Corn fodder Is hardly as good for

Young pigs are peculiarly subject to
various kinds of intestinal worms.
Colts and calves often develop small
warts in large numbers about the
face.
Sore mouth will sometimes attack
sheep in pens and run through the en-
tire flock.
There is possibility of underfeed-
ing an animal as well as overlooking
for best results.
If your heart is in the right place
you will see that your animals are
made comfortable for the winter.
Horses cannot now be grown as
cheap as they were when land was

A bloclSish-built mare with large
barrel on short legs is likely to pro-
duce q better foal than the tall, leggy
kind.
Lambs that are four weeks old may
be pushed rapidly for market by feed
ing oats and bran with some ground
corn.
The best ration for the steers de-
ponds largely on the weight OF the
steers, the feeds available and the
prices of the same.
Pure-bred cattle or other live stock
are what they are largely because Of
the feed and care they and their an
cestors have received.
DO not deprive your steers OF exer-

vigor are promoted where animals are
allowed to move about
The old notion that cheap corn and
swine disease are intimately connect

WOMEN WAKE UP LOUISVILLE
Were First to Realize That City Was
Capable of Being Made
Beautiful.

1t was the women who woke up
Louisville They first realized, says a
writer in the Worlds Work, that the
city was capable of being made a
beautiful one and they set to work
to bring this about by opening a cam
paign through newspapers, personal
letters and personal solicitation
The first object of their attack was
the factory situation. The factories
for the most part dumped their rub
bish anywhere that happened to be
convenient and made no attempt to
keep their premises in order The
womens movement soon brought a
change.
Manufacturers quickly responded to
their appeal. Rubbish was no longer
dumped carelessly. Grass seed was
tory windows were adorned with pots
of growing plants and many owners
were induced to apply a coat of well
nigh forgotten paint,
Owners of tenement houses were
appealed to, and they recognized the
commercial advantage of beautifying

was inaugurated against awning poles

In the wake of the civic renaissance
public attention was attracted to the
river front. The subject of waterfront
parks was preached, and though that
dream has not yet been fully realized
the river front is being constantly
improved. The burden of these i'm.

Birds are so constituted by nature
that they require an abundance OF
fresh air for health and yigor. They
never do well with a limited supply
of air. For this reason all coops and
boxes In which poultry of any kind
is kept in the summer should be as
open as possible.
Let the roof be tight to protect
from rain, but at least one side
be open for the admission Of fresh afr
at all times. The open side may be
protected by wire cloth or other ma
terial that will let in air, but keep
