NNB of the most common dis
g eases among horses Is cole
This may be caused by moldy
food, sudden change of food
on anything else that affects the di-
gestive system unfavorably. Refusing
to eat paving, grooming. looking
around at flank, lying down and get
ting up again are some of the common
symptoms of collie. A good remedy to
have on hand for collie Is turpentine,
one ounce; cannabis indica, One-half
ounce; alcohol. four ounces; water, one
pint. This should be shaken we'll and
given as a drench. In severe cases IL
veterinarian should be sent for.
Barbed Wire Cuts.
Wherever horses are allowed to run
in pastures fenced with barbed wire
there will be frequent need of treat
mcnt for wire cuts. In case the cut Is
deep. with considerable bleeding, the
first thing to do is to stop the flow of
blood. Alcohol, vinegar or alum wa
ter is good for this purpose A solu-
ton of chloride of iron is still better.
II the bleeding is from Il large vessel,
compression will have to be applied
toward the heart if an artery is cut or
away from it in the case of a vein.
Usually, however, barbed wire cuts do
not bleed seriously. They should be
cleaned thoroughly with warm water
to which carbolc acid has been added
at the rate of / to 100. If the wound
"matterateS' an opening should be made
at the lower part to allow the pus to
escape freely. The wound should be
washed daily with solution of chic
ride of zine, one dram to one pint of
water, and n little powdered iodoform
sifted on it. This iodoform aids heal.
ing, prevents the formation of proud
flesh" and keeps the flies away. A
very bad cut should be dressed by q
veterinarian, as proper treatment will
reduce the size of the resulting scar.
Calls.
When horses are put to work in the
spring, gals are very likely to form on
their shoulders. This can be prevented
by the use of collars and by accustom-
ing the horses to work gradually. The
use of pads is seldom advisable. as
they become filled with sweat and are
hard and irritating. A hard leather
collar that fits snugly to the horses
neck is the best thing to use. The
names should fit the collar Snugly.
Washing the shoulders in warm water
every night helps to keep them from
CALLING. Sugar of lead, twenty grains
to one ounce of water, or nitrate of
silver, ten grains to one ounce of wa
ter, is good remedy. The following
salve is one of the best cures for gals
after they have once formed: Pulver-
lied alum. four ounces; pulverized
bloodroot. four ounces; white lead,
four ounces; calomel two ounces. Mix
with glycerin, sweet oil or lard to make
an ointment.

chine with a great deal Of side draft.
A sweenied animal should be turned
out in the pasture until the shoulder is
filled up again. Injecting ten drops Of
turpentine under the skin at intervals
not closer than one inch will greatly
hasten the process.
Tuberculosis.
tuberculosis affects cattle, swine and
man. 1t has been clearly proved that
tuberculosis can be transmitted to
swine through the wiIi of affected
COWS, and it is very probable that -
can be transmitted to human beings i'll
the same way.
Tuberculosis can seldom be t. by
the appearance of the animal. Often
the best looking cows in the herd will
be the worst affected. tuberculosis is
easily transmitted from one COW In a
herd to another. The only safe way to
do is to get the herd on healthy basis
and keep it there. The tuberculin test
applied by II competent man is sure
means Of detecting the disease. The
diseased animals should be sold to a
soapmaker at once. If the disease
is present only in certain local parts of
the body the rest may be all right for
use. After the herd is once cleaned
up no animals should be brought on
the place that have not been subjected
to the test. In this way only can a
healthy herd be maintained.
Abortion.
Abortion is of two kinds, accidental
and chronic. Accidental abortion may
occur in almost any class OF animals
as result Of moldy feed, strains or
injuries of any kind. Contagious abor.
ton is seldom troublesome except In
the case OF cows. All cases of abor,
ton in cows, unless positively known
to be due to some other cause. should

BASKETBALL SEASON
OPENING At COLLEGE
WHITMAN CLASS RIVALRY THIS
SEASON PROMISES TO ECLIPSE
PAST SEASONS
Al. Four Glasses viii Put Teams Into
the Field to Try to Wrest College
Championship.

Practice for the inter- class bas-
ketbal games at Whitman will prob
ably begin soon after the football sea-
son. The games have always stirred
up good deal Of enthusiasm among
the students, and this year viii be
no exception. The class of 1911
which has held the championship ev-
er since they entered college three
years ago, has already begun prac-
tice for the series of big games which
are soon to be pulled off to determine
the college class championship. These
games will probably be played just
before or after the Christmas holi-
days.
Each of the classes will have eX-
ceptionaily strong men, for the fresh
men, Neil and Johnson of Vancouver
are looked upon as Corners Mccoy,
Penthouse and Champion, also fresh
men will be. remembered for their
classy playing on last years academy
team which held the championship
of secondary schools for this section
of the Inland Empire
The sophOmores will also have to
be reckoned with They are the
Du0cn winch put up SUCH CLASSY
fight against last years 'sophs." Such
men as Hill, Atwater, Dunbar, and
others are included in their number.
The present junior class has the dis
tinction of putting more men on the
varsity basketball since they entered
college than has any other class since
the history of basketball at Whitman.
They will pay Cox, Cushman and
Belt, the present captain of the var
sity. Clemens, Crawford and Sap
pington are also old hands at the
game.
Lastly the senior c,ass must not
be overlooked During their four
years in college this class has always
put up a strong team and each year
have been hard bidders for the class
championship. They have such men
as Barnes, last year captain OF the
varsity, Shubert, Hawley and Neterer.
These men have had a lot of valua-
be experience in the game and are
expected to put up for the senior class
this year, a good team.

CHIMPANZEE THE

the brain of man or monkey.

human race sprang from the monkey,
or higher developed animal of this
Species That is, the physical form Of
man undoubtedly can be iraceC to the
monkey.
Experiments with the dog and cat
have shown to nv satisfaction that
the monkey is superior in many ways
to either of these animals.
"For instance, arranged a test that
might observe the amount of intel
ligence displayed by the three animals,
and the monkey carried off honors.
placed a stick in a piece of meat and
put it within a few inches of cage in
which a monkey reposed.
1.-The animal could not reach the
meat, but he could touch the stick.
Without a moments hesitation the lit
tie fellow grasped the stick and hauled
the meat into his cage.
"The same experiment was worked
on a cat and dog, but each of these
animals failed to see the usefulness OF
the stick. They reached and claWeo
for the meat, but the fact that it might
be obtained by moving the stick never
occurred to them"
Prof Shepherd is now buslly en-
gagged in writing a treatise on his ex-
periments. Meanwhile assistants are
still further studying the animals, IN
venting new tests to determine the"
relative plane, and trying to 'civ'lize
them.
