VETERANS OF THE MARINE

Washington Aug 6 — Veteran
campaigners of the United States
Marine Corps who saw service in
Haiti and who are now with the ex-
peditionary force in France went to
the latter place with a good working
knowledge of the French language
The national language of Haiti is
French and our “sea soldiers” were
quick to get a smattering of it
Haitien French and the French of
the Parisian are not unlike and the
United States Marines who saw ser-
vice in the little island republic in the
Caribbean during the revolution
have found their knowledge of French
extremely useful in their present ‘sur-

wata county’s first “slacker” to be
apprehended by the federal authori-
ties Buster who is alleged to be
about 29 years old did not register
and upon the fact being brought to
Ihe attention of pie authorities
Deputy United States Marshal Jim
Brown went to Hayden where Buster
was attending a picnic and placed
the man under arrest The “slacker”
was brought to this city and registered
and was taken late Monday afternoon
to Bartlesville for arraignment be-
fore the United States commissioner
It is understood that Buster will
be given the number of the first man
exempted A “slacker” cannot claim
exemptions and although Buster has
several small children he will he
obliged to serve
There seems little doubt but that
Buster is of draft age although he
is alleged to have stated that he did
not know his age The records of
the court clerk’s office show that
Buster in his application for a mar-
riage license on January 19 1908
swore that he was 20 years of age and
filed the consent of his parents to his
marriage It is also stated that the
Indian roll book also shows him to be
of draft age

are on the track of others who did
not register and arrests are expected

SMITH FORM-A-TRUCK RE-
DUCES INSURANCE RATES
Many cities "and towns srs effect-
ing a reduction in their insurance
rates by equipping the fire depart-
ments with motor trucks to take the
place of the slow-going and unreli-
able horse-drawn vehicles By in-
creasing the efficiency of their de-
partments through motorizing their
equipment the possibilities for pro-
perty destruction by fire are greatly
decreased caueing less fire risk to
the insurance companies Con
sequently the rates are reduced caus-
ing a big saving of money for the
city
Not only does' a motorized depart-
ment mean a saving for the city
fathers but also to the business houses
and residents of the city maintain-
ing this efficient and up-to-date
fire fighting truck The Smith
Motor Truck Corporation has recent-
ly placed on the market a light truck
equipped with complete standard firp
department apparatus and is now
filling orders that have long been
waiting Large cities are adopting
the light truck as well as the smaller
towns that are discarding the un-
reliable volunteer system Small
cities- that formerly- hesitated- at
buying heavy fire trucks due to their
high price no longer abandon
thoughts of motorizing
These trucks are so geared that
they are capable of high speed at an
increased power which is an impor-
tant item to be considered when in-
stalling fire equipment Hills sand
and mud ara no bugbear to this auto
truck
Not only is there a saving in in
surance but also a big saving is ef-
fected in the maintenance of fire
auto trucks These two items play
big part in placing the light motor
truck among the equipment of many

DISEASES OF COWS
Bleat er Haven le Meet Often Ceased
by Bating Wet eleven
Bloat in cattle is also known aa he-
ren or tympanites It is character-
ised by a filling up of the left Sank
and by tbs formation of gas writes G
a Coon D V M in KlmbnU’s Dairy
Farmer : It is brought about by n wide
variety of conditions bat chiefly by
sating spoUed feed or feed that is wet
with dew or rain er it may result
from eating too fast which produces
indigestion with n rapid fermentation
and formation of gas It may also re-
itflt from choke due to the closing of
the gullet which prevents the belch-
ing of the gee and consequently the
retention of gee causes the bloating It
may also result from the eating of fro-
aen roots or grass er vegetable each
aa turnips cabbage end the like It
is censed most often from eating clo-
ver which is wet with dew or rain and
In many cases Is fatal before the ani-
mal is found
Tha sweUIng in the left flank be-
comes so great that it sometimes ex-
tends above the level of the beck
Breathing becomes fast and dlfflcult
Tbe eyes have an nnxlonannd painful
expression As bloating continues tbe
animal shows symptoms of great pain
and may reel and stagger when it
walks Death le caused from the
pressing forward of tbe diaphragm
upon tbe lungs which results la as-
phyxiation ft the animat is in immediate dan-
ger it should be tapped immediately
If it la not possible to procure imme-
diately a trocar which is made espe-
cially for tapping use a 'sharp butcher
or pocket knife Do not attempt to
procure antiseptics and sterilize the
spot where the Incision Is to be made
If tbe cow to in immediate danger
The animal should be tapped midway
between tbe last rib sad tbe point of
the hip and about the same distance
from tbe backbone When the animal
to not in Immediate danger a rope gag
to made by tying knots in a rope and
placing this bunch of knots in tbe
mouth and passing the ends of the
rope up ever the head where they ere
tied The animal by chewing the
knots in an effort to dislodge them
will cause the secretion of saliva with
swallowing The gas will then pass
off by way of the gullet or esophagus
There era several anti-ferments that
are good for the treatment of bloat in
preventing the formation of the gas
From two to fonr tablespoonfuls of
spirits of turpentine given in one-half
pint of linseed oil or In milk will some-
times be all that to required Possibly
the best treatment to one-half table-
spoonful of formalin in one quart of
water as a drench This treatment

