Mirabeau's Trumpet Voice,

Mirabeau had a voice like trumpet, and when he raised it in threat or de- nunciation the effect was awe inspir- ing. The impression he created was greatly heightened by his manner, hls personal appearance being exceedingly imposing. He had a way of lifting his head and shaking it to give emphasis to his periods that made the heholders invOluntarilye draw back with fear.

Poultry Pointers

Have you planned for some winter
green feed.
Cabbage, beets, and turnips are all
relished by the hens.
Give more corn AS the cold increases.
The houses must be dry. Board
floors are by many considered the
best.
Fowls, like children, il not kept
busy on stormy days, are apt to get
into mischief.
Supply the food in some way so that
the hens will have to work in order
to satisfy their appetites.
Fowls love to thrash out a bundle
of wheat or oats, and it does one good
to step around to the door of the poul-
try house and listen to the merry
chatter while the fowls are digging in
the straw.

Railroad Offers Scholarship.

When the railroads offer cash
scholarships to men who Will take
work in the Agricultural college, the
economic value of agricultural college
instruction must be recognized. The
Wabash railroad, after careful in
vestigation of the Missouri College of
Agriculture, has offered eighteen
scholarships to be awarded to students
who will complete satisfactorily the
work in the Short Winter Course in
Agriculture at Columbia, which begins
Jan. 4, 1910.
These scholarships are to be award
ed upon the basis of good work in the
studies of the course. The individual
making the highest grades will be
awarded a cash scholarship of $50,
which will pay all the expenses for the
term. One scholarship will be given
to student from each of the follow
ing counties: st. Louis, Warren, st.
Charles, Montgomery, Audrian Boone,
Randolph, Macon, Adair, Schuyler,
Charlton, Carroll, Clay, Livingston
Daviess, Gentry and Nodaway.
This is the first time that railroad
company has ever offered cash scholar
ships to the students of any institu-
ton in America. 1t is confidently ex-
pected that large number of Mis-
souri, students will take advantage
of this opportunity.
Full information about this course
may be had by addressing Dean f. b.

Pneumonia in Horses.

Constant precautions should be
taken against pneumonia in horses,
which generally proves fatal.
The following history usually ac-
companies an attack of pneumonia
The horse has been doing hard or fast
work; he may have ''sweat" profuse-
ly, or, in case of cold wind, he may
have been very warm without showing
it externally; then he was allowed to
stand onblanketed, because of a
break down or waiting turn at the
scales or whsn Embarrassed was allow
ed to drink very cold water in large
quantities. An hour later when
placed in the stall he was noticed to
chill severely, refuse his food, stand
as though braced, and breathe very
rapidly. Frequently a bloody dis
charge may be blown from the nostrils.
1t is probable that eight out of
every ten cases OF pneumonia might
be avoided if proper attention were
given to the animals. This lies in the
hands of the farmer, by little care
full forethought.
The farmer should remember that'a
horse Is as conscious of a change in
weather as person. He should not
try to see how hard and long he can
work a horse before the animal gives
up. If compelled to stop work during
cold weather, blankets should be
thrown over the horses or else they
should be unlocked and put under
shelter. The team should be given
time to cool off before watering.
Cold d1aughts should be avoided.
Lastly, If an animal is reported to be
sick, it is not best to wait until there
is danger of death before help is pro-
cured. If case Of pneumonia is al
lowed to go twenty-four hours with
out treatment, the chances of recov-
cry are decidedly diminished. A
veterinarian can not get good results
unless he has the care of the animal
before infammatory processes have
developed to the point where death
is IMMINENT E. K.
