Problem Of Pumpernlekel.

Is pumpernickel bread or cake?
This question is agitating legal and
commercial circles in Frankfort-on-the-
Main. If this delicacy is bread, its
sale is limited under the card system,
whereas If it is cake it may be sold
ad lib.
The police of Frankfort had been
trying to stop the sale of pumpernickel
without the necessary bread card,
but when a case was taken to court
the decision was to the effect that Il
was a delicacy and could be sold ac-
cordingly. But this didn't settle the
matter, as the authorities appealed the
case and declared they would keep on
arresting violators of the card rule.
The Frankforter Zeitung of Novem-
ber 30 says an exception is made in
the case of pumpernickel made from
flour sold at the government distribu-
tion stations especially for that pur
pose.

My lady's Leisure.

We are caught between an old ira
dition of married life, which insists
that a womans time is fully occu-
pied, and the new facts of married
life, which belle the tradition. If we
could forget the tradition and look
at the facts, our whole attitude would
change. AS it is, this large margin
of time, continually and increasingly
ours, is, as it were, theoretically non
existent. 1t has not yet received Off
cial recognition. Therefore, being
treated as something contingent and
accidental instead of something ex-
pected and calculahle, it has no dig
nifty, no Conference in its uses. 1t is
like the reading done in a doctors Of
flee while we wait. We are like chill
dren who receive frequent but unpre-
dictable gifts of pocket-money, yet are
given no stated allowance. The money
is spent as it comes-casually, without
special plan. 1t is the rare child who
will make such accidental fortune
serve any large ends. So it has been
with women's time. Having no the
oretic leisure and much actual leis-
ure, they have filled it with whatever
chances to importune most insistent-

Cause.

Overlooking, especially on foods
that are too rich, or too heavy in
their proportions of starch and fat
producing elements. are largely re-
sponsible for liver trouble. Hens that
are very fat are especially subject to
some form of liver trouble and careful
feeding must be looked too largely as
d preventive of such disorders. Lack
Of exercise is also often very impol,
tant contributing cause. Birds that
are confined to small! runs. that do not
have enough green food and that are
not given sufficient exercise are the
most likely to contract troubles of
this nature.
Many tlocks today are being practi-
cally ruined through careless feed
ing, and its attendant development of
liver diseases. In many instances,
proper corrective measures will re
store the diseased organ to a fairly
healthy condition, but far too often
changes are not rigidly enforced in
attempting treatment, or else these
efforts are not continued over a suffi-
Gent length of time. and this results
IN but slight improvement.
The causes which have led to the
diseased condition have often been
acting for a long time. and it is only
reasonable to expect that any i'm
provement in the birds is going to be
slow.

there can be no question.
Calves are taken from their moth
ers Immediately after they are born
on the pretext that a cows milk is
too valuable for cows calf. These
calves, in case it happens to be in the
vicinity of a large city, are often sold
by calf buyers to people in the lower
districts for bob-veal Those that are
not sold to calf buyers are raised on
skim milk and if they do not die of
"scours they become runty and badly
stunted in their growth.
AS general thing this practice is
to be condemned. The farmer and
dairyman are saving at the spigot and
wasting at the bung. They must now
pay $75 for a good COW and have none
to sell.
Every time wessit down to the din
ner table we are paying the price for
this short-sightoN policy One thing
is sure. if we kill all our calves it is
only a question of time until We will
have no cows

Treatment.

Treatment for diseases Of the liver
consists largely in correcting the mis-
takes that have been responsible for
the trouble and no remedy can pos
sibly take the place of the proper
feeding and handling of the afflicted
individuals. If the case is one Of long
standing or if there is anything to in
dictate that the liver is badly diseased,
1T is best not to attempt treatment
because a complete recovery is very
uncertain.
In the milder cases give free range
II possible, or at least provide good
sized run in grass, and then let the
birds pick up most of their living.
Feed mashes sparingly, and in giving
grains see that they are placed in a
litter so as to induce exercise. Give
each bird a liver pill every other day
for week or use EPSON salts in the
drinking water for a while. When
there is indigestion or bowel trouble
give remedy suitable for correcting
this.

