them. The science OF medical treat
ment for horses is gaining more fav-
or OF recent years and gratifying re-
suits have been obtained by the
farmers OF this county this harvest.
William Connerly farming on the
reservation fow miles south OF this
city had 26 horses aillng at one
time this summer but did not lose
one. He saved them bv careful treat
ment yhen be saw the disease ap-
proaching and by making use OF
medical skill John Temple. eight
miles northwest of the city lost only
one out Of 40 head. when asked
the secret of his success. he said that
he used his horses we'll and had
medical aid called as he would in
case OF sickncrs In a human family.
During the past few years n Is
q well known fact that the value OF
horses has Increased greatly. And
manv prominent farmers are coming
TO the opinion that Il pays TO get
good horses and then take the best
care OF them.
DR. Donahue, who has Travelled
over the county extensively and ex-
amined thousands OF farm horses
stated yesterday that he had never
seen inner horses In any section OF
the country than the farmers OF
Umatllla county kept. This fact IN
also established by the appearance
Of teams on the streets. Farmers are |
beginning to realize the value OF |
their horses and are taking better |
care OF them than ever before.
Or. w. II, Lytle. who Ia gradu-
ate veterinarian In the emnloy OF
the state ls OF the opinion that mucn |
NJ the sickness among the horses |
during harvest has been due To In
digestion. Owing To the unusually |
dry seaeon there hasIbeen less water |
aud more cellulose I'm the hay. and
this cellulose is indigestible 10 n
great degree.
Or Lytie thinks that the solution
N the problem lies In breeding and
hnding classes OF horses that are
adapted 10 the heat. Mules are
many times more capable OF endur-
ng the summer heat and dust than
lorses. And smaller horse sare more
iardy than draft horses. so Dr.
.ytle thinks that there may be a
lolution OF the problem In selection
v stocks and IN breeding.

tacular scenic features which Il Of

somewhat difficult, is being made

Crater lake gets its name from the
fact that II occupies the crater OF
an extinct volcano. Five miles In

shape, It is the deepest body of
fresh water In America. Soundings
have fixed its depth at 1000 feet.

When Animals Mralk.n

Silence is not absolutely necessary
for the safety Of wild animals, says a
naturalist who recently spent some
time in African forests. Wild animals
are not so noisy and "talkative" as
are those of domestic life; but, then,
the wilder tribes of mankind are more
taciturn than the civilized races. This
is mainly due in both cases to the lack
of social Intimacy and nomadic habits.
The carniyorous animals, the only nat.
ural cause Of fear the other creatures
have, depend mainly upon their sense
Of smell, They also hunt by night.

The chimpanzee frequently breaks

cries of other animals. The gorilla also
