There is now being built from Chicago a

Democrat says:
Indications are that all the stir made
about the new cancer remedy. cundrango
will prove to have been part of an extepsiye
scheme to give new quack medicine a
good start. 1t is pronounced by several of
the most prominent physic of this CITY.

York has obtained patent on a cancer
cure, having this newly discovered ingre-

Effect Of the Food OF Cows ON the Com.
position of the Milk.

A series of experiments prosecuted
not long since in Germany led to the
conclusion that, contrary to the usual
impression on the subject, very consid-
cradle changes in tho composition of
food may be made without inducing
corresponding changes in the relative
constituents Of the milk of the COW
the only effect being in the amount Of
concentration of the milk.
To determine these results with nc
auracy, DR.. Kuhn has repeated the cx-
perimcnts, with the general result of
showing that an increase in the albu-
men and fatty elements of a mroderate
diet, produces an increase in the milky
yield, which gradually rising (along
with bodily condition) to certain
maximum. corresponding in each case
with the maximum increase of the above
elements. Sooner or later, however,
the natural diminutiQn depending on
the duration Of lactation occurs, sntl
no increase can be produced by
increasing the food. Dimin-
ution Of the above ele
nents of the food causes diminution
in the milk yield. The addition of fat
increases the ingredients of milk gen
orally, and has no special influence o,
the amount Of fat in the milk. The
absolute production of the individual
elements of the milk agrees generally
with the relative production of the
milk as u whole (most regularly in tht
case of sugar.. The variations frou

diet. Tho variations in the amonnt O
