seldom satisfactory. When a eve
loses her own lamb and it is desired
to make her own another it has been
recommended to skin her own dead
lamb and tie the pelt ever the lamb
that is to be adopted.
This plan is sometimes satisfactory
if the ewes sense of smell lis not very
keen, although it more often fails.
Other breeders have tried tying dog
near by, claiming that the maternal
instinct of the eve Will exert itself
and it Will own the lamb while tryine
to shield it from the dog.
Perhaps the most satisfactory meth
lamb is to fasten her in between two
hurdles such as shown in the accom-
panying illustration.
This gives her a chance TO eat and
at the same time prevents her from
turning around to butt the lamb. in
such position, however. the eve will
often lie down. This NAV be prevent
ed by passing light pole through the
hurdles resting it on the lower bars
beneath her belly.
The eve can be confined this way
throughout the day, and IL the lamb
is at all lively he will manage to get
enough to eat. The eve should always
be released at night.
A day or two Of such confinement IS
often sufficient to bring an ob<tinate
eve 10 reason. Such hurdles car
easily be made by any farmer and IL
is we'll to have them on hand for just
such emergencies.

How to Treat Work
Team

Horses employed for farm work
should not be pampered but should
be fed generously SO as to sustain Vigor
and good spirits. A team ill-fed and
feeble will not accomplish much real
hard work and it is a waste of time
to hire an expensive hand to drive
such q team.
The work horses should be fed ear
ly in the morning and they should
have q liberal feeding. The comfort
and rest of the team will be vastly
promoted If the harness rs entirely
removed at noon while they are feed
ing. Allow them plenty Of time for
good meal and partial digestion before
they are put to work for the after
noon. 1t is poor policy to put them
to work right after eating a hearty
meal or upon q full stomach
If We would allow the teams more
rest at noon we would accomplish
more work than when they are only
allowed time to swallow their food At
evening let them be we'll groomed and
their legs, bellies and feet relieved
from all mud and filth.
The practice of many farmers Of
driving a team through cold water to
wash the filth off their feet and legs
is dangerous, as it causes many dis
eases that they are subject to.
A warm or Overheated team should
not be put in a cold. airy place, but
first exercised and tnen blanketed and
put in a warm stable, and after the
blankets are removed they should be
wiped dry with straw or cloths.
When a team has been exposed to
rains they should not be left to be-
come dry, but should be rubbed dry,
as chills, feyers and other ailments
often result from allowing them to
dry by the evaporation of the moist
ure from their bodies.

THURMOND'S SALARY.

AT the recent session of the City
Council the salary of Auditor Thur
mond was fixed at $Ioo per month to

cepted and fled his protest. The salary
was fixed at $Ioo notwithstanding. It
has been alleged that this salary could

respect it may be asked why not let

WARM IN TEXAS
Hot Wave Seriously Injuring Corn,
Disastrous Effect on Corn and Rice

A telegram to the New Orleans Plea
yune from Houston, Texas, says: The
heat wave continues over the State, and
half dozen or more deaths from pros
tration have been reported, among them
James Pruitt James Howell at Dallas !;
James Hollingsworth at Fort Worth,
and James WEIGH at Ardinore The
death roll now reaches thirteen for the
month, which is something unusual in
Texas The temperature is no higher
than it has been in other years, but there
appears in the interior to be no amel-
ioration of the heat at any time during
the day On the coast it is different, and
the nights are pleasant.
The effect of the heat on the corn
crop is beginning to be serious. While
the crop is believed to be practically
made, it is being scorched in some
counties, and in others it is reported as
being badly burned The planting was
late and the farmers are also so wor
ried over their cotton that they can do
nothing much to help the corn--haven't
time to put the cultivators work and
give he crop the benefit Of fresh earth.
The cotton is suffering in some Sec
lions, though the crop can not be said
TO be in a critical condition as yet
Where the crop is not affected by the
root rot the loss is not going to be
great, and the heat is certainly keeping
down the boil weevl damage.

DRY WEATHER INJURING THE
CROPS,

Webster Signal: The dry, hot weather
of the past two weeks is playing havoc
with the crop prospects and the farmers
are very much discouraged over the
outlook. The drouth is hurting both old
and young corn. Young corn, it is said,
will be almost failure if the present
dry weather continues much longer
Cotton too in some localities is begin
ming to suffer. However, Mr.. Evans of
the government demonstration work
says the farmers should keep blowing
their cotton despite the dry weather
He advocates shallow blowing right up
to picking time, and says that unless the
drouth is prolonged that fair cotton
crop will yet be made if these methods
are followed up.

THE COMMON THIEF AND
SWJNDJ ER

There is little hope of clemency fol
the common, ordinary thief or swindler
The man who steals an old coat, OF
one who will forge for or embezzle a
few dollars will not fail of conviction
when tried, and he will then be required
to serve the full term of his conviction
without any possibility of pardon.
Pardons are not for the common thief
or swindler For such there can only
be contempt
The man who by the abuse or the be-
trayal of confidence steals hundred or
more thousand dollars may be applaud
ed for his cleverness. 1t is clever to
speculate with another mans money,
and men will not hesitate to make bond
when such clever swindlers are in the
legal tolls
The difference between the common,
ordinary thief or swindter is not only of
social position but the amount of his
stealing
A few days since in New Orleans a
gentleman named Wyatt H. Ingram Jr,
former trust officer of the Hibernia
Bank and Trust Company, when con-
fronted with the indication of his short
comings attempted suicide, as it is said,
first with strychnine, second with a pis-
tol, and lastly by jumping into the Mis-
sissippi, but he was checked i'll each of
these contemplated rash acts by some
one nearby looking at him.
He did not suicide, but he collapsed
when arrested by detectives
He is published in the New Orleans
Picayune as being 'forger, defaulter
and embezzled to the amount of
100000.
He has been released on a bond fixed
at $4,000.
Could common thief or swindler
give such a bond?
And there is this difference: The
first grade defaulter, forger
and embezzler is never permitted to
linger long III the pen, where he is as
sured of some clerical, easy position.
For such the Board of Pardon is al
ways handy and ready.

that rain is badly needed In many sec,
tons no rain has fallen in several weeks
and while cotton is not suffering yet
corn is burning up. Where corn was
planted early a very good crop is made
but late corn has been ruined by the dry
weather. 1t is said however, that the
dry weather is good for cotton, as il
destroys or holds in check the boil
weevil.
