Jack McAuliffe quit the ring, undefeated, at the age of twenty six, after eight years of fighting. Kid LAviKne was twenty-nine when he lost to Erno, and had been scrapping ten yeafs. Erno was rwenty-seven when he lost the title to Cana The great nsele negro held the title till he was thirty-three, and had been fighting for seventeen years. Nelson was twen- ry-seven, Wolgast twenty-four, and Rltchie only twenty-three when the championship passed out of their keeping. Welsh is not only older in

 VIEWS OF Worlds War
BULGARIAN


 London, Aug. 17-Heavy fighting on the Balkan front is reported in an official Bulgarian statement received here today from Sofia. The Allied forces delivered strong infantry at- tacks, but. the statement says. were repulsed. The fighting occurred in the region of Lake Doiran, northwest of Salon iki, near the Greco-Serbian border. Several encounters have taken place in this vicinity of late but the official Bulgarian statement indicates that larger forces are now being employed against the Bulgarians. "On the evening" of Aug. l. A." the statement says, "the enemy's artillery opened a violent bombardment of our advanced positions south and west o1 Lake Doiran. Under cover of this fire the enemy's infantry attacked but was repulsed.
 "The bombardment continued and on the morning of the 18th the in- fantry again attacked with considera- ble force but was repulsed and com pelled to fall back in considerable disorder"

VERY SOUR SILAGE
IS NOT PALATABLE
It Is Not Rich Food and Animals
Are Therefore Compelled
to Eat Much of It.

Silage is palatable because it Is
green forage preserved with the ex-
ception that the sugar has been con-
verted into agreeable acids that stim-
ulate appetite and give a good flavor.
1t is possible to have too much acid
in the silage. A very sour silage is
not palatable. If the plant sliced con-
tains too much sugar, too much acid
will be produced. If it does not con-
tain much sugar, not enough acid will
be produced to give the desired fla
vor and aroma to the silage.
Silage is not magic foodstuff.
There is not quite as much food value
in it as there was in the plant from
which it came. 1t is not rich food
and stock is therefore compelled to
eat a rather good quantity Of it. A
good-sized COW may safely eat 40
pounds Of it in day Combined with
some feeds richer in protein, it meets
the needs of the animal Too great
things must not be expected Of it. 1t
is fair to expect that an acre of corn
put through the silo will have a great
er feeding value than the same acre
handled in the usual way. But the
added feeding value will usually not
be more than a third or fourth.

TO TELL A SLEEPS
AGE BY THE TEETH
Animal With One Pair of Perma.
nent MoIars Is YearIing, Says
Minnesota Expert.

(By r. G. PATTERSON, Animal Hus'
bandry Division, University Farm, st.
Paul, Minn)
A lamb has eight small first-teeth
on the lower jaw. When the animal
reaches the age of ABOUT one year,
the middle pair are replaced by two
permanent teeth; at the age Of about
two, the teeth on either side Of these
permanent teeth are also replaced
with a permanent pair; at the age OF
three, the next tooth on either side
gives way to q permanent tooth; and
at about the age of four, the last or
back teeth are replaced in like man
ner.
Briefly then, a sheep with one pail
of permanent teeth is yearling; a
sheep with two pairs is a twoyear
old; with three pairs, b three-yea,
old, and with four pairs, four'yeai
old
After a sheep is four years old, one
cannot tell by the teeth about the
age. However, one who is purchasing
a sheep should see to II that 1t has
not lost any teeth, or that the teeth
have not become long and shoe-peggy
IN appearance.

DISTEMPER A MOST
PECULIAR DISEASE
Veterinary Of Oklahoma Agricul-
turaI College Tells How Horse
Should Be Treated.

