BODIES
CHOKED
STREAM

Newspaper correspondents de-
scribe horrible scenes on battletieds
abandoned by the AuStro- Germany
forces" says the London Morning
Posts Petrograd correspondent.
Streams. they say, were chOked
with slain men trodden down in the
headIong flight till the waters wore
damned and overlooking the banks.
Piles of dead are awaiting the burial
or burning. Hundreds of acres ara
sown with bodies and Uttered with
weapons and battle debris, while
wounded and riderleSS horses are
careering madly over the abandoned
country.
THE line of retreat of the AuStrO-
German forces was blocked with de-
briS of every kind-valuable military
supplies, telephone and telegraph in
stallations, light railway and other
stores, bridging material-in fact,
everything needed by modern army
was flung away in flight. More than
1000 wagons with commissiariat
supplies were captured.
The Bourse Gazette, apparently
inspired, declares Russia will enter
into no peace negotiations direct or
indirect, until PruSSian militarism is
crushed"

DRY POLICY BENEFICIAL
Kansas Bankers Say Prohibition is
the Greatest Friend of
Business"

The Temperance Society OF the
Methodist church has just completed
a poll of all the bankers in Kansas
copducted to ascertain their opinion
OF the effect of prohibition upon bus
mess.
One hundred sixty-fve bankers
hastened to acclaim the prohibition
policy as marvellous business asset
Six opposed the prohibitory law, but
several OF these are vague in their
opposition and do not advocate 4 re-
turn to license.
These men are hard-headed bust
ness men; big financial leaders. They
know the law and its effects Their
testimony will absolutely and finally
settle the matter in the thinking OF
any honest and intelligent man. Here
is what few OF them have to say:

grcss OF Kansas. morally. education

says Charles f. McAdams. vice pres

Since the state has had prohibit
iton on its statute books there is
more money per capita by nearly dou-
BILE than under the anti-prohibition
regime The bankers OF the state
would stand as one man against re-
peal OF the prohibition law" So says

urer OF the Farmers State Trust COM

Puff Balls As Food.

1t is not generally known that the
ball shaped fungi commonly known
as puff balls which appear at this time
OF the season in moist pastures or
even dooryards are choice articles OF
food for persons who are fond OF
mushrooms. They are often abundant
on the grazing grounds in our foot
hills and mountain meadows where
they sometimes reach size nearly
as large as a football None OF the
puff balls are poisonous and as they
are easily recognized. they may be
safely gathered by almost anyone
with the assurance that no danger
will follow their eating The only
precaution necessary is to gather
them while they are fresh and firm
and before any yellowish or brown
ish coloration oil the interior appears.
When in the proper condition they
are almost pure white inside and
somewhat resemble cottage cheese
when broken open. They are well
adapted to the method of cooking
employed in the preparation OF
French toast. After cutting them in
slices about one-half or two-thirds
inch in thickness, they may be fried
in butter or fat after being first dipped
in milk and egg batter They also
lend themselves readily 10 other
methods OF cookery such as are en-
ployed for the common mushroom.

BAD JUDGMENT.
Sheep Losses in the Feed Lots

We are nearing the lamb feeding
season and one of the important fac
tors that makes for profit or loss, as
the case may be. is the percentage OF
lambs that will die in the feed lots.
Other things being favorable, on an
average, loss of one per cent in the
feed lots is considered nomial and
means satisfactory profit on the in
vestment. but loss ranging from
three to ten per cent, cuts heavily on
the prohts or may be responsible for
q disastrous financial loss for the sea-
son. A small loss is to be expected
from accidents in handling and other
seemingly unavoidable conditions in
cident to change of feed and environ
mcnt, but when the losses are as much
as five per cent, as they have been in
many instances, there is sometime
radically wrong with the sheep or
.leir management.
There is no widespread infection
among sheep in Colorado to menace
the lamb feeding, industry. The heavy
losses in the feed lots are in most in
stances accounted for. We all know
from our experiences in handling an
imals. how susceptible most OF the
domestic animals are to digestive dis
turbances from sudden changes of
feed, water, and conditions of envir-
onment.
While on the range lambs eat the
native grasses and have from five to
ten miles exercise every day. When
they are brought to the feed lots,
conditions are all changed; they pile
up in the restricted quarters and be-
come over heated The feed is
changed abruptly to alfalfa which is
usually of inferior quality. Within
the next fortnight they are expected
TO begin making gains on ration
OF straw and molasses. pea-vine en-
silage. sugar beet tops Gotten mouldy)
concentrates of wheat. corn, barley,
field peas, or various mixtures OF
these things with alfalfa hay. The
feeder should always bear in mind
that whcr = lakes lambs from the
natural conditions of the range and
places them under highly artificial
conditions, he is jeopardizing the
health of his sheep and the welfare
of his enterprise. The first month
should be given to seasoning the
lambs to their new conditions, and
gains should not be expected.
The crux of the whole matter is
that the heavy losses in the feed lots
but to bad judgment in feeding and
handling. For this reason the losses
are usually heaviest during the first
month. and change of feed. un-
wholesome feed. or sudden increase
in the amount of feed, will mean
more pelts on the fence
To feed lambs without heavy loss
and secure satisfactory gains necessi-
tates eternal vigilance, experience
and common sense, and there is no
other business that requires more.
