water for young Chicks.

A good watering device for small
chicks is an ordinary baking pan, such
as is used in bread-making, filled with
pebbles even full, with water poured in
to fill the pan. The pebbles should be
~ inches in diameter. The chicks
can walk over these and drink from
between them without danger of being
pushed into the water, as would be the
case in an open pan. A whole brood
can drink at one time with this device
The pan and pebbles should be washed
every day.

Doctors Versus Lawyers.

Most lawyers take keen delight trying
to confuse medical experts in the wit
ness box in murder trials, and often they
get paid back in their own coin A case
is recalled where the lawyer. after exer-
cising all his tangling tactics without eff
feet, looked quizzically at the doctor
who was testifying and said:
'You will admit that doctors some
times make mistakes, won't your
''Oh, yes; the same as lawyers" was
the cool reply.
''And doctors mistakes are buried six
feet under ground" was the lawyers
triumphant reply
Yes" he replied, 'and the lawyers
mistakes often swing in the air.'-Phil-
adelphia Ledger.

the barrel of Bordeaux mixture. The
spraying can be done quite cheaply.
The cost of four sprayings is estimated
at S1S5 per acre. This includes the
cost of labor also. In Vermont trial
was conducted by one hundred farm
ers to test the value of this spray. The
period covered five years, and the re-
suit was the increase of 70 per cent
in yield The high value Of Bordeaux
mixture as preventive of early blight
has been proved many times, and
should not be overlooked by anyone
who expects to raise good crop of
potatoes.

Early blight is potato disease
which causes more or less damage to
the crop every year. The trouble Is
most marked in unusually dry sea-
sons and is caused by fungus which
grows and spreads rapidly. The spores
Of this fungus when seen through a
microscope have the appearance OF
clubs. They enter the vines and the
first thing one notices Is that the
leaves are turning yellow. The disease
is likely to come during the first or
second week in July. 1t may be easily
prevented by spraying with Bordeaux
mixture before the disease gets hold

Horses Increasing In Value.
A table has been compiled from the
statistics of the Census Bureau and
the Department of Agriculture, which
shows that the rise in the market
value of horses has been out Of all
proportion in the last fifteen years to
the increase in their number in the
United States. From 1893 to 1908 the
horse population so to speak, in
creased 3,7S5, 900, or % per cent. In
the same period the gain in the num-
Der of human inhabitants was 21,979,-
600, or 33 per cent. But the increase
in the value of the horses in this coun-
try was no less than S75,300,0 900, or
SO per cent.
These facts will astonish many per-
sons who have supposed that the
growth of the automobile interest has
been very adverse to the horse breed
ers and to the market demand for
horses On the contrary, the prices
obtained for good horses, especially
for heavy draft animals of blood and
stamina, have risen far beyond the
hopes of horse dealers few years
ago. Horses are worth about so per
cent more in proportion to their num-
Der than they were in 1893.

out on the Flying Heart ranch in New

Skinner of the Centipede ranch to a
