Dangers to the Eye.

I'm Science their opinion that the al
legged dangers to the eye from ultra.
violet radiation of sunlight and vari-
|Ous artificial lights amount to nothing
|at all. They admit that there have
been many Sensational attacks" upon
modern illuminants as dangerous by
reason of injurious effects of ultra
violet or actinic rays, but these have
r'entirely neglected any quantitative
Relation between the radiation and its
supposed pathological effects" Very

IMPORTANT NOTES
OF THE SHEEPFOLD
Animals Are Excellent Farm
Cleaners, Weed Destroyers
and Fertilizers.

As the country ages and the fertility
of its fields becomes exhausted its ap-
probation of the sheep will increase.
Early maturity is an important
quality to consider in selecting sheep.
Whether you are keeping sheep for
pleasure or profit, your desires will be
more fully met If your flock is Of gu
perior quality.
A strong sheep does not necessarily
have to mean large one; in fact, q
majority Of the strongest sheep are
medium in size.
Every sheep owner should keep a
purebred ram, but every man Is not
qualified to keep purebred stock
Everything possible should be done
to bring the ewes to vigorous, flesh
forming condition at the mating
period.
Sheep are excellent farm cleaners,
weed killers and fertilizers.
The man Wild desires large profits
from his flock should afford 1t the
best that good management will pro-
duce.
Nothing need be wasted on the farm
where sheep are kept-tufts of grass,
weeds and aftermaths and odd bits
Of feed can all be utilized and con-
verted into wool and mutton.

MEDIUM LITTER OF
PIGS IS BEST PLAN
Idea of Selecting Sow to Grow
Large Number Of Young Is
Not Good Practice.
nv A. ]. LEGG.)

II is customary with hog raisers
when selecting brood SOW, to want
one with a large number of teats In
order to accommodate large litter OF
pigs. / had an inquiry from custo-
mer some time ago for two SOW pigs
and he said that people told him that
a SOW should have IA teats.
There are few sows with so many
teats and really the very large litter
is not in my opinion the most pront-
able one anyway A SOW with ordinary
care cannot properly nourish more
than 8 or 10 pigs and l am not sure
that but or is better than 10.
have had sows with 10 and IL pigs
but there are always some runts that
do not grow fast. 1t takes just about
all that the SOW can digest to keep the
pigs making satisfactory growth. The
sows with or pigs will keep them
growing rapidly and believe as many
pounds of pork as the large filters and
there is not such strain on the sow's
system to provide food for the pigs.
have a SOW now with six pigs. She
is getting moderate feeding twice a
day and the pigs are growing rapidly
This SOW has raised and 9 pigs to
the litter heretofore, but she never
grew SO uniformly nice pigs before.
Taking everything into consideration
/ believe that the medium sized litter
is more profitable than the very large
litter and that the idea of selecting
SOW to grow very large filters is a
mistake and wrong standard to meas
ure by when selecting brood sows.

CRy ]. c. lDUNCAN.A

Now, is it possible for US to breed
a sheep Of the butchers ideal type
and still retain the vigorous constitu-
ton necessary in a healthy breeding
animal?
l say no. Why? Because 1t is
against the laws of nature. In our
locks we must have head and neck,
brisket, shank and side meat in order
to get that strong constitution that is
necessary for the animal to possess
for the development Of the more ex-
pensive cuts of the butchers ideal.
In order to bring the breeder and
the consumer nearer one ideal it Is
necessary for US as breeders, to see
that our mutton sheep come as near
the butchers ideal as is consistent,
without impairing the constitution of
our breeding flocks.

Corrosive SubIimate Is a Fine An
tiSeptiC-Several Other Use
full Drugs.

Turpentine with milk-one part tur.
pentine to 16 parts milk, is good for
stomach worms in sheep.
Use blue stone or common blue
vitriol as an antiseptic for wounds.
Use one to four drains in pint OF
water, or even stronger. 1t is a great
germ-killer.
Corrosive sublimate is a fine anti
septic, but care must be taken in its
use. 1t can be had in small tablets
with directions for it's use. Always
label it. POISON"
A good condition powder is made
as follows: Sulphate of iron, two
ounces; nux vomica seed, one ounce;
gentian root, two ounces; nitrate of
potash, two ounces. Have your drug
gist pulverize each well, mix thorough
ly and give a teaspoonful three times
a day in the feed.
Every medicine chest ought to con-
tain a bottle of carbolized vaseline.
1t is good for chapped hands. and for
chapped heels on horses.
Pure acetic acid will remove warts.
Boric acid is an excellent remedy
for sore mouth, sore eyes and roup in
chickens. Use 20 grains to one ounce
Of water
Ringworm and enlarged glands may
be reduced by tincture of iodine.
Paint once daily, until the parts be-
come sore, then cover with vaseline.
In order to reduce swelling in
horses. caused by great strain, an ap-
plication of one drachm each of crys-
tai iodine and powdered cantha1ides
and an ounce of vaseline, will often
give relief.
For soft tumors, or swellings, the
following ointment is often very effica-
cious. One drachm each of powdered
cantharides, biniodide of mercury and
oil Of turpentine mixed with one ounce
Of vaseline. Apply freely and rub well
for ten minutes. Wipe off with a
cloth and about the third day apply
some lard or vaseline. After two DAYS
apply the blister again, and repeat
until the enlargement subsidies.
