Calf diphtheria is a serious disease

There is fever, and an offensive odor

Rather Easy Task.

Are you giving that young foal the
proper care? To become a strong.
sound horse, when matured the foal
must be well nourished and given
every advantage possible.
The foal should be taught to eat
grain very early. BY placing the feed
box from which the dam eats her grain
now, the foal, at about two months of
age, will begin nibbling with the moth
er, and will soon acquire taste for
the grain.
A pen built in one corner of the
field made high enough to keep the
mare out and allow the colt to pass
under will make it possible to feed
the foal grain with very little diff

Senator Townsend the other day
moved that the war claims bill be sub

claims bill carries a great amount of
money which is due to southern people
The courts have passed upon these
claims and they should be paid. If the
southern people were consulted, 95 per
cent of them would favor the passage
OF that measure rather than the ship
purchase bill.
I have had a large number of pro-
tests against the ship bill. and only one
letter favoring it's passage. That was
