Bowel Complaint In Chicks.

J Here is a remedy for bowel CON-
plant in young chickens that has not
been known to fail If used in the very
beginning of the trouble, with clean
warm, dry shelter and good wholesome
food. Boil fresh milk and after it Is
cool give to the chicks to drink. Do nut
allow them any other drink until there
are no more symptoms of trouble. Be
sure that the milk is boiled, not just
heated, as milk that is not boiled win
prove laxative to the young BIRDS

Value of Skim Milk.

There is hardly dairy farm now,
no matter how small, that is without a
hand cream separator. This machine
has saved millions of dollars over the
old method of pan skimming, which
left great deal Of cream in the skim
milk. The record for cream separa-
tor for number of consecutive runs
is less than one one-hundredth of l
per cent of cream left in the skim
milk. ..,.... .-.-a.-.s .s.a.. ... -
The modern cream separator is built
on the principle Of centrifugal motion,
the milk being placed in bowl which
revolves several thousand times min
ute, so that the skim milk, being heav-
Ter than the cream, flies to the outside,
leaving the cream in the center.
The modern dairyman feeds his
fresh, warm skim milk to his calves
and pigs, which thrive on this kind of
food as we'll as on the whole milk.
Letting the young calves run around
with the cows and get all the milk is
a thing of the past among progressive
dairymen. Skim milk, if it Is utilized
to the best advantage and turned into
calves and hogs, is one of the most
profitable products of the dairy farm.
Skim milk is also fed to chickens to
good advantage Brown in Spo-
kane Spokesman-Review.

Nail Wounds In Horses Feet.

A rusty nail in the foot of horse IN
mighty bad thing. Before the spring
cleanup there are always many pieces
Of boards lying around with nails
sticking up. A puncture from one oil
these rusty nails makes bad bruSR
and needs prompt attention.
The thing to do in cases of this kin6
is to clean the hole thoroughly ana
swab it out with 25 per cent solution
Of carbolic acid. Then use cotton sat
urated with spirits of turpentine to GIL
up the hole. Give the matter prompt
attention and don't wait two or three
days until Inflammation sets in and
pus accumulates

The ASPARAGUS Bed.

SIX ARRESTS FOR
TRAIN WRECKlNc
gpecia1 Correspondence to The Press

Gpecial Correspondence to The Press
PITTSBURG, April 16.-Already
a half dozen arrests have been
made by the army of detectives
seeking the wreckers who are OPP
Grating against Pennsylvania trains
In one of the cases the prisoner
has confessed, but he is not the one
the Pennsylvania officials are after.
They want the man or men who
have been guilty of the diabolical
practice of loosening the end of a
rail, but leaving the electric signal
ing wire intact SO that no warning
of the break will prevent the train
from rushing to it's doom.
All of the 7 wrecking attempts,
some successful, were made in this
fashion. Only one attempt was diff
ferent. That was near Youngstown,
o., where pole was laid across the
track. An Italian boy has been ar
vested for this.
Armed guards are patrolling the
tracks of the main lines 2 to every
3 miles. Particular attention is
given to the espionage after dark,
as that is when the tracks have
been tempered with.
A heavy reward is offered for the
capture of the wreckers and there
will be no let-up until the guilty
persons are taken.

THE ANSWER

A number of readers have tried
to solve the Rachel Roe relation
ship problem. Many of the answers
have been ingenious, others humor-
Gus and all interesting. Here is
the problem:
Rachel said, "My daughter is her
fathers stepsister and she is my
aunt. One CT my sisters is my
granddaughter and my husband is
my grandfather. also am my own
grandmother"
And here is the answer:
Rachel Roe married widower.
He had son with whom Rachel
Roe's mother fell in love and who
became her second husband. 1t is
apparent that Rachel's mother be-
came her daughter-in-law. Rachels
stepson became her father, because
he was her mothers husband.
Rachel Roe gave birth to a
daughter. who was, of couse, STEP
sister of her father, since both
were children of the same man.
She also became Rachel's aunt,
since she was sister of Rachel's
stepfather.
In time Rachels mother gave
birth to girl, who became Ra-
chefs sister and her granddaugh-
ter, as the child was a daughter of
son of Rachel's husband. Rachel's
husband was her grandfather, be-
cause he was the father of her sis
ter. Thus she was not only the
wife of her husband, but his grand
daughters. AS the wife of a per-
sons grandfather is that person s
grandmother, Rachel was her own
grandmother.
