Made Probation Officer
Ouer Unruly Husband

Joseph Leszynski, 81, will behave
fer the next year if spankings and
continual presence in his home of a
probation officer have the proper
effect.
Mrs. Gladys Leszynski, his wife,
proved to Judge Thomas M. Cotter of
Detroit that she was capable of
spanking him-had been doing it for
a long time-and was instructed by
the Court to administer the punish
ment whenever she believed it neces-
sary. She then was made special
probation officer for the period of a
year, to see that her husband came
home at a reasonable hour, avoided
bad company and conducted himself
as a dutiful husband should.
"He1l get a spanking tonight, if
you say so. I'll spank him every
day." Mrs. Leszynski, flushed with
her new authority, told the Judge.
The Court made no plea for mercy.
Joseph, considerably less muscular
than his spouse and decidedly of a
more timid disposition, corroborated
mis- wife's assertion that spanking him
was easy for her. She seized him by
the nape of the neck, stretched him
over her knees and spanked him until
he screamed, he said and then sent
him to bed.

AGRICULTURE

The rapid development and profit
able gains of lambs depend largely
upon their freedom from disease and
upon the nourishment they get during
the first few months of their lives, ac-
cording to the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. Both disease
and lack of proper nourishment, if
continued for a number of days or
weeks, tend to stunt tire young ami
mails. An animal once thoroughly
stunted requires a long time for re-
&C very. In fact, A months, which is
usually a desirable age at which to
sell lambs to the best, advantage is
not sufficient for the animal to re-
cuperate and develop into choice
market lamb say the department spe-
cialists. Lambs, therefore. should not
only be properly nourished but must
also be kept free from the various
ailments Of young lambs if the great
est amount Of money is to be realized
from them at market time.
Lambs from well fed ewes which
are properly cared for have few
troubles or diseases. There are how
ever, several ailments which some
times appear among lambs which if
not given attention at the proper
time may cause considerable loss or
affect theft early development and
hence their market value. and profit.
Some of the infectious diseases of
lambs, such as joint ill and others may
cause quite serious losses. Some Of
these diseases do not respond rapidly
to treatment but they can be prevent
ed by proper sanitary conditions.
Clean, well bedded and well ventilat-
ed quarters should be provided for
the ewes and lambs in order to pre-
vent these diseases. Sore eyes or
sore mouth often develops, particular
" if the flock is kept III unsanitary
quarters or if they are exposed to
rainy weather and the udder and
TANKS of the eve become wet and
dirty. In cases of sore eyes among
the lambs the eyes should be cleansed
each day until cured with per cent
solution of boric acid or a Is per cent
solution of argyrol. If the lambs are
troubled with sore mouth all the scab
and diseased tissue should be scraped
away and the sore covered with sheep
dip or carbolated vaseline.
Constipation is one Of the most
common ailments of young lambs.
This may be remedied by giving one
or two ounces Of castor or linseed oil.
White scours is another infectious
disease Of lambs which may become
quite serious and affect large num-
bers of the lambs where the flock is
kept in unsanitary quarters. Lambs
and their dams so affected should be
taken from the flock and isolated.
Such lambs should be given two tea
spoonfuls of castor oil which should
BE- followed for several days by daily
doses Of one-half teaspoonful of sail
cylic acid.

Shore Of Virginia are now busy haul
ing fertilizer, which is being brought
in almost by the trainload, to make
their land ready for the planting of
potatoes. According to those living
in the lower end of Northampton,
county, their potato-planters are all
oiled up and will be put in use the
first of next week. Most of the truck
land in that section has been worked
up and ready for potato planting as
soon as the weather permits, and from
the best information obtainable from
the growers themselves the usual
acreage will be planted this season in
10th Accomac and Northampton
counties.
Within the narrow peninsula of
Northampton and Accomac counties
are grown every year more than g.
100000 barrels Of white potatoes and
over 100000 barrels. of sweet pota-
toes. The farmers on the Eastern
Shore of Virginia have achieved their
success by specialization in potato
production. And, like all specialists,
they are fond of their speciality and
have unlimited faith in it's opportuni-
ties. They are, as consequence,
confirmed potato growers. Twenty or

To Take Teeth Out of Railroad Act

DREPARATION of a bill emas-
- culating the transportation act Of
1920 for introduction during the pres
ent session of congress has been begun
by Senator Brookhart (Rep., Ia.), who
was elected on an anti-railroad plat
form last November.
Reduction of the net valuation of
the railroads to approximately $12,
0OO00O,OOO, as compared with the val
uation Of $18,9OO,OOOOOO tentatively
fixed by the interstate commerce COM
mission, is probably the principal OBJ
ject of the Brookhart bill.
1t would also abolish the United
States railroad labor board and wipe
out the section Of the transportation
act directing the interstate commerce
commission to prescribe rates that will
yield a fair return on the value of the
property devoted to transportation.
The "fair return" is now designated
by the commission as 5A per cent, but
the railroads have never earned but
slightly in excess of per cent in any
year since the act was passed in 1920,
and that was last year
Senator Brookhart would reduce the
valuation on railroad property by

TERRY TO PLAY FIRST BASE
Pitcher Will Succeed Big Ed Konetchy
as Guardian of Initial Sack
for Mud Hens.

Terry, a pitcher, will play first
base this season for Toledo, it is
said, succeeding big Ed Konetchy.
Made-over pitchers have been very
successful in baseball. Mike Donlin
entered the National league as a
pitcher and became one of the great
est of the outfelders, batting being his
chief asset. Bobby Wallace, one OF
the games greatest shortstops, was
a made-over pitcher. Fingers who
have gone to the Outfield and made
good are legion. Certainly none has
forgotten that Babe Ruth for several
years was one of the best pitchers in
the American league. Reb Russell,
famous as a boxman years ago, is
burning up as a slugging outfielder for
the Pirates.
