CROP-BOUND BIRDS.

Greyhound birds are not an in
frequent occurrence and should be
gwen attention as soon as discovered.
This condition may be brought about
through the eating of long pieces of
grass, feathers, strings or other indi-
gestible articles which clog the crop
and prevent the proper passage of
food to the gizzard.
Give teaspoonful of sweet oil and
then gently manipulate the crop with
the hand in an effort to clear the
passage and allow the food to pass on
down. If this fails it is sometimes
practical to suspend the fowl by the
legs and work the contents of the
crop back into the mouth. When this
Is done give no food except water for
about SO hours and then feed on
bread softened with milk for a day
or two.
1t is sometimes necessary to resort
to surgery in order to empty the
crop. Cut slit about an inch long
near the top of the crop and remove
the distractions with the finger,
wash the interior with a weak solu-
ton of carbolic acid (about 1 per
cent? and sew up the cuts with silk
thread. The wound will heal rapidly.
Give no food except water for a day
or two and then soft bread for few
days.

SEE PERIL IN BILL

The proposed government ship purchase
law, now before Congress, has two sides
to it. Advocates of each are strenuous in
support Of their view
That the purchase of these ships will be
big boom to United States trade, is con-
tended by the advocates Of the measure,
among these being President Wilson.
Those opposed declare such purchases
would be hostile act, and there would be
grave danger of involving the United
States in the European war
Great Britain is now preparing to seize
the Dacia, one Of the German interned
vessels, purchased by Edward Breitung Of
Michigan
An individual who contravenes regula-
tlons pertaining to naval war suffers mere
ly the consequences of capture and con-
fiscation of his property. The participa-
tion of the government, however, in such
transaction, (according to the opposi-
tom, would be not only a violation Of
neutrality but an act Of hostility. The
principle Of the United States entering
the shipping business with the ultimate
suffocation of private shipping as the re-
suit, is decried, likewise.

TO KILL OR NOT TO KILL
Fight over Best Way to Stamp out
Epidemic Wakes Hot

The dissatisfaction of cattle owners re-
garding the drastic measures employed by
the authorities in the handling of the foot
and mouth disease, has resulted in injunc-
tions restraining the killing of condemned
herds in several instances the past week,
and the fight is being waged in the courts,
the Illinois legislature, and at Washing
ton.
Illinois, it is declared, is facing the pos
sibility Of strict, statewide federal quar-
antine because of the plague, unless dras-
tic action to stamp out the disease is taken
within the next few days by state officials.
Governor Dunno has sent a message to the
State legislature urging summary action,
and has also asked the assistance Of Presi-
dent Wilson in a proposal that the Bureau
Of Animal Industry assume responsibility
in the battle against the plague, and that
Congress foot the entire bill
Senator Sherman, on the other hand,
stands with the disgruntled owners of
herds, and has carried the fight into the
Senate, introducing resolution directing
the Senate Committee on Agriculture to
investigate and report to the Senate i'm
mediately it's finding with respect to the
necessity for killing all cattle so afflicted.
He declares that if the wholesale slaughter
of cattle is not stopped, the stock breeding
and dairy industries in this country will
be destroyed

A great American steel company is said
to be under contract to deliver to the same
government nine hundred steel howitzers
within eighteen months.
One American company has contracted
for, and is now engaged in manufacture
ing, two hundred thousand rifles, with
two hundred million cartridges, for an
other Of the powers at war.
Another firm will supply two hundred
thousand rifles Of 1903 caliber, with two
hundred million cartridges, and half
million 20 rifles with accompanying am
munition.
From single American firm seven mill
ion pounds Of powder are to go to one
belligerent power, and four million to an
other
It is also reported that four million
aerial arrows have been ordered in Amer
lea by one Of the fighting nations.
These it is shown, are but items in a
long list
President Wilson has urged business
men Of the country to refuse to supply the
nations at war with the material to kill
each other.
A resolution is now before Congress to
prevent these shipments to Europe's arm
les. Congress early advised against loans
to belligerents, disregarding which, syn
dicate Of bankers, Of which J. P. Morgan
is head, has, within few days, completed
negotiations for big loan to Russia, the
major part of which is to be used in the
purchase of war material in this country
