Dispose of Surplus Males.
Every farmer can raise more nnd

DEMAND FOR PUREBRED RAMS
According to Minnesota College Sheep
Industry Is Suffering From Short
age of Animals.
The sheep industry is suffering from
a shortage of purebred rains, accord
ing to mi announcement being sent out
by the animal husbandry department
of the Minnesota Coltefe of Agricul
ture. The announcement says that
the douand exceeds the supply, breed
ers having disposed of practically all
of fhelr available stock.
Because of the conditions the ani
mal husbandry department of the col
lege of agriculture Is offering Its serv
ices as ii clearing house for those who
wish to buy or sell. It asks Unit those
who have one or more purebred rams
Of serviceable age shall notify the de
partment, which will try to put them
In touch wlih buyers. All notices
should state flic breed, age and price
of the ranis offered.
PEDIGREE AND GUARANTEE.
An animal la like a machine.
To make a good machine re
quires that each part be of good
material and just the right
weight and strength. The good
animal must have Its parts devel
oped In the right proportion to
muki the type desired. The
adaptability of a machine nnd
the proportioning of Its parts can
be largely determined by looking
at It. However, the make of the
machine is the guarantee as to
its possessing or lacking quality.
Likewise in the animal a good
deal can be determined as to Its
type by looking at It. Its real
quality, however, cannot be de
termined In this way. To get at
this It becomes necessary to go
further back. The quollty was
put into the anlmul by Its par
ents, Its grandparents, Its great
grandparents, etc. This makes
It important to know that all
these parents had qualities that
would contribute to the making
of a good animal of the type
wanted. A pedigree Is a scheme
for keeping truck of the parents
of an animal. It is a guarantee
of what Is buck of the anlmul, of
what has contributed to its
make-up. It is this fact that
makes the purebred animal valu
able. North Dakota Experiment
Station.
DEHORN CALVES WHEN YOUNG
Treatment Is Painless If Applied Be
fore Animals Are Week Old Di
rections to Follow.
(By CARL J. MENZB, Forndale, Wash.)
Young calves can be painlessly de
horned If the treatment is applied be
fore they are one week old. Anyone
can do It if they follow directions:
Procure from a druggist a stick of
caustic soda or caustic potash It usu
ally comes In sticks five inches long
and the size of a lead pencil. Now
Clip the hulr off over the place where
tho horn can be felt. After this is
finished, wash with soap and water
Young Holstein Calf.
and thoroughly dry with u towel. Take
I be stick of caustic and wrap some pa
per around the end that is to be held
In tho bund. Now moisten the other
end and rub on each clipped spot al
ternately, two or three times, allowing
time for It to dry between each appli
cation. Don't get the stick too wet
nnd rub only where the horn Is to ap
pear, because If It gets on the eur
rounding skin It will eat the flesh
awuy and cause pain. After the treat
meht protect the calves from rnln, as
water on the head will cause the
caustic to run on the surrounding
skin.
ESSENTIAL TO LIFE OF SOIL
More Vegetation Must Be Turned Un
der to Replace That Burned Out
by Heat of Sun.
The time has coiuo when we must
turn under more vegetation to replace
Unit burned out by the heat of the Bun
and intense cultural methods. Vege
table matter is essential to the life
and yield of the soli. Regardless of
the amount of plantfood In the Boll,
before a good yield can be expected
the land must have enough organic
matter to make It light, mellow and
friable. The first essential Is vegeta
tion, then moisture, and next cultiva
tion. Do not be too persistent In
leaving the fields clean. A few weeds
may not be altogether objectionable.
BEST IMPROVEMENT OF SOIL
Much Easier to Maintain Productivity
of Land Than to Rebuild Soil
Robbed of Fertility.
If the soil Is neglected In nny re
spect In tho development of our sys
tem of farming, our agricultural struc
ture will become top-heavy. Soil Im
provement Is the foundation upon
which our structure of permanent agri
culture Is based. It is much easier to
maintain the productivity of the land
I bun It Is to rebuild u soil robbed of

