horns and clip the hair from the spots
about one inch in diameter. Then
take piece of caustic, wrapped with
paper at one end to prevent burning
the fingers, and moisten the other end
slightly and rub on the coming horn.
Be careful to get none on the skin of
the animal except over the budding
horn.
The ease with which. this can be
done, its rapidity in healing, and the
minimum amount of pain it causes the
animal, make it one of the most hui
name and modern methods of prevent
ing horns. Do not use this method
while the flies are active unless you
can protect the animal.

DEHoRN THE CALVES EARLY.

DEHOhN lHE VALVES EARLY.
The best way to dehorn calf is to
prevent the growth Of horns, before
they get start, by the use of little
caustic potash. The operation should
be performed when the calf is from
one to three weeks old, or as soon as
the button OF the horn can be distinct
ly felt when rubbing the hand over
the poll.
The. only articles necessary are a
sharp pair of shears or clippers and
a few sticks of caustic potash and a
little water. Back the calf into cor

put its head between your legs, hold
ing it firmly. Find the outgrowing

BARNES WILD ANIMAL
CIRCUS is COMING

Tucked away somewhere deeply in
the innermost consciousness of every
human being is the remembrance of
the first circus ever attended. In the
onward progress the Al. G. Barnes
Big Three Ring Wild Animal Circus
has forged to the front until now it
is the largest exhibition of its kind
In the world. This big show will give
two full and complete performances
on Thursday October 9th in Payette.
The AL. G. Barnes Circus is the one

them are thirty African forest bred

of camels, leopards, tigers, pums,
bears, jaguars, hyenas, zebras, mon

and ponies. Every animal CARED

tons, under the supervision of a corps
of the worlds greatest and most cell
ebrated trainers. Altogether there
are more than half hundred heart
shilling acts, each of which has new
er yet been duplicated with any ami
NAL exhibition in the entire word.
Some idea of the magnitude CT the
show may be obtained when one takes
into consideration that it requires
twenty-five specially constructed rail-
read cars to transport this geological
paradise. Three hundred employees
are required to operate it.
AL. G. Barnes personally supsrvis-
es and directs each and every per-
formance. He prides himself with
the clean and high tone standard he
has always held for the show No

raise to meet new and unusual ex-
penses, it will be seen that the board
of equalization was forced to provide
in 1913 for the payment of $2SS, 524.1O
more than was required In 1912.
when it is remembered that in
order to pay s2S ,524.1O additional, an
increase of only $24,23S.73 is asked
for in direct taxes, the difference be-
ing saved elsewhere or met from
the increased revenues and by the

that the administration which has
brought such result about is fairly
entitled to the credit of having been
both economical and businesslike.
