Black leg in cattle and preventive inoculation notes
Dr Paquin summarizes black leg in young cattle, detailing that it is caused by germs thriving in lowland grasses and rapidly kills with gas-filled black tumors. Early prevention via removal of exposed stock, relocation to dry land, and double-dose inoculation with proper vaccine and syringe is advised. The piece also includes stock-keeping guidance and a brief note on horse breeding and Dakota wheat versus sheep trends.

Hens Favor Secluded Nesting and Crops for Winter Feed
A Kansas poultry grower advises setting nests against walls with a narrow passage, sowing a cereal patch for winter pasture to harvest when ripe, and planting corn near the henhouse on good soil. He suggests frequent plowing, earthwork dust baths, fruit or forest tree rows as forage, mulching for grub, and selecting hardy clean-legged hens with small combs. Ground oats boiled and mixed with cornmeal makes a good ration.
