Care should be taken constantly
to see that the cattle have plenty
of water and salt so that they will
not go thirsty. When water is
scarce and the cattle fill up on
dry stalks trouble is apt to occur
when this food becomes soaked
with water.
AS stated before. even when
cattle are treated in this manner
losses will occur. Nevertheless,
there is no question but that the
danger Of loss is greatly dimin-
ished by careful methods of hand
ling. Sometimes cornstalks seem
to harbor prussic acid or some
other poison, the nature of which
is not fully understood, and that
is another reason why cattle
should not be allowed to eat too
heavily of the stalks on the start.
If in spite of taking the precau-
tons mentioned, losses still occur
in some fields, keep the cattle
out of them.-Farmer and Stock
man.

M. w. A. Meeting.

Butler Camp No. 245S, Modern
Woodmen of America held one of
the largest and most enthusiastic
meetings in the history of the
camp at their hall Thursday
night. Over one hundred Of the
neighbors were present and all
enjoyed the occasion to the fullest
extent. One new member was
adopted into the mysteries of the
order and two new applications
were received and accepted for
membership. Butler Camp now
has over four hundred members
in good standing and all the af-
fairs of the camp are in a most
excellent condition.
After the adoption ceremonies
an elegant lunch was spread, the
menu consisting Of sandwiches,
coffee, pickles, apples, cider and
cigars. The neighbors seemed to
indulge into an eating contest as
each and everyone was given an
unlimited amount to consume and
it was d hard matter to decide
which neighbor ate the most but
it was finally decided to be a tie
between Ncighbors Frank Allen
and J. Edward Williams.
After the lunch several speech
es were made by the neighbors for
the good of the order and the
honor for being the best speaker
and humorist was almost an even
break between Neighbors DR.. T.
F. Lockwood and Hon. Asa
Roster.
Butler Camp has made a splen-
did showing during the past year
and considerable credit for this
excellent showing is due to the
efforts of the Camp Of
ficers who have been ever faith
full in the performance of their
duties. The aim of the M. w. A.
Order this year was to secure one
thousand new members
and on the first day of November
lO7, 1O4 new members were Sc
cured and it is now expected that
over 1875, 900 new members will be
by the close of the year.

was held and the following Of

Loss Of Stock in Stalk Fields

Reports are beginning to come
0m farmers of cattle losses in
Halk fields, due to what is gen.
orally termed cornstalk disease.
The annual loss from this cause
~ very great and can be consid-
erably reduced by careful meth
DDS of handling cattle. We are
aware of the fact, however, that
under careful management losses
do occur that are apparently un-
applicable. On the other hand,
1t is equally true that it pays to
take certain precautions, which
experience has proven greatly to
reduce the danger of pasturing
stalk fields.
Cattle should never be turned
into a stalk field on an empty
stomach. On the other hand, they
should be given hay or some 9TH
er feed that they relish before
they are turned out in the morn
ing. When their hunger is par
TALLY satisfied in this manner
they will not eat so much of the
dried stalk and consequently i'm
FACTION of the stomach which is
q frequent cause of death in the
stalk fields will be avoided.
Another thing is to provide
plenty of good water for
the cattle before they are
turned out in the morning. and to-
insure good drinking the cattle
should have free access to the
salt every day.
The next thing to do is to &C.
custom the cattle gradually to the |
dry stalks by not leaving them
in the stalks more than one hour |
the first day. The second day
the time may be extended to an

CALONEL TODAY,
SICK TOMMOROW
Dose of nasty calomel makes you
sick and you lose
days work.

Calomel salivates! It's mercury
Calomel acts like dynamite on a slug
gish liver. When calomel comes into
contact with sour bile it crashes into
it, causing cramping and nausea. ,
If you feel bilious, headachy, consti
pated and all knocked out, just go to
your druggist and get a so cent bottle
of Dodson's Liver Tone, which is a
harmless vegetable substitute for dan
gerous calomel. Take spoonful and
if it doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up better and quicker
than nasty calomel and without max
ing you sick, you just go back and
get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; besides,
it may salivate you, while If you take
Dodson's Liver Tone you will wake up
feeling great, full of ambition and
ready for work or play. It's harmless,
pleasant and safe to give to children |;
they like it.-(Advt.)

Solomon as Naturalist.

There is an odd reluctance upon
the part of many people to go to the
ant, the water-bug, the beetle and 9TH
er "invertebrate" or backboneless
creatures, to consider their ways and
be wise. Solomon was a learned nat
uralist of his day and perhaps the
first animal behaviorist Of all time.
Not alone ants and bees taught him
much, but all insects, beasts of the
field and birds of the air contributed
to his wisdom. If Solomon were alive
today, he would more than glory in
the domain of experimental research
into the behavior of the lower crea-
lures. He would no doubt write a
down-to-date volume of proverbs
founded upon the learning abilities,
the memory and the behavior in gen.
eral Of fleas, lice, flies, gnats and
other insects.

People are realizing more and more
every day that the kidneys, just as do the
bowels need to be flushed occasionally.
The kidneys are an eliminative organ and
are constantly working, separating the
poisons from the blood. Under this con-
tinual and perpetual action they are apt to
congest, and then trouble starts. Uric acid
backs up into the system, causing rheuma-
tism, neuralgia, dropsy and many other
serious disturbances. Doctor Pierce of
Buffalo, New York, advocates that every
one should drink plenty of pure water be-
tween meals. Every day should exercise
in the outdoor air sufficiently to sweat pro-
fusely, and from time to time stimulate
the kidney action by means of "Anuric." !"

out at his Sanitarium, in the same way as
