BANKS AID PUREBRED SIREs
.Virainia Farmers Given Opportunity
/ to improve Live Stock by
. -. Local Bankers. - :

The banks Of Charlottesville, Va.'
are cooperating with farmers OF the
surrounding county in obtaining pure
bred sires. According to reports re-
ceived by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, If a farmer Will
sell his grade or scrub sires and pur,
chase pure-bred animals, the banks
supply the necessary funds to cover
the purchase Of the purebred sire over
the amount received for the inferior
animal. The loan Is made on the basis
of a years time.
Sentiment among bankers regarding
the use of purebred live stock In
practical farming operations appears
to be growing more favorable, and
the attitude of the charlottesville
banks is evidence Of this point. Pure
bred sires Of good quality, as shown
by information obtained by the bureau
Of animal industry, increase the earn
ing power Of herds and flocks in which
they are used.

SPIDER ROSE II 70 OCCASION
Hard to Deny Reasoning Power to In
seet Capable Of Such "construe-,~
:, s..-s--,'. tive Reasoning" 81

A spider constructed its web in an
angie OF Z garden, the sides Of the
web being attached BY long threads to
shrubs at the height of nearly three
feet from the gravel path beneath. Be
ing much exposed to the wind, the
equinoctial gales of the autumn de-
stroyed the web several times.
The ingenious spider now adopted
q new contrfvance. It secured a conf
cal fragment of gravel, with its larger
end upward, by two cords, one at
tached to, each Of its opposite sides,
to the apex Of its wedge-shaped web,
and left it suspended as a movable
weight to be opposed to such gusts OF
air as had destroyed the webs previ-
ously occupying the situation -
: The spider must have descended to
the. gravel path for this special OBJ
tect, and, having attached threads to
Il stone suited, to its purpose, must
nave afterward@ raised this by fixing
itself upon the web, and pulling the
weight up to height Of more than
two feet from the ground, where 1t
hung suspended by elastic cords. :

RATION MUST BE ATTRACTIVE

. Cows won't do we'll on food that
isn't palatable, say the feeding men
at the, New York College of Agricul-
ture kat Ithaca. Not only must the
dairy cows ration contain the proper
elements IL she Is to be worth her

her that she will eat plenty and keep
up a good flow Of milk. ~, les 7Asa
On the other hand, say the dairy
men, 1T isn't wise to change q ration
suddenly even to make it better. A
cow is a delicate milk.producins ma
chine, and sudden changes in her food
are quite likely to upset some part OF
the machinery, with resulting loss Of
milk. 4
The condition of the food probably
has most to do with its palatability
moldy grains or roughage don't appeal
to any self-respectins cow. ''

done with a trifle more realism,
thanks to the skillful acting of john

TREATING sTEERlLITY IN COW

z In many herds where abortion dis
ease is present, from five to ten per
cent Of the cows become sterile or bar
rem, and most cases become chronic
or permanent unless. they are treated
by a qualified veterinarian. DR.. w. L.
Williams of the New York State Vet
Urinary college IS to be given credit
for the plan of procedure in handling
these cows. The treatment should not
be neglected too long after the cows
manifest this symptom. -
A thorough examination Of the pa
tient is necessary to locate the trou-
BILE either in the uterus, Ovaries or
fallopfan tubes, and treated accord
irely. 1t is not uncommon for skilled
operator to restore five out Of six cases
to- a reproductive state under favor
able conditions.
Cases Of long standing should be
sold to the butcher, as the treatment
fails to help them. A case OF more
than eight months to one years
standing is very discouraging to the
operator, for he realizes that function
al changes have taken place in the
reproductive organs that will be diff
cult to correct by treatment. There

consequently takes more interest in
them, feeding them better and build

does not need to do this, but usually
he finds that 1t pays him in gross re-

The results would have been the
