NASAL DISCHARGE OF HORSES
Trouble May BE Due 70 Chambers o.
Other Causes, 49,


Other Causes.
Nasal discharge of horses may be
due to catarrhal trouble of the nose,
including certain sinuses or cavities
in the bones Of the head, which COM
municate with the nose. It may be
due to tumors or growths of various
kinds which occur in the nose. It may
be due to glanders or to bad teeth.
II the discharge is due to catarrhal
troubles in case Of sinuses there is
likely to be q little bullying of the
face bones over the upper part of the
nose quite commonly on one side.> II
the trouble is due to diseased teeth
there is q strong characteristic odor
easily recognized as the odor Of de.
cayed teeth. This Is noticeable in the
breath and especially in the saliva.
Since there is always possibility
that the trouble may be due to CLAN.
ders those who handle such horses
should be on their guard. A person
may easily take CHAMBERS by inoccu-
lation. There is always danger Of In.
lection from a glandered horse when
q horse sneezes or blows the nose in
such way as to spray fine particles
into the eye, nose or mouth of per.
son, or when such discharge comes In
contact with an abraded skin. A tiny
scratch or. even q hang nail may give
an. abundant opportunity for fatal in.
occulation. Human glanders is usual.

Minute Parasite Very Troublesome
to Fowls.
One Of the parasites that troubles
fowls is the scaly-leg mite It -is so
small that you cannot see it with the
naked eye, but it crawls under the
scales of the legs and toes and by
biting raises a small blister which
dries and forms q crust. Many of
these blisters run together and the
crusts form one large scab, which is
both unsightly and uncomfortable.
!. It Is very easy to get rid of this
mite. Wash the leg with soap and
warm water, and after it dries, apply
Kerosene, then day or two later ap-
ply cottonseed oil, lard or vaseline.

CITY planning is just now receiving a
very belated recognition in the United
States. The new spirit, observes the
Kansas City Star, is slowly working its
WY into the new civic life. It is sig
naacant to note that the movement for
cities constructed on scientific lines
closely parallel the nation wide de-
mand for scientific municipal govern
ment.
The problem of making over the cit.

life has dumped haphazardly in the
last century is being attacked by diff
ferent method almost In every CITY,
The movement Is still too young for it
to have evolved any set and definite d.
trect1ons. Then the individuality of
each city demands some different treat

In cities where commission govern
ment has been adopted the city officials
frequently are heading the movement.
Civic bodies have taken the lead in
others. Too often it has been left for
women through their organizations to
DO the whole initial work. In other
cases the ''city beautiful" campaign
has rested entirely on one mans ef-
forts.

Fire Blight Of Apple
Trees.

: Trees. :
! BY e. c. sTAkMAN, Assistant
Plant Pathologist; university
!. Farm, st. Paul. =
+++++++++++++++++
There is great deal Of twig and
branch blight OF apple trees this
year. The most striking character
istios are the browning Of leaves and
blackening Of twigs. The dead leaves
do not fall, but remain on the tree,
thus showing very clearly the posi-
ton Of diseased branches. Upon close
examination the blighted twigs or
branches are seen to be very distinct
>ly blackened. Not only the sfaller
branches may be affected, but also
large limbs and. in some cases, even
the trunks. ;,..3.s
Trees showing such symptoms 40
those described are usually affected
with fire blight, 80 called because in
severe cases whole trees may appear
to have been scorched. The disease IL
caused by bacterium and ID very,
contagious. Usually the microbe il
carried to the tree by insects which.
visit the flowers. When 1t is depos'
tied on 4 flower it multiplies very
rapidly and the blossom is blackened
and killed, this phase OF the disease
being known as blossom blight.
The infection may extend along under
the bark, killing and blackenlng the
twig, and often progressing into the
branches. 1t may also get into the
trunk. either through pruning wounds
or through SHOOTS growing out from
the trunk. 1t may then cause the so
called body blight.
Infection takes place not only
through the flowers, but also through
tender shoots, water sprouts, suckers,
or spurs. For this reason, in: orchards
where the blight has gained a foot
hold, nothing should be done which
would encourage rapid growth. I'm
fortunately the same conditions which
are conducive to q vigorous growth
Of the tree are also conducive to the
rapid spread of the blight. -.
The. germs are killed in many OF
the branches during the winter, but
in some they remain alive and be-
come active again in the spring.
These so called holdover cankers are
the source of new infection. Often on
such cankers drops of milky liquid
are exuded and sometimes there is so
much exudate that it runs down the
trunk. The liquid contains countless
numbers of the bacteria, insects are
attracted to it and thus carry it to
other trees. ,4.'-
. The. only practicable method of
eradicating the blight from an or
chard is by cutting away all blight
ed wood. .
This is most conveniently done in
late summer or fall after the sea-
sons growth is over. At this time the
blighted portions are quite easily de-
tected. Every bit of blighted wood
should be cut out, even If 1t neces-
states the sacrifice of the whole tree
The branches should always be taken
of some distance back from the
clearly diseased parts in order to in.
sure cutting out all the infected wood.
In the spring the orchard should be
carefully examined and any limbs
which may have been missed in the

Montana Sheep
Go To Sheldon

Sheldon, N. D., Aug. 23.-Sixteen
carloads of Montana sheep are to be
shipped to Sheldon where they will be
turned loose in the stubble fields and
allowed to fatten before they are ship
ped to the St. Paul market for sale.
T. ]. McCully and C. J. Shaw are
farmers interested in the deal and they
expect to net themselves tidy little
profit by the time the sheep are sold.
The two men left this morning for
several large sheep ranches in Mon
tana to make the prospective purchase
and it is expected that about 1900
head will be bought.
A large amount of rain this summer
has made a heavy growth of green
foliage at the bottom of the stubble
and makes excellent feed for the sheep.
Professional sheep herders and dogs
will be brought along with the sheep
for herding.

