NEW STOCK DISEASE,

Contagious abortion is a practically
new disease which has broken out
among the cattle in this end of the
county recently, says the Brewster
Herald. County Agriculturalist Smith
was called into the Upper neighbour
hood the first of the week and there
found ten cases in that and the Dam
mel and Dunbar vicinity There seems
no way of combating this dangerous
disease only by isolation and disin-
lection of the stricken cows. A meeting
of the farmers in the neighborhood re-
suited in strenuous action on the part
of the stockmen to eradicate the dis
ease. This is comparatively a new
trouble for the stockmen and will re-
quire drastic action to eliminate it. If
there are any signs of this disease in
your herd you should see or write to
II. p. Smith, county agriculturalist
|Okanogan, at once.

probably consisting in the incentive they give
to the use OF the brush.
In brushing, the motion should be up and
down as we'll as across the teeth; the inner
and upper as we'll as the outer surfaces and the
gums should be brushed.
Clean teeth will not decay. If the first teeth
are allowed to decay the second will not be
sound The rudiments of both sets OF teeth
are formed in the jaw before birth. The first
teeth (twenty) are cut by thirty months; the
first permanent teeth are the six-year moiars
the second set is cut from six to twelve years
of age. The enamel of the teeth is formed
once for all during childhood. The substance
Of the teeth is mineral, chiefly lime. 1t will
therefore be appreciated that the child needs
abundance of mineral in order that he may
have sound tooth material. This he can get
only from mineral in his food or, before his

and once Danny saw him sitting on the top OF
a post cracking one.
One morning Shep decided to come along
with them. Shep was the big collie, whose
business it was to bring the cows home every
night. He usually preferred to go with
prandpa to the back pasture where there were
woodchuck holes to be dug out and one could
scare up an occasional rabbit.
But this morning he changed his mind and
went With Danny and Sam.
When they came to Tommys fence Danny
cot down as usual and laid his peanuts at the
side of the road Then he went back by the
wagon and waited to see if Tommy wouldn't
come out Shep was nowhere to be seen.
Danny was just going to climb back up the big
wheel of the wagon-a trick Sam had taught
him-when there was a rustlng among the
woodbine leaves, and out darted the little chip
munk, paused in the grass at the side Of the
road, and looked from side to side.
Stand right still, Master Danny" cautioned
Sam, from above.
SO Danny stood still. and Tommy jumped
out from the grass with flip of his tail
made for the peanuts, grabbed one, and was
running back. And then Shep. whom they had
forgotten jumped over the fence and caught
him.

love to scurry along and up and down under
the big leaves, with bright little eye on the
dusty road for possible danger from the people
that passed there. Sometimes the people would
have dog with them, and he would come
barking and nosing furiously while Tommy
scooted of as fast as his little feet could carry
him to safety. and then he would sit flirting his
tail and scolding FOX all ne was worth
Danny was a little city boy, spending few
weeks on grandpa's big farm, and he rode to
the creamery every morning with Sam to take
the milk. Sam was grandpa's hired man, and
he knew lots of wonderful things; where black
berries grew thickest and how to rig up fish
ing tackle and just where to find suckers He
knew all about chipmunks, too, and told Danny
about them when he first saw Tommy and
called out:
"Oh, Sam, see, there's mouse with long,
furry tail
Sam didn't laugh at Danny's mistakes, as
grandpa sometimes did.
So Danny used to watch for Tommy every
morning, and sometimes he brought him pea
