LAND OF RACIAL TEMPESTS

Tragic. History.

nalmatia, elongated so that 1t Is

has been swept by continuous racial
tempests for the last eight centuries.
Croats and Serbians constitute the
Slavic element in Dalmatia. speaking
the same language, but employing two
alphabets. The Serbs use the Russian,
and the Greats the Latin letters and
alphabet.
The Latin influence is more prev

malta being the reason therefor. In
the middle ages the Dalmatians were
a people without the consciousness Of
a country. During the Slav influx into
nlyria the invaders encountered little
opposition, except in the seaport towns.
The Latin element in the cities resist
ed the migration and thus engendered
the strife for supremacy which per-

Much Of the early Dalmatian rivalry
was economic, the tradesmen and
farmers naturally wishing to exchange
their goods with the Hungarlans. The
maritime cities preferred to do bust

ANCIENT MARVEL OF EGYPT
Labyrinth Constructed Some $500
years Ago Was a Structure
Of Colossal Size.

King Minos. with his labyrinth IN
'he island of Crete, is generally sup
posed to have been the originator of
the maze idea; but Egypt has laby-
rinth' too. and Egypt manages to hold
the record for antiquity In almost ev-
erythlng. labyrinths included.
This Egyptian labyrinth is $500
years Old. 1t Is merely a chaotic mass
OF rocks piled up in the desert a few
miles out OF Medinet. The outlines of
the walls merge dimly here and there
from the ruins, and from these out
lines. and the carvings on the stones,
Psychologists deduce that the laby.
rinth was built by 4 certain King
Labarys. who was more popularity
known as Amenemhat III.
The structure was 500 BY 600 feet.
1t contained 5000 rooms, half above
ground, half below. Remember that
the largest hotel in our present day
world boasts about that number Of
rooms on a dozen floors and covers a
city square, and some idea Of the size
OF the two-story labyrinth can be
gained.
Nobody has figured out yet why King
Amenemhat built this enormous pal
ace or tomb. In the lower story. his
tory says, the sacred crocodiles and
kings were buried. while the upper
floor was, few centuries after King
Anenemhats time, used as a seat OF
government.
The labyrinth was wonderful
place, one of the most wonderful in
Egypt, If our ideas of it are correct.
and its greatness was its downfall.
The citizens of a nearby town. who
worshped the ichneumon. resented
the sacred crocodiles of the labyrinth.
And so they made an attack upon one
Of King Amenemhats successors and
reduced the largest structure in Egypt
to a ruin.

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.
Accustom Lambs to Grain.
When the lambs are two weeks old
they should be provided with a grain
feed in a 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 little at first until they become
used to the grain, which should be
gradually increased ul.il 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 clear. bright, sunny day.
Care should be taken that they are not
nndulu ovoitod hofnro ho ie
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 CHARGE 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, OUT L 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 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.

ment Of Agriculture.)
A large crop of lambs is the basis Of
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. If 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 teats readily.
When a eve shows indications of
lambing it will be found best to put
her in a 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 avert.

Give Careful Attention to Udders.
The lamb that Is born strong and
vigorous, with a 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

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
from the live stock of the United
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
toe numerous, and funds are INSULT
Client for conducting the work on so
extensive a plan even though trained
veterinarians were available in suffi-
Client numbers to do the work. Every
live stock owner should be 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 eradicating is greatly re-
duced by combating the disease in its
early stages. Yet even In badly at
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
were freed from it and afterwards
oaintained in a healthy condition.

TO DETERMINE BEST MARKET
Too Much Dependence Must Not Be
Placed Upon Quotations Obtained
Unless They Are Official.

In determining the best market, it Is
not sufficient for shipper merely to
get quotations from the different cit
les and ship to that market which
quote the highest prices. according to
experts of the United States depart
ment Of agriculture. Freight and other
charges must be subtracted from these
quotations. All factors considered, the
best market is the market which shows
the greatest net returns. However,
too much dependence must not be
placed upon these quotations unless
official, as in many cases they are
merely approximations Of opinions as
to the trend Of the market and are
not usually direct offers. In case Of
doubt the best plan is to sell in the
market with which the shipper Is
most familiar, through some one IA
miliar with the goods and ways Of
the shipper.

present the effort for IA compromise
that would insure ratification and the
Senate's decision was accepted gener-
ally as Fastening the treaty toward
another deadlock. from which it could
be released only by verdict at the
polls next November.
Fourteen Democrats voted with the
united Republican membership for the
reservation, but this detection from adj
ministratiOn ranks fell far short Of the
number, required to ratify. 1t was con-
coded that others probably would swing
over on the ratification roll call, but
administration leaders, backed by q
definite assurance that the new reser-
walton was unacceptable to the presi-
dent. evidenced no apprehension that
their forces would dwindle beyond the
danger point.
The vote, SO to 26, showed on its

ervation but it by no means indicated

We're irreconcilable, holding out about

efforts to modify it had been defeated

lows in general form the one adopted
last November. 1t says:
