SULPHUR For Sheen Lice.

Several years ago | had a flock OF
sheep that found to be badly infested
with both sheep lice and ticks. writes
A. j. Legg in the Rural New Yorker.
There were twenty-five to thirty sheep
in the flock. and as l was feeding them
ground feed l mixed a heaping table
spoonful of sulphur with their feed for
a few days. did not feed the sulphur
every day for a long time. but fed ev-
cry day for several days, then skipped
a few days. then fed again. l noticed
an improvement in my sheep in a short
time. At clipping time | could not find
either a live tick or a louise on the
sheep. One eve in particular that [
noticed had many ticks on her when I
began feeding the sulphur had a good
many dead ticks in her wool at clip
ping time. but no live ones. | was a
little fearful that the sulphur might
cause the ewes to lose their lambs. but
there were no losses from this source.

Push the Sprino Pius.

Pigs which come in March or April
and have the right breeding can be
made to weigh 200 to 25O pounds for
the October market. but they will need
the best of care and feed With spring
pigs on good pasture and fed morning
and evening with good slop of shorts
and a little dry corn they will put on
a pound of weight each day and be
ready for heavy feeding when corn Is
ripe or ready to hog down. They will
not do it on water and corn alone
The variety during the first months of
growth must be furnished to give them
large frames and vigorous constitu-
tons. so that they will have capacity
for grain feed In the fall.

Prohibit DISPLAY of Presents.

Pick and Cad: At a meeting of the
Board of Shullsburg Public Schools
held April 10, 1911, the following re-
solution was unanimously adopted.
The School Board, of School Dist. No.
6, Shullburg, Wis, is of the opinion
that the display of presents to Graduates,
at the opera house at Commencement
Exercises, is in poor taste and causes
heartburning and comment which are
productive of i'll feeling. This has been
true in the past. We do not criticise
the giving or receiving of presents, as
it is a highly commendable practice,
but, the display of them is improper
and we therefore prohibit it.

Do Ghosts Haunt Swamps?

No. Never. It's foolish to fear a
fancied evil when there are real and deadly
perils to guard against in swamps and marshes,
bayous, and lowlands. These are the malaria

ness, aches in the bones and muscles and may
induce deadly typhoid. But Electric Bitters

the result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
