Crows.

When M. G. Kerlin, near Gra-
cey, was in town last Saturday,
he entered his subscription date
in the '16 class and told some
good stories about crows. Here
futed the western mans story
that crows dig about young corn
plants for the cut worms, and
leave the corn untouched. Mr..
Kerlin thinks that they must be
a different breed of crows from
his, since his crows dig for the
corn and leave the cut worms,
and that an examination of crow
stomachs proved his assertion.
We have read much about the
crows during recent years, and
have come to the conclusion that
they are pretty smart birds, and
that they are the politicians of
the Pennsylvania bird kingdom.
Like their human brethren in
that business, they make a good
living off the public without the
expenditure of much hard labor.
and at the same time, return to
the public just enough good to
cloud public opinion as to wheth-
er their tribe should be extermi-
mated.
1t is well known that crows de-
stroy all the bird eggs, and all
young birds, and little chickens
they find, and that they pull up
corn, eat cherries, etc, but dur
ing the balance of the year, they
undoubtedly eat many bugs, so
that like all birds, they do some
harm, and do some good; but
even our game commissioners are
of the opinion that they are harm
full enough to be placed outside
the law of protection and left to
fight for their existence.

AUTONOBILE ACCIDENT
Muddy Roads Responsible for Harry
Prices Touring Car Running
Over Enbanknent.

What might have resulted very
seriously, happened last Monday
between Robertsdale and Broad
top City, when Harry Price and
wife and little son, and Cynton
Keith and wife-all in Harry's
touring car on their way to the
latter place to attend Memorial
services.
The roads being very muddy
owing to recent rains, Harry took
the precaution of putting chains
on the front wheels as we'll as on
the rear ones. Just after having
passed over a bridge, one of the
chains in front became entangled
with the fender, and in a mo
ment the car was plunging over
an embankment. Mrs. Price and
Mrs. Keith who were riding on
the rear seat, were thrown over
the front seat, and the child was
thrown entirely over the wind
shield, but fortunately escaped
with but little injury. The child's
mother was less fortunate, and
received some spinal injury, while
Mrs. Keith suffered only from
the shock. Mrs. Price was taken
to the home of DR.. McGarrah,
where she received medical at
tention and was taken to her
home later in the day.
MIR. Price is a careful driver
and is in no way responsible for
the unfortunate occurrence.

To Preserve eggs.

Many preparations are given
for the preservation of eggs. One
of them is the use of a liquid com
monty known as Water Glass, I"
that may be procured at drug
stores with directions for use.
Another receipt that we can
vouch for from having used it
successfully for many years is as
follows:
Slack a pint of lime in water,
letting it stand for a day or two
until cold. Use the thick lime
that settles to the bottom to mix
with three gallons of water in
which a half pint of coarse salt
has been dissolved. Gather eggs
that you are sure are perfectly
fresh. Avoid all that are the
least bit cracked, and all that
have very thin shells. Place the
eggs carefully in crooks, being
very careful not to crack any Of
the eggs. Pour the mixture very
gently down along the inside of
the vessel until the eggs are well
covered. Set in cool cellar
but not where they will freeze.
1t is best first to set the crock
where it is to remain, before
pouring, and do rot disturb, nor
jar the crooks until eggs are
wanted for use. If these direc-
tions are followed, eggs will keep
in this manner for a year, and be
as good and wholesome as the
day packed.

NUMBER SO
GAINING WEIGHT vs.. LOSING WEIGHT
Little Talks on Health and Hygiene by
Samuel G. Dixon, M. D., IL. D.,
Commissioner Of Health.

If the majority of people were
as much distressed about the
sudden reduction in their weight
as they are over an addition of
few pounds avoirdupois, the hu-
man race would be far better off.
Vanity unfortunately does not
lead the average individual to
look upon slenderness of figure as
Objectionable. If it did thousands
of cases of tuberculosis might be
discovered in their incipiency.
One of the early symptoms of
tuberculosis is a loss of weight.
Any decided decrease should be
watched with suspicion. 1t often
means that the general bodily
functions are not all that they
should be. 1t is certain under
any circumstances to demonstrate
that ones physical resistance is
being lowered and this in itself
opens the way to unusual suscept-
ibility to disease.
If this loss in weight is accom-
panied by failure of the appetite,
night sweats, or a persistent
cough or cold, physician should
be consulted and nourishing food,
plenty of rest, long hours of sleep
in the fresh air and such other
measures as he may advise should
be resorted to in the effort to
build up the body.
An excess of weight, particu-
larly when it means an increase
of girth, is a danger sign. How
ever, while people will wear rub
Der jackets, diet and resort to
violent exercise to reduce, it is
vanity that is responsible in the
majority of cases. They will me-
glect themselves for months when
decreasing weight should warn
them as surely as the falling ba-
rometer denotes coming storm,
that their physical well being is
in jeopardy.

More Cattle Die.

In addition to the accounts Civ.
en- by the NEWS last week and
the week before, we learn that
George w. Wagner of Tod town
ship, lost two yearlings last week
From his account, the symptoms
were same as those of Others
mentioned. First, the cattle be-
gin to lose flesh, get stupid, and
about five days die. The only
symptom given by Mr.. Wagner
not mentioned by others is, that
his sick cattle sometime start off
at a brisk walk, 90 in a straight
line and if an obstacle bart the
way, they run against it or STUN
BILE over it, indicating that they
are either blind for the time be-
ing, or are dumb"
Mr.. Wagoner's cattle are not
in brushy pasture, as was the
case with cattle of previous re-
port. Instead, they are on ma
tural grass noadowland which
in other years proved to be fine
pasture, so that the theory that
his cattle were poisoned by oak
leaves will not apply. Naturally
as in land never cultivated, there
are a few bushes; but not more
than may be found along fences
in any field. His pasture is ad-
jacent to the barn, and the cattle
came daily for their ration of
grain, salt, &c.
Last week we asked a subscrib-
er who works in the Sideling Hill
Rays Hill, and Broad Top noun
tains where hundreds of cattle
Craze, if any disease had appear
ed, and he reported that nothing
of the kind was known there,
and that he had noted the fine
condition of the stock. He has a
farm and stock of his own, would
have heard of any unusual out
break of the disease. AS far as
we can learn, the new disease is
confined to the Big Cove, where
ten head have died.
Since putting the Wagner ac-
count of sick cattle in type, we
have heard of others; also how
one man cured his. Becoming
alarmed by reports of the spread
of the disease, he went to his
mountain pasture to see if any
might be sick-found one very
bad, brought it home, fed bran,
gave it something to loosen its
bowels, and it recovered. 1t
seems that constipation is the
first effect of whatever it is that
is causing the death of cattle
along the foot of Cove mountain
in Ayr and Tod townships. Try
helping them with mild physic
and nourishing feed.
