Hunters MauIed by LIoness.

A fight between two hunters and an
Infatuated lioness Is reported from
British East Africa.
Messrs. Lucas and Goldfinch left
Nairobi on a shooting expedition, and
when five miles from the town the
Honess was observed.
While the men stood at the edge Of
the thicket the brute bounced on Mr..
Goidfinch and threw him to the
ground. 1t bit him on the thigh be-
fore Mr.. Lucas lodged bullet in its
neck.
Maddened by the wound, the ami
NAL turned it's attention to Mr.. Lucas.
whose horse it felled and then pinned
the rider to the ground, infiicting lac
erations on his face and biting his
right arm. He was saved by Mr..
Goldfinch, who, sitting up, rolled the
lioness over with well-aimed shot.
The beast was about to spring on
its victim again when another dis
charge from the same weapon proved
fatal The wounded men were taken
back to town, where they received
medical aid.

FEED MORE ROOTS.
Stock Will Keep in Better Appetite
When Supplied with This Ration.

Il the United States cattle feeders
have gotten out of the habit Of feed
ing roots to cattle, because of the
abundance of corn and corn fodder.
The chemist has also assisted in this
movement by showing that the nutri-
tive value of roots is not great, as
compared with the nutritive value of
the grains. But roots have value
greater than that shown by the nu-
trients as determined by analysis.
There is digestive value in the acids
and in the bulk that no chemical an
alysis will determine. Roots have a
stimulating effect in that they please
the appetite.
Some roots are still fed to cattle
In the eastern states, where the Gus
tom began far back in the early set
Element of the country and has per-
sisted. Two reasons are found for
this. One" the early settlers were
from England, where root feeding was
common; two, the growing of corn is
a more difficult matter than in the
west, where the level fields make the
use of machinery possible. In New
England roots are still raised quite
extensively for stock feeding.
Some object to the feeding of tur-
nips to dairy cows, but this objection
is not to be met with in the feeding
of beef cattle and Of dry dairy cows.
Doubtless the corn and corn fodder
will be more effective when fed with
roots than fed without roots. Now
that the price of corn has risen to
such height, it is necessary that it's
feeding should be made as effective as
possible.
With the increasing price of land it
becomes necessary to make every
acre produce as much feed as possible.
A very great tonnage of beets or tur-
nips can be grown on an acre of land
if the soil be properly enriched and
properly titled, says Farmers Review.
The tops as we'll as the roots can be
fed to beef cattle. The succulent
character of the roots insures their
complete digestion by the cattle.
Mangel wurZels are particularly
adapted to feeding, because they are
relished by the cattle and can be
grown in large quantities.

PREVENTING SWINE DISEASE.
Advice by r. A. Craig, Veterinarian
Indiana Experiment Station.

The heavy loss from disease in hogs
is largely due to transmissible dis
eases. The organisms that produce
this class of disease usually enter the
body in the feed and inspired air.
Hence, muddy or dusty yards, espe-
cially If overcrowded and filthy, filthy
feeding floors, troughs and hog houses
are largely responsible for the preva-
lence of hog cholera, swine plague, etc.
AS young hogs are less liable to resist
these diseases than healthy, mature
animals, the necessity of using pre-
ventive measures at this season Of the
year is of double Importance.
During the spring and summer wal
low holes are formed in the yards and
pastures. In case the hogs run in a
large lot or pasture during the sum-
mer, 1t is often considered unneces-
sary to clean and disinfect the small
yards and hog houses and they be-
come filthy and dusty Muddy yards
are especially Objectionable, as they
soon become filthy.
If necessary, the sanitary conditions
of the yard can be improved by drain.
ing them, keeping the wallow holes
filled in and taking the hogs out for a
few months every year. The unused
lots can be cleaned and put to gosd
use by blowing and sowing them to
oats, rape, cow peas, etc.
In no place on the farm are disin.
fectants so necessary as in the hog
houses and yards. Whitewash should
be used about the houses at least once
during the year. Every two or three
weeks the houses, feeding floors,
troughs, etc., should be sprayed with
disinfectant. The tar disinfectants
are the most convenient to use. These
should be used in not less than two
per cent. water solutions. An occa-
sional spraying or dipping of the hogs
in one per cent. water solution
should be practiced.
Young hogs should not be given
crowded quarters. In order to keep
them in healthy, growing condition,
proper diet should be fed. Healthy
individuals possess a certain amount
of power to resist disease, and this
plays no small part in preventing it.
The entrance of disease producing
germs from outside sources should be
carefully guarded against, especially
if hog cholera is present in the neigh.
borhood. The danger of carrying the
germs in the mud and filth that may
stick to the shoes of person who has
walked through yards where hogs are
dying of Cholera" should be recog.
nized. Dogs, horses, cattle, stray hogs
and wagons may also act as carriers
of disease. The opportunity for crows,
buzzards and dogs to distribute dis.
ease is not great in sections of the
country where the carcasses of the
dead hogs are disposed of by burying.
Hogs from other herds should be
placed in quarantine for three weeks
before allowing them to mix with the
herd.
Keeping the hogs under the best
sanitary conditions possible and using
the necessary precautions in prevent.
ing infection from the outside, is the
most satisfactory method of avoiding
loss from this class of diseases.

