Sulphur for Stock.

An English correspondent puts about
two ounces of sulphurous acid into a
quart bottle of water, and gives a table
spoonful of this dilution three times per
day to cattle suffering with foot and
mouth disease. In addition to this, he
burns little sulphur three times day
in the stable in which the animal is
kept. He moistens the feet also with
the above solution with a sponge. One
must be careful not to use sulphuric for
sulphurOus acid, as the former would be
hurtful in this case, instead of curative.
Burning sulphur in the stables of healthy
cattle once or twice week, he thinks,
would ward off disease.
l have long been in the habit of giving
heaping tablespoonful of sulphur for
this purpose to my horses and cows once
a week, in mess of meal; also to large
swine; to full grown sheep about half
this quantity; to lambs and pigs less,
grading it according to size and age. For
poultry once a week mix sulphur with
their pudding, at the rate of heaping
tablespoonful of the former to gallon
of the latter. This keeps them free from
lice unless they are much exposed to
these parasites on their roosts or other
wise Sulphur in moderate doses, and
not given too often, is healthful and a
guard against various diseases snd YER
min.
A simple method of burning it is on a
slip of cardboard or extra stout paper,
a foot long and two or three inches
wide. Scatter sulphur on one end of
this, light the paper and then move it
about the cattle in the stable. BE very
careful to set nothing on fire when doing
in this. In order to guard from fire, if
litter is in the stable, it should be re-
moved previous to lighting the sui
phured paper. A safer way, however,
would be to put some paper in hollow
dish or pan with handle to it to take
hold of and move about.-N. Y. Tri-

HOME AND F ARM.
LITTLE BROWN HANDS"

They drive home the cows from the pasture,
J-p through the long shady lane,
Where the quail whistles loud in the wheat
field
All yellow with ripening grain.
They find, in the thick waving grasses,
Where the scarlet-lipped strawberry
grows,
They gather the earliest snow-drops,
And the first crimson buds of the rose.
They toss the hay in the meadow,
They gather the elder blooms white,
They find where the dusky grapes purple
In the soft-tinted October light.
They know where the apples hang ripest,
And are sweeter than Italy's wines;
They know where the fruit is the thickest
On the long, thorny blackberry vines.
They gather the delicate sea-weeds,
And build tiny castles of sand;
They pick up the beautiful sea shells
Fairy barks that have drifted to land.
They wave from the tall, rocking tree-top,
Where the orioles hammock nest swings,
And at nighttime are folded in slumber
By song that fond mother sings
Those who toll bravely are strongest,
The humble and poor become great;
And from those brown-handed children
Shall grow mighty rulers OF state.
The pen Of the author and statesmen,
The noble and wise of our land
The sword and chisel and palette,
Shall be held in the little brown hand.

A Mexican Tragedy orLone Ago.

High up in canyon, about GO miles
from Monterey, the traveller on the
ferro carril sees the ruins Of an ancient
''casa," whose crumbling walls are
usually mistaken for one of the numer-
wake. But this ghostly place has a
sadder history. 1t was the scene Of n
midnight tragedy, the actors of which
If stories be true-still prowl about
the premises, though their bodies have
been dust for a hundred years. The
history, in brief, is this: A high-spirit-
ed Spaniard lived there, who inherited
all tho jealousy, suspicion, and bad
blood of his race. His beautiful wife
discarded another suitor to marry him,
and the Tilted lover determined on
revenge. He acted the part of lago
and caused 0thello's ear TO be filed
with cunning tales of his own inven-
ton. Jealousy once reused in southern
blood knows no bounds but death. The
infuriated husband carefully devised
his plans, feigned business in Mon
terey, but caused feet horses to be
stationed every few miles along the
road. During the silent watches OF
the night he returned, murdered his
wife in her bed, and by dint of hard
riding accomplished the 100 miles be-
fore daylight Being found In
Monterey in the morning. nobody sus-
pected him of the crime till, long after
ward, discovering the plot and his
wife's innocence, he plunged his dag
ger into the enemy's heart and then
into his own. The orphaned children
were taken to Saltillo and cared for by
the church, and the descendants Of the
actors in this ''o'er-true tale" to-day
represents one Of the most prominent
families in Coahuila- The deserted casa
still stands as a monument to the poor
Desdemona, and the venturesOme who
have visited it assert that a woman in

the moldy halls in the moonlight

Buttermilk VS. Whisky.

