CARE OF
THE colt

The early troubles Of the foal are
apt to be naval ill, constipation and
scours. Naval ill seems to be caused
by germs that get9into the body thru
the naval cord at birth. To guard
against it have the colt dropped in a
clean stall or pasture. Then the ma
val cord should be cut. Off about two
inches from the bodysif it has not al
ready been broken that close Of closer,
q string dipped in a mild disinfectant
tied about the end of the cord and the
cord painted over with a mixture COM
posed of one part of the tincture of
iodine and three parts Of glycerine
once a day till it dries of. The udder
should be rinsed off with a week dis
infectant too before the colt is allowed
to suck.
The first milk or colostrum is lax
alive and usually cleans the digestive
tract within six or eight hours. If the
bowels do not move a laxative Of two
ounces Of castor oil can be given and a
couple Of ounces Of warm water with
q little gylcerine injected into the rec
tum. II is hard to determine what
causes scours or diarrhoae in each
individual case but the common causes
are changes in the composition Of the
mares milk due to nervousness, over
work Or change in feed, allowing the
colt to gorge itself from the full udder
Of a mare that has become quite warm
from overwork and from filth in the
food. III
When the colt is four weeks old it
will begin to eat a little grain; whole
oats are the best. The colt should have
q chance to nurse every two or three
hours until it is about three months
old. T1isis also for the good Of the
mare, as her udder will fill in about
three hours and If the colt does moi
nurse or the mare MIXED there is dan
ser that the udder will become dam.

The time-honored custom of sitting

mes of manufacturing automobiles.
Motor car makers have gained .recog-

During the present serious famine
in freight cars, perhaps no other IN
|dustry has been harder hit. With the
new models announced and orde-s
pouring into the factories from all
parts Of the country, the problem Of
getting the ears into the hands of
dealers has been one that taxed the
genius and originality of the most YER
satile manufacturer. Cattle cars, gon-
dolas and flat cars have been use;i to
ship trainload after trainload Of new
automobiles from the Detroit factor
les; but now even the privilege Of
communicating these rather c."de

denied motor car manufacturers. The

necessities have tied up these cars Of,

Edith Storey, Girl
 of the Golden West
Vitagraph's Versatile Star De-
 lighted Over Opportunity of Again Mounting Steed-Tues.

Many movie fans remember Edith Storey of the Vitagraph Company as the dashing cowgirl of former days. Recently this versatile star has played roles with drawing rooms for her background, and her public has almost forgotten how vivacious and real she used to be on the backs of frisky bronchos.
 Once more, however, Miss Storey ap pears on the screen on horseback. In Money Magic" the Blue Ribbon Fea- ture which Miss Storey journeyed to California to play in, and which is the attraction at the Gem Theatre on Tuesday, her many friends once again catch her bounding over country roads on frisky colt.
 While she is by no means a cowgirl Tn this film, nevertheless she proves that she has not forgotten how to ride, and Antonio Moreno, athlete that he is finds it difficult to keep her pace in the riding scenes.
 "Oh, it is good to be on horseback amid the majestic old hills once more the little star declared when she mount ed her steed for the first time. q don't know how 1 managed to be hap | py playing other roles for such long while. This does seem good, and hope that it won't be the last time have an opportunity to dash out of a scene as though really was alive and not a modiste's model"
 No doubt her many friends will feel the same way about it when they view her clever characterization in this un- usual photoplay, where she is cast to such excellent advantage with Antonio Moreno and William Duncan. Although Miss Storey wears gowns to excellent advantage, she is far more contented performing some risky stunt | than she could ever manage to be in a society tea-room. That perhaps ac- counts for her glowing face and spark ling eyes in this feature production for without any doubt she was glad to return to the Golden West even though it meant leaving her new home and her many, many friends in the eastern studios of the Vitagraph Company.

Proper illustration.

It is mistake. ayers the Illuminat- ing Engineer Society, to use bright light against a dark background, and while an artistic fixture is well enough as Il decoration, yet lamps which in themselves are good and suitable will not be satisfactory from a hygienic standpoint unless the fixtures are in the right position. In planning the il- lumination of room it is only com mon sense to determine just what you are going to use that room for, and then to arrange the lighting. By do- ing this 1t should be possible for peo- pie of middle age to add years of ex- cellent eyesight which otherwise would soon diminish. Where children of various ages are in family the matter of artificial light is of great i'm portance. The general health of a growing boy or girl may be seriously affected by careless lighting, especial ly in rooms where they read or study their lessons.

,,ccrsTIONS FOR CONTROL sOIu oF SWEET POTATO DIS

some of the worst sweet potato

Is.tood % into the woods, if possible, .nd throw off six inches of the sur f.ce and take subsoil. Sand will do ;nst as well. If soil can not be ob- ..;nod from the woods, it may be .olsr from a new field where sweet rotatoes have not been grown before.
 It is essential also that the frame ,vort of the hotbed be disinfected by snraying with solution made by ad- dino one pint of formalin to 30 gal Inns of water. Similar results may be obtained by whitewashing th9 frame work. Better still, spray with winter strength lime-sulphur solu- tiOn
 In the spring before being bcdded inc potatoes should be disinfected by immersng for from , to 10 minutes in solution of corrosive sublimate, made by dissolVing one ounce of the crystals in gallons of water. This is deadly poison. Use with great care. Treated seed should not be left where animals can reach it. Only wooden containers should be used for dsinfection. After dsiinfection the potatoes should be immediately rins- ed in pure water and dried or bedded at once
 Just enough of the solution should be put in the barrel or receptacle used for dsinfecting to cover the quantity of potatoes to be immersed each time. The solution should not be used more than three times, since it loses its strength and effectiveness

upon repeated use.
 After the potatoes are disinfected, any showing evidence of disease, either on the surface or at the end, should be thrown out. Frequently it is in these bruised, calloused and de- cayed spots that the disease germs are concealed. It should be remem- bered that the disinfecton is to kill the germs loose on the surface of the potato and that the treatment does not kill the germs concealed in the decayed, bruised and calloused spots on the surface and at the end.
