a NEW DEODORANT.
Bronoinc as a Cheap and Effective Disin-
fectant.

Brocoinc as a Cheap and Effective Dfsin-
fectant.
Bromine has for long time been recog-
nized as being valuable in the treatment OF
gangrene and foul-smelling ulcers; but I'M
til recently its merits IS an efectual and
cheap deodorant have not been appreciated,
according to the New York Medical Jour
nal 1t was brought into prominence few
months ago by Mr.. Martin, the chemist OF
che Health Department of this city, who
suggested its use upon the earth thrown up
IN laying the electric subways. AS 1T Is
by-product obtained in the manufacture OF
salt, and is not used extensively IN the arts,
it is sold at a very reasonable price-aoout
seventy cents per pound. 1t has the prop
erty of precipitating the hydrocarbons OF
Illuminating gas, and thus can be used to
deodorize the earth exposed in excavations
IN the vicinity of gas mains. More valuable
than this is its effect upon decomposing or
ganic bodies, which it renders completely
inoffensive. This property renders 1t par
ticularly valuable for use in stables, prlyy
vaults, urinals, cesspools, or IN any place
which may contain foul-smeling organic
matters. 1t is soluble in about thirty-three
parts of water; but a solution OF this
strength IS not advisable, as there is a con-
slant escape from it Of the vapor OF bromine,
which is very irritating to the eyes and air
passages, and which may even attack wood
and metals.
Fer ordinary purposes it is used in solu-
tons con taiuing one part by weight to about
eigh. hundred of water. In this strength
it may be used freely without its affecting
any thing which it may touch. A few ga
Ions used daily will remove all amuonlacal
odors from stables, or few quarts VIII
thoroughly deodorize the entire plumbing
system of an ordinary house. 1t also might
be used with advantage upon ordinary
house garbage, which usually becomes
offensive so speedily in warm weather
There would appear 70 be scarcely any
limit to its usefulness in this branch OF
sanitary science; and il viii, as soon as its
merits are better known, undoubtedly Dc
adopted universally as substitute for the
6eodorants now IN use, which usually act
oy substituting one unpleasant odor for
another. TIE only drawback IN It's use hes
in the fact that the undilu.ed bromine is
strongly corrosive, and, If il touches the
SKIN, causes . painful burn Where II Il
used il large quantities this can be oovl-
ated By opening the bottle, or, what is SIM

becomes more extended. it Will undoubtedly

no HORN VS.. DEHOHN.

Saving, with Its Consequent SUFFERING TO
Yield to Chemicals, with No Pain.
At tho recent agricultural and stock
meetings held at Madison, Wis, says the
Orange Judd Farmer, a large number OF
those present listened to Mr.. John March.
of Wisconsin, as he explained his recently
discovered method of dehorning calves by
the application of chemical compound to
the embryo horn. He Illustrated his expla-
nation with the skull of an animal to only
one side of which the chemical dehorner
had been applied, with the result shown in
the exact reproduction herewith OF the skull.
1t is, of course, very much reduced, but our
artist has even shown the hole of the bullet
with which the animal was killed In
paper on this subject delivered before the
Joint convention, Mr. March, after discuss
ing the various arguments pro and con, on
the subject OF dehorning, concluded that
both sides claimed too much, and continuing
said:
"All that can be said in favor Of saving
nff horns can be said in favor of my process,
and much more, too, while none of the OBJ
jections brought against the saw can be
brought against my method. 1t completely
fills the bill and silences all opposition. 1t
Is cheaper than the saw; painless, il done
as directed; leaves no mark or discolored
hair; opens no cavity in the head; not a
drop Of blood is lost; no malformity Is pro-
duced; no one can tell the calves from
natural Polls, and no bad results follow Its
use. 1t is easily applied; boy or girl
twelve or fourteen years old can make the
application. One good application is all that
IS required No after treatment can be
given, only severe letting alone 1t re-
mains for months until the forces Of nature
give UP the contest and retire, leaving the
calf hornless and with a neatly-shaped head,
and in few generations all breeds thus
treated will breed hornless. Every breed
can now retain all its peculiarities minus
their horns.
"At birth there is the rudiment Of every
thing found in the fully-developed animal.
The horn is not developed at once. Destroy
the rudiment before the forces that are 10
develop it are directed to its development
and you weaken the forces. This is clearly
shown by this head. (See illustration.)
See how different the two sides are. Re-
peat the operation on few generations and
the propensity TO grow horns will be OBJ
liberated. From what have said and shown
is it not clear that we can not afford TO
grow horns when for the small sum Of FIVE
cents per head, without the help Of our
neighbors and lot of fixtures that are use
less for any thing but saving of horns, we

WASHINGTON LETTER.
(FrOm our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON. JulV 5. 1889,


WASHINGTON. July 5, 1889.
Senators Allison, Cullom and Chan
dler have held a number of important
political conferences with influential re-
Republicans here this week, beginning
with the President before he went away
Tuesday afternoon and continuing
through the week with others. The sub
jects under consideration were the com
ing elections in thefour new states and the
calling of al extra session of Congress so
as to get the House organized and ready
for work before the Christmas holidays.
The new states are all believed to be re-
publican Notwithstanding the result of
the recent election IN Montana, but
information lately received as to secret
deals the democrats have made with
certain railroads has opened the eyes of
the republican leaders to the fact that
some hard work is necessary to defeat
the democrats in Montana and one of the
Dakota's. The consultations held this
out this work. It is now believed to be
all fixed. and the democrats will find
their secret railroad deals proitless. AS
to the extra session it has been decided
that one will he called about the first of
November. 1t was first thought that the
first of October would be better date.
but owing to the very narrow republican
majority in the House, which sickness
or death might wipe out entirleY, it was
concluded to select the former date be
cause that would give the members el-
ected from the new states, who are expect
ed to be all republicans, chance to take
their seats.
Senator Ingalls, paid Washington a
flying visit this week. He says the
people in Kansas are to busy with their
crops to bother their heads about
politics, and that the administration is
popular out there, same as here.
Secretary Rusk has appointed Mrs
Mary Ann Dougherty to a subordinate
position in the department of Agriculture.
