INFANT MORTALITY is LOWER
Efforts Of Health Officials During Last
Five Years Have Brought Down
Death List In Cities.

What the American cities are do
ing and can do toward preventing In
FAINT mortality and the high death
rate Of children under five years Of
age is the subject Of bulletin issued
by the children's bureau OF the de-
partment Of labor. 1t is the purpose
Of the bureau 10 issue a similar bull
letin annually and in time to make
1t a complete manual for municipal
and philanthropic activities In the d.
rection of child welfare. Summer
campaigns for babies lives have been
waged with such marvelously good
effect In some cities, that It seems to
the bureau important to enlist the
energies Of as many cities in this
work as possible. To this end IT will
be helpful to collect and present for
the information of all, the little or
much that is being done by the vari-
Gus cities.
The efforts Of city health officials
have resulted In the last ten years
in reducing the general death rate
in cities, below that of the rural dis
tricts and villages. This reduction in
the general death rate is an encourag-
ing indication Of what is possible of
accomplishment In efforts to reduce
the infant death rate. Babies die Of
diseases which to a large extent are
preventable, and thus when welfare
work Is directed toward saving their
lives the response is immediate and
decided.

IHILLY PASTURES FOR SHEEP
Low Wet Ground Is Conductive to
Foot Rot-Feet Should 30 Ex-
amIned and Hoof Trimmed.

The sheep Is highland animal by
nature. Low wet ground Is injurious
to its feet. The Sleeps toes are very
flexible. Between the toes Of each
foot Is an oil duct, which pours oil
between the toes SO as to reduce fric-
ton. In low, soft ground the mud
sQueezes between the toes and clogs
this duct. The toes will spread quite
far apart and so easily that the plate
OF mud accumulates and hardens and
Irritation is set up which results In
pus formation that finally sloughs off
the hoofs If not cured. OF course this
does not happen every time sheep
gets muddy feet. But If compelled to
live in mud, there comes a time when
the mud lodges with injurious results.
We are not sure that foot rot is
bacterial disease. It may be SO. Sure
hy bacterial infection could readily
enter after the Inflammation becomes
chronic. Sheep have little resisting
power over their enemies so a little
Rilment does great damage.
When your sheep get to limping or
walking stiff, examine the feet. 1t
may be they only need their hoofs
trimmed. If dry mud is between the
toes, clean 1t out and rub little
grease between the toes. Then see
that they have a clean dry place
where no mud exists. Give your
sheep the billy pastures and not the
low land.

Growing pigs always pay their
board bill.
A little tankage and oil meal makes
excellent feed for young pigs.
A few choice lambs make suitable
farm companions for the children.
In the manger is the place to feed
everything, and not out on the
ground.
Even the law that like produces like
turns "fip.fops" when cross breeding
Is practiced
One Of the causes for weak lambs Is
the result Of compelling the ewes to
live on coarse foods.
It will be long time before there
will be an oversupply of beef, pork
and mutton in this country.
Packers are still talking lower
prices for hogs, but In spite Of this
talk the market continues healthy.
Proper rearing and judicious nam
agement will result in few bulls be-
coming vicious after they have grown
old.
II one Is obliged to feed timothy hay
good ration Of bran and Data will
help to maintain the ewes In good
condition.
Much lameness In horses Is due to
improper shoeing. Horses should be
shod by competent blacksmiths. Is
yours one?
Fix a lamb creep to exclude the
ewes. sprinkle q little bran in the
troughs and you win very soon have
the lambs eating.
A flock Of sheep will get more sub
stance on poor land and at the same
time do 1t more good than any other
stock on the farm. q
There are too few good colts raised
on the farms. This should not be.
Don't leave this important industry to
the horse breeders alons.

WHY IS POULTRY YALUABLE7
Professor Gilbert ce Canada Gives
Eight Coed Reasons IN Answer
70 Pertinent Question.

Why 10 poultry valuable 10 the
farmeri q a question asked by hun
dreds Of tiIlers Of the soil who usu-
ally keep but q few chickens, and
these mixture Of all breeds. Profess
sor Gilbert OF Ottawa. Canada, gives
the following reasons ia answer to
this pertinent question:
/ Because he ought, by their means
to convert great deal Of the waste OF
his farm into money in the shape of
eggs and chickens for market.
2. Because, with intelligent manage
ment, they ought to be allyear reve-
nue. producers, with the exception of
possibly two months during the moult-
ing season.
3. Because the poultry win yield him
a quicker return for the capital IN
vested than any Of the other depart
ments Of agriculture.
4. Because the manure from the
poultry house viii make a valuable
composite for use in either vegetable
garden or orchard. The birds them
selves, If allowed, win destroy all In
furious insect life.
s. Because, while cereals and fruits
can only be successfully grown in GER
tain sections, poultry can be raised
for table use or layers Of eggs In any
and every part Of the country, and
at all seasons.
6. Because poultry raising Is an en-
ployment in which the farmers wife
can engage and leave him free to at
tend to other departments Of farm
work.
z. Because it win bring the best re-
suits in the shape Of new-laid eggs
during the winter season, when the
farmer has the most time on his
hands.
s. Because to start poultry on the
farm requires very little capital.

only the most vigorous, and these al

Clinton Vannah In the Orange Judd
Farmer.
An excellent old-fashioned way to
raise cucumbers and melons In the
Kitchen garden is to dig a circular
hole In the ground from six to ten
inches deep and three feet across In
the center of the excavation place on
end a nail cask with both ends
knocked out. Then fill the space
around the outside Of the cask with
a compost Of good loan and rotted
stable manure, or droppings from the
hennery we'll pulverized and thorough
1y mixed with the earth. Cover the
compost with two or three inches Of
loan, and plant the seed near the
cask.
Fill the cask with muck, or light
manure from the horse stable, that
will hold moisture like a sponge, In
case of drouth, water may be poured
into the cask freely, it will not evap-
crate readily, and gives gradual
supply to the plants as they require.
Small holes should be bored through
the slaves OF the cask to allow out
ward seepage Of water.
If the ground is naturally inclined
to dampness no excavation below the
level should be made Place the cask
on the surface and build a mound OF
compost around 1t. To give the vines
freedom Of growth the casks should
be set eight or nine feet apart each
way.
