the Hebrew fashion. The Urdu is a
sort OF scrip and is SO chaotic in shape
that it is impossible to reduce it to
the movable type form. Papers print

Fortress They have Followed up
Their Victory.
London, April o.--The Russian army,
which took the Austrian fortress OF
Przcmysl, has achieved another vic
tory. Starting westward from the
Galician stronghold Immediately after
its fall, the Muscovitcs now have en-
tered the Beskid mountains--a range
which connects the Little Carpathians
with the eastern Carpathians and
forms part OF the boundary between
Galicia and Hungary and driven out
the Austrians, who had stubbornly
held the passes and heights. Brief in
deed is Nicnna's account that this van
tagc point, the gateway to the plans Of
northern Hungary, has been cyacua-
ed. 1t says merely that the Austrians
were compelled to make the move be-
cause OF the presence Of large Rus
Sian reiniorccments from PrZcmysl.
To the eastward in the Carpathans
sanguinary fighting is taking place.
Both the !NustrianS and the Russians
claim victories at various points and
the capture Of men and guns. In the
regOn Of Nirawa, Austria asserts that
1920 prisoners were taken. In the
vicinity OF IalcScitrow almost all the
defenders of Russian Notifications
were killed by the heavy guns OF the
Austrians when tho position was
taken. This admission is made by the

CHOLERA is GERM DISEASE
Domestic Animals, Such as Dogs and
Cats, and Also Birds Are Free
quent Carriers of Infection.

Hog cholera generally is recognized
as a very contagious, infectious, germ
disease 1t is caused by an organism
described az small enough to pass
through any kind of filter and still re-
tain it's disease producing power.
No one has been able to identify the
germ which is the specific cause of
Ahe disease. 1t is contained In the
blood of sick animals, and is given off
in the urine; thus communicating the
yards and pens in which such animals
are kept. 1t may be carried by
streams, on the shoes OF persons who
ener the yards or pers. or by horses
or cattle from one farm to another.
Dogs. cats, rabbits and birds also
are frequent carriers Of the Infection

ment of Agriculture.)
Although the bluebird frequents our
orchards and gardens and builds its
nests in cavities of trees, there seems
to be no evidence that it is a fruit
thief Neither does the bird seem to
prey upon crops
The eastern bluebird, one of the
most familiar and welcome of our
feathered visitors, is common inhab-
liant of all the states east OF the
Rocky Mountains from the Gulf of
Mexico to southern Canada. In the
Mississippi valley it winters as far
north as southern Illinois, and in the
East as far as Pennsylvania. It is one
of the earliest northern migrants, and
everywhere is hailed as harbinger OF
spring.
It is evident that in the selection
of its food the bluebird Is governed
more by abundance than by choice.
Predaceous beetles are eaten In
spring, as they are among the first in
sects to appear; but in early summer
caterpillars form an important part
of the diet, and these are later replaced

OWN REGISTERED LIVE STOCK
Practical knowledge of Business
Should be Obtained Before Start
inc With Pure-6reds.

The desire to own registered stock
is praiseworthy, but until man is
well fitted by experience and inclina.
ton to handle registered stock he will
find 1t better to go cautiously until he
has gained a practical knowledge OF
the business.
There Is no mystery regarding the
breeding and management of pure
bred stock. still they require mate
rally different treatment than is usu.
ally afforded the common scrub stock.
These improved animals do not re-
quire pampering or babying but they
do require good care and enough to
eat and that they cannot obtain when
wintered around straw stacks and
fence corners.
The farmer who has made good
success with a grade herd or flock will
not find the transition to pure breds
very difficult. If man knows abso-
lutely nothing about breeding regis
tered stock he will do we'll to gain
the necessary experience by grading
UP his scrub animals before he invests
in pure-bred stock. At least he should
gain the actual experience in some
way before he makes the plunge.
There are many men who buy pure
bred stock who should never be in
the business and the result is that
their stock is byword and de-
rision-a very disgrace to the name
pure-bred. Some men have jumped
suddenly into fame by breeding i'm
proved live stock, but usually we will
find that these men gained practical
knowledge of the science of breeding
while handling their grade animals
that made their success possible.

TAKE COMFORT IN TOBACCO
Soldiers at the Front Find Solace in
Their Supply of the "Sootf-
ing Weed"

Good stories about smoking and
smokers continue to fill the space in
the British papers not occupied by
news of major engagements.
The following tribute has been paid
to Gen. Sir Philip Chetwode' by Sergt
A. Bowler of the Fifth Signal corps,
r. E., who is at the front: Il have
watched him calmly smoking a ciga-
rette when shells have been dropping
all over the place. think that If all
the German army were firing at him
he would carry on as usual, smoking
his cigarette and giving his orders as
if he were at his club ordering a
drink"
In mid February German soldiers on
the western frontier received daily two
cigars and two cigarettes, or an equal
amount of chewing tobacco, snuff or
pipe tobacco.
