Cure for the Dog Evil.

The Rural New Yorker says: The
only cure for the dog evil Is Il law re-
curing the owner of one male dog to
pay small sum for metal tag, with
the name and address Of the owner
and the date, placing a practically pro-
hibitory tax on additional dogs and
female dogs, making it the duty of the
proper officers to kill all dogs not tag
ged. When dog Is killed while wor-
rying sheep or other domestic animals
or fowls. the tag would show the own
er and recourse could be had for dam
ages done. A law something like this
was on the statute books OF Indiana
several years ago and worked well;
the revenues from that source were
trcbled, and the dog population de-
creased two-thirds. but for some rea-
son it was repealed If Il majority
of farmers could be induced to put n
small flock of sheep on their farms
sentiment would soon be nodded to
back such law. Now the dog owners
are in the majority and sentiment
trends the other way. The same com
plant may be made In most sections

NOT MAKING Much
Commissioner GARFIELD RE.
PORTS ON BEEF TRUST.
big Six" Slaughter rs Per Gent
OF the l2,5OO,OOO Head Killed
in the United States, but Prof
its Were Small-prOfifS on Car
Lines. However, Very Large.

Washington, March 1.-THE presi
dent sent to congress today the report
on the alleged beef trust which was
prepared by Commissioner of Corpora
tons James r. Garfield, according tC
the resolution which passed the house
OH March of last year. The report
covers the price of cattle and dressed
and what the organization received
the conduct and profits of the corpora
tons engaged in the beef industry.
Summarized, the report says that six
packing ompanies.-Armour. Swift
Morris, National Packing Company
Schwarzchild &; Suizberger and Cud
ahy-are designated as the "big six
In the year 1908 they slaughtered A.
per cent of the $500, 600 head slaugh
tered in the United States, the net av.
eraee profit of Armour, Swift and
SchwarZchild 81 Sulzberger during
that year was 80 cents a head, not in
Guiding the Incidental profits. The
year 1902 was less profitable than usu
al. During some months the packers
actually lost money on every head
slaughtered.
In 1903 the price of cattle fell sharp
ly, chiefly becauses OF large increase
i'll the supply.
The six leading packing companies
are apparently not overcapita lied and
the percentage of profit on the gross
volume of business is comparatively
small
According to tho report Swifts
profits during the last three years were
only two per cent on the total sales.
Cudahy's profits last year were II
per cent on the total sales.
The report says that the profits OF
the private car lines in the packing in
dustry per mileage is very liberal, be-
ing | 1 to Z per cent. While the big
six control the trade of the large cen.
ters, in small cities and towns the con
troll is not so general. The fact that
they handle only 40 per cent of the
business of the country would appear
to indicate, according to the report, the
existence of active competition.

Do not expect eggs when the hens
are moulting.
If the fowls be stinted in food they
cannot lay up material for eggs.
Aside from the question of ccrs a
warm quarters is a great saving of
feed.
Chickens that are of Il markctahle
size should be fattened now as soon as
possible.
In having food constantly before
fowls the great risk run Is of having
them too fat.
Ten days after the hens are cooped
NJ with a cockerel the eggs viii hatch
true to the mating.
From this on chicks cannot be ex-
pected to grow very rapidly unless
particularly well housed and fed.

is worth more than pound of lice.

To Prevent Smut in Wheat.


Wheat should not he sowed without
being first treated if it has any indica-
tons Of having been exposed to smut.
The trouble can be obvlated by dip
ping the seed wheat In a solution that
is sure TO prove effective. Smut Is car
rled over from year to year on the
seed wheat. The mode of treatment
Is as follows: Dissolve one pound of
copper sulphute In twenty four gal
Ions of water Soak the seed in this
solution for twelve hours, after which
1t should be drained off. Then the
seed should be soaked for ten minutes
in lime water made by shaking one
pound of lime In ten gallons of water.
The seed should then be dried MS soon
81 possible. Care should then be taken
that the seed wheat Is not eaten by
chickens or other stock. as the sulphate
Is q deadly poison. 1t Is the expert
ence of farmers that land that bore
Smuty wheat the previous year will
not bear smutty wheat If the seed Is
properly treated. the smut spores in the
ground having been all killed by the
cold weather

Helena, Mont, March 7.-Governor
Toole has deposited with the secretary
of state the railway commission bill
without his approval. The governor
objects TO the bill because it names the
commissioners, holding that power Is
lodged with the executive; because it
extends the terms of the commissioners
beyond two general elections, holding
they should be elected at the first OPP
portunity; because it does not provide
for the summary removal of II com
missioner by the governor in case of
abuse of trust, and because there is no
limit set to the Indebtedness the COM
mission may create.
The governor also returned without
his signature the bill designed to pre-
vent the fusion of political parties.

st. Petersburg, March 6.-The fate
of Gen. kuropatkin and his army

on the result of the fighting almost in

Is going on beyond the line of breakers :;
whether part of Gen. Nogis force is
in full career for Tie pass, or whether
the Japanese have staked all in cast
against Mukden.
The lmminence of the peril on the
west wing has withdrawn attention
from the operations on the center and
left, where the fighting has been ex-
tremely heavy, and ON the left espe-
cially, where the Japanese gains are
sufficiently great to cause apprehension
Military critics here point out that
the japanese have put themselves in a
critical position by the extreme extern
sion of their lines, laying themselves
open, as they did at Liaoyang, to the
possibility of most effective counter
stroke and probable defeat if Gen. kur-
