IreventJBIncUlejrty Vaccination.
In Epito of tho fact that for moro than
four years tho experiment station at
Stillwater has, without charge, supplied
vaccino for tho prevention of blackleg in
cattle to all citizens of Oklahoma who
requested it, losses from this prevent!
ble disease are frequent. The operation
of vaccination is simple and tho results
are satisfactory, losses in most cases
being stopped at once. Tho station has
issued a bulletin describing blackleg
and tho easy way in which it may be
prevented, and Eeeks the co-operation
of all in stamping out this disease. All
that citizens of Oklahoma have to do to
procure as much vaccine as they wish is
to write to the experiment station at
Stillwater, stating how many cattle are
to be vaccinated and that the one mak
ing the request is the owner of the cat
tie. All cattle under 2 years of age
should be vaccinated once in every six
months, and all cattle dead from black
leg should be burned or buried at once
without skinning.
To rrecnt Scours.
Nothing is better for preventing
scours in pigs than some crushed oat
and barley slop run through a screen to
remove most of the hulls, which should
be placed in a low trough in a corner of
the pen. The young pigs go for this
greedily. At two months old they are
ready to wean, when they should bo put
in two large pens, culling out the weak
er ones and putting them in pens made
vacant by grouping three agreeable
sows. Much more skill is required to
raise young pigs in winter than in sum
mer. After taking them away from
their dams, feed warm new milk for the
first meal, and after that warm skim
milk, with a good sprinkling of shorts
in it, increasing the quantity each day
until about the consistency of thin por
ridge. A good way is to mix a quart of
oil meal with each barrel of feed, and
have a box in the corner of each pen
containing wood ashescharcoal and a
little salt and sulphur. Field and Farm.
Replenishing Fertility.
A crop of twenty-five bushels of wheat
per acre removes from the soil 10 pounds
of nitrogen, 23 pounds of potash and 10
pounds of phosphoric acid in the straw
In the grain there is removed 27 pounds
of nitrogen. S pounds of potash and 12
pounds of phosphoric acid. This is
equal to the ingredients of a fertilizer
containing about 205 pounds nitrate of
soda, 65 pounds muriate of potash and
125 pounds phosphate rock. Unless the
soil is well supplied every year with the
substances removed therefrom it must
eventually deteriorate. Rotation of
crops, using clover in the list, will pre
vent loss of nitrogen, but if farmers sell
produce they muEt necessarily bring
something back on the farm to take the
place of the mineral matter removed.
Dryinsr Cows Before Calvtntr.
We like to give a cow about four
weeks' rest between calves; are unable
to do so in a good many cases, as it is
almost impossible to get them dry, but
when possible like every cow to have at
least four weeks rest, as she needs this
to maintain her vitality and produce a
strong calf. If a cow is milked inces
santly from year to year, yon will get
one of three things and perhaps all of
them: a broken-down cow, a reduced.
supply of milk or a weak calf.
Some will maintain that a good cow,
fed a grain ration, will milk continually
year after year and give more milk than
an equally good one that has an annual
rest ; but I am satisfied that a cow to be
a profitable" worker for a long term of
years and produce calves as good or bet
ter than their dams, must have an an
nual rest. We hear occasionally that a
cow is a machine; is one fitting if you
compare her with a hard-sense she
is, out me comparison is more
like an overworked business
business man: how well they enjoy
their vacation and with increased eager
ness take up their duties and are able to
accomplish more, than the man who
plods along year after year without a
rest! Of course there are exceptions to-
all rules, but I am firmly convinced that
the breeder who adheres to the plan of
milking continually will decrease the
vitality of his herd, consequently their
productive powers.
A good cow will milk continually if
fed a grain ration, but it is not best for
her to do so, unless milk is the only
consideration. A milkman who buys
his cows and sells as soon as their milk
ing period 4s over, may find continuous
milking best, but the dairyman or
breeder who wishes to build up the pro
ducing powers of his herd, will do bet
ter to give each cow an annual rest. She
will produce as much milk, do it more
economically, will keep in better health,
and will be more likely to produce
calves that will develop into cows better
than their dams.
How many of the really great cows ,
that have been milked, incessantly for
years, have reproduced themselves? Wo
have made as many large yearly records
as most herds, and the longer we Teed
cows the more we believe they need an
annual rest. The cow that will give
large returns for small expenditure of
feed is the cow to breed and feed for.

