THREE FuGlTlvEs TAKEN

Three fugitives from the Ohio State
Prison at Columbus were captured by
Winchester and Lynn authorities
about mile east of Lynn, Randolph
county, yesterday. The men had
robbed the freight depot of the Big
Four railroad at Winchester shortly
before their arrest.

CLOVER BETTER FOR
WINTER NURSE CROP
Late Pasturing and Cutting Are
Especially Dangerous-GNe
Crowns Protection.

A thin seeding of grain is the best
insurance of good stand of clover. A
half busl,el or three pecks of grain as
nurse crop will protect the young
clover plants, and at the same time
give them room to grow.
Winter killing is often brought about
by not allowing the clover to make a
good growth in the fall. If the farmer
cuts his clover late or pastures it
down so that it goes into the winter
without good protection to the crowns,
he often finds much of it dead in the
spring. Late pasturing and late cut
ting are especially dangerous to the
clover field.

ment Of Agriculture.)
There are three general methods of
producing hogs for market: Dry-lot
feeding; feeding on pasture and for
age crops; and feeding on dairy by
products. By dry-lot feeding is meant
feeding in confined pens; forage
crops include alfalfa, Bermuda grass,
blue grass, ETC., and the crops which
require to be planted each year; and
dairy by-products are skim milk, whey
and buttermilk.
A ration for young, growing ami
NAL requires larger percentage of
protein than one for fattening or for
mature animals. AS the shote increases
in age and size the protein may be
gradually cut down until the stand
ard for fattening hog is reached.
Forage crops have been used more
economically as a source of protein
than purchased feeds and have the ad-
vantage of supplying it in palatable,
succulent form. Alfalfa probably fur
nishes the cheapest and best forage
for swine when it can be grown. Even
during winter alfalfa hay can be fed
in racks and with ear corn furnishes
a well-balanced feed for almost all
kinds of hogs.
Clover, cowpeas, soy beans, pea
nuts, rape, rye, oats, wheat, vetch and
Canada field peas are all valuable
forage crops for swine of any age.
The proper grain ration to feed with
them consists of such feeds as corn,
barley, ETC., with the legumes, and
with the nonlegume plants the use Of
a small percentage Of tankage and oil
meal will be found advisable. The
amount to feed will depend on the
rate of gain desired. If rapid gains
are sought, full ration of grain
should be used, but If economy is
more desirable smaller proportions
Of grain will be better. while II 1t is
only desired to carry the pig crop
over a period of bow prices they can
be kept on a minimum grain ration.
1t is best, however, to keep them
growing, and to do this a small
amount of grain, two or three per cent

MOST OF FALLACIES
REGARDING ANIMALS
Prevention and Treatment of Dis
eases Bound to Result in
FaiIWe-CaSeS Cited.

(By E. r. HABNER, Idaho Experiment
Station.)
There is no doubt that the more
complete our knowledge of the cause
of disease the more perfect will be
our means Of prevention and the more
rational our treatment OF the same.
The reverse is equally true. If our
knowledge is based on fallacy, our
prevention and treatment is bound to
result in a failure.
Most of the fallacies regarding ami
mails and their diseases have been
handed down from one generation to
another, and the most of them
haven't the least ground for existence.
The following ones belong to this
class:
1. That there are certain signs of
the zodiac during which castration OF
animals is highly unsafe.
2. That there is drug or combina-
ton of drugs which is specific for a
certain disease, regardless of it's form,
intensity or complications.
3. That we can cure systemic dis
eases by such magical treatment as
pouring water or other fluids into the
ear.
4. That medicines to be effective
must have a noxious odor, taste or
origin.
5. That we have such diseases as
hollow horn," "lost cud" and wolf in
the TAIL"
6. That animal life from its origin
to death is in great part Influenced by
mysteries.
