CRABS USED AS WATCHDoGS
West Indian Species Are Said to Be
Remarkably Effective in Keeping
Off intruders. -


How would you like a crab In the
house instead Of a dog, to give warn
ing Of unwelcome visitors? Land crabs
are used for this purpose in the West
Indies.
These particular crabs are about
the size of a football, with enormous
eyes and feeIers. The big claw is
usually well developed, being almost
the same size as the body. When
alarmed the crab holds this claw up
In a very threatening attitude.
= Crabs are naturally intelligent, and
this species shows both affection and
faithfulness to those with whom they
are In frequent contact. Their strength
and speed = amazing, and any in
truder will have as much difficulty in
releasing the grip Of a crab as he will

more salable than that Of non-purebred
sires and brings nearly so per cent
greater returns.
The foregoing are a few results Of
q recent inquiry conducted by the
bureau Of animal industry, United
States Department Ut Agriculture. The
figures are based on about $4,000 head
Of breeding stock owned by 525 expert
enced livestock owners. Besides, the
same persons own 10000 fowls on
which the poultry results are based.
Ali Of these stockmen have for several
years-an average of nine-used pure
bred sires to head their herds and
.focks.
Figures Are Conservative.
The figures mentioned we're obtained
during the last part Of 1871 In q peri
cd Of marked depression In the i've
stock industry. Partly for that ca
son they are considered conservative
even though pointing to an unusually
high value Of ~pursbrsds oTs com
mon stock.
The purpose Of obtaining this new
Information was to supply an increas-
Ing demand for facts Of greater scope
than single short-time observations.
With the development Of the Federal
State campaign for Better Sires-
Better Stock the Department has re-
eeived an unusually large number Of
requests asking what purebreds a
do for the man who does not aspire
to become a specialized breeder.

SECURE MOST SPEED
OUT OF AUTOMOBILE
Motor Pulls Best When Throttle
Is Partly Open.
Adjustment Depends on carburetos
and Particular Make Of car--Per- ,
feet Mixture VIII Always !
Make Strongest Explosion.

The purpose Of a throttle In an au.
tomobile is to control the, speed and
power output OF the motor. Under
usual conditions the wider the throttle
IL opened the greater the speed Of the
a and the more horse power the en-
CINE will develop. In theory this should
always be so, but, IN practice It Is not,
writes G.. w. Iverson In the Orange
Judd Farmer. Every experienced
driver knows that under certain con
ditions the greatest speed and the
most power Is not developed when the
throttle is fully opened but when 1t is
only partially opened. y
In a slow heavy pull up a hill or In
the mud the motor will pull better and
hang on longer If the throttle is partly
closed. The same thing U.s. true in
speeding. Just how much to open the
throttle under these conditions de-
ponds upon the adjustment Of the car
buretor and the make. of the car. Us.
ually it Is about half the maximum
opening. The driver should expert
ment with his own a and find out
which opening will be the best for his
own particular car.
The reason for this Is that carburet-
ors are not perfect. II properly adj
justed for one speed, they will not be
right for another speed. Unless the
motor gets a perfect mixture 1t win
not get the strongest explosion. A
given volume Of air will absorb only a
ceItain amount of gasoline yapor. A
mixture containing less vapor than
this will have excess which does not
burn during the explosion. II It has
excess vapor some OF the yapor does
not burn. In either case the explo-
sion Is weaker than 1t should be.
Keeping the throttle only partly open
tends to correct some Of the faults OF
the carburetor and gives a more per.
feet mixture. Try It the next time you
climb a long hill on high.
The Bottineau courant. (Bottineau, Bottineau County, N.D.) 1895-1929, 1922-07-06

them the proper care and opportunity
to prove their worth.
The bureau has abundant evidence
corroborating this belief. One farmer
relates that the impelIing force which
prompted him to acquire purebreds
was the need for more income. He
reasoned that ownership OF purebreds
was not the p~royerbial wealthy mans
diversion, but the poor mans necessity.
He obtained the best foundation stock
within his means and gave it good
care; it increased his returns 100 per
cent. y =
The inquiry shows that for the most
part purebred animals Of good type
are readily obtainable. But special
requirements or a desire for the less
common breeds generally involve soma
difficulties and higher prices.
About 9S per cent of the purebred
livestock ner reporting to the De-
partment were satisfied both with the
purebreds themselves and the progeny,
except when they expressed the de-
sire for still better stock. As n breed
er explained, the desire: for improve
ment is necessary for progress.
few had unfortunate experience with
purebreds Of inferior quality and point
ed out the need for making selections
with great care. Practically all re-
ports agreed on the principle that u
perior quality among purebreds them
selves is invariably worth a higher
cost.
Numerous ~sfdelights On the raising
Of improved live stock under practi-
cal farm conditions and through differ
ent periods, including last years period
Of depression, have been obtained from
the reports. Following Is a brief sum-

Silent Threat,

: A farmer, being short Of teams,
hitched a mule and an OK together
to help with the hauling. When the
team had gone a mile down the road
the OK stopped, lay down, and re-
fused to go further. The farmer
said nothing; simply unhitched the
animal, returned it to the stable, and
made the mule pull the wagon the rest
Of the day. $780,

~confidentially. "What did the boss say
todayT he asked. Nothing that I
heard" replied the mule. The next
day the OK was hitched with the
mule again. This time he lay down
at the end Of half a mile. Again the
farmer calmly unhitched him, put him
back In the stable, and made the mule
do the hauling.

asked the OK that night. II didn't

Of polluted drinking water--of milk

Mark Wynne was passing through the
little town from a hunting trip In the
North and stopped to e his old
friend, the father Of Elsie Lee, so his
appearance at the little party was a
happy accident.
Long after he had retired that night
he thought Of the dread disease which

her young companions fox-trotted
around them.

thoughtfully.

Purebred live stock has about 40
per cent greater earning power (apart

The superiority Of purebreds on q

production, and earlier maturity.
