Thn Lost Atlantis.

For many centuries there has been a tradi-
tion of q lepg lost island called Atlanta
The Greek geographers located IL In the
Atlantic Ocean, west Of the northwest part
Of Africa and the Pillars of Hercules The
sea-kngs OF Atlantis are said 20 have in
vnded Europe and Africa, and to have been
defeated by the Athentans.
All the legends agree that 10 was vast
island, Of inexhaustible resources, and in-
habted by race OF superior people, Fer
ages this island has existed only In legendary
lore But now, when the light Of modern
research Is turned full upon the investiga-
ton, behold the lost Atlantis at our very
doors.
So the bigoted medical fraternity goes
cropping about in the dark, seeking for an
Atlantis or Fsculapius, when II they would
investigate, they would behold the lost At
lantis at their very door. With their ancient
text book, a case Of physic, a paper in their
waistcoat giving them license to practice ex-
pertinent and dose with their injurious drugs,
csuterlze and perform unnecessary acts with
no pers IN or laws to hold thep1 accountable,
they continue their bigoted, uniustiled prac-
tice, staring into vacancy, and imagining
that they see in themselves an Escuapius
Wrapped in ancient bigotry, they are cry
ing out against all improvements that have
been made in medical science. They de-
nouuCe any new idea advanced by a layman
or an opposition school as a fraud.
Whyl
Because humanity will not be benentedl }
Not at all, but because their speciaism did
not make the discovery.
Yet they concede that there is no remedy
known 10 their ma eria medica that will cure
an advanced kidney malady and the diseases
arising therefrom-although many of them
know from crowning proof that Warmers
Safe Cure will-but unscrupulously treat
symptoms and call them disease when in
reality they know they are hut symptoms
A few Of the more honest physicians ad-
init that Warmers Safe Cure is valuable
remedy and great blessing to mankind but
say, in so many words when asked why they
do not prescribe it, that they cannot accord
ing to their code.
Nevertheless, the world is fast becoming
satisfied that the cure for kidney and liver
disease, in whatever form or condition. has
been discovered, and there is no doubt but
what Warmers Safe Cure and its fame will
live long after such bigotry as we have in
stanced is dead and buried
The late eminent physician and writer, DR..
j. g. Holland, published in Scribner's
MonthlB, and showed his pnion of such big
otry, and no doubt was satisfied that Atlantis
might possibly be discovered in proprie-
tary medicine, when he wrote editorialiy, rs
follows
Nevertheless il is fact that many of the
best proprietary medicines of the day were
more successful than many of the physicians,
and most of them, it should b. remembered,
were first discovered or used in actual Inedi-
cal practice. When, however, any shrewd
person, knowing their virtue, and foreseeing
their popularity, secures and advertises
them, then in the opinion of the bigotei, all
virtue went ont of them.N

Benefits of Land Drainage.

Drainage of land is beneficial in more
ways than the mere removal of water
from the land. The winter with its
trosts brings to mind one very import
ant advantage gained in respect of the
absence of excessive cold from the land.
Wet land freezes very deeply, because
it is not only compact and filled with
water, but the cold penetrates more
Its interstices, and the free ling expands
it so that the roots are torn and the plant
suffers serious in ury. Light frosts thus
lift the surface soil and cause what is
known as heaviDg, which results in the
disastrous winter killing of fall grain,
grass and clover. The warmth of drained
and, secured by the removal of the
water and the existence of air spaces all
through the soil, is of very considerable
benefit at all seasons, but most especially
in the winter, and should not be ignored
by those farmers whose land is water
soaked at any time.
ndrained land is always wet in the
spring and Can never be worked as early
as drained land can. This delay some
times is a serious obstacle to farm work
and often reduces the crop one-half or
more. And any land in which water ap-
pears in the furrow or which is so wet as
TO smear the modboard in the spring
needs draining. Water is doubtless in
dispensable to plant growth, as it is to
the life and growth of animals, but as an
animal perishes when it is submerged in
the water so plants will perish when the
roots are submerged. Stagnant water is
deadly to plants, not only because it
destroys their life, but because the eX-
cess of water so dilutes the dissolved food
as to 9tarve the plants by depriving them
of nutriment. These are sufficient rea-
sons of themselves why wet land should
be drained, and some land that is not
always wet needs drainage as well as the
wettest, for smothering in water or the
temporary Withholding of nutriment for
even a short time is quite as fatal as if
these obstacles to life were permanent.

An Humble but True Hero.

