A good time to do YOUR dehorning Is

kicks. If she kicks there Is some cause
for 1t. Look for the cause and remedy
It. It may be sore teat. It may be an
inf1amed udder or it may be that she

such is the case, treat her kindly and
she will soon learn that you are not

Clip the long hair off the udder and

TwiS Diseases.

It may not be generally known, but
many twlg diseases Of trees are spread
BY the pruning tools. One very sue
cessful nurseryman dips his pruning
knives and saws in solution
OF carbolic acid before beginning to
prune another tree, so If any germs
are on the tool this treatment will de
stroy them. AS soon as a wound Is
made it is good idea to disinfect ana
paint 1t to keep out the moisture. There
Is danger of trees contracting disease,
as the germs enter the wounds and dis
eased places result, or the exposed parts
will begin to decay as soon as the mols-
ture gets hold.-Apple Specialist

Spraying Potatoes.

Careful potato growers can no longer
doubt the advantages of spraying In
blight" years: but some doubt whether
the practice is profitable year after
year. Tests along this line have been
continued for five years by the Expert
ment Station at Geneva; and the EVIL
dence presented in Bulletin No 200,
giving details of the fifth years test
and summaries of preceding Ones seems
conclusive in favor Of the practice.
The gain each year has been profitable;
and there is already much more than
enough excess of gain over cost to pay
Tor spraying five years more. Similar
gains, though not quite. so great were
obtained by farmers under tests care
fully checked by the station and by
much larger number Of farmers who
sprayed independently.

CHAPTER XI.


For moment Frost felt hollow, and
had some ado to stand upright. He held
the handle of the door In one hand, and
with the other propped himself against
the wall.
"Zeno2" he contrived to say, in a voice
which he knew to be much unlike his
own. "Ah. The spy"
He expected some sort Of instant con-
demnation, for to his startled mind the
statement that Zeno was there meant
that zeno was actually within the house,
and was of itself proclamation of the
discovery of treason. He had time enough
&c be shot, stabbed, poisoned. abducted,
and tried for treason in his own swift
darting, frightened fancy before Dobroski
spoke again.
.Yes," said Dobroski, she is here. It
Is we'll that everybody should be warned
of him.
"Of course" returned Frost, trembling
In his limbs, and speaking with shake
In his voice. HE seems to be a danger
Gus sort of fellow"
Dohroski mounted the staircase in ST
lence, and entered Frosts room in obedi-
ence to wave of the hand from the regu-
lar occupant. Frost followed in time te
see Zeno turn In his armchair and look
at the newcomer with a casual air. This
was succeeded by start Of surprise. and

Saving the Clover.

II is a falling of the American farm
err when blade of grass or stem OF
clover makes a strong showing to try
to turn 1t into beef, mutton or pork.
Ia this effort to utilibze it he entirely
forgets that the plant may need little
winter protection. He does not under
stand how little is often sufficient to
save the plant from frost destruction.
Where the clover is not pastured It is
often allowed to perfect its seed, which
Is as fatal to the crop next year as the
winter freezing, Clipping would save
the crop where 1t Is SO forward as to
bloom and perfect seed.-Rural New

Beans Fed to Swine.

Beans can be med to swine only in
the cooked form. The pig seems to be
unable to utilize beans which are at
all hard or firm, even though they have
been boiled for some time; hence it Is
very essential that they be thoroughly
and carefully cooked, says r. s. Shaw,
Michigan To supply single feed of
them of their appetites and relish for
their food, If indeed it does not put
them off their feed.

The Asparagus Bed.

Burn off the asparagus beds now and
clean the ground thoroughly, applying
manure plentifully. All bushes and
weeds that have not been cleared from
the ground will serve as harbortng
places for mice and insects. When the
materials on the surface of the ground
which have been destroyed by frost
are dry, and the grass also dead, 1t is
not difficult to burn an entire bed over
and thus consume many seeds on the
ground.

