SCOURS in CALVES
OR CALF CHOLERA
Differs from Similar Disease IN
Grown Animals.

Scours in calves or calf cholera in
many instances differ from diarrhoea
in grown animals, and has special fea-
lures of it's own, taking the form of
Infectious intestinal catarrh, which is
far more serious than the diarrhoea
of the full grown animal.
Sourcs in calves generally appear
suddenly. A perfectly healthy calf
may be seized all at once, apparently.
without any change in food or, care.
The symptoms of this infantile diar-
rhoea usually appear during the first
two or three weeks of life. In many
cases scours appear with a few
hours after the animal is born, and
the calf may die within from "a to
as hours unless it receives prompt
and proper treatment.
1t is common for the calf to be af-
flicted with scours Immediately at
birth. even before it has had time to
suck or take any nourishment what
ever. The faces or manure is very
thin and watery. 1t has a sour, dis
agreeable odor and is usually light col
ored. The excavations are frequent
and expelled with force.
The first indication Of scours is the
soiled condition of the tail, loss of
appetite. sunken eyes, sometimes the
saliva flowing from the mouth, no at
tempt being made to swallow. They
have a staring coat, grow thin, and
lose strength rapidly. Death usually
follows in from IL to "a hours unless
prompt measures are taken to check
the disease. If allowed to continue
for any length of time the securing
will be accomplished by congestion
and liberation of the intestinal mu-
cous membrane caused by the irritat-
ing secretions. AS a result of this
disease partial or double blindness is
sometimes brought on.
To prevent scours in calves, proper
care should be given to the mother
while pregnant, that she may be able
to give birth to healthy calf AS
scours is a germ disease, it is impor-
tant that the calf be free from this
disease when born. Cows afflicted with
the disease of abortion convey this
disease to their offspring. 1t is for
this reason that calves so often die of
scours before they have even taken
nourishment. 1t is therefore very nee
essary that the COW be kept free from
disease in order to obtain healthy
calves.

LAXATIVE FOR
WOMEN FREE

There is a great difference in the
purposes to which a laxative should
be put. Tablets and pills, salts, etc.,
are usually violent purgatives or
cathartics, and altogether too power
full for the average person.
A woman at all times needs only
mild laxative-in fact, none other is
needed by anyone, weak or strong
though they may be, for the object is
simply to move the bowels, and If a
use Of violent one?
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin has
earned well-deserved vogue among
women and children and old folks
people who must necessarily be care
full of what they take.
1t is a liquid laxative tonic and adj
bowel remedy before the American peo-
pie. The price is only 80 cents or 81 bot
tie, as it comes in both sizes, and all
druggists sell it. Its pleasant taste and

such like digestive complaints. Its use for
a short time will remove the trouble en-
unnecessary. Its tonic properties build up
the stomach and intestinal muscles so
that they act naturally again. That this
is so is the experience of many heads of
families, like Mrs. Brannan, of Alvarado,
Va, Mrs. X L. Stout, of Louisville, KY,
and numerous others; in fact, way out in

Calves born afflicted with the germs
OF this disease in their system are in
a position to spread the disease to
ether calves that they may come in
contact with in the same herd, or if
shipped to other herds. This is an
other proof of its infectious nature.
To prevent and overcome scours in
calves they should be given medicines
that prevent fermentation of food to
allay irritation and congestion, soothe
and heal inflamed mucous membrane,
act as an antiseptic, as this is quite
necessary when the disease is due to
a germ.
The most important factor in the
raising of cattle is their care while
young. Do not think that you are do
ing the correct thing if you are only
managing to keep the life in the calf
until it is three months old, and then
have it get fat on grass before the
winter comes. If you do this you will
be apt to have lot of stunted calves
with their digestive organs destroyed
which will never make strong, healthy
cattle, and will not be good for either
dairy, beef or breeding purposes.

Time for Making Box staIIs.-This
is the season to make box stall or
two in some convenient part of the
barn, If not already done, for con-
venience and safety when a young
calf or colt arrives. Many losses have
occurred that might have been avert
ed with the outlay of little work.
There are but few barns or stables In
which box stall cannot be easily and
cheaply constructed. We owe a duty
to the animals in our charge to pro.
vide every comfort and convenience.

No Trouble with AfaIfa.-When
trouble follows the feeding of alfalfa
to horses it may be set down that the
difficulty is with the feeding, not with
the alfalfa. The change should be
made gradually. The high protein of the
alfalfa naturally acts as a stimulant
to the horse, and this is noticeable in
the increased demands upon the
urinary and perspiratory glands, where
disorders and complications are most
likely to result. For colts or growing
horses alfalfa hay or pasture is ad-
mirably adapted to produce strong, Wig
orous growth. One thing is important
with the alfalfa fed horse-that it
be given plenty of exercise; otherwise
the animal is apt to become soft and
easily sweated. Alfalfa is the best
possible feed for mares with foals.
Let them run to a stack OF alfalfa hay.
while carrying the unborn colts. Moth
ing else is so good for them. Alfalfa
develops the colt, and the mother so
fed has plenty of milk for its nour-
ishment at this fast growing period.

TELLS ATHLETES TO
AVOID MISPLAYS OF LIFE

A sermon on athletics was delivered
by the Rev. w. r. Greenfield in Sill
verbrook NJ. E. Church last evening
10 the members of the new Silverbrools
Athletic Association, who attended in
a body. Mr.. Greenfield drew lessons
from the life of Samson. an athlete
who failed, and his text was Judges
1920. He declared that there were
many good men in the athletic world
who would not sell out character and
principle. He cited the example Of
BILLY" Sunday a prominent ball play
er, who did what he could to uplift his
fellow man. Mr.. Greenfield told the
boys TO be good natured even when
they made errors on the ball field and
there were cries of get out Of the
gaNe."
Mr. Greenfield said he was glad that
the Sunday baseball bill had been so
overwhelmingly defeated and told the
boys to do what they could TO see that
such a law was never enacted in Del
aware as Il might lead to opening
other business on the Sabbath.
He warned them to beware Of the
Deliah OF the twentieth century and
told them TO be men in the game OF
life. He said the last game will soor
be played and that the boys were
making a home run and would be sorry
for all errors and misplays made.

FATHER CURRIER
AIDS INDIANS
Makes Strong Plea in St.
Thomas Church in Be-
half Of Red Man

A strong plea for the Indian was
made by Rev Father Currier Of Wash
ington. in st. Thomas Catholic Church.
Fourth and Grant avenue, yesterday.
He preached at $50 and 1890 a. m,
and again in the afternoon. He said
there are 225.000 Indians in the United
states and 10000 of them are as bar
barrie as they ever were He declared
that when the white man first came
anong the Indians they were received
with open arms and ninety-nine times
out OF a hundred when the Indians
took up arms against the white man
Il was the white mans fault, as the
latter had taken his land away from
him. The white man had placed FIRE
water and fire arms in the hands of the
Indians
Father Currier said he had been com.
missioned by Cardinal Gibbons four
years ago TO visit the different
churches and present the needs of the
Indians. He urged that a league be
formed in st. Thomas parish to aid
the Indian and that each member give
twenty-five cents a year. He stated
that II each Catholic in this country
would give the price OF one glass Of
soda this would net a sum Of $4,000 a
year. Americans he said, were do
ing so little for the Indian who had
been so much wronged.
The indications are that a strong
league for aiding the Indians will os
/ formed In st. Thomas parish.