Dress Percentage Of Farm Animals
(By W. H. Peters, North Dakota Ex-
pertinent Station),

(By w. H. Peters, North Dakota Ex-
pertinent Station).
The average dressing percentage of
hogs is rs while of cattle it is 53 and
OF sheep as. Part of this difference is
due to the method of figuring. In the
case of the hog the hide. head and feet
are included in the carcass weight,
while in the case of cattle and sheep
the head. hide and feet are not in
cluded. Then the hog is very thick
heshed and has a small digestive sys-
TEN. Cattle and sheep have large
paunches and digestive systems.
Sheep dress out lowest due to the
wool and the rather light feshing of
the carcass.
The dressing percentage of animals
Of each class varies widely. This is
due to the amount of flesh, especially
fat present on the carcass and some
what to the thickness of the hide and
size of the heads and legs, and to the
amount Of fill or the amount of feed
and water present in the digestive
tract at the time Of slaughtering. For
the hogs the dressing percentage var
les from IS to IS per cent with an
average of rs. For cattle it ranges
from Al to 70 per cent with an aver
age of SO and for sheep from A to Sc
rer cent with an average of 48 per
cent

symptoms.

The great difficulty in overcoming
troubles of the liver is that the symp.
toms are slow to appear and often
misleading, the result being that the
diseases are frequently discovered too
late to apply an effective remedy. The
fancier, or careful poultryman VINO
watches his flock closely. is able to
detect these symptoms, but with the
ordinary market poultryman the dis
ease is liable to be well advanced be-
fore the need of a remedy becomes
apparent.
Usually the comb and wattles show
:, lack Of color, gradually changing to
dark red or purple; there is loss of
appetite and the bird is sluggish. In
Jaundice the skin takes on a yellow
ish hue. and this is also indicated in
the comb and wattes. The disease is
commonly attended by watery diar-
rhea dark in color, gradually chang
ing to yellow cast.
A post mOrten examination usually
shows the liver to be greatly enlarg-
ed. though occasionally it may be
smaller than normal. Sometimes the
liver is congested with blood. or mar
red or spotted with blood, depending
upon the form the disease has taken.
Other internal diseases, especially of
the aimentary canal may also be
noted in connection with diseased
condition of the liver.

DISEASES OF THE LIVER
By G.. L. CONKEY.

In fowls, as in human beings, the
liver is one of the largest organs OF
the body and is likewise one of the
most important. 1t prepares the bile
which plays such an important part
in digestion and it assists in some of
the most necessary chemical changes
in the blood.
Passing through the numerous
blood vessels of the liver is a great
volume of blood and this necessarily
makes this organ particularly liable
to attack by various parasites. The
minute capillary vessels make a fav-
orable lodging place for these para
sites. where they multiply and begin
their disease producing action.
Among the more common liver af-
fections are cholera bacteria, tuber-
culosis bacillus, black-head protocol
(turkeys) and aspergillosls fungus.
These variously cause congestion. in
fiammation and death of the tissues.
The principal diseases of the liver,
aside from those of parasitic origin.
are Congestion. Infammation-called
Hepatitus, Atrophy-or wasting of
the liver, Jaundice, and Fatty Degen-
GRAFTON. All of these We shall class
under the head of liver troubles, since
many of the symptoms are practically
identical and the method of treatment
in the various disorders is much the
same

According to program, the dining
room opened promptly at $50. The
greater number Of guests, however,
did not take their seats until well on
toward 500 O'Clock For more than
two hours doormen were busy with

up TO the main entrance Of the hotel
and deposited their burdens Of gen.
tlemen in evening dress and hand

efforts o. the welltrained force Of

guests. Automobiles were packed in
two solid rows along the boulevard
and Clarendon approach.
Dinner proved to be a sumptuous
