infected. The hog is particularly liable

man food, and persons who allow
dogs to lick their hands and face also
run the risk OF getting the eggs Of the
tapeworm in their systems.
Prevention on the farm consists in
so restraining the dog that he cannot
get at carrion or raw viscera. Viscera
should be boiled before being fed to
dogs and should never be thrown on
the fields. II not cooked and fed. Wis
cera and carcasses should be burned,
buried with lime, or SO disposed of as
not to be accessible to dogs. Proper
feeding of the dog is essential and the
owner who does not feed dog prop
erly has no right to keep one.
The parasite which causes gid in
sheep somewhat resembles the hyda'
It'd worm. A dog allowed to eat the
brain of a giddy sheep may swallow
this parasite and later distribute the
the pasture. Sheep while grazing
swallow the eggs with the grass which
they eat. In the case Of sheep dogs
1t is important to administer vermi-
fuges often enough to keep them free
of these worms. In the case of sheep
measles, the bladder worm in the
meat, typical of this disease, Is swal-
lowed by the dog and again the tape
worm eggs are passed by the dog to
grass or water and there are eaten
by sheep.
or the external parasites which
dogs may carry to animals, fieas and
the various kinds of ticks are both
troublesome and dangerous. The
remedy is clear. The owner must
keep his dog clean, not merely for the
comfort and happiness of the dog, but
to prevent it from becoming a carrier
of disagreeable and dangerous vermin.
These reasonable measures, impor-
tant to the stock on the farm, have q

LAZY ANCESTORS OF
OUR MODERN FOWLS
Industrious Hen Of Today Lays
800 Eggs in Year, While
Jungle Bird Laid Twelve.

(By c. 8. ANDERSON, Colorado.)
The jungle fowl, from which all our
modern breeds of chickens have orig
mated, laid from twelve to fifteen
eggs a year when In its wild and nat
ural state. With years of selection,
we have succeeded in developing from
this low-producing fowl type of bird
the chief function of which is egg pro-
duction. Our present-day Leghorns,
and carefully selected fowls IF several
other breeds, lay close to 300 eggs an
nually, and in the course Of lifetime
more than a thousand.
An average hen of the ega' type
breeds will lay in a years time five
times her body weight in eggs. TAX
ing the standard weight of eggs rs "a
ounces per dozen, this means an egg
every three days during the year. To
accomplish this the hen must consu ne
nearly thirty times her body weight In
feed.
The hen also has a market value
when she is no longer an egg producer.
Comparing the total marketable prod
ucts returned for 100 pounds of digest
ible matter consumed, the hen ranks
second only to the COW among all our
common farm animals

tFrom Weekly Letter, United States De-
partment of Agriculture)
The dog In the country is useful
and pleasant adjunct to the farm if he
Is properly controlled and cared for,
but when neglected may readily be-
come a carrier of disease to stock, in
addition to gaining opportunity to kill
sheep and destroy gardens and other
property. Dog ordinances, as a gen.
eral rule, have been intended chiefly to
curb the dogs power of doing harm by
attacking, biting, killing or running
sheep or stock. The part that he
plays as a carrier of diseases to ami
mails only recently has been recog-
nized, according to the biologists of
the United States department of agri-
culture, who believe that when this is
better understood rural ordinances and
laws which lessen this danger will
gain the support of the community.
OF the diseases carried to stock by
dogs, the foot-and-mouth disease is
probably of the greatest interest at
this time. In this case the dog acts
as a mechanical carrier Of infection.
The dog which runs across an infect
ed farm easily may carry In the dirt
on his feet the virus of this most con-
tagious of animal diseases to other
farms and thus spread the disease
to the neighboring herds. In infected
localities it is absolutely essential,
therefore, to keep all dogs chained
81 Ill oAf ho
except on leash.
There are, however, many other
maladies in the spread OF which the
dog takes an active part. In Bulletin
$50 of the department, "The log as
a Carrier of Parasites and Disease" it
Is pointed out that rabies, hydatid,
ringworm, favus, double-pored tape
worm, roundworm and tongue worm
are often conveyed to human beings in
this way. It occasionally happens also
that the dog helps fleas and ticks in
transmitting bubonic plague or the
deadly spotted gever.
Hydatid disease Is caused by the
presence in the liver, kidneys, brain,
lungs and other organs Of a bladder
worm or larval tapeworm. Bladder
worms are often as large as an orange
and may be larger. A dog which is
allowed to feed on carrion or the raw
viscera of slaughtered animals may eat
all or part of a bladder worm contain
ing numerous tapeworm heads. These
tapeworm heads develop into small
segmented tapeworms In the intestines
of the dog. The tapeworms in turn
develop eggs which are passed out IN
the excrement Of the dog. They are
spread broadcast on grass and IN

HAVE COMFORTABLE
STALLS FOR HORSES
It Often Happens That Places
Where Animals Are Kept Are
Entirely Too Narrow.

A horse cannot talk and tell hio

continues the effect will show in his

the horses feet wear holes which are

One of the greatest evils is having
a stall too narrow. 1t may not have
