Lice ON Cattle.

Lice on cattle indicate lack of atten-
ton and poor feed. Grease of any
kind will destroy on cattle. but grease
should not be used If it can be avoid
ed. First wash the animal with kero-
sene emulsion and follow with clear
water. When the skin is dry dust
every portion of the body with mix
ture of a peck of carbonate of lime and
a bushel of clean, dry dirt. If a sin
gle animal is infested with lice, the
others will soon be in the same con
dition unless remedies are used as
nreyentives.-Dr. Smead.

Mutton and Wool.

According to report of the depart
ment of agriculture, mutton consti-
tutes only seven per cent. of the meat
diet of the American people. while
beef and veal constitute AZ per cent.
and pork 46 per cent. However, there
has been wonderful increase In the
consumption of mutton in the past rs
years The demand for mutton is gem
orally very good in the markets and it
Is undoubtedly true that there is a
great deal of room for expansion in
producing mutton for the market The
supply of wool nowadays is entirely
inadequate for the demand and the
price Is very high in comparison.

efficient liquid laxative remedy OF known

LIGHT OATS VS.. HEAVY OATS.
They Practically Have the Same Feed
ing Value Pound for Pound.

The weight of oats per bushel varies
from 80 pounds to SO and even 55
pounds in some of the western irrigat-
ed states. The office of experiment
stations notes an experiment on three
pair of Percheron horses which were
fed light and heavy oats.
The practical results of this expert
ment seem to indicate that pound for
pound, the light oats have nearly the
same feeding value as the heavy oats.
Although the heavy oats contain a
higher percentage of protein, and car
bohydrates and less percentage OF
fber than the light oats, 1t seems prob
able that the relative proportions OF
these constituents are such that they
are more easily and thoroughly di-
gested.,
It should be remembered that al.
though the two grades are practically
equal, pound for pound, they are not
equal, quart for quart, and that in feed
ing by measure, as Is usual, allowance
should be made for heavy oats and 9
less portion given.
Since oats are bought and sold by
weight instead of measure, there
seems to be no gain made in buying
the heavy oats at an advanced price
over the light oats.

PEA WEEvILs AND THEIR WORK
Examine Your Seed Before Planting
To Discover Presence of Pest.

There is only one generation of the
pea weevil each year, says S. A. John
son of Colorado. The eggs are laid in
early summer on the outsides of the
pea pods when the young peas are just
beginning to grow. They are deep vel
low in color and glued fast with a
sticky substance, which turns white
on drying.
When the eggs hatch, the young
grubs burrow through the pods and
into the peas where they live and
grow until after the pea is ripe for
harvest.
The presence of the weevils in the
peas may be readily detected when
the peas are picked for table use by
the presence of dark spot on the
surface, as though the pea had been
pricked.
Before going into the adult stage
the grub gnaws round hole nearly
or quite through the skin of the pea
so that 1t may escape when the proper
time arrives.
A careful examination of the peas
before planting ought to reveal these
holes If they are at all numerous.
