punches came on her stiles and she was
very lame. ! thought at one time
should lose her. Ihavc been feeding herthe
powder. She has recovered from the
iameness, the punches are nearly gone,
and she is now giving nearly as mu'h
milk as before she run down. Among
the other herds there were three other
cases similar to hers, and they are all
improving.
A lew weeks AGO | commenced to feed
all my cows with it, giving them two
doses per week. They Immediately
gained in their milk and made several
pounds more butter per week.

Kow-KURE Co
DEAR SIRs:-The following statement
of facts is sent to you tor what II IS
worth: There was certainly an epidemic
of abortion in the herd OF dairy cows
here under nv charge. We used your
Kow.Kow, and we have apparently got
rid Of he abortion. My previous expert
ence with this trouble has been such that
don't feel able to saw the powder
stopped it, but the facts here strongly
favor that assumption.
During the years 1888 and 1889 there
were ten (10) abortions here on the
Agricult ural College farm, and but three
81 calves were dropped on time and
lived.
In January, 1890, at the suggestion OF
Mr.. A. |. Hayward, we obtained some OF
your Kow-Kure, and begin using it as a
preventive OF abortion. mo record was
kept regarding its influence on the yield
OF milk. During this year we have had
eight (S) live calves, and good ones, and
but one case of abortion. This one case
was late in the season, and a heller; this
animal had refused TO tat her grain when
the powders were mixed in it. and think
ing the disease had disappeared, we
made no special effort to get her to take
the medicine. We have a pure bred AYR
shire that aborted first calf in 1888.
and again in 1889; she is now carrying
her cali well, and is within a few days o
her right period ofcalving. y
Very respectfully yours,
