there was nothing he overlooked.

PROBATION is
URGED IN FEED
OF LIVESTOCK
Eating of Frozen Potatoes by Farm
Stock Results In Death
Warning Given

Moonshine has a deleterious effect
on animals the same as on humans,
according to w. +. Alworth, we'll
known Filler rancher, who last week
recounted TO The Record his expe-
riences with horses that had par
taken of frozen potatoes. causing Sc
rious, and in some instances, fatal
Illnesses.
II is Mr.. Alworth's opinion that
the freezing OF potatoes has a ten
dency to concentrate the alcoholic
or toxic content of the vegetable,
and when horses. cattle. swine or
sheep eat the tubers they become
violently sick.
Numerous instances of the loss by
death of animals which had eaten
frozen potatoes have been noted. Mr..
Alworth was able to save a horse
affected by the poison only last week
by using a drench.
Attention is called 10 the matter
so that care will be used in the feed
ing of potatoes. inasmuch as large
losses OF the kind referred to would
be disastrous to the community. as
well as 10 the individual owner.
Administer an antidote and then
cali veterinary, is the advice be-
ing passed by those who have ex-
perienced trouble OF this kind.
yeterinary's Statement.
Asked regarding this trouble, DR..
II. f. Mcmillan. local veterinary.
stated that during the past week
J. +. Blakeley had lost two horses
through the feeding OF potatoes that
had been frozen and then thawed.
DR.. Mcmillan says:
The year 1922 being a very dis
couraging one for potato growers
Of the Twin Falls tract. due TO the
low price. hundreds OF acres were
left in the fields and livestock al
lowed to consume them. Now comes
the complaint almost daily OF
rather peculiar sickness among both
horses and cattle. due TO eating these
potatoes. The extent or severity OF
the trouble does not depend upon,
DR. is IL in direct ratio to the amount
1f potatoes consumed. Whether the
potatoes act as a primary irritant, or
rs a secondary toxemia. due TO con-
inuous freezing and thawing IL not

An outstanding feature of both
games was that the two Filler teams
in the second half came up from be-
hind apparent defeat in the first half.
In the girls contest Twin Falls held
a 6-to-4 lead at the conclusion of
the first period. Likewise the Filler
men faced the second half with the

However, Miss Walters proteges
as well as Coach Pearson's quintet

opponents, winning in a blaze OF
glory and the deafening applause of
the jubilant fans.
