VALUE OF ALFALFA

Considerable Experiment Work
Done by Utah and Illinois
Stations With Crop.

The Utah experiment station has
been doing considerable work to prove
the value Of alfalfa as a feed for horses
and makes the following statement re-
garding it:
I'm comparing alfalfa and timothy as
roughages for horses, the result of six
tests under varying conditions of work
show that it is not as difficult to main
tain weights of horses when fed alfalfa
as when fed timothy. The cost of
maintenance was greater in every
case, except one. OF timothy than on
alfalfa. The appearance of the horses
In every comparison of alfalfa and
timothy was in favor of the alfalfa fed
horses"
The Illinois experiment station has
made this statement in reference to
When alfalfa hay is fed as the
roughage part Of a ration for farm
horses at hard work, less grain Is nee.
essary to prevent them from losing
weight than when timothy hay is fed.
In this test there was a saving of
about twenty-five per cent. Of grain"
We may add that in most instances
where men have failed to get the de-
sired results in the feeding of alfalfa
hay to horses or mules, that too much
has been given them, says Hoard's

GENERAL CAMPAIGN
ON HOG CHOLERA
State and Federal Governments
Must Have Hearty Co-0pera-
ton of All Farmers.

Hog cholera has existed in the Unit.
ed States for rs years, and it is safe
to say that in each of the last rs years
the farmers Of this country have lost
millions of hogs from this disease.
Tt& united States department of
agriculture believes that success in
any attempt to eradicate hog cholera
will depend upon the establishment Of
efficient organizations by the state
and federal governments which will
work together. They must, however,
have the full cooperation and support
Of the farmers. With the organiza-
tons perfected the idea is that when
hog cholera breaks out on the farm
1t will be the duty Of those ~organiza-
tions then and there to restrict the
disease to the one farm where 1t al
ready exists by instituting suitable
measures of quarantine and also by
the administration OF the protective
serum to the droves on adjoining
farms. AS is already known, the de-
partment is now testing out In a few
sections this method Of combating hog
cholera. In the meantime, while the
necessary information preliminary to
a general campaign against hog chol-
era is being secured, farmers may do
much to protect themselves and help
to restrict the disease by a careful OBJ
Of a few simple rules, such
as the following:
a. Do not locate hog lots near a
public highway, a railroad or a
stream. The germ of hog cholera may
be carried along any n of these
avenues.
ca Do not allow strangers or neigh.
bors to enter your hog lots and do
not go into your neighbors' lots. The
germ of hog cholera may be readily
carried in a small amount Of dirt On
your shoes.
90 Do not put new stock, either
hogs or cattle, in lots with the herd
already on the farm. Newly pur-
chased hogs should be put in separate
Enclosures well separated from the
herd on the farm, and kept under OBJ
.servation for three weeks. because
practically all stock cars. unloading
chutes and pens are infected with hog
cholera and hogs shipped by rail are
therefore apt to contract hog cholera.
az Hogs sen to fairs should be
guaranteed for at least three weeks
after they return to the farm.

to lamb by herself. While she can get
up and down do not help her in any
way; directly she has done trying, and
cannot get up. then help her over her
trouble by getting the lamb away
gently.
Sometimes the lamb comes the
wrong way, others with a leg back.
and in a case of this kind 1t is some.

The trouble of heaving is often
brought about through the shepherd

all is over get the mother on her legs.
and put the lamb up to her to clean.
The mother being all right and the
lamb trying to suck, the next thing to
do is to examine her udder and see
that both nipples are free from any OBJ
%struction.
Sometimes a eve is found to have a
chill in the udder, which must be well
rubbed with a good udder mixture of
camphorated oil, and If we'll attended
to, she will soon get all right. Many a
W loses a quarter in this way
through neglect.
Any loose wool around the udder
should be gently pulled off. as there is
danger Of lambs getting some in their
stomachs, which would perhaps end in
%stoppage. A very good plan while the

- We ~
No other stock require more care in
winter than in-lamb ewes. Too many
roots, frosty grass, hustled about by
dogs through muddy gateways, etc,
are all apt to bring disaster when
lambing time comes.
A few roots. a good run on dry pas
ture or down, and plenty Of good sound
hay in racks nights and morning, are
what is required for breeding ewes.
Too many roots are certain to bring
many dead lambs into the lambing
yards. Very serious losses have been
traced to this cause, but a few roots
given with discretion every day will
greatly benefit the ewes.
The ewes should be kept in a regular
steady thriving state; on no account
keep ewes short ono day and stuff the
next. They must not be turned out on
a frosty morning until they have had a
little hay in racks.
Rock salt should always be kept
handy. being N of the chief items
of a ewes diet. Bad management with
in-lamb ewes is the root of most Of the
trouble and losses at lambing time.
The Landing yards should be made
on a level piece of old ley, If possible,
and sheltered from north or northeast.
and in an open dry position near hay
and straw ricks. Two square yards
should be made with hurdles adjoining
each other, with each pen made of
foul hurdles matched at top. The
lumber of pens and size Of the yards
must be according to number OF ewes
to lamb. To use the same yard year
by year is the way to cause disaster.
When the ewes begin to drop their
lambs, the shepherd must be constant
ly with them. keeping an eye on any
eve likely to lamb. and not losing
sight of her until she is over her trou-
BILE, and lamb and mother seen safely

THE CAUSE OF MALARIA

The history of the medical treat.
ment OF malaria Is unique. The first
specific for any disease was found in
1910, when quinine cured the malaria
of the Countess Ell Cinchon. Sir Pat.
rick Manson suggested in 1894 that
the mosquito might be the carrier OF
the malarial parasite, and Major Ron
aid Ross, in 1897, identified the Ano-
pheles as the culprit which, from the
time of Hippocrates, had borne the re-
lapsing malartal fevers around the
world. Undoubtedly the most impor-
tant discovery since that Of Major
Ross is now announced by DR.. Wade
H. Brown, Of the University Of North
Carolina, in the July number OF the
Rockefeller Institutes Journal Of Ex-
detrimental Medicine. Hematin. which
may be artifically produced. is the pig.
ment secreted by the malarial para.
site. DR.. Brown. aided by a grant from
the Rockefeller institute, identified
this chemical substance and reported
upon 1t in a paper printed in June.
1912. He now finds that this pigment.
which ~sutfuses the blood of malarial
patients, is the active factor In pro-
noting the disease. While %quinine is