(Bv w. P. SHULER, Department OF Vet
erinary Medicine, oklahoma A. and M.
College, Stillwater)
For the treatment of distemper IN
horses, would recommend the fol-
lowing:
Have prepared this prescription and
administer it in tablespoonful doses
three times daily to the full-grown
animals and in teaspoonful doses
twice daily to the colts: Powdered
nux vomica, one part; powdered bella
donna leaves, one part; powdered
chlorate of potash, two parts; pow
dered colchicum root, one part; pine
tar sufficient to make pasty mass.
It may best be given by means OF a
little wooden paddle, with which the
material can be placed on the back
of the tongue and it will there go d.
rectly to the spine.
In cases where assesses nave
formed and broken they should be
syringed out with an antiseptic solu-
ton and painted with tincture OF To-
dine. Be sure that the animals
bowels are in good condition. If there
is any tendency to constipation, aA'
minister a suitable purgative, such as
oil, salts or aloes. In cases where the
nose and throat seem to be especially
affected, place the animal in a small
stall, taking a gallon or two of boil
ing water, add to it half a pint of car
bolic acid, and tie the animal SO that
its head be directly over this bucket
This will give relief by the inhalation
of carbolc acid vapors.

ATTENTION TO COLTS FEET
Great Danger In Allowing Hoofs Of
Young Animal to Grow Too Long
Avoid Trouble Later.

It has often been said that a
horses feet are the most important
parts of it's body; and anybody who
has had experience with lameness and
inability of horses to do reasonable
amount Of work because Of lameness
of one kind of another, will readily
acknowledge the Importance Of prop
erly caring for the feet Of the equine
stock on the farm.
Proper care Of the horses feet
means that attention must be given
when he is a colt. In fact, II the
horseman or farmer carelessly allows
the colts hoofs to grow long and un'
even, there is great deal more dan
ger of injuring the feet or deforming
them than if the same carelessness is
practiced with mature animals. The
bones, lgaments and tendons OF the
colts feet are not so hard nor SO
strong as those Of the mature horse,
and the result is that improper stand
ing, induced by poorly shaped hoofs,
throws the bones and ligaments out
Of their natural positions. Again, it
may be case Of where the colts legs
are crooked at birth, and in such in
stances care and attention to trim
ming the hoofs may be Of consider
able help in Strengthening the legs.
In handling the colts feet 1t is best
to begin with the front ones. Teach
the colt to rest his weight on the op'
posite foot, rather than the one which
is being held, by showing it enough
to throw the balance over on the op'
posite foot at the same time the other
foot is picked up. The proper learn
ing of this lesson will often save con
siderable trouble later when the colt
must be shod.
After the colts feet have been
picked up in this manner a few times
its hoofs can be trimmed with but
very little trouble Give this matter
attention and often the colt will come
out with a good set Of legs, when 1t
otherwise would be greatly hampered
at work or on the market by crooked
and weak "under-pinning."
The Harrison times., 1916-03-25

The first requisites of good driver
are a cool head and a watchful eye,
with ready fingers and the quick un-
derstanding of the needs and require
ments of his horse.
He must also be ready TO detect any
object by the roadside which would be
likely to annoy the horse and grasp
at a glance the character of the road
that lies ahead of him.
No quick-tempered, loud-voiced man
can expect to have a quiet, obedient
horse; and the undue haste of the
quick-tempered driver to correct what
seems to him misbehavior is one of
the reasons why so many horses are
dangerous to drive.
Much Of this abuse, however, to
which the horse is subjected, arises
more from sheer ignorance and care
lessness than from wanton cruelty.
Before starting on long drive you
should examine the horse, the har-
ness and the vehicle-the bit should
be as easy a one as possible, the har-
ness must be comfortable and wellfit-
ting.
Do not use a check rein if the road
is long and hilly, but should one be
necessary then loosen the head of the
horse before ascending a hill, when
going over muddy roads, and also
whenever you stop, as it is natural for
a horse to lower his head when he
makes an extra exertion, and also to
droop it when he is resting.
A horse should not only be allowed
to walk slowly along steep and muddy
parts of the road, but also occasionally
on level ground; the change from one
