Speaking of selling horses for the European war, one stockman
made the remark: Il was offered twice what that big bay horse is
worth the other day by a horse buyer, but 1 tell you now that it will
be a long cold day before they get to shoot any of my horses" Well
spoken, we thought, and how forcibly it brought home the humane
side of the mar who owned that "bay horse" Would that there were
more of him that valued horse life and flesh. Too, Uncle Sam, grasp
ing greedily for foreign trade has bartered the very life of this nation,
were we brought into the present conflict without the horses that
would be SO badly needed.

A little girl % months old, in a baby cab pushed by her father
and mother, out for a walk, was hit by a speed fend on the streets of
Denver Saturday. The child died within a few hours from a frac-
tured skull and internal injury. The driver of the car was running
his machine 40 miles an hour, and after striking the child he stopped
his machine, jumped out and skipped.
Such is the history of lax enforcement of law. We do not often
believe in Judge Lynch, but we would like to help hang the lowlived
dog in human clothes who murdered that child and then fed, and
here is a wish that he is caught and stretched.

he got one hit off Mayer.
In the third game Lewis stood out
like a house af1re. He got three hits
off Alexander and won the ball game

two-sacker in the sixth. In the
fifth, with Gamer on first and the

fly poled a homer into the bleachers.
In addition to clubbing the ball like
fiend, Lewis was a whale in the out
field, going back and coming in and
robbing Cravath and other Phils of

would have been good for extra bases.

RESULT is MUCH THE SAME
Slight Difference Between the Meth
DDS of the Ancient and the
Modern Turtles.

A wicked turtle had for years been
troublesome to the inhabitants of the
marsh in which he dweit. He bit the
legs off frogs, ate fish with relish,
and occasionally grabbed hold of a
snake and held on until it Numbered.
Finally the animals held court
and tried the turtle on the charge of
murder. The turtle was there, with
his harveyized shell in perfect repair
and covered with moss an inch thick.
He apparently enjoyed the delibera-
tons of the judicial body, and was
observed to smile at various times.
The judgment of the court was that
the turtle should be hanged by the
neck until he was dead. When this
decision was announced there was
great cheering, and the court officers
prepared to put the sentence into exc
cution at once. They prepared a
moose and approached the turtle.
That astute tortoise drew his head
back inside his shell and chuckled
merrily at the inability of the execu-
TONERS to carry out the sentence Of
the court.
Moral-In these days turtles bride
grand juries or employ good attor-
neys.

DON'T USE CAYENNE PEPPER
Liver Disease and Kindred Troubles
Are General Result of Use of
This Strong Spice.

The writer is strongly opposed to
the use of cayenne pepper. He knows
from past experience that liver dis
ease and kindred troubles are the
general result when this strong spice
is used, but if that condiment is placed
in a preparation of spices there no
doubt is a medicinal virtue in it.
Condition powder if rightly made is
composed of such ingredients as work
on the blood which in turn purifies
the system and nips in the bud any
disease germs that may be starting.
says writer in Texas Stockman.
Furthermore a reliable powder will
strengthen the organs which must
make egg production more easy and
natural. Of course there must be a
judicious use of all stimulating prep.
arations-just enough to gain the
point desired.
1t is not in the use, but the abuse,
that condition powder or any stimu-
liant like corn, buckwheat or barley
gets that makes it dangerous to fowl
life.

ATTENTION NEEDED
BY A SHEEP FLOCK
Keep FIeeces Clean and Free
From Burs-FurniSh Plenty
of Good, Fresh Water.

If it is worth while keeping few
sheep, it is worth while keeping good
ones.
Remove any members that may be
ailing to a place where they can be
we'll cared for.
Don't let the ram run down during
the breeding season, and give him
good care afterwards. -
Sheep require about the same pas
turage acreage weight for weight, as
do cattle; sheep thrive on a shorter
bite.
Keep the sleeps fleece clean and
free from burs, if you wish to get the
top price of the market for your wool.
The age at which ram ceases to
be useful depends largely upon his
inherent vigor, and the amount Of
service he has to do.
Grain never gives such large re-
turns as when it Is fed to young
lambs.
While it is advisable to see the
sheep often while they are on pasture,
still it is not necessary to stay with
them all the time; and good results
may be obtained with plenty of good
water, salt and feed, and a weekly
visit, if the dogs do not trouble them.
If, however, sheep-killing dogs are
around, be on your guard with good
shotgun
A pen or creep should be so covered
as to protect the grain from rains,
and should have a trough in it, in
which the grain should be kept all
the time.
The lambs will grow and thrive
wonderfully, and when weaning-time
comes, they may be taken away from
the ewes without any setback at all.

There is nothing more profitable
to the average farmer than the raising
of few good draft horses" says DR..
c. W. McCampbell, secretary of the
state live stock registry board, pro
vided he has plenty of pasture and ac-
cess to good stallion"
If a good stallion is not standing
for service in a community, the man
who has at least five or six good farm
mares can afford to own his own stall
lion and use him as a work horse. A
coming two-year-old stallion can be
bought for approximately $500 and
taken in hand at this age, he makes an
excellent work horse.
The raising of draft horses is differ
ent from that of any other live stock
on the farm. Important factors are
good food and attention. Good breed
ing gives the possibilities, but good
feeding is necessary to bring this out
to it's fullest extent.
1t is better for the man of limited
means, believes Doctor McCampbell,
to raise horses only as by-product,
because the exclusive raising of draft
horses for market requires consider
able capital. The returns at first are
SLOW for draft horses must be six
years old before they are ready for
market. The man who has other cash
crops to meet his expenses can afford
to wait for the returns from his young
draft horses.

