Colts Feet In Summer.

Aside from feeding. probably the
most important consideration in devel-
oping growing horses is the care of the
feet, says DIR. c. w. McCampbel of the
Kansas Agricultural college. Many of
the poor feet seen in horses are the re-
suit OF neglect of the feet while these
horses were young. The toes should
not be allowed to grow abnormally
long and i'll shaped, as serious trouble
may result from cracking or breaking
Of the hoof. Neither should the heels
be allowed to become high, narrow. or
rolled. If these i'll shapes are not cor
rected the feet, and, to some extent. the
legs, respond to these influences. and
the horse natures with poorly shaped
feet and often poorly set legs. Beware
Of thrush and kindred troubles. If the
stables are kept clean and sanitary
there will be very little trouble from
this source. Careful attention to these
details will help greatly in developin.

Acknowledgement Topics and Events

Importers at the meeting was one Of
Indignation that Americans cannot
gain possession ever of the goods con-
tracted for in Germany prior to the
declaration of the British blockade. It
is represented that $3O,OOO,OOO to $780,
100000 of imports bought before the
blockade are held up in Rotterdam
awaiting shipment. Contracts we're
made f. o. b. at German and Austrian
factories, and for a considerable pro-
portion of these wares cash is said to
have been paid or payment legally OBJ
l1gated. Importers in turn have sold
part OF these wares to their American
customers, who hold them liable for
nondeliveries.
The German dye situation is not af-
fected by the importers protest since
Germany will not sell dyes for export
unless guaranteed return cargoes of
cotton. The principal lines affected by
the holdup at Rotterdam are hosiery,
gloves, underwear, velvets and other
dry goods, glassware, toys and novel
ties.

England Needs 100000 600 600

London, Aug. 29.-''In this national
crisis expenditures, both public and
private, should be rigidly curtailed,
and at the same time new taxation
should forthwith be imposed upon all
classes of the people in order that
when the war shall be brought to a
triumphant conclusion the nation NAV
enter the period of restoration with it's
financial power impaired to the least
possible extent
The foregoing resolution was adopt
ell at a meeting of the leading bankers
and tinanciers of London.
Harold Cox. we'll known as a polit-
ical economist, addressed the meeting.
He said that the loan would hardly
carry the country over until Christmas
and that personally he did not think
the war would end without England
having to borrow $4,000, 600, 600. Al
together the interest on this, Mr.. Cox
said, would be $3.50, 1000, which,
with the sinking fund, would be in
creased to $500. OOO, 900, and another
500. 900, 900 would have to be added
for the first two years after the war
for pensions. The new taxes imposed
last November, Mr.. Cox added, pro-
duced 1915, 100000, so that many more
new taxes would have to be imposed.

Hog Cholera DIAGNOSIS.

The importance of a correct diagno-
Sis where hog cholera is suspected cam
not be overestimated. says DR.. II, Pres
ton Hoskins Of the Minnesota experi-
ment station. Hog cholera serum adj
ministered to a herd thought to be in
fected with cholera, but in reality suf-
ferlng from some other disease, usual
ly means time and effort wasted and.
If the treated hogs keep on dying, dis
trust of the serum treatment. Except
in very unusual cases either a positive
or negative diagnosis of cholera can
be made if there is opportunity for a
post mortem examination. In doubt
full cases a post mortem is always
proper.
Just as soon as it is noticed that a
hog is sick it should be separated from
the herd and kept isolated until the
exact nature Of the trouble can be de-
termined.
Diseases which are most frequently
mistaken for hog cholera are intestinal
worms, various digestive disturbances,
lung worms, inflammation of the bow
els and ne~crObacillosis. The last named
disease is caused by the same germ
that is responsible for sore mouth and
bull nose of pigs.

submarines of 5000 miles cruising
radius are now a reality" he said in a
recent interview. Half Of that radius
is enough to carry them across the At
lantic. New methods of conserving
the air supply and food supply mean
that passengers will be safer in the
undersea boats than in liners which
are subject to the fate that overlook
the Lusitania.
"Of course these freight carrying
submarines would not be as speedy.
Neither would they travel all the dis
lance under water. But whenever in
danger, whenever within the line of an
enemy submarine Gordon, they would
take the undersea route.

one else in submarine invention and

Regularity in feeding fattening hogs

$4,000 Men In Krupp's Works..

Essen, Aug. 3O.-Krupp's is more
than the greatest wal factory. 1t is
the mightiest single Industrial organiza-
ton that has ever existed. Never in
any industrial center has there been
anything like the %stupendous concen-
trated activity that now reigns in Es-

grown up ound the great works, SAYS
Reynolds Weekly of London. Essen is

Turness rolled into one, and more.
Before the war the company en-
ployed more than 10000 men. About
10000 We're engaged in the gigantic
steel works at Essen, where the AZ
centlmeter monsters come from, and
where daily there streams forth a tre-
mendous volume of guns and munitions
for Germany's armies. Ten thousand
men We're digging for coal in their
mines in Germany. Fifteen thousand
toiled at their rolling mills at Amen
and Grusen and the blast furnaces of
Rheinhausen, Duisburg, Neuwied and
Fingers. An army Of 1000 was engaged
in their s%hipbuilding yard at Kiel. and
5000 miners dug ore in Spain.
Day and night in Essen work goes
on without ccasing. In the great works
spread over 1900 acres, 235 of them
under roof, at least $4,000 men toll in
shifts of eight hours each. Some six
ty factories make up the organization.

out. Thirty miles Of narrow lines are
required as auxiliary for the shops.

CELERY FOR FALL AND WINTER
The Soil Should Be Made the Richest

~ WV Ssu0 CHe
Spot In the Garden.
Make the soil for your celery patch
the richest spot in the garden, say the
Country Gentleman. The more ranid
and luxuriant the growth the better
will be the quality and the more GER
tain the crop will be to come through
on time. Here is a chance to use ND
all the seasons l%eftovers in the way of
plant foods. There are probably odds
and ends of fertilizers, the compost
heap that has accumulated during the
spring and summer the chicken ma
nure and some ashes. In addition to
this general hash of plant foods give
a good dressing of high grade fertilizer
for the last course and rake it thor
oughly into the soil.
Do not be afraid of getting the soil
too rich. Any of these deposits in the
soil bank that the celery does not draw
upon for use will be available for early
spring crops of green onions, lettuce
and cabbage.
Equally important are good. sturdy.
we'll developed plants that have al
ready begun to get their shape, are
easy to plant and are ready to grow
right on. Size at the base of the stalks
rather than height should be the basis
upon which to judge plants. \ spin
ding plant will waste a good deal of
time in r%eadiusting itself to a better
form. if it V e does so.
If You have your w plants growing
in a fiat or in a frame cut the tops
back severely a week or so before
planting. 1t is we'll also to keep them
rather on the dry side until Just a day
or two before planting. This stimu-
lates the growth of the feeding root
hairs which take up the plant food
solutions from the soil. and as many of
these roots are destroyed in trans
planting even with care the more there
are available the soone the plants will
become established.
