Wilson Misunderstands:

President Wilson either misunder.
stands, or refuses to understand, the
position OF the Pressives who are
working shoulder to shoulder with the
Republicans to elect Governor Hughes
Mr.. Wilson is continually pointing to
the fact that there is more or less
variation OF views between the more
extreme Progressives and the extreme
Republicans on economic subjects. He
seems amazed that what he terms
"a conglomeration Of conflicting
views" should be unit in tine effort
to elect Mr.. Hughes. What Presi.
dent Wilson fails TO understand is
that. whether the views OF the Re.
publicans and the former Progressives
differ much or little, they are q unit
on what they regard as of supreme
Importance, that is, the radiance of
the country of wisconsin. They are
unanimously of the opinion that vii.
sonism Is grave menace to Ameri.
canism. In the last analysis, 1t is the
character Of Woodrow Wilson which
is SO offensive to those who know It
that they find no difficulty in burying
their economic differences and uniting

Nation from another four years OF

TO PREVENT WHITE SCOURS
Pennsylvania State Experiment Sta,
tion Outlines Some Suggestions
81. s to Prevent Disease.

White scolIrs is germ disease
neuce its suppression lies in the pre-
,vention of infection. The Pennsylva.
mia state experiment station outlines
the following suggestions for the pre-
vention of this disease:
The COW should be permitted to
drop her calf upon clean bed of
straw in thoroughly disinfected
stall. Immediately after birth of the
calf, the umbilical cord should be
soaked in 2 per cent solution of
some standard dip. A wide-mouthed
vessel will be the most convenient
container for the solution, as it may
be held close to the body and the cord
folded down into the solution.
To prevent contamination the cord
should not be touched with the fin
gers. After soaking, both the cord
and an area three inches in diameter
surrounding it should be painted with
iodine, by means of small piece of
absorbent cotton. A drying powder
of equal parts boric acid, powdered
alum and flowers of sulphur should
then be busted on the cord twice daily
until it has dried off. The powder
should be applied with busting can.
Additional precautions include the
rinsing of the cows udder with a dip
solution to destroy germs on these
parts before the calf is sucked, and
thorough cleaning of the stable, in
Guiding disinfection of the walls and
floors.
If the calf is very valuable, dairy
men are advised by the Pennsylvania
station to inject a serum prepared
from a number of organisms found in
calves with white scours, as pre-
ventive. This should be done as soon
as the calf is dropped.

BAL ANCED RATION FOR CALF
Separator Milk Is Liable to Cause In
digestion, capricous Appetite
and Diarrhea.

(By GEORGE H. GLOVER, Colorado
Agricultural College, Fort Collins)
Separator milk is not a balanced
ration for calves. On this feed alone,
and the way it is usually given to
them, they are liable to get indiges-
ton, as shown by a bloated condition,
capricious appetite and diarrhea. Most
Of this trouble can be averted by add
ing handful of oilmeal, cornmeal or
cottonseed meal, to supply, in way,
the fat that has been removed in the
skimming. The milk should be given
to them warm and never when it Is
frothy. Never allow a calf to drink
all of the milk that it wants at one
meal. 1t is bad practice to allow sew
eral calves to drink out of one
trough, some of them will get too
much. Care in feeding calves is Of
vastly more Importance than "cures"
for calf scours.
