LIVE STOCK NOTES.

Cold air will not injure sheep, but
a wet coat and cold wind may prove
as dangerous as it would with any
other animal.
Never make your colts or horses
face a blank, dark wall all the time
while in the barn. Give them plenty
of light; it is better for their eyes.
Blind the hogs that have the habit
of eating chickens by hanging a strip
of tin, four inches by eight inches in
size from their ears. This will stop
them when almost everything else has
failed.
Keep the sheep in out of storms, but
let them run out every pleasant day.
If any of the ewes seem weak. sep
arate them from the flock and give
them extra care and feed until they
grow strong. If any seem delicate
fatten them and send them to the
butcher.
Don't be in hurry to dispose of the
old SOW. If she is good one to raise
pigs, she will be profitable to keep
until she is seven or eight years old.
The newborn colt must have milk
during the first half hour of it's life,
or the chances are that it will die.
See that the colt is strong enough to
start the milk. If it is not, help it.
Corn-stalks are valuable fodder for
sheep, and if they are cut green and
properly cured, and then put through
the shredder, there will be but little
waste.

HOW TO AVOID HOG CHOLERA
Poor Food and Bad Care Causes the
Disease-PracticaI Way of Pre-
venting 1t.

Hog cholera is largely due to bad
care and poor food. Give the hogs
good grass pasture, with shade and an
abundance of pure running water. A
light feed of fresh millfeed slop may
be given twice a day if the pasture
is short. Mix one handful of salt in
one peck of wood ashes and spread it
on clean sod twice a week. In the
west the following is given as a pre-
ventive to herd of so half-grown
hogs every other week when cholera
is prevalent in the neighborhood: Tur-
pentine, one-half pint; mix it in the
water, give it every second week;
Venetian red, one pound; mix it in the
water every alternate week.
Cholera affects the bowels most. and
swine plague most affects the lungs.
Cholera in swine is very similar to ty-
phoid fever in man. DR.. w. B. Niles
of Iowa says: TO prevent hog cholera
or swine plague, SO manage your hogs
as to prevent their coming in contact
with other hogs. Keep them from all
water save from deep wells, protect
them from visits of strangers and dogs.
and before introducing new hog into
the herd keep him quarantined for 80
days some distance from the herd.
If the disease makes it's appearance in
the herd burn every dead hog at once
and remove the healthy ones to fresh
grass pasture. Use disinfectants
freely; whitewash pens, fences and
troughs with hot lime. Mix two
ounces Of carbolic acid in each bucket
of wash or wash the boots and cloth
ing of attendant with hot water and
plenty of SOAP"

FALL PAINTING.

The majority of property owners
are under the impression that spring
time is the only painting time. But
the fall of the year offers several adj
vantages to the painter. One of the
most important is that surfaces are
almost sure to be dry, and there is no
frost or inner moisture to work out
after the paint is applied.
Pure white lead-the Dutch Boy
Painter kind-mixed with pure lin
seed oil (tinted as desired) gives a
winter coat to a building that is an
armor against the severest attacks of
the winter rain, sleet, winds and snow.

ARRANGING PRICE OF HORSE
Farmer, Who Is the Greatest Con
sumner, Fixes Value of Animals,
Instead of Shipper.

The agricultural use of horses shows
liberal increase annually. The order
of commercial trade has been reversed
in the past decade, says the Drovers'
Journal. Only few years ago the
great wholesale markets established
prices, but to-day the value of horses
is appraised by farmers, who are the
greatest consumers. Ii the farmer
needs horse he outbids the country
shipper, and the animal goes to take
its place in operating farm ma
chinery, instead of use in the city team
ing industry Shippers find them
selves competing against the farm er
for industrial chunks where farmers
formerly competed with each other to
sell their surplus to country shippers.
1t is no longer the sales at wholesale
markets that establish prices, but rath-
er what the farmer, the great con-
sumner of horses, bids for the animal
for personal nse.
There is marvellous agricultural de-
velopment in progress in the north
western states and the Canadian north
west, that has wonderfully increased
the demand for horses for farm work
Dollar wheat and 70-cent corn and 9TH
Ell agricultural products correspond
ingly advanced in price have revOlu-
tionized husbandry and stimulated the
breaking up of vast areas of virgin
soil, as well as encouraging more sci
entific farming in old agricultural dis
tricts. This expansion of agriculture
and the great profits realized from hus
bandry have broadened the demand
for horses for farm use. A new era
has daWned on the farm, where horses
and machinery do the bulk of the work
in tilling the soil and producing the an
nUal crops. The farmer is master of
the situation, as the profits of his
profession justify him in paying high
er price for horses than is possible
for the city consumer, who score OF
years ago established the commercial
value of horses. The prosperity of
the farmer is of vital Importance to
the horse industry

THE DOCTORS WIFE

A trained nurse says: I'm the

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality OF the goods. This trou-
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great

that the action will at some time ter.
