NEW LIGHTS ON 30.
VINE TUBERCULOSIS

Recent Federal Investigations OF
tuberculosis under normal farm con-
ditions continue to incriminate ro-
dents, especially mice, as possible
spreaders OF the disease. Following
are briefly the results of last years
studies on tuberculosis by experts OF
the Bureau OF Animal Industry. Thor
ough cleaning of stables from which
tuberculous animals have been remov-
ed has been shown to be OF greater
Importance in making buildings safe
for healthy animals than the use OF
chemical germicides When the
cleaning is properly and thoroughly
done the quantity OF disinfectant
needed is relatively small. Mice
which have ingested tuberculous ma
terial are especially to be suspected
as possible spreaders OF the disease,
as tubercle bacilli multiply enormous
" in their bodies and are scattered
freely with their feces. Results OBJ
tanned again emphasize that this de-
structive disease would decline ma
terially if relatively simple precau-
tions against its spread were more
commonly understood and practiced
by owners OF live stock Among the
principal measures urged by the bu-
reau are sunny, well-ventilated barns,
sanitary surroundings, application of
the tuberculin test to all cattle when
the health OF the herd is doubtful,
prompt removal of any animals
which are affected. and the introduc-
ton into the herd of any such ami
mails as are known to be tree from
the disease

Chronic Constipation

There are people who never have a
movement of the bowels without it is
produced by cathartic. Most OF
them have brought that condition on
THEMSELVES by the use of mineral wat
ers and strong cathartics that take too
much water out of the system ard ag-
gravate the disease they are meant to
relieve, A mild laxative tonic like
Chamberlain's tablets affords a gen.
tie movement of the bowels that you
hardly realize has been produced by
a medicine. and their use is not SO
likely TO be followed by constipation

Paris.-Robert Lansing, the Ameri-
can secretary of state, was unanimous
ly elected president Of the committee
on responsibility for the war, which
held its first meeting ON February .
at the foreign office.
In proposing Secretary Lansing
name, Captain Andre Tardien' the
French member of the committee, said
that before regulating a peace OF JUS
tice 1t was necessary to impose penal
ties upon the authors of the aggres-
sions which had brought death to mil
lions.
The work of the committee, he ex-
planned, would be first to study the
facts which would establish the guilt
of those responsible for premeditated
violation Of treaties and international
law, and, second. to fix the penalties
which would be defined and applied

Lansing for president. which was ap-

THE LAST DRIVE

The coming victory loan will be the
last
One more big job to pay for the VIC
tory-or the immediate demands OF
victory-and Liberty Loans will be
history.
There must be no tagging by the
American people in the drive that VIII
come in April. 1t will not be time
for excuses.
The same spirit that characterized
the last hour of fighting before the
al mistice went into effect should be
shown by the stay-at-homes for whom
the Yanks fought in France.
Here is the official report OF oper-
ations in those last few hours OF the
war:
"The 3rd Division advanced 8
kilometers east of Breheville. De-
spite increased resistance by ma
chine gun and artillery fire the
5th Division continued to advance
capturing IL prisoners, 3 large cali
ibre guns. 6 minewerfers ard con-
siderable material. In accordance
with the terms of the armistice
hostiltes on the front of the A
merican armies ceased at II a. m"
The Yanks didn't shirk that last
Job. Many gave their lives with peace
a matter of minutes away. Every A
merican at home worth the victory
won by those boys in khaki will work
as hard in the coming loan as in the
first.

PElTS WORTH MONEY

If the ranchers and sheep growers
had their wish, there would be no
coyotes IN Amt' ga. The ranchers
and sheep growers think that the only
thing coyotes were made for is to kill
cattle and sheep. This is wrong inn
preston. The coyote must have some
other calling in life or the good book
missed fire" when it said, Nothing
was made in vain. MY opinion OF it
saws Mr.. A. B. Shubert, president
of A. B. Shubert. Inc, Chicago, the
largest house in the world dealing
exclusively with raw furs, is that the
coyote is here to give up the ghost
and surrender his pelt to the furrier
who makes good use OF the good coy
ote pelt but has little use for the poor
ones. The better grades of coyote are
being dressed and died and used in
imitation OF fox. and on account of the
great popularity of the animal scarf
CONOlSS diC III StionS dNihaiiu o-iu eiN
bringing the highest prices ever paid,
The coyote is the only fur-bearer that
can be used in imitation of the fox.
The poorer grades of coyote are
used for coat Innings, lap robes, etc.
The skin is large and requires but
little work it answers the purpose.
Seventy-five per cent of the best
grades of the collection of the coyote
of the Northwest are used in America.
Our manufacturers know better how
to use them and our dyers dye them
better than the Europeans. We make
better and more attractive articles
out of coyote than are produced any
where. A soft, silky coyote, dressed
and dyed, and made into an animal
scarf can hardly be distinguished from
fox, except by an expert, so trappers
get after the coyote and trap as many
as you can, as the present high price
for this article will pay you we'll for
your time and efforts.

INCOME TAX

The farmer is not required to in
clude in his income tax computation
the value Of farp produce consumed
by himself and family. But in cases
where he exchanges produce for
merchandise, groceries, etc, the mar
ket value Of the article received in
exchange must be included.
This feature of the new Revenue
bill, soon to become effective, IS
pointed out by Collector Of Internal
Revenue. Justus S Wardel.
"a farmer must figure up all in
come derived from sale or exchange
Of products during the year, wheth-
er such produce was raised on the
farm or purchased and resold," said
the collector today
The farmer is allowed to deduct
from this total his expenses OF the
year connected with planting, culti-
walton, harvesting and marketing Of
the crop. or the care, feeding and
marketing OF live stock.
The farmer is not allowed to de-
duct the amount expended in 1918 in
purchasing stock for resale; but when
such stock is sold its cost is to be de-
ducted from sale price in ascertain
ing the gain to be included in his in
come return. The cost price Of stock
bought prior to 1917 cannot be de-
Quoted as in the case just cited. if
such cost was included in the deduc-
ton made in the year OF purchase"

CAUGHT IN STORM

With their automobile stuck in

Saturday afternoon, Mr.. and Mrs.

after working for some time trying to
get il started again they decided to
return TO Nina rather than remain out
