The cause Of the enmitv hetween N

The cause Of the enmity between the
two brokers dates back 20 litigation
instituted by Boskowitz against Sulz-
bacher in 1909, in which Sulzbacher
was charged with bribing a witness In
q suit over an accounting Of the books
OF the firm OF Sulzbacher & Bosko-
witt, the latter being lgnatz Bosko-
witt, father-in-law OF the former.
Sulzbacher was acquitted Of the
charge.
Jesse Boskowitz, who is brother-in-
law Of Sulzbacher. has desk room in
the Offices of Post Brothers, at 80 Ex-
change Place. He became a member
Of the exchange on February Z, 1901.
SulZbacher is now the head OF the
brokerage firm OF Sulzbacher & Co, at
Ill Broadway. He has been member
OF the exchange since May 26, 1898.
Il is expected that the governing
committee OF the exchange will impose
severe penalty on both brokers for
their infringement VI the Jules.

Sewage Disposal In Sheffield.

Like other large industrial towns.
Sheffield, England. has had a difficult
problem to solve in regard to sewage
disposal. In 1886, when the city had
a population of 3O4, 720. the sewage
was drained into the nearest water
ways. In that same year. however.
the first Of the sewage disposal
was planned and carried out.
The method of treatment at that time
was the common one of precipitation
in tanks by lime treatment. This
proved unsatisfactory. however. and
after careful study the system of treat
ing the sewage in settlement tanks.
followed by single contact bed treat
ment, was adopted and was found to
be the most simple and economical
method. The corporation still has in
progress the enormous scheme which
it began in 1912 and which consists of
sixty contact beds, each half an acre
in area; sixteen storm beds of the
same size, settling tanks and the alter
alton Of sewers, at a cost Of S 1,251 1886.
which will be capable of dealing with
a maximum flow Of G4,500.000 gallons
a day. 1t is said that when completed
these works will not be exeelled by
any in Great Britain for economy in
construction and efficiency In design.

Scours In Calves.

If one is unfortunate enough to have
calves with the scours the writer has
always found either blood -four or
burned -four was effective in correct.
spoonful of either Of these given when
the calf is fed for a day or two will
prove successful. The latter is made
By placing ordinary wheat flour in a
skillet and stirring it W a fire until
the contents become n uniform brown.
The excuse offered by many that they
have no time to fool around with their
calves is the principal reason why the
death rate Is so high. The calf is the
foundation of the herd, and upon its
care depends the future profit or loss.

AERIAL TRAIL BREAKING.
Amazing Speed and Endurance of the
Wild Swan In Flight.

WV
Wild Swan In Flight.
1t is impossible for one who has seer
only the common mute swans floating
about in the artificial lakes of city
parks to imagine the grandeur of Il
flock of the great whistlers in their
wild state. In Wild Life and the
Camera" MIR. \. X. Dugmore says the
sight is one Of the most impressive in
nature. As the huge birds rise into the
air it seems as if an aerial regatta
were being sailed overhead. the swans.
each with Il wing spread of six or sew
en- feet. moving like yachts under full
sail.
Once the swans are fairly under way
their speed is amazing. nearly a hun
dred miles an hour. and that. too. with
lo apparent effort. for the slow wing
motion is very decciving. Their en-
DURANGO is rs surprising us their speed.
for they are said to travel IL thousand
miles without alighting.
The tlocks are usually led by an old
and experienced swan, and it is said
that rs IL becomes tired of leading,
or it might be called aerial trail break
ing, his place is taken by another
whose strength is equal to the task.
and so they continue until they reach
their destination. the southern feeding
grounds of the winter or the northern
breeding places Of the summer. Occa-
sionally they stop to rest in the region
OF the great lakes. Not many years
ago, while on their way north, Il large
and more than Il hundred were by
some extraordinary miSchance carried
over the falls and killed in the surg
ing waters.
Whether the swans prepare in any
special way for their southwark jour
ney is not known. but before starting
north they indulge in the curious habit
known as "ballasting"-that is to sag.
they eat great quantities of sand. fer
what purpose no one knows.
In the faraway Arctic ocean is their
breeding place. and it is believed that
they mate for life. As with so many
of the water birds. the swans protect
tneif eggs with Il covering OF down
scratched from their own breasts, so
that when the birds leave the nest the
two to six large, ycllOwish eggs are
hidden from the eyes Of possible
thieves and protected against any sud
den changes of temperature.
1t is many years before the swans
are clothed in the feathers of immacu-
late whiteness that make them such
conspicuous objects Of beauty. Not,
indeed. until the fifth year does all
trace OF gray disappear. Their first
feathers are entirely gray. Gradually
they tighten, becoming notified with
white. the neck and head remaining
gray until after the body is completely
white.
