BOYS MlRED IN AsPHALTuK
After the Stun Cooled They Had I.
Be Chopped Out With
Axes.

Bozeman. Mont.-Two boys playing
around asphaltum barrels used in
connection with the paving at the
corner Of Grand avenue and Koch
street had an experience that they
will not forget very soon.
Donald Stanton. Eugene Divine and
Robert Cooley were jumping from one
barrel to another when the two for.
mer boys got into the asphaltum and
began to sink. At first 1t was slight.
~ warm. as II had been left by the
workmen. but 1t got cooler, and their
efforts to extricate themselves were
without avail. Robert Cooley, after
trying in vain to help the boys out,
went to the home of Donald's parents
to report. Mr.. Stanton happened to
be- at home and went to the rescue of
the boys. but could do nothing.
Finally the foreman in charge of
the paving was summoned. and with
five men working about half an hour
chopping with axes he succeeded In
getting the asphaltum on so the boys
could be drawn out. The boys seemed
to be pretty well tired out, but other
wise we're not apparently hurt 10 any
way.

Fighting the white plague.

Adequate hospital facilities for the
$4,000 residents of Ohio who are suf-
fering from tuberculosis has been de-
cided upon by the prevention OF tuber-
culosis and officials OF the state board
of health. 1t is proposed to create
IL hospital districts Of from four to SIX
counties each, wherein campaigns will
be inaugurated for the erection Of dis
trict tuberculosis hospitals to be main
tanned Jointly by the cooperating
counties.
Through the erection Of these II
district hospitals. supplementing the
present sanatoriums; anti-tuberculosis
workers believe that the $4,000 vic
tins will be adequately cared for. and
that the people of the state will be
SO well protected through this hospi-
talization that eventually Ohio's death
rate of 1000 per year win be reduced

GOOD MANAGEMENT
OF SHEEP FLOCK
Essential to Provide Rams capa-
2 Of Producing Vigorous
Stock-Work for Autumn.

While the shepherds work is never
done there are seasons when his work
is heavier and more important than
others. and when the leaves begin to
assume the yellow tints great changes
have to be made and preparations put
in hand for the winter.
Mating of tse ewes is In full
process. Not only is it essential to
provide rams capable of producing
good stock, bat the ewes should be
qualified to breed improved offspring.
A yearling ram should be taken for
choice, while the two-shear or three
shear may answer. but no older one
is permissible.
There are flock masters who use
lamb-rams. but unless it be some such
active, hardy breed as the Horn Dor
set, and those early dropped at that,
it fs better not to adapt these young
sires. and even if adapted, In some
exceptional cases. only a dozen or a
score OF ewes should go to each.
1t is important that the shepherd
sees that all OF his breeding ewes are
sound in their feet-free from foot-rot
and other defects. and In truth
healthy in every way. for unhealthy
ewes are not likely to improve the
flock.
The practice Of breeding from lamb
mothers is to be strongly condemned.
as they are all unmatured and in
capable OF producing up-to-the-stand-
ard progeny or doing the nursing part
well.
The good shepherd shrewdly classes
his charges so that the strong and
robust may be separated from the
weakly and delicate. Then. by a little
nursing, probably in the course OF a
month or two, even the latter will
have gained in strength and hardness,
SO that they may take their feed as it
comes, and In an ordinary place in the
fold.
There are also breeding ewes to be
paid due attention. They should be
given fresh, sound old turf-land where
they may get plenty OF exercise and
yet restful quarters. From the time
the ram is removed the less disturb
ance In moving about the focks the
better.
Other important work for the shep-
herd to pay earnest regard to about

or fattening ewes. getting ready for
