PINK EYE QUITE INFECTIOUS
Disease Travels Through Herd Of Cat
tie Rapidly, Apparently lrre-
spective Of Age.

CBy W.. p. sHULER, Department of
Veterinary Medicine Oklahoma A. and
N. College. Stillwater.)
The true cause Of pink eye in cattle
Is, unknown. Its infectiousness cannot
be doubted. 1t travels through herd
rapidly. apparently irrespective of the
age Of the animals. The disease runs
its course in eight or twelve days and
may result in a satisfactory recovery
or the animal may be partially or to-
tally blind in one or both eyes as a
result Of the attack. Apparently ami
mails do not become immune to this
disease. It is manifest by watery
appearance Of the eye, which later be-
comes more or less prurient and the
eyelids become gummed together. This
attracts flies and is very unsightly
thing, as well as torture to the af-
fected animal. The treatment should
be as follows:
Segregate the affected animals by
putting them If possible in shady
pen. Keep an abundant supply of
pure, cool drinking water before them.
and treat the eyes twice day as fol-
lows: First wash of the lids and eye
lashes with warm water and CASTLE
soap, then open the eye by catching
up the upper lid with the thumb and
first finger and rolling it back over the
second finger. By means Of medicine
dropper or cotton swab. wash the eye
out with the following solution:
Pyoktanin ten grains, boric acid
four drams, lead acetate one dram.
water sufficient to make eight ounces.

OVERCOMING GARLIC IN MILK
No Practical Method for Use on Dairy
Farms-keep Cows OF oarlicky
Pastures IL Best,

What is the best way to remove
the garlic taste in milk? This ques-
ton has been asked.
Though large milk establishments
have mechanical processes for taking
odors out Of milk and cream by
means Of an air blast, there is no
practical method for use on dairy
farms. An aerator would perhaps
be Of some slight advantage, but pre-
vention is the best cure. Keeping the
cows OF garlicky pastures several
hours before milking is the most ef-
fective means of overcoming the trou-
BILE.
One of the best ways to kill wild
garlic in pastures is to turn in sheep.
They like the tops, and in few years
the garlic will disappear.

wire in the top hole; drive down to

wire in the next hole, and so on un-

In this manner very small wire
may be driven in the ground without
bending, and only six inches Of same

the ground wire and connect same to
each wire of the fence and you will
have first-class lightning arrestor.

wires should be placed is a question

He wrote much about the. mystery
Of DEATH. and that subject interested
|ihim 10 such a degree that he haunted
grayeyards. One day he stood in the
graveyard surrounding his church, and
watched the weary sexton at work. It
was an old, old cemetery, and every
time grave was dug bones were
thrown up. Poor people buried there
could not count upon undlsturbed re-
pose. In . few years at most they
would have to make way for others.
Presently, as the sexton welded his
shovel, he threw out a skull, and the
preacher picked It up, and doubtless
moralized upon the vanity Of human
life. As he turned 1t around In his
hands, his fingers encountered a pro-
lection. It was the head Of nail.
Examination showed that the nail had
been driven through the skull, and 1t
still protruded into the inner cavity
two or three inches.
The reverend doctor realized at once
that a horrid crime had been commit
ted. He questioned the sexton as to
whose grave had been disturbed. but
the sexton didn't know. He had off,
ciated only a few years. Perhaps his
predecessor might remember. The
predecessor was a white and wintry
garter who lived at some distance.
Donne hunted him up, and took him
to the graveyard. The old mans wits
were feeble, but his memory for all
things connected with dead mems
bones was accurate. He at once an
nounced that the grave had been occu-
pied by Armstrong, the innkeeper.
Doctor Dome inquired about the VII
lage concerning the death Of Arm.
strong, and the Oldest Inhabitants re-
called the wife's queer story, and her
remarkable haste to get married again.
There was reason for suspicion, at
least; but the good doctor found It
almost impossible to believe that the
fine, devout woman who listened to his
sermons SO closely could be guilty Of
an atrocious crime. II ever calm,
untroubled face spoke Of a clear con-
science. the face belonged to that
woman.
: But he felt 1t his duty to set his
doubts at rest. If she was guilty. the
Cheyenne record., 1916-09-21

