First Sion. Of corns.

Dry corns on the feet Of horses usu-
ally go unnotced. The first symptom OF
a moist or suppurating corn is pain.
In most cases of corns in old horses
the corns have existed for such a long
period that the animal has become ac-
custorned to the slight pain. How
ever, they are restless and may paw
their bedding behind them at night.
Sometimes the first that is noticed that
may arouse suspicion of a corn is that
the horse will not travel as freely as
usual. Then lameness develops, which
will not improve by exercise. While
standing, the affected foot is advanced
so as to relieve it Of all weight When
a suppurating corn exists the laIneness
becomes severe. The hoof over the horn
is hot and painful upon pressure. II
a suppurating corn is neglected pus
may be seen escaping at the top, Of the
hoof. With a suppurating corn a horse
suffers the greatest pain just before
the pus escapes. then goes sound after
the pus is removed; lameness returns
with the accumulation Of pus.

Senator Dolliver has proposed IN

the schools that not very many ID
year olds have a fundamental educa-

freshen the ends Of the sound roots
with a slanting cut from below up
ward, so that the fresh surface will
rest on the soil. When the roots are
in their natural position, set the trees
in the center Of the hole and carefully
fill in around the roots with the best Of
the top soil taken out, sitting it from
the edge of the shovel and working it
between the rows with the fingers,
shaking the tree meanwhile to get the
earth in every crevice between the
roots. When the roots are fairly COW
cred, tramp firmly, then I'LL in with the
poorer or subsoil, tramping it firmly
as it is put in place. The tree when
set should stand little, If any, deeper
than it grew in the nursery row. The
firmer earth should be banked up
around the tree to shed water. About
a third of the top should be cut, tax
ing out weak and unnecessary limbs,
shortening in the good ones SO as to
balance the top with the roots that
have been cut away. It is a very good
plan to scatter pound or two Of good
commercial fertilizer around the tree
after it is set, lightly working it in
the soil, or mulch the trees with a
wheelbarrow load Of coarse barnyard
manure. This keeps the ground moist
and furnishes the young tree with all
the fertility it needs until the growth
has made some progress.

IAE LAST OF TIE FAKIRS.

The summit of Mt. Mckinley testifies
against Dr. Cook. Cook claimed and
was accorded the honor of having
reached its summit. There were those
who questioned and denied the truth
Of his claim but these were incon-
tinently set aside by public acceptance
of Cooks bold assertion. Now the
mountain has been ransacked for evil
dence supporting Cooks claims and
shows no mark or sign that he ever
reached the top. Had he accomplished
the ascent he would have left some
record of his accomplishment. Failing
that he could not have failed to leave
some traces of his presence there But
the mighty mountain silently witnesses
against him. Cook has faxed from
the beginning.
Travellers usually come home with a
good story and the public inclines to
credulity. Cooks career of egregious
fakery is an evidence of public gullibil-
fty. We are searching the horizon for
new StlSdtlOU. w Z UeIlduu d NSN
achievement for each new day. In our
anxiety to see, know, and hear some
thing new the tllimblerigger shifts the
little pea and all bite like suckers.
Cooks claim to have climbed the
mountain was cheerfully accepted,
mainly because it was time some dar
ing man had reached its summit. He
hid himself in the north, wired his al
legged discovery of the pole and the
world threw the hats in the air because
it had waited long for the discovery
and wanted it done and over. No
farmer in Iowa would have bought
work horse on the guaranty Cook
gave for the truth of his story Of dis
covery.
One Mr.. Phineas T. Barnum left be-
hind him one great truth among many
fakes. The public likes to be hum
bugged.'

PURELY ACCIDENTAL.

account '.the shooting was purely acct

thing was logically in line but fate
oddly enough slipped in a blank in
stead of a filled cartridge The fool
and the pistol worked perfectly to-
getller on the old fashioned and es-
tablished schedule. 1t was just one
of those little bitches which occur
when least expected.
The shooting wasn't accidental but
logical. The accident was that a blank
had been substituted for the real
thing. In this case it made the differ

and a corpse. Usually it works diff
ferently.

can for their cotton, but to spend less
of it for that which they may save by
raising more of that out Of which
comes their bread and meat
Recent estimates which come from
trustworthy sources are to the effect
that many millions of bushels of wheat
and corn, and many thousands of bales
of cotton of last years crop remain in
the hands of the producers. Conditions
are not what they used to be. Farm
ers, thousands of them, who used to
be burdened with mortgages, now have
bank accounts and money for what
ever they need or want. They can at
ford to hold their crops for the best
prices, and have done it.
This means millions Of dollars worth
Of the crop of last year are yet to be
cashed, and it means continued bust
ness for the transportation lines. 1t
means the addition Of last years sur
plus to this years products. And, by
the way, the fact that the producers
have been able to hold their products
accounts for the high cost Of living, in
part at least. With good crops this
year and the surplus Of last year yet
on hands. it will not be surprising If
the prices of these products should be
something below what they now are.
Wise farmers may see this, and many
of them who are now carrying their
surplus may see a reason for turning
1t loose. From the Evansville Gnd.)

years back in poetical quotation. As

Last Sunday the house of represen-
tatives met for addresses on the life
and character of the late Senator Nc
Laurin. Mr. Sherwood broke out into
poetical quotation:
There is no death, what seems so in
transition;
This life of mortal breath
Is but the suburb of that life elysian
Whose portal we call death"
Guess what reader Mr.. Sherwood
studied. And following him came Mr..
Spight who began with "The evil that
men do lives after them" etc. Later
Mr.. Gambler recited:
"There are no dead; we fall asleep
To waken where they never Weep
We close our eyes on pain and sin,
Our breath flows out but life flows
in"
Mr.. Rauch ended the session. He
said:
Look where we may the wide earth
Those lighted faces shine no more;
We tread the paths their feet have
worn,
We sit beneath their orchard trees,
We hear like them, the hum of bees
And rustic Of the bladed corn"

Good Hoo Sense,

1t is not a good plan to take all the
pigs from the sow, unless one or two
of them can be turned with her some
hours after to draw the milk she will
have at that time, and again, say after
lapse of twenty-four hours. The pre-
ferred way is to leave about two of the
smallest with. her for several days, and
after that leave only one for two or
three days more, by which time the
flow Of milk will have been SO grad
ually diminished that no injury will
result to the SOW by keeping them en-
tirely away from her. This extra sup
ply Of milk helps also to push the
smaller pigs along in growth and put
them more nearly on an equality in
size with their thriftier mates.-From
