Information About
1916 Farm Boys Hike

The Second Annual Williams Coun.
ty Farm Boys Hike will be held dur
ing the week of July 10th 1916. The
Hike will be conducted under the same
plan as last year. This year, however
the boys are to finance the hike in
full. The cost to each boy will be
$500. We believe that this hike can
be conducted at less cost for each
boy than $500 but we are going to re-
quest that each boy pay in $500 and if
all expenses are paid, any balance will
be refunded.
Applications must be filed with the
County Commissioner of that dis
trict.
The Hike is conducted under the
auspices of the Williams County
Better Farming Association and the
Commissioners are directors Of this
association.
Each boy will be required to fur
nish his blankets, knife, fork, spoon
and cup.
The money must accompany each
application.

WHAT CATARRH IS

1t has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness
of the body; and local treatments in
the form Of snuffs and vapors do little,
if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat its
cause by enriching your blood with the
medicinal food and building-tonic, free
from alcohol or any harmfuld drugs. Tryit.

ous. l cannot come to each of you and take my leave, but shall be obliged to you if each of you will come and take me by the hand
 profound silence followed as the officers gaZed at the countenance of their leader, while the eyes of all were wet with tears. He then expressed again his desire that each of them should come and take his hand.
 One after another followed, receiv- ing and returning the affectionate adieu of their commander, after which he left the room in silence, followed by his officers in procession to em- bark in the barge that was to convey him to Paulus Hook, now Jersey City.
 AS he was passing through the light infantry, drawn up on either side to receive him, an old soldier who was by his side on the terrible night of his march to Trenton, stepped out of the ranks and reached out his arms, exclaiming: Farewell, my dear gen. eral, farewell." Washington seized his hand most heartily, when the sol diers forgot all discipline, rushed toward their chief and bathed him with their tears. The scene was like that of a good patriarch taking leave of his children and going on long jour- ney whence he might return no more.
 Having entered the barge, he turned to the weeping company upon the wharf and, waving his hat, bade them a silent adieu. They stood with heads uncovered until the barge was hidden from their view, when, in silent and solemn procession, they returned to the place where they had assembled. Napoleon Bonaparte said Poster ity will talk of Washington with rev erence, as the founder of a great em- pire, when my name shall be lost in the vortex of revolution"
 Like so many other of the prophe- cies of the great Napoleon, it's truth is becoming more and more apparent every day. A little more than 116 years ago. Washington died at Mount Vernon at the age of siXty-eight. after an illness of only 24 hours. in l799

TELL SHEETS AGE BY TEETH
When Purchasing an Animal One Should See to 1t That None of
 MoIars Are Missing.

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 per manent teeth, at the age of about two the teeth on either side of these permanent teeth are also replaced with permanent pair; at the age of three the next tooth on either side gives way to 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 pair of permanent teeth is a yearling; sheep with two pairs is a two-yoar old; with three pairs, 6 three-year odl; and with four pairs, four-year old.
 After a sheep is four years old, one cannot tell by the teeth about the age. However, ore who is purchasing a sheep should see to it that it has not lest any teeth, or that the teeth haS9 not become long and shoe-peggy in appearance.

 Here you say "B'soir," and insist that you can find your way without further guidance. You retrace your steps, halting now and then to be cer- tain of your direction, and come at last to view the ruin of a fine old tapestry. On you go to the great ground floor and finger a moment for one last look at the slave mart. Then your feet find the quiet street and a cool mist-driven wind smites your face refreshngly. You swing back easily to the present and everyday realities, but the old Hotel St. Louis is graven upon your heart. It will slip into your thoughts again and again no matter where you may be.

attack The siege of Yorktown was splendid thing-but the real test came at Valley Forge When at last the hour came to fight, fighting was easy by comparison with the waiting that had preceded it.
 On July ?, 1775, General Washing ton arrived at Cambridge, Mass ac- companied by Major General Lee, his next in command. and other officers, and established headquarters in the mansion subsequently, occupied by Longfellow. About nine o'clock on the morning of the following day, at tended by suitable escort, he pro- ceeded from his headquarters to a great elm tree near Harvard college Here the Continental forces were drawn up in military order. Under the shadow of the tree Washington drew his sword as commander in chief of the American army, declaring that it should never be sheathed until the liberties of his country were estab- lished
 Finally the day came for Washing
  ton to take leave of his army-October IS, 17s3. For the last time he assem- bled them at Newburgh, N. Y, when he rode out on the field and gave them one of those paternal addresses which so eminently characterized his rela- tionship with his army.
 But his final leave of everything con- nected with his military life was taken on December 3, 17S3, at Faunces tav- ern, New York city. Here he had re- quested his officers in full uniform to assemble. On entering the room and finding himself surrounded by his old companions in arms his agitated feel ings overcame his usual self-control. Every man arose with eyes turned toward him. Filling a glass of wine and lifting it to his lips, he rested his benignant but saddened countenance upon them and said
 With a heart full of love and grati- tude, l now take leave of you. 1 most devotedly wish that your latter days may be as prosperous as your former ones have been honorable and glori-

AVOID SPREAD OF lNFECTlOf
Thorough Disnfection Is Essential se and Efficient in Preventing
 Contasions

