What Gives Horse "Blind Stageers."
In Farm and Fireside corn growers
are warned that they are now threat
ened with a danger which heretofore
has not been considered. 1nforma-
ton coming from widely separated
places shows that the corn ear-worm
is causing injury and death to farm
animals by injecting them and giving
them blind staggers.
Following is AN extract from the
article:
For five or six years occasional out
breaks Of Elind staggers in horses have
attracted attention. During this time
the Kansas Experiment station has
been making an experimental study of
this disease and it's origin. Its exact
cause is still only partially under
stood, but enough has been learned to
place the blame safely on poison in the
mold and filth on ears damaged by the
corn ear-worm.
The eggs Of the adult insect eaus-
ing this trouble are laid in the husks
of the young ear. After Matching, the
earworm burrows through the soft
Young kernels, leaving it's filth. which,
with the escaping juices of the corn,
furnishes the best possible medium for
the development of the mold and pu-
trid decay. Sufficient Of this poison
Gus material remains in the eorn-eobs
and corn to cause a gradual poisoning
of tile horses consuming any consid-
cradle quantity of the damaged corn.
THE loss of horses in Kansas and
a number of other states from blind
staggers is now considerably greater
than formerly.
'Only small proportion of the
cases of blind staggers have been found
to- be durable, even by skilled vet
eIinarian, unless the treatment is be-
gun early"

integrity as a Source of Income

In Farm and Fireside II. c. Taylor
writes ON integrity as a source of in
come with particular reference to the
young farmer He says in part:
There are four important sources
of income; labor, managerial activity,
integrity and capital The man who
depends upon labor alone will have. as
a rule, but small income. 1t is when
ability as manager and integrity as
a man begin to yield their income that
the young man gets. ahead rapidly.
1t has often been said the first
thousand dollars is the hardest To ae-
emulate. This is true. because it
must be saved almost wholly from the
one source of income, labor. From the
one source of income must be provid-
ed food, clothing and shelter for the
worker, before anything can be put
aside as savings. Add another impor
tant source of income. and accumuia-
ton by saving becomes easy.
The Importance of integrity as
source of income can not easily be
oVerestimated. There are two ways
of realizing upon your integrity. Most
men are willing to assume Il certain
amount of integrity on the part of the
young men. The young man can
sometimes take advantage of this fact
and. by dishonest actions, realize
small return once for all. 1t is not this
method of realizing upon ones stock
of integrity that is to be dwelt upon
here. The way to realize an important
financial return for ones reputation
for integrity is not to sell out, but to
continually acquire more stock.
Reputation for integrity gives the
opportunity for the young man with
little capital to realize upon his man
agerial activity. There are many
owners of farms who. having grown
old AT farming, are willing to turn
their entire capital over to the man.
agement of a trustworthy young man.
BY working as a hired laborer on a
farm, a young man may establish
reputation for integrity such that the
owner of the farm will turn over the
entire management of the farm and
to him as a tenant instead
of directed hireling. | know cases
where this has resulted in an increase
in the income of the young man from
thirty dollars a month and board To a
thousand dollars year. Integrity
gives opportunity to realize upon ones
ability by operating the
capital which belongs to others

Says the y. Y. Sun: Maine is dis
tinctly a Fishing country" There's a
reason. It's lakes and streams, nat
urally prolific. are kept so well stocked
by the fish and game authorities that
they are practically inexhaustible, al
though thousands of trout togue, bass
and ether game fish are taken from
her waters every year; they are re-
stocked with hundreds of thousands of
fry and "fngerings" by the fish
commissions both of State and nation.
These are largely bred in the waters of
the lake where their parents We're born.
No wonder the fishing is good in the
Pine Tree State. The Maine guide does
not maliciously exaggerate, and though
his yarns are naive, what he tells you
about the natural resources and the
supply of fish and game you may de-
pend upon. On general principles the
planning and management of camp
ing trip should be left TO his superior
Judgment. He knows where the best
fishing and hunting are. Many ofthese
guides have leased some Of the best
fishing and hunting grounds, where
they have built permanent camps.
These camps have proved so attractive
that they are established all over
Maine.

old neglected orchard might be put into
shape to bring the owners the most out
OF their investment. The fact was brought
out that the orchards Of Nemaha county
when properly cared for will produce APP
piles that will sell on any market for as
good prices as any western apples. What
the grower must do is TO first grow that
kind Of fruit then learn to put Il up in
the most attractive manner. then show the
consumer that no other apples compare
with Nebraska apples for quality. fact
no one can dispute.
There were also some good talks on
different phases of small fruit culture. A
large attendance and much enthusiasm
showed that the growers are alive to their
opportunities and will put into practice
the truths learned at this meeting and
Nemaha county will take her place in