Sheldon, N. D., Aug. 23.-Robert
Gray tells an interesting little chick
en- story that has happened out at his
farm. He says that a prairie chicken
about two-thirds grown has taken up
his home with the other tame chickens
about the place and is not a particle
afraid, eating right along with the 9th
ers. He cannot account how it hap
pened there, but thinks when real
small it got absorbed from the rest of
the covey and made its way to the
fam buildings. It does not show any
inclination to go away and Bob says
there is one chicken that will be safe
from the sportsmen's gun. ...

PLANS FOR northern PACIFIC
DEPOT Definitely DECIDED UPON
Work Upon the Handsome New Structure will
Commence As Soon As Crews of Men Can
BeBrouQht nere-- Be Credit to City.

After months of waiting, much spec
ulation and wondering as to what the
railroad would do, the plans for the
new depot of the Northern Pacific
railroad at Valley City have finally
been completed, and work on the
structure will begin as soon as an
adequate crew of men can be brought
here from other points in the state.
The general outline of the depot has
already been described in the Times
Record, but since recent visit of
Northern Pacific officials to Valley
City there have been a number of al
terations and additions to the plans
through the suggestion of Walter
Gushing, secretary of the board of
railroad commissioners, and former
resident of Valley City.
While Mr.. Gushing was here recent
ly with the chief CONSTITUTIONAL engi-
neer of the road, he suggested that
new depot here would be of compar-
atively little value If nothing were

ers and gardens raised under the d.
rection of the city government. A
curving driveway will be built, with
an entrance from the north On the
west, south and east will be paved
walks, which will extend over the
present location of the northermost
tracks, to the main line tracks.
The depot will be lighted by a Sc.
ries of clusters on all four sides, and
from the plans as they now stand,
will be one of the handomest struct-
-ure in the state.
The Northern Pacific has for sever.
al weeks been planning to make an
early start at the work, but the short.
age of labor, and the large amount of
construction work has made it impos.
sible to begin. 1t is expected that
they will appear at any day now.

HERO ADDED
TO LIST OF DEAD
WIRELESS OPERATORS

Seattle, Wash, Aug. 22.-Anothel
hero story in the annals of wireless
telegraphy was told here early today
when forty surviving members of the
Steamship State of California arrived
here on the steamer Jefferson.
Donald C. Perkins Of Oakland, CAL,
who went as chief wireless operator on
the State of California in hope of en-.
countering adventure, was on duty and
asleep when the steamer struck an
uncharted reef in Gambler bay, Alas
ka last Sunday morning. Awakened
by the shock, he rushed to the wireless
room and ordered Walter Chamberlain,
the operator on duty, to seek safety.
Then be sat down at the key, but be-
fore he could send his first call for
help falling mast went through the
wireless house and crushed Perkins
to death at his post.
OF the three life boats launched,
the survivors said, one was useless,
having been smashed by falling wreck
age, and one was carried down by the
suction Of the boat.

Last night two fellows were taken
by the officers, while in the act of
taking MELONS from car, belonging
to the Stacy Mercantile Co. When
arranged before Judge Moe this morn
ing they admitted the charge and
were given 10 days straight in the
county Jail. A similar case several
days since, touched the heart of the
Judge as the two men arrested were
from the famous Watermelon Valley
in Texas where watermelons are as
free as water, and where taking wa
termelon is no crime, and they got off
easy, but these fellows claimed to be
hash singers from Chicago and since
the experience ought to have famil-
iarized them with the real value of mel
ons, the judge Soaked them" ten
days. They gave their names as Bill
Sullivan and Leo Mcbride.

den, from jamestown, put quietus
on the ambitions of two sooners this
week, who lurked in the weeds along
lake Eckelson, searching for ducks or
a stray chicken.
AS a result, of his activities, Nicola
Zuckero and G. Demici, transient for.
eigners, appeared in the court of JUS
tice l. J. Moe yesterday afternoon.
and paid eighteen dollars apiece for
the privileges they had taken with the
wild game of the county.
Mr.. Kulewatz is proving himself a
terror to law breakers in this respect,
this being the fifth arrest and convic-
ton he has had this week. Earlier
in the week several arrests and con-
victions were had at LaMoure county.
1t is stated, however, by the deputy
warden, that there is an evident dis.
position on the part of sportsmen to
observe the laws in regard to hunting,

He also developed the significant
fact that only two patrons of the Me-
dina postoffice have signed Karper's
petition for appointment, and that
all the others, democrats and repub.
licans, have endorsed Mrs. Dryer,
facts which place Harper in rather
peculiar position. This case has
been held up and Harper is likely to
lose out.
The other postmasterships which,
at Senator Gronna's instance and for
substantial reasons, it was decided
to hold up are.
Bowman, Myrtle Nelson, vice Will

In Workman's case nothing was
presented against him by the inves-
tigating postal inspectors other than
that his clerk was guilty of defal-
cation, which, however, could not be
really charged up against Workman,
because when he discovered the
crime he promptly notified the depart
ment and his brother or other rela-
tives of the delinquent clerk made the
amount good. ...s

900 men at one time, and the work
runs just like clock-work; everything
