The work carried on by the bureau
relates entirely to Injurious insects
and the direct object of this work is
to discover remedial measures and to
make them known to the public. The
object Of the work, therefore, Is of the
most practical character. and every eff
tort Is devoted to the practical end. 1t
has been conservatively estimated that
the United States suffers an annual
economic loss from injurious insects of
one kind or another Of surely $7OO,OOO,-
OOO. This estimate includes the dam
age done to agricultural industries to
live stock and to stored products, to
forests and forest products, and to
other property, but it does not include
the economic loss to communities and
to the nation through the lessening Of
the productive capacity Of the popula-
ton through the prevalence Of diseases
that are carried by the insects, such as
malaria, typhoid fever, yellow fever,
and possibly many others.

Feeding Discarded Lambs.
There are various ways suggested to
make eve mother her own lamb or a
enough milk for both.
Some advise whipping the eve into
subsection, but this is very cruel and
seldom satisfactory. When a eve loses
her own lamb and it is desired to make
her own another 1t has been recon-
mended to skin her own dead lamb and
tie the pelt over the lamb that is to
be adopted.
This plan IS sometimes satisfactory
II the ewes sense Of smell is not very
keen, although it more often fails.
Other breeders have tried tying dog
near by, claiming that the maternal in
stinct Of the eve will exert itself and
it will own the lamb while trying to
shield 1t from the dog.
Perhaps the most satisfactory meth
cd when eve refuses to own her
lamb is to fasten her in between hur-
dies.
This gives her a chance to eat and at
the same time prevents her from turn
Ing around to butt the lamb. In such
position, however, the eve will often
lie down. This may be prevented by
passing light pole through the hur-
dies, resting 1t on the lower bars be-
meath her belly.
Inc eve can be confined this way
throughout the day, and If 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
orten sufhclent to bring an obstinate
eve to reason. Such hurdles can cas-
lily be made by any farmer, and it Is
wei TO nave them on hand for Just
such emergencies.

For Alfalfa BlOat.

If case of alfalfa bloat is discov-
cred in time an ounce of hyposulphite
of soda, dissolved in water, and given
as drench will prove effective. This
can be repeated every half hour for
two or three doses. Two ounces Of aqua
ammonia, well diluted with water or
common soda, in half ounce doses can
be given. Many cases of bloat can be
relieved by causing the animal to
stand with the hind feet in ditch and
the fore feet on the bank, as this DO
sition causes belching. From two to
ten minutes time is required. Some
people claim to have observed that ex-
perienced bloaters learn to get them
selves into such a position for blow
ing of the burden. Blankets wrung
out of cold water and wrapped around
the abdomen or cold water dashed on
with bucket often gives relief

ppotootinE Orchards from FPosa.
Soma of the South Texas OranRA

PsotootinE Orchards from Fsssa.
Some of the South Texas orange
growers have taken up the study Of
devices to protect orchards against
winter cold. The California plan Of
burning oil in pipes laid throughout
the orchard and perforated at inter-
walls of 80 to 100 feet seems most like
ly to be favored in South Texas. This
region has the oil at its door, and oil
is more easily handled than wood fires.
1t is certainty that South Texas or
ange orchards ought to be given this
protection, especially after the plant
ing of other and more delicate varie-
ties than the Satsuma becomes general.
1t may not be needed oftener than once
in two or three years. but at such times
it will save orchards that, lacking
this protection, might be ruined. The
orchard fires in California, where oil
Is burned. and in Florida, where wood
is handler and cheaper and therefore
most generally used, are regarded as
legitimate and necessary charge
against the business Not all the
growers make fires-there are some
men in every business that delight in
taking chances-but the majority Of
the best growers in both States, and
especially in California, are prepared
thus to save their orchard Investments

Profit In Sheen.

