American Demand for uero,oro..

After a long calm, during which the
expectations of Hereford cattle have
been few and far between, home breed
ers are once more hopeful of good de-
mand from Canada and the United
States, says London Live Stock Jour-
nal. Letters from people in authority
across the Atlantic state that the trade
for Herefords there is undoubtedly re-
viving, and that a number of buyers
contemplating coming over to England
in the spring to make selections per-
sonally. Some OF the most sanguine
home breeders think there is about TO
be another American boom, only on
more reasonable lines than the last.
for extra sires on ranches where the
Hereford strain has made itself con-
spicuously profitable, for the introduc
ton of Hereford bulls amongst cattle
where they have not been previously
tried, and for fresh blood in pedigree
herds. The demand is coming very OBJ
portunely now that the depression in
agriculture is more severely felt, even
in fruitful Herefordshire. II is the jub-
flee of the Hereford Herd Book socie-
~, which has done so much towards
maintaining the purity and pedigree of
the Hereford breed. Next year Is the

tension OF trade will also help the Here.

CHICAGO A ROARING RIVER.
Scientists Predict That state of Affair
For 1897.

SIatt VI
For 1897.
Prof. Spencer's address before the
members Of the American Association
for the advancement of science at De-
troit last week attracted great COM
ment at that assembly. He made a
prediction, based on figures which he
presented, that the course of the lakes
was being changed, and that in time
Detroit would be good fishing where
the city hall now stands, and shortly
after the waters of the lakes would be
pouring over Chicago toward the Mis-
sissippi, and Niagara Falls would cease
to exist. Prof. Spencer said that he
agreed with Prof. Gilbert that there
was gradual upward fitting of the
earth's crust at the northwest, and this
discovery showed it was the cause of
the closing of the Ontario basin. BY
data showing that the shore line of the
lakes was changing and the waters
were gradually rising at the rate of
about an inch in ten years to the south
west, he demonstrated that the whole

rection. He said this would seem of
trifling Importance, but 1t was really
serious matter for Chicago, because
that city stands on a low plain. The
work of cutting the Chicago drainage
canal, he said, was a mere anticipation
of nature, for the fitting of the lake
basin would have produced the same
result in less than a thousand years
Prof. Spencer demonstrated by figures
that at one time the Erie basin emp
tied, not by the Niagara river, but by
buried valley, directly into the head
of Lake Ontario, and that Niagara
river and falls were modern features
He also showed that the gorge near the
falls was eating its way backward al
a rate of over a foot year, and that
in the course OF a few lifetimes II
would wipe itself out. He and Prof
Gilbert agree that the calamity which
will bury all lower Michigan and make
q broad river through Illinois will not
occur until 1897.

The MILK Can.

At a convention in Minnesota, ]. X.
Bennett said, among other things: I'm
the care of cans, they are to be kept
clean and free from rust. They should
be washed as soon as possible after
being used. Rinse first with cold wa
ter, then scrub thoroughly with a
brush both inside and outside, using
warm water-almost hot, or better, a
good soap suds, use it often anyhow.
Give particular attention to the seams
and don't forget the outsides. You
know the inside is often judged by the
outside. Finish with scalding water.
Turn your cans upside down long
enough to allow them to drain; then
leave them right side up, or on their
sides in the fresh air, and you will
have clean, sweet cans. 1t is a very
common error to leave them over q
stake. or on a board. This is a serious
mistake, as invariably the cans will
sour thereby. The hot air or steam
rises and has no escape, consequently
condenses in the cans and sours. Much
milk otherwise well cared for Is often
tainted from no other reason. A rusty
can should not be used, as it imparts
a foreign flavor to milk.

Cnnteat In MICHIGAN.

It is said that dealers in Detroit have
determined to put up a fight against
the enforcement of the anti-color law
in the state of Michigan, says Elgin
Dairy Report. 1t seems to us the hand
lers and dealers of this product are
either utterly lost to all question OF
right and justice or are so satisfied
with their own wisdom in regard to the
Interpretation of the law that they can
see months ahead what the decision of
the court will be, and therefore become
law breakers rather than law abiding
citizens. The dairy commissioner says
that the law will be enforced in the
state of Michigan, the manufacturers
and dealers in oleo to the contrary not
withstanding. The dairy commission
err will have the whole commonwealth
to support him, and We hope must
earnestly that he will succeed in con-
vincing these violators that the law was
meant to be obeyed and not disobeyed.
The dairy commissioner ana authori-
ties of that state have, of course, an
advantage over the parties who are en-
deavoring to enforce the law in our
state Of Illinois. There no appropria-
ton was made nor officers designated
to enforce the law except in a general
way, and yet we believe the fight that
is being put up now in our state will
result in driving out of the state all
manufacture of oleo colored in imita-
ton Of butter.

Feeding Poultry.

Milk, II the vessels or troughs con-
tanning 1t are kept sweet and cleanly,
may with advantage be kept where
fowls can get to 1t at any time. Other
kinds of food should be given at regu-
lar times and only in the quantities
that will be then consumed, says an ex-
change. 1t is simply wasteful to throw
out to them a large quantity of food in
order that they have 1t within reach
all through the day. Much of it will be
scattered about, lost, or so filthy that
your fowls ought not to eat 1t. Besides
this. all poultry require a certain
amount OF exercise in order to be
healthy, and this exercise they will not
take unless driven by appetite to hunt
for part of their food. And 1t is prob
able that needed qualities of food OBJ
tanned by so hunting aid in the assimi-
lation of the ordinary feed given to
them. The careless feeding of unneces-
sary quantities at time prevents hens
frem laying as they would IL not over
fed. and those intended for the table or
market, are fattened best by giving to
them only so much as they will clean
up at each meal.

The wife has no duties; nothing in
their lives exercises her skill, her
brain power or her ingenuity. Her
husband receives 10 help or delight
from the labor of her hands or as
the result of her good judgment. Half
OF her endowments are lying dormant
and almost every power she has is
dulled from want of use. After her
husband leaves her for his Office, she
has to think out some occupation for
the day. She shops and visits; If she
is musical. she practices a little; If
she is bookish, she goes, perhaps, to
literary class or a lecture. Nothing
taxes her resources, no one is help
ed or benefited by her wise rule. Lack
ing that great prop and staff, personal
responsibility, she has no taste of the
JOY of a personal achievement and sue
cess. There is no way in which either
husband or wife can express themselves
in the material things by which they
are surrounded. These furnished
rooms are to their personal character
istics like ready-made clothing to
their bodies, and betray in one way
and another that they are insists"

In smaller boarding houses, where the

of criticism and gossip find such con-
genial soil in which to lodge their

Our representative called at 90 Battle

out the following facts. Mr. Robbins tells
of his wife's experience in manner that

how she has suffered during past years.
For twenty years she has been afflicted
with the various forms of kidney com
plant and an enlargement of the liver.
She was often confined to her bed for more
than two weeks at time suffering untold
agony. She has doctored constantly, and
| have paid out in doctors bills for her
alone as much as 100000, and then her re-
lief was only such that she would be able
TO be around for spell. Some time ago
she felt the symptoms of another attack
coming on, such as pain in through the
kidneys and back. / hardly know what
induced me to get box of Doan's Kidney

commenced their use. 1t was a surprise
to us both to see their action; the attack.
was warded off, and she continued taking
them with marked improvement each day
of their use. She is better now than she
has been in years, the pain in the back and
others in the kidneys have entirely gone.