At an obscure station IN Northern
Iowa three years ago there were two
ladies awaiting to take train. A tramp,
drunk enough to be ugly and quarrel
some, whose hand, like Ishmael's, was
against every man, came in and amused
himself by directing insulting remarks TO
them. The operator was receiving an
order to hold the coming train, and did
not hear. As he passed through the
waiting-room to put out the red flag the
ladies appealed to him. He ordered the
fellow out and receiving abuse in return
attempted to push him through the open
door when the brute drew a concealed
dirk and stabbed him. The operator,
knowing it to be his death wound, made
no outcry, had no word of Ieproach for
his murderer, no repining at his own
fate, sent no last message to the loved
ones whom this towards act had bereft.
He simply extended the flag which he
still held to the ladies, and saying, "Put
it out" fell lifeless at their feet. Mime

Hints for the Swine Herd

Keep large and small separate and not
more than ten in lot. Feed regularly
and literally of wholesome food, always
some bulky food, and let each feed be
taken up clean before more Is given.
Give wallowing places, ashes, charcoal
and salt, and plenty of exercise in tim
Der pastures yielding shade, roofs, nuts.
lcorns, etc. But no doubly soured slops.
Provide ventilated shelters from wind,
rain and snow, but no litter Hogs with
litter get too warm. lfyou wish disease,
put your hogs to the straw pile. Main
tain cleanliness in all things. Breed cnly
mature animals and never from a show
herd. The offspring of immature or
pampared animals is predisposed TO DIS
ease. Give pure water, from deep wells
protected from surface water. Well
water is not freezing cold in winter nor
lukewarm in summer. Water from
creeks (unless fed by springs, ponds or
pools is disease breeding. Pigs should
be farrowed in early spring and kept only
On growing foods-milk, bran slops,
pats, green rye grasses, clover and sweet
rorn-until late fall; then fatten rapidly,
On corn mostly, but also green rye blue
grass, pumpkins, boiled potatoes and
turnips, with bran, steamed clover, hay,
etc.
Kindness will do much more toward
controlling an ill-natured SOW with a
young litter than club or heavy boot.
By rough treatment the farmer can get
al the fight out of an old SOW he wants,
and more. In handling an unruly sow
It is well not to get scared before
getting hurt; oftentimes there is more
noise than fight. If necessary to handle
Soung pigs and the SOW objects to your
presence, when she is lying down quietly
spread blanket or large sack over her
head so she cannot see you; then hold
your tongue and quietly do the work.

viciousness Descends.

Viciousness is inherited, as much as
the virtues are Breeders should, there
fore, be on guard against using vicious
animals for breeding, and as far as pos
sible train and manage their stock to Sc
cure the most docile disposition. This
is not only a great convenience, but is
economical and profitable. That noted
horse Messenger was exceedingly saw
age, and transmitted this quality to
some of his most valued descendants /;
Royal George, in particular, was so
vicious that his owner kept him in a
stable four years idle, for fear of him,
and he killed one groom and severely
injured Others. This quality of docility
is invaluable in the dairy, for many val
liable lives are yearly sacrificed by the
ill-nature of bulls. 1t is equally valuable
in beef cattle, for quiet animal is fed
much easier and quicker than an unruly

Cleanliness in Drying Apples.

One of the great apple regions of this
country is in the counties of Wayne,
Monroe, Orleans and Niagarain Western
New York. Apples are largely trans
ported to the Atlantic city markets, aud
thence exported to foreign lands, but in
recent years the evaporating business has
grown to large dimensions, and the pro.
duction and export of the dried fruit has
greatly increased. Within a part of the
area of the counties above-named are
some 1000 evaporating establishments,
some of them disposing of 1000 bushels
of apples each day. Not less than 30,
600 hands are employed and the value of
the product runs into the millions. As
100 pounds of the fruit yield about
twelve pounds of the dried product, some
idea of the drain upon the orchards may
be formed. There is, of course. a great
saving in the freight charges upon the
dried fruit. A case of fifty pounds from
New York to Liverpool would cost thirty
cents, while the equivalent in apples
would cost $2.25. There is also the loss
from deterioration in the fresh fruit from
which the evaporated is free. One point
is of the greatest importance in the pro
duction of dried fruit in evaporating
establishments, and that is the element
CT scrupulous cleanliness. We have seen
carelessness and neglect in some concerns
which if witnessed by a consumer would
turn him forever against this product.
They should make cleanliness a habit

Remedv for scabbv Icr..

What is called "scabby legs" in poultry
is due to the presence of a small mite
somewhat similar to the species which
causes scab in sheep. If scab is re-
moved from the leg of fowl and placed
under a microscope of high power, the
mites and pupp may be seen in large
numbers. An ointment made Of equal
parts Of lard and kerosene, and then
slightly thickened with towers of sui
phur, will destroy the mites and cause
the fungus-like growths to drop off,
leaving the legs and feet clean and
smooth. Two or three applications of
this ointment will usually be sufficient to
effect cure. .--Ne,o York Sun.

FARM AND GARDEN.