Points In Batter Slaking-.
Butter making has undergone many
changes of late years in the line of wash
ing, salting and working. Formerly it
was churned until it was one solid maEb;
it was washed once, salted and worked.
It was thought best to churn at a tem
perature of about 02 degrees, but grad
ually tho temperature has been lowered
until now it is not unusual to churn as
low as 48 degrees. A low temperature
has many advantages. The loss in but
ier fat will be less, the butter will need
less washing and have better body than
when churned at a higher temperature
With proper precaution, the loss of but
ter fat in churning need not be more
than about one-hundredth of 1 per cent.
The loss depends largely upon the tem
perature and tho evenness of ripening.
If the cream has been gathered for sev
eral daye, unless the oldest has been
held at a low temperature to prevent
any partial ripening, or it has been
ffil
thoroughly stirred each time new cream
was added, it will not bo evenly ripened
and the loss will bo unduly large Loss
time will be required to churn at a high
temperature, but it will bo at tho ex
pense of butter fat.
Wlim to no to rrcvent macules'.
Tho calves that havo not yet shown
any syniptons of the disease should bo
removed at-once from tho infected pas
ture and put on short feed for a week or
more. Tho old-time practice of giving
each calf a dose of glaubers or epsom
salts and a little saltpeter is also to bo
recommended. Full reliance, however,
should not be put upon these measures ;
the calves should be vaccinated as soon
as possible. Tho vaccino matter is pre
pared from the products of the diseased
muscular tissue, and when properly
made and applied causes no appreciable
reaction in tho vaccinated calf, yet gives
to the animal a marked degree of im
munity. The vaccine can bo secured
from the United States bureau of animal
industry, through tho Missouri state
university at Columbia. It is supplied
free, in exchange for data to lo returned
upon printed blanks. Directions for iuo
accompany each lot of vaccine. Black
leg vaccine may also be had from sev
eral commercial producers whoso ad
vertisements are to bo found iu the farm
and stock papers.
In a week or ton days after vaccina
tion tho calves may Ihs safely returned
to the infected pasture. When the calves
a few weeks old are vaccinated, it is well
to revftccinmte them" six or eight months
later.
Sheep Breeder Notes
When selecting from a Mock of owes it
is not always wise to choose tho bii, fat
ones, as such are often those which are
poor breeders or have never raised a
lamb.
Anyone who will give faithful busi
ness attention to hi flock and do unto
his customers as lie would "wish to be
done unto" can make money out of
sheep these prosperous times.
The profits lb be derived from a flock
depends considerably upon its manage
ment. A go:! caretaker will make-considerable
money out of the sanio Hock
that will lose money to tho ioor man
ager. Pure-bred lambs should have a small
grain ration even when on extra good
pasture. The outlay incurred is more
than repaid by superior growth, to say
nothing of the relief such feeding brings
to the ewe
Sheep intended for show, if washed at
all, should be washed well in advance of
the show, so as to allow time for the
proper flow of yolk and the fleece to as
sume its normal condition.
The aim of some shepherds should be
to get all the growth possible out of his
pure-bred lambs whilo they are under a
year o'd. After this age they seem pret
ty well able to look out for themselves
The hindquarters of show ewes are
sometimes scalded by becoming saturat
ed with their own urine, and unless no
ticed and attended to in time, becomes
so sore that the wool falls off. Vasaline
is both a preventive and remedy for
such tronble.
The English Shropshire Sheep Breed
ers' Association will give 10 to be
awarded to the exhibitor who wins the
largest amount of money to the Shrop
shire sheep classes at the Worlds Fair
at St Louis with sheep imported from
Great Britain during 1904.
In selecting your lambs for show re
member it's not the biggest lamb that
wins, but the biggest good lamb. It is
always well to select several more than
the number which you intended show
ing so as to be perpared for accidents,
such as sickness and death.
In England, on October 4, 1891, a
bunch of Cotswolds were weighed and
turned on a field of rape. On tho 11th
of November, when they were reweighed
they showed a gain of 88 pounds. If ac
cording to this rape is not an ideal sheep
food we would like to know what is.
Theearlier the lambs are weaned, pro
vided their systems are capable of diges
ting vegetable foods the more rapid is
their progress. To allow the lamb to
harrass the ewe when it is well able to
take care of itself is wrong. As soon as
the pastures get hard and dry the Iambs
should be put on rape or second growth
clover. The ewes will keep in good
enough condition on less luxuriant
pasturage.
The value of a rape field cannotbe over
estimated. For sheep in particular and
farm stock generally it is par excellence
the ration Summer aud Fall. Where
the rapo field is at hand there is little
fear of the flock losing in condition even
in times of severe drougth . Sheep on

