Appearance as Guide in
Telling Age of Animals

General appearance is the best,
guide for age in hogs and poultry.
With horses, cattle and sheep, their
age may be told with fair degree
of accuracy by their teeth; how
ever, this requires experience and
various factors, states a writer in
the Rural New-Yorker.
With horses the first pair, upper,
and lower, of their front teeth are
up and in wear at from two and
one-half to five years of age. The
other two pairs of incisors come in
one year later for each pair, so the
horse is full mouthed at five years.
The cups indicate the age from
then on, starting with wear at six
years for the lower, center incisorsl
and advancing progressively one
year for the others. General appear
ance, slope and shape of the surface
are of Importance also. The horses
teeth are egg-shaped, from side to-
side, when young; at nine the sur
face is about round, and then be-
comes elliptical from front to rear.I
After eleven years general appear
ance is the only guide.

Locusts were reckoned among the

Gizzardless Chickens

Chicken specialists in the Depart
ment of Agriculture seem to have
settled the question as to just how
useful chicken gizzard is, at least
to their own satisfaction. They OPP
Grated on a number Of chickens,
removed their gizzards, and sewed
them up again. Put through feed
ing tests with normal birds the giz-'
zardless chickens have done well
on finely ground feeds, but failed
to digest coarse feeds efficiently. Al
hen operated on in 1884 is still lay-I
ing eggs and a gizzardless rooster
has lived happily since 1888. This
is interesting but of no great prac-I
teal importance. To our mind i'll
would be much better to eliminates

SWEETCLOVER THAT
IS REALLY "SWEET''
Strain Under Observation of
US. Specialists.
Supplied by the United States Department
of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Service.

Supplied by the, United States Department
of Agriculture.-WNU Service.
A sweetclover that is really
"sweet" is under observation of
forage specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
The common yellow blooming and
white blooming sweetclovers in the
United States both contain a bitter
substance known as coumarin. It
is believed this substance poisons
live stock when they are fed inn
properly cured clover hay.
Two plant explorers of the depart
ment, w. j. Morse and P. H. Dor
sett, seven years ago sent back a
specimen of a new sweetclover
from the Chilli province Of China.
1t was an annual. Since then ~
lots, all biennials, have been OBJ
tanned from central Europe, Russia
and Mongolia. None of them are
bitter.
Repeated tests with the new
sweetclover have convinced the for
age men it does not contain cou-
marin, reports DR.. E. A. Hollowell,
clover specialist of the Bureau of
Plant Industry.
Preliminary work at the Wiscon-
sin experiment station shows that
live stock prefer the new sweetclov-
er to the common varieties. Spoiled
hay of the clover has been fed to
rabbits and calves without i'll eff
fectS.
The new clover is shorter than
American varieties and produces
fewer leaves. The forage special
lists are trying to cross the nom
bitter clover with domestic strains
to lower the coumarin content of
the domestic strains. Attempts thus
far have been unsuccessful.

the law of the wilderness One breath

wild ass very much resembles mule.
1t is Of the same size, but reddish
brown in color, with a great tufted

the wild creature is infinitely superior

Market Old Sheep

Old ewes which have poor teeth
should be marketed as soon as pos
sible, says the Prairie Farmer. It
is an easy matter to check the age
of sheep by looking at the front, or
incisor, teeth which are in the lower
jaw. Mature sheep have eight of
these incisor teeth which fit against
the pad in the upper jaw. After five
years, sheep begin to lose these
teeth, and from then on will have
trouble in feeding, and should be
disposed of.

Shrinkage of Stored Oats

Tests at the Ohio experiment sta
ton show that wheat and oats
stored in bins in good condition and
kept free from rodents shrank very
little in storage. Over a fve-year
period, the average loss from
shrinkage in wheat was seven-tenthsl
of one per cent. Average shrinkageI
with oats was less than two-tenthsI
of one per cent. The moisture con-
tent of the grain varied slightly
from month to month, depending onI
the weather. 4

In an effort to obey orders, the lad
bent downward and lunged forward,
making a perfect attempt, which a
mounted to only a gesture. Subcon-
sciously or through reaction, his hands
gripped the rail more tightly.
Now, many spectators watched him

tact was finally made with the cool
water, but it rushed from beneath him,
letting him down, down; it never &C.
Cured to him to stop himself in any
way as weight and velocity carried
him fathoms beneath water.
At last he reached a standstill-
bottom-and began pulling himself
up. Time passed, stroke upon stroke
followed. An age seemed to pass
breathing time came, water was in
hailed instead of pure air. He began
to wonder if he were under the ship
the way out seemed endless. Strang-
led and sneezing with water-filled
eyes, he popped to the surface, TO find
many swimmers gathered around him
"Where's that gangway?" he asked in
a gulping voice.
NO." said a friend, "you can swim
if you can't dive; swim to the aft
gangway, I'll go with you, you will be

Making The Most Of

So very, very popular in the fine
restaurants and hotels-and yet so
very, very rarely seen on the din
ner table at home-that's the, mys-
terry of the oyster on the half shell.
And why?
The answer seems to lie in the
difficulty which the average individual
in the average home seems to have
in trying to pry open the two shells
of the little beastie who manages so
welyl to keep its face closed.
Still, once the trick is learned and,
like anything else, it is easy. AS with
othr members of the shell fish family,
the closed shell is a sign of live
and healthy tenant-just the kind to

enjoy for dinner.
Noting, first, that each oyster is
inside a tightly closed she'll, take
each oyster and scrub the outside of
the shell. Then place the oyster in
the left hand and with the thin side
of the she'll toward the thumb and
forefinger, insert thin, sharp, strong
knife blade between the shells just
back of the large muscle or hinge.
Cut toward you through the muscle
and around the she'll. After the oy-
ster is pried open, drop it into strain
er placed over a bowl so that any
liquid which huns over may be saved.
Before serving, look over carefully
and remove any bits of shell.