insuring each animal his allowance of
the ration. The V shaped trough is
not we'll adapted for granting lambs
following weaving and should not be
used.
The diagram herewith shows a de-
sign of granting trough we have
adopted and used for many years with
excellent results. The trough may be
made any length desired. The end
piece is made out of a 2x12 inch
plank, followed in the center to light
en- the weight of the rack. The bot
tom and side pieces are made of three
fourths inch material. The stats are
lath nailed six inches apart. The
trough from the ground up is six
inches high, and the rack &c inches
high.
The great advantage of this rack
is that the lambs cannot crowd and
the grain is put before them in an
acceptable condition for feeding.

Tortoise Surprised the Cook.

The tortoise Is great sleeper. Ono
was a domestic pet in an English
house, and when his time for hiber.
mating came he selected a corner Of
the dim coal cellar for his winter
quarters. A new cook was engaged
soon after who knew nothing of tor.
toises. In few months the tortoise
woke up and sailed forth. Screams
soon broke the kitchens calm. On
entering that department, the lady Of
the house found the cook gazing in
awestruck wonder, and exclaiming
with unsteady hand she pointed to
tho tortoise: my conscience! Look
at the stone which I've broken the
coal wi a. winter?"

GRAIN TROUGH FOR LAMBS.
How One May Be Constructed at
Very Small Expense.

AS soon as the lambs are weaned
a grain ration should be supplied to
supplement the nourishment received
from the ewes. In order to supply this
ration in acceptable condition a grain
trough especially constructed so that
every animal may obtain it's share
during feeding is desirable.
When lambs are fed grain in an
open trough where the larger ones
crowd the smaller and weaker ones
away and obtain more of the grain
ration than intended for them, they
are not only preventing the growth of
the latter, but are endangering their
own appetites as well.
In granting our lambs, says the
Prairie Farmer, we aim to have our
I~ughs so constructed that every in
Gvidual has an equal chance, thus

a bank In China. On the last occasion
when such an event happened, the
emperor had the failure investigated,
and found it had been due to reckless
conduct on the part of the directors.
He at once issued an edict that, the
next time a bank failed, the heads of
it's president and directors were to
be cut off, This edict, which has
never been revoked, has made China's

A nervous, irritable mother, often on
the verge of Mysteries, is unfit to care
for children; it ruins n child's disposi-
ton and reacts upon herself. The
trouble between children and their
mothers too often is due to the fact
that the mother has some female weak
ness, and she is entirely unfit to bear
the strain upon her nerves that govern
ing children involves; ii is impossible
for her to do anything calmly.
The ills of women act like firebrand
upon the nerves, consequently nine
tenths of the nervous prostration, ner-
vous dependency, "t the blues" sleep
lessness, and nervous irritability of
women arise from some arrangement
of the femalesorganism.
DO you experience fits of depression
with restlessness, alternating with
extreme irritability? Are your spirits
easily affected, so that one minute you
laugh, and the next minute you feel
like cryingp
Do you feel something like ball ris-
ing in your throat and threatening to
choke you; all the senses perverted,
morbidly sensitive TO light and sound {;
pain in the abdominal region. and
between the shoulders; bearing down
pains; nervous dyspepsia and almost
continually cross and snappy?
If so, your nerves are in n shattered
condition, and you are threatened with
nervous prostration.
Proof is monumental that nothing in
the world is better for nervous prostra-
ton than Lydia f., Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound; thousands and thou
sands of women can testify to this fact.