New Commercial Possibilities In Way
of Industries May Add Thousands
of Workmen to Pay Rolls
of Factories.
The United States, under the dire
Stress of world war, is awakening to
new commercial possibilities in the
way of now Industries that will buy
their raw materials in this country in
stead of importing them as in the past,
adding thousands of men to the pay
rolls and keeping millions of dollars
here, according to the annual report of
Van H. Hannlng, director of the bureau
of mines, department of the Interior.
The report discloses the extent the
military authorities have to depend in
modem warfare upon the mineral In
dustry and Indicates In a cautious way
the part being taken by the bureau of
mines In obtaining a sufficient supply
of mineral essentials from American
mines and American metallurgical
plants.
Experts from the bureau have
searched the country far and wide for
the metals that would add strength to
the military arm of Uncle Sam and
have reported In most Instances not
only an abundance of these materials,
but have added that these same met
als, employed also In peaceful Indus
try, can he used to build up permanent
industries in the United States, per
haps destroying for all time the de
pendence of the United States upon
foreign countries for necessary raw
materials. These new industries have
already shown such growth as to add
materially to the American output.
This condition, according to the bureau
officials, Is equivalent to the production
of new tonnage for the use of the
United States.
Erecting Large Plant
It may seem paradoxical . that the
bureau of mines, created originally for
saving life In the mines, becomes lu
war time an active aid In tho prosecu
tion of the military aims of the United
States, but here are some of the Illus
trations ;
The bureau, co-operating with the
war department, sent C. L. Parsons,
chief chemist, to Europe to investigate
processes used there in the manufac
ture of nitrates, necessary in large
quantities In war time In the making
of explosives, and also used for ferti
lizer. His report and recommendation
were adopted in substance by the com
mittee on nitrate supply, and a large
plant for the production of nitric acid
for war purposes and ammonia for ag
ricultural purposes is In process of
erection. If this plant does what the
experts hope it will do, all of the nl
trates needed by the United States,
even In pence times, will ultimately be
made here, and It will no longer be
necessary to depend upon Chile, with
the constant fear that lu times of war
the supply may be cut off by a hostile
fleet. Even if In peace times the plant
Is not able to compete with Chile as a
source of nitric acid Itself, It can do
so In fertilizer material and this coun
trv will have the security that lu war
time the nitrates cun be made here,
With the present sharp decrease In
available ship tonnage nnd the partial
shutting down In shipments from
Spain uf Iron pyrites used in the man
ufacture of sulphuric acid, the bureau
of mines was called upon to find
the most available pyrlte resources In
the United States. The experts have
now located n number of promising
pyrlte mines nnd steps have been taken
to insure a full domestic supply of raw
material for the making of sulphuric
acid, which Is absolutely vital In war
time. It Is stated by the bureau's ex
perts that an American Industry sup
plied entirely by American row ma
terial may be the permanent outcome,
Supply of Manganese.
Manganese, used for the production
of high-grade steel, is another valuable
peace and war mineral that the bu
reau has been endeavoring to nna m
greet quantities In this country, the
steel Industry being at present uepenu
ent on Brazil for this ore. It has taken
quite n fleet of sorely needed vessels
to bring this ore to the United States.
W. C. Phalen, mineral technologist
has already visited the chief man
gnnese producing divisions of the
country, and his report Is that a con
siderable proportion of the nation's
requirements can be supplied. So
promising Is this situation, It is inti
mated that some of the vessels now
carrying ore from Brazil may soon be
released for other vital purposes.
It now looks very much as If the
United States has already permanent
lv established n potash Industry as a
result of Germany cutting off her ship
ments long before this country went to
war. Having depended heavily upon
Germany, which has a great natural
deposit of potash, this country was at
once thrown upon its own resources
for this necessary material, and bu
reau experts, in co-operation with
those of other bureaus, started to find
If possible the rnw materials in this
country. Such success has attenaeu
their effort, especially in obtaining
potash from the dust of cement mills,
that It Is declared the United States
will no longer be dependent upon any
foreign country for its potash supply.
Uncle Sam May Till Lands.
Hundreds of thousands of acres of
land In the United States, hitherto
unfilled, may be placed In cultivation,
Secretary Lane lately reported to con
gress. An appropriation of $1,900,000
was suggested for the purchase of
seeds and equipment for working the
land under the direction of the secre
tary. A survey conducted by the depart
ment has shown that approximately
000,000 acres of land on various re
clamation projects and large areas of
Indian lands are susceptible of culti
vation.

SALTS IF BACKACHY

Stop eating meat for a while if
your Bladder is trouming
you
When you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
It generally means you have been eat
ing too much meat, says a well-known
authority. Meat forms uric acid
which overworks the kidneys in their
effort to filter it from the blood and
they become sort of paralyzed and
loggy. When your kidneys get slug
gish and clog you must relieve them,
like you relieve your bowels; remov
ing all the body's urinous waste, else
you have backache, sick headache,
dizzy spells; your stomach sours,
tongue is coated, and when the wea
ther is bad you have rheumatic
twinges. The urine is cloudy, full of
sediment, channels often get sore, wa
ter scalds and you are obliged to seek
relief two or three times during the
night.
Either consult a good, reliable phy
sician at once or get from your phar
macist about four ounces of Jad Salts ;
take a tablespoonful In a glass of
water before breakfast for a few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, com
bined with llthla, and has been used
for generations to clean and stimulate
sluggish kidneys, also to neutralize
acids In the urine so it no longer irri
tates, thus ending bladder weakness.
