I'lilictMl, inxl tl fit, Too
A. H. Wheeler, city marshal of
Alliance, who did speciul police serv
ice at the state fair, reports the fair
thlt year the beM ever held in the
state. The depart inents were tilled
with exhibits that were deflated b
experts to be the best ever placed on
exposition, at any fair in the I'nited
States, or elsewhere.
The police department had little
trouble this year as there appeared
to be but f"W crooks on the grounds
or In the city of Lincoln. The man
agement placed a ban on all fake
schemes, and pickpockets and other
light-finger d gentry 'seemed to think
that the state fair waa not a good
field for their operations.
The number of automobiles park
ed on and near the grounds was
something remarkable. In fact, then
was hardly room for the large num
ber of motor vehicle. The railroads
felt the effect of the automobile
transportation but in spite of the au
tos, the steam lines did a tine busi
ness, carrying many thousands to
and from the fair.

SORE SHOULDERS OF HORSES
Don't Let Animais Work Single Hour
in lll-Fitting Collar Be Watch
ful in Spring.
illy OKoKCjK II GI.OVF:il, Colorwdo Af
rlculiural College. Fort Collins, Colo.)
We know how annoying It Is to be
obliged to lay a horse off in the mldet
of spring's work, on account of sore
Blioulders or sore neck.
IV) not forget that It la your owa
fault.
Some wen always make sore shoul
ders, some never do. A good man Is
often seen In front of his horses, ad
justing their collars and hames. Don't
let a horse work au hour In aa ill
Itting collar.
The greatest care is needed in the
spring when work first starts, for the
horse will shrink and the collar wiU
won be too large. A collar that la
too large will injure the shoulders
more than one that is too tight.
Imagine a man trying to play base
ball before his hands have become
toughened. A horse works with hie
shoulders. Keep them well. Look at
them several times a day. Keep the
shoulders and the collar clean. It a
shoulder gets sore it la the driver's
fault; hold htm responsible.
"WARBLE" GRUBS IN SPRING
t Presence of Insects Is Found In Tu
mors on Backs of Cattle
Plsn for Removing. -
! .
I j
Hy . W. IIOWAftu, Minnesota Statioa.)
Owners of cattle should be on the
lookout for warbles on the backs ot
their animals this spring.
Evidence of the-presence of these
flics is found in Tumors or warblee
on the backs of cattle. In the spring
or early summer from these warbles
drop grubs which burrow into the
ground and after about a month
emerge as flies. These flies lay their
eggs on the legs of catt'o, t'.ie cattle
li k the eggs c.T, v afu-r a time the
warbles appear on th-j backs of the
cattle.
The grubs mny bt reuoved by pros
sure around the w rubles, and thea
crushed; or they ni iy be destroyed by
t'te injection ol pr ase or oil into the
opening of tlie tuir.uro.
In Europe from 20 to 40 drops ot
tincture of Iodine is sometimes ia
Jnctc to kill the grubs.

BUSINESS OF THE BROOD SOW
Failure to Produce Good-Sized Litters
and Nourish Them Often Due
to Lack of Milk.
The business of the brood sow Is to
produce good-sized litters of healthy
pigs and nourish them liberally until
weaning time. In so far as she fails
in this she falls in the purpose for
which she is kept.
The farmer who keeps a half dozen
or a dozen sows for bleeding purposes
finds half of them, perhaps, capable
ot fulfilling the maternal functioa
well, while the other half do It only in
differently. Quite as often as not the
difficulty Is the lack ot capacity to
give milk enough for the litter, and
the pigs are in a state of semi-starvation
throughout the entire nursing
period.
RIDDING PASTURES OF BURS

THE NEBRASKA STOCKMAN, 50c a yr., $2.00 for five years
Pests Not Only Cause Annoyance to
the Sheep Owner, but Decrease
Price of Wool.
Nothing is so trying to the shees
owner as burs. Be as careful as he
will, these pests will spring up, caus
ing not only annoyance, but often loss.
A fleece infected with matted burs al
ways sei's for less than clean wooL
Thus, burs are a direct loss to every
dock keeper.
The remedy f Only onerid the pas
ture fields. That's another story, If
there are many, but cultivated crops,
a system ot rotation, and constant use
of the hoe will rid any farm of this
serious weed pest
