PREVENT DISEASE IN STOCK
Sanitation and Good Feeding Methods
Help Reduce Losses-keep Meat
Animals Healthy.

Proper feeding and sanitation are
two important preventives Of disease
losses in farm animals. If carefully
applied these measures may prevent
many losses of meat animals. Keep
the animals sturdy and disease-resist-
ant by feeding a good, wholesome
diet Young animals need particular
care and should be kept growing. A
balanced ration should be fed-one
that contains enough digestible pro-
tein to supply the needs Of bone and
muscle growth.

for several sources is az fol-
lows: Save the glass and

send them to the women on

On account of the expected
shortage in tin cans, it is sug-
gested that all commercial
canneries. girls canning clubs
and others promptly assure
themselves Of an adequate
supply of containers. The
conservation of glassand stone

japan Taking our Gold.

Treasury officials engrossed in
the far reaching programme of
international financing upon
which the country lately has en-
tered, have turned their chief at
tention 10 the unexpected and
somewhat disconcerting discov-
cry that for the past month ia
pan has been withdrawing gold
from the United States at the
rate of $l5o,0oo,Ooo to 5000, ,o0o-
900 a year.
Gold exports to Japan within
the past three or four weeks, it
is stated, have been between
SlO,OO0.OOO and SIS, 100000.
Since January they have totaled
$35, 100000. Within the next
80 days, the government has been
informed they will approx mate
50 per cent Of the entire sum
already exported in 1917.
The mystery is more economic
chan political it is said, and
there is nowhere apparent any
disposition to question the mo
tives of the government or citi
zens of Japan in withdra wing all
the gold to which they are entit-
led. At the same time it is
realized that heavy exports of
gold from this country is highly
undesirable.
There are a number of reas
ons why Japan might have adopt
ed her programme of Withdrawing
gold from this country. She is
prospering under war condi-
tions, and with the United
States is a creditor nation.
Russia is known to have gone in