Sheep eat and thrive on weeds and
material that other stock do not relish.
Every fence corner, fence row and
weed patch will be more completely
cleaned by them than by the scythe or
hoe. hundred sheep could be kept
on any Western farm Of eighty acres
and one would scarcely miss the cost
OF their care and keeping. They re-
turn in fertilizers about 95 per cent
Of all they have eaten. There is an
old Spanish proverb, 1.-The sleeps foot
Is golden" originating doubtless from
the fact that sheep enrich the soil. No
expensive buildings are needed. Secure
some good range ewes and pure-bretf
ram Of some breed. and in few years
an excellent grade Of sheep will result.
We know man over on the Western
slope who runs little band of sheep
on his home ranch and gives them very
little attention, yet they keep the pas
ture free from weeds. and the returns
from the lambs and the wool net a sat

American Pigs Too Fat.

Not SO very long ago most Of the.
British varieties Of pigs had a tend
ency to produce an undue proportion
of inordinately fat specimens where,
keep was of the best. Reform Is now
wanted in the United States. The pigs
of the West have been bred too much
for fat or lard, but it will not be so
easy to cure the very hurried finishing
of the animals. An animal which has
plenty of exercise and only a moder-
ate amount Of food during the growing
stage is supposed to be developing lean
flesh or muscle, but Then 1t is trans
ferred to a form Of confinement and
placed on fatty diet such as maize.
what can it do but lay on an excess
of outside fat? The pigs which act as
scavengers to maize-fed cattle do take
fair amount of exercise, but their
diet is not of mixed enough ma ture.-

The resignation Of his charge in or
der to make money by Rev. Ferdinand
8. Rockwell has stirred the Chicago
church world. All the ministers Of the
city were discussing it. The majority
did not hesitate to condemn In severe
terms the giving up of preaching the
word of God for mercenary purposes.
Others believed that any man had a
moral right to leave the pulpit for tho
automobile business or any other bust
ness If he wished to better himself
financially.
Rev. Rockwell Is 35 years old and
has been in the ministry twelve years.
He has been remarkable as a money

CHAPTER XVI.

The dreary night watching was q new
experience in Alison's life. for she had
been too young at the time Of her moth
er's last illness to share in the long and
tedious nursing; the silence and inaction
made the hours drag heavily. Roger, "a
tigusd with his days work, was sleeping
heavily with his head against the wall.
Alison pitied his weary position, and
fetched a pillow from tho other room and
put 1t gently behind his head.
Once or twice she went across the pas
sage to look at Missile. She was glad to
find her sleeping. Sarah was at her post,
sitting blot upright and nodding. Now
and then her father spoke a few words
once he asked what the doctors had said.
Allison was thankful that they had not
informed him Of their fears.
"They do not. seem to know, papa"
she returned. gently; they think you

any more, lest it should increase his agi.
tation; she only took his hand and softly
laid her cheek against 1t, as though she
would show by this action a child's love
and devotion. Her touch seemed to quiet
him, and by and by he dozed little.
Morning came at last, and Roger
reused himself with difficulty.
Allison felt weak and faded the strain
was beginning to tell even on her vigor-
Gus vitality. She was glad the nights
inaction was over, but she felt too weary
for the days work. But Roger had not
forgotten her; he came back presently
with a refreshed look on his face, and
told her that breakfast was all ready In
the dressing room.
"A strong cup Of coffee has made me
a different man." he said, cheerfully !;
you must try my recipe, Allie" And
Allison found the benefit of his prescrip-
tion.

which holds the greatest love. You
will not be mistaken. 1t will be your

ment or two into the sightless eyes and
then turned and laid his hand on the
fathers trembling arm.
"Only God can make him see, my
friend" he said kindly. "Your boy
was born blind, and human skill cam
not help him."
The blind boy was the first to speak,
and he laid his arm around the sud-

Ground Corn for HOGS,


Owing to the very limited digestive
capacity Of swine for the consumption
Of bulky feed, corn cobmeal is not very
satisfactory for purposes of swine
feeding. This class of farm animals
can use much more concentrated feed
than any other class and are much
more Inconvenience by the presence
Of an excessive amount of crude fiber
in rations. owing to their small stom-
ach capacity. We should much prefer
cornmeal to corncob on that account,
Brood sows or other hogs with plenty
Of framework could use little corn
cob meal to better advantage, but we
see no particular reason in supplying
1t because such material contains prac-
tically no nutriment, and, while 1t Is
sometimes used to make a ration more
bulky for sheep and cattle, 1t is pos
tive hindrance to swine.
