DOG CAUSES A
LOT OF TROUBLE
Mr.. Erlenmeyer Writes Lette,
Calling Attention to Ordinances
Not Enforced.

/ There has been considerable spec.
ulation among people in this city rel
ative to the laws pertaining to the
muzzling of dogs since the dog at.
tackled William Erlenmeyer's little
child late Wednesday evening, and
badly lacerated it's fact. During the
afternoon and evening, at the request
Of Mr.. Erlenmeyer, the police were
investigating the case The city at
torney was called in and the matter
at this time is still up in the air. The
dog is still alive and the question
arises as to what is the law in the
case.
Must People MuzIe Dogs?
"Must people muzzle their dogs
when they leave them running loose
on the streets?' has been asked
scores of times today. The old or
dinances state that dogs must be
muzzled if they are allowed any lib.
erty. Otherwise dog owners must
keep the animals tied in secure
place, where they can do no harm.
Much Wrought Up Over Affair.
Mr.. Erlenmeyer has expressed con.
siderable indignation over the affair.
Others have also manifested uneasi.
ness about the matter of dogs rum
ming loose on the streets and are
wondering who will be next to be bit
ten. The police are doing all in their
power to amicably adjust the difficult
ties and if, when the matter is thor
oughly investigated, it is found that
the dog has been of cross and trou-
blesOme nature, the immediate des-
patch Of the animal will follow.
A Communication.
May 81, 1914.
To the Editor Bismarck Tribune,
City.
Dear Sir:
| want to publicly protest against
the present conditions whereby nu-
merous dogs run loose on the streets
of Bismarck and endanger the health
and possibly lives of the public.
Last evening my little boy was at.
tackled by savage dog, which bit a
deep cash in his cheek, barely MISS
ing his left eye, tearing a great cash
in the cheek, disfiguring the child
for life, while the dogs lower fangs
pierced the child's right cheek.
DR.. Ramstad says there is danger
of the ch..d losing sight in the left
eye, or if the eye can be saved 1t
will probably water and run during
his life. Although the officers atten-
tion has been called to this matter,
the dog is permitted to run at large
on the streets today.
Such a horrible disfguration, suf.
fering and possible loss of life is en-
tirely unnecessary, and is reflection
on our intelligence, to permit condi-
tions whereby dogs running loose
may attack children in this manner.
All dogs should be licensed and regis
tered with the city authorities, ac-
cording to the present city ordinance,
and in addition, should ne kept tied
up, or securely muzzled if permitted
to run the streets.
WILLIAM F. ERLENMEYER.

FARMERS ARE GREAT MOVERS
Figures Show That Many Aericuitur.
lists Move Before They Become
Acquainted With Farms.

Statistics prepared under the direc-
tion of the department of commerce
show that farmers are incessantly
moving.
Replies from nearly 100000 farm
ers in answer to the question how
long they had resided upon their
farms showed that 50 per cent had
moved within five years Over 1,0O0.-
900 farmers had moved within a year.
In the North, 81 per cent had lived
upon their farms five years or longer:
in the West, A per cent, and in the
South, Al per cent.
These figures are significant in the
opinion of the government authori-
ties, because they show that farmers
move before they have had time to
become acquainted with the various
conditions of the soil and climate of
any one locality, this lack of knowl-
edge resulting in a small yield of
crops per acre, in neglect OF buildings.
and in failure to conserve the fertility
of the soil. Still nothing can be done
about the matter until some way can
be found to eradicate the rowing germ
in human nature.

FALL CLEANING OF ORCHARD
Cut Out the Trees of Small Value and
Use for Firewood-keep Live
Stock Out in Winter.

