A Preventative for Hay Fever.
ITO DO CN,tiaued.l

A few years ago, Professor Helmholtz,
the eminent German physician, publish
ed an account of remedy which he had
found for true hay fever. This was SIM
ply to apply to the lining of the nose a
solution of sulphate of quinine by means
Of a small pipette, or pointed glass tube,
while lying with the chin held in the
air. Since then preventative has been
discovered by DR.. Blakcly, and indie
pendently by Mr.. IIannay Of Cove Cas-
Tie, Lochhong, N, B, This consists in
preventing the hay pollen entering the
nose by pinching it with a spring-clip.
Mr.. Iannay also plugs the ducts of the
eyes by means of dumb-bell-shaped
pieces Of glass, which can be readily re-
moved Curiously enough, hay fever,
which appears to be due to tender lin
ing of the nostrils, is almost unknown
in Scotland, although common in the
South Of England, and the observation
has elected the curious explanation that
the more callous membrane of the Scot
is Inherited from long line OF snull-tak-
ing ancestors.

Chemistry of the Fattening Process.

A lean COW or OK is in very differ
ent condition, chemically considered,
from fat animals of the same kind In
the first place, the poor animal con-
sists of about two-thirds water, the fat
one of only half that is, in total
weight A fat animal is III dry con
dition; poor animal is like some of
our bog meadows, very wet. When
the fattening process begins, water
commences to disappear, and fat or
suet takes its place; and the increase
in bulk during the process is largely
of adipose matter. 1t is curious cir
cumstance that during fattening, the
proteids or nitrogenous compounds, in
crease only about 7 per cent. and the
bone material or inorganic substances
only Il per cent. The cost to far
mer of fattening an OK is much greater
at the close of the process than at the
commencement, that is, increase in
bulk or dry weight at that period is
much more costly. If it costs 3 cents
a pound for bulk, for the first month
after poor animal is put in the fat
tcning stall, it will cost 6 cents the
last month. If then farmer consults
his money interests, he will not carry
out the increase in fat beyond a certain
point, provided be can turn his par
TALLY fatted animals to fair advantage.
Farmers have perhaps learned this
fact from experience and observation,
and hence comparatively lean beef
abound in our markets. While this
is OF advantage to the farmer, it is
very disadvantageous to consumers Of
the beef, for the flesh of a fat animal
in every case is much richer in fixed
nourishing material than that of the
lean and it is never good economy to
purchase lean beef 1t is better &c
purchase the poorest parts Of fat
| animal than the lest of a lean one
The best piece Of a fat OK 0he loin
contains from q TO 2S per cent mor'
{ fixed material than the corresponding
piece in lean one, aud curiousl'
enough, the worst piece in lean AMI
NAL (the nock), is the richest in noui
ishing material The flesh of the necl
:. improves very little in fattening

he, | will lie perfectly still and let the
