Three-Fourths of Ailments Which

Quite Disastrous.

prepared by the United States Depart

Every year the people of the United
States lose over S2OO,OOO,OOO directly
(and no one knows how much indi-
rectly) through diseases of farm ami
mails. This is a large toll when di-
vided on a per capita basis, and when

er who finds valuable animal dead in
the barn, or an epidemic spreading in
TO his herd, the loss is sometimes disas-
trOus. The most regrettable feature
f0urths of the loss could be prevented.
Five Causes of Disease.
There are FIVE principal causes of
disease and death of farm animals =
contagious diseases, sporadic disease,
parasitic troubles, accidents and neg
lect. Contagious diseases can be
avoided, or at least their consequences
greatly diminished, if farmers will
learn TO cooperate with the United
States Department of Agriculture and
the various state livestock and SAM
tary authorities. who are striving to
maintain animal health. Farmers
should report promptly to the nearest
officials any suspicion of the presence
of contagious disease, and they should
observe carefully all regulations in re-
gard TO quarantine, sanitation, and
care of animals. as protection against
contagiOn.
tuberculosis is one of the worst
scourges among animals ant it thrives
best in damp dark, ill-ventilated sta
bles. 1t is less common among ami
mails running at large. Light, dry,
well-ventilated stables and dry, clean
barnyards or paddocks are essential TO
the health of farm animals. One val
liable point in combating contagious
diseases, especially tuberculosis, is to
start the herd with animals that not
only are free from disease. but are of

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agricultural
Garden waste, decayed vegetables,
dead vines. weeds, and the organic
rubbish that collects about the place
during busy summer may be cleaned
up and put to work again through the
agency of a compost heap. Start the
heap by laying down bed Of stable
manure which has not been burned
or heated. The size of the plot will
vary with the amount of refuse 10 be
used; for ordinary uses, If the bed is
made feet long by 6 feet wide and
2 feet deep ii will serve the purpose
Over the manure spread a twO-foot
layer of refuse and cover Ii with an
other layer of manure. This last layer
need be only a foot in thickness. Re

peat the layers until all the waste has
been disposed of and then cover the
whole with a layer of earth.
If ii is desired to add TO the heap
from time to time the top layer may
be opened and the new material
emptied into the hole thus made. This
is convenient for the suburban home
where there is no animal to consume
the kitchen waste. In the spring the
heap is well mixed with fork and
the compost is ready to be spread on
the garden plot. The heating manure
will effectively destroy any weed seed
present and will also break down the
structure of most of the materials
that have been thrown upon the pile.
The process may be continued indefi-
nitely by simply adding enough
manure TO insure heating. Compost Is
especially valuable for use in hotbeds
and coldframes.

WASHINGTON, May 3i.-The Sen
ators took the Yankees over the cross
country course this afternoon before
5000 fans at American League Park. For
while in the second inning it seemed
as if the visitors would require the aid
of some outside agency 10 get the local
team out The score was 12 to 5.
While the Yankees were being held
off by the cunning pitching Of Jesse
Zachary, the Senator's leaned into the
best that Waite Hoyt could offer, and
showed no disposition to suspend activ-
ities when Tom Sheehan, the tall re-
cruit from Atlanta, stepped out On the
rubber. Ever man on the Senators
with the exception of Bing Miller go
at least one hit, while Zachary made
four, including double.
New Record for Babe
About the only balm in the entire
afternoon, so far as the Yankees were
concerned, was the crashing line drive
that Bambino Ruth hit over the fence
in the ninth inning, driving home two
runs before him. 1t was the fifteenth
circuit wallop of the season for the big
fellow.
The clout gave the Babe new major
league record. 1t was his 118th homer
during his big league career. The for
mer record, 117, was held by c. {.
Cravath, formerly of the Philadelphia
Nationals.
In the first inning Ho2t got the SEN
ators out in order. In the second he
had the first two men out when Shanks
singled. In rapid succession Charity
O'Rourke, Zachary. Judge, Harris, Rice
and Brewer crashed hits into the out
field. When Hoyt was out of the game,
Sheehan went in hut there was no
stopping the Senators then. They also
crowned Long Tom and fattened their
averages. Seven runs in this inning.
Zachary Is Hit Hard
The Yankees hit Zachary hard, get
ting thirteen hits. Al De Vormer was
one of the busiest athletes with the
stici. for New York, getti W two dou-
bles TO left field Tom Sheehan proved
that it is as easy for pitchers to hit g
it is to be hit, so he crashed out two
singles.
Aside from the walloping phase of
the game there were several other
features. Stanley Harris had seven
put-out and five assists to mis- credit,
while the Senator'S made fifteen assists
behind their big left handler. One of
the outstanding plays of the game was
turned in by Chick" Fewster, who ran
back to the right field wall and, leap
ing, high, pulled down drive by ice
Judge.
