Mr.. Joe Campbell, OF Washington,

Mr.. M. e. Mayhem. OF Roanoke.

visiting relatives.
A COW belonging to Mr.. Ferd RAN
dolph, near Billmyers Mill, was be-
ing driven to town to be sold, when
she got wild and balky and had to be
killed.
Mr.. j. Lester Miller, who is employ
ed in Roanoke. Va, is at his home
here to spend week or two.
Mr.. Frank Clendenning. who Is en-
ployed as postal clerk on the Nor
folk & Western railway, running from
Bluefield to Columbus o., is In Shep-
herdstown to spend few days.
Mr.. l. N. Walters, of Martinsburg,
spent the holidays with his brother,

Mr.. Joe Mundey, who formerly ran

Farm oNtes.

Nature has her own way OF provid-
ing for plagss and animals and people.
Man can by his knowledge assist her,
or by his ignorance retard her in at
tanning her ends.
Are you worrying about the farm
help problem? Don't do it, Remem-
Der that new things come only of ne
cessity. Use the money formerly paid
the hired help to purchase improved
machinery, and you can perform your
labor with greater ease than before.
1t is not a difficult task to keep a
farm account. Just make a system
of your own, one that is adapted to
your needs. You don't have much re-
spect for a man in any other business
who doesn't keep an account of his
transactions. Why is the farmer ex-
empt?
See to it that all of your farm tools
are carefully put away for the win
ter. Did you ever stop to count up
how much money you have invested
in your machinery? If not, do so and
you will see how important it is that
you take special pains to prolong its
term of usefulness.
Any farmer who leaves all expert
menting to the experiment station de-
prives himself of one of the most po-
tent factors in increasing his income.
You do not need increased acreage to
have increased returns. Increased
acreage means increasd outlay OF mo-
ney for equipment and increased la
bor.? Study your conditions and ex-
pertinent intelligently and you will
have increased income with less la
Dor.
Not for years have ! seen better
corn fodder than at the present. but
1t is being cared for in the usual way
most of it standing in the shock.
What waste, If the fodder cannot
be shredded it should at least be put
under cover or in ricks or stacks. No
rough food loses so rapidly in feeding
value as fodder when exposed to the
elements, and yet no food is given
such poor care. The farmer who has
silo and puts his fodder into it is
suffering no loss Of the kind, but If
he does not have assilo he should do
the next best thing possible--shred it.

Matters Of Importance TO The AgrcuNuPst and HOrucuNurst

ignorant for their unsanitary condi-
tons.
Now, a word about that dreadful
scourge, consumption, or tuherculo-
sis 1t is scourge of the greatest
magnitude, one of the most disastrous
diseases that can effect cattle-pro-
: country. We cannot arrive at
ling approaching exactitude with
regard to the damage it infiicts, as a
large number of cattle destroyed are
never reported, sand this because il
requires an expenditure of money be-
yond the means of the masses. If the
readers of this letter will carefully
consider the location of the majority
of the cases of consumption, typhoid
fever diphtheria, etc, in the city of
Martinsburg, they will not find them
in the homes where the milk is sup
piled by the city diaries, but in the
majority Of cases, where a COW is
Kept for private use-perhaps in an
Differentiated stable; the sanitary
conditions of the stable may be per-
feet, but the place where the milk is
kept be the SOURCE of infection. There
cannot be doubt that the manner in
which cows are kept has great in
auence, not only on their own health,
but on that of those who consume
their product Unsanitary conditions
may render such secretions as the
milk very hurtful, and poisons may
be even conveyed through the medi-
um of that fluid without the animals
themselves exhibiting much, II any,
disturbance. tuberculosis is very
common in cattle, and especially in
dairy cows, and the flesh of these
will produce consumption in other
animals fed upon 1t, particularly
young animals.
DR.. Goler, a famous physician,
speaking at a pure foods convention
at Crawford, n j., last week, had this
to say:
I'VE make the American baby d
pensioner on a four-legged, broad
faced animal which may serve very
good brand of milk for 150-pound
calf, but which doesn't know anything
abouts catering to 10-pound baby.
The only way to make cows milk
good Tor a human baby is to feed it
to human mother, and let her sys-
tenn distill it for the baby Physi-
clans Mwho are authorities on child
rens Miseases tell us that not more
than rs per cent. of mothers in af
fluent circumstances in the United
States are today able to nurse their
babies. The breast-fed babies of the
slumss do better that the bottle-fed ba-
bies Of the avenues. Out of LA ba-
bies who died under the age Of one
year Of whom kept records. % were
breast-fed and 1872 were bottle-fed. =
