Diseases of Poultry.

Fowls are particularly liable to colds,
as the air-cells occupy so large part of
their physical framework. Where there
is slight cold, put the fowl in warm,
sunny place, give warm food, and moth
ing more will be needed. The same
method should be pursued in hard colds.
II there is much fever, put four drops of
tincture of aconite into the water, or
sweeten it, and make it little sour with
sulphuric or nitric acid. Add to the
food pinch of ginger or cayenne pep
per. III there is much swelling about
the head, mild purge will be useful.
The homeopaths give mercur virus for
slight colds, euphrasia for more serious
ones; each thrice daily, adding aconite
for the fever.
A roup may only begin with catarrh,
and, like roup, catarrh and bronchitis,
sometimes cause death. But how are
we to know such cases from roup? Sim
ply by the offensive discharge at the
beak which characterizes the latter dis
ease. When the fowl has a discharge at
the beak that is not offensive, you may
call it q simple catarrh or common cold.
When the odor is bad it is roup. No
better distinction is possible in the pres
ent state of knowledge of fowl ailments.
The difficulty in telling these maladies
apart will suggest to the careful poul-
terer prompt isolation of cases where he
is not certain.
Cough may come from parasites in the
air passages. This applies more par
ticularly to the sneezing effort caused by
the cape worm in the throat of young
chickens. A spasmodic cough, lasting
a whole day even, is reported as having
accompanied the epizootic. 1t yielded
under treatment with potash.
Consumption, or tubucular deposits,
may be suspected where a cough does
not yield to treatment, and admits of no
other explanation. Cod-liver oil in
barley meal would be the treatment if
any one really wanted to save consump-
tive fowls. They ought to be killed.
Asthma is nothing more than roup, as
far as we know, and very likely this
name may have been given to cases of
that sort.-AnseTicdn Poultry Yard.

Mr.. G. II. Darwin has taken pains
to estimate the stresses caused in the in
terror of the earth by the weight Of con-
tinents and mountains, and he concludes
that either the materials of the earth
have about the strength of granite at
1000 miles from the surface, or that
they have much greater strength nearer
to the surface. He confirms Sir William
Thomson's theory that the earth must
be solid nearly throughout its whole
mass, and he attributes the lava of vol
canoes to the melting of solid rock which
exists in high temperatures at points
where the pressure is diminished, or to
the existence of comparatively small va
rieties of molten rock.

Formation of Fat in Milk and Cheese.

Commissioner Hirschberg, in a com.
munication to the Mich Zeitii1l1, makes
the following interesting remarks con-
corning the formation of fat in milk and
cheese. He says: " Subsequently to
Herr Volts demonstration that fat
arises from the decomposition of albu-
men in living organisms, Herr Kemer-
ich satisfied himself that the same proc
ess goes on in albumen after it has been
removed from the body. He found that
the fatty matter contained in milk in
creases in quantity for few days after
it is drawn, while the amount of albu-
men becomes less. But the formation
of fat, in milk freely exposed to the air,
is conditional in the development Of
fungi. Ii their germs are deranged by
the milk being raised to temperature
of 180 degrees Fahr. or If means are
purposely taken to prevent the admis-
sion OF fungus germs to it. while the
access of air is still permitted, the fatty
contents of the milk diminish, the ex-
isting fat is oxidized by the air, and no
new compensatory supply is formed.
Exactly analogous processes attend the
formation of fat in cheese. Here also
the existing proportion of butter is di-
minished by the atmospheric air on the
supply ID formed by the influence of
the fungi, which are becoming devel-
oped. According to the preponderance
OF the one or the other processes, the
fat contents of old cheese will rise or
fall in amount.
" Practically" says Herr Kemerich,
In concluding his paper on the subject
in " Pfuger's Archives of Physiology"
"the method by which we can regulate
the formation Of fat in ripening cheeses
in any desired degree has long been
known to US. II we wish to produce
equally rich, hard cheeses above every
thing, very cool and not too dry cellars
are required. and care must be taken to
pack small cheeses very close together,
so as to prevent, in some measure, the
access of air. The philosophy of curing
cheese is very imperfectly understood
at least in America Many dairymen,
as well as cheese dealers, do not believe
that fat in cheese can be produced in
any other way than by the cream which
is in the milk; and yet 1t has been
proved, over and over again, that cheese
properly cured, though made from milk
partly skinned, is often more mellow
and rich tasting than cheese made from
whole milk, but not so well cured.