In any outbreak of infectious dis ease among animals thorough disin- lection of the premises is essential to preventing the spread of the conta- zion. Certain substances, such as fresh slaked lime or unslaked lime in powder form, chloride of lime, car bollc acid, corrosive sublimate, for malin, formaldehyde gas, and com. pound solution of cresol possess the power of destroying bacteria with which they come in contact. To make the use of such substances of value, however, the work must be done with the utmost thoroughness
 In the disinfection of stables and premises the following directions should be carefully observed:
 l. Sweep ceilings, side walls, stall partitions, floors, and other surfaces until free from cobwebs and dust.
 2. Remove all accumulations of filth by scraping, and if woodwork has become decayed porous, or absorbent, it should be removed, burned. and re- placed with new material
 5. 1T the floor is of earth, remove inches from the surface, and ill places where it shows staining with urine sufficient depth should be re- placed to expose fresh earth
 4. All refuse and material from sta ble and barnyard should be removed to a place not accessible to slaked lime.
 5. The entire interior of the stable, especially the feeding troughs and drains, should be saturated with a dis. infectant, as a per cent solution of compound solution of cresol GU. s. P.), which would be four ounces of the compound to every gallon of water.
 The best method of applying the dis infectant is by means of a strong spray pump, such as those used by orchardsists.
 This method is efficient in disin. lection against most of the conta. gious and infectious diseases of ami mals, and should be applied immedi. ately following any outbreak, and, as a matter of precaution, it may be used once or twice yearly.

\ you are a lover of the quaint,
 W the picturesque, the old, or you
 would not find yourself in the
 old slave mart of Le Vieux Carre de New Orleans on a glowering day, when the storm clouds over hanging the East are sending out streaks of lightning
 Presently you pass through an or nate entrance to the ground floor of a huge old wrinkled building, peeling off for it's final plunge into oblivion. It is the historic Hotel St. Louis, erected In 1886. Don Pedro, emperor of Brazil, and afterward his grandson, were it's guests. Here banqueted statesmen, princes and famous men, and here, be- fore the changing of the tides, were sittings of legislative bodies, says the Kansas City Star.
 As you stand in the listening si- lence, in the dampness of mold and decay, you unconsciously visualize the life of longgone yesterday. Now suddenly you start, disturbed by an impression of sound down a long, dark, dusty passageway. It is only the rain seeping in, drip, drip, every spatter echoing hollowly in the empti- ness. Again you drift back to your dreams, and again your nerves twang, this time at the scuttle of rat in the broken wainscoting behind an old slave block, showing the crumbling, though quite distinguishable, name of famous auctioneer of ante-bellum days. Beyond the block and the mart about it your searching eyes find a wide expanse of earth and cement floor bordered by rows of cells almost wholly stripped of bars, where slaves were held before their appearance upon the block to be sold to the high est bidder
 With a swift intake of breath you reach the rusty gratings and peer into the dusky interior You catch a whiff of chill, earthly air and the plaintive chirp of cricket. It requires but a slight turn of your imagination to people the prison with soft-eyed pa tient slaves awaiting orders with the stolidity and obedience that was part of their nature. You see the old and the young, the strong and the weak, and all the various types, from

 Led by the ChateIaine.
 You glance at two holes high up in the outer wall which show the light like pair of prying eyes under shag- gy brows, then you take bracing breath and go on. But you halt ab- ruptly at the sound of an opening door and the echo of slow and drag ging feet coming nearer and nearer. In moment woman short and heavy of build, with the mingled air of gra- ciousness and reserve, is before you She is the chatelaine. You know it before she says "Entrez!" in her charming throaty French. She has on a skirt of faded crimson and blue, with a basquelke bodice of luminous green. She wears a cap of soiled D'Alencon lace, and a fine odd brooch of jet as sparkling black as her deep- set eyes. Instinctively you drop silver piece into the bag which dangles with bunch of keys from her ample waist, and follow her shuffling lead.
 To the accompaniment of her ex- planatory and also rapid French, you are shown salons with cracked and sunken marble fireplaces, salons with vanished onyx floors, once pressed by the satin-clad feet of many beautiful women, mildewed mirrors made in the days of the first empire, crystal chandeliers with broken pear-shaped prisms, and walls from which price. less frescoes and frieZes and medal lions have been removed, bits of bronze from an old balustrade, the bat tered fragments of a fountain.
 One Room Still Home.
 When you have looked into count less chambers and heard the history of each, you come upon a half-open door which reveals a scene of homely comfort Here lives the chatelaine, alone, save for white cockatoo, a canary and a tortoise shell cat. There's one old mended antique chair upholstered in gay colored chintz, a spindle-legged table rich with carving and black with age, shelf set with row of clean blue dishes and shining pots and pans. A kettle singing over the fire gives out the appetizing smell

coarse Herculean African to slender clear-eyed octoroon. The octoroon holds your attention. She Is young and strong and will sell for several thou sand dollars. In a moment she stands on the block and the voice of the auc- tioneer leaps out like a whip lash: Gentlemen, this is a likely wench. What am I bid for her?" There fol lows a rapid. sing song recital of the girls salable points, ending with scarcely a noticeable break in the crisp, persuasive challenge:
 What am bid?"
 Bidding for the Slaves.
 A prosperous looking planter strides forward and touches her arms ap- praisingly, then his hand falls un- abashed to her strong bare ankles He steps back obviously pleased, call ing out with assumed indifference: One thousand dollars." Higher the bids go, higher and higher; voices rise and fall, rise and soar and swell, un- til at last the hammer falls, the bab- ble subsidies and the octoroon steps down to her new master. AS by no volition of your own, your mind slips back to the cells and to buxom, kind-faced nanny, created and en- dowed to nurse the offspring of white mothers. She will bring but a modest price in the mart, for there are many of her kind. Here is a young quad room, there a gray old Creole darky, somewhere else very black and strapping half grown negress. You sense their speaking voices, deep and melodious, jargon of French and Spanish inlaid with many little Eng fish words. Suddenly in the cells occupied by the men, the coarser blacks break out in a burst of wild, weird song, cut through by the tam tam of a drum made of a gourd cov- cred with shcepSkin.
