Diseased MILK.

Cases of the transmission of disease by
milk continue to be reported in English
journals. The London Medical Times and
Gazette, of recent date, says: I'm conse-
quence of the prevalence of scarlet tever
in the neighborhood of Lee, Mr.. Wigner,
public analyst, has presented report to
the Plumstead District Board of Works,
in which he states that he had obtained
various samples of milk, in which he
found water added the extent of from 6
to 45 per cent. Four samles were in a
state quite unfit for food las they contained
the germs of disease, traceable, no
doubt, to the contaminated water in the
cowkeeper's yards. The wells from
which the water was drawn were often
mere receptacles of diluted sewerage land
he had just examined sample, taken
from one of these wells, which was tour
teen times as foul as the London drainage
that was daily discharged into the river
al CrOSsness."

Medicmi Hints.

TO Make Mustard PEaster.-Take a
tablespoonful of trGacle more or less, as
desired; stir thick with mustard, and hav-
ing spread it on cloth, apply it directly
to the skin; it will not blister, even if
kept ON for an hour.
Remedy for Burns.-One ounce Of pull
verified borax, one quart of boiling water.
half an ounce of pulvcriZed alum. Shake
up we'll and bottle. Wrap the burn up 10
soft linen, and keep constantly wet with
the solution. Do not remove the linen
until the burn is cured.
To Remote Cinders from, the Eye--A
small catneI's hair british dipped in water
and passed over the ball of the eye on
raising the lid. The operation requires
no skill, takes but moment and instant
ly removes any cinder or particle of dust
or dirt without inf1aming the eye
Knock Knees.-.A correspondents advice

menced the practice of placing small
book between my knees, and tying a
handkerchief tight around my ankles.
This did two or three times day, in
creasing the substance at every fresh trial,
until could hold brick with ease
lengthways. When / first commenced
this practice was as badly knock-kneed
as possible, but now am as straight as
anyone. likewise made it a practice
of lying on my back in bed, with my
legs crossed and my knees fixed tightly
together This, I believe, did me great
deal Of good"
Cumphor far Gapes.-As soon as we
discover any symptoms Of gapes among
Our chickens, we know that there are
worms-very small red worms--in their
wind-pipes, and we give them camphor
in their drinking vessels, strong enough
to make quite taste Of the camphor.
Then, if any get the disease quite badly
before we discover it, we force pill of
gum Compton down the throat about the
size of small pea, and the fumes of
that doze will kill the worms. No kind
of worms can live in camphor, hence,
camphor must be powerful vermifuge.
No farmer in the older States can
afford to sell wood ashes for any price
that the soap boiler would pay. Where

Foreign train Markets.

LONDON. July 2.-The Mark Lane Express
says there is decided change for the better in
the appearance of the growing wheat, which is
now in full bloom. At first sight the fields
seem to promise large crop, but in many
fields the ears are small. With the exception
of barley and oats, appearances at present
point to fair average yield of cereals, as far
as quantity is concerned, while the quality is
likely to be mediocre. insignificant supplies
of English wheat at Mark Lane and provincial
markets indicate rapid depletion of stocks in
farmers hands, and that little or not any will
be left over at harvest time. Imports of for
eign wheat into London have been more mod
ate of late but the supplies 60 into the grain
airy rather than consumption. Small lots of
white wheat have been taken off the stands
for continental account principally for
Belgium and north of France where the crops
