NEW MAMMOTH CAVE IN UTAH
Great Cavern Found Near Ogden by
Ranchman.

Ranchman.
A new Mammoth cave, which prom
ises to be interesting from a historical
as well as geological standpoint, has
been found in the mountains near Prom
ontory point, eighteen miles from Og-
den, Utah. 1t was discovered by Thom-
as Whitaker, ranchman, and his ac-
count of what he saw there created
so much interest that a party of pro-
fessors at the University of Utah i'm
mediately began making plans for an
exploration trip through the cave.
1t is believed that Whitaker is the
first white man who ever entered the
cave, as the surrounding country is so
barren that no one has lived there
within the memory Of civilized men.
The walls of the cave are covered
with what appear to be prehistoric
hieroglyphics, or picture writing. In
the district near the cave there is cur
rent an Indian legend to the effect that
a great battle was fought between two
tribes In that vicinity many years ago
and that the vanquished tribe perished
in an immense cave.
The front chamber of the series In
the cave is about 70 by $50 yards in
area, and its height is estimated at
forty-one feet. On the walls of the
chamber are crudely drawn pictures Of
Indians.

provocation causes congestion and a
disturbance of circulation at the base

4 Up to the present, owing to this
cause being overlooked, all medical
treatment, even the cutting Of the
perves, has failed.

New light on the comparatively mill.

His statements justify the United

II doubt" says this authority.
whether our airships will ever be so
unfortunate as to have to measure
their strength with that of the French
air craft. In very few years all army
aeroplanes must be armored. Even
now, unarmored, they are practically
safe when over 5000 feet away, and at
1,500 feet altitude they are safe when
their vital parts are armored.
"The theory that balloon can be re,
peatedly hit without being seriously
damaged is upset by the discovery of
an infantry explosive bullet which sets
the hydrogen gas in a balloon afire by
contact, thus destroying any balloon
the bullet hits. Owing to the precision
of automatic sighting rapid fire guns,
which leave smoke marked track,
failure to hit a target in the air is
practically eliminated except at very
great heights; hence it follows that
balloons should not show themselves
above an enemy's troops"

HOW TO PREVENT oAT SMUT
Grain Should Be Treated With For.
'naiin Solution in Morning and
Drilled In Same Day.

To prevent oat smut, the grain
should be treated with formalin II
takes about one ounce OF formalin for
every five bushels of grain to be treat
ed
Clean q space on the barn floor and
thoroughly sprinkle II with the for
main solution before spreading the
seed grain. The oats should be run
through the tanning mill twice to re-
move all light grain. as only heavy
clean seed should be sown. Spread
down the seed grain, then sprinkle the
grain with the formalin solution made
AS follows: Formalin, one ounce; wa
ter, two and one-half gallons; mix
thoroughly. The solution can be APP
piled with a fine rose watering pot;
shovel the grain over so that every
seed is coated with the solution. When
all the grain is coataed, shovel the
grain into round pile and cover with
sacks for not more than two or three
hours, then spread out, and as soon
as the oats will not stick together It
is at to SOW or drill. The grain should
be treated in the morning and drilled
in the same. day. The drill should be
set to drill two and one-fourth to two
and one-half bushels to the acre, as
the oats, having absorbed considerable
water are larger than dry oats. Have
the ground thoroughly mellowed;
drill the oats in with $50 pounds to
the acre OF some good bone fertilizer.
Even IL the ground is in good order, 1t
will pay to use the fertilizer The fer
tilizer will ripen the grain early, the
straw will stand up stiff and cannot be
blown down by summer storms and
the yield will be increased fully 10 to
IL bushels per acre

Most Serious Problem.

Infectious abortion among Cattle
has become one of the most serious
problems for cattle owners so far as
infectious diseases are concerned.
1t is well entitled to rank in import,
ance with tuberculosis, hog cholera,
and Texas fever. Two new medical
treatments have recently appeared.
either one of which may possibly
prove TO be of very great importance.
One, abortin, is used like tuberculin,
as a diagnostic; and the othe- is a
vaccine, which it is hoped will inn
miInize heifers against the infection.
There is not sufficient reliable infor-
nation available as yet, upon which
to justify any definite statement.
Breeders should keep these things In
mind and watch for future develop
ments.

ARRANGE BEDDING Fer HORSE
7aIed Shavinss and Sawdust Are Best,
Everything Considered-Straw is
Too VaIuable4

Always place bedding toward the
side and rear of the stall, as horse
lies well backward and on it's side.
Should the horse kick and scratch
the straw too far back, place a coarse
cocoanut-i1ber mat under the straw
about where the hooks of the horse
lie and there will be no further trou-
Bile. Otherwise, the hooks may be
capped and injured.
Wheat straw is good for bedding,
rye next and barley is tabooed, while
oats is too soft. Besides, horse likes
oat straw and may be tempted to eat
unsanitary bedding. the salty taste of
ammonia proving agreeable to a de-
PRAYED appetite.
Baled shavings and sawdust are
best. everything considered; their use
stopping indigestion caused by eating
bedding. Straw, baled hay, old swalo
snd such matter rolls up too much,
which fact together with the steadily
increasing value of straw, makes it
almost too. valuable for bedding in the
horse barns.

STAPLE FOOD FOR CHICKENS
Fed Grain AIone-Fowis De-
nand Variety Of Feed.

Grain is the staple food for poultry
and will be used for that purpose as
long as fowls are kept on farms, but
hens cannot give good results on grain
alone. 1t Is beneficial to them and will
be at all times relished, but the de-
mands of the hens are such as to call
for a variety. In the shells of eggs
as well as their composition are sew
eral forms Of mineral matter and nitro
gen, which can only be partially OBJ
tanned from grain.
Even grains vary in composition,
and when fowls are fed on one kind
for a long time they will begin to re.
fuse it, as they may be oversupplied
with the elements of the food partaken
and lack the elements that are best
supplied from some other source For
this reason they will accept change
of food, which is of itself an evidence
that the best results from hens can
only be obtained by a variety of food.
Corn and wheat may be used as food
with advantage, but must be given as
a portion of the ration and not made
exclusive articles of diet.
