SHEEP SCAB DISCOVERED Disease Breaks Out Among Animals In Two Different Localities Sheep scab has been discovered in two different localities in Lane Coun ty, says N. S.

Dr. Derefllnger state veterinarian, Suggests that the farmers use "black-leaf-forty" or lime and sulphur to con trol this disease among their sheep, and fall dipping is best He does not look for any serious out-break of the contagion either in the county or the state. He also advises that the farmers,, before buying sheep look into the his tory of the animals and ascertain whether or not the herds where they cope from' contained the disease.

Ona Sura Sign Is Said to Ba an In creating Waistline. When does a man get old? What are the signs? Some will say Instantly crny hair, baldness, stiff knees, short ness of breath, and so on. An eastern authority rejects all of these as proofs of age and cites doctors to prove that there are two Invariable signs nn in creasing wulst line and n decrease of physical agility. These Indications may not show themselves until a man is forty or fifty, but they may manifest themselves at twenty-five. Whatever the time, the man Is old. This (s rather an arbitrary ruling, but 'it lias a sane basis no doubt. There are many men, of course, who by force of nature rather than any care of their own, retain a sparcness of figure until they arc far nlong In life, and usually with this slimncss is activity of move ment. But the average man not en raxed lu active physical labor that keeps superfluous flesh down Is ex tremely likely to develop Increased fcirth hi comparatively early years, and. whether or not it classes him unions: the old or even elderly, it does take him out of the realm of youth. However youthful a mun may feel, no one longer mistakes lilm for a boy when that big waist line comes. Indianapolis Star.

In his book, "A Soldier's Memories," JJlr George Youngbusband tells a typi cal story of Hudyard Kipling and Cecil Rhodes. It was during the Boer war, when they came to camp and introduced themselves uncouventlunully. As they were Ieavi:. the soldiers gathered to see and cheer them. Said Cecil Rhodes hastily: "Take off your cap; they are cheer ing you." Said Rudyard Kipling: "No, they ore not. They are cheering you. Take off your cap." Then some ono at their elbow sug gested: "I think they are cheering you both." Whereupon both, clinging close to gether for support, shyly took off tbeli caps. The Handy Man. The "Jack of all trades," known fa miliarly as the bandy man, Is a seri ous drawback to the industries of the United States, because his knowledge and training are not based on the funda mental rules of any craft. Such men arc the banc of any industry, and more especially of high grade machine shops, for their work cannot be relied upon. Doubtless it is a good thing to kuow something about everything, but tho perfect mechanic and high grade fore man Is the man who knows everything about something. George W.
