WORMS ARE CHIEF
ENEMY OF SHEEP
Sheep Not UnduIy Susceptible To
Disease-Most Abnormal Condl.
tions Due To Worms.

There Is popular belief chat
sheep are subject 10 number OF dis
eases of rather difficult Identification.
This is not true, says G. P. Williams,
sheep and goat specialist, Extension
Division, Louisiana State Universi "
Aside from occasional attacks Of in
digestion brought about by sudden
changes to succulcnt forage, damage
done by stomach worms is practical
ly the only abnormal condition met
with in Louisiana that the farmer
could not have diagnosed by careful
examination.
Occasionally sheep have been neg.
lected and half starved, and this con
! dition is mistaken for disease. In
two or three parishes sheep have
sore feet, but this trouble may easily
be identified by the farmer If he will
examine the hoof, which will bs
found with loose horn and sensitive
sole. Grub in the head is most com
mon. most sheep have them, lik
cows have MARBLES. Neither grub
in the head nor MARBLES in the bacl
/ kill the animals.
When sheep are in bad condition
and no external symptoms indlcat
the cause of the trouble, then IN
owner should by all means suspec
worms and take measures to expe
them from his sheep.

CHURCHES TO AID
VICTORY LOAN BY
SERMONS ON may 4
Il Will Be a Thanksgiving Loan" In
Recognition Of This Country's
Happiness And The Re-
turn Of Peace

Sunday, May 4, has been designated
all over the United States as Victory
Loan Sunday, when every pastor Of
every denomination Is asked to dis.
ouss from the pulpit the Victory Loan
campaign and urge upon their hearers
such Investments in the Victory Loan
as they can undertake.
It has been the observe ton of those
prominent in former Liberty Loan
campaigns that the churches have had
enormous influence In furthering sub
scriptions. And there is every reason
why this should be so. Lending to
ones country is something more than
business investment. 1t is a patri.
otic obligation and surely Patriotism
q deep regard for ones homeland-is
form of religion.
The Victory Loan is also being call.
ed the Thanksgiving Loan and sure.
ly it is a fitting designation Think
of the boys who have come back home,
alive and well, with the enemy van.
lQuished, the battles over! Think Of
peaceful America, its people prosper.
lous, it's children happy and we'll nour
ished, it's lands safe from the inva.
sion of foe; and compare our situa.
ton with that of starving Russia and
Poland, with Germany torn by Red
revolution; with victorious France still
bleeding from the scars Of horrible
war. Think of the heavy taxation
which must for years burden the peo.
pile of Europe, victors ard vanquished
alike. And then compare our situation
herewith our government asking
only that we lend what we can spare
, with gilt-edged security and liberal in
terest. Certainly, we can afford to
call this a Thanksgiving Loan, and
prove our thankfulneSs by liberal in
vestments. There is not father who
has seen his boy come home, or who
] has learned that he is safe overseas
who can afford TO cheat himself of hi!
share in this-the last Of the govern
ment loans-which will pay the wa
bill and finish the job

4,523,543 Attend.

If every man, woman and child IN
the state of Texas, plus the entire
population of New Orleans, La, were
to unite in going to church on one
Sunday the mobilization would still be
less than the attendance at religious
meetings in the Army Y. NJ. G. A.
buildings in the Southern department
from May, 1917, to December 81, 1913.
The total attendance at 24,7OO such
meetings in the "Y" huts was 4,523'343'
according to figures compiled by the
religious work department Of the Army
Y NJ. c. A. at San Antonio, Tex.
At these meetings 74,457 soldiers re-
ouested prayers-a number greater
than the population of Oklahoma City.
The number of Christian decisions
made by these soldiers was 69,929-
more than the number of people in 81
paso, Tex. Christian purpose re-
newed by soldiers at such meetings
reached the big total Of 66,581.
The number Of personal Christian
interviews which the "Y" secretaries
were able to have with the men as
they visited the buildings was 31S,248
or equal to the combined populations
Of Dallas, Fort Worth and Houston
Tex. These secretaries also secured
from the men a number of other for
ward-step decisions, including the fol
lowing: To read the. Bible, Ill 1,163; tt
pray, 34,O97; temperance, 1885; anti
profanity, 9,342; personal purity, 49,
500; antigambling, 6,925.
Records from November /, 1917 t
December 81, 1918, show that 1SS
Bible classes were organized with
total enrolment of 43,O12 men. Thes
classes held 1895 sessions and had a
attendance of 345,59S. 1t was not unit
May 1, 1918, that records were mad
of the number of teachers used a
these classes, but from that time t
December 81 there were 1,446 soldie
teachers and 1888 civilian teacher
engaged in conducting the classes.
Comics of the Scriptures distribute
to soldiers reached 539,sS9, Or on
each for every person in the states
New Mexico and Arizona. Religion
literature given out from June l, 19l'
to December 81 numbered 569,2A