Miserable Mothers.
CHILDREN ROBBED OF THEIR
BIRTHRIGHT.
The most serious thing in life is ma
ternity. The child who inherits weak
ness is handicapped for life in the strug
gle for existence. The weak and sickly
mother surely devotes her offspring to
misery and misfortune. The romantic
idea of marriage is based on love and love
alone. The scientific idea of mnrringe
demands sound health as a basis of mat
rimony. The utter helplessness of love is
written in a thousand experiences of
young motherhood. The child, the
mother would die for, cries iu her arms,
and she is too weak and worn to comfort
it. She can do naught but weep in
sympathy.
As surely as the most serious thing in
life is maternity so the most necessary
thing for the prospective mother is pre
paration. For preparation is possible.
There is, in general, no need for the
weakness and weariness so often associ
ted with maternity. There is no need
for the nervous anxiety, the prolonged
birth pangs, and after enervation, so
commonly experienced by mothers.
In this day, even women understand
the training necessary for athletic ex
ercise. Thej- know that to successfully
sustain the strain of outdoor sports they
must prepare themselves by training.
And yet the average woman will face the
great strain of maternity without the
slightest preparation for the extraordin
ary event Defore her. Nerves, muscles are
all to be submitted to an extraordinary
strain and yet there is no.attempt to fit
them for the ordeal.
PROPER PREPARATION.
The fact needs to be impressed on
every woman that she can prepare for
the strain of motherhood as she can pre
pare for any other extraordinary demand
to be made upon the vital forces. The
nature of this preparation is well set
forth in the following letter :
"I take pleasure in informing you of
the birth of a boy in perfect health, on
May iSth, 1S09," writes Mrs. L. E. Corti,
of waltonvilfe. Pa., Box 25. "I cannot
find words sufficiently strong to express
to you my thanks, for the baby's coming
was almost without pain, and when my
husband arrived with the doctor the child
was already bom. The neighbors who
were with me, and my husband and the
doctor could not belie-e their eyes. Hav

Four Hundred in London.
In tho United States there has crown
up an institute which was called the
"400." Rapidly thi? curions system is
being adopted in London, and unless the
unforseen occurs the "society" there will
soon be composed almost entirely of
rich and reckless persons, who through
the press, have attained social promin
ence. Many of the finest houses in the
town and country have come into their
possession and these thoy have turni-died
with the utmost luxury. They havo ac
quired some of the most valuable art
treasures. The most precious jewels,
they wear the most extravagant cos
tumes, thoy occupy the best boxes at
the opera and at the theater, they drive
a the most striking carriages and they
give the most exclusive ontertainmonte.
Cleveland Points Backward.
Grover Cleveland has declared his be
lief that there is an opportunity for
Democratic success in the coming Presi
dential election.
But the former President names con
ditions tinder which that opportunity
must bo embraced which will not appeal
to all tho Democrats in the land. He
siiys in the first place that the fighting
forces of tho Democracy must not be
summoned to a third defeat in a 6trango
cause. They must .Iks given the truo
rallying cry.
Of course ho means that Bryanism, in
all ite phases, must be abandoned. ' Ob
solete issues and questions no longer
challenging popular interest," ho says,
"should be manfully abandoned." 'I hat
of course, applies to the issues raided by
Mr. Bryan, but in tho next breath Mr.
Cleveland urges the raising of tho iesue
or Tariff reform, and an appeal to the
people of economy in the expenditure
of public money, as well as an arraign
ment of tho Republicans for having
made broken promises. Ho would alBo
attack the Republican policy with
respect to tho Philippines.
But is not Mr. Cleveland toying with
obsolete issues himself? Did not tho
American people put tho seal of their
disapproval upon Tariff reform in 181)0?
Did thoy not express their approval of
tho Philippine policy in 1900? Is it not
poesiblo that Mr. Cleveland is as much
of a back number as Mr. Bryan is in his
way?
Of course this is a question for Demo
crats to decide', and thoy will have to
meet it. Cleveland "Leader."
A Republican Platform.
Tho address of United Suites Senator
Aldrich of Rhode Island at Providenco,
in that btnto, might well bo adopted as
having tho right matter for the national
platform of the Republican party. Sen
ator Aldrich called the attention of his
hearers, lirst, lo lw brilliant record of
the Republitau party in the past, and
living child. I tell everybody this happy
event wis due to the help of God and of
your medicines. I shall never be without
your medicines henceforth and shall
never fail in recommending your F
vorite Prescription.' I have used the
medicines which you prescribed with the
best results.
"Our hearts are full of gratitude to
you for your medicines, which have given
us the happiness of having a living child
of our own, after so much suffering and
disappointment.
"I recommend Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription to all young women who
are in the same condition that I was in
as one of the best remedies in existence.
I have used eigth lwttles and find my
self in perfect health. Accept my lest
wishes for your welfare to the end of
your days."
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription has
been the means of preparing thousands
of women for hnppy motherhood. It
prevents or cures nausea, tranquilizes the
nerves, encourages the appetite and in
duces refreshing sleep. It imparts great
vitality and muscular vigor so that the
baby's advent is practically
painless. It gives the
mother strength to give
her child, and is an un
rivaled tonic for nursing
mothers.
WOMEN ARK SURPRISED
at the prompt and perm,
nent benefit derived from
the use of "Favorite Pre
scription." Its effects are
not transient and tempor
ary, but they conduce to a
condition of womanly well
being, which seems often
times like a renewal of
youth, so markel are iti
effects and so lasting thf
vigor which it imparts.
Mrs. Orrin Stiles, ol
Downing, Dunn Co., Wis.,
writes: "I have Iwen in

