An injured horse will then regain his feet readily if he has suitable footing. In case the I ground is icy, scatter some fine sand, sawdust, or straw under and in front ot him. If nothing of this kind is j available, spread a blanket or bur-, lap bagging on the pavement to give him better footing as he attempts to stand. i,^l>en the Horse Lice Broadside.

In all effort to assist a fallen horse do not forget that in rising to his feet he raises the head and fore parts first. This is directly opposite to the habit of the cow, which elevates the hind parts first. Asphalt Especially Treacherous. Injuries to -horses are common during the winter months in cities where snow becomes packed an 1 forms an icy coating on the pavement. In most cities above the frost belt there arc times when pavements arc slippery. Asphalt is especially troublesome and when covered by a very light sleet or snow makes a very treacherous footing for horses. The milkman or baker, who drove upon a clean pavement the night before, may find the streets at 4 a in ?o nearly impassable from a coat of smooth ice as to delay bis deliveries very greatly or even prevent them entirely. Special Shoes and Careful Driving. In country districts horses remain sharp or rough shod for a considerable time. Hut if they are driven much on city streets paved with stone, cement, or asphalt, from which the snow has been removed their shoes quickly become smooth and it is difficult for the horses to keep their feet. When the front feet slip backward a horse is likely to fall and injur'' i his knees, while side slipping gcnev_ ally causes him to covnc down broadside. Shoeing with rubber pads, ->r the use of emergoncry appliances may lessen the chance of slipping, hut as there is always the possibility of a horse falling, even when well sho i, careful driving and precautions against over-loading arc important additional means for reducing the e accidents and injuries to a minimum, j o?

Washington.?Because of unsettled conditions in Europe it is impossible I to foresee what tjie economic condi- I tions with regard to cotton will be. The United States department of ag- < riculture is urging Southern fanners < to "play safe" and just at this t'rne < more than ever before safety ap- i pears to lie in a balanced type of 1 farming that will enable the farmers of the South to raise their own home supplies of both food and feed, which < they can do without interference l with either the acreage or the labor 1 necessary to produce a sufficient 1 supply of cotton. This view was recently expressed b., Secretary Houston in reply to a telegram from Charles B. Metcalfe of San Angelo, Texas, although th" < conclusion had bocn arrived at and expressed some time before. The agricultural colleges, in cooperation 1 v-ith the department of agriculture, I through ioint extonsion forcos hnvo ' teen organizing for several weeks past for the purpose of bringing. before farmers in the several States definite suggestions for operations ie 1919. These joint forces are furnishing farmers the latest information that the department and the colic ges have been ublo to gather concerning prospects for next year. Generally speaking, extension forces are agreed that the wise policy for Southern farmers to pursue in 1919 is to make sure of the production ot their own home supplies of both food and feed. Attention is being called to the fact that an average yield of cotton on an acreage the size of that in 1918 will produce from 2.000,000 to 8,000,000 bales more than was produced in 1918. The secretary's telegram to Mr* Metcalfe says, in part: "On account of unsettled conditions in Europe it is impossible to make any definite forecast of the economic situation, hut certainly it is a safe policy t< pursue fov the farmers of the South to raise their own home supplies of both food and feed.

O RUMANIANS DO NOT FEARBOLSHEVISTS Paris.?Queen Marie, of Roumania, declared that, in spite of the plight of her country and the sufferings of the people in the war, there is no clanger of Bolshevism there if supplies of food can be secured. Speaking of conditions in Rumania during the war, the Queen said: Suffered More Than Belgium. "We suffered even worse than Bel gium. She had England and France Sy her side, and behind them stood America, while we had only Russia to depend upon. When the Russians :ame to assist us all they did was to ?at our food. They were never of real aid; German plotters saw to that. "I have no fear of Bolshevism in Rumania if food is supplied immediately. It is very difficult to secure food in my country because of the wholesale destruction of railroads. thefts of railroad cars and horses. Imperative need is locomotives. Iiolsheviki Are Cowards. "Ityngcr produces revolutions and Bolshevism. The Bolshcviki are cowards. They will not stand before an organized force. We do not fear them and they have failed in their efforts to ruin Rumania. 1 have gone about in perfect safety in my war work." Queen Marie expressed deep ap pveciation of the work done by th American Red Cross. The Queen called attention to the. I'rc-nch cross with a palm which she wears. Prizes Cross Hi hly.

Washington.?Instinct ion for retail merchants on the filing of ta>; due, issued today by the internal revenue bureau, emphasizes the importance of accuarte book accounts, particularly for small business, as the first requisite in making reports. Periodical inventories als i were advocated strongly. The bureau suggested this formula for determining the net income of a retail merchant. "Add the cost of merchandise bought for sale during the year, to 1 the inventories taken at the begin- j ning of the year. From this sum do- i duct the inventories taken at the end | of the year. The bo lance is the cost of the goods sold. This cost, plus j business, or "overhead" expenses, j when deducted from the gross root ipts, gives the correct net income of the business. "The inventory," the Revenue Bureau statement added, "is fully as important as the cash account in determining the gain or loss in a retail business. In making their inventories at the | end of each taxable year, retailers ?may list the values by either of two methods; (1) the cost of the goods, 01 (2) the cost or market price, whichever is lower. The freight, <x! press, cartage and storage costs may j be added to the cost of each lot of goods. "Besides the net cost of goods sold, the retailer is allowed to deduct his , gross sales for the year the necessary expenses incidental to the business. No personal, family or living expenses of any kind may be included in such deductions. The ordinary retailer might have as expense clerk hire, rent of business property, interest on his business indebtedness, and taxes on his business property. Also there may be ordinary repairs, bad debts charged ofT the books during the year; other expenses, such as isnsurance, light, heat, telephone, feed for delivery horses, repairs and upkeep of delivery wagons, supplies and upkeep for motor trucks, etc. "Under the item 'wear and tear,' a retailer may claim reasonable depreciation on property used in the {business. On fixtures the allowance is usually r> percent or 10 percent of the cost price; on horses and wagons, 10 per cent; on mjotor trucks, 20 per 'cent. "The individual retailor may take a salary for his services, but if he does so, he must consider such salary as part of his income. COPY SIMMONS FOR RELIEF.

DIFFERENT ASPECT WILL BE APPARENT Few Willing to Assume Respon sibility While Treaty is Changed. NYw York.?A league of nations covenant is indispensable to the treaty of peace if "the war is to accomplish the declared purpose of this nation and the world," Former President Taft told the audience at the Metropolitan Opera House in an exL. -- uausuvo discussion of the league principles, preceding the address of President Wilson. Adherence of the Washingtonian policy of avoiding foreign alliance could not or applie<l to the present international status, Mr. Taft declared, "because the interests of the I nited States are inevitably involved ir the preservation of Kuropean peace." For the United States to withdraw from the project, he a^st/ted. would make the league of nations merely " a. return to the system of alliances and the 'balance of power' with a speedy recurrence of war, in which this country would c< rtainly he involved,, as it "was in the present struggle." I Referring to criticism of the league plan in the senate, the former picsidcnt state<l his belief that it i was the duty of the president, as ! the prime mover in the nations's | treaty making power, to report \ the eventual draft of the treaty [with the form or central powers with ! the league covenant as part of tho jticaty itself, if in his judgment and j that of the p ace cosference an j agreement formally tenninating the war would l>e incomplete without it. i If the president made such a vcoom >.vn<uiuu!i, fain ;>u'. tan nc ventured to doubt if there would be a majority of the members willing to assume th< responsibility of decreeing that the treaty be amended by striding out the constitution of the league and committing- the Question to further discussion at Paris.
