Watch for Anthrax.

Anthrax has broken out in several communities throughout the state and a number of animals have already died from this dreaded disease. Dr. R. M. Cow, state veterinarian with the Uni versity of Arkansas, and his staff of assistants have been making every eff fort to prevent the disease from spreading. However, they ask the as- sistance of farmers of the state to help keep it under control and desire anyone who hears of case to report it immediately.
 Remember, that it is dangerous to skin animals that have died from the disease and that three men nearly lost their lives last year by being infect ed in this manner. The best method to prevent the spread of anthrax among cattle and other livestock, as we'll as hog cholera, is to burn the carcasses of all animals that die from these infectious diseases. Every farmer should realize that there is a severe penalty for the violation of Act 173, passed by the last legislature and approved on March 9th. This Act provides for the burning of all ani- mals as soon as they die and makes it the duty of every owner to do the work.

TERRIBLY SWOLLEN
Suffering Described As Torture

Rossville, Ga.-Mrs. Kate Lee Able, of this place, writes: My husband is an engineer, and once while lifting, he in- INred himself with piece of heavy ma- chinery, across the abdomen. He was 70 sore he could not bear to press on himself at all, on chest or abdomen. He weighed l65 lbs, and fell off until he weighed no lbs, in two weeks.
 He became constipated and it looked like he would die. We had three different doctors, yet with all their medicine, his bowels failed to act. He would turn up ten-cent bottle of castor oil, and drink IL two or three days in succession. He did this yet without result. We became desperate, he suffered so. He was swol- len terribly. He told me his suffering could only be described as torture.
 Isent and bought Thedford's Black Draught. made him take big dose, and when 1t began to act he tainted, he was in such misery, but he got relief and began to mend at once. He got well, and we both feel he owes his life to Thedford's Black -Draught."

Range and Market News Items of Interest Pertaining the Livestock Industry Arizona
 Market Letter for the Past Week.
START WITH EVE LAMBS.

For inexperienced sheep raisers there are several important advanta- ges in purchasing eve lambs instead of mature breeding ewes. In the first place, says the United States Depart ment of Agriculture, the ewes of breeding age that offered for sale are mostly western ewes with a long wool cross, while the eve lambs com- ing from the west are mostly black faced lambs, thus showing a cross of some of the Down breeds, which is the kind of blood most farmers wish to have in their flocks. By buying such eve lambs one gets the advan- tage of starting with the first cross of the type to be used in grading up flock to the mutton type.
 Moreover, good breeding ewes are selling high. Lower prices are un- likely, as the demand is strong and the available supply is small. With probable high prices for mutton and wool in the future the farmer who un- derstands sheep and will properly care for them from the start has good prospects for success.
 While breeding stock is selling high the eve lambs can be bought at about $5 head less than breeding ewes. This is an important point in start ing flock, although until the lambs come to a breeding age no returns from the flock will be forthcoming except the wool clip. However, for the beginner in sheep husbandry, no better plan of obtaining experience could be adopted than in caring for a flock of eve lambs for a year. The experience gained in wintering eve lambs and managing the flock through the summer season would be invalu- able. ''.
 Investment in flock of eve lambs will give the advantage of the first cross of blood of the Down breeds, lower price, and necessary experience. The wool clip will at least offset the first years keep and the yearling ewes will be benefit to weedy pas lures next spring if moved frequently and not stocked so heavily as to eat the grass into the ground Those who contemplate going into sheer raising should consult Farmers Bull letin $40, Farm Sheep Raising for Beginners, which will be sent free on request from the Division of Pub lications, Department of Agriculture.
