Three kinds of lice are commonly found on cattle and they may all be present at the same time Fortu nately, the same treatment may be used for each kind, says Irot H. A. Hopper of Cornell university. Cattle lice are especially Injurious to young stock. The irritation caused by the lice arrests growth and con tributes to low vitality. When the an lmalb are stabled in the fall, lice may not be detected, hut after a few weeks In the stable several hatches of eggs may hatch and the whole herd he infested. They must be controlled to insure tTie thrift and comfort of the herd, not to mention profitable milk Ing. Dipping the herd is most effective pWbere the size of the herd justifies It and the equipment Is at hand An orchard sprayer or even a hand pump for moderate may be satisfactory sized herds, if well done, spraying will control lice. The body must be wet thoroughly, especially t lie head 1 ears, brisket, tail, and the innet surface of the thighs and flanks In cold weather the cattle must he protected after treatment. Arsenical dtps ate commonly used for sprays but any standard dip used according to directions will be effective. Two treat meats 15 to 10 days apart are ad vised. During cold weather most owners will prefer to use hand applications such as powders and ointments, sug gests Professor Hopper. Before up plying these, it Is best to expose the hiding places of the ppsts by clipping all or part of the body. Flip and re move the rough hair, if any, along the back, around the head, neck, and ears and inside the flanks and thighs. Most dusting powders have some value in holding lice in check in cold weather, but they are not recommend ed as effective in eradicating cattle lice. Homemade preparations may he used if mixed and applied as indicated And as the dips they should be applied 16 days apart. There are always many wonderful dogs and there have always been many fine dogs. We have all heard of those who have saved children from the water, of those who have saved people from fires, of those, too, who have added so much pleasure to lives by their sweet, loving, devoted nays. In fact, sometimes, some of us feel very much ashamed when we think how fine are ttie creatures who can't talk and understand aud know all we do. There was a dog belonging to a family who was trying to raise money for summer outings for children who would not otherwise have any lovely country air. The dog was a beautiful dog, white in color. He had a handsome head, and such beautiful white fur that to look at him anyone would think that he was simply a dog who liked to be petted and spoiled, and that he was selfish and enjoyed sitting on a velvet cushion, or going for a drive in a beautiful motor. That is. you might have thought all that until you looked into his face. By ttie look in his eyes you could have told, In an instant, how fine he was. Ills eyes were so clear, so intellilie looked at you so wisely, as if he wanted to know all he could, and wanted to let you know that he tried to be a good, sensible dog. I wonder, ills master said one day, if we couldnt give some work for Whitey to do? Whitey was the dogs gent. name. The other members of the family said : Well, well all be so busy that Whitey wont get a great deal of attention that is we cant have so many walks and romps. It would be nice if he could help us in this work of getting up the fair to raise money to give the city children the outing. Now Whitey barked and wagged his tail. His eyes seemed to be trying to Inbreeding Intensifies Swine Characteristics Inbreeding intensities both the good and bad characteristics present in the parents. If file ancestry is known to have had uo weak points, which is seldom the case, then inbreeding may ' result In outstanding offsprings It should be remembered also that often brings hidden defects to light, writes A. P. Weber of the University of Nebraska As a general rule, inbreeding should not be practiced in herds where the pigs are to be fattened for market The progressive and studious breeder of pure breds. however, cun afford to experiment with inbreeding with the hope that a few outstanding pigs will be produced and thus enable him to eventually fix a superior type that will breed true. Dairy Cows to Produce Heifers for Beef Trade rt me Where a man intends to keep belfers for breeding, a milking short horn bull, of unusually beefy confer mation, would make a satisfactory man cross on his dairy cows, if didnt want to keep nny heifers, then bull could hardly an Aherdeen-Angu- s be excelled for crossing on dairy cows. t produce calves to raise for beet. The hornless head and the black are doro-color of the Aherdeen-Angu- s tant in heredity, and the cross bred calves would be mainly hornless and solid black in color. This uniformity together with the short legs and thickness that they would likely Inherit from their site. would be an advantage to the feeder. i Sows Need Minerals to Prevent Going Down Sows that go down in the hark may be Injured in some accident. More often, howevei, they are cripples because ol the reduction of lime In theii skeletons to supply milk to their young. A ration that is high In protein, mineral and vitamins Is essential if tK sows are not to have trouble from this source. A ration containing meal and mineral tankage ulfai'should not allow the skeleton to get so low in mnerals that the bones cannot carry the weight. Little or nothing can be done for her once she is down. Feediiv a good balanced commercial ration will prevent this trouble. - Returns From Silage An acre ot corn returned $71.65 when put into a silo and fed to steers as silage, together with cottonseed meal Htid mixed hay, at the Ohio Ex pertinent station In a recent test.