Visiting sick soldiers was a part

SOLDIER BOY KICKS
AGAINST Y.M.C.Aa.
Serves It on Toast With GarnIsh CT
Scotch Blessings, but the Cap
tain "Stumps" Him.

"If every Kick and knock against the
Y. NJ. c. A. service overseas could
have been handled as an American
cartain know treated one case In his
company there would be more In the
aIr Of what the ~ did and less OF
what they failed to do" said John M.
Currie of Merosc, Mass, who Is just
home from operating Red Triangle
nu,s in the Calais and Ypres sectors.
The censor one evening came across
letter from a boy to his folks back
home in which the "Y" was panned
and served on toast with garnish OF
all the Scotch blessings and reverse
English the boy had on hand. Now
the censor is a pretty tired man, ana
/ should not have blamed him II ne
had let that letter go. But there was
IN extra strong touch of exaggeratlon
in it that reused the censor's sense OF
justice.
So he sent the letter to the captain
of the boys company and the captain
called the boy in. This is the conVer-
sation that followed:
"Dd you write this letterT'
"Yes, sir.
"Reod it over-is there anything
there you'd like to change before II
is sent?"
"No, sir"
Then there was, a short pause, IN
which the captain studied the boy
and the boy set is jaw stubbornly
Finally:
"Where did you get this letter''
"Thc ~ sir"
"Who gave you the paper?'
"The ~ sir"
"It's warm and cozy, and something
like home there isn't it?"
"Yes, sir"
"Where do you get your cigarettes
candy. etc"
"The Y,' sir"
"Youre always sure Of finding VIVA
you want there?"
"Yes, sir"
"You go to the movies and q rea
show occasionally"
''Yes, sir"
"Who runs themT'
j, "The ~ sir"
"Doesn't cost you a cent, does It
mo, sir"
There was another pause, and II
boys face was redder and his eS?re
sion softer. Then:
II "If you don't mind, sir, I'd like
see that letter again."
+ Without a word he took 1t from II
IL officers hand, tore it once across, al
II dropping it into the basket made h
2 salute, turned on his heel and walk
IL out.

METHOD|STS TOLD
TO Do SOMETHING
THAT IS SENSATIONAL
n. T. RURGE, MISSIONARY, SAYS
CHURCH MUST KEEP PACE
WITH WORLD, WHICH is DOING
THINGS DIFFERENTLY NOW, or
FALL HoPELESSLY BEHIND.
Appeals to Church to Make Supremt
Effort and Sacrifice at This Time
to Chrstianize World and
Present Arms.

Plans OF the Methodist Episcopal
Church, South, indicate that their field
of work will greatly broaden in the
next few months and will include
Europe and Russia. "The Methodist
Church has been plodding along tol
many years and has made record
that every Methodist is justly proud
Of said R. T. Burge, of the Siberian
commission of the American Red
Gross, in a letter from Vladivostock
that has just been received at head
quarters in Nashville.
1T Is time, however, for the Meth
odist Church to do something sensa'
tional and unusual. All the world is
doing things differently now and the
organization that cannot keep pace
must fall behind. We should go into
the countries of Europe and Russia,
be pionesrs In work that might mean
more to prevent future wars than the
League of Nations. Christianize and
educate the peoples OF the world and
there will be no more wars. But II
we have harmony by threats and feal
and by constant show of force, see
no reason why it might not be another
question OF "a scrap OF paper.
''But It would be madness to at
tempt any work in Siberia or Russis
at this time No complete or lnteill
gent investigations can be made until
order Is restored, and from what
have seen it will be months before
that task Is accomplished. The cam
Daign for thirty-five million dollars t.
