THERE IS PLENTY OF PEP IN
WATCH YOUR STEP"

Syncopation, pretty girls, wonderful
costumes, delightful dances and song
hits that you will hum in spite OF
yourself-there you have a few of the
ingredients in the merry melange of
melody and mirth, Watch Your Step,
which was presented at the Theatre
Vendome last night.
This is mi musical comedy which
is deserving of the name and every
thing else that can be said of it, for
it is a merry, happy fox trot from be-
ginning to end, with song hit follow
ing song hit and making it difficult for
one to keep his feet still. It has the
punch, the pep, the kick and every
thing else that goes toward putting
a musical comedy across.
There is a very thin plot in the play
a. a beginner, but it soon is lost, ana
the audience is given a treat in sing
ing, dancing and reveling in a bevy of
beautiful women such as have rarely
been seen on any stage. 1t is a hand
somely gowned, perfectly trained cho-
rus, and there is no scarcity of them
on account Of the war. They are there
in quality as well as quantity.
Hannah Leach doesn't sound like a
perfectly gorgeous and wonderful
dancer, but on the other hand is more
like a demure miss in a village with
a p~oke-bonnet on her shoulders. But
Hannah Leach is the name of a dancer
who will long be remembered by those
who witnessed Watch Your Step last
night. She was forced to repeatedly
respond to encores, with her partner,
DIN Rowland. And, speaking Of dane
ers, this Olin boy is a bird. He invent
ed all Of the dances that were put on,
and they were developed from good
into better and from better into best.
Hazel Boyne did little more than
look pretty and act cute, but she per-
formed her part to a queens taste, and
the audience was satisfied. Golf Phil
lips put on a blackface speciality, in
GLIDING q curtain talk, which was
great.
Harry Bestry as a matinee idol pos
sesses n Of the best voices of the
entire company, and his efforts more
than pleased. He responded many
times to encores. An especial feature
and without a doubt the best, is the
dancing of Miss Leach and Mr.. How
land, and their popularity was mark
ed by tremendous applause on their
every appearance.
Watch Your Step is a musical COM
edy about which too much cannot be
said, for it is the most delightful of
all the comedies which have appeared
here this season 1t is being presented
afternoon, and to-night's show
will conclude the Nashville engage
ment.-Nashville Banner, Jan. TO-,

This splendid attraction will be at

SUCCESSFUL FEEDER
REQUIRES PRUDENCE
Missouri Farmer Tells How Sheep
Gains Are Made-USe of
Brains Essential.

Mr.. G. G. Starr of Missouri, who
buys and feeds several thousand lambs
each year, in a talk to Missouri sheep
feeders at the University Of Missouri
said:
'To be a successful feeder requires
more use of brains than any other line
of agriculture.
"The successful feeder must be on
the watch for things to happen in the
pens.
Care in being punctual with break
fast for lambs will do wonders.
"The greatest trouble we have in
feeding is to induce u partners and
customers to feed plenty.
lambs really do best in dry lots
when the feeding begins too late to
use green blades of corn and grass.
They have a disposition to wander, and
will not stay with the feed unless more
or less closely confined.
Enough troughs should be provided
for grain feeding so that all can get all
the grain they desire.
"The water should always be fresh
and clean /; have plenty Of 1t in enough
troughs so that sheep can easily drink.
"Plenty of corn is always needed.
Cottonseed meal is very useful, espe-
cially when silage is used. A pound
of silage per head per day is about
enough"

Exercise promotes healthy body ac-

Internal fat to accumulate, causes con-

sows by placing at least part Of the
feed Mt the far end of the pen or lot,
causing them to walk to and from the

Proper are at narrowing time will
pay the highest dividends. The num-
Der Of pigs raised to weaving time is
the basis of computing the value of
a sow. Sows should be fed immedi-
ately before narrowing the ration that
she will receive after narrowing. This
will prevent any indigestion due to a
sudden change in diet.
A few days before the calendar time
of narrowing put her in the pen where
she Is to farrOw and cut down on her
feed. If feed has been laxative the
sow will come to narrowing time with
little fever and in a good condition.
The pen must be warm enough for
the pigs, but not hot, as Is sometimes
the case, because this only tends to
increase the fever and temper of the
SOW.
After narrowing, do not feed for
the first "a hours, giving only clean
water. Her first meal should be a
thin slop or bran mash. Gradually in.
crease the amount until she Is on full
feed about ten days after narrowing.
Remember that for many weeks we
are feeding the young pigs through
their mother, and any Irregularities in
her system are quickly indicated in
the young.

Cleveland Makes Claim.

According to the 1915 government
census, Cleveland leads all other cit
les in the production of motorcar parts
which are assembled in other cities
into complete cars. At present over
80 manufacturers of car parts are To-
Gated in Cleveland, and the Cleveland
chamber of commerce, which has been
very active of late inducing motor in
dustries to locate in Cleveland, has es-
timated that from 20 to IS per cent
of the parts used in the middle West
manufacturing section are manufac-
tured in the Cleveland district. These
include drop forgings, sheet aluminium,
sheet steel, frames, bearings, leather,
paints, varnishes, etc. To these might
be added various accessories, such as
batteries, spark plugs and lamps.

