Mad Prairie Dog Runs

TENTS are received at the State Pas

ment TO prevent rabies after having
been bitten by mad dogs, cats. and

day was it known that prairie dogs
are subjected to the dread malady.
Ordinarily a prairie dog is a meek
creature When one Of these little
animals, which was kept as a pet by
T. r. McDermitt Of Levelland, Texas,
far out toward the New Mexico line,
500 miles from Austin, became Zero
cious and ran amuck In the little town,
biting more than a dozen children. the
matter was Immediately reported to
the Pasteur institute.
The head Of the prairie dog was
sent here for examination and II was
found to be afflicted with rabies.
Three children Of Prof. and Mrs. ].

here for treatment. Several other chill

Do your Shopping Now

There are many things which December
and April do not have in common, wheth-
er being the first point on which they diff
fer. bnt there is one bit of good advice
which can be accepted without question
either in December or April. This mes
sage of pure wisdom is: do your shopping
early
The buying public has learned from
sad experience that ~Plentywood stores do
not emulate the traditional general store
in buying stocks in the lump for the next
five years. Parodying that bromide,
The early shopper catches the worm" it
can be said with truthfulness that The
early shopper catches the pride of the
shops" If you don't buy early you take
what the other shoppers have refused.
Spring and summer buying is limited
chiefly to wearing apparel, household
needs and the implements of out-of doors
life. AT this time of the year the mine
of every man. woman and child turns to
ths thought of light and colorful raiment,
to Furnishings which will lend a cool
summary atmosphere to the city homt
and to the multitude of accessories to
summer play. Our merchants recognize
this seasonal demand and provide amply
for il, but it is manifest that the wide
choice of the new stocks can not be main
tanned to the end of the season.
Many people defer their summer buy
ing until the passing of spring. Others
advance their seasonal buying a few
weeks and give themselves the privilege
of leisurely shopping aid wide choice.
The late shopper saves no money ano
loses that enviable satisfaction givel
only to the early shopper.
The summer stocks are fresh ON The
The very first choices are al
ready being made. He and she who hest
tates will lose. Shop early for SINNER as
well as for Christmas.

Stolen Ruby Run Down in
Heel of Woman's Slipper

Berlfn-Only a few weeks ago the
famous Condo diamond was found
concealed in an apple In a Paris hotel
when a maid bit into the fruit, and
now a valuable ruby stolen more than
a year ago, has been traced by the
police to a cavity In the heel Of q
dancing slipper.
In November, 1925, a ring, set with
this square-cut ruby, was stolen in
broad daylight from the principal jew
elry shop Of Berlin's largest suburb
Schoneberg. The other day q detec-
tive noticed a costly ruby ring OIL
the hand of a oma he knew to be
the sweetheart Of a notorious burglar.
Two detectives hurried to the won
ans apartment and searched It But
the ring was not found. Certain OF
his clew, however, the detective re
turned next day with a policeman and
renewed the search. After four hours
he finally came upon the jewel In the
hollow heel Of a graceful satin slipper

THAWING FROZEN
COMBS is EASY

"Thaw frozen combs on poultry by
applying snow or ice water" say poul-
trymen at the New York State College
Of Agriculture at Ithaca. "Carbolated
grease, which may be purchased at
most drug stores, will do the trick. A
New Jersey agricultural bulletin sug-
gests the following ointment: Five
parts OF refined petroleum, three parts
Of glycenn and n part of turpen-
tine by volume. This should be ap-
piled gently and rubbed In fairly well.
Remove the black dead tissue from
badly frozen combs, 80 that they will
heal more quickly.
AT this time Of year many flocks
suffer from frozen combs. This trou-
bic Is particularly bad with roosters
Of the single-comb White Leghorn
breed because their combs are so big.
II a ROSTERS comb Is badly frozen, 1t
seriously affects his yigor and i'm
pairs his usefulness In the flock"
Poultrymen at the state college say
that the best farmers In the state put
their ROSTERS in the breeding pens
early In the winter and watch them
carefully during the coolest weather
so as to minimize the danger Of freez-
Ing. The college recommends curtains
In front Of the roost on very cold
nights In narrow houses. This is not
recommended In houses that are wider
than Is feet. Another suggestion Is
the use of wooden floats with Inch
holes IN them to be placed In the
drinking vessels. This reduces the
danger Of freezing, as 1t keeps the
birds from dipping their wattles In the
water when they drink.
In exceptional cases, 1t may be well
to grease the combs and wattles OF
especially valuable birds during cold
weather. The pens should be kept
well ventilated at all times.

Nonsinking Torpedo Is

A new periscope target has been in.
vented by the bureau during the year

Better Matching Eggs

A new requirement which must be
met before eggs will hatch well, even
under the best care, is called to the
attention Of poultry raisers by the
investigators at the Missouri College
OF Agriculture. This new requirement
Is that the eggs must be from hens
that have been fed a ration contain
ing certain vitamines. Though not
fully understood, the vitamines are
substances that have a very important
effect on the animal that eats these
feeds.
