AT LAST.

The County Board Of Health got together one day
last week and reorganized with DR.. E. C. Gevedon, of
Grassy Creek President and Dr. B. F. Carter of West
Liberty as Secretary and Health Officer notice to the
people of this town published in last weeks COURIER
and printed notices prepared to be given to every
citizen of West Liberty, ordering them to clean up their
premises without further delay be prepared to pay the
penalty for failing to do So Earlier in the season the
Board of Town Trustees passed drastic and comprehen
sive ordinance ordering cleaning up of the town and
towering the Town Marshal to enforce the same but with
the exception of little weedcutting and the removal of
small amount of rubbish nothing was DONE The state
of affairs existing in West Liberty does little credit to
either officers citizens, and if the County Board of
Health can and will bring about an improvement of con-
dtons, the people who interested in cleanliness and
sanitation will take off their hats to them.

HORSE ON OPERATING TABLE
Boston Animal Hospital Equipped
With the Most Modern Surgical
Apparatus.

In Boston's new animal hospital, the
most modern in the country, there has
been installed a special operating Ia
BILE for horses, reports the Worlds
Advance The table itself has the
form of a tipping rack, which can be
moved from vertical to horizontal
position.
BY the proper arrangement Of
straps, blocks and tackle the horse
can be firmly fastened to the table
while in it's vertical position. AS the
table is swung into its horizontal po-
sition by means of a geared crank the
animal is slowly lifted off its feet and
finally is stretched out in horizontal
position ready for the veterinary sur
geon. When the operation upon the
animal is complete and 1t is still un-
der the anesthetic the table top and
the horse are removed to a room car
peted with tanbark. There the straps
are loosed and the animal placed on
the soft floor, to remain until it re-
covers its senses.

NOT A HERO TO HIS FATHER
Michael o'Leary, sr, Thought That
His Son Might Have Done More
Than He Did.

No man is a hero to his own valet
That is proverbiaL Is any man a hero
to his own father? Maybe that de-
pends on circumstances. The British
hero Of the hour is the Irishman, Mi
chael OLeary, who won the Victoria
cross by bayoneting eight Germans
A. many articles and poems have been
written about his deed as were writ
ten in the United States at the time Of
the destruction of the Maine about the
man who coolly reported to Captain
Sigsbee that the ship has been blown
up and is sinking" Now a recruiting
poster has made its appearance. Un-
der fanciful picture of O'Leary slay-
ing the eight Germans, is the admoni-
ton: Follow the example of Michael
O'Leary, V. c., and Join an Irish regi-
ment today"
But it appears that Daniel OLeary,
MichaePs father, is almost disap-
pointed in his son. According to a
correspondent the sire of the Victoria
cross hero was interviewed and asked
If he was surprised at his sons brav-
cry. He replied:
81 am surprised he didn't do more.
l often laid out twenty men myself
with a stick coming from Macroon
fair, and it is bad trial of Mick that
he could kill only eight, and he having
rife and bayonet."
Thus the rising generation stands
rebuked.

CBy F. T. BIoL1TTI.)

The best time for grating depends
somewhat on the soil and climate, but
usually the latest gratis do the best,
provided the scions are completely
dormant and otherwise in good con-
dition. If the buds of the scions have
started and the bark becomes loose
many will fail. In the sitter and
wetter soils, much greater care is
necessary in choosing the time for
grating. The soil should be in such
a condition that it will pulverize cas-
lily. Lumpy soil placed about the graft
will cause many failures.
More gratis fail from an excess Of
moisture than from drying out This
moisture may be already in the soil,
or due to rains after grating, or it
may simply be due to the sap which
flows out of the cut stump. The
amount of sap that will flow out Of
vine two or more inches in diameter is
very considerable and quite sufficient
in many cases to drown" the graft.
This may be avoided by cutting off the
vines one or two days before grating
and leaving them exposed to the air,
in order that the main flow of sap
may dry up. This is good practice in
all cases where the vines are over IL
inches in diameter
The first thing to do is to clear away
the earth from around the base of the
vine, making pit about two feet in
diameter, and two to three inches
deeper than the level at which the
grating is to be done. The earth
should be well cleaned OFF the stem
of the vine and the rough, dry bark
removed. (See Ain iIlustration.} The
vine is then ready for decapitation,
This is done by saving horizontally
in such a place that about two inches
of smooth, straight grain are left at
the top. (See S in Fig. A. If the
saving is done at or too near place
where the grain of the wood is
crooked or curly, great difficulty will
be found in making a good fit.
After leaving the decapitated vine
"a hours to bleed, it is ready for the
insertion of the scion. In making the
cleft, place should be chosen where
the bark is smooth and sound. The

Whv Men Eat More,

That men eat or per cent more
than women-not because they are
gluttons, but because they actually
require that much more nourishment
appears as a result of an investiga-
ton made in the nutrition laboratory
of the Carnegie Benedict and L. F
Eames, says the Literary Digest. tt
reason for the discrepancy seems
be that women have a smaller propol
tion of active tissue than men of the
same weight and more inactive mate
rial, such as fat. The investigation
disclosed that the average woman
generates only 1856 heat units in the
twenty-four hours, as against 1888
produced by the man, or about 2 per
cent more for the latter per pound of
body weight. When groups were COM
pared, after careful selection of indi-
viduals Of nearly the same height and
weight, the men were found to pro-
duce about IL per cent more heat
than women

War bV Post Card,

Romance and patriotism are graft
fed in northern Italy just now by
the circulation of postal card show
ing angels descending from heaven to
place the flag of Italy on the Cathe-
dral of Trieste, while a group of ber-
saglieri, Italy's popular and pictur-
esque soldiers, look on at the pro-
ceeding. The postal card originated in
Venice and has gained an immense
popularity.
There are no tourists in Venice and
the venders Of glass beads and pos
tai cards are having hard time This
card has been a godsend to these peo-
pie. Copies are sold as fast as they
can be produced.
All Italy is flooded with them and it
is said that the Austrian censors at
Trieste are fairly showed under by
the storm of cards that have descend
ed there. Naturally they are rigidly
suppressed in Trieste. They are cir
culated among the Italians there with
a gusto that is only intensified by the
secrecy necessary to the proceeding.
