FEEDING THE FARM HORSE.
Faulty Methods Responsible For Many
Diseases.

Faulty Methods Responsible For Many
Diseases.
Probably the most important part
in the care Of the horse Is the feeding.
A large majority of the diseases among
farm horses result from faulty feeding,
says G. L. Barnes of the Colorado ex-
pertinent station. Many make the mis-
take of not securing the best feed.
Their trouble begins when partially
matured, musty, dusty feed is used.
Several points should be taken into
consideration when the amount Of feed
is decided upon, whether the amman Is
accustomed to dry feed and If in good
flesh or in thin, emaciated condition.
A horse should not be fed large
quantity Of hay and grain without ex-
ercise. Many think that because q
horse is thin in flesh no work should
be required Of him. 1t is always best
to work the flesh into the animal
rather than to fatten him as steer.
A good plan is to have stated pro-
gram as to time and amount Of feed to
be given. Horses by. all means should
be fed regularly. Hay requires time
for mastication and digestion. For
this reason the large percentage Of
hay should be fed at night. Horses
soon learA the manner of giving food
and water, so it is best to have one
fandar and hava this Dlan followed
out for all the horses The horse
should receive some water the first
thing In the morning. After watering
feed q small amount of hay and then
give grain after the hay has been
eaten. By this plan the feed, which Is

Pasture the Pics.

The pig that has been supplied with
an abundance Of pasture and small
grain ration during the summer
should weigh from 100 to 175 pounds
by the latter part of September. A
short period of heavy feeding will
finish them for market at 200 to 275
pounds in weight. Pork grown in
this way will yield far more profit
than where the process is strung out
longer and the hogs are finished to
heavier weights. The cheapest gains
are always made while the pig Is
young. 1t Is poor policy to starve and
stunt pig during the first few
months. expecting to make 1t up by
heavy feeding later. 2he 100 pound
pig makes gains 20 per cent cheaper
shan the 200 pound Pig II equally
thrifty.-Live Stock Reporter.

HOG WISDOM.

Get the young pigs out on the
ground as soon as the weather
will permit.
Nothing will retard the growth
or cripple d young pig so quickly
as to keep it on a board floor.
Sunshine is good for the pigs.
Keep them in 1t.
Keep the sleeping quarters and
feeding places clean and thor
oughly disinfected.
The swill or feed barrel should
be we'll cleaned and scalded
every week, at least.
The hogs should not be allow
ed to become lousy.
T. Spray with some good disin-
fectant and grease al over. and
don't neglect the inside Of the

The present great producing dairy
cow Is the result of mating togeth-
er the best mixers and repeating
the process with the selection Of the
best of their offspring. For over
1000 years the people of Holland
have pursued this course without
break, and the great Holstein breed
of cattle is the result. They have
been much improved in America.
especially in recent years. Rapid
progress is being made in increas-
ing their production largely because
of the businesslike methods their
breeders have adopted Of requiring
their cows to prove their dairy abil-

The Shire blood Is producing a
draft horse that has no superior.
Some three or four years ago one
of the greatest honors ever won by
a grade gelding was won in the
auction ring at Chicago. This horse
was the roam Shire gelding that
sold for the handsome sum of $780,
This price still stands as record
at the greatest horse market In the
world. Shire breeders and import
ers have paid very little attention
to showing geldings. They have /
been satisfied with the splendid j
showing they have made in the
markets of America. II man let's
the horse buyer know that he has
some grade Shires to sell he will
get price for them that is seldom
reached by any other breed. The
Shire stallion shown was a winner
at Chicago.

Some Census Figures.

Census reports show a growth in
Uncle Sans big family, during the last
decade of nearly u per cent or 16,145,-
0O0
With one exception this growth is
said to be unparalleled in the history
of any country, past or present.
We note especially the great growth
of American cities since 1900.
For example, gain of SO per cent
in New York, against only 4 per cent
for London.
We could fill many pages with inter
esting quotations from these reports.
In the push and rush of business few
people stop to think of our bigness.
Take our great state of Texas. 1t
is twice as large as Great Britain and
Ireland, plus Denmark and Belgium,
or a third larger than France or Ger
many.

pounds less than for carrying it only
452 miles by rail.
To ship this same consignment from
New York to Payette by rail would
cost 1915 per 100 pounds. In other
words, it costs more than three times
as much to carry this consignment by
rail from New York to Payette, a dis
lance of about $500 miles, as it does to
carry it four times this distance on
water.
This consignment was shipped from
New York for Portland, via Cape
Horn, on November %, 1911, and is due
to arrive in Payette in March.
When the Panama canal is complet-
ed the time required to ship from New
York to Portland will be greatly short
ened, and the freight rate presumably
will also be reduced.

PAYETTE, Dec. 27-An Interesting
study in freight rates is furnished by
reasn of consignment of goods being
shipped to the Golden Rule store of
this place, of which E. W. Equals is the
manager This consignment of goods,
which is classed as first class freight,
is being shipped from New York to
Payette via Cape Horn and Portland.
The freight rate from New York to
Portland, via Cape Horn, an all water
route, a distance of over 10000 miles,
is $1.15 per 100 pounds. From Port
land to Payette, by rail, distance of
only 452 miles, the freight rate on this
same consignment is $1.25 per 100
pounds.
1t is thus seen that this consign-
ment is carried by water route over
10000 miles, for 10 cents per 100

