The coal strike up to date has
cost more than the Civil war, and the
railroad and coal strikes together
have cost more than the war of 1812
and the Mexican war combined. 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.

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.

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.
