RAT ALWAYS MANS ENEMY

Rats have been known to attack

A few years ago, rat sprang on

sometimes kill babies in their cradles.

Rats are weird creatures. Many
years ago there was man living near
the house of the present writer's fam

make rats follow him, and put them

HEAVY LIVESTOCK LOSSES

Losses of livestock from exposure in
Colorado during the year ending May
l were abnormally heavy, according to
reports received by the Colorado Co
operative crop Reporting Service from
all sections of the state, while losses
from disease were about normal These
reports show that losses of cattle from
exposure were As head per 1000, which
is the heaviest loss reported in the
past eight years The loss of sheep
from exposure was 43 head per 1000,
which was the heaviest in the pas.
eight years with the exception of 1912,
when the loss was 50 head per 1000.
Losses of lambs from both disease end
exposure were 35 head per 1000, COM
pared with an average loss of 40 head
for the past eight years. Losses from
disease were as follows: Horses, 81
head; cattle, 20 head; sheep 81 head;
swine, SO head. Heavy losses of cattle
from exposure were due chiefly to I'M
expected bad weather during the month
of April, after many cattle had been
turned into pastures, together with in
ability of owners to obtain hay and
get it to the stock after the storm
came.
Reports indicate that about per
cent of the 1919 hay crop or 2iS,0
tons remained on the farms on May /,
compared with per cent, or 14S,00J
tons in 1919. This is apparently n
sufficient supply of hay for the state,
but many sections were short of feed
when April storms came and were I'M
able to obtain delivery at the critical
time.
Indications are that about IL per
cent of the acreage of winter wheat
planted in the state last fall has been
abandoned, or about III, 200 acres. This
leaves for harvest about s61 900 acres,
compared with 1,064 900 acres harvest
ed last year. The acreage planted last
fall was only 81 per cent of that plant
ed the preceding year, and the aban-
donment of the crop planted in the
fall of 1918 was only ! per cent. The
heavy abandonment this year was due
more especially to the heavy winds
during the month of March.

EYES TELL SEAT OF DISEASE
Application Of "Iris Science" II 10 A.
serted, 10 a Practically Certain
Diagnosis.

Just as we find the state of the
weather by reference to barometer,
so can we tell whether a person IL in
good health by examining the eyes.
This method of diagnosing disease
from the eyes is known as the
''iriscience," and, according to DR.. An.
deron Of Denmark, is the only reliable
method by which the seat of disease
can be discovered.
The science was discovered by q
Hungarian, according to London An.
swers. During boyhood he caught an
owl which had broken Its leg. and
noticed that a black spot appeared
in certain part Of the iris. Some
years later he noticed the same black
spot In the iris of man who had sus.
tanned broken leg. The experience
caused him to investigate and he
found that every disease could be
read from a certain portion of the
iris.
When a disease is cured white lines
inclose the dark spot that proclaimed
the disease. From this the stage OF
the disease can be ascertained. II
the white lines do not entirely sur
round the dark spot the disease is
not completely cured.
Drugs are always clearly shown
on the iris-arsenic by white specks
on the out-edge, inorganic, iron by
brown marks round the pupil.

Charles King in 1894. This car had n
gasoline motor of four cylinders and
was of the high wheel type more often
called "horseless carriage With it
it was possible to develop speed of
about 20 miles an hour.
Henry Ford was working at the same
time and in 1896 brought out his first
successful car of two cylinders with
pneumatic tires and low slung. The
Odds Motor Company was the first to
manufacture automobiles in any guam

When Charles B. King first made
his appearance on Detroit streets With
his "horseless CARRIAGE he attracted
so much attention that the police
would not allow him to use the sreets ex
cepting between the hours of 2 and A
clock in the morning. The work on
this first car was carried on in the
machine shop of John Lauer at 112 St.
1894, King and his helpers decided the
machine was ready for trial. They
trundled Detroit's first automobile out
of the shop to the street, and after n
few attempts the machine started. The
course taken was out Jefferson to Fnst

they are made near the place where

they are usually made 8 by 8 by 16
