given
about the middle of December. The
calves were fastened in stanchions

in limited quantities would do no
particular harm, but the first ingredl-
ent even in minute doses, If con-
tinued for several days, will set up a
chronic inflammation in the mucus
membrane of the oviduct, 'and the
hen is done laying for the season.
The capsicum, if long continued, will
produce a SIMILAR condition, though
a small amount occasionally will do
no perceptible harm and certainly
no good in any way. Take out every
thing except the charcoal and oil
meal and add some wheat or oats,
and it will be a very good egg-pro-
ducer, because it would be whole

from nearly any drug store, and a

tanned by using washes instead of ap-

without some means are resorted to

This can be done by taking all male

the old feathers out, and new ones
will rapidly appear; by this process
the mOult can be hastened consider
ably. The usual time of moult is
about ninety days, but it can be re-
duced to fifty or sixty. The time to
begin is about the last week in july
and by the middle of October birds
should be in nearly full feather.
They should be cooped up a few days
at time to accustom them to con-
fncment: taking them out occasion
ally, and handling them, which will
help tame them. The young stock
should be gone over this month, and
the most promising cockerels and
pullets should be separated and push

stock up TO standard" weight by fall
without forcing a little. Some of
the fall fairs ignore the weight
clause. and it is well that they do,
for there would be a number of dis
appointed exhibitors. The young
stock should be cooped for at least
six weeks before the fair, and
handled several times daily, and af-

Maine there is room for one more en-
try. The Bennington disaster in San
Diego harbor must take its place sec
ond only to the destruction of the
Maine, and the Bennington met her
fate in home port and within sight
of hundreds of spectators on the shore.
At 1910 the Bennington was due to
sail for Port Hartford, there to meet
the crippled Wyoming. AT 1890, with
steam up and smoke pouring from her
funnel, the Bennington waited the ar
rival of Commander Lucien Young and
Assistant Surgeon A. E. Peck. One
hundred yards away, at the landing,
a launch crew waited for the two Of
fcers. Every other man of the crew
was in his place and ready for the
word. Curious sightseers lined the
wharves, their eyes on the white gun
boat swinging idly in the stream. They
wondered why the Bennington did not
sail.

BECOMES STEEL VOLCANO.
At 1881 the watchers on the
wharves heard muffed roar and the
Bennington was blotted out in white
cloud of binding vapor. In an instant
she became steel volcano, spoutlng
dirty water and steam. Through the
roaring mist men We're Jumping into
