HINTS FOR FARMERS Hoofi of tha Hone. When the foot is gone there Is no horse left. . There Is an old adage to this effect, the truth of which is In controvertible, says E. Russell in Farm Journal. Yet no part of a horse's anatomy Is worse used than the feet, and there are no more frequent dis eases brought to the notice of tlie Tet erinary surgeon than those of the feet. This comes of the unwise fashion of rUsplnp, cutting, burning, tarring and greasing the hoofs. When a shoe is to be fitted the edne or wall sole should bt prepared by cutting or rasping, not by burning. In deed, the shoe should be lilted to the foot aud not the foot to the shoe. When from bad management the sole and frog have become dry nnd con tracted no grease or tar should bo used, but water should be used freely, and then the hoof should be dressed with glycerin, which will mis with water and does not displace it. Glycerin contains no acid or acrid properties, but Is soft, bland, emollient and docs not evaporate. It therefore softens the horn aud allows tho fibers to expand. Contraction is thus pre vented or is overcome when it has ac tually occurred. Stamping Out Hog Cholera. It Is said that ('minda has rid Itself of hog cholera by killing all hogs af fected, by quarantine Inspection and by paying for the. losses. In referring to this matter Veterinarian McNeil of the Iowa Agricultural college says: "The only remedy is in sanitation and prevention by using this meth od. If your pi;;s become affected with scabies or any of tho minor skin af fections, make u small dip tank, or if that is too much expense simply catch the pigs aud take some disinfectant and Kcrub brush and clean up their faces and heads. (let nil the matter away and then paint them with a lit tl.. Iodine. That helps to disinfect. This should bo done from time to time." Feeding Dairy Cattlo. Remember that milk can be pro duced from feed only. The cow can make milk only from the feed she con sumes. The more feed the more milk Is an Invariable rule. If the cow is a beef cow she will get fat, but if a milk cow every ounce of feed she consumes except that needed to support the an imal body will show la the milk pall. If you have the right cow, do not feed her stingily. Whoever heard of a man feeding a bunch of fattening steers scantily? L)ues the steer not have be fore bhn ull the feed he can possibly ent and usually ull he can waste? Then give the milk cow the same chance. Farmers Advocate. Milk Value of Corn Fodder. Trials at the Vermont station show that there Is no material difference In milk producing value between imma ture and mature corn fodder when compared on the basis of dry matter. The same results were secured with silage made from mature nnd Imma ture corn. A pound of dry matter of the immature corn produced the same results ns a pound of dry matter of the mature corn. This suggests that If corn Is cut too early the farmer loses too many pounds, and, on the other hand, if cut too late too much In the way of coarse butts Is wasted. Keeping Squashei. Many gardeners do not succeed In keeping squashes until late in the spring, but it is not dililcult to hold them until June If nil conditions are right. In the first place the squashes should be harvested before frost. They should be handled without bruising and stored where there is an even tem perature. Either low or high tempera tures are disastrous to the long keep ing of this vegetable. The soft shelled, immature specimens should be used or sold in the fall. National Stockman. The Farm Driving Horse. Every farmer should have a horse that the wife and daughter can ride and drive as well as the boys. In se lecting such a horse choose one about fifteen hands and one or .two inches high, weighing about OoO to 1,000 pounds. He should have a good even disposition and go equally well in har ness or under saddle. Small horses are better than large ones for light driving. Their feet are apt to be firm er and finer in texture nud more likely to remain sound. Farm Journal. Remedy For Chickon Mite. Make a brine of salt and water so strong that It w!!l bear up an egg. Heat the water to Insure that every particle of the salt dissolves. For each gallon of the brine pour on a half pint of crude carbolic acid. This may not mix with the brine, but if the mixture la stirred freely while It Is being ap plied the distribution will be equal. Apply to the roosts and walls with a spray pump or an old broom. One ap plication each week for three to five weeks will destroy the pest. In the Orchard. Every upple tree In the orchard should be examined for borers before frost gets into the ground. The knife end the wiro method of exterminating these pests Is old, hut it is the surest Neglect of this duty till spring may Cost the orchard a number of valuable trees through girdling. 