Tape Worms In lambs

Tape worms in lambs may aus very
serious losses in certain seasons, and
especially on marsh lands, says w. P.
Gilbert of Canada.
The tape worm (moniezia expansa) is
n of the largest known and may reach
ten feet in length. In cattle the same tape
worm sometimes reaches a length of
more than 100 feet. The worms are
found in the small intestines and may be
so numerous as t completely block the
bowels, causing obstruction.
Lambs may be effected at a very early
age and when only a few weeks old may
have an incredible number of these par
asites in the intestines.
Symptoms-At first there is a paleness
of the visible mucous membranes, the
fleece is brittle and the animal becomes
weak and thin and its growth is arrested.
The lamb then suffers from attacks of abb
dominal pain, has a troublesome diar-
rhoea and dies from debility and exhaus-
ton. In some cases death occurs while
the lamb is yet strong and in fair con-
dition, when some part of the intestines
may be seen to be invaginated intussus-
ception of boweD causing obstruction
and death.
No one at present knows the life his
tory of these destructive parasites, and
although many attempts have been made
to trace out the whole life cycle from the
egg to adult worm no one has succeeded.

NO NEED OF SUFFERING FROM
RHEUMATISM

It is a mistake to allow rheumatism to
become chronic, as the pain can always
effected by applying Chamberlain's
Pain Balm. The relief from pain which
it affords is alone worth many times its
cost. 1t makes sleep and rest possible.
Even in cases of long standing this
liniment should be used on account Of
the relief which it affords. IS and 50

Mr.. A. T.. McElwrath,

Mr.. A. T. McElwrath,
Grenada, Miss.
Dear Sir: We are pleased to
advise you that during the year 1907
the Grenada Nero. Co., Grenada,
Miss, sold over 1900 barrels of
Dlinty flour, more than any other
one dealer in north Mississippi.
We have shipped into north Missis-
sippi during the year 1907 over 49,
900 bbls. Of Dainty flour, and we can
say without exception that we have
not received any kind Of complaint
and every barrel has given perfect
satisfaction.
Considering the fact that Dainty
-four has been used in most of the
best hotels colleges and in many pri-
vate homes under the guarantee to
give perfect satisfaction would indi-
cate that the flour is of the highest
quality, and we assure you that we
are very much grattfed at the results.
We beg to advise you further that
we haved shipped into Grenada
county alone during 1907, 4247 bar
rels Of Dainty flour, showing that as
the years roll round Dainty flour is
rapidly gaining ground in your home
county. Yours very truly.

AS much as we dislike to be Qua OF
harmony on any question with thai
distinguished educator and elegan.
gentleman, Chancellor KincannOn OF
the University, we must enter a
solemn protest against what he asks
to be appropriated by the legislature
for the University. We certainly
hope that no appropriation Of 1886.
900 or anywhere near those figures
will be made. We know that the
Chancellor is regarded as a man that
can corkscrew appropriations at al
most his will, nevertheless we hope
that the legislative eye will not res
alone on the University but will lei
its vision survey the whole state
An acquies sence in the demands O
present day educators means bank
ruptcy to the present generation ant
tongue and grooved mortgages to thu
next.
II the state has not been exceeding
" liberal to the University in the
past, may the Lord give US a new

celled by no state in the Union in
caring for her educational interests.

Gov. Noel's Inaugural Address,

Gov. Noel'S inaugural address was
brief. He did not use a multiplicity
of words but appeared to try to
diveSt his address of useless verbiage,
yet using ornate English and specific
terms. 1t showed a c~ommendable
modesty and gave evidence of a sin
certify that must for a time, at least
beget for him a patient hearing and
the thoughtful cooperation of all who
feel a patriotic interest in the states
progress and development. He gave
no intimation of anything that might
not reasonably have been expected OF
him. Taken as a whole, his inaugu-
raj enunciations are sound and if he
can successfully get the legislative
cooperation. he will perhaps be the
means of putting some laws on Oul
statute books that will be helpful tt

present.
We were glad to see an intimatiOn
