The war of 1812 lasted nearly four years and cost $119,624,000. The Mexican war lasted a little more than three years and cost $174,199,000. OLD ROVER—SHEEP KILLER. In 2 rather densely populated re- gion of the Middle west last winter farmers complained of being annoyed by wolves. The chief loss was of sheep, though pigs and calves were also reported killed. A wolf hunt on a large scale was , organized in one township, and some two hundred men, on horse and foot, sallied forth to round up the predatory beasts. No wolf was “bagged” by this crowd, though two or three were killed by in- dividuals at other times. About the same time there was an epidemic of sheep-killing among the dogs of the vicinity. Some thought that the num- ber of the wolves was exaggerated, and that most of the killing was done by dogs. In any case it may have been that wolves set the example of killing, and that the dogs, having found partially-eaten carcasses where wolves had left them, acquired the taste for mutton in that way. Wolves or no wolves, however, dogs do kill sheep now and then in every sheep-raising community. ‘“Sheep- killing dog,” is a synonym with far- mer folk for all that is low and vile. But the fact is usually brought out by investigation that it is the half-starv- ed dog that is the leader in sheep-kill- ing. And it is not the homeless tramp dog alone that is habitually hungry. We are told nowadays that even chil- dren of well-to-do families may be un- der-nourished, and no one ever sus- pect it. Many persons let their dogs go hungry through forgetfulness, or because they under-estimate a. dog’s capacity for and need of food. Many who can ill afford to keep one dog keep two or three on a starvation di- et. I have known an old, almost toothless dog, belonging to a kindly- disposed family, to try to kill sheep, and to be a sort of leader of the kill- ers. His owners failed to provide him with animal food such as he could eat. The dog is carnivorous, but many dogs are fed no meat except the little that may cling to bones thrown them occa- sionally. The dog’s “open season” for sheep is winter, and one reason why dogs roam abroad on winter nights is that they are not provided with comforta- ble quarters at home. The dog should have a good kennel with plenty of warm bedding. With this, and suffi- cient food, he will not be easily tempt- ed to kill sheep. The kindest thing to do with the tramp dog, or the dog one is not able or willing to keep as he should be kept, is tc give him a pain- less death—though I should feel that I must give him a square meal first! If ‘here is any place where humane- ness is at a premium—that is, in dol- lars and cents—it is on the farm. It is not “sentiment” alone, though we should not be ashamed of what is call- ed sentiment toward our animal friends. It actually pays to be hu- mane.—By Beth Floyd, in Our Dumb Animals. om—————— tea—— Inspection of Eating Places Brings Good Results. Inspection reports of 3671 public eating and drinking places, including railroad dining cars operated in Penn- sylvania, were checked up by the Di- vision of Restaurant Hygiene, State Department of Health, during the past month. 3253 of these places were found to be operating in strict accord- ance with State laws regarding med- ical inspection of employees, non-use of common towel or drinking cup, and sanitary cleansing of all utensils used. During the month 76 proprietors, who had been notified to discontinue the use of the common towel, complied with the Department’s order, and 96 proprietors of places in which com- mon drinking cups were used reported tat they are now complying with the aw. This month inspections are being made of the roadside booths, which have sprung up like mushrooms along the main highways, but which, unless kept clean, may have a kick as serious as that of the mushroom’s first cousin —the deadly toadstool. Toward the end of the month the inspectors will turn their attention to the food and drink handlers at county fairs. i ———— ts Having the Confidence of the Public is Better Than a Bank Roll. And the confidence is what we are striving to attain. Perhaps you have been reading the ads placed in this paper every week. If so, you are in- terested and some time you will need spectacles or eye glasses. This is only the natural course of events. When the time arrives I would like to have an opportunity to prove that I am in a position to give unsurpassed service. Let me demonstrate the advantage of Made-to-order glasses. Dr. Eva B.
