THAT RESULT.

Special to The Herald.
NASHVILLE. Tenn, Nov. 20.--Al-
though 1t has been just two weeks
since the election the Official returns
from ninety.three of the ninety-six
counties Of the state have been re-
ceived by the secretary of state. But
for the theft of the returns in Madi-
sen that county would have reported.
The other delinquents are Giles and
Knox. 1t is difficult to understand
the delay in sending in the reports
from these counties. There was a
time when month or more would
pass before official returns were re-
ceived from all the counties, but now
a large majority reported the first
week following the election.
With Giles, Madison and Knox not
reported the vote for governor
stands: Hooper, 114,314; McMjllin,
1OS.O6s Hooper's majority s,245.
Giles gave Hooper about 300 majority
and Knox about 1000 and Madison
went for McMillin by about 200, 30
that Hooper's total majority In the
state will be approximately 5000.

Black leg is an acute infectious dis
ease caused by specific germ. The
disease does not spread from animal
to animal by simple contact, but the
infection takes place from common
cause or source and this common
source Is the black leg infected soil.
Like Tetanus and many other diseas-
es. black leg follows wound infection.
This means that before black leg
germs can enter the animals body
that the skin must first be abraded
or broken by wound. The germs
cannot penetrate the healthy normal
skin. Black leg attacks sheep and
goats as well as cattle. 1t Is dis
ease of young cattle, rarely attacks
cattle over two and half years old.
Thin skin breeds are more suscepti-
BILE than those endowed with thick
skin. Black leg has been reported
from about forty-fve counties in Ten.
nessee during the past year. The
money loss from black leg during the
past year has been considerably less
than that of former years. This Is
accounted for in part, by our moe In

tecting their herds by promptly us

A PENALTY OF AGE

The tendency of advancing years to
restrict activity and exercise is re-
spCnsible for the constipated condition
of most elderly people. The wear Of
years impairs the action of the bow
els and the digestive organs are more
sensitive to the demands upon them
and rebel more quickly. Cathartics
and purgatives are violent and dras-
tic in their action and should not be
used to correct constipation. A mild,
yet positively effective remedy, and
one that is recommended by physi-
clans as we'll as by thousands who
have used it, is the compound of SIM
pie laxative herbs with pepsin pre-
scribed by DR.. w. B. Caldwell over
thirty years ago and now sold by drug
gists everywhere under the name of
Dr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin. DR..
Caldwell wants everyone troubled with
constipation to try Syrup Pepsin and
will send trial bottle, free of charge,
to all who write for it. Address DR..

HOW TO MAKE A CHEAP WELL
Wall Can Be Laid Five or Six Feet
High, Archng 1t at Top With
Large Stone for Covering.

1t is impossible to drive a pipe for
a well in some localities, and stones
are scarce to lay wall in dug we'll,
writes J. H. Andre of Wisconsin in
the Farm and Home. In such cases
the wall can be laid 5 or feet high
arching it at the top with large stones
to Is or IS inches in diameter, and
cover it with a large fiat stone, a,
with a hole in the center to admit
e-inch pipe. Place a stone, b, in the
bottom Of the we'll 10 inches in diam
eter and inches thick. Concrete is
best. Make a concrete cone, C, 3 feet
long, Is inches in diameter, at the
bottom, 3 inches thick and of size
to fit the bell end of an 8-inch sewer
pipe at the top. The large end of the
cone will need openings in the side to
allow the water to enter freely when
pumping. Place the large end Of the
cone on the stone.
The first length, d, o. sewer pipe
can be inches. When the pipe, e,
reaches above where the we'll is
stoned it can be reduced to 6 inches a
few lengths and then f to inches.

CAUTIONS FOR CEMENT USERS
Among Other Thines Do Not Allow
Material to Freeze Before 1t Is
Properly Hardened.

Never expose freshly made concrete
to the hot summer sun. Avoid too
rapid drying out, says the American
Cultivator.
Do not allow it to freeze before it is
properly hardened.
Do not use soft sand stone or brick
except for filler in large work, and
even then with discretion.
Do not apply fresh cement to old
and hardened surfaces without first
thoroughly soaking with water and
hacking a rough surface on it. Cleanse
thoroughly and then apply very thin.
neat cement wash.
Do not attempt to retemper and use
concrete that has stood too long in
the mixing board and attained it's set.
Use a uniform Portland cement and
give attention to uniform methods of
working and the results will be uni
form.
Use a finely ground cement. The
finer the cement the greater covering
properties it possesses and the more
sand it can carry. An excess of &C.
ment is unnecessary, as a thin, even
coating is all that is required.
Be sure to mix thoroughly. Many
faulty jobs are due to poor mixing.
Do not be afraid of OVERRIDING it, as
longer mixing permits of using less
cement.

CAREFUL DRIVER OF HORSES
Some Men Can Get More Out of AMI
mails In One Round With Plow
Than Another VIII In Two.

How many acres Of tillable farm
land will one horse work? This, of
course, depends on the kind OF farm
ing done, on the kind Of machinery
used and on the efficiency of the man
who works the horses. It would not
be difficult to find 100 acres of till
able land worked in one case with
two good horses and from this on
up to six work horses Probably more
depends on the ability of the driver
to handle his horses than any other
one thing Some drivers will take
more out of their horses at one
round with the pillow than another will
in two rounds In one case the plow-
ing is done in haphazard sort OF
way, the horses are tangled at the
ends, are backed and turned I'M
necessarily, are jerked yiciously when
out Of line, and possibly the harnesses
do not fit properly. In the other
case the horses are given a steady,
true gait which is kept up, the turns
Jerking and the driver watches the
working of his plow and fit of his
harnesses all day long. No team
should be worked over an hour at
hard pulling before the harnesses are
looked over to see that all parts set
properly. To some this carefulness
comes naturally; to others it never
will come. Efficiency in the driver
means efficiency in the team, and it
is a pleasure to see horses worked
well

News Notes of Wisconsin.

Madison.-State Forester E. M
Griffith will propose to the next leg
islature that the state forest reserve
be used for the employment and
treatment of convalescent cOnsump-
tives and run down city folks. .
There are nearly 1900 lakes within

done in cultivating the forests. His
plan has been endorsed by the Wis
consin Anti-Tuberculosis association.
Portage.-The Delton plan of
