(Same source and Issue)
Within the past few weeks repeat.
ed reports have reached us regarding
an unfavorabre state of things in the
Isthmus of Panama. It is said that
the necessary waters for the use of
the canal are not forthcoming. Caicu-
lations as to the capacity of Gatun
Lake and it's tributary, the Chagres
river; have, proven erroneous. The
average water level of the lake, after
some trial, has shown the engineers
to be wrong in their figures. AS to
the truth OF these fears and reports
there is nothing to be said as yet ;
but it would seem necessary for Col.
onel Goethals to say something on
the subject.

PARALYSIS in Hogs.

Partial or complete paralysis of the
hind legs of hogs is seen so often in
swine herds that a common cause has
been suspected but not definitely de
termined.
Inbreeding. parasites, and an unbal-
anced ration. have each in turn been
assigned as the probable cause Of this
particular form OF paralysis. and now
it is quite generally attributed to g
lack of phosphate of lime. This salt
in a form that can be appropriated
may be deficient in the ration or not
properly appropriated by the tissues
OF the body. or again. it may be be
cause of a drain on the system for
phosphates TO nourish the growing fe-
tus or the young after birth.
It is a we'll known fact that there
is a deficiency of phosphate of lime
in the bones and other tissues of preg-
nant animals and in those that are
sucking their young. This is especial
" true to the sow. But this condition
is not confined TO pregnant animals.
In one instance nero OF "A noss OIL
both sexes, and ages ranging from ten
months to two years, nearly all OF
them were affected with partial
or complete paralysis of the hind legs.
The ration had been largely raw pota-
toes.
They appeared to suffer no pain,
the appetite was quite normal A bal
anced ration would probably have
prevented this condition. The follow
/ ing treatment has been recommended
and should be helpful in these cases:

MAKING A SPLIT LOG DRAG
Anyone Can flake One to Cost FROM
Almost Nothing to $3.50, DEPEND
ing on Materials Used.

A subscriber in Latah county, ldaho,
asks us to give him a plan for making
a split log drag for working the ROADS
in his county, and also wants to know
how TO use one. says the Western
Farmer.
The drag may be made of log, say
eight feet long and u inches through,
split in the middle, or of two pieces OF
sawed oak or other substantial WOOD
2 by s inches. After a log is split, CIV
ing two fiat, faced slabs, bore three
two-inch holes in each slab, as SHOWN
in drawing; connect the slabs, facing
the same direction, with three stakes
or rounded by 3s long enough 10
leave three feet of space between the
slabs after the connecting pieces nave
been driven into the holes. Two OF
three planks can be nailed to these
pieces. affording a place for the driver
to stand, and, at the same time.
Strengthening the drag. Use chain
or strong rope for attachment to the
double-tree. Supposing the drag to
face west, and assuming that chain
is used. fasten one end of the chain TO
or around the left hand outside con-
Meeting brace, letting the chain pass
over the top OF the slab. If attached
to the face of the slab. near the left
hand end. the chain would interfere
with the movement of dirt toward that
end OF the drag The drag is run at
an angle Of about - degrees, so that
dirt can be thrown toward one side
The other end of the chain must be
fastened TO the face of the front slab
near where the right hand connecting
piece comes through, and not around
the connecting piece. as it is in the
illustration.
Shoe about three feet OF the bottom
edge fright hand side OF the front slab
with a piece of iron or steel of the
right length, about three inches wide
and a half inch thick. with one edge
sharp or beveled. Put it on securely.
letting the sharp edge project about
half an inch below the edge of the slab.
This shoe will enable the drag better
to shave the surface and cut down the
hard ridges which are usually met on
roads that have not been kept smooth.
A good drag will cost from almost
nothing to $3.50. depending on the ma

to ten years. Anybody can make one.
Roads should be dragged 10 or II
times n year. The time is after each
soaking rain, so that the drag will
form smooth mud coat on the sur
face. When the frost is leaving the
ground is an excellent time; the drag
should be in use from then until win
ter. The work does not interfere with
ordinary farming operations, as when
IL ie the right time to drag the soil is
too wet or the conditions unsuited for
many kinds of field work. II is diff

dragging. Used at the right time and
with proper frequency on practically
all types of earthly soils and those OF

istics of an ideal dirt road The pro
cess will form q sort of shell or casing
over the surface which will shed water
like roof. and by distributing travel
over the entire area, instead of CON

constantly increase In solidity. At the
outset dragging cannot be done so
rapidly as when the road has been
shaped up by several sweeps of the
drag: after this preliminary work. the
Job can be dcne in half the time orig
inally required. Any boy and farm
team can operate the drag.
