The cause Of and a remedy for clover
bloat have been found by D. j. Healy
and j. W. Nutter Of the Kentucky ag-
ricultural experiment station. These
facts are announced In circular No. 8,

Red clover blossoms contain about
B.6 per cent Of sugar, alfalfa blossoms

per cent. After being eaten by stock
this sugar undergoes rapid fermenta'

oxide. This causes the bloating
The authors of the bulletin strongly
recommend for acute bloating a quart
Of 1h per cent solution of formalin.
After this is administered a wooden
block should be placed in the animals
mouth, and the animal should be given
gentle exercise If 1t can be got on its
feet

What the Doctor Knows.
KIDNEYS MUST BE RIGHT

Few people realize to what extent their
health depends upon the condition OF the
kidneys.
The physician IN nearly all cases OF
serious illness, makes chemical analysis
OF the patients urine. he knows that un-
less the Kidneys are doing their work
properly, the other organs cannot readily
be brought back to health and strength.

MISTRIAL IN GRAHAM CASE.
Jury Fails to Agree in Hosiery Mill
Suit.

Columbia, Oct. 21.-Presiding
Judge S. w. G.. Shipp tonight at 9:25
o'clock ordered a mistrial in the case
of J. NJ. Graham, against the State of
South Carolina, in which Mr.. Gra-
ham was suing the State for 300,
alleged damages sustained as result
of the abolition of the penitentiary
mill while Mr.. Graham had a con-
tract for the use of the mill and con-
vict labor. The jury had been out
more than eight hours and the fore
man announced that it's members
were hopelessly disagreed.
The defense of the State was that
the hosiery mill had become a men
ace to health of convicts and through
them to the general public through
prevalence of tuberculosis among
those employed in the building.

WINTER TO BE BAD.
Dutch Prophet Says This Will be
Seyerer Winter Than Last.

w. Houseal, the Dutch Wealth
er Prophet" predicts killing frost
October 1S, and emphasizes that
weather conditions are already de-
veloping in this trend. He forecasts
a normal quantity of precipitation
for the remaining fall months. which
will be favorable for the sowing OF
grains. Rainfall, he says, will be nor
NAL through the fall and winter, in
creasing periodically until spring,
when there will be an excess of rain.
He expects the winter to be severer
than last. The forecast follows:
Rainfall during the fall and win
ter season will show the normal
amount of precipitation, increasing
periodically until spring will show an
excess. The remaining fall season
will be favorable for the sowing o.
grains.
Temperatures Will be lower than
last winter, with periods of cold
weather already confirm the forecast
for killing frost October IS. The
occurrence of the thunder storm Fri
day night, extending into Saturday
morning, formed conditions neces-
sary as the forerunner of similar
weather conditions which will prevail
with frequent intensity as the WIN
ter solstice approaches.
Favorable weather is indicated
for Harvest Jubilee week in Colum-
bia October 23-27."-The State.

Trajan's Wall.

The great war thrusts it's tongues
of flame into scenes that mark the
beginnings of human history and the
foundations of religions and empires.
In this moving picture our attention
has been called to the traditional site
of the Garden of Eden, to rivers that
are supposed to have Watered the
earthly paradise, to Mount Ararat,
Mount Sinai, and Mount Lebanon, to
relics of the Assyrian, Babylonian,
Egyptian, Parthian and Roman en-
pires, and to places that are closely
connected with the rise of Judaism,
Zoroastrianism, Christianity and Mo-
hammedanism. 1t is little world,
and war can but tread on ancient
ground. Not long ago we were re-
minded by the fighting at, Ctesiphon,
on the Tigris, that there the Pal
thians defeated Trajan, and now
comes the mention of Trajan's wall
in the Dobrudja as battle line, with
the Russians and Roumanians on the
north and the Germans and Bulgari-
ans on the south.
It was in the year 101 that Trajan
led his legions forth from home to
conquer the Dacians, whose country
comprised the provinces of Moldavia,
Wallachia and Pennsylvania, which
the Roumanians are now endeavoring
to reunite under one sovereign. Da-
cia's warrior, King Decebalus, de-
Tended his land so we'll that TraJan
had to start a second campaign four
years later before Dacia would ac-
knowledge Roman rule The wall
that bears the emperor's name is an
earthwork extending from the Dan
ube above Czernavoda to Constanza
on the Black sea. 1t is no great
rampant, being just an earthen ridge
from eight to fifteen feet high, but
the Turks defended it against the
Russians in 1854, and it might be
useful in the present Dobrudja fight.
Other traces of Trajan are still to be
found in the military road he con-
structed along the banks of the Dan
ube, including a commemorative tab
let, and the pier of a bridge he built
across the river near Orsova-
important point from which the Rou-
manians have driven the Austrians
back into their Banat province. And
there the war now bridges more than
1900 years.