A reporter OF the Philadelphia Times.
IN reply to inquiries about the prevail.
ing summer drinks, learned the follow
ing facts from saloon-keeper:
Several years ago there sprung up a
rage for weiss beer, a wishy-washy sort
of drink. About fifty Germans went
into the business. You could get a
schooner of tia tall glass, big enough
to bathe in-for five cents. That had
Its day; and then came ginger ale and
Apoilinaris, and after that brown stont
and "half-and-half." Now there is
strong demand for buttermilk. Yes, it
is queer drink for bar-room; but it
has several recommendations A man
might drink barrel of ii, if he could,
without getting tipsy. He wouldn't
raise the neighborhOod shouting and
singing. He wouldn't want to fight all
the fellows in the night car, or beat his
wife when he got home
But only a small proportion of the
production of the dairies is absorbed bv
the bar-room trade. On Ridge avenue,
above Broad street, is the principal dis
tribnting depot, where the product Of
the gentle jersey and Alderney herds Of
a number of renowned dairyman are
disposed of
''The demand runs the whole year
round for tuttermilk," said an atten-
dant at the dairy. SIN the winter time
it is only about oDe-half what it is now.
If it were very hot now, as it was few
weeks ago, we would sell ! 200 quarts
day In this sort of weather we are
vending 700 to 300 quarts. 1t depends
altogether on the temperature toincrease
the demand and sale. We have many
customers to whom it is served by the
advice Of their physicians, who recon
mend it in cases of dyspepsia and kidney
diseases. We have several doctors who
buy and drinkit by the glass themselves.
One physician has sent over twenty Gus
TONERS here, and all haye declared them
selves benefited by the beverage.
81 don't think the Irish are the princi
pal purchasers. We sell great deal by
the quart, probably about half we dis
pose of. The Germans appear to be be-
coming better customers than the Irish,
who have always been noted drinkers of
buttermilk. Inc Germans find that
buttermilk is as good as beer, which it is
| never questioned any
of those who bought it by the glass, but
[ have heard it we'll spoken of as
remedy in dyspepsia, and even dysen-
terry. i
This healthier taste on the part of
those who crave stimulaEts is by no
means tickle whim of the season, but
has been growing for five years past.
The swinging screen-doors of scores of
bar-roOms are Ornamented with the
legend, "Ice-cold buttermilk," and AL |
day long those who quaff the beverage
pass in and wet their throats and go de-
corously out.

Cliff DweIIers.

Arizona has a history which has
never been written, says letter to the
San Francisco Chro71icle. 1t is only
told by the empty irrigating canals,
the ruins of populous towns, vacant
broken pottery found in many parts OF
the territory. Before the European
saw his continent two races had lived
and died in Arizona The earliest peo-
pie built their houses in valleys that
are now deep rayines, and the cliff
dwellings that are seen to-day resting
in the sides of deep arroyos two hum
dred feet above the bottom of the
gorge once stood upon solid ground,
and yet so many years have elapsed
since then that now the houses are high
and dry and accessible only to hardy
climbers Time has dug away the
foundations as well as SCARED and
Clipped the habitations. Between
the age of the cliff dwellers and that of
the white man come the race who built
the canals and farmed the valleys.
Dry and parched and barren as great
part of Arizona is to-day, there was
time, of which abundant proof exists.

and when great cities were populated
by an active, capable, and energetic
people. Who were these industrious
beingsa No one can tell. Toltec or
Aztec, black or white, from Egypt or
from Peru, none can say. Time has
nearly destroyed evidences of their ex-
istence. In the lapse of ages their
history has grown almost q mythology.
What race they were, thought No
farming for them, if you please, on
any small scale. They had bitches to
bring water to their crops that would
astonish the soil-tillers Of to-day, and
their houses were castles.
Perhaps the most extensive of their
ruins now are at place called Casa
Grande, in the Gila river valley, six
miles below Florence and FIVE miles
south of the river. When first discoY-
cred by the Spaniards, in 1910, the
largest building of the group was four
stories high and had walls six feet in
thickness A hundred years ago one
house still remained which was 42Ox
200 feet. To-day there is but sugges-
ton left of the former magnifcence Of
the houses, but one may still see that
the walls were made Of mud and
gravel, held together by hard ce-
ment, and the rooms are still coated
with cement. Near Cesa Grande are
the remains Of an irrigating canal
which has been traced for forty miles,
and which must have watered thou
sands Of acres which to-day are dry,
neglected wastes. Miles Of these
wide canals can be seen scattered over
the territory. Everywhere are the evi-
dences Of 3 prehistoric occupation Of
tho land. In building tho city of Pres
cott, wOrkmcn unearthed not only
household and farming implements,
but discovered old foundations as well,
and as Arizona IS settled and explored
there may yet be found more traces Of
the people who lived and died here.

Stories of Ducks.

in fines for careless oaths at the rate OF
