it sometimes happens that a shipment
of apparently healthy cattle or sheep
shortly after arrival in a feed lot, will
develop symptoms that will cause the
owner to believe that the animals are
afflicted with pneumonia.
Teh affected animals as rule refuse
feed. There is quite often difficulty in
breathing and coughing may occur.
There may be discharge from the nos
trils and strings of mucous may hang
from the mouth. The animals lose
| flesh very rapidly, their abdomens be-
coming puffed up and the eyes sunken
Distinction of stockyards which
may be effectiyetemporarily can not be

nation OF susceptible animals from
stockyards has been suggested, there

should be made by a veterinarian and
/ only fresh, tested yaccines or bacter-

sheep should not be allowed to mingle
with other animals on the farm until

A Hard Luck Story.
A brief tale of loss in shipping hay is
going the rounds Of the farm press, as
/ follows: "A farmer at Iowa City, Ia.
shipped a car of hay to St. Louis He
got $S2.61 for it. The freight and 9th
er charges totalled S92.13." The kind
of hay or the number of tons in the cal
is not given, nor is there mention Of
/ the price paid per ton. But aside from
all this the moral seems to be that st
Louis is not a profitable market fol-
hay grown around Iowa City, and thai
the farmer who feeds his hay, or sells
it to his neighbors, will be best Off

Iowa, general secretary of the Amer

on to say that:
"The object of the farm bureau is TO
create a countrywide organization to
advance and improve the agriculture
of the county, to cooperate with the
state colleges of agriculture and the
United States department of agricul-
ture in the employment of county
agent; to develop definite program
of work that will bring to the county

pands his idea to cover the state and

.1hE coMING YEAR

HE COMIN6 YEAR
The fact that hope springs eternal
in the heart and that there is ever
a rainbow of promise in the distant
is something for which we all can
give thanks.
1t is because of this hope and be-
cause of this rainbow that we well
come the dawning of the New Year in
happy anticipation. The past is over
and done with; but the future, with
all it's happy possibilities, is our own
rich possession. The New Year in
cludes another spring season and 9th
er harvest days. Its panorama lies
invitingly before us and it is rich in
promise. 1t affords new opportunity
for optimistic and zestful existence,
for the enjoyment of things hoped for
but not obtained during the closing
year And thus we bid the Old Year
goodbye without sorrow, and welcome
the New Year with smiling eyes.
If we have learned from past ex-
perience TO rectify the mistakes of
earlier days, the New Year will af-
ford us that opportunity. Humanity
makes many mistakes and all of US
are prone to error. Not wilfully so,
but naturally Experience is the
great teacher in all such cases, be it
in the conduct of the ordinary affairs
of life or in our business or farm
operations We are ever learning
from day to day and from season to
season, also from year to year, as we
look back and compare. If. from neg
lect, we have suffered loss of crops
and income. we, as farmers, can in
sure that this will not occur again,
because we have learned needed
lesson.
An old hymn writer has told us
that; New times, new seasons and
new joys, doth new song require >
We may all sing new song of hope
at Christmas, during holiday week
with its spirit of giving. Homecoming
and good cheer, and surely so at the
ushering in of a New Year with all
its latent possibilities for prosperity
| health and happiness. We need not
