Mayor Woodward created stir in

that the Martha home be installed in

Mayor Woodward led a fight against
Chief Beavers for the reinstatement Of
Bicycle Policeman Mack Folds, who
is under Indictment for murder charged
with killing a negro whom he was try

the chief when the indictment was re-
turned by the grand jury, just as was
the case when Policeman Parham was
indicted for murder.
The chief said he believed officer
Folds act was justifiable, but that ne
seriously doubted the wisdom Of rein

the murder charge.

Eager for Service

The Seventeenth infantry is ready to

Fort Mcpherson in two hours, in case
it should be called to Mexico, according
to a declaration this morning by Colo

the regiment. The Seventeenth was
the first regiment to reach the Mexican
border when troops were sent in the
disturbance of 1911, and the soldier boys
at the fort declare they could duplicate
the feat. The only thing in the way
would be lack of transportation.
An army official pointed out this de-
feet this morning: while the troops
could be ready for leaving in two hours
time" he asserted, there is not a rail-
road that could handle the regiment
on such short notice, nor could the
schedules be arranged so as to make
such a quick start. The roads have
use for all their coaches just now and
would have to look about for the proper
facilities"

Large seeds like peaches and plums

FEEDING SHEEP
DURING WINTER
Value of Regularity in Care OF
Animals Demonstrated by
Experiments.

Sheep should be FED regularly in
the winter In fact, as much depends
on the regularity of feeding as on the
feeding itself Those who are famll-
lar with the characteristics of sheep
know that they always become rest
less about feeding time
The value of regular feeding has
been demonstrated by experiments
with two flocks, at certain western
agricultural experiment station. One
was fed daily at six o'clock in the
morning and again in the evening,
while the other was fed at different
times during the day. The result was
that the flock fed regularly turned
out in a thrifty condition in the fol
lowing spring, while the others were
thin and sickly.
Many of the latter flock had died
during the winter, fully eight per cent.
of the lambs had either died at birth
or made only stunned growth. BY
feeding at a set time every morning
and evening better results will be at
tanned. The essentials in the winter
care of sheep are regular feeding,
plenty of water and salt and rough.

AVERAGE QUALITY ~ I
OF OUR HORSES
Mare Owners Should Appreciate
Value of Pure-Bred Stall
lions in Breeding.

(By C. w. M'CAMPBEI.L, Kansas.)
Improvement in the average quality
of our horses rests with the mare own
ers and the sooner they come to real
ize and appreciate the value of. and to
demand the services of, good, sound,
pure-bred stations, the more certainly
and rapidly will the general average
of our horses be improved. It is the
intensified inheritance resulting from
many generations of breeding the best
to the best, using no outcrosses, and
always with the same ideal and pur-
pose in mind, that enable the pure
bred" to stamp his characters upon
his off-springs. The grade" with TWO,
three or four topcrosses lacks this in
tensified inheritance of characters and
his diversified inheritance precludes
his use as sire. These are facts, not
theories. Practical illustrations MAJ
be seen on every hand if we will sim
ply allow ourselves to see them. AS
an illustration, at a recent farm sale,
colts rising tree, uniform in quality,
ready to do considerable work the
coming season, sold at an average OF
SIC head. Colts rising two. averaged
SAG. The sires of these colts were or
binary grade stations whose service
fees ranged from Sc to So. Weanlings
from the same mares but from very
excellent pure-bred stallion standing
for SIS, sold for SOL, this being $25
per head more than rising three-year-
oIds brought, due entirely to the in
fiuence of a good sound, pure-bred
sire. The service of a grade or scrub
stallion is expensive even if given free
of charge. On the other hand. do not
breed to a stallion simply because he
happens to be registered.
Beware of stations that are heredi-
tarily unsound, for it is just as un-
profitable to raise. unsound horses as
it is to raise scrub horses. You may
ask what is meant when certain I'M
soundnesses are designated as hered1-
tary. It means that such unsound-
nesses are due primarily to a weak
ness of the part involved and that this
weakness may be in the form OF one
or all of the following conditions:
poor conformation, poor quality OF
tissue, or an Indifferent quality OF
tissue.

Careful consideration must be exer-
cfsed when selecting boar for herd
of sows. The future usefulness and
development of his offspring requires
thought and good Judgment at the
mating period, says r. II. Stone in
National Stockman. We cannot al
ford to use a scrub or pedlgreed
runt under any consideration Re-
member there are about 1000 pigs in
the first ten generations, and it is
essential TO develop them along pro-
f1table lines. One day spent at mat
Ing period, regardless Of distances, to
find a good pure-bred boar will OBJ
viate year of disappointment.
A litter of eight good pigs from
purebred boar mated with a choice
SOW will require less feed, and when
grown will produce 80 pounds of
meat per pig more than scrubby ones,
thus making 400 pounds of additional
meat without additional expense. Our
experience shows that a SOW that
grows eight pigs to maturity twice
year is more profitable SOW than
one that produces more pigs and fails
TO develop them.
Usually the SOW has sufficient milk
for eight, and when they are allowed
to suckle six to eight weeks the pigs
are in prime condition to wean with
out having any setback. The SOW can
generally be bred successfully on the
third day after weaving, and it is no
trouble to have her produce two lit
tiers per year if you give her the
proper attention. Watch her on the
