Stables should be cleaned daily.
About one-half of the live weight Of
the hog is water.
Millet straw is not good feed for
COWS and horses.
Sheep respond to cheaper foods
quicker than any live stock we fatten-
You can make a pound Of pork on
half the feed that you can pound OF
beef.
Hogs maybe produced to run to an
age of 1s months and weigh 4SO to 500
pounds.
Good grass serves as a relish and
appetizer to hogs of all ages and con-
ditions.
Replace that old lot Of razor-back
hogs with boar and several sows of
pure breed.
Grass serves as a tonic for the brood
SOW, the boar and the fattening hog
as well as the growing pig.
1t should be clearly understood that
the principles of feeding apply alike
to horses. hogs and poultry.
Nearly all the care sheep need in
the winter is to keep them well fed
and keep of the rain and snow.
A variety of food isbetter for most
of the animals on the farm because it
stimulates appetite and aids digestion.
Cottonseed will furnish protein at
lower cost than oil meal and is better
adapted for use with snsilage than oil
meal.
1t has been demonstrated more than
once that 1t pays well to keep sheep
on the general farm. provided they are
kept well.
If oil cake is not too high. 1t will be
found a paying investment when two
or three ounces per sheep are fed to
the stock daily.
1t is folly to expect the calf to be
better than his sire any more than you
can expect stream to rise higher
than its source.
Forage crops enter largely into the
economical production of pork. and al
falfa alone has almost revolutionized
the business of hog raising.
A thrifty. growing hog that is not
very fat. will contain proportionally
more water than a hog that is very
fat or in prime condition for market

THAT HORSE MALADY.
Pathologist Makes His Report ts
County Commissioners.

To the County Commissioners OF
Prowers. Otero, Bent. Crowley and
Pueblo:
The following is brief report OF
my investigation work in my field
laboratory established at Holly by
the Colorado Experiment Station and
supported with funds by you:
Our records show that the disease
was brought into Prowers county by
immigrants from the infected district
of Kansas. That in one case the first
horse exposed came down in 9 days
and in the other center OF infection in
8 days after exposure. From this it
would appear that the period of in
cubation was from to 10 days.
Our statistics show about 1900
horses exposed to this disease, I57
contracted it, I26 died and 80 rccov
cred.
In all cases studied in the field and
autopsied after death or killed for
that purpose. "a Gram negative diplo-
streptococcus was always found in
the brain fluid. With pure culture OF
this germ 8 rabbits. guinea pigs, 3
horses and 3 dogs were inoculated.
All the horses, rabbits and guinea pigs
contracted tne ulscdsc dnu uiSu, anu
from their brain fluids the germ was
recovered One dog died of the dis
ease, one contracted it and recovered
and one resisted it.
The disease is apparently infectious
and is due to this germ which Johne
of Europe has called Diplococcus In
tracellularis Mcningitidis Equi Obi
p1o-two, coccus-a round body. intra-
cellularis within cells. meningitidis-
inflammation of the coverings of the
brain. equi-horse). In all the expert
mental animals dying of the disease
the typical post mortem findings were
present.
In one case out of two examined
the germ was found in the urine.
A vaccine has been prepared from
this germ and has been tried out on
these exposed horses (the horses
were left on same pasture. feed and
water). There has been only one ami
NAL attacked by the disease. after vac
cination and that was two days after
the first. The vaccinations were
made on horses on more than 20
ranches where thev were sick at that
time.
We have been preparing serum
horse to see if a potent serum or anti
toxin can be produced. We have
treated some sick horses with this
serum and believe that it has some
curative value. just how much re-
mains to be seen later.
My work will be continued in my
laboratory for some months yet as
the material collected while here must
all be thoroughly studied microscop-
ically. | am breaking up my field
laboratory at Holly and am leaving
whatever vaccinating need be done to
DIR. c. V. Williams The cost of
vaccinating to the owner will he light.

assisting me during the past three

HUDSON, Dec. 25.-One hundred ard twenty five miles from their home firesiales, the suffragette r;ny enroute from New York to Alban", carrying d message to Governor Sui2er, spent Christmas in this city.
 Professing to be far from homesick, the six SUI: viving members of the eX- petition observed the day in festivity at the same time losing no opportunity to advertise the cause of suffrage. Blistered feet did not prevent the wo- men from organizing a roller skatir 5 party a which General Rosalie Jones, standing on skates in the middle of the ring addressed more than 100 skaters.
 In the afternoon the army gathered at the invitation of Miss Jones in the parlor of their hotel and were sur prised to find Christmas tree aglow with candles and burdened with gifts appropriate to the occasion.
 Playing the role of Santa Claus, the fair General presented gifts to her troops, as rewards for bravery in the performance of duty"

Ready to Greet Him.

STAUNTON, Dec. 25.-With all the arrangements practically completed, the birthplace of Woodrow Wilson, en- Enthusiastically awaits the arrival of her distinguished son next Friday night, which will mark the beginning of a celebration in honor of his home com ing.
 The city is in gala attire for the cele- bration and no event of recent years has attracted more attention.
 Elaborate preparations have been made to extend the president elect a royal welcome. Probably the most spectacular feature of the celebration will be the heralding Of the distin- guished visitor by glare of bonfires. From the time the special train crosses the state line at Alexandria until he arrives at Staunton, Wilson's approach will be signalized by hundreds of bon fires.
 The celebration will bring to Staun- tor prominent members of the United States senate and house of represen- tatives state officials, including Gov ernor Mann and hosts of friends of the president elect. The climax of the en- tertainment will occur on Saturday when a parade, participated in by fed eral. state and other military organi- zations and civic bodies will be re- viewed by the president-elect
 Governor Wilson is scheduled to ar rive at Staunton at 7:50 o'clock on Friday evening. An appropriate wei come will be extended at the station after which he will be escorted to the house in which he was born, the Pres byterian manse, when his father was pastor of the local Presbyterian church There he will be received by Rev. A M Frazer, as the official representa- tive of the city and his host during his visit On Friday evening there vii be a torchlight procession and lOca street demonstration with addresses by prominent visitors to the city. 4 southern dinner will end the festivitie! on Saturday night.