1 Care of the Colt. Do not allow the colts to run out In the pasture until lute in the autumn without giving proper cure and so have them become stunted In growth and development. Better take thera np nd put them In the barn overnight ttven If tlK'.r are allowed to run lu the x pasture hi the daytime. The SPORTING WORLD Football Talk. In Captain Tarker the Harvard elev en has a heavyweight lineman who is alert to the possibilities of open foot ball, the onslde kick nnd the forward pass. With several veterans, among them men who met defeat at New Ha- CAri'Al.N I'AISKElt OF HAIiVAItD. , Ven last fall, when Yale showed thor oughly better understanding of the modern style of gridiron work, Cap tain l'arker hi building up the speed of the Crimson players. Frank r.urr. Harvard's groat guard, is one of the strongest punters of re cent years. Many believe that lu liurr's kicking powers Harvard has one of the most effective methods pos sible in making profitable use of the rules. Pitcher Grant McGlynn. ritcher Crant McOlynu of the St. Louis National league club is a vet eran player and pitcher, though this is his lirst season as a major leaguer. McGlynn was born In Lancaster, I'a., on May 20, 1872, and learned to play ball in nnd near Ilarrisburg. Trior to joining the Cardinals in the fall of IGOti "Stoney," ns he is called by play ers ami patrons, pitched for Cumler land Valley, I'ennsylvnnia State nnd Tristate league teams. His best sen son was in 1904, when he won sixty one out of sixty-eight games he twirl ed and batted .2'.Mi. He pitched York Into the 1000 championship by win ulng thirty-six of his forty-six games, lie joined the Cardinals last fall nnd at once made good. Cold weather af fected his arm last spring, and he did not strike his stride until midseason. Since then, however, lie has done splendid work for the St. Louis club and is now regarded as one of the mainstays of that club's pitching staff Hanlon'a Change of Heart. Manager Ilanloii of Cincinnati would eliminate the sacrifice hit ns the play Is ordinarily made. Said he the other day: "If I made the rules I would for bid the sacrltice hit with a man on first aud no one out. It is not baseball. The play purely n mechanical one and far removed from the scientific features that characterize the playing of championship tennis. I don't say that the play is not a winning one. It Is a run getter, but- It is retarding the general advance of skilled play. What Is prettier than the hit and run for the fellows boosting for the team at bat, or, on the other hand, what beats a fast double play in the eyes of the fnns on the other side? I have always said that a bunting team could not be beaten," added Ilanlon, "but It Is the unexpected plays Mint win. The spec tators expect n sacrifice when one is due, as the gpme Is now generally worked, and neither they nor the op position Is surprised." Hugh Duffy to Lead Brewers. Freshlent Ilavenor of the Milwau kee baseball team, It Is now believed. Is trying to persuade Hugh Duffy to go back to Milwaukee to manage the Brewers. Ilavenor Is looking shout for a successor to Jack Doyle, nnd It Is probable that Duffy will be secured nt the biggest salary paid any minor league manager. Duffy now Is part owner of the rrovidence team nnd was formerly of the Milwaukee Western league team, later spending two years as a manager in Philadel phia. The figure to be paid is not an nounced, but it is said to be of record proportions. Indiana Football. Couch Sheldon of the University of Indiana eleven has n hard task on his hands. lie has lost practically all of his veterans nnd has to bulid a new team. Wade, tackle, is captain of the team. Heckmuu, a lineman, and Mac Gaughy, back field, are all that Shel don will have as a nucleus for his team. Indiana has a heavy schedule, meeting Chicago, Wisconsin, Illinois. Notre I. mine and alumni. New Breed of Dog Discovered. A. W. Canning In Ferth. Scotland, In the course of a lecture delivered on an ofliclal trip of exploration that was recently mut!? Into the wilds of West Australia described a new variety of dog discovered there. The animal Is about the sl of a rat and resembles a marsupial dingo closely. The dog Is s:id to live largely on lizards, snakes and other small ground vermin. Booms That Failed. Jha id a bad time for political booms. The Taf t boom is sagging; the Roosevelt boom has received a black eye as the result of the panic, and there are signs that it is being wrapped iu cmton after being em balm d for reservation, aud is now buried with i lie "Big Stick;" the Fairbanks boom is resting to recu perate from its bout with the cock tails; the (Jurtelyou boom has oeeu killed in the house of its friends, the frenzied .inaociers of Wall Street; the Hughei boom is engaged in a life and death struggle with the cold remains of the hoosevelt boom, with Ode.
