George Z. Ladd, Of the State college
will call meeting Of New Mexico cat
tlemen at the Ell Paso Cattlemen's con-

e. Paso and Albuquerque conventions.
TO consider the betterment Of the
southwestern range conditions, the
elimination of poisonous plants on the
range and the reduction Of disease and
pests. in fact, to consider all the prob

It is desired TO create closer relations
between the Agricultural college and

OF the southwest so that the cattlemen
might be served in the same efficient
manner as the irrigation and dry farm
rers are by the institution

AM ERicAN icHTHYOL

The current publication of the Uni
ted States Geological Survey, Depart.
ment OF the Interior on the produc-
ton OF asphalt and related bitumens
In 1915 contains brief note on the
subject of ichthyol. Prior to August
1914, this asphaltic material which
is employed as an antiseptic medica-
ment, was imported from Europe. 1t
Is derived from a bituminous rock,
filled with fossil fish, that Is found In
the Austrian Tyrol. American i'm
ports had increased from $4,000
pounds in 1910 to $4,000 pounds in
1914, but dropped off last year to less
than $4,000 pounds. In view o. the
inadequacy of the foreign supply to
meet the domestic demand under the
present conditions It Is interesting to
know that in this product as in 9TH
ers, America has come to depend on
its own resources. So far as known
there are in the United States no de-
posts OF asphaltic material of the pc
culiar type from which ichthyol is
derived, but American chemists have
solved the problem Of supplying the
domestic needs I'm this regard and ia
vorably recommended substitutes for
ichthyol, prepared from domestic ma
tarialo hy synthetic met hods are now
available in the markets.
The Geological Surveys general re-
port on Asphalt Related Bitumens and
Bituminous Rock in 1915 is now ready
for distribution. During the year the
natural asphalt Of all varieties sold at
the sources OF production in the Uni.
ted States aggregated 1871 short
tons, valued at $526.490.

around the globe in the body of the

every case of human plague costs the

The disease is now treated by Sc

Plague is transferred from the sick
rodent to the well man by fieas. The
sick rat has enormous numbers of

Is taken by the flea which leaving the

whom 1t transfers the infection.

Peking's New
Hospital Started

Picking, Aug. 20 The signing of the
contract for thebuilding Of the new
central hospital in Picking marks the
successful termination of a campaign
egun last December to raise subscrip
tions for this much needed institution
In spite OF the turmoil throughout the
world, the promoters Of this scheme
have never relaxed their efforts to
provide Picking with a modern and
well-eQuipped institution that will offer
the best medical treatment to both
rich and poor.
Following the initial 100000 pledg.
ed at the meeting to inaugurate the
project last December, the ministry
of the interior presented the trustees
with a piece of land in the west city
on the Ping Chin Men Ia Chieh, ad.
joining the famous temple of imperial
ancestors. The small houses situated
in this vicinity have been bought, and
the hospital grounds now cover an
area of nearly six English acres.
The project has been put into the
hands of an American firm of archi.
tects who are now at work on plans
for three-story building that will ac-
commodate fifty first and second class
patients and one hundred third class
patients. Every modern contrivance
will be nstalled-electric elevators,
steam heating, sanitary plumbing, ETC.,
and the building will be the first fire.

interest has been taken in this hospit'

companies will make similar conces
sions.

It is a remarkable fact, confirmed
by many observations that many ply
sicians who have devoted consider
able labor to the study of a partic.
ular disease have themselves died Of
that disease. One of the most in
teresting examples is that of John D..
Major, born August l6. 1884 in Bres-
lau, physician and naturalist of no
mean ability. Bitten early by the
wanderlust, he studied at Wittenburg
took courses at many of the schools
In Germany and finally went to Italy
where he received the degree OF doc.
tor of medicine at Padua in 1860 Re
turning to his own country, he resid-
ed for short time In Silesia. and In
1861 married at Wittenburg, Margaret
Dorothy, daughter of the celebrated
Sennert. The following year, his
young wife was stricken with plague
and died after an illness of eight days.

frequent voyages, however, always in
quest of the remedy for plague. Fin

The Brood Mare

The colts of America are bred on
the farms in numbers of one to half n
dozen and do not come from herds 40
Is the case with cattle and sheen
Colt raising is therefor the farmers,
problem.
1t is probable that in the fall the
percentage of well developed and
healthy foals as compared with mares
available for breeding is not above
fifty. Much can be done to raise this
percentage by patronizing a properly
handled virile stallion and by sending
the mares to him at the right times.
Likewise much can be done by proper
care and feeding Of the mares, since
the care and development of the foal
should start long before he is born.
The two most common mistakes are
the keeping OF the mares so low in
flesh that she has not the vitality to
carry and deliver a strong vigorous,
fully developed foal and the keeping
Of her in high flesh with little exercise
Feeding and exercise spell the differ
ence between success and failure in
horse breeding. The brood mare af
ter safely in foal should be fed with
the purpose Of maintaining her in
medium Hesh-neither fat nor thin.
The hay may be wild hay, timothy or
alfalfa. The most common mistake
In feeding hay is where alfalfa is
available and abundant. In that case
the mare is often permitted to stun
herself with one and one half to two
times as much as she needs. The
stable is flooded with dark colored
urine and the elimination OF the ex-
cessive nitrogen carried by the alfal.
ia is an unnecessary tax during tho
period Of pregnancy.
The common mistake in grain feed,
ing is to withhold 1t altogether. II
the animal is working sine should have
some grain. Oats Is foundational in
horse feeding and can be well used
alone especially when the hay consists
of alfalfa or clover. Bran mixed with
the oats or fed separately once or
twice week assists in keeping the
digestive system and intestines in
good working order.
Exercise is necessary and the best
way to give It is in the collar and
under harness. The infoal mari may
be safely worked to within week or
ten Gays Of foaling. The work should
not be such as to necessitate strains
or excessive heavy pulling.
A brood mare fed a medium ration
CT the feeding stuffs mentioned kept
in medium flesh and given plenty Of
exercise will ordinarily have little
trouble in foaling and will bring forth
healthy, vigorous, and active on
spring.
The foals start in life is all import
ant and is dependent directly upon
heredity and the feeding and care Of
the dam.-E. J. Iddings, Idaho A. c..
