Wart on n Mares Leg.

A correspondent asks the veterinarian
of the Chicago Inter Ocean how to re.
move Il wart between the hoof and pas.
tern joint of Il mares fore leg. The wart
is as large as mans fist. The vet re.
plies:
The simple removal of wart by tying
hgature around the base or cutting il
off close to the skin with knife does
does not always remove the origin of the
morbid growth, which as rule is To-
Gated deep seated in the subcutaneous
tissue; hence the treatment seldom proves
successful unless it is promptly followed
up by the application Of some potent
Caustic-viz, the actual cautery care
fully applied at a white heat, caustic
potash, etc. The scientific and efficient
means of treatment is 10 put the patient
under proper restraint. If necessary,
cast and properly secure the animal,
then with a scalpel proceed to deliberate
ly dissect the wart ont root and branch.
The resulting wound may be dressed
daily with some antiseptic, such as pow
dered boracic acid, iodoform, etc. If dur
lHS luS HedllllS pioCcAs lIie iuoi Dlu grown
should manifest a disposition to sprout,
the caustic should be promptly applied.
The probable location of the wart calls
to mind the necessity for some vigilance
on the part Of the operator. 1t is pos
sible that the base may be located in close
proximity to some of the important blood
vessels on the inside and outside of the
limb in the immediate vicinity of the
fetlock joint, and of course due care
shorld be taken 20 as not to injure them

What Is Anthrax?

This definition is given in bulletin No
10 of the Delaware experiment station:
Anthrax is disease which affects all
domestic animals. Carnivora or flesh
eaters-dogs, for instance-enjoy, it is
true, high degree of protection against
it, but at times they, too, succumb. Man
himself is quite susceptible, and sheep
goats, horned cattle and horses are espe.
cially liable to contract it. The result
depends upon the portion of the body
that is affected.
If the poison passes through the stom.
ach and develops in the intestines, death
follows. If, in the case of man, wound
on the hand or leg gives the poison Ell
trance into the body, then malignant
postules form. Oftentimes such patients
recover-possibly one in five may die.
The same can be said of horned stock,
but sheep and goats, with one or two
curious exceptions, have little or no re-
sisting powers, and anthrax once in a
flock oftentimes claims one-half as vic
tins.
The cause of this disease is a plant too
small by far to be seen by the naked eye.
Under the microscope it looks like a rod
possibly five times as long as it is thick.
Five thousand of these rods put end to
end might measure one inch in length.
This rodlike plant goes to seed under
certain circumstances point to be re-
membered-for it is this popularity
which gives to it almost unlimited pow
er for causing losses, for these seeds can
stand both heat and cold and can lie
for years in a dry place without loss of
vitality. A combination of heat, mois-
ture and food, such as the animal body
offers, may cause the seed to terminate
and develop an epidemic anew
Once within the animal body, anthrax
plants multiply without seed formation,
and if they cause the death of the ami
NAL and it is buried without dissection
or mutilation, Which would allow air to
come into contact with the blood, then
in short time the plant dies, and moth
ing remains to generate future trouble
Almost invariably, however, immediate
ly after death blood exudes from all the
natural openings of the carcass of an
anthrax victim. Such blood does not
coagulate. 1t may sink readily into the
soil or may spread over it in broad pools,
Offering ample opportunity for aeration
and for seed formation within rela-
lively few hours.

Various sanitariums and private hos
pitfalls are using 1.-THE salt rub. and it is
becoming so popular that some Turkish
bath establishments are advertising it as
special attraction. 1t is just as good
for well people as sick ones, is the most
refreshing of all the baths and rubs ever
invented, only excepting a dip in the sea
itself. and is matchless in its effect upon
the skin and complexion. With all these
virtues, it is the simplest, most easily
managed of all similar measures, and
can be taken at home easily.
Put few pounds of coarse salt, the
coarsest you can get, sea salt by prefer
ence, in an earthen jar, and pour enough
water Oh it to produce a sort of slush,
but not enough to dissolve the salt. This
should then be shaken up in handfuls
and rubbed briskly over the entire per-
son. OF course it is better to have ii
rubbed on by another person, but any
one in ordinary health can do it for her
self or himself very satisfactorily. This
being done, the next thing is thorough
douching fclean water, preferably cold,
with brisk rubbing with dry towel.
The effect Of citation, freshness and re-
newed life is felt Immediately, and the
satiny and increased clearness and bright
ness of the complexion swell the testi-
mony in favor of the salt rub. New

