Washington, Feb. 15.-The Pinchot-

sumed it's inquiry before the largest
crowd that has yet been present at the
hearings.
L. R. CLAWS, former chief of the
Seattle field service of the general

did not write the heading"
Then followed a long colloquy be-
tween CLAWS and Vertrees, the latter
trying to get CLAWS definitely to

wrong doing.

TRADE IN FROZEN TURTLES
rortoises Are Shipped from Australia
to England-Aqent Tells Of the
New Industry.

London.-Turtle soup need no long
err be the exclusive dish of well-to-
do epicures. A trade in frozen turtles
from Queensland was started in Lon
don, the result of which will be that
the chief delicacy at civic banquets
will be brought within the means OF
thousands by whom hitherto 1t has
been unobtainable.
A large consignment of frozen tur-
ties reached this country few days
ago and was conveyed in refrigerator
cars to Birmingham.
Two previous trial shipments on a
small scale had proved successful, and
thus this third venture practically ini-
tiated what is expected to be large
commerce.
Until then Birmingham was the
center of the frozen turtle trade.
Messrs. G. Woodhouse & Co., OF
Kinghorn street, Smithfield, have,
however, become the London agents
for these turtles, and their first days
business was exceedingly promising.
Mr.. Woodhouse said that the turtles
are killed soon after capture. bled,

FIG. XXIII.-EyTRA GOOD DRAFT STALLION.
fenced with something besides barbed
wire, he may be turned out with the
other colts without his mother. With
all the grass and oats he can eat, in
addition to his mothers milk, his
growth will be rapid. A colt that
learns to eat well before weaving time
will suffer little check in growth at
that time.
The first winter is perilous time for
the colt. Too often he is given the run
of the farm, with little roughage other
than cornstalks and straw and only
very small allowance of grain or none
# all. Many farmers hold up their
hands in horror at the thought Of CIV
ing a colt grain every day from the
time he is big enough to eat until he
is marketed These same farmers,
however. think nothing of feeding their
calves literally for two or three years
and then selling them for one-third
what the colt will bring at the same
age. Size and development count for
more in horse than in a steer, and
the cost of feed is small compared with
the results obtained from liberal feed
ing. Some farmers think that colt
will get to be just so big anyway and
that liberal feeding only hastens the
process little. This Is mistake. A
colt that is stunted when he is young
will never attain the size that he would
| if properly fed. Additional weight in
draft horse is worth at least 25 cents
a pound. and it is. a mistake not to
develop the colt to the limit.

had their supper. They can roll ana
drink and. if the yard is large enough,
find little grass. They will feel
great deal better in the morning than
if kept in the barn all night.
Care at FoaIing Time.
The mare may be safely worked up
to within ten days of foaling. In fact.
light work is better for her than idle
ness would be. A mare heavy in foal
should not be required to back. how
ever nor to exert herself too much in
pulling heavy loads. Working in the
mud is also bad for her and if kept up
for any length of time is likely to
cause abortion.
The surest indication of the ap-
proach of foaling time is the appear
ance of wax on the teats, which &C.
ours about three days before parturi-
ton. At this time the feed should be
reduced in amount and warm bran
mash given at night. The addition Of
little oilmeal will clean out the in
testines and makes foaling easy. For
several days previous to foaling the
mare should be kept in box stall. SO
that she may become accustomed to
the new location. Some one should be
| at hand when the colt is born to give
assistance if necessary. Do not both
err the mare unless it is absolutely nee
essary, however.
AS soon as the colt is born the navel
cord should be tied tightly, about two
inches from the body, with string
which has been soaked in some disin-
fecting solution. The cord should be
| cut lust below the point where 1t is
tied and the remaining portion wet
with some of the disinfecting solution.
| The udder of the mare should also be
washed with the same solution. At.
tention to these details will do much
/ to prevent the attack of scours and
Joint i'll which SO often proves fatal
to young colts.
Do not be in too big hurry to. gel
the mare on feed after foaling. A lit
tie laxative feed for the first day OF
two after foaling is all she needs. In
pasture season the mare and colt may
be turned out on grass for few days
gradually increasing the grain ration
at the same time. In case work Is
pressing the mare may be put to wort
in two or three days after foaling, bu
two precautions must be strictly ad
hered to-first, do not allow the col
to follow the mare in the field. ex
hausting his puny strength in fightin,
flies and following his mother up ant
down the rough burrows; second. d.
not allow the colt to suck while tn
mare is very warm. He will be hun
CRY when his mother comes from tn
field and anxious to satisfy his appe
, tite at once, but a little wholesome re
straint at this time will teach him
lesson that he must learn some time
that his masters will is superior to hi
own.

SPECIAL DAIRY CARS
Will Garry Cattle Through the
Southern Part Of Iowa.
FEBRUARY 10 TO MARCH 2
State Dairy Expert Van PeIt Makes
Announcement of Special Train
Through Southern Iowa
February 10.

Des MOines, Feb. 12.-For the pur'
pose of Improving the dairy industry
in southern Iowa, Hugh G. Van Pelt,
state dairy expert, has made arrange
ments with the c., B. & @. railroad to
run special dairy train through that
part of the state from February 10
to March g. The train will start
from Burlington on the former date,
run west on the main line to Glen
wood and return on the Keokuk &
Western. Stops of from thirty min
utes to three hours will be made in
every town where sufficient interest
is shown. In all about 100 towns will
be visited.
Mr.. Van Pelt is to be in charge of
the train, which will be run under the
auspices of the Iowa State Dairy as
ISOLATION. Authorities on dairying OF
state, national and international fame
are being secured to give lectures and
demonstrations in each of the towns
where stops are made.
According to Mr.. Van Pelt this will
be the most completely equipped spec
fal train ever run in Iowa for educa-
tional purposes. 1t will consist of an
engine, baggage car, an Arms palace
car, two lecture coaches, and COM
bination diner and sleeper. In the
Arms palace car will be carried dairy
animals of the most approved types,
and at each town, demonstrations will
be given to illustrate to the farmers
in attendance the essential points to
be observed in selecting dairy animals
to improve their herds. The audienc-
es will be seated in the lecture cars.
In order to secure the best lecture
talent obtainable, the combination din
ing and sleeping car was obtained to
make the speakers comfortable and
permit of a greater number of stops.
Already great interest is being
shown in the proposed trip by farm
ers of southern Iowa, and Mr.. Van
Pelt is receiving numerous letters
from persons Interested in dairying,
asking that the train stop in their
town
every farmer in southern Iowa will
have an opportunity to obtain some
facts relative to the improvement that
should and will be made in milk and
butter production" said Mr. Van Pelt
in speaking of the purpose of running
the dairy special. This train repre-
sents portion of the campaign being
carried on by the Iowa State Dairy
mems association for the betterment
of dairy conditions, made possible by
the $4,000 appropriation of the last
general assembly
with the Iowa COW yielding an in
come to the state of $50,000,000, the
possibility of increasing her produc'
ton to insure an income of 100000,
600 lies within easy reach of the Iowa
farmer. The speakers will make plain
to the farmer how this result may De
accomplished. The fact that one-thir6
of the 1,450,O0O COWS now being milk
ed in Iowa are scarcely paying fol
their feed illustrates the possibility
of Improvement The average pro
duction of the Iowa COW is 140 pounds
of butter per year. 1t should be BOZ

that point if the man who milks the
cows will heed suggestions offered fol
