USE OF BACTERIAL VACCINE
Vaccination as Preventive for stranaIes
and Distemper Being Extensively
Employed.

The vaccination of horses as a pre-
ventive for strangles or distemper is
being extensively employed. 1t has
been found that the cause of the dis
ease warrants the use of a bacterial
vaccine. This gives assistance to ma
lures own efforts of protection and
forms the logical means of preventing
strangles as well as other diseases
caused by specific organisms.
The outcome of the vaccination Of
horses has in some instances been dis
appointing. 1t is possible that in such
cases the bacteria has deteriorated or
become Ineffective, or that the results
are complicated by secondary infec-
tons. In the latter case it is advisable
to use bacterins that will combat the
secondary infections. These are called
mixed bacterins, and contain a vari-
ETY. of killed bacteria commonly en-
cOuntered in such diseases.
In case distemper appears, all
healthy animals should be Immediately
injected with streptobacterins. The
administration of bacterial vaccines
should be made by competent veter-
marian, as improper administration
may not provide proper protection and
so result in Irregularities. Bacterins
can be obtained from manufacturers
OF various biological products.

STRAW TOO PRECIOUS
TO BE THROWN AWAY
May Be Used in Feed Ration for
Horses, Sheep and Rougher
Cattle With SiIage.

(By F. W. Peck, University Farm, st.
Paul, Mimi
Burn no straw this fall.
Every ounce Of straw Is always of
value, and this year 1t will be Of
greater value than usual.
1t is needed for live stock, because
the roughage crop is short.
Straw may be used In the feed ra-
ton for horses sheep and rOugher
cattle with silage and small amount
of grain. This cheapens the ration
and saves good hay and grain for 9TH
err uses.
plentiful, also increases the amount Of
manure to be applied to the soil. Less
Of the fertility elements In liquid
manure are lost and bedding with
more costly material is made unneces-
sary. The stock are made more COM
Portable and hence more productive.
The fertility value at normal prices of
the fertilizer elements amounts to
about So ton for wheat straw and
81 ton for oat straw. At present
abnormal prices this is increased sew
eral times. At least 70 per cent Of
this should be saved by proper con-
ServatiOn.
Threshing straw in the barn or ball
ing it before unsettled weather comes
are excellent ways of preserving.
Otherwise straw should be stacked
where 1t will be easily accessible for
winter use. Not an ounce of straw
should be burned this fall.

FATTENING RATION IN IOWA
BY Reducing Corn and Increasing
silage Rapid Gains Were Made
With Less Expense.

Silage has cheapened the fattenlng
ration for steers In Iowa. One lot, re-
celvlng each per day II pounds shelled
corn, 20 pounds silage, 2 pounds oil
meal and IL pounds alfalfa, made
gains at a cost Of $9.57 while another
lot, receiving 81 pounds corn, 81
pounds silage, pounds oil meal and
III pounds alfalfa, made gains at a
cost of $7.67. The first lot averaged
2.94 pounds gain per day while the
second lot averaged 3.O4 pounds.
Reducing the corn and increasing the
ensilage increased the gains and cut
down the cost Of making gains.-North

the inland villages of Scotland. After
finishing the discourse" he leaned
over the pulpit and engaged In silent
prayer, an act which surprised the
congregation, who were unaccustomed

turning around he beheld the deacon,

The straight line is an abomina-
ton to the Chinese. They endeavor
to avoid it in their streets and build
ings, and have banished it completely
where country field paths are con-
cerned. They will always substitute
curve wherever possible or they
will torture it with zigzag. To the
Chinese mind the straight line is sug-
gestive of death and demons.

Mouth Decorations.

. 1t is amazing how ideas of beauty
vary with latitude and longitude. In
Japan, the professional beauty loves
to appear with golden teeth, in India
she prefers them stained red, but in
certain parts of Sumatra no lady who
respected herself would condescend to
have any front teeth at all. They are
removed the moment they appear, and
strictly suppressed if they should try
lgain.
