ARCHIE CAMPBELL, the head of the old
town guard of Edinburgh, was a some
what remarkable man in his way. His
old mother died, and Archie, being
well to do In money matters, resolved
to take her back to her native place in
the Highlands, and did so. Thinking
1t a great pity to be taking the hearse
back to Edinburgh empty, he thought
of the plan of sending a few gallons of
real small-stiff Struggled whiskey,
which he could easily sell to the men,
bers of the town council with a good
profit. After his feelings of regret had
got somewhat blunted by years, he used
to think 1t a good joke to say DER his
toddy with some of his cronies; 81
took AVA the body and brought back
the speerit,"

ing into the sanctum like a Russian tor
pedO. "They have" we replied gently
and firmly, 'lots of it; you'll find the

sweet smile, and the celestial calm of
an angel benediction filled to overflow
ing the dephs of our soul with tender
peace, like a pound of corn-starch over
whelming the narrow restraints of a
quart cup.

The VETERINARY PRoFEssIoN.-In a
recent number of the Veterinary ReUieao
Professor McEachran says: "We have
now reached an era in the history of
veterinary science in America which
demands that each member of the profess
sion shall do his duty to himself, his
country, and his profession. by insist
ing henceforth that this noble science,
valuable as noble-for by its proper
utilization, millions of dollars, which
under present circumstances are lost
annually, might be saved-must and
will be wrenched out of the hands Of
impostors and be practiced only by
those qualified by education of a stan
dard arranged and acknowledged by
some recognized authority" In no
country is this science better appreci-
ated than in France. The French
Government pays 1900 annually for
the support of veterinary schools and
colleges and exclusive ofthose employed
in the army there are 3,0l9 registered
veterinary surgeons, regularly educated
for the calling. Every town of any i'm
portance, every port of entry, and
every large horse or cattle market has
its regularly paid surgeon or inspector,
who has exclusive control over the
treatment of the stock under his charge.
Sooner or later the increase of disease
will force this matter on our attention
whether we will or not.

The Largest Standardization o. G.
Marsh has recently received a collection
of reptilian remains from the crustace-
Gus deposits of Colorado, among which
he has found portions of an enormous
dinosaur which he states Is larger than
any land animal hitherto discovered.
The dinosaurs were a tribe of immense
saurians, having many mammalian
characters, such as a medullary cavity
in the long bones, short pachyderm-
like feet, a sacrum of five united verte-
bre, and a lateral motion of the lower
jaw. They include the iguanodon,
me~galosaurus, etc., herbivorous and
carnivorous. The alligator belongs to
the same order. The reptile discovered
by Professor Marsh probably measured
from so to go feet in length. 1t was
herbivorous and seems quite distinct
from any species hitherto described.
The name 7itanoSGaruS montdnas has
been applied to 1t.

KEEP GOOD Cows.-"'There is no use
in trying to disguise the fact that there
is no profit in the dairy without good
cows. Look atthe difference. One COW
will make one hundred and fifty pounds
of butter during the year, worth
twenty-five cents, 1915 0 Another n
will make three hundred pounds, worth
$75. The first yields no profit whatever,
and all that you make comes from the
good COW. 1t would be much better to
keep one COW, and keep her well. 1t is
the same loose method which makes all
our farming operations 30 fruitless. AS
a general rule, two acres are titled to
get a crop that ought to grow on one."
So says our neighbor Of the Practical
FARMER, and his logic Is so evident as to
scarcely need any addition from us.
'Overstocking is a mistake very often
made, though since our dairymen haye
fallen into the habit Of feeding large
quantities of bran to their cows, even
while out In pasture, the bad effects
are not so apparent. 1t is by far too
common a practice to estimate a dairy
by the number of COWS kept, rather
than by the number of gallons of milk
or pounds of butter sold. In many
cases which have come under our notice
the dairyman would obtain more profit
by selling one-fourth of his cows and
feeding the same amount Of feed to the
remainder. When every animal has
all it needs, or can eat, then and only
then will it pay to increase the number;
well kept animals will yield a greater
profit, either in milk, butter, or flesh,
than double that number of half fed
ones. Two COWS making ten pounds of
butter apiece, are more profitable than
three making wen pounds per COW;
the extra one pound per week is more
than equaled by the increase in risk,
labor, etc.