NOW USING AUTOS
Nomads Are Beginning to Discard the
Horse, Their InseparabIe Com.
panion for Centuries.

Even gypsles are abandoning horses
for motors. A band of about forty of
these nomads visited Columbus, o.,
last summer, travelling in three covered
automobiles which had been purchased
a short time before. The leader of the
gypsies said that the cost of the
cars was $1,000, $1,000, and $3.50, re-
spectively. Each motor was fitted up
in true gypsy fashion, and portions Of
the tops were painted in the bright
colors characteristic of the familiar
gypsy wagons. In all, three families
inhabited the three cars. The sage of
the group was a m s~eventy-five
years old; the youngest of the chill
dren was three months old.-Popular

EXERCISE CARE IN
MATCHMAKING HOGS
Animals Excessively Fat Are Not
Good Risks-Points to Be
Given Consideration.

tBy o. s. CRISLER, Kentucky Expert
ment Station.)
When shoats or pigs are heavily in
fected with worms, vaccination may
result in considerable loss.
Hogs that are excessively fat are not
rs good risks for vaccination as ami
mails in medium condition.
Farmers must provide proper care
Of hogs before and after treatment tC
reduce the risk to a minimum.
Many of the undesirable results fol.
lowing vaccination are due to the con
dition Of the hogs, or to the surround
lngs under which they are kept.
The following points in hog manage
ment should be carefully considered:
1. Ascertain beyond a doubt whether
or not cholera is present in the herd
2. Animals stand the excitement and
shock Of vaccination better If the in
testinal tract is empty; if free from
parasites; if in medium flesh; If kept
cool during the operation and con-
fined in q clean, ~disinfected stall, bed
ded with straw while awaiting the In
lection of serum.
3. The point of incubation must be
thoroughly cleaned and disinfected.
The animals must not be allowed ac-
cess to dirty, filthy wallows before or
after treatment. 1t is impossible to
clean a dirty hog with a small amount
of antiseptic so that serum can be in
jected with any degree Of cleanliness.
Assesses are most often the result Of
the flthiness of the hogs and not to
any fault Of the operator who employs
proper precautions with his syringe
and serum.
4. There must be a clean, dust-free
Enclosure for the hogs at the time of
incubation.
8. Following vaccination hogs must
be kept in clean quarters for at least
two days. Dirty wallOws should be
avoided. A good plan is to keep hogs
in a well-bedded stable. The feed
should be laxative in nature. Losses
sometimes follow vaccination in the
winter months because animals are
placed in damp, filthy quarters.
6. Great care Is employed in prepar-
ing pure, potent serum. There is lit
tie risk in injecting good serum into
hogs that are properly prepared for
the operator and properly cared for
following 1t.

ration, and the nutrients of the feed
should include protein material such
as is found in alfalfa, skim milk and
tankage. Mineral matter, especially
phosphorus, and lime are required,
the latter being plentiful in alfalfa.
Ground oats will help the ration both
for mineral and protein content. 1t
Is the protein and mineral matter that
Is highly essential to the development
of the young. Avoid co%nstipating
feeds or feeds likely to produce in
ternal fat. Keep the ration moderate
ly bulky and avoid any radical feed
changes late in the pregnancy period.
No class of animals suffers more
from extremes of heat and cold than
hogs. For this reason, brood sows
should be provided with good shelter,
but this does not necessarily mean

Germany Uses Steel Tires.

"Steel tires for motorcars are now
being used in Germany because of the
scarcity of rubber" according to the
Iron Age. ''They consist of dozens of
fine steel threads woven together and
fixed over an inner band of rubber.
After running about $500 miles the
steel cover is worn out and has to be
replaced. The rubber inner tube re-
mains intact. 1t is stated that the eff
feet of the steel tires is to retard the
speed and make the riding rough"

(By o. B. BENTLEY, Colorado Agricul-
tural College. Fort Collins. Colo.)
AS February draws to a close, hog
men look forward to n of the most
important times Of the year, In fact
the most critical time as concerns the
profits or losses from the years work.
Where the hogs are concerned a large
percentage Of pigs narrowed In the
early spring means greater prospects
for the market in the early fall.
Proper management Of the brood
sow before and after narrowing is
very important. Investigations show
that 80 to 80 per cent of all the dry
matter of the unborn litter are de-
posted in the uterus during the last
60 days of pregnancy sc that our care
must include this period and feeding
must be done accordingly.
The ratlons should be increased at
least 80 per cent over the wintering

PROFIT IN SHEEP BUSINESS
State Of Nebraska Made Money by
Buying Flock and Letting Them
Craze on Fair Grounds.

The state of Nebraska went into the
sheep business last year and made
money in it. The state board of agri-
culture purchased 239 ewes in April to
Craze on the state fair grounds and
keep down weeds and grass. Usually
it has cost the state several hundred
dollars to keep the grounds trimmed,
and this year not a dollar was paid out
and the grounds were in excellent
shape.
These ewes cost $1,S57.15 laid down
at the fair grounds. Not more than
$50 was paid for feed during the sum-
mer and the shearing cost $2S.32. The
wool clip netted $439.52, and the flock
sold in the fall for $2,295.