OVERALLS FOR HORSES
Method of Protecting Animals From
Flies In Hot Weather
The following way of protecting
horses against flies described In Popu-
Ur Mechanics might be found useful
In other regions than those mentioned
During the summer months In the
Canadian agricultural communities ad-
jacent to Hudson and James bays farm-
ers ere forced to swathe their horses In
' flam av--eijvy y m
heavy cotton overalls to save them
from the painful bites of big bull flies
These insects are very prevalent in the
fields and make necessary the use of
coverings that will protect practically
all of an animal’s body Aa a rale the
legs of a horse are left bare below
the knees but with this exception and
that of hie nose be to fully clothed
Tbe hood that fits over the bead covers
the ears and has small openings to
accommodate the eyes : When robed
in this way the horses are able to work
without serious interference
' r 8c That Collar Fit
Farm ’ horses usually begin tbe
spring’s work in good condition end
during tbe early spring and summer
shrink rapidly in weight Collars fit
aU right at tbe start bat soon tbe
necks are smaller and the collars are
loose and If the weather to hot shoul-
der trouble begins Then the "eweat”
pad to put In to fill out tbe collar to
fit the neck which it does not do nt
all The draft against the neck re-
mains unchanged and tbe poor horse
goes ahead pushing against a collar
that does not bog dose to the neck
A good teamster will look to tbe col-
ter adjustmeht every morning before
"he leaves the stable -

A LESSON FROM THE ARMY
Cities towns and smaller com-
munities in Oklahoma as well as in
other states might learn many useful
lessons in sanitation and hygiene
lessons which would save valuable
lives and prevent an enormous
amount of sickness by studying the
precautions with which the United
States government is building the
sixteen cantonments planned for the
training of our soldiers It is esti-
mated that 40000 soldiers will be
trained in each of these cantonments
so that each will be in reality a gooc
sized city -
Careful analysis has been made
under the direction of the government
of the water supplies in the vicinity
of every cantonment Chemical and
other precautions are being taken to
render it pure Elaborate plans are
being carried out to insure proper
sewage disposal Not only are sites
chosen which are free from malaria
but precautions are taken against the
spread of infection When it is
taken into account that the soldiers
will be inoculated against typhoid
and smallpox that the food will be
as pure and wholesonte as careful in-
spection and care can make it
that medical inspections will be
frequent it will be seen that the gov-
ernment is not omitting anythin:
which will tend to conserve the health
of soldiers All these precautions
are being taken in military canton-
ments which at most are only tempo-
rary living places certainly as much
effort ought to be expended to ren-
der healthy the communities in which
the civil population will live not only
this year and next but from genera-
tion to generation

RAILROADS MUST
FURNISH TANK CARS
Oklahoma City Aug 6 — One of
the most interesting as well as Im-
portant orders issued in the history of
die corporation commission has just '
been promulgated in the case of tho
Lawton Refining company ve the St -Louls-San
Francisco Railway com-
pany Involving tho question whether
a railroad company may ba compelled
by tho state corporation commission
to furnish sippera with tank curs in t
which to transport gasoline and other
product of petroleum The com-
mission holds that tha carrier must '
provide such equipment just as it
must provide coal equipment for ship-
ping coal or stock cars for the trans-
portation of live stock - '
The cause was of particular inter-
est because the railroad company
relying upon a decision of the United
States supreme court that the inter-
state commerce commission had not
been granted authority by congress
to require railroads to pfovlde tank
cars for the benefit of shippers had
sold all its tank equipment and
claimed to be unable to provide the
equipment demanded by the Lawton
Refining company
The commission -holds that the
fact that the interstate commerce
commission has not been given such
authority by congress does not mean
that the state commission has not
been given ample authority by the
state constitution and laws to deal
with the situation within the state
and orders the railroad company to
restore to service the tank cars which
it formerly had in use in Oklahoma
or a like number of such cars and to
furnish such equipment to the Law-
ton Refining company as heretofore
