Still another way to finish the bot

has been used, but several rows of finer

Fringed and picot edged box -pleat-

These double and box-pleated rutfles are

WATERED SECURITIES
BY Peter Radford.

Much has been said and more writ
ten about the evils of watered stock in
big business concerns and the farm
ers OF this nation believe that every
dollar written into the life of any
business organization, should be able
to say Il know that my Redeemer
liveth," but farming is the biggest
business on earth, and there is more
water in its financial transaction than
that OF any other industry. There Is
as much water in a farmers note
drawing eight or ten per cent interest
when other lines OF industry secure
money for four or five per cent per
annum, as there is in q business pay
ing a reasonable compensation upon
the face value OF securities repre-
senting an investment OF only fifty
cents on the dollar. The only diff
ference is, the water is in the interest
rate in one instance and In the secur-
tiles in the other.
The promoter ofttimes takes chances
and his success is contingent upon
the development Of the property in
volved but the usurer, as a rule, takes
no chances and his success cripples
the property involved. There may be
industries that cry louder but none
that suffer more severely from flnan.

The farmers OF America today are

at Ave per cent, represents s4,0OO,OOO,-

with chicken pest. Autopsy and
meteorological examination will
exclude poisoning and parasitic
infections.
Treatment and Prevention
the appearance of cholera in the
flock the remainder Of the healthy
birds should be immunized i'm
mediately, because as a general
rule the course of the disease is
very acute and delay means the
loss of the greater portion Of the
flock. Affected birds should be
given the usual weak solution of
potassium permanganate in the
drinking water. In the majority
of cases it would be advisable to
kill the sick birds rather than
treat them so that all efforts may
be devoted to preventing spread
of the disease. All droppings of
affected birds should be gathered
and burned. If the sick birds
are not killed they should be iso-
lated from the remaining healthy
portion of the flock. The chick
en- house, coops, feeding troughs
and pens should be thoroughly
disinfected with a five per cent.
liquor cresolis compound solution.
In addition, the floor of the chick
en- houses should be sprinkled
with lime and the side walls and
roosts should be white-washed.
Great care should be exercised in
purchasing birds, to avoid intro
ducing the disease.
If cholera or any other chicken
disease occurs on any farm in the
State, application to the Expert
ment Station for assistance should
be made if the owner feels that
he is not able to combat the dis
ease successfully. Vaccines for
the prevention of chicken cholera
will be experimentally applied,
without charge, to check the dis
ease.

Fowl Cholera In Kentucky.

Of all our chicken ailments,
cholera is to be most dreaded.
The popular idea is to relegate
chicken cholera as it occurs under
farm conditions to profit and loss,
without any effort to curtail the
loss. Perhaps this is due to a
lack of knowledge on this speci-
fic subject. If chicken raisers
do not feel competent to make a
diagnosis and prescribe a specific
treatment, assistance can be OBJ
tanned free on application to the
Director of the Experiment
Staten.
1t requires training to make a
proper diagnosis from the symp-
toms evidenced in Sick chickens
and in many instances this can
not be accomplished without
meteorological examination.
The history of the sick flock is Of
great Importance. Animals that
die without apparent cause should
be dissected IN order to note what
if any changes from the norma
exist. AS a general rule sicl
chickens do not show specific
symptoms in the different diseas
es, but common observation Of
loss of appetite, ruffled plumage
nasal discharge, diarrhea, a de
pressed condition, ct cetera, is in
dicative of cholera.
In cholera the birds become
affected and die in many instan
, ces in from two to twenty-fou
''ours. There is a slower typ,
'hicken cholera in which tn
