Is TALK CHEAP? NO

Washington, March 2.-Oratory in
Congress has increased to such an
extent thai the volume of debate in
the last nine years constitutes one
third OF the 10000 pages of the
Congressional Record issued since
publication was begun forty-three
years ago.
The statement shows that the high
water mark was reached in the Sixty
third Congress, when 31,216 pages
were used, as against S,432 in the
Forty-third Congress. The record
of the Sixty-third made thirty-one g.
inch volumes, which, laid one on top
OF the other, would make a pile near
ly nine feet high. The quantity of
product the official reporters of de-
bates turn out in the House is now
three times as great as il was when
that reporting corps was established
in 1875.

WEAVING COLTS.

A colt may be weaned, and the
mother dried up so gradually that IL
will scarcely know when il is done, by
extending the time they are kept
apart, in the meantime supplying the
colt with whatever it will eat with a
relish, being careful all the time to
keep the bowels and kidneys work
ing freely by the use Of boiled oats,
scalded bran mash, little oil meal,
fresh grass, etc. And do not forget
that nature supplied a large amount
OF sugar in the mothers milk. and
this supply ought to be kept up by
the use OF sugar or sweet apples.

WHAT TO DO FOR THE HORSE.

A good grooming costs no money,
and is equal to two quarts OF oats.
Keep your horses feet soft, and
have him shod often. More feet are
ruined in the stable than on the road.
Humanely destroy the WORKOUT,
incurably lame horse. II you sell
him, the money that you receive is
blood money.
Punctuality in feeding and water
ing the horses is very important.
They will worry and lose flesh II kept
waiting beyond the regular time.
If the hoof is kept supple and elias
tic by soaking, there will be much
less trouble from foot lameness,
which starts because OF a dry, con-
tracted hoof that has no elasticity

THE THIRD LOAN
Government Calls For Another Three
Billion Loan.

Washington, March 1.-On April 6
the first anniversary OF the United
States entry into the war, the third
Liberty Loan will open. There will
be a campaign Of three or four weeks.
In announcing the date tonight
Secretary McAdoo said the amount
of the loan, the interest rate and 9th
er features such as convertibility OF
bonds of previous issues, maturity
and terms OF payment, are yet to be
determined, and that new legislation
will be necessary before plans can be
completed.
Details Not Complete.
The fact that the amount Of the
loan is dependent on further legisla-
tion indicated that it will be for more
than SO, 600, zoo, zoo, the remainder of
authorized but unissued bonds, and
the fact that certificates of indebted
ness now being sold in anticipation Of
the loan bear Az per cent, affords
some indication of the interest rate
How large the loan shall be de-
ponds largely, however, on the fate
of the pending war finance bill carry
ing an appropriation of half billion
dollars, and action on the railroad
bill, with its appropriation of a SINH
lar amount.
Demonstration Asked.
Although Mr.. McAdoo made no spe-
cific announcement, it is now taken
for granted in official circles that
there will be but one more lean be-
fore June 3O,the end of the fiscal
year.
The statement concerning the date
of the campaign was made at this
time, Secretary McAdoo explained, to
give every community time to pre-
pare for the big bond sale, and he
strongly advocated popular demon
STATIONS of patriotism on the day of
the opening of the loan and the sec
ond year of the war.
The campaign should begin with
great demonstrations of patriotism in
every city, town and hamlet in the
country that will truly express the
spirit of aroused America. On this
date every American should pledge
anew to his government the full
measure of his resources and resolve
to make every required sacrifice in
the same fervent spirit that impells
orr gallant sons in the trenches in
France and on the waters of the At
lsntic to shed their blood in Ameri-
ca s sacred cause" said Mr.. McAdoo.

WORLDS SHIP SUPPLY 20
PER CENT BELOW NORMAL

The Food Administration estimates
the total number OF ocean-goine
vessels now afloat at 10000, having
a gross tonnage of 100000 tons
Losses of shipping during the wal
have totalled about S,7S3,0SO tons
and the supply of ships is about 20
per cent short OF normal.
Shipbuilding in France has been
at a standstill since the beginning of
the war; England's output is less
than normal; Japan is hampered by
lack of material; the American ship
supply is only beginning.
