Not the WhoIe Truth.

" have nothing against the Edin-
burgh people," said gentleman who
hied from the great outer world, "but
must say I've found greater fellow
feeling elsewhere. My hat blew away
on Saturday, and though everybody be-
side me took warm interest in It's
perambulations, nobody joined in pur-
suit"
"Eh, but ye wrong Edinburgh folk"
replied one of his hearers. ''D'ye ken
what l saw on Setterday? A mans
hat blew off just as cable ear wis
passin', and the driver stopped the car
and sprinted ava doom the road efter

The stranger said he really couldn't
and would chalk ii up TO Edinburghs

parted.

Do You Neglect
Your Machinery ?

The machinery Of the body needs to
be well oiled, kept in good condition
just as the automobile, steam engine or
bicycle. Why should the human neglect
his own machinery more than that of
his horse or his engine? Yet most peo-
pie do neglect themselves. To clean
the system at least once week Is to
practice preventive measures. You will
escape many ills and clear up the coat
ed tongue, the sallow complexion, the
dull headache, the lazy liver, If you will
take a pleasant laxative made up of
the May-apple, Juice Of the leaves of
aloes, root Of jalap, and called Pleasant

WORK AGAINST CALF SCOURS
On Every Farm Measures Should Be
Taken to Prevent This Disease
Many Animals Lost.

Thousands of calves are lost each
year by what is known as scours, says
III. III. Kildee, University of Minnesota.
On every farm measures should be
taken to guard against this disease,
which results from a deranged diges-
tive system.
Calves should have warm, clean,
light and well-ventilated pens. Milk
should be fed in regular amounts, at
regular times, at temperature of
about so degrees Fahrenheit, from
scrupulously clean pals. The foam
which accumulates on the milk while
it is being separated should never be
fed. The time to feed the grain ration
is Immediately after the milk is fed, SO
that the calves will not suck each 9TH
er's ears and thus take air into the
stomach, which causes bloat and pro-
duces scours. 1t is well to have stanch
ions in one side of the pen so that the
calves may be confined for a short
time after being fed milk.
Each day during the winter, when
the weather is favorable, the calves
need to be turned out into a sheltered
yard for exercise, which is necessary
for their proper growth and health.
1t is also very important that the
calves, from very early age, be CIV
en- all the pure, fresh water they care
to drink each day. The pens should
be disinfected frequently. Quicklime

each time it is cleaned and a frequent
spraying with some standard coal tar
dip solution will prove beneficial.

SWELL PRODUCTION OF HERD
Only Practical Way to Make Improve,
ment Is by Raising Heifer Calves
From Best Cows.

When the milk Is sold for market
milk, or to cheese factory, or a
milk condensery, the problem Is how
to raise calves without the feed cost
ing more than the value of the animal
raised. At the same time 1t is a most
serious mistake under these circum-
stances to depend upon buying cows
rather than raising calves. The only
practical way to improve the produc-
ton of the herd is by raising heifer
calves from the best cows. =
