TREATING SHEEP FOR WORMS
Pests May Be Combatted by Pasture
Rotation, Combined With Drugs
Injurious to Insects.

The stomach worm is the worst
pest affecting sheep. Lambs are more
susceptible than older sheep, prob
ably because the older sheep are ac-
customed to the presence of the worm
In the spring, soon after Landing, 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 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 repeat the
process in November. Pasture rota-
ton. combined with drugs that are IN
furious to the worm, is practical
method of successfully combating this
worm.

sAMoANs INITIATE EUROPE
They Wear Civilized Clothing and
Eat Fancy Food-Natiwe Homes
Now Made Of Sawed Pine.

The natives of Samoa are exhibiting
marked inclination to initiate Euro
pean manners. The beautiful siapos,
hallowed by age-long usage, are dis
appearing more and more, their places
being taken by imported cloth. Wom-
en- and girls like to put on greater
quantities of European wearing ap-
parel.
In the vicinity of Apia native Sa-
moan house and kitchen utensils have
been replaced by European articles of
less worth. New foods are being in
troduced. Instead of taro, bananas
and vans, the natives now eat rice.
biscuits and bread, and even drink
coffee in the morning. The new foods
however have but limited number of
consumers al present.
The native huts were formerly COW
cred with thatches OF sugar cane. In
sects have destroyed the sugar-cane
plantations, and the natives now cover
their dwellings with corrugated iron,
which gives them much less protection
against the sun during the day and
against the cold at night. The Samo-
an house is disappearing, too, and its
place is being taken by square build
ings of American pine.
The total native population of the
Samoan group is about $4,000. There
are 1900 whites and half-castes.

HOW sLEUTHs MARK MONEY
Pinpricks Made In Certain Places on
Currency Gives Evidence That
Usually Convicts.

In their surveillance and apprehen-
sion of suspected persons government
secret service officers often find it
necessary to make the money han
died by such persons. There are va
rious methods of so marking the ma
tional currency, one of the most novel
of which is the pinprick.
The note to be marked is, say, the
S. silver certificate bearing the vi
gnette Of an Indian chief in his full re-
gala of feathers. and trappings and
presenting full-face view. With the
aid of pin the secret service man
makes two punctures in the bill di-
rectly in the pupils of the Indians
eyes. To the casual and sometimes
even critical inspector of the note
these pinpricks are invisible. If raised
to the light, however, the bill will
distinctly reveal them.
The markings are complicated by
the following process: The pinpoint
is applied in the twist" of the large
figure 5 at the two upper corners of
the note. These tiny twists do not ap-
pear in the "necks" of the two fig
ures that are at both ends of the
bottom of the note. The note is now
pierced again, this time in the ends
of the scrolls on each side of the word
five" in the lower center of the bill.
The marking is now complete. In Sc
cret it is exhibited to one or more per-
sons for purposes of Identification and
is then placed in the till or money
drawer to which the suspected person
has access.
It is said that the pinpricks will re-
main perfect for some time. When
such bills are produced in court and
their markings sre explained under
oath, conviction is practically certain.

the shoes and give them daily ex-
ercise in the yard every suitable day.
A grass pasture adjoining the sta
bles is a great convenience. The
stock may be turned in when the sod
is dry and the weather suitable; they
will get the exercise they need and
will keep warm by grazing. Most
stockmen provide winter as well al
summer pasture for their stock.
The driving horses, if used on icy
roads, should have shoes sharpened
1t is dangerous to drive smooth
horse when the road is icy. The wear
and tear of the nervous strain takes
too much out of horse, if nothing
more serious happens.
Chain overshoes can be had at the
agricultural stores. Keep pair on
hand to use in case of sudden
freeze.
Give the horses judicious feed, daily
exercise and good grooming When
this is done the horses usefulness
may be extended for number OF
years.

How Rainfall Affects Crops.

The enormous value of rainfall to
the agriculturist is set forth by E. J..
Cragoe in the Journal Of Geography.
He calculates that the increase in the
wheat crop in The Dakotas, California,
Washington, Kansas and Nebraska for
each inch Of rainfall above four
inches in May and June represents a
value of about $15,000,000. The fig
~ures for corn are more impressive;
one inch Of rainfall above three inches
in July in Indiana, Illinois, Kansas,
Iowa, Ohio and Nebraska. increases
the value of the crop by $160,000,000
Moreover, it was found that when the
July rainfall averaged less than S.4
inches the yield of corn averaged ten
bushels less to the acre than when it
was more than "A inches. This rep
resents an increased value of about
$3.50, 100000

Caught beneath a falling tree,
Thomas J. Todd, farmer, near Fed

from being crushed to death. He was
passing through woods on his farm
when large tree suddenly fell, knock
ing him down and pinioning him be

Realizing his perilous position, with
no help near, he reached in his pocket
and managed to get his knife. Lying
on his back, undergoing severe pain,
he cut down two saplipgs and with the
prongs of these, after an hours work,
succeeded in prying the tree off his
lower limbs far enough to let him
squeeze out.
He was brought to physician in
fredericksburg and his wounds dressed.

CANADA'S PLANS
FOR WAR REVENUE
SO Wisely Distributed That Tax
alton Will Affect Farmers to
a Degree Practically
UnnotiCeab!e.

So many rumors have been circu-
lated regarding war taxation in
Canada that the statement made by
Sir Thomas White. Canadian Minister
of Finance, of the Governments plans
for raising war revenue should be Civ
en- the widest circulation. Sir Thomas
made it clear that the revenue will be
raised by taxing the profits of incor-
pOrated companies whenever those
profits exceed seven per cent, and the
profits OF unincorporated firms or part
nerships when the profits exceed ten
per cent. On all such excess profits
these companies or firms will have to
contribute one-quarter, to the Govern
ment. Transportation companies,
banks, mining, milling, and other COM
panies will be subject to this taxation,
but life insurance companies, and COM
panies with less than fifty thousand
dollars capitalization, and companies,
firms, or individuals engaged in agri
culture or stock raising, are exempt,
and pay no part of this taxation. The
only other additional taxation pro-
posed is an increase of fifty cents a
barrel in the customs duty on apples.
and one-half cent gallon in customs
duty on certain kinds of oils.
1t will be noticed that this taxation
is being applied in such way that it
does not affect farmers in the slight
est degree, except, perhaps, through a
small increase in cost of apples and
oil. The war revenue is to be paid out
of the profits of the big firms and COM
panies with capital of over fifty thou
sand dollars. and even these are al.
lowed seven per cent in some cases,
and ten per cent IN others, of clear
profits before they have to pay any
part of this taxation 1t will be seen
that the whole policy is to place the
war expenditure taxation on those who
nave been making big profits and are
able to pay it, and to encourage farm
ing and stockraising by exempting
farmers and stock-raisers from the tax
alton. This ought to set at rest every
rumor that the farmer or the farmers
land is being taxed to pay the cost Of
the war.-Advertiseme

COMBATING Gas Fumes.

The armies of the allies are using
sponges or gauze soaked with some
solution to absorb the chlorine and
bromine gases employed by the Ger
mans in trench warfare. Ordinary
'.hypo,'' or sodium thiosulphate, is
widely used for this purpose and it
gives generally good results except
that the reaction between the hypo
and the chlorine or bromine liberates
some hydrochloric and sulphuric acid.