Selecting the Cabinet.

Roosevelt is appearing as the
proxy for Hughes in the speech-mak-
ing effort of the Republican candi-
date to land. Roosevelt has been
called upon to put pep in the cam
paign, for Hughes is lacking in it,
and arouses no enthusiasm. He is
proving a frost in his stump-making
tour
With Roosevelt as his hope, it is to
be expected that his administration,
if by any misfortune he should be
elected, would be Roosevelt bossed
administration, that it would begin
with Roosevelt and end with Roose-
welt. And there is much thought in
this for the American public, which
knows the rocks upon which the ship
of state would drift with Roosevelt
in charge.

The Tick Closes the Gate.

Washington, D. c., Oct. 24.-On a
Tennessee stock farm, native COWS
that weighed from 500 to 700 pounds
each and ranged in value from $12
to $40 head were bred to pure
, bred Shorthorn bulls. When from
fifteen to eighteen months old the
calves were sold on the Chicago mar
ket. They weighed an average of
500 pounds and brought 8 cents a
pound, or s64 head.
This simple business transaction
represents the difference between sys-
tematic stock raising and selling
scrubs. One thing made it possible
the elimination of the tick. Grade
stock cannot be raised without pure
bred sires and pure-bred sires and
the cattle tick do not live long in the
same pasture. Usually the tick stays
and the sire dies of fever. That is
one reason why the average value of
beef cattle in tick-infested States is
always many dollars less than in tick
free country. There is no way of
grading up the herds.
In the particular case mentioned
it was in the days when Tennessee
was still tick-ridden-the stock own
er was a big enough man to be able
to get rid of the pest himself in his
own dipping vats and to import his
own breeding stock. The small
farmer can afford to do neither. But
he has just as much to gain in pro-
portion as the big man from good
stock and he wants it just as badly,
He can get it, first by cooperating for
systematic tick eradication work un-
der State and federal supervision and,
when that has been accomplished. by
Joining live stock associations and
bull clubs in which number Of far
mers have the joint use of a pure
bred sire. The United States depart
ment of agriculture will assist in the
formation of these associations, just
as it will assist in the eradication of
the tick.
If the regulations are properly OBJ
served, it takes ordinarily one season
to drive the tick out. Thereafter the
way is open for stock raising on a
scientific, profitable basis. This is
being done elsewhere in the South.
There are no ticks now in Tennessee
and Kentucky, and only one corner
of Virginia and the coast counties of
North Carolina are still infested.
Much of South Carolina is free, and.
about half of Mississippi and Ala
bama. There are large areas of free
territory in Georgia, northern Arkan-
sas and Oklahoma and in Texas. Sue
cessful work has been done, too, in
Louisiana and Florida. In fact,
there is not a single State in the
whole area originally under quaran-
tine which has not driven the tick
out of some part at least of it's terri
tory. :,
The people who have done this did
it because it paid. 1t is not only the
man primarily interested in beef
raising who profits. Every farmer
knows that his farm will benefit if
it has live stock on it, but he wants
that live stock not only to enrich his
land, but to pay for itself and more
besides. For the ordinary man the
tick cuts the profit down until they
are too small to notice; so he doesn't
keep many cattle. But when the
tick cuts the profits down until they
gate open for the pure-bred bull to
walk in and bring an income with
him.
