In order I'd eaiui tito ahxieties Of ths
public respecting the consumption OF

authorities have passed a law requiring

from the official veterinary surgeon in

of the arrival of the purchase. AS a
further protection, all dairy cattle are

eminent veterinary surgeon, who Is
also empowered to report on the sani'
tary condition of the COW stables dnd
surroundings.
These measures are not untimely in
presence of the heavy human mortality
from tuberculous affections; of the in
creasing use of milk as diet, and of the
communications of tuberculosis from
milk from diseased cows-a fact now
placed beyond controversy. The re-
cent RESEARCHES of DR.. Bang, of Copen
hagen, have established that milk can
contain the Koch bacillus OF tubercu
losis without the milk glands or udder
exhibiting the symptoms of that dis
ease, though the latter was detected on
the COW being slaughtered. The disease
germs can exist in the cream as well
as in the creamed milk despite no ex'
ternal signs of the malady being per-
ceptible.
TO sterilize the microbes in milk the
Pasteur plan of heating the liquid and
then rapidly cooling down is resorted
to. A temperature of 1853 to 1917 degrees
Fahrenheit does not kill the septic ami
malcules; it rather checks the rapidity
| of their multiplication. Prof. DuclauX
| has shown that even at the boiling
point vitality is not conquered in the
ferment germs, an additional twelve
degrees is necessary to make sure
Highly heated milk loses none of its
nutritive qualities, but is not so easy
of digestion as the ordinary milk, anc
acquires the cooked flaver that so many
dislike. Milk thus heated and PLACED

Gnnd Feed for Poultry.

The following is good feed for the
poultry, and admits of variety. Take
about three -fourths of full feed OF
oats and soak it in water for about fiji
teen minutes. A large amount of water
is not required for the soaking. Place
with the oats spoonful or two OF
ground bone, and then add bran enough
to absorb all the water. When this
mixture is made it resembles chop feed,
and it should be given to the fowls in
the morning. At noon throw wheat in
places where the hens will have to work
l., get it, and at evening give a full al
lowance of corn. The feed can be
changed, and barley, rice, or other
grains given for the midday meal. The
morning feed may also be changed, but

RARELY A BEAUTY.

The Woman Who Wears Well Possessed
of More Intelligence Than Good Looks.
Many women please at first sight and
charming, but seldom, If ever, do these
brilliantly attractits 6hea Niedf Well
III short time they either feel well
enough acquainted to cease trying TO
be agreeable as at first, or they have in
reality talked themselves out, Per-
hnps they are Naih and others do hot see
Al to pander to such evident self love.
BE that as it may, when the reaction
comes, the admirers and adorets of the
first tia@ os t,so discover that the wit
was not spontaneous, the graceful man
ner natural or the interest in their
affairs genuine, and they drop the flash
ing, brilliant meteor and look about
for the steady glowing star that sheds
its bright radiance on all about In u
quiet, unbbsttusive manner, yet with
beauty all its own that is wonderfully
taking The woman who wears well
is rarely beauty. If She were perhaps
she would consider her pefsonal perfec-
lions so great that she would deem it
unnecessary to cultivate the graces of
heart and mind that prove so attractive
to those about her.
She is usually possessed of rare in
telligencc, which lights up her coun-
tenance as no 'mere beauty could ever
do; desire to please, which an unsela
fish disposition naturally helps her to
accomplish:
She sinks her own identity and af-
fairs in those of others, and keeps
sunny face turned toward the world,
her own troubles pushed far away out
of sight, while she does her best to as
sua &c those of others.
She is at no time either wonderfully
exacted or correspondingly depressed.
She is always the same, yet never
monotonous, as her originality is one
of her chief charms.
If she marries she will love her hus-
band with all her heart and to him she
will seem treasure far above the
scintillating but changeable beauties

DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

THE COW that has not had good treat
ment through the winter will show the
result in marked manner in the
spring
THERE are many people who take
tirst-rate care of their horses, but neg
lect their cows. Why? Is not the COW
entitled to as good treatment as the
horse?
TREAT the cow as if she were lady,
some one has said Treat her as if she
were a COW. That is all there is to do.
1t is the duty of intelligent men to treat
every beast kindly, and the COW, es-
pecially,. will pay well for all such
treatment.
RUNNING streams on farms are estl-
mated far above their value, in our
opinion. Contagious diseases among
animals have often been spread by run
ming streams. Whatever impurities get
into them above, of course, must come
below. A good well, with a good wind
mill, is the safest and best in the long
un.-Farmer's Voice.
