Take Care Of Your Colts.

Horse and mule colts suffer
more from heat and flies during
July and August of their first
year than at any other time,
according to the experience Of
the Missouri Agricultural Ex-
pertinent Station. During these
two months many plump, we'll
developed, smooth-haired young
sters become thin, pot-bellied,
Ilistless and begin to show star
ing coats. In this condition they
are likely to be weaned in Sep
TENDER and perhaps before they
have become thrifty again they
are put on a scant supply Of dry
winter feed. Such set backs cut
profits seriously.
Colts from work mares should
be kept in the barn or lots while
their mothers are in the field and
should not be turned in with
their mothers if the mares are
warm Immediately on their re-
turn from the field at noon or in
the evening. They should be
kept separate until the mothers
are thoroughly cooled.
The colts should be eating
grain and a little grass or hay
) by the first of July and if the!
have not yet learned to ca.
grain, a clean mixture of equa
parts of crushed oats, grounC
corn, and bran should be placed
in a trough where they can ge.
it at any time. The lots shoulC
have plenty of shade and if thu
colts are kept in the stable
the stalls should should be par

To Testify as a Witness in the
Case of A. Leo We'll, Pitts
burg Attorney.

CHICAGO, April 2S.-Guy Bid
dinger, formerly a detective in the
Chicago police department and re-
Gently a private operative, is free to
go to West Virginia as witness in
the case of A. Leo We'll, Pittsburp
attorney, who had been sued by the
state Of West Virginia. Governor
Dunno, of Illinois, Thursday decided
to withdraw extradition papers under
which Biddinger was to have beer
brought from New York to Chicago
to face charges Of participation in
Plots by which certain Chicago DO.
licemen profited through giving pro-
lection" to criminals.

for We'll as an investigator in case
in which the Pittsburg man was ac-
cused of bribery.
Biddinger is now in custody In
New York and is under indictment
in Chicago on flfty-one charges of al
legged grating.
