DISCIPLINE IN BERLIN.
Germans Not Only Obey Rules, Bat
Are Unhappy without Them.

Germans Not Only obey Rules, Bat
Are Unhappy without Them.
The Berliners, and the rest of the
Germans, are the most governed people
on earth. They like 1t and howl for
more. They have restrictions of all
kinds placed on the order of their daily
lives, but they are used to it. Indeed,
they have arrived at sort Of mental
state in which they look to the author
tiles to tell them what to do, and how
to do it, in every contingency. "Ver-
boten!" is the German word that has
the greatest vogue, so far as l was able
to see. forbidden ~ stares them in
the face everywhere. They are regu-
lated in all sorts of ways, down to the
manner they shall conduct themselves
in their houses. There is a certain
time for beating rugs, certain time
for playing the piano, certain time
for everything else. You can move
your household goods only in certain
way. You cannot shake a dust rag
out of the window. You cannot do this
and you cannot do that, and, they told
me, after once you get accustomed to
it, 1t is comfortable way to live. 1t
absolves you from thought If you know
what hours there are for doing your
work and how you must do it. If a
cab knocks you down in the street,
you are arrested for obstructing the
traffic. Your place is on the side.
walk.
Every Berliner does exactly what h.
is expected to do, and you must do the
same. AS an example of how well
trained they are, they are not obliged
to have guards ON the underground
trains in Berlin. The Berlin folks
know they are expected to shut the
doors, and they shut them. If you
observe their regulations you are not
disturbed, but If you violate one of
them you instantly get into more kinds
of trouble than you had imagined could
exist. All you are expected to do is
to walk chalk-line, and you can be
happy, If the regulations allow the kind
of happiness that agrees with you.

Hogs TINT MIKE Meat.

The hog raisers of Kansas station
made a test to show what kind Of a
hog grows the best meat. The weights
of hams in the test were as follows:
Berkshire hams, 231a pounds; Du
roc-Jersey, 241a pounds; Poland
Chinas, 251a pounds. These hogs in
size were as near the same weight as
possible to get them. The shoulders
of the Berkshlres weighed 21h
pounds; Duroc-Jerseys, 1912 pounds
and Poland -Chinas, 1917 pounds. The
Berkshires have larger shoulders than
the other breeds.
The butcher who saw the hogs
slaughtered thought the Duroc-Jersey
had the most fat on the back the Po-
land-China next, then the Berkshire.
The Berkshire ham showed more lean
and less fat than the Poland-Chin
The butchers considered the breed of
hogs that had the most fat the most
profitable hog, both for the farmer and
the butcher.

The BannOch.

One Of the hardest, bravest, and
most difficult to handle among all the
western tribes was the small but val
orous band known as the Bannock,
Banak, or Panaiti. This little tribe,
never numbering more than 700, has
for many years inhabited the country
between the Snake river and the noun
talns which mark the boundary between
Montana and southern Idaho.
OF ShoshOne race, but braver ano
more turbulent than any other Sho.
shone tribe, the Bannock fought the
Blackfeet and drove them back when
they came over the mountains, domin-
ated tanner tribes of Idaho and Ore
gon, and made themselves general nui-
sances when the white man took the
country.
The Bannock troubles eliminated ii,
1878, when they broke out in open war
drawing many of the Piute and Sho-
shone along with them. After consid.
cradle fighting their young chief Buf.
falo Horn, was killed by friendly In.
dian scouts, and the Bannock warriors
surrendered.
All Of the Bannock tribe, except a
fragment at Lemhi, now make their
home on the Fort Hall reservation
Some 500 of them still survive, but are
slowly decreasing in numbers. They
do not take kindly to civilization, but
seem to have accepted the inevitable
and behave fairly well Of recent years
The Bannock are very dark Of face, and
of medium stature, while their physique
Is wry and snewy, as might be ex.
pected with fighting race, equally ex.
pert In horsemanshlp and mountain
climbing.

Leg Weakness.

Leg weakness is due to chicks be-
coming heavy rapidly, so that the
weight Of their body Is too much for
their legs. This is not always an alarm
ing condition, for it denotes that the
chicks are growing fast, and If careful
~ guarded and fed properly they will
pull through all right The cause
arises from heavy feeding and forcing,
which carries the chicks forward so
rapidly as to cause the legs to fail.
Change the food to light diet of veg
etables and feed bone meal in the food.
They should also be well protected
against the dampness, and the difficult
ty VIII soon pass away. Leg weakness
Is nearly always due to rapid growth of
the body or from lack of uniformity of
heat in brooders, IL the chicks are small
enough to be kept in brooder Crowd
ing and pressing together to keep warm
at night is main cause of little chicks
having leg weakness. No great alarm
need be entertained unless the trouble
continues for too long time, but
change the food and keep the birds
dry.

Bacteria in Cold Milk.

M. q. Pennington Of the Bureau of
Chemistry, Department of Agriculture
reports that experiments on milk kept
at about the free point showed a
continuous Increase Of organisms for
I'VE or six weeks. At their maximum
they numbered hundreds of millions
per cubic centimeter, and occasionally
they passed the billion mark. Although
the milk experimental with was never
solidly frozen, yet after ten days to
two weeks 1t was mass of small ice
crystals. No odor or taste indicated
the higher bacterial content, and even
ON heating no curd was produced until
the very end Of the experiment.
