Lame Back Prescription.
The increased u*e of whiskey for
lame back rheumatism is causing con­
siderable discussion among the medical
fraternity. It is an almost infallible
cure when mixed with certain other
ingredients and taken properly.
The
following formula is effective: “To
one half pint of good whiskey add one
ounce of Toris Compound and one ounce
Syrup Sarsaparilla Compound.
Take
in tablespoonful doses before each meal
and before retiring.” Toris compound
is a product of the laboratories of the
Globe Pharmaceutical Co., Chicago, but
it as well as the other ingredients can
be had from any good druggist.

There must be no Kiesswork about
feeding the calf. The stomach of the
young calf is easily ruined by slipshod
methods of feeding. Think of this when
tempted to feed it milk that is too hot
or too cold In a bucket that is not as
clean and sweet as it should be.
Milk that sticks to the sides of the
pall and becomes sour is a bad propo­
sition, as it may cause an attack of
the scours. This trouble means a break

Do not oblige the cows to bunk about
the straw pile until the chilly nights
are past. Dry spots for them to sleep
on are usually very scarce at that sea­

Don’t turn the cattle to pasture too
early. A good plan to follow Is to wait
until you conclude the grass is suffi­
ciently large to turn them on, then
wait a week or ten days longer.

Well«.
Unsanitary dairy wells are a menace
to health, and as the country becomes
more closely settled more and more
care is necessary to provide good water.
The director of the Chicago hygienic
laboratory reports that of 153 wells on
near-by dairy farms, examined by the
inspectors, only eleven were found to
be safe for domestic purposes. In all
cases the safe wells were those lined
with cement, with cement covers, with
a protecting flange of cement several
feet out from the well. In some of the
wells used for washing milk utensils,
a high percentage of colon bacteria
were found, and in some cases manure
could be detected microscopically and
by the odor.
Millet for I.ate Crop».
Millet as a late crop to plant in case
of the failure of the corn crop or fail­
ure to get corn planted at all, Is rec­
ommended by the Ohio station. The
earlier sorts can be seeded through
July, and make fair fields. Hay is tha
most common use made of the crop,
and for this It compares favorably with
timothy, both in composition aDd di­
gestibility. It is good feed for cattle,
horses and sheep, but when overripe
should not be fed to horses exclusively,
as it affects the kidneys. Millet is also
grown for pasture seed, and even for
silage. As a soil cleaner, it is also al­
most equal to a summer fallow.

Mode
of
Preserving
Milk.
A German patent specification de­
scribes a process for preserving milk
by removing all dissolved oxygen by
means of the addition of a small quan­
tity of ferrous enrbonate. The process
Is based on the fact that freshly-pre­
cipitated ferrous carbonate in the pres­
ence of oxygen Immediately assimilates
oxygen and evolves an equivalent quan­
tity of carbon dioxide. One part of
ferrous carbonate is sufficient for 50,-
000 parts of milk, and the properties
of the milk are not altered in any way
by the addition, which should be made
before the milk is boiled.
Cribbing Cora.
The corn crib should be nairow and
slatted on the sides and ends, so that
a free circulation of air is possible in
all directions. Some farmers place hol­
low crates in the cribs as they are
filled, so that there will be no heat­
ing or spoiling in the center of the
mass. Heating destroys the corn germ

that followed the
coming of the Blondes were tremen­
dous. The newspapers criticised them
severely, calling their appearance Inde­
cent, and ministers denounced their ¡>er-
formance as the work of the devil. And
now we have the Salome dance!
Notwithstanding the newspapers and
the ministers. Lydia Thompson met
with great receptions. She first ap­
peared In New York In the burlesque
“Iklon,” and because the women of the
company wore blonde wigs they were
dubbed the “British Blondes," a name
that clung to them. One of their per­
formances, “The Forty Thieves," ran
for 100 nights—something nt that time
unprecedented. All told, Miss Thomp­
son made four visits to the United
States, touring as far as the Pacific
coast Iler success may be indicated
by the fact that when she was in
Cincinnati even the bootblacks sub­
scribed their dimes to present her with
a silver wreath. In Chicago she horse­
whipped a newspaper man who had
written an Insulting article concerning
one of her songs.
Miss Thompson first appeared on the
London stage In 1852. Four years later
she toured Europe and she won such
favor that in many cities she was sere­
naded and escorted by torchlight
parades. Her last appearance on the
stage was In 1895, in London. She was
72 when she died recently, having been
born in 183G.