Domestic accidents are common to women,
and some of them are very serious. Mrs.
Warner, Of South RondUut, Ulster Co., N. I.
Some weeks ago attempted to take from her
child a pair of shears with which 1t was play
ing. A slight struggle ensued, in which the
point of the shears entered Mrs. Warmers
left eye, entirely destroying the sight. Her
family physician did what he could, but in
tensely painful inflammation arose, which, by
sympathy, threatened the loss of the other
eye. Total blindness 10 a woman having the
care of household is an irretrievable calam-
ity. In this strait Mrs. w appliedto the we'll
known and skillful Surgeon, DIR. David Ken
nedy, of Rondout n. Y, who removed the
injured eye by q very successful operation,
setting aside all danger of futher harm to the
sight of the other eye. But, owing to pain
and mental distress, her system needed tonic
and restorative medicine. To do this work
the Doctor prescribed "Kennedy's Favorite
Remedy" which sustained its reputation and
laid a sure foundation of health.
DIR. Kennedy's "Favorite Remedy" removes
all impurities from the blood, regulates the
Liver and Kidneys. Cures Constipation, and

Costumes in Nevada.


Mr.. David McCranor, the Montana mi
ner, sends in the following selection from
the Carson Gazette, as clever description
of their Western higb.toned parties:
Her dress was of highly wrought fab
ric OF old pinchbeck gold, frosted over with
Paris green can.spangles and brocaded will,
mahogany sawdust. There was an exquis.
ite over.skirt, shirred with hempen yarn of
unique pattern, and elegantly caught up
with costly zinc.plate suspendcr buckle.
A wreath of natural shoemaker's wax
hung in ravishing waves from the waist,
while loops OF molasses candy heightened
the caudnl appendages of the basque lie
coat. The train was massive and decOllcie.
1t was georgeonsly resplendent with n row
of richly embroidered shells de oyster,
sprlnkled with assorted grains of coal de
ash. Snrmonnting all was rich Oriental
mantale of bag de cordage, which was pin
ioned at the right shoulder of the fair
wearer with a shingle de nail, on which
was leviathan carved dome, wrought ell.
tirely of rare pieces of gum de spruce.
The fair wearer of all this magnificent
apparel wore tin star buried in n perfect
torrent of red.hot black coal hair, while
she glided through the mazes of the dance
like a gazelle with its right arm in a sling.
When she brought her pretty little Gin
derella slipper down upon the marble isles
of The festive hall, lie rafters in the build
ing shook witt, silver laughter, while crock
cry in the cellar, like enchanted fairies
lcaped up and kissed the floor underneath.
When excited and full of enthusiasm, this
lovely Venus opened her mouth, revealing
two massive rows of pearl that reminded
the enchanted beholder of trains of white
washed cars gliding on wings Of love
through Hoosac's magnificent tunnel. Her
musical laugh sent thrill Of delight across
the mass of surging, worshiping humanity,
like the trick ling Of cold milk punch down
the back of man who has just filled his
boots with chocolate ice cream.

points that one cannot TAI to noto the re-

John Wilkes Booth was an ontgrowth

resent others beyond the little party OF IA
natics of which he WAS Il member.

Both were naturally reck less, talented
erralic and wildly impulsive; both were
conspiratora, and both, in the very acme Of
their crime, gave ntterance to exclamalions
which escaped them in the tempest ol

and distorted their minds, betraying their
treason and its accomplices. Surely here
is singular historic parallel.
