1 AN experienced Chester county dairy
man saws that he has found coal oil to be a
very excellent remedy for milk fever in
COWS. He first tried il some time ago,
/ W hen one of his COWS was down with the
disease, very much swollen, and no hope
whatever OF the animal recovering: He
gave her third Of pint of the Gil, and in
half an hour the swelling began to 60 down,
the cow showed decidedly improved
appearance and took a drink of water.
Giving the water he thinks was mistake,
as soon after taking it she became worse;
the oil was again administered and the
cow got well. Soon after another animal
was attacked This time lac gave halt a
pint of oil. and repeated the dose every
three-uuarters oi an hour until the swell
ing began to 20 down, and the following
morning the COW was standing up all
right and could be milked-whereas not
drop of milk could be drawn from her the
previous night. After giving the oil. and
the animal gets better. faNseed tea or Cruel
should be fed. We trust our farmers and
dairymen who may have occasion TO use
this remedy will DO 80.

attached to the rear end of the house which

not until the roof was entirely consumed

SENATOR WHITE has read in the Sen
ate bill which exempts homestead to
the value OF $500 from sale or distress. 1t
provides for the selecting of commission
ers to appraise and designate the property
10 be held and descend TO the use of the
family of the household or surviving hus-
band, wife or children, until twenty one
years old. When there is a divorce, the
court shall designate whether the husband
or wife shall retain the household. The
act designates certain personal property to
lie exempt from levy and sale to consist of
beds and other household goods. 1t also
exempis the tools OF iradesmen TO the val
ue Of 500, the library of a professional
man to the value Of 800 and food necessa-
~ TO subsist family for month. The
act takes the place of all other exemption
laws, and secures a homestead to every
family, instead of allowing the debtor, OF
head of a family. to take share In the
proceeds of the sale OF his property, as is
provided Tor by existing laws.
