Farm and Stock Notes.

Moluy corn is dangerous feed for the
horses.
Oil meal is good for the cows. 1t
will prove pay ration.
Think out your work and the doing
of it will prove much easier.
High-priced feeds will return a profit
if put into good COW, not poor one.
No kind of feeding pays in the case of
the poor COW.
Garget or congested udder can be
generally relieved by hot applications
and vigorous rubbing and kneading of
the affected part.
Good grooming, good bedding and
good feed will make the good COW
more profitable. Don't fool your time
away on the poor cow.
Concrete construction on the farm is
receiving more and more attention.
Strength and permanence in anything
built on the farm is move for econ
omy.
AS compared with the old pan meth
cd of raising cream, the separator is
as far ahead of the old method as the
thresher is ahead of the old fail meth, d
of threshing grain.
Give the boy some animal he can call
his very own. Let him raise lamb or
a calf, and then have the money when
it is grown and ready for market. In
this way he will take an interest in
things.
If you have overhauled the machin-
cry during the slack days of winter
you are in good condition and frame of
mind to enter upon the spring activi-
ties. If you have not looked over the
machinery and put it in good condition,
do it at once.
The German proverb that the manure
pile is the farmers bank depends for
its truth good deal upon the way the
banking is done. Such banks don't pay
interest if every rain is allowed to
wash away the best part of the ma
nure. The surest way to get full value
to get it out on the land as soon as
possible.
According to test made by an ex-
pertinent station it was found that the
eggs of the different breeds in order Of
their weight was as follows: Black
Minorca, Light Brahma, Barred Rock,
White Leghorn. White Wyandotte,
Rhode Island Red, White Crested
Black Polish, Buff Cochin. A great
deal may depend upon the strain. as it
is known that some hens of any breed
normally lay larger eggs than others of
the same breed.

USUALLY ONE DOSE ENDS INDIGESTION
 0R DYSPEPSIA
A Little Diapepsin Relieves Stomach Misery in Five
 Minutes

AS there is often some one in youi family who suffers an attack of indi gestion or some form of stomael trouble, why don't you keep some Dia pepsin in the house handy?
 This harmless blessing will digest anything you can eat without tho slightest discomfort, and overcome 8 sour, gassy stomach, five minutes after
 Tell your pharmacist to let you read the formula plainly printed on these 50.eent cases of Pape's Diapepsin then you will readily see why it makes indigestion. Sour stomach, heartburn and other distress go in five minutes and relieves at once such miseries as belehing of gas, eructations of sour un. digested food, naseau, headaches, dig ziness, constipation and other stomach disorders.
 Some folks have tried so long to find relief from indigestion and dyspepsia or an out-of.order stomach with the common everyday cures advertised that they have about made up their minds that they have something else wrong, or believe theirs is case of nervousness, gastritis, catarrh of the stomach or cancer.
 This, no doubt, is serious mistake Your real trouble is, what you eat does not digest; instead, it ferments and sours, turns to acid gas and stomach poison which purify in the digestive tract and intestjnes, and besides, poi. son the breat with nauseous odors.
 A hearty appetite with thorough di- gestion, and without the slightest dis comfort or misery of the stomach, is waiting for you as soon as you decide to try Pape s Diapepsin.

Advisory Verdict Returned in Favor of Williams
 vs. Live Oak
CASE A RECORD IN
 DURATION OF TRIAL
Legal Battle Valiantly Con tested and Outcome of
 Great Interest

The suit of William Mill Williams and others vs. the Live Oak Copper company, was practically decided in favor of the plaintiff $ yesterday morn. ing, when the sealed verdict, returned by the jury late Tuesday night was opened by the court.
 As this suit was an equity ease, the verdict is merely advisory to the court. Judge Lewis will probably not announce a formal verdict for some time.
 The suit had to do with mining claim, known by the plaintiffs as the Cottontail No. 3 and as the Copper King by the defendant company. The claim was very valuable and Attorney George U. Stoneman, assisted by r. c, Jacobs, for the plaintiffs, and Seth E. Hazard, assisted by George R. Hill, who repre-, sented the defendant company. made q hard fight with the result as stated above.
 The suit was in court just seven days not counting intervening holidays. This practically breaks all records for lengthy cases in the local district court
 Many legal points were involved in this suit and its progress was eagerly watched by local mining men. The yer. diet has aroused much interest, as did the trial of the case, owing to its inn portance, and the final action of Judge Lewis will be watched with interest.
 It is understood that an appeal will be taken to the territorial supreme court, by the losing side, no matter how the ease may ultimately be decided.

Entire Building Will Be in Readiness for Use Mid
 dle of January

By the first of next week. the new fire house will be so nearly completed that the lower part of the building, which will be used for the new ehemi. cal engine, can be occupied.
 The entire building will probably not be completed until about the mid. dle of January. The carpenters are well under way with their work, how ever and it will be a matter of only few days until the building is turned over to the plasterers.
 The new building will not only pro vide cOmmOdiOus quarters for the fire department, but for the city water of fee as well The fire apparatus will be stored in a large room on the west side of the building. This room con meets by means of stairway with the upper floor where sleeping rooms are provided for the fremen. A good sized meeting hall is also included on the second floor.
 The east half of the lower floor will be used by the water department. The front part of the building will be used for a public office, with room for pipe, fittings and supplies in the rear.
 A new ordinance for the regulation of the fire department is now under consideration by the city council and it is probable that the department will be reorganized to meet new conditions within a short time.
 As the new fire engine is already here and team of horses has been pur- chased for the use of the fire depart mcnt, only the completion of the new building prevents the new apparatus being put in service.