EASIER TO PREVENT
THAN TO CURE R0UP
Most Satisfactory Method En-
pIoyed by Expert Poultrymen
of Treating Disease.
By ]. G. EALPIN, Wisconsin Expert
ment Station)

(By ]. G. HALPIN, Wisconsin Expert
ment Station.)
An ounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure.
It's the old, old rule and it works as
we'll with poultry as with anything
else.
Prevention, expert poultrymen tell
us, is the most satisfactory method Of
treating roup
This annoying and wasteful disease
can be prevented by keeping the poul-
try house dry, well ventilated and
clean; by forcing the fowls to exercise
on cold wet days in a deep litter Of
dry straw; by breeding from strong
vigorous birds; by feeding clean and
wholesome feeds and by taking every
precaution to keep the disease from
the farm and flock.
If any of the birds do develop roup
or extremely bad colds, they should
be removed from the flock and the
houses disinfected with coal-tar dis
infectant or per cent solution Of
carbolic acid. Unless the birds are
valuable it is advisable to kill and
bury all sick fowls With all birds
that are worth the time necessary to
give them individual treatment, the
following method will prove success
full.
Thoroughly clean the nostril and
eye of all the cheesy material that
has collected. Inject into the nostril
with syringe saturated solution of
permanganate of potash and dust bo-
ric acid into the eye and nostril. This
treatment must be followed several
times day until decided improve
ment is noticed when the permanga-
nate of potash can be omitted. The
horic acid should be continued until
the nostrils are dry and all enlarge
ment Of the eye has disappeared. 1t
is not advisable for most people to
attempt to remove the mass that col
lects beneath the eye by an operation
and If taken in time the other treat
ment will prove effective.
The first symptom of roup is a wa
terry discharge from the eye and a
thin, yellow discharge from the nos
tril. The eye then becomes enlarged
due to this material filling up the
space around the eye.
When the first symptoms of cold
appear, begin using permanganate of
potash in the drinking water. Make
up stock solution of the crystals and
then pour enough of this in the drink
ing water every day to give 1t a vio-
let or wine color.

POULTRY
FATS
NEGLECT OF FARM POULTRY
Most Flocks Are Too Small and Are
Not Given Attention and Care
They Deserve.

We believe that we are justified in
saying that the average farmer does
not give enough attention to the
poultry side of farming. Experiments
that have been conducted show that
the farmers flock may be made
profitable part of his livestock bust
ness. Most focks are too small and
do not receive the attention, study
and care they should, says Utah Farm
er. No live stock pays bigger divi-
dends when put on commercial foot
ing and properly managed. 1t costs
little more to care for large flock
than for few hens.
Keep flock for business reasons
and not merely from force of habit,
Mongrels or scrubs are not the kind
to have. Get some pure-bred chickens
of the kind you'1ike. We would laugh
at the livestock man who depended
upon scrubs to build up his livestock
business. Pure-bred stock will nearly
always arouse the enthusiasm of Its
owner and his family.
Other essentials to profitable farm
poultry are houses, equipment for
Matching and rearing, care, feeding,
marketing, etc. The humble hen pro-
duces millions each year-the ques-
ton we ask is, are your getting your
share?
There is money in poultry-if you
do not have the time, turn this part
of your farm work over to the boys
or girls.
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1915-05-21

binary farm if bred to a good stallion
should produce several good colts
every year, besides doing the ordinary
farm work. To secure the best results
the brood mare that does the farm
work must be given the best of care
and attention.
The use of silage as a horse feed
still is a debated question. Some
horsemen have used it successfully
and others have had disastrous results,
All silage fed to horses should be
sweet and fresh. Moldy or spoiled
silage also is an unsafe feed for
horses because of the danger of caus.
ing collie. The silage should be made
of fairly mature crops, and it should
be stored in the silo properly.
If you don't speak to the horse ev-
cry time you pass behind his heels,
you may wake up some morning with
skinned head or a broken bone.
When horse hears a racket behind
him, sometimes he doesn't wait to see
what it is, but whacks away at it with
both feet.
Be careful with the colt you are
breaking this spring Don't try to
do it all in one day; if you do you
may not only break him to work. but
you may break his heart as well. Get
him used to pulling gradually. 1t isn't
reasonable to expect colt to go out
in the field hitched to a disk or plow
and do as much as the old seasoned
horse.

Couldn't Part.

Louis Halle was a colonel on Gov.
ernor Yates staff, and in that capacity
accompanied him to Washington to be
a part of an inaugural parade. All the
colonies had uniforms a-plenty, but il
was decided to rely upon the Wash
ington supply of horses instead of TAX
ing the mounts along.
The governor sat on his horse await
ing the parade formation, and from
time to time an orderly would gallon
up with an official communication. Or
each occasion Colonel Halle was by
his side. At last the governor OBJ
served:
Colonel Halle, / see no necessity
for your sticking to this orderly II

There isn't any," admitted Halle
but, you see, our horses are a life

MEAT RATION FOR CHICKENS
West Virginia Experiment Station
Makes Interesting Test-Eggs
Are Much Larger.

The effect Of meat rations was test
ed at the West Virginia Experiment
Station, where one pen of fowls re.
ceived a ration largely of corn and
other starchy grains, while another
pen was fed partly on meat and
fresh bones.
The meat-fed fowls laid 1855 eggs,
while the granted birds laid 3,431,
or less than one-half as many as those
receiving the heterogeneous ration.
The eggs from the meat-fed fowls
were larger, much firmer, rather bet
ter, and produced far more vigorous
chickens than those of the others.
Both lots Of fowls remained In q
healthy, vigorous condition.
