CURE For LoCKJAw.-Dr. J. G.
Hatch, an old physician Of over 10
years practice recommends the fol-
lowing treatment for lockjaw, hay
ing successfully tried it on him
self and others. If any person is
threatened or taken with lock jaw,
from injuries on the hands, feet,
arms or legs, do not wait for the
doctor, but put the injured part
into the following prepartion: Put
hot wood ashes into water warm
as can borne on the injured part,
then wet thick folded clothes in
the water and apply them to the
part as soon as possible, and at the
same time bathe the back bone
from the neck down, with some
powerful laxative stimulant, say
cayenne pepper and water or mus
tard and water good vinegar is
better than water). 1t should be
as hot as the patient can bear it,
DO not hesitate; go to work and
Go it, and don't stop until the jaws
open. No person need die Of lock-
Jaw if these directions are follow

URGING A GENERAL SLAUGHTER
OF DoGs.-Farmers seem to have
IN unusual awakening in regard
to mischief performed by dogs, es-
pecially dogs Of killing pro-
pensities. In several State Legis-
latures bills have been introduced
having for their object repression
Of the dog nuisance. We do not
learn that any favorable action has
been taken. but there is hope in
the situation when farmers begin
to require enactment Of laws to re-
strain dogs. The Husbandman
declares that eff all the farmers
could only have a true conception
of the immense cost Of keeping
dogs. to say nothing about the
damage done to tlocks by them,
they would insist upon immediate
action; in fact, they might them
selves act with profit. They keep
too many worthless dogs. Let
each man begin slaughtering his
own wrctched ours, and he will
then have deeper interest in far
ther reduction Of the number.
There are localities, whole town
ships perhaps, in which the cost
of keeping dogs, including mis-
chief done by them, is much great
er than the cost Of maintaining
schools, and all this cost is prac-
tically waste. Not one dog in
hundred is worth one cent beyond
the value Of his skin, and his rot
ted carcass, for that is worth some
thing as manure. 1t is strange
that farmers do not move at once
to reformation in this matter,
which in an economic sense is 80
