only remedy for them.
In connection with the weather hen
is a pointer worth putting down fo
future reference: While out in thi
woods on Monday, January 30, 1911
your correspondent found some silve
maple trees in full bloom and bee:
working on the flowers. Whatchei
know about that?
To tell the truth about these curi
ous meterological conditions it begin!
too look mighty scaly for a peach crof
in the good year of 1911. Many tree:
down this way, especially of the El
berta varieties, are beginning to show
the bloom pink and if it does not turr
cooler soon, they will be in full bloom
This calls to mind a statement madt
by the writer in these items recentl>
that when peach buds show the pinl
it takes 23 degrees above zero to kil!
them, when it takes 22 in pink and 2f
in full bloom.

To The Star.
I learn that horses are dying in ane
around Hatfield and Potter. I have
a remedy that 1 have never known ti
fail. I here offer it to the public free
if the editor will do the same. Maki
a couple of sacks something like th<
old sausage sacks, dig down and ge
clay, fill the sacks, have a pot of ho
water, put the sacks into the watei
and after they get to boiling take one
sack and place it between the horse’!
ears, let one end extend down on th<
forehead near the eyes and the othei
end back on the poll of the head; rais<
it up a little occasionally to keep it from
burning too much; after it gets coolpu
it back in the water and use the othei
sack as the first was used. This wil
cause the water in the head to breal
loose. I have used this two or thre(
times and it has proved successful!.
