Abortion (SIinking) in Cows.

Prof. Henry E. Alvord, one of the
best known agriculturists in
America, when director of the
Maryland Agricultural Expert
ment Station, in letter tells how
he treated this disease.
AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE, p. o., MD,
Dec. 2G, 1890.
Dear SirS The following statement of
facts is sent you for what it is worth.
There was certainly an epidemic OF abor-
ton in the herd OF dairy cows here I'M
der my charge. We used your Kow-
kure, and we have apparently got rid of
the abortion. My previous experience
with this trouble has been such that |
don't feel able to say the powders stop
ped it, but the facts here strongly favor
that assumptions.
During the years lSSS and 1889 there
were ten abortions here on the Agricul-
tural College farm, and but three calves
were dropped on time and lived.
In January, 1880, at the suggestion of
Mr.. y. /. Hayward, we obtained some of
your kow-kure, and began using it as
a preventive Of abortion. During this
year we have had eight live calves. and
good ones. and but one case of abortion.
This one case was late in the season.
and heller; this animal had refused TO
eat her grain when the powders were
mixed in it, and thinking the disease had
disappeared, we made no special effort
to get her to take the medicine. We
have pure bred Ayrshire that aborted
first calf in lSSS, and again in 1889:
she i now carrying her calf well and is
within few days of the right period of
calying. Very respectfully yours.

Massachusetts is blessed with a mum.
Der of good sized cities and in view Of
the manner IN which electricity and BIZ
cyles have been displacing horses 10 the
larger towns it was to be expected that
statistics would show falling of in the
number of horses in the Bay State as
compared with previous years. On this
account the number of these animals Is
peculiarly noticeable. 1t would appear
from this showing that more horses
were being used in Massachusetts than
ever before, and inasmuch as similar in
fluences are at work in all of the cities of
considerable size in this country it is to
be assumed that a similar condition of af.
fairs exists In most other States.
A little reflection will show that the
increasing demand for horses in the
large cities, in spite of the influences
operating against the use cf horse mower,
Is not so strange after all. 1t is true
that the substitution of the trolley and
the cable as means of street car propul-
sion, and the increasing popularity of
the bicycle and the introduction of the
hOrseless carriage have combined to
diminish the demand for horses in GER
tain directions; but other influences have
been at work in the meantime to more than
compensate for the disuse of horses in
the fields named. 1t is safe to say that
the increase in the use of teams for the
delivery of goods by the mercantile
houses and other dealers in large cities
would alone nearly make good the num-
Der of horses displaced on the street car
lines. There are also other fields in
which the horse is not likely to be dis
placed, at least for decades to come, and
the demand for these animals will In all
probability increase rather than diminish
In view of these developments we re-
peat our advice to the horse breeders of
Vermont, not to be discouraged by the
present low prices commanded by their
stock. This state of affairs is certain to
lead breeders in other sections of the
country to abandon this industry to a
greater or less extent, and inasmuch as
good horses can not be grown in a season
it is reasonable to look for better prices
from this one influence alone. But this
is not all. Horses such as Vermont
breeders were wont to place upon the
market at one time will always find
favor in the public eye, and the raising
of good horses is one of the features of
that diversified farming to which our
Vermont land is plainly best adapted.
- Burlington Free Press.
Ut is quite evident that the trouble in
the price of horses is the same as in
everything elsa scarcity of money.

A tired stomach is very much like a
sprained ankle. If you suffer from any
of the symptoms of dyspepsia, your
stomach is tired. 1t needs a crutch. We
must relieve it of all work for a time, or
until it Is restored to its natural strength.
To do this successfully, we must use "a
food which is already digested outside of
the body, and which will aid the diges-
ton of other foods that may be taken
with 1t. Such product is the Shaker
Digestive Cordial.
The Shakers have utilized the digestive
principles present in plants for the manu-
