TIGHT SHOE COSTS
GIRL HER RIGHT LEG
First Irritation. Then liberation, Next
DilatiOn and Last of All Ampu-
tafiOn

Baltimore Miss Josephine Patten
about month ago bought pair of
shoes which she wore for several
days. Tishtness caused a slight irri-
tation on the sifttle toe of the right
foot. Miss Patten thought 1t would
wear off in a few days, but it de-
veloped in several days in an ulcer
alton. Next the foot began to swell
and then the leg.
Thoroughly alarmed Miss Patten
applied for treatment at the Mercy
hospital, where the case was dia-
gnosed as gangrenous affection. The
foot was opened and the wound ster-
ilized, but 1t became more virulent,
and the physicians decided that inn
mediate amputation was imperative
The leg was taken off just below
the hip. care being taken to cut away
all the infected parts to prevent the
disease from spreading.

SHEEP REQUIRE WARM FOLD
With Proper Methods OF Feeding and
Care Animals Will Emerge from
Winter in Good Condition.

Sheep, as general. rule, emerge
from the winter in poorer condition
than they enter it. If proper methods
Of feeding and care are used the re-
verse OF this should be the case.
Sheep will thrive much better on
forage crops than on dry feed; hence
the advisability of sowing some forage
crop which will grow late in the fall.
Several crops have proved very salts
factory, but none probably more so
than cowpeas. This plant grows lux
ur1antly and has large percentage
Of protein. Being legume, it also
enriches the soil by the addition of
nitrogen. one of the main elements of
plant food. Cowpeas should be plant
ed in May, June, and the earlier part
Of July. The amount Of seed to plant
to the acre is from 20 to 40 pounds.
The change from green food to dry
food should be made gradually. Straw,
fodder, silage and alfalfa are some
Of the dry feeds which may be used.
Cleanliness in both watering and feed.
ing troughs is essential. A good way
to keep the troughs clean is to turn
them over after the sheep have eaten
grain.
Sheep need warm fold. Don't for
get that. The fold should be made of
tight board fencing which breaks the
wind and also makes the sheep more
secure from dogs and wolves. 1t
should be large enough to provide
room for all. There should be no cold
drafts through sleeps quarters.

fui not to remove any of the soil from
around the roots of the plants.
After they are all started growing
thin them out until there are five
plants in hill.
Besides producing an early crop and
securing high price for the product
this method is especially commend
able on account of avoiding the dan
ger Of late frost and destruction by
bugs and worms, which last-named is
common occurrence at an early
stage where the plants are prepagated
In the open field.
Also the plants will have secured q
growth of several inches before they
are placed in the ground and the soil
being free from weed-pests, less labor
will be required to keep the plants
thrifty and unobstructed in their de-
velopment.
