The glycerine employed in Dr. Pierce's

properties which it extracts from native
medicinal roots and holds in solution
much better than alcohol would. It also
possesses medicinal properties of its own,

Thumps In Pigs.

Thumps is disease Of swine that is
most manifest in young and rapidly
growing pigs. 1t is easily recognized
by the spasmodic contraction and ax-
pansion Of the sides of the pig so af-
fected. Thumps is an ailment for
which there is no cure, although many
pigs subject to thumps grow to ma
turity seemingly well. 1t can largely
be prevented by proper care of the
SOW during her period Of pregnancy.
Thumps is caused by abnormal hearts
or by an impoverished blood supply.
The latter condition may be prevent
ed by providing the pregnant sow with
plenty Of range and an abundance Of
good feed. The former condition is
less likely to occur if the sow has been
properly cared for during pregnancy,
says Farmers Advocate.

THE SHEPHERD
AND HIS FLOCK

Truly sheep raising is u branch Of
farming in which comparatively fe..
farmers are engaged Yet there are
many good reasons why sheep should
be raised on farms. In the first place,
Il is well known 10 all farmers tlat
there are many untiliable spots On the
farm that form seed beds for the in
Vulnerable injurious weeds the farmer
has to coltend with. As sheep are the
best foragers of all farm animals. it is
for the purpose of keeping down the
weeds that we raise sheep. Then. too.
there is also a revenue derived from
the wool and mutton produced
In starting to develop a flock of wool
and mutton producers the ewes need
not be pure bred. They must. however.
all be OF the low set. compact. blocIy
type and of uniform quality. They
should not be bred until the second
year, by which time they are strongly
developed and will throw strong.
healthy lambs.
The selection of the ram is the most
important thing connected with sheep
raising. He is half the flock, and on
him rests its destiny. Under no COZ
siGeration should a grade ram be used
He must be pure bred. The difference
in price will be money we'll invested.
He should be typical of the breed one
wishes to develop and should have the
breed characteristics.
Severely culling and breeding only to
strong. healthy sires are the two essen
tials for developing profitable flock of
breeding sheep. In culling flock all
ewes not of the proper type should be
disposed of, thus bringing the flock as
near to a uniform type as possible
The management of the ewes from
breeding time until lambing time is of
considerable Importance. They require
proper shelter, food and care to keep
in good condition and also bring strong.
healthy lambs. A shed or outbuilding
protected from the cold north winds.
will be sufficient for shelter, provided
it can be closed during stormy wealth
er. Roots, either turnips or mange,s.
clover hay and oats form an excellent
ration for breeding ewes. These fed in
judicious quantities will bring the flock
successfully through the breeding and
lllnDiQS season. SliC anu water SnOuIu
be within easy access at all times Of
the year.
The ewes require some attention at
lambing time. They should be removed
from the rest of the flock until the
young lambs are strong enough to help
themselves. AS soon as the fioc,l is pat
to pasture they require practically no
other feed. The lambs should be sea-
rated from the ewes early in the fall
and fed grain of some kind to keep
them growing. The early fall rains are
detrimental to the young lambs. and
they should therefore be protected
from them as much as possible. The
chief aim during the first year is to
keep them in a healthy growing condi-
ton.

Makes Trade for Team of
HorScS--FindS Later thew
Had Been Stolen

E. O. Erwin was the victim of an.
other stolen horse deal Thursday of
last week, when he traded q heavy
black mare aud $25 to boot to a
stranger for light team, which later
on developed to have been stolen from
Lambert Bros Of Royalton. The
stranger, who was young man of no
mean APPEARANCE, had hired the team
of the livery stable at Royalton, tell
ing the perpetrators that be wished to
use it about an hour to 20 into the
country. S lspecting nothing wrong
they let him have it and thought
nothing more about the matter until
late in the afternoon, when the
stranger failed to make his aopear-
anc, with the team. They then tele.
phoned here, giving full descriptions
and shortly attel. 6 o'clcck the team
was found in the possession of e. O.
Erwin, but the fellow made good his
escape.
The trading was made about /
O'Clock, Mr.. Erwin taking the team
home and the stranger taking the
mare he received in exchange awav
from the American house stable. A
little later, however, the man had the
mare taken back to the American
house stable and left the city, it is
thought, on frei eht train.
j. Lambert of Lam bert Bros. livery
stable came up that evening and
got the team and buggy and drive
back with it. and although Mr.. Err
win got his mare agaio, he is minus
the $50.
