TUBERCULOSIS HARD
DISEASE TO HANDLE
Owners of Live Stock Urged Not
to Wait for Future.
Area Over Which Ailment Has Spread
Is Too Vast, Herds Too Numer-
Gus and Funds insufficient
for Extensive Plan.

Live stock owners are earnestly re-
quested, says the United States de-
partment of agriculture, not to wait
until the states and federal govern
ment come into their localities to
eradicate tuberculosis. 1t would not
be possible indeed, at this stage to
undertake to eradicate tuberculosis
States solely through organized Off
cial forces established by the respec-
tive states and the federal govern
ment. The area over which tubercu-
losis has spread Is too vast, the herds
too numerous, and funds are INSULT,
Client for conducting the work on so
extensive plan even though trained
veterinarians were available in Sufti-
Client numbers to do the work. Every
live stock owner should be a party
to this campaign which has been in
augurated to eradicate tuberculosis.
In almost every locality of the United
States are veterinarians capable of
rendering valuable services to live
stock owners in this great work, and
the cost of Graduating is greatly re-
duced by combating the disease in its
early stages. Yet even in badly af-
fected herds eradication can be I'M
dertaken with success. There are rec
ords Of many herds, in which three
fOurths of the animals were affected
with tuberculosis. which eventually

pounds Of grain per head daily. A good
grain mixture consists of four parts of
corn, four parts Of oats, two parts Of
bran, and one part of oil meal, by
weight.
Aecustom Lambs to Grain.
When the lambs are two weeks old
they should be provided with q grain
feed in lamb creep, which can be con-
structed so that only the lambs have
access to the grain. Any convenient
arrangement to meet the needs of the
individual farm will be found salts
factory. Crushed corn and oats, witt
bran, fed in equal parts by measure,
makes very satisfactory feed to start
the lambs with. They should be fed
just a little at first until they become
used to the grain, which should be
gradually increased uh1l they are re-
ceiving what they will clean up in Is
minutes twice a day. By providing
grain for the lambs in a lamb creep,
larger and more economical gains can
be made.
When the lambs are from ten to
fourteen days old they should be
locked and castrated. When properly
done it adds much to the appearance
Of a lamb and Increases the selling
price at the market. The best time to
dock and castrate the lambs is in the
morning Of a clear. bright. sunny day.
Care should be taken that they are not
unduly excited before the operation is
performed. Cleanliness should be fol-
| lowed in all cases in performing the
operations. Another reason for per-
forming the operation in the morning
is that the shepherd has a chance to
observe the condition of the lambs dur
ing the day to see that they are recov-
ering satisfactorily.
For docking a sharp-edged tool can
be used with very satisfactory results.
Docking irons. which burn the tail, may
be used and the loss of blood reduced
to a minimum, uur Il it is used too hot
the wounds will heal slowly. With any
of these instruments the cut should be
made about an inch from the body.
The lamb should be held with the rump
resting upon the top Of the panel or
pen partition, or upon a board If the
hot irons are used.
In castrating, the lamb is held in the
same position. The hands and knife
should be disinfected. Unless both
testicles can be felt the operation
should be delayed. The lower third
Of the scrotum should be cut off. The
testicles then can be removed by pull
| ing them straight out.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
A large crop of lambs is the basis Of
good financial returns, while a small
crop of lambs means less profit. 1t is
very necessary that ewes and lambs be
given extra attention in order to insure
the largest profits, sheep specialists of
the United States department of agri-
culture point out.
Heavy grain feeding just before
.ambing, especially in cases where the
ewes have not been fed grain, is dan
gerOus. II the ewes are not in good
condition in the early part of the win
ter they should be gradually accus-
toned to grain six weeks prior to lamb
ing time. A grain mixture Of equal
parts of corn, oats, and bran by weight,
fed at the rate of one-fourth to one
half pound per head daily.to ewes not
in very good condition will be found a
good practice. Prior to lambing the
wool around the udder of the eve
should be clipped short to allow the
lambs to find the tsats readily.
When a eve shows indications of
lambing it will be found best to put
her in separate pen, which can be
made of light panels four feet in length
fastened together by hinge and set in
the corner. These panels permit the
eve to see the other members of the
flock and prevent her from becoming
excited and nervous. Their use also
prevents the other sheep from disturb
ing the eve and young lamb. The eve
has good chance to get acquainted
with her lamb at the start, thus averr-
ing the danger of disowned lambs
later
Give Careful Attention to Udders.
The lamb that is born strong and
vigorous, with good dam. will need
very little care after the first day or
two. 1t is important to see that the
lamb gets its first feed promptly.
When lambing pens are used the shep-
herd is able to give the individuals
more careful attention and thus get
them on the way more rapidly.
The shepherd should watch the ewes
carefully to see that their udders are
in good condition. This is of special
Importance during the first week with
ewes which are heavy mixers. After
lambing the ewes should be fed lightly
at first, being put on full feed about
the third or fourth day. At this time
it is economical to feed heavily enough
to produce large flow Of milk for the
lambs. Ewes which are good mixers
will use to advantage one to two

FIREMEN GO TO SUPPER
FIRE BOYS SAVE CARS

The fire bell at 5 o'clock Sunday
afternoon called for help just outside
the city limits, on Lafayette road, to
point where two baggage cars were
burning on the Southwestern Ry.
The department responded and after
fight extinguished the blaze.
The cars were two freights linked
together and trying to get into Medi-
ma going north. In bucking the snow
bank just south of town an overhead
wire was broken and one end fell on
the forward car and set it on fire.
| When the fire laddies arrived. it was
burning fercely. About the same time
a passenger car from the north drew
up to aid in extinquishing the fire.
Where the cars stood it was difficult
for the fife boys to reach the blaze
But as there was no chain to hitch
andpull it out fireman boarded the
passenger car and run was made uE
town. Securing the chain it was
found the passenger car had run of
and left the burning cars to theil
doom.
In the mean time the fire boys af
ter running over tracks etc, had reacl
ed the fire and put it out. Whel
trouble to get a stream of chemical

trainmen to help and thew were toll
to "let the fire go to h-l,", Will

POLITICIANS SHOULD SEEK A WAY TO
SAVE

There is much talk about the need of money for
governmental purposes which, naturally must be raised
by taxation There two ways, it is pointed out, to
enable the money raised to equal the needs of the State
and countesby raising the tax rate by forcing
property to the duplicate. There is third way of
making the taxes collected the outgo, but few poll
tcians alude to thist isn't good form from the
viewpoint of the average politician
While people-potcians in particular-are looking
about for things to tax why not devote part of
ones time to looking around for places where
little expense money? When the private individual
cans find any legitimate way for increasing his income,
and his expenses exceed that income he down his
expenses his outgo-if he's honest And the rules
should govern State, county city.
Half the energy spent in seeking some place to save
that has been spent in searching out something to tax,
and other things which the tax rate be raised with
out wrecng the party that raises it, would have solved
financial difficulties. And knows this better
than the politicians but moral towards that many Of them
are, they dare not face the music.
1t is high time that stop called on expendi-
lures. If politician has contracting friend who has
worked himself out of ob and is crowdng his political
friends to find make him one, and the politician
yields, its high time that the people reegated this pot
clan to the bourne from which few politicians return
and they should send him quick before he has time to
do any more mischief.
