from this place recently. sustained great
loss by getting his tobacco seriously
damaged. 1t was fifteen days on the

about so per cent. of the true value OF his
tobacco.

the shingles in several places. BY means
of ladder the top of the house was soon
reached and the fire extinguished. A few
minutes delay would have caused the
loss of his house. Too much care with
fire cannot be exercised during the. windy
days.

Summer complaint, infantile fux,
gastric fevers, are now daily carrying
off the little ones to the dark abode of
death. We miss many smiling face
snatched from our embrace by these
monsters of civilization. Yet, ten to
one, the disorded bowels that bring on
summer complaint, the disordered
liver that brings on infantile fux, the
disordered digestion that brings on
gastric fever, have arisen in too many
instances from the presence ofinteslinal
worms. Every mother ought to know
that the presence of worms alone has
caused disorders that were like each
and every one of these, and that child
rem have died from it and from moth
ing else. Edward Wilder's Worm
Syrup is harmless for anything except
the worms which it destroys, and its
frequent use will do a great deal to-
ward preserving the little ones of the
household.

Feed for Cows.

DIR. Sturtevant, of the agricultural
experiment station at Geneva, says Of
experiments made with feed for COWS :
l. The effect of shorts was very IA
vorable to the richness of milk and the
amount of butter obtained therefrom,
2. The effect of meal was neither
favorable to rich milk nor the economy
of manufacture of butter therefrom,
but was favorable to the quantity Of
milk yielded.
3. The effect of ensilage was unfa-
vorable to richness of milk, but rather
favorable to the obtaining of the but
ter from the milk.

eases. Raw apples, and dried apples

diseases. Raw apples, and dried apples
stewed, are better for constipation than
most liver pills.
Oranges are very acceptable to most
stomachs, having all the advantage of
the acid alluded to; but the juice alone
should be taken, rejecting the pulp.
The same may be said Of lemons,
pomegranates, and all that class. Lem
onade is the best drink in fevers and
when thickened with sugar, is better
than syrup or squills and other nause-
Gus drugs in many cases of cough.
Tomatoes act on the liver and bowels
and are much more pleasant and safe
than blue mass and silver regulators"
The juice should be used alone, re-
jecting the skins.
The small.seeded fruits, such as
blackberries, figs, raspberries, straw
berries, may be classed among the best
foods and medicines. The sugar in
them is nutritious, the acid is cooling
and purifying, and the seeds are laxa-
tive. We would be much the gamer
if we would look more to our gardens
and orchards for our medicines, and
less to our drug stores. To cure a fe-
yer or act on the kidneys, no febrifuge
or diuretic is superior to watermelons,
which may, with very few exceptions,
be taken in sickness and in health, in
almost unlimited quantities, not only
without injury, but with positive bene-
fit. But in using them, the water, or
juice should be taken, excluding the
pulp; and the melon should be fresh
and ripe, but not over-ripe and stale.

J. G. RODGERS.
ANswER.-Your cows have probably
simply eaten too much clover, which
has produced hoove. They are very
apt to do this when the clover is very
succulent, especially if turned in pas
ture when the clover is wet with dew
or rain, or if the cattle have partaken
too freely of salt and water. The pre-.
ventive is to put them to pasture after
the dew is off and allow them to Craze
only half the day or less, and give dry
feed at night. The hoove is produced
by the animal so overlooking the large
stomach that it is not able to properly
circulate the food-it does not pas;
readily to the second stomach to be
thence raised for rumination or "chew
ing the cud." The mass ferments OF
sours, with formation of gas which
still further distends the paunch. A
prompt administration of half pound
of common soda In quart Of water il
recommended in the early stage of {
case, and the animal should be required
to move rapidly so as to produce I
change in the position Of the content
of the paunch and the escape of tn,
gas. In advanced stages of the com
plant the probang or hollow, flexible
tube should be introduced by the moutl
and into the stomach, so as to ALLOW
exit to the gas.

The Springfield Record gives an ac-
count of the baking of the largest
chicken pie perhaps that was ever seen.
1t was made by Mrs. Alzada Percise,
at Paris, Tenn, just after the close of
the Jackson and Clay campaign in
1882. That pie contained ninety-six
grown chickens, one hundred pounds
of -four, frkin of butter and lard in
proportion. 1t was placed in a large
hatter's kittle and served at the court
house, on Christmas day. Mrs. Percise
is still living, her home now being at