/ law must have Its due; If innocent,
she should be indicated. So one day
he called at the inn with a small pack
age in his hand. The good wife was
overwhelmed with pleasure and pride.
She took him into the best room, and
while her back was turned he opened
his parcel and placed the skull upon
table. When she turned around she
saw it and her face became CHASTITY.
'It's a curious SKULL" said Donne,
taking it up; 'see how huge nail has
been driven into it." And he looked
into her eyes as though he would read
her soul. She sank to a seat weeping
and incoming. and then, while the
gentle pastor held her hands she told
how she slew her husband. n
She was convicted and sentenced to
death, and during the brief interval
between her trial and execution the
man who had been her Nemesis proved
her comforter and consoler. He was
with her almost constantly through
those trying hours, and to such good
effect that she went out Of the world
hopefully, with a smile on her lips.

NEW FOOTWEAR FOR iARMY
Improved Shoe Model Will Be Hob
nailed for Service In
Mexico.

The war department appointed
shoe commission in 1912 to design a
model embodying the best points Of
all the army shoes, surprising them.
If possible. The shoe which was
adopted was of good materials, well
made on rational last designed by
the department. The interior is per-
fectly smooth, with heel broad and low
and sole moderately thick. The arch
Is flexible and without metal shank or
other stiffening. Eyelets are used
rather than hooks. The shoe reaches
but little above the ankle; it is wide
across the ball Of the foot and has q
high toe cap. 1t Is comfortable, neat
looking, light in weight and easily re-
moved or put on.
As soon as the soldiers wear out the
shoes Of the type which they are now
using on the border they will be refit-
ted with the new type which the gov
ernment has ordered, says writer in
the Outlook. The newest shoe Is hob
nailed and weighs three pounds seven
ounces. 1t has been adopted for Mexi-
can service because the present type
has not worn well In mountain climb
ing and has been readily cut up by the
malpais rock in Mexico. The shoe is
similar to that in use in the Italian
army.
Whether this model will be perma-
nently adopted is open to considerable
doubt. The weight of the shoes and
the stiffness of the leather used de-
tract from the comfort of 1t. 1t has
some disadvantages, therefore, bnt the
severe usage in Mexico made 1t desir-
able to give this type thorough try
out in regular service.

THE SCHOLAR AND THE SKULL

Sarah Maxwell's only claim to q
deathless renown rests upon the fact
that great man brought her to her
doom, and SO the details Of her life
story are meager, but few facts have
survived.
At the beginning Of the seventeenth
century she was maid servant in the
home Of wealthy citizen Of Hunting
d0nshire. She was unusually good
looking. and had some education-a
rare thing for a handmaiden in those
days-and was generally above her
station. In the employ Of the same
family there was a middle-aged man
named Armstrong. He was rather un-
couth, with huge shock Of sorrel
hair. and little mere is known Of
him, except that he was a great ia
vorite with his master. Armstrong
saved his money a penny at a time,
and as he approached the sere and yel-
low leaf he found he had <money enough
to buy an INN that was for sale. He
and Sarah were married, and took
possession Of the inn.
It is reasonable to suppose that the
influence Of the master was brought
to bear to effect this marriage Of
the servants, for it doesn't seem prob
able that Sarah would have chosen as
her husband loutish man more than
twice her age. However that may be,
the two settled down In their caravan
sary, and Sarah was greatly respected
and admired. Many young men made

the various units.

eyes ut the handsome wife, but they
had to keep their distance. Then one
morning Mrs. Armstrong calmly in.
formed the neighbors that her hus.
band had died during the night. He
had drunk himself into stupor before
retiring, she said, and died from the
effects of his debauch. That seemed
strange to some of the neighbors, for
Armstrong was known as an unusually
temperate man.. There doubtless was
some malicious gossip, but the husband
was buried in the crowded churchyard.
Before he had been there, among the
:ude forefathers Of the hamlet, for "a
hours. the widow had married young
nan named Maxwell. Then there was
more talk-enough to fasten the events
In the memories Of the Inhabitants, for
future use.
Sarah and her new husband conduct
ed the inn for many years. Sarah be-
came the mother Of several admirable
children, and was in every way an ex-
cellent matron. As she waxed older
she became devout and was free with
precept and admonition. Every Sum
day she might have been seen in the
church, and the eloQuence of the new
preacher often moved her to tears. BIS
eyes often were upon her as he talked,
for a good listener is great help to
