Charm Is Necessary.

Nine. Sarah Bernhardt, the great
French actress, in signed article in
Harper's Bazaar, attributes the numer-
Gus divorces that have come into the
courts of late years to lack of charm
in the women concerned.
''If stood at the threshold of life,"
says Nine. Bernhardt, asking of it
something with which to buy happi-
ness, should beg for charm. For If
one has charm, she will be loved. And
a woman must have love to be happy.
Beauty does not matter. If woman
has charm she can secure whatever
she wants-love, success, power"
The divine Sarah also says that this
invaluable quality can be cultivated.

The conservation of farm animals is
a patriotic duty. Their demand and
value justify the most rigid means for
the determination of disease. Some
times we cannot prevent outbreaks of
live stock diseases on our farms, but
we can and should always use every
preventive measure and see that prop
er precautions are taken when the dis
ease first makes its appearance.

Joseph Pools mule died of anthrax,

Twelve hours elapsed, then very heavy
rains occurred and spread the germs
Of the disease. Another mule and four
hogs succumbed on the same farm.
Within 72 hours three hogs. two cows
and one horse died on the McTige farm

mules ut pasture one mile south on the
Carter farm died. Buzzards us car
riers Of the disease germs, were re-
sponsible for the deaths of the mules
in the latter case. Two days after
the first mule died Pool lost two cows
and three more hogs. Within a week
McTige lost 80 hogs, four cattle and
one horse. In the same period Pool
lost another mule and several more
hogs. His brother, on an adjoining
farm, lost one horse and two cows.
adjoining Pool, lost COW that had
been grazing in a nearby pasture, and
another one of Carter's mules became
sick but it recovered.
Within ten days of the first death
the live stock sanitary board in the
state quarantined the district, de-
stroyed hides that had been removed
from some of the animals and vacci-
mated all the animals on farms where
the disease had appeared and on neigh
boring farms with Pasteur double
anthrax vaccine and serum and spore
vaccine. Only two deaths * CATTLE
occur on neighboring farms after vac
'cination, and none on the other farms,
except the Mc'Tige place, where few
more hogs died. Some disinfection
was done, but primarily on account Of
the quarantine and thorough vacclna-
tion no other animals In the commu-
nifty died Of anthrax. This Is re-
markable record, but, had the first an
imal that died been disposed Of prop
efly by burning or by deep burial. the
disease would have been checked at
once.
