1t is noticeable that while farmers
boys are flocking to the cities to do
clerical drudgery at little more than
starvation wages the far-sighted bust
ness men are investing heavily in farm
property. More than half of the wealth
lest business men of Chicago have
bought and are buying farms. The
fact is a significant one for young
farmers to bear in mind 1t means that
while the value of property is at low
ebb now, the time will come when
much of the best farm property will be
in the hands of those who are paying
smart country boys $40 per week for
ten to fifteen hours counter or desk
work per day.-Chicago Drovers' Jour.

The severity also greatly increases
with each subsequent attack.
Treatment.
If medicine is administered by the
mouth great care must be taken that
the animal is able to swallow, and to
prevent the medicine getting into the
larynx and thence into the lungs. Pur
gatiyes may be administered and are
advantageous. Creolin should be given
as an antiseptic and to prevent fer
tmentation in the paunch.
A better plan is to inject the medl
cine under the skin and thereby avoic
the danger of getting it into the lungs
Owing to the feeble pulse, it is Otter
necessary to inject stimulants.
