USE HOT IRON FOR DOCKING.
Old Knife Method Causes Too Much
Loss of Blood.

Lambs should be locked at from
to IL days after birth, say the animal
husbandry men at Iowa State college
although it can be done later with
out particular danger.
Docking is essential, for it not
only adds to the appearance and
hence to the market value of the
flock, but prevents numerous trou-
bles which arise from the collection
of filth in the region of the tail.
The common method is to cut the
tails with sharp knife. A better
way is to use hot iron. This pre-
vents the loss of blood. Place the
lamb on rump with tail (under side
up resting on firm support. Using
a rather blunt iron, scar the tail off
about one inch from the body of the
lamb.

LITTLE GIRL CAUSES FATHERS
DEATH.
Daughter Starts Tractor Causing
Death of Father.

What Cheer, Ia, May 15.-Ollie
Gates, farmer living near here
was fatally injured yesterday after
noon, when both legs were crushed
by tractor, which had been started
by Bates 5-year-old daughter. Bates
died today. Bates was working on
the tractor when his little daughter
came out in the field to watch him.
While the father was working under
the machine supposedly making re-
pairs, the little girl sat in the engi-
neer's seat playing with the levers.
Suddenly the machine shot forward,
drawing Bates under the mammoth
wheels. Both limbs were badly
crushed.
Efforts of doctors to save his life
were futile. Due to the great loss OF
blood, he failed to revive from the
shock.
The tractor had been secured by
Bates in exchange for his rights to a
patent on a sparkplug invention
which he had perfected
Bates was 40 years ola.