to the wonderfully effective diplomacy

dross Corruption in Russian Navy
Yards.
Tho Czar is furious at the discovery of
gross corruption in tho Russian navy
yards, whore tho now battle ships and
cruisers intended to strengthen tho far
Eastern squadron are being built. The
discovery was made as a result of the
sinking of a gunlwat which had recently
been finished, and which went to tho
bottom as a result of firing a salute with
0110 of its heavy guns.
Tho discharge of tho gun was so shat
tering that the pl.Ues were loocened and
the lxiat went down iu a few minutes.
A Swedish syndicate t-eciired tho con
tract for raining her, but when the men
got to work they found wood and putty
whero thero should have been steel.
The ship, iu fact, went to pieces when
the attempt was made to raiso her.
Tho story reached the ears of the czar,
who ordered a thorough inspection of
all government arsenals, docks and navv
yards. This inflection brought out that
tlio huge naval ptores in St. Petersburg
which were supposed to be filled with
enormous quantities of provisions and
naval stores of every kind were nlinr.pt
empty. On the following night all the
other buildings, which had not been in
spected,, burst into flames in ten differ
ent places, and in tho morning there
was nothing left bat the walls. Iti
Ixtlicvcd incendiarism wan resorted to to
bide similar fr.itnlg.
It has bevn found that the worku.g
men in the navy yard h.ne l ecu puttii g

with wooden plugs and selling the riveth

Tim rzar is now said to have ordered a
disclmrg.- of nil men in charge of the
construction of these ships, anil tin
work will be carried 011 under tho direc
tion of naval engineers iiiijiorted from
Denmark.
The Missouri "Bird of Paradise."
Tho more Missouri tees of the auto
mobile the better it likoH the mule, says
The Youth's ConqxinHin. Thi? at least
is the verdict of IWm inter Wilson of
Macon, who-c advice about hoiseless
carriages on ruritl delivery routes ha.l
been solicited by an Illinois man. lhe
reply was, "Slick to the mule."
The Missouri liird of Paradi-, he
wrote, will go where no auto would dare
to tread. He will haul you over tooec
fifty-three clay hills on time or kick
holes through them ami go under.
Nothing will discourage htm. You
never have lo stop to fix him. You
don't have to take a monkey wrench
and a kit of burglar' tools along. A
govd tout club L the only instrument
he has any reflect for.
There's no danger of his blowing up.
Difficult roads only inspire him to great
er efforts. After colliding with a tree or
a brick house the auto is sent to the
junk shop, but the mule is only brighter
and gayer and stronger after each colli
sion. It's the thing he runs against
that goes to the scrap pile.
A mule eats mote than aii automo
bile, but he gives greater results.
