Con LIVER OiL.-Under Inc head
ing Of Practical Notes. Mr.. II. b.
Fairthorue suggests, in the American
journal OF Pharmacy, q new method
Of taking cod liver oil. As the uso
of this remedy is ut the present time
moro extensive than ever before, any
means employed whereby it can be
more readily taken without causing
disgust will prove of service 10 suffer-
ers who have to use it daily. Mr..
Fairthorne's method consists in adj
ding two drachms Of tomato or wal
nut catsup to each ounce Of the oil,
the mixture being we'll shaken when
ever required for use. He has found
this mixture to agree with many per-
sons much better than any other form
in which cod liver oil has been taken,
and this he attributes to the associa-
alton of substances generally employ
ed as additions to food, bringing into
operation those digestive faculties Of
the stomach which might otherwise
remain dormant when such incongrus
ous substances as sugar and one of tho
principal ingredients of fish are intro
duced together in the stomach. Mr..
Fairthornc also states that the follow
ing forms a not unpalatable mixture,
which is readily taken by the patient:
Liebig's extract, ! ounce; extract Of
celery seeds, ! fluid drachm; vinegar,
l fluid ounce; water, 2 fluid ounces;
cod liver oil, s fluid ounces. The ex-
tract of beef is to be dissolved in water,
and the oil aud vinegar TO be added
and shaken well together with the ex-
tract OF celery.
1t is said that the best way to drive
crows out ola corniield is 10 save rotten
eggs and put them in small heaps, at
several points in The field. Grows arc
fond OF eggs, but the first taste OF q
rotten one will cause them TO shake
the dust from their feet and leave the
field for better pasturage. Try it.

Founder in Horses.-Founder or
laminitis Of inflammation of the vas.
cular sensitive lamin@ Of the horses
foot. IL is usually caused by over nc
ton, rapid driving, and especially by
allowing the horse to stand i'm the
wind or cold uncovered, after active
exercise, or by drinking freely Of cold
water when warm, and allowed to
stand still afterwards. 1t may also
be caused by arrangements of the di-
gestive system. Usually one or both
of the fore-feet are affected, but the
hind feet may also be involved. The
feet are hot and tender, and the ami
NAL stands as much rs possible upon
lis heels and trembles when moved.
The disease is usually manifested the
next day after exposure.
DIR. Cressey IN n recent lecture be-
fore the Connecticut Board Of A0ri-
culture, said 3bat any case Of founder
can be cured if taken within thirty
hours of the attack. The horses feet
should DC placed in tubs Of warm wa
ter, blanket heavily and get the ami.
mai thoroughly warm. In short the
treatment consists in equalizing tho
circulation by making the animal
sweat, and thus relieving the feverislf
condition. Any one who has n borz6
which becomes foundered should at
once adopt vigorous treatment. In
order to remove the disease the casg
must be taken in hand before tho az.
lection becomes established.