ENGLISH MODE OF SKIMMING.-An
article in Land and Water, describing
the mode says:
"The milk pans were oblongi in shape,
made of zinc, 3 feet long and ~ feet
broad, and about 8 inches deep Ct did
not measure them at the time) and the
bottom of the milk holder was about l
inch smaller all around than the top,
and each zinc basin was fitted into a
wooden frame on four legs, which car
ried it about % feet from the floor Of
the dairy. In the bottom of each zinc
basin, near one corner, there was q
hole made, and in that hole was SOL
dered a piece of zinc pipe about two
inches long, projecting under the basin
and Of such a diameter that a common
bottle cork would fit into it. The
method of using the above apparatus
was as follows: When wishing to get
the cream the dairymaid placed a Jar
under the pipe, and Withdrawing the
cork allowed the milk to flow In a rapid
stream, and just before the last of the
milk was ready to escape, she replaced
the cork, and the result was that In
about one minute or less, an unbroken
mass of cream was left In the basin-at
least it was only broken around the
edge, l think the above process we'll
worthy of being adopted In all large
diaries, as 1t seems to mi to be a very
great saving of time and 1t produces
more cream.

Theory of Luminous FdmeS.-Experi-
ments on the above subject are given K.
Heumann, In which he finds that car
bonaceous matter will give luminous or
on.luminous flames, according as the
temperature of the flame is high or low;
diluting the gaseous combustible with
Indifferent gases also requires a higher
temperature to cause a separation of the
carbon, and thus produce luminosity.
Reduction of temperature in a flame
prevents either partially or entirely the
formation of carbon, consequently the
author thinks that the deposition of car
bon on cold surfaces in a flame is not
the consequence of cooling, as a deposit
ton may be formed on red hot surfaces,
but burns away in contact with air. In
burners of different materials, those of
iron were found to prevent the lumin-
osity of the lower part of the flame to a
greater extent than those of steatite,
also when the burner is heated, a
greater amount of light is produced, the
consumption of the combustible remain
ing the same. Herr Heumann thinks
that by heating the burner the lumin-
osity is increased, and extends to a
greater extent of the lower part of the
flame.-Ndture.

CLEAN EGos.-Some people think 1t
makes but little difference about eggs,
whether clean or dirty, as they are
"clean inside" But this is only true In
part. Dirt or filth causes shells to de-
cay, and sometimes 1t may affect the
taste when the egg is broken. Besides,
clean eggs look 80 much better in mar
ket, and are actually worth more be-
cause they will keep longer. Let the
hens have a good, tidy place in which
live, a clean nest, and let the eggs be
collected every night and kept dry and
cool.-Mdine Farmer.

A FEW ITEMS FOR MOTHERS TO READ.
"A correspondent, In writing 10 the
Middleton Press, offers the following
seasonable suggestions 10 mothers of
afflicted children:
We hope that mothers will remember
that good brandy is a cure for summer
complaints; In bad cases a teaspOOnful
In milk three or four times a day.
A flannel cloth, wet In hot brandy,
or better, camphor and brandy mixed
and heated, will relieve the pain Of the
bowels, If frequently laid over the stom-
ach and bowels.
Bits of scraped ice are better on the
tongue than drinks of water.
For stings and polsons, a strong solu-
ton Of saleratus and water Immediately
and then frequently applied, gives re-
lief aud sure cure.
For burns, an immediate application
of flour covering the burn and wrapped
so as to exclude the air; then burn lard
till 1t Is quite brown and relief and cure
will Dol come. Do not wash OFF the
-four If 1t clings, but put the lard over
1t.
At night, In extreme warm weather,
a lemon squeezed In tepid water, to
sponge off the tired. out little body, will
give rest to both the mother aud child.
Saleratus is good, hut the lemon is best.
Even washing off the little feet, neck
and palms of the hands In tepid, never
very cold, water, will induce a health
full sleeD.

COUGH REMEDY.-A tablespoonful Of
wood licorioe, a tablespoonful Of
slippery elm, and a tablespoonful Of
raislns. Cut into very small particles
each ingredient. Add a pint of water,
let them slowly simmer, or keep near
the boiling point, until the strength of
each is extracted. When ready for use,
there should be half a pint in quantity,
as water may have to be added while
sleeping. Be very particular In select
ing the material, that they be of the
very best, especially the licorice, which
should be so moist that the outside looks
dark, and the wood bright and yellow.
The r~aisIns, also, should be moist, and
cut into small pieces, but the seeds
must not be taken out. This has been
known to entirely cure a cough, after
months continuance, as the slippery
elm removed the inflammation, the
raislns strengthen, and the licorice
heals as fast as the Inflammation is al
layed. A thorough trial will convince
the most skeptical. Dose-A teaspoon
full every time n coughs or a tickling
sensation is experienced.