NEW FAD OF KANSAS FARMERS

Have Public Sales to Dispose OF
Stock and Farming Implements.
Never was there such an epidemic of
public sales On the farms as this
spring. Seven auctioneers have been
kept busy and others are In training
for auctioneers' schools. Some of the
auctioneers are "Colonels." They claim
that title when they have 'cried" 100
sales. ".
But it Is only the result of the farm
ers getting rich-and Of the land boom
which causes much change Of location.
Central Kansas has reached a time
when the farmers who have made their
home here, writes an Abilene CORE
spondent of the Kansas City Star, have
acquired more material than they need
to run their farm, or are anxious to
change their residence, and SO want to
have "sale." They 60 to the county
seat and make arrangements with the
auctioneer, and have their bills print
ed. The latter are put up in the post
office or are scattered on the fence
posts of the vicinity.
The attendance on the public sales
Is usually good, nothing but bad wealth
er keeping the farmers Of the vicinity
away The women frequently accom-
pany their husbands and form an in
terested portion of the audience when
the household goods and canned fruit
are sold.
The crowd that has looked over the
possessions Of the household curious1y
and nodded at the various flaws in the
implements Of the farmyard has also
had rude sort Of entertainment. On
every sale bill in large letters appears
"Free lunch at noon," and some Of
them have the additional legend.
Bring your tin cups" This is Greek
to the city resident, but the farmer
knows what it means. 1t is a promise
that there will be great steaming cans
of coffee, with plenty Of sandwiches
and perhaps pickles. The task of pro-
viding cups for hundred or two visit
ors is a formidable one, and the pru-
dent housewife asks that the Corners

habitual auction attendant is fully
equipped with the cups to use on such
occasions.
l. During the winter all sales begin at
10 o'clock, but as the days lengthen the
noon start is more common. It all de-
ponds upon the amount Of material to
be sold. Sometimes there Is something
more than coffee to drink, but not
| often.
The amount Of property changing
| hands in this growing method Of dis
! posing of used farm material Is enor-
| nous. In this county alone probably
seventy-five sales have been held since
the first Of the present year, and they
have averaged more than $1,000 each,
or at least 100000 worth of second
hand goods disposed of by farmers to
their neighbors. The same condition
| exists In nearly every well settled
| county of the State, and so common IL
| the custom becoming that it Is unlike
| " that 1t will show any diminution
| for some time to come.

OF the 14S smokers whose hearts
were examined, 10 showed irregularity.
or the PAL non smokers whose heart
condition is recorded, 66 were slightly
abnormal and were thus classified. or
the 14S smokers 1888 per cent showed
heart uncertainty of the III non-smok-
ers, 273S per cent. Said DR.. Ander-
son:
1.-THE investigation Of the heart of
the smoker was not made to defend the
freshman, but to approximate facts re-
lative to his habits Of using smoking
tobacco. Much has been written against
cigarette smoking and much harm has
been laid at its door, but we must not
forget that it is the excessive use of
tobacco that does great harm, and that
the cigarette smoker suffers much from
associate evils. 4 few conclusions are
deduced. The 1909 man was a pipe,
and not a cigarette smoker. He smoked
cigarettes on the streets because the
use of a pipe by him is tabooed. This
custom gives him the reputation of
being q cigarette smoker. His health
and heart are not injured to the extent
generally believed, but his lung capa-
CITY Is deficient and his weight is be-
low the average. 1t Is the consensus
of opinion among most athletes that
smoking is detrimental and the ma
| iority of men training for teams do not
use tobacco. And, finally, academic
standing of the smoker is lower than
that Of the non-smoker.'

Lamb values Advancing.

During the past ten years there has
been a building up period In the lamb
trade. Lambs are ROW in demand in
every consuming center and the trade
appears to have no limit. The fact OF
the matter is that lambs are becoming
scarcer each year. Any frst-elass
lambs win be sure Of strong prices for
many years to come.

of the vital organs we're out Of their

heart and stomach on the right side.
the liver on the left side.
Prof John II. Larkin OF the College
o. Physicians and Surgeons, and Prof.
John McAllister who witnessed the au-
tupsy. were equally amazed at the
transpe sitlon OF the dead mans organs.
Tho condition they found was congenl-
tai and the organs had undoubtedly, as
far as could be seen. performed the'r
functions as well as II they were IN
their usual positions.
None Of the medical experts who saw
the autopsy performed recalled any rec
ord of such complete transposition OF
the vital organs DR.. Lehane In twen-
ty-four wears experience met with only
man whose heart was on the right side.
In that case, however the liver. large
intestine and stomach were all in their
proper place.
Prof McAuister. who is a retired army
surgeon, said that in Turkey thirty-five
years ago he had attended an autopsy
az which was revealed partial dis
placement OF the organs. DR. o HanlOn,

coroner's physician. and In the course OF

in his younger days prosperous. He
was taken from No 81 Bowery to the
