J. L. EDMONDS on Be kind to and as considerate of your horses as you would want to be treated yourself, is a safe rule to follow in handling work stock during hot weather. Essentially the same rules which apply to the human being in hot weather also apply to the farm horse. Plenty, of water and the proper feed, careful driving, sufficient rest and the prevention of - overheating are the principal precautions to observe in caring for the g horse in summer. When horses are doing hard field work during hot weather, a barrel of water and a pail should be taken to the field so the horses can be watered once an hour. Since the freely perspiring work horse has a high salt requirement, ' he will stand the heat better when liberally supplied with salt. In extremely hot weather it may be necessary to reduce working The hours and lighten the load. noon rest period may be lengthened or work begun very early and stopped before noon. Some farmers ' have worked their successfully . horses at night.' Like human beings, horses that are off feed should not be expected to do a hard days work in summer, since it is too risky. Instead, such horses should be kept in the bam or on pasture where there is shade. When the sweat dries in, and the horse starts to pant and gets in his gait, he has been wcfcbly overworked. The careful horseman will stop and rest his team before this stagers reached. , An overheated horie should be put into the shade, and cold water or ice bags applied to his head, spine and legs. Serious cases of overheating are even difficult for experienced veterinarians to handle. Prevention is therefore especially important. Once the horse is overheated, even though he recovers, he is seldom able to do hard work during high temperatures. R.A.F.: Veterinarians Urge War Against Swine Diseases The governments recent appeal for increased swine production as an aid to national defense has had one quick result in most rural com-- , munities farmers are exerting new vigilance to guard against prevalent swine diseases which annually take a toll of nearly 30 per cent of the nations hog population. Hog cholera is being looked upon as public enemy No. 1 in the current drive to reduce swine losses because cholera kills more hogs other single disease. Veterinarians and livestock officials are urging utmost possible vigilance against fresh epizootics this season, and prompt control measures wherever cholera may make its appearance. Symptoms of the disease include sluggishness, a tendency to pile up, partial or total prostration, fever, and scours. At the first signs of such symptoms a veterinarian should be called. The best insurance against this No. 1 swine killer is to have pigs vacccinated against cholera around weaning time, says the American Foundation for Animal Health reWhen pigs are young they port. require less serum and virus, and the immunization generally lasts until they are ready for market. Cholera generally strikes so swiftly and kills so quickly that there is little that a farmer can do, once his hogs are down with the disease. That is why immunization is the best insurance against cholera losses. than any , $ Farm Notes A silage crop can be grown, harvested and put in the silo for about $2 a ton.

But it was undeniable that when Germanys march brought her to the Balkans and down into Greece that Russia had made unfriendly diplomatic statements and overtures, particularly in the case of Jugoslavia and Bulgaria. Observers did not forget that Churchill had told Russia, following the loss of the battle of Greece, you The event bore out will be' next! the prediction of the British premier, and the event was not long coming. In the German statements accompanying the declaration of war on Russia, it was stated that we gave Most obRussia half of Poland. servers thought then and now that there was 'considerable surprise and not a little chagrin in Nazi Germany that Russia had leaped in and captured half of the booty. It was regarded as one of the signposts of discord that lined the almost two years of pathway that Russia had traveled apparently hand in hand with Germany. There also was no question but that the visit of Sir Stafford Cripps as envoy to Russia was a recognition on the part of England that the regret over the alliance between the Reds and the Nazis was mutual. The feeling was general that Russia, having observed, having been inside the Nazi military machine, having learned lessons in the Finnish campaign, was beginning to feel herself strong enough to refuse German demands that it place its supplies and railway facilities under German control. Most certain it was that Russia was not completely ready, or it would have been her turn to declare the war and make the first move, for there was no feeliAg that Russia would have any scruples about treaty breaking.

Ask pour neighbor I over-tax- ed Most news commentators and analysts felt, when the National Guard was inducted into the federal service, that they would never get out after a years training. This was predicated on the double assumption that they would not be sufficiently trained in a year to permit them to return to civil life, and that, second, if the world crisis continued, they would be neededftto aid in the training of selectees.. Both of these assumptions turned out to be correct when the war de0 partment asked that Americas guardmen have their period of training extended. The department sent the recommendation to the President, and it seemed certain to ' be carried into effect. T: only immediate question was er the President himself had r to order it, or whether it must be submitted to congress. But either way, it seemed a certainty. The move to keep the Guard in training did not come as a .surprise to the Guardsmen themselves, for from time to time since they were first inducted, it was a general topic of conversation, and most of the men themselves felt that they were in for longer than a year, perhaps for the duration. , The first reason given by the army was that the Guard units now contained thousands of selectees, and that if the Guardsmen were returned to civil life it would disrupt the entire organization of the army. The Guards were inducted from last September to February, and the war department revealed that from being just a question of conversa- tion, now that the Guardsmen were in mid-yeof their training, the question was being daily put to the department from thousands of men: Are we in for a year or longer? The war department said the questions were right and proper, for the if they are going to be held in for much longer, will have to make adjustments in their civilian affairs. on how the prospects, The tip-owere came from Representative Wadsworth of New York, who introduced the draft bill, who said that congress would surely authorize another years training if the President requested it.

Many believed, however, that if Russia put up a good defense, and held the Germans at bay somewhat after the Chinese fashion of dealing with the Japanese, that the British move to a union with Turkeys southern frontier, might enable Britain to give Russia some aerial support in the Ukrainian district. The Syrian campaign, plus the holding situation in Northern Africa, was giving the British a slightly more favorable outlook on the progress of the war provided Russia was able to do anything more than France did in the way of defending herself against the Nazis. The fall of Damascus saw a city of 4,000 years history, a city about which wars had raged for centuries, once more conquered by an invader. The city was rich with Biblical tradition, for it was pn the road from Jerusalem to Damascus that St. Paul had his vision and was converted to Christianity.