Es- Filth and manure, when they gain entrance to milk and cream, give these products their respective odors and flavors. They further contaminate them with many species of bacteria which ferment ttie product, decomposing one or more of Its ingredients, producing objectionable odors and flavors, and yield ferments which in turn have the power of decomposing the product and deteriorating It in storage. In order to avoid unnecessary contamination oi milk, cream aud butter, these products should be produced and handled under cleanly conditions. The buruyard should be kept dry and free from manure so that the cows are not compelled to wade kneedeep in mud before they enter the stable. The stable must be kept free from accumulation of dirt and manure; the manure should be removed at least once daily; the bedding must be clean and the stable must be suiliciently ventilated to eliminate strong animal and manure odors; the floors should he sprinkled with water before sweeping and the sweeping must be done several hours before milking, so as to give the dust in the air a chance to settle before the milk Is exposed to the stable air. The cows must be kept clean, by preventing them from lying down on a filthy floor and their udder and flanks should be wiped off with a clean, damp cloth before milking commences; the currying of the cows should be done after and not before milking. Control Milk Vitamins by Ration Fed to Cow The vitamin content of milk, one of tbe few foods to contain ttie whole vitamin alphabet, varies according to the ration fed the cow, says the monthly Food Distribution." Vitamin A content of milk may be changed by varying the amount of this vitamin In the cow's ration. It quotes Dr. W. E. Krauss, assistant in the dairy department of the Ohio Experiment station as saying. This Is also true of vitamin B, although it U now thought that the cow can manufacture her own supply of this sub stance. Vitamin C content of milk can also be changed by changing the ration, says Food Distribution, but this factor is so easily destroyed by heut that other foods must be relied upon to furnish what is lacking. The Ohio Experiment station is now attempt! hr to increase the amount of vitamin D in milk' through a commercial feed con taining fish meal in the cow's ration. Irradiated ergosterol, the most potent source of vitamin D known, is being used In another test. w-wow. He was trying to say: Let me work, too. I would like to help. I want to be a useful dog. I have an idea, said his master, What? the others all asked. We'll have him wear a harness across ids back, a nice light harness and there will be a little box upon It. Then he can have a tiny bell attached to his collar so that it will ring as he runs along and moves his head. leople will notice him and will give money for the cause. Yes, well let you help, Whitey! From all the talking Whitey knew that something had happened and that it was about him. How pleased he was! He barked for joy. The very next day Whitey wore the box, and not only did his bell ring as he ran along, but he went up to people as they passed, barked pleasantly at them, and then shook his box. They could see what was written on the box and they all gave money to Whitey for the city children. Whitey was so proud that he had been able to help so much and how very, very proud and happy were all the members of Whiteys family and bis friends.

Standardized Cream Is Held Without Variation Where a standardized cream is sold, either of 20 per cent for coffee cream or 40 per cent for whipping, an effort should be made to hold to this test without any serious variatiou. A difference of ten turnr each minute on the separator crauk will change the test nearly 3 Yz per cent. Also any great change in the temperature of the milk at time of separation will affect the test. Losses from these may prove as serious as using a wornout machine or oue in which the bowl is out of balance. Although the newer models turn much easier than the older ones, yet those with power available are making use of either electricity or gasoline to help secure a uniform speed and also take some of the drudgery from the job. Cream Rises Somewhat Rapidly in Fresh Milk It is admitted," says Roy T. Harris of Wisconsin College of Agriculture, that cream rises somewhat more rapidly in fresh warm milk than it does in older milk at lower temperatures, and it would therefore seem possible that If milk were stirred until cooled or even stirred rather thoroughly once after the cooling process lias advanced somevvlijit, less cream would rise to the surface in the cun than would otherwise be the case. At the same time, it is held to be doubtful that this natural separation has any appreciable effect upon the nccurnry of the sampling. It is quite likely that the greater errors occur elsewhere. High Quality Product Cleuu barns, clean cows, clean milkers, and cooling Immediately after separation, all tend to produce a high quality product, hut probably most im-- j portant of all is the care of the uteri- sils which come In contact with the milk and cream. As t he dalrj uten-sils are handled on many farms, they are by far the most important source of bacteria. With proper attention their care may require less woik than Is usually given on farms producing an Inferior product !

Leguia was enough for Peru, or at least for Its army, so lie has been ousted from the office of president, together with his entire government. The revolutionary movement started In the province of Arequipa, where the troops, led by Lieut. Col. Sanchez Cerro, arrested some of their officers and took control of Arequipa, third city of the republic. The revolt spread rapidly to other provinces and was easily successful everywhere. Meanwhile there was surface tranquility In Lima, the capital, and President Leguia attended the races as usual. But this didn't Inst long. A military junta got busy in Lima, the cabinet was forced to resign, and a few hours later Leguia himself gave up his office and took refuge on the cruiser Grau. The vessel steamed away, the intention being to land the deposed dictator at some foreign port ; but the junta sent a wireless threat to have the officers court martialed if they did not return within 48 hours, and they yielded. At this wrlt4ng the fate of Leguia is uncertain. It was understood he would he put on trial for his misdeeds, this course 'being Insisted on by the students of Lima and also by Cerro. A temporary government was set up in Lima with Gen. Manuel MarlA Ponce at its head. However, Cerro went to tlie capital city within a few days, and his Arequipa junta was recognized as the real government of the country. Before resigning, Leguia designated first General Martinez and then General Sarmiento as heads of a new cabinet, hut the military revolutionists would accept neither. Leguia thereupon wrote his resignation, saying: I hereby close another chapter in Peru's history. The State department In Washington was informed that Lieut. Com. Harold F. Grow, U.

A report published by the Treasury department it is disclosed that IN the internal revenue receipts for the fiscal year June 30 last, were a little This was more than $3,0H),0Oti,000. just about $100,000,000 more than the receipts of the previous year. Most of the increase was registered in income taxes, which showed a gain of $78,000,000 over the 1020 fiscal year, notwithstanding the fact that the 1 per cent tax reduction voted by congress last December affected the quarterly payments of taxes paid in March and June of the present calendar year. This Increase was attributed largely to the exceptional prosperity enjoyed by corporations and Individuals In the calendar year 1020, against which the taxes collected in these two quarters were assessed. There was diversity of opinion as to whether or not It would be advisable or .possible to continue the per cent reduction for another year.