oil would therefore be regarded as
hostile act.
At this time, Italy made it under
stand that she did not desire the SOY
eringnty of the two provinces, which
she was willing should remain will
Turkey but merely military protect
crate that would enable Italian capita
to develop the country without opposi-
ton and without the imposition of I'M
necessary cost In addition, Italy made
it known that she was willing to pay
an indemnity that was placed, unoffii-
tally, at 250,000,000 lire.
In reply to this note, Turkey sent
the ship Derna to Tripoli loaded with
arms and ammunition, and an attempt
was made to land them. The ship was
sunk in the Tripoli harbor by the Ital-
ians and a 24hour ultimatum sent to
Turkey demanding that in the interests
OF the future development of Tripoli,
both materially and morally, Italy at
once be granted a protectorate.
During these "a hours Italy sent or
ders to it's fleets, so that even before
the "a hours expired, Italian war YES
sells were cruising off the immediate
coast of Tripoli, ready to make a
forcible occupation, and other fleets
were dispatched to strategic points,
as well as along the Turkish territory
bordering on the Adriatic.
AS consequence, when Turkey had
refused the ultimatum at the expira-
ticn of "a hours, Italy declared war
and was prepared to effect speedily a
complete blockade of the ports of
Tripoli and Cyrenaica, to begin hostile
action against the few Turkish tor
pedo boats and cruisers that happened
to be away from protecting ports.

No 1.-The Steps Leading Up To Ac.
tual Declaration of War Were
Most MethOdicaI.

ROME, Dec. 27.-All of the steps
leading up to Italy-s occupation Of
Tripoli and Cyrenaica and the actual
declaration of war against Turkey
We're most methodical
These steps began of course when
Italy first decided that Tripoli and
Cyrenaica offered the best opportunity
for the satisfying of the three mo-
tives explained in the first of these
articles and which, from Italy's stand
point at least, made the acquisition of
an Italian colony imperative. Italy
of course saw the advantages that
would come from having this colony
so close to them. She also realized
that these two Turkish colonies con-
stituted the only remaining African
territory on the entire Mediterranean
sea that was not already under the
protection of some European power
She likewise realized that the moment
was ripe in European politics for her
to secure her share not only of Med
iterranean but African territory, if she
was even to secure It.
Undoubtedly Italy secured in ad-
vance, if not the permission, at least
the acquiescence of the European pow
ers to her occupation of Tripoli and
Cyrenaica. With this acquiescence Sc
cured she at once proceeded to mob
ilize the army, station her warships
so as to protect all Italian ports, and
prepare for blockading Turkey.
With all of these preparations com
pleted, Italy then sent a note to Tur-
key, and a copy to all of the powers,
in which she pointed out that for years
past the moral and material develop
ment of Tripoli and Cyrenaica under
Turkish rule had Jagged far beyond |
that of other countries, that Italy had |
sought repeatedly to develop the two |
territories but that the Turks had re-
Deatedly interefered, and that it there
fore had now become apparent that !
italy must assume a military protect
)rate over the country in order to in
sure it's future development. In con-
Guiding, Italy stated that any further
attempt on the part of Turkey to send
lrms, ammunition or troops into Trip

BORAH NOW CONFIDENT
OF POPULAR SENATE

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-Senato
Borah, manager on the part of thu
senate of the conference on the reso
luton providing for a constitutional
amendment for the popular election Of
senators, said today that he believed
the two houses would come to an
agreement, and the resolution be
adopted during this session
This resolution was passed by both
the senate and the house during the
extra session, and is in conference with
difference between the two houses
that is vital.
The house adopted the resolution
in form that gives the states COM
plete control of the elections at which
senators. are chosen.
The resolution was reported to the
senate from the judiciary committee
in the same form, but in the senate,
the Bristow amendment was added,
which gives congress the right to
amend the state regulation, whenever
it sees fit.
The question is to be taken up for
serious consideration following the
holidays.
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1911-12-27

Borah said this Afternoon that he be-
lieved a compromise would be reached
that would be satisfactory to botf
houses, and result in the adoption of
the resolution, and the submission OF
the proposed amendment to the var
ious states for ratification.
The democrats have refused to give
congress power to interfere. That
power now exists with regard to the
election of representatives Senator
Borah points out that congress has
never exercised it, since reconstruction
days. He does not think the fears of
the southern democrats are justified,
but his sincere desire for a popular
election amendment is such that he is
willing to yield to the house, if he can
persuade his fellow conferees to do
likewise.
This is a question that must be set
tied by the present congress, while
the resolution is in it's present legis-
Iative shape, and Borah will devote his
energies to bringing the conferees to-
gether. He is quite optimistic over
the probability of a successful out
come.

New Reserve Proposition for
the Bad Lands
HANNA WILL TAKE IT UP
CONGRESSMAN FROM FARGO is
IN FAVOR OF SUCH A PROPOSE.
TON AND HAS BEEN ASKED BY
CHIEF FORESTER TO TAKE 1T
UNDER CONSIDERATION.

Washington, June 12.-Following q
conference with Mr.. Greedy of Mis-
soula, Mont, district forester for east
ern Montana and western North Da-
kota, Chief Forester H. L. Graves has
written Representative Hanna request
ing him to discuss with Mr.. Greedy,
the proposition to create forest re-
serve in the Bad Lands of North Da-
kota.
The district forester is now in Wash
ington but will return home In a few
days, passing through Fargo, where
Mr.. Hanna will be at that time. Mr..
Greedy, it is understood, urged the
creation of this reserve in his talk with
the chief forester.
Mr.. Gravas said in his letter to Mr..
Hanna that .the bureau is without
FUNDS to undertake the planting OF
trees on any other areas than those
which have already been made forest
reserves and require forestation. He
said also, however, referring to the
Bad Lands Unquestionably the land
Is capable of producing trees and !
think that it would be a good thing for
North Dakota to have more land than
at present actually producing trees"
Mr.. Hanna has contended that the
reserve would forest itself from trees
that are now growing in the Bad
Lands, and that the reservation should
be made before settlers enter. The re-
serve sought would amount to Tic. 900
acres.
