after . hard days work in the Whar-

fair was In progress and the streets
were unusually crowded. In an alley
way Just of the sidewalk our genial
friend spied q crook Of the kind who
frequent fairs while on the hunt for
easy money, made up to represent a
farmer and standing behind an impro-
yised counter made of q board upen
the top Of . barrel. On the board
reposed three cards which looked to

cried "Ten this timei" 81. Rufus" put
down his ten and again picked the

KEEP ACCOUNT OF CHICKENS

The majority of farmers have little
idea how their poultry pays. Little

is in a hit-and-miss manner, more
often missed than counted. Try keep
ing an account not only of every egg
and chicken sold, but every egg and
chicken used In your own kitchen.

TREATING SHEEP FOR WORMS
Pasture Rotation, Combined With
Drugs, Is Practical Method of Sue
cessfully Combating Pest.

The stomach worm is the worst pest
affecting sheep. Lambs are more sus-
ceptible than older sheep, probably
because the older sheep are accus-
toned to the presence of the worm.
In the spring, soon after lambing, the
old sheep should each receive dose
OF one or two ounces of gasoline, fol
lowed by small dose of epson salts.
After a day or two they should be
placed in a worm-free pasture, If pos
sible.
In July treat the whole herd, includ-
ing the lambs, with gasoline, and
turn them into new pasture, and re-
peat the process in November. Pas
ture rotation, combined with drugs
that are injurious to the worms, is a
practical method of successfully com
batting this worm.

Results Of Research Have Been Of I'M
mense Value to Farmers In Many
Different Branches.

Scientists have learned much about
soils and plants and animals. They
have classified the soils and know
about their crop adaptation. The eff
fects Of manures, fertilizers, lime,
drainage and cultivation have been
studied. Varieties of the various
grains, grasses, legumes, fruits and
vegetables have been compared. The
production of fruit and vegetables de-
mands great skill.
Science has enabled the orchardist
and market gardener to combat sue
cessfully some Of the worst funguses
and insect foes. In dairying and poul-
try husbandry the results of research
have immense value for practical men.

Stomach Trouble Quickly Cured

People go on suffering from little
stomach troubles for years, and imagine
they have serious disease. They over
eat or over-drink and force on the stom-
ach lot of extra work, but they never
think that the stomach needs extra help
to do the extra work.
If these people would take Tonoline
Tablets regularly they would be great
big help to the stomach in its strain of
over-work. No matter what you eat or
drink Tonoline tabs sweeten your sour
stomach and stop gas belching in FIVE
minutes. The heayiness disappears,
and the stomach is greatly aided in its
work of digestion,
TONOLINE TABLETS
not only promptly relieve
all distress, but if taken regularly will
absolutely cure indigestion by building
up the fabby, overworked walls of the
stomach and make them strong enough
to digest the most hearty meal. 81 for

CHAPTER XII.

Next morning Duane was of again, working south. During the next few days he paid brief visits to several villages that lay in his path. And in each some particular friend had a piece of news to impart that made Duane profoundly thoughtful. A ranger had made Il quiet, unObtrusiye call upon these friends and left this message Tell Buck Duane to ride time after night"
 Duane concluded. and his friends all agreed with him. that the new rangers main purpose in the Nueces country was to capture or kill Buck Duane, and that this message was simply an original and striking ruse, the daring of which might appeal to certain out laws.
 But It did not appeal to Duane. His curiosity was aroused it did not how ever. tempt him to any fOoihardy act. He turned southwest and rode a hun dred miles until he again reached the sparsely settled country. Here he llp iilclt tA

ADJUST THE HARNESS RIGHT
Collar soiIs Often Caused by Improper Fastening of the Trace Chain
 on the flame.

Collar boils are often caused by i'm proper adjustment of the fastenings of the trace chain on the hame. Every hame should have several places for adiustmeat and the regulation should be p:dde to conform to the slope of the shoulders of the individual horse. Horses with straight shoulders should have traces about midway of the hame. while horses with sloping shoulders should have the adjustment about two tifths of the way up from the bottom.
 Adjustment of the backband will in a measure correct any weakness in the formation of the shoulder. The back band can be made not only to carry a part of the weight. thereby adjusting the dept of the blow, but it can be made to adjust the draft to fit the horses shoulder. The adjustment can be made either by shortening the back band or moving it farther back on the horse. The length of the trace should be such as to prevent the horses legs knocking against the singletree and S;!!! have n" surplus length.

 WhlstlerS, wheezers, blowers or roarers. These uncOmplimentary terms were not applied in anger. but merely used to indicate the character of the unsoundneSs in horses, known as roaring. Their use may be avoided by saying that the horse it afflicted with laryneeai hemip!eg:a. Horses af- fected with this disease appear nor nal while at rest, but when severely exercised the breathing efforts become much greater and the characteristic noises are heard. Ninety per cent of the cases are caused by partial paralysis of the muscles of the left side of the neck. It may be cured In a great majority of cases by an opera tion on the larynx. The operation is not dangerous if performed by a skill full veterinarian. Most cases are ready to be put back to work in course of eight weeks.
