Treatment FOR WARTS.

How to Cure One of the Cows Most Dis
tressing Summer Ailments.
In summer cows are apt to grow
large numbers of tiny warts on their
teats. From handling them while
milking, these warts often become
very sore and cause the COW much
pain, from which she becomes uneasy
and restless, provoking the mixer to
anger and sometimes to blows. It is
easy enough to say the farmer should
discharge any man who would strike a
COW, especially when she is in pain,
but this remedy imposes a certain
amount of punishment upon the farm
err himself by compelling him to look
up another man ut busy season when
they are hard to find. The proper rem
edy is for the owner of such cows to
take them in hand himself, and not
only milk them carefully. but begin to
doctor them, in order to remove the
cause of this restlessness as soon as
possible. AS very general rule these
warts are so easily removed that there
are innumerable presc riptions made up
and prepared by lay doctors, who. in
each instance, think they have found
a sure cure for every case. This, how
ever, is not always the fact, for some-
times the COW is so badly affected that
nothing but scientific treatment will
accomplish permanent cure. For this
reason it is best to try first the most
simple remedy, such as plain lard APP
piled night and morning. If this fails
then use sal soda and tie threads
around the largest warts, close
up to the roots, and tie
the thread very tightly. T.
you are still unsuccessful then try
lunar caustic, and do not be in too
great a hurry with it, but apply il
lightly and only once a day or it will
make the warts very sore. BY apply
ing this caustic three or four times
week you will be about certain to eff.
feet a cure, but it is best to take the
case in hand as soon as your attention
is called to the warts. It is thought
by some dairymen that warts are
catching" and that COW with them
will cause them to come on other cows
In the herd, but the probabilities are
that the same causes that produce them |
on one are at work on all other mem
bers of the herd.-American Dairy |

We CLIP. e following article from a
Colorado paper in regard to clean up"
which we think to some will be an item
Of news. although written in country
where the get all their water by irrigation:
'.How many of our farmers keep the

There is nothing that makes a place
look meaner than to have things lying
around in every conceivable place. A
little time now and then. if agent in pick
ing up, will make vast difference in
the looks of things around farm house
and barns.
Have place for all pieces of boards
that will be of use in the future. Put
the farm tools under the shed. if you
have one. and if not it is necessities of

Clean up the yard and plant few trees
each year, and in few years you will
have nice cool place to stop in the heat
of the day. If practicable. and the land
about the house can be irrigated, spend
few hours each day and have a small
lawn Nothing adds more to looks of a
place.
Some folks think the farmers in the
west have to rough it. There is no more
need of farmers in Kansas to eat off of
rough boards and tin plates than to go to
market afOOt.
An old timer was telling me that a GER
tain man could not make money on a
ranch. as he had his house carpeted and
used earthen and silverware every day
on his table. For me. when l cannot

Farmers can have just as pleasant

In an English Court.

In an English court recently MT. Justice Hawkins said: "This is an exceedingly trumpery case; not that that is distinctive description, because most of the cases that come here are trumpery." The lawyers be- gan to endeavor to exonerate their client. My client, my lord, was most anxious to avoid these proceedings. We have simply been dragged here by my friend" "On the Scontrary, my lord," said the other lawyer, i've have been literally goaded into itiga- tion by the conduct of my friends client. " "Oh, yes," replied the judge, "I quite under stand. The plaintiff has been driven to bring this action by the exasperating resist ance of the defendant to his unjust claim."- New York Sun.

Fraud in the Mummy.

If you don't want to be swindled in num- mics, choose only the dried up, "ornery" ones There is said to be great deal of fraud in the mummy business in Egypt. The dealers are aware that purchasers will pay 8 higher price for we'll preserved mummies, and as no genuine mummies are we'll pre- served they contract with tramps, beggars, etc., for their bodies when defunct The money paid to the mummies that are to be, of course, is spent in dissipation, which hastens their death. Then the dealers pickle and smoke their bodies until they are what an ideal mummy should be. And the first rich Christian dog" who comes along sees them and pays & big price for one of them, with an elaborate pedigree running back to the days of Sesostris thrown in.-New York Tribune
