DISEASE CAUSE OF AHAL LOSS Three-Fourths of Ailments Which Ruin Valuable Herds Can Be Prevented. -
STRICT SANITATION NEEDED Contagious Maladies, Sporadic 'Ailments, Parasitic Troubles, Accidents and Neglect Are All Quite Disastrous. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Every year the people of the United States lose over $LHX,0OO,0UO directly (and no one Knows how much Indirectly) through diseases of farm animals. This is a large toll when divided on a per capita basis, and when It comes home to the farm stock-raiser who finds a valuable animal dead in the barn, or un epidemic spreading into Ids herd, the loss Is sometimes disastrous. The most regrettable feature of the case is that probably tbreefourths of the los could he prevented. Five Causes of Disease. There are live principal causes of diseae and death of farm animals contagious diseases, sporadic disease, parasitic troubles, accidents and neglect. Contagious diseases can be avoided, or at least their consequences greatly diminished, if fanners will learn to co-operate with the United Slates Department of Agriculture and the various state livestock ami sanitary authorities, who are striving to maintain animal health. Farmers should report promptly to the nearest olhYInls any suspicion of the presence of contagious disease, and they should observe carefully all regulations in regard to quarantine, sanitation, and care of animals, as protection against contagion. Tuberculosis Is one of the worst scourges among animals am it thrives best In damp, dark, ill-ventilated stables. It Is less common among animals running at large. Light, dry, well-ventilated stables and dry, clean barnyards or paddocks are essential to the health of farm animals. One valuable point in combating contagious diseases, especially tuberculosis, is to start the herd with animals that not only are free from disease, hut are of pr-v,,,.. .,g ....... I , -fell M Proper Care Keeps Farrn Animals Healthy. Ftock that Is not predisposed to disease. Official tests of herds are made on request and through co-operation of the United States Department of Agriculture with livestock sanitary olhcials. Purchase of breeding stock from these herds is a wise precaution. (Tare also should be taken to obtain stock adapted to climatic and local conditions. Tho other sources of animal loss are largely a matter of Intelligent and careful handling. Sporadic and Incidental diseases, Fuch as disorders of the digestive and respiratory tracts, can be avoided iMtgely by proper handling and feeding. A proper balancing of rations has a material Influence on the health of live stock. Too much of any food element is likely to result In digestive disorders, thutf predisposing the animal to disease. Parasitic diseases also carry ofT arge numbers of valuable animals every year. They are largely the result of improper bousing and neglect. The average farmer can not be expected to have the time and aptitude for study which will keep him apace with the latest developments in feeds und feedii:. animal nutrition anil medicines, hygiene, and other important matters related to the stock-raising industry. He can. however, avail himself of the benefit of the studies and demonstrations of specialists who have devoted their entire time to these subjects. Kvery state agricultural college maintains a corps of specialists whose publications and services are available. Department Offers Aid. The department of agriculture is constantly giving out important information In books and bulletins which may be had on reipiest and In every state the department has representatives combating animal diseases. It Is well to consult a local veterinarian in case of any disturbing symptoms and to report to the state veterinarian or the t'nited Slates Department of Agriculture, any symptoms which indicate the possibility of an epidemic. The wive breler is ever on the lookout to prevent disease Instead of waiting until a.cuv is necessary.

MAKE COMPOST HEAP FOR USE IN GARDEN
Start By Laying Down Bed of Fresh Stable Manure Organic Rubbish, Decayed Vegetables, Dead Vines, Weeds and Other Truck May Be Used Size Plot Necessarily Varies. (Prepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) Garden waste, decayed vegetables, dead vines, weeds, and the organic rubbish that collects about the place during a busy summer may be cleaned up and put to work again through the agency of a compost heap. Start the heap by laying down a bed of stable manure which has not been burned or heated. The size of the plot will vary with the amount of refuse to be used; for ordinary uses, If the bed is made 8 feet long by C feet wide and 2 feet deep it will serve the purpose. Over the manure spread a two-foot layer of refuse and cover it with another layer of manure. This last layer need be on!y a foot in thickness. Reje Don't Leave Manure in Piles Exposed to Weather Conditions Favorable to Loss By Washing Use It to Make a Compost Heap. peat the layers until all the waste hn been disposed of and then cover the whole with a layer of earth. If it is desired to add to the heap from time (o time the top layer may be opened and the new material emptied into the hole thus made. This is convenient for the suburban home where there is no animal to consume the kitchen waste. In the spring the heap Is well mixed with a fork and the compost is ready to be spread on the garden plot. The heating manure will effectively destroy any weed seed present and will also break down the structure of most of the materials that have been thrown upon the pile. The process may be continued indefinitely by simply adding enough ! manure to insure heating. Compost Is especially valuable for use In hotbeds and coldframes. CLEANING UP INSECT PESTS Many of Hibernating Species May Be Destroyed In Winter By Cleaning Up Obscure Corners. Much can be done now to reduce tbo possibility of Insect plagues next summer if a little effort Is directed to ward the destruction of Insect shelter areas. Around the grounds and gardens, under hedges, beside ditches?, and In fence corners are bunches of insectsheltering weeds or grass. Py the time cold weather approaches many kinds of Insects in the adult or Immature stages have taken full advantage of these nooks and hidden away there for the winter. The bureau of entomology, United Stales Department of Agriculture, says that If these spot are cleaned up and the refuse cut and humeri, many of these hibernating Insects will be destroyed and the damage from such pests during the coming season will be materially lessened. PROVIDE BATH FOR POULTRY Chickens Cleanse Themselves by Wal. lowing in Soil and Dust Box Should Be Accessible. Chickens never wash, as many other birds do, but cleanse themselves by wallowing In soil. Where board cr cement Honrs are used In the chicken Krise, some means for dusting should be provided during the winter months, say poultry specialists of the United Statrs Department of Agriculture. For a Hock of ."0 to 0i) fowls a dust box l by Z- feet or 4 by 4 feet will generally bo found large enough, and should be placed w here it can be reached by sunlight during as much of the day as possible. Fine, light, dry dust is the best kind with which to fill the box. but sany loam ir. good. Koari dust ,1s recommended by many, but It Is apt to be lilt by. Coal or wiod ashes may bo mixed with the soil If desired. - FARM FOR CENSUS PURPOSES Is All Land Which Is Farmed by One Person, Either by His Own Labor or With Assistance.

MADE RAG FIGURE POPULAR Russian Princess Instrumental in Causing a Return to Pastime That Was in Favor Long Ago. It was the fashion a little time apo to think scornfully of the woodwork screens, the paper flowers or the wax figures made by the women of the past, but now they are eagerly sought and added to collections of articles Illustrating home life. History repeats itself, and to this busy athletic age has come a wave of the old ünger-work fashion. Lately It was picture making with feathers, now it Is little figures made from rags. These last were the idea of Mine. Wolkoff, nee Princess Trouhetskoy, formerly of the Russian Imperial court, when at Petrograd, where the little figures were sold for the benefit of Russian soldiers. Since Mine. Wolkoff has been in England she has modeled little statuettes of well-known people, all in characteristic attitude and lifelike appearance. Odd pieces of rag have been manipulated to make these charming little figures, which vie with the paper modeling and the wax groups of the past.