This is a god time to clean out the
orchard In the older sections there
are orchards in which many of the
trees are of little or no value, ex-
cept for firewood. Cut them out and
make cordwood of the things that
have been a source of appointment
rather than profit. Plant standard
varieties in their stead. Windstorms
may have injured orchards badly. The
broken limbs should be taken out,
the wounds covered with thick paint
and the brush gathered into lunches
and burned.
Plum trees suffer more from injury
occasioned by windstorms than apple
trees. Cut the tops back more or less
while the trees are small to correct
this weakness. Burn brush heaps and
piles of rubbish wherever they will
harbor rabbits, which are a natural
enemy to the orchard. Don't allow
any live stock inside the orchard in
winter. Sheep and horses are worse
than rabbits, because they will eat
the trees as well as the bark

NOTES FROM HOG LOT
Money in Pushing the Pigs for
Early Maturity.
No Farm Animal More Fully Appre-
ciates Pure Water Than Swine
Provide Plenty Of Range
Keep Yards Sanitary.

Movable hog houses have come TO
stay.
Early maturity decreases the FISK
from disease.
The piP's bed is of as much 1mpor-
lance as his food.
The breed is Of less importance
than the surroundings.
1t does not pay to allow pigs to run
through a wet pasture.
Bran is an excellent substitute for
succulence in the sows ration.
1t is a poor idea to think that any
one breed is free from disease.
liberal feeding Of roots to the
brood sows insures healthy pigs.
Thousands of young pigs are annu-
ally lost through lack Of exercise,
TO be successful man must be
particular with his breeding stock.
The cost of the product is lessened
by pushing the pigs for early ma
turity.
Glover is our cheapest hog food, and
every farmer should plan to use all
he car.
Health is natural disease is unnat'
ural. health is contagious as well as
disease.
To make hogs profitable we must
provide plenty of range. that we may
keep their yards clean and sanitary
A successful hog grower must DO
this thinking for himself after he
reads the writings of other hog-grow'
ers.
Maintaining a steady gain in weight
and a high degree of health are two
secrets of success in making pork
cheaply
The less of condition at weaving
time may be greatly reduced if the

Denver.-F'or the first time in the
history of the state the crop output Of
Colorado exceeded s10O,000,00O, ac-
cording to statistics compiled by the
greater Colorado bureau of the Den
yer Chamber of Commerce.
Figures given in the report were
compiled from the government crop
report by officials of railroads and
county officers of the state. The out
put at current prices as given by the
report is $lO3,OOO,000. That is an in
crease over last year of s15,000.000.
The report includes figures on pou-
try and dairy products.
The following gains are claimed by
the report:
New land put under cultivation in
1914, $4,000 acres.
New families located in Colorado,
exclusive of Denver, II 900, less $500
reported moved out, leaves net gain Of
$500.
"Ten per cent increase in value of
livestock output reported giving to-
tai this year of $53,500,000.
'Reports from mineral counties in
dicate the coming on of a strong re-
vival in mining, but this years output
is placed little, if any, above that Of
last year.
Increase in value of farm property,
S22,000,000.
The report says that wool, which is
usually included in the agricultural
output, is not included in the figures
given. Colorado, for the first time,
produced all the turkeys and poultry
used in the Thanksgiving trade. The

"Thy Will Be Done"

For instance, when you wish, and
by every means endeavor, to be we'll,
and yet remain ill-then say, "Thy
will be DONE" When you undertake
something, and your undertaking does
not succeed, say, "Thy will be DONE"
When you do good to others, and
they repay you with evil, say, THY
will be done" Or when you will like
to sleep, and are overtaken with
sleeplessness, say, "Thy will be DONE"
In general, do not become irritated
when anything is not done in accord
ance with your will, but learn to
submit to the will of the heavenly
father.-Father John.

pigs have been accustomed to supple
mentary foods.
While the hog is considered the
most filthy Of animals, yet no kind of
animal appreciates pure water more
than the hog.
Better send the pigs to bed hungry
than to send them into a wet nest
with full stomach. The results are
the same and the cost less.
1t will pay any hog-grower to dip
all of his growing pigs, at least once
month, to keep their skin in good
condition tnd free from lice.
in economical pig-feeding we must
make the most Of our grain feeds by
mingling them with coarse cheap
foods, thereby reducing the cost Of
the ration.
Every change in feeding should be
gradual and with an eye open to note
the results. 1t is no more our mis-
sion to keep the hogs healthy than it
Is to plan our equipment SO that they
may keep themselves so.
