Rice Hulls Used to Adulterate Cattle Foods. Attention Is respectfully called to the fact that quite recently wo have found that rice hulls are used in Pennsylvania to adulterate feeding stuffs. Rice hulls are of very Inferior vuluo, containing nearly 40 per cent, of woody fiber and a large amount of slliela or sand. The outer surface of the hull Is harsh and rasping, while the edges carry sharp projections which have a tendency to Irritate the digestive tracts of animals, and If fed in quantities may cause their death. Rice hulls are, therefore, of little value as a food, det rimental to the health of farm animals and sometimes even dangerous to their lives. So far, rice hulls have been found us an adulterant of wheat bran only, but they may find their way into mixed feeds and standard goods. Every dealer should be on ijis guard against this grossly fraudulent practice, and for the sake of his reputation should refuse to handle rice hulls or any feed which is adulterated with the same. In buying feeds from the manufacturer or jobber, the dealer should he sura that the amount of protein and fat fs guaranteed, and also should demand a written guar antee that the material is not adulter ated In any manner. Every feed dealer in the state should value bis reputation. He is responsible for selling adulterated goods and for any Injurious e(Tects( caused by feeding materials which he handles. This department hopes for the co-operation of dealers to the end that the best results may bo secured and the quality of our feeding stuffs may be im proved. ' N. B. CRITCHFIELD, See. of Agriculture.

Further demonstrating that the Record is not trying to build tho ex tension of the Shawmut railroad through this place on paper Is being made by the activity of a large force of civil engineers who arrived In this place la9t Friday. The1 oora below the Bond & Cooper building, next to the B., R. & P. railroad, was leased for a year by the chief of tho surveyors and the place is being fitted up for a supply and general drafting room. Alreudy the work of running lines for the grad ing of the extension Is being pushed forward and the corps will be kept on this end of the lino un'il all details are completed. It is not stated just when the construction work will be Btarted, but reliable authority states that it will be commenced In a few weeks. The work of the extension will probably be done under contract as Beveral contractors are already pro paring eBtimatos covering the extension between Hydes and Brookvllle. It Is good news to the people of this section that the extension of the Shawmut is now past the. stage of uncertainty. Brockwayville Record. At least ninety-nine per cent, of the things which worry and perplex the average human being aro uot worth a thought, much less the loss of a mo ment's peace of mind. It Is the nature of some people to fuss and fume and work themselves into a frenzy every now and then and they are bound to do It, cause or no cause. When people get angry It is usually about nothing. WherJ they quarrel It Is almost In variably concerning absolutely Incon sequential matters. Selfishness and jealousy are at the bottom of most human woes, and these piggish traits feed entirely on imaginary wrongs. Punxsutawney Spirit.

Reynoldsville Hardware Co. 9 9 in in 0 0 9 MUZZLE YOUR DOG. Burgess Gourley Has Issued a Notice that All Dogs Must be Muzzled Sixty Days. Owing to the fact that a mad dog ran our streets on Tuesday morning of List week, bitting six children, and no one knows how many dogs It bit, Burgess L. L. Gourley and President of Council Dr. J. C. Sayers have Issued a circular notifying all persons owning, keeping or harboring a dog or dogs, within the limits of Roynoldsvillo borough, to im mediately muzzle or shut up such dog, or dogs, for a period of sixty days from date of the notice, Dec. 9. Considering the great danger poople are exposed to and how helpless they are, especially children, when a mad dog runs our streets, every owner of a dog should be willing to muzzle his dog for the time specified, sixty days, with out being compelled to do so. One hu man life is of more value than all the dogs In Reynoldsville and community, especially If It is a momber of your family. It is to be hoped that there is not an owner of a dog in Royr.oldsvllle that has so little regard for his neigh bors and hla children as to refuse to muzzle his dog for two months. Even If a person is bitten and the Pasteur treatment Is a success, It Is a very se vere and expensive treatment. The treatment alone, without the expense of getting the patient to and from Pitts burg, coots from $125.00 to $150.00. Clerical Orders for igo6.