How to Make and Keep Beef For HON

How to Make and Keep Beef For Home
Use In Winter.
Mrs. Charles writes in The Rural New
Yorker:
have just been interviewing Mr..
Charles, my better and larger half, in
regard to the young steer he has been
stall feeding for several weeks and was
glad to hear that he would soon be in
good condition for killing. weather per-
hitting, and know he will make deli
cious eating.
He was selected from herd of DC
steers bought in Buffalo last June and
was pasture fed till about six weeks ago.
Since then he has been kept constantly
in the stable, fed on diet of pumpkins,
cornmeal, bran and clover hay. We
killed two such animals last winter and
certainly never had such superior beef
in the house-rich, juicy and tender as
young chicken. The manner in which
we disposed of our beeves last winter
proved so satisfactory that | will de-
scribe it, thinking others may find some
suggestions which will prove helpful to
them.
As soon as we are likely to have steady
cold weather the steer will be slaughter
ed. One fore quarter and one hind quar-
ter will be sold to neighboring farm
ers, who are always glad to avail them
selves of an opportunity to get such
choice meat at so much lower than re-
tail prices. The fore quarter reserved
for ourselves, after hanging week or
two, we shall cut up and pack in 90
gallon crock for corning. Each piece is
thoroughly rubbed with the following
mixture and then packed as solidly as
possible in the large crock or Jar: Four
quarts of rock salt, pounds of brown
sugar, ounces of saltpeter to 100 pounds
of beef.
These jars are far superior to barrels
for this purpose, rs they can be kept
much sweeter, and the jar cannot absorb
the juices of the meat as barrel would.
No water is needed, as the beef juices
will prove sufficient after a few days
standing. A 20 gallon jar will hold
about $50 pounds of meat. Corn beef
prepared in this way will keep several
months in cool weather. though think
the meat fibers are hardened and tough
ened after, say, two months.
canned corned beef in glass fruit jars
last winter very successfully, opening
them in midsummer. The remaining
hind quarter is hung in the large, airy
garnet over the woodshed, where it gen
orally freezes. A steak or roast is cut
off as desired. In favorable weather the
meat will keep two months if desirable.

1t is pleasant to note that dealers in
the centers report growing and active
demand for good roadsters. beyond any
thing seen during the past few years. AT
the same time one must regret that it
needs be recorded that there is great
! trouble in finding what will please Gus
toners, says the Maine Farmer. Take
these statements, in connection with
what may be seen over the farms of
Maine, and the lesson is suggestive, to
say the least Must it be admitted that
something has been wrong with the
breeding or training of the past 10 years:
There are indications which point that
way, yet when one looks for the real
reason it will be found in the develop
ment rather than blood lines.
While there has been much that has
been experimental, the troubles have
multiplied because single object has
been in the mind of the breeder-that of
speed. With the training all centering
about this one thought, and that the
only measure Of worth, it is not surpris-
ing that style and road qualities, if not
one sided cultivation, and that always
insures one sided results, and roadsters
such as are wanted do not belong in this
class. Right here is where the leaders,
the active breeders, have had great ad-
vantage in that they have held to the
rounded rather than the one sided stand
ard, while the man with Il single mare
or the farmer with his many duties has
been swept off his feet by the thought of
speed values or the great price realized
by some fortunate neighbor.
This explains why so many understood
horses are to be found, and if it be
true it suggests the lesson which is en-
forced SO many times in our columns,
that of mating and breeding, of feeding
and developing with the thought of the
perfect whole, the horse for the road
first, last and all the while, leaving the
question of speed to special speed pro
ducers. In this there is a sure safe bust
ness basis on which to stand for all
time.

Few young animals could show more
beef to the square inch than she does.
The Herefords and Devons are the two
Oldest breeds of domesticated cattle in
existence so far as is known. The Here
fords are the standard beef breed of old
England. In this country they are more
common in the New England and mid
die states than in the west, though OF
recent years this fine strain of blood has
been used to make tender the steaks OF
the original Texas steer.
The Herefords make as good oxen as
the Devons except in one respect. and
that is they are not such fast walkers.
