OAK LEAF DIET KILLS
 CATTLE IN SOUTHWEST

The stockmen grazing their cattle on the National Forest in the Southwest, especially iu Col. orado and New Mexico, have suf- fered serious losses during the present summer through the cat tie eating oak leaves.
 In that section ot the country the season has been unusually dry and grass extremely scarce. To eke out tue scanty forage supply, the cattle have browsed heavily on the scrub oak, which covers large portions of the range. Or diuarilv the stock does not browse much on the oak and the little they do get, taken with the other food, is not injurious, but when, as in the present season, the oak browse furnishes a large propor- ton of the daily food of the cat tie, the results are serious.
 The oak leaves and sprouts con- tain a large percentage of taunic acid. The action of this acid on the stomach is extremely injurious and the losses have been unusually severe. The symptoms of the disease are staring eyes, feverish and blistered lips and nose, the animal ceases to graze or seek for food, standing in one place for hours at time. The coat be- comes rough and the hair IS all turned the wrong way, as in cases of loco poisoning. The animal does not chew it's cud and in a comparatively short time it be- comes too weak to remain on its feet and death rapidly follows.
 So far as is known, the only available remedy for this trouble is linseed oil given as drench in amounts from one to two quarts. The oil appears to overcome the injurious effects of the tannic acid and if the ,.l:sease is not advanced too far and the animal can be fur nished sufficient food so it will not be forced to eat the oak, it will generally recover. The best method, of course, in handling the trouble. is, if possible, to get the cattle away from the range where the oak is found and fur nlsh them with plenty of fresh green feed to build up az gain.

 The Meua fans loo ksd hue, but when the homo boys went up for their last chance, they succeeded in finding the De Queen pitcher for sever al safe hits and filled the bases. This put the De Queen boys up in the air and two men were walked home by the visitors pitcher giving two men base on balls. Mid great confusion a new pitcher was put in and Mena boy hit safe two bigger, bringing in two more scores. The game broke up amid wild cheering. score 4 to } in favor of Mena.

FUN AT ROPING CONTEST.
Conductor Butler Took Steer Ride
 and Furnished the Sport.

The broncho riding on Satur- day was about the same as on the previous days. The steer roping was better for the steers than usual. Out of about a dozeu steers that were let out, more than half of them got away safe aud sound. Truscott was the @nly one who got every one he went after. The first one he roped and tied in 42 seconds. The other one in 2b seconds. This was not as good as he had hoped to do but it was by far the best time made during the Fair.
 In the steer riding Conductor ]. A. Butler was the real star.
 After steer had been ridden around for a while, Mir. Butler asked if it would carry double, and was invited to try for himself. He went down then and climbed on behind and started off very well, but the other man then purposely Tell off and pulled Mr. Blu Ter with him. Mir. Butler was up immediately and again got on the back of the steer, this time alone. The steer then started off but suon stopped, for one of the men had had roped him around the horns. Then the rope got around the steers front legs and be tripped again, landing his rlder on tue ground. Mir. Butler then took the steer by his hind legs and turned him over. MT. Buffers hip was bruised a little by the first fall, but he was mol hurt otherwise.