SCIENTIFIC

A Good Word for the CrOi0.-Let me
speak for the crow. Last year as | was
narrowing corn with a vibrating har-
row having teeth Cyou know IL is a noisy
thing, IL uncovered a great number Of
white grubs, which you could see all
about the ground. They are very de-
structiye TO vegetation Of all kinds.
They ate or destroyed thousands Of
hills Of corn that year. You could see
the track Of the grub as they travelled to
get something to eat, for they travel
when In search OF food. You could see
the surface of the ground a little eleva-
ted, and checked when the surface Is
hard and dry. Well, you see, when |
was narrowing, as soon as the crows
heard the harrow at work, they would
come and light on the ground that was
being narrowed, and the fresher the
better they liked it; when going one
way they would light after had passed
along; when / returned, and came with
in six or eight rods of them, they would
rise gently and circle around in the
rear again. | have counted as many as
seventeen grubs that one crow has
picked up at one lighting. They take
any and everything large and small
that is, worms, grubs, and beetles.
Crows can't pull corn when planted
with a machine; we have no fear Of them
from that scOurce. Finally, wherever
civilization is, there are rocks and crows.

Balloons in Wdr.-M. Menier, as in
ventor of a military hot air balloon, re-
Gently delivered In London a lecture on
war time aeroDautics. In conducting
| experiments at WOolwich, his aim has
been TO find a balloon which could
ascend and descend rapidly for a pro-
longed period, could be steered, and
| could proceed against the wind. Re-
jecting hydrogen gas as an Initiating
medium, because it could not be gener-
ated In the air, and escaped very freely,
compressed air for the same reason, and
mechanical force as cumbrous and UNI
workable, he chose hot, air because, al
though it requires greater cubical ca
pacity, the material employed for the
balloon need not be specially prepared,
and is therefore lighter and less liable
to spontaneous combustion. By employ
ing a special kind of fuel, the balloon
can be kept up in the air for twenty or
twenty-five hours, while considerable
changes in the density of the air, and
consequent rapid asceDts and descents,
are rendered easy. To his balloon,
which is spherical in shape, M. Menier
afflxes wings allround, exceptin front,
and a tail behind, managed by the aero
naut, acts as rudder.

THE LUKE JOHNSON RIOT.
A Joke that Resulted in Serious
Trouble.

National Associated Press to the Star.
NEW YORK, April "a Herald special
from Atlanta, Georgia, says that party
Of men from Crawford, Oglethorpe Coun-
ty, have been securing Atlanta for the
past two days in search OF Luke John
son, the negro fanatic, who melted the
bloody riot in the village last week.
They succeeded in capturing him last
night, together with three of his confed-
crates. He says that his attempt to get
possession of the post-office was occa-
stoned by the fact that Alr. Pace, the
Postmaster, in reading the names Of ap-
pointees to post-oftices in the South, read
The name OF Luke johnson for Crawford.
Upon inquiry he was informed t1at his
name had been read, but simply as a
joke. He declined to believe this, how
ever, thinking tie white men were try
ing to cheat him out of his rights, and
made formal demand for the ottice.
This being refused, he then persuaded
his secret society to assist him in taking
it by force. He denied that they had de-
termined upon the assault, but were
merely discu 'sing it when the Marshaps
posse interrupted them. He says that
MS men fired on the posse after the
house had been fired on.
He reports that one negro was wound
ed, fact not heretofore known. Later
developments show that the spirit of
the negro club was even worse than was
suspected at first. 1t had been nursed
up 10 frantic fury, and there is little
room to doubt but that terrible consc-
quences would have grown out of it had
not The matter been cnoked by the unex-
pected attack OF the club on the Mat
SNAPS posse. The ring leaders are all
safely jailed, and will be tried regularly
and the facts ELECTED. ILqpiry OF the
Post Jffice Off cials shows LuatJohnson
had not received the appoinI ment Of
