Use Plenty of. Water.

1t is reputed saying of DR.. Austin
Flint, ST., "Plenty of water, plenty of
water, outside and in, for health" Quite
in contrast with the old method, water in
its various uses is becoming familiar
cure all Ut must be confessed human
beings are much like flock of sheep, who
blindly follow the leader over the wall, or
whithersoever he may take them.) How
ever, there is doubtless much to be said
in favor of water drinking and bathing,
one of the most popular uses being that of
drinking a certain amount at stated times
per day, either hot water, cold water, or
mineral water of some particular brand.
Most authorities agree that the ma ority
of people drink too little water for the
needs of the system, while some physi-
clans of high repute insist also that it is
not the temperature of the brand, but the
pure water alone that is beneficial. At
any rate, we have all seen wonderful cures
resulting from the regular and persistent
use of water. l recall a young girl,
slender, pale, delicate, with little appe-
tite for food, and very little interest in life,
whose days were heavy and spiritless, and
whose nights were unrestful, who had
exhausted the value of many different
patent medicines in her effort to restore
her system TO normal condition. She
was induced by her physician to try pure
water as remedial agent. ''Do not be dis
couraged,' said he, ''if for month you
do not feel the particular benefit, and
am sure, if you persist in it according to
my directions, you will find relief. Dis
card all drugs, and directly after each
meal drink, rather slowly, two glasses of
pure, cold-not ice-water, and before 60
ing to bed the same amount. 1t may be
difficult at first to swallow the whole
quantity, but keep at it and you will
finally do it" Directions We're persever-
ipgly followed, and the result was certain
tanly wonderful. For some weeks there
was hardly a perceptiole improvement,
but in five or six months a change SO
marked had been effected that one could
hardly recognize the frail girl of the half
year previous in the rosy, plump, energet-
ic, perfectly well and happy girl who had
50 courageously taken this simple cure.

Live stock Points.

Stagnant water, filthy pens and sur
roundings often cause intestinal worms
in hogs. Hog lots and pens may he
cleaned when this disease appears among
the animals by scraping out the drop
pings thoroughly and sprinkling the
quarters all over with dry air slaked
lime. This should be done every day.
Intestinal worms readily spread from
one hog to another.
Nearly $4,000 horses were shipped
from this country to Europe last year.
They sold at an average price slightly
above 1922 apiece. Great Britain took
the largest number of any one country,
the count being 90, coo
When an animal cannot wag or shake
the tail, and when that useful appendage
hangs limp and immovable as a string,
the chances are that it has been broken
by some accident or in fight. The tail

although it will not be likely to die.

There is no question in my mind but
that tuberculosis is caused. in great
part, by the too close confinement of our
cattle in i'll ventilated stables or stables
that are not ventilated at all.
Tuberculosis was never rampant
among our dairy cattle until the writers
for dairy papers advised all dairymen
to keep their COWS in warm stables to
enable them to get few more pounds
in the milk pail, and for the sake of a
little more cash from the old COW they
have put her in foul, shrinking hole, an
excuse for stable, and then curse their
luck when the inspector comes around
and condemns her.

NOT FOR EVERYTHING.

Bot if you have kidney, liver or bladder
trouble you will find Swamp Root just the
remedy you need. People are not apt to
get anxious about their health soon enough
II you are not quite well or half sick
have you ever thought that your kidneys
may be the cause OF your sickness?
1t is easy to tell by setting aside your
urine for twenty four hours sediment OF
settling indicates an unhealthy condition
of the kidneys. When urine stains linen
it is evidence of kidney trouble. Too fire..
quent desire to urinate, scanty supply, pain
or dull ache in the back is also convincing
proof that the kidneys and bladder need
doctoring.
There is satisfaction in knowing that the
great remedy DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root
fulfils every wish in relieving weak or dis
eased kidneys and all forms of bladder
and urinary troubles Not only does
Swamp Root give new life and activity tC
the kidneys-the cause of trouble. but
by treating the kidneys it acts as tonic
for the entire constitution. If you need 9
medicine you should have the best. SOLD

The sorghum cane is an exceedingly
valuable plant for both green and dry
fodder in that portion of the United
States ranging from parts of Texas up
into Kansas, and even farther north
where there is not quite enough rainfall
for Indian corn. In that region sorghum
is generally grown by seeding broadcast,
in which case it comes up like coarse,
rank grass and is cut and cured like
hay. If ground is fairly free from weeds,
sorghum can be sown broadcast almost
anywhere that corn grows and will give
very fair crop. sometimes an immense
one. Generally, however, in the north
ern states it is sown in drills and is cul-
tivated just as corn is. Sorghum plants
are much smaller than corn plants, and
SO the weeds make more trouble than
with corn. It is weeds probably that
keep this plant from becoming more
common with stockmen here at the
north. Sorghum makes the best of hay
for horses, the leaves being nutritious
and free from dust. 1t is equally valua-
BILE for dairy cows and other stock when
well cured The stalks often keep their
juices sweet into winter time and are
then highly relished by stock AS they
contain much sugar it is possible tc
oyerfeed with them, but careful feeder
will not encounter this trouble Sor.
| ghum can be sown in small way either
broadcast or in drills. Professor Henry

VENTILATION
Letting Fresh Air Into and Foul Air Out
of Cow Stables.

Letting Fresh Air Into and Foul Air Out
of Cow Stables.
We never remember to have seen a
scheme for thoroughly airing COW sta
bles that was quite SO satisfactory and
at the same time SO simple as the one
described as follows by iN4nk B. Tracy
in Hoard's Dairyman: The inclosed cut
is self explanatory. The object of hav-
ing the ceiling over the cattle on slant
toward the opening is to quicken the
motion of the hot and foul air, thus
giving much better and more rapid cir
oulation, and the greater the slant the
more rapid the circulation. The size of
the opening over cattle is regulated ac-
cording to number of cattle and dimen-
sions of stable.
wish to emphasize one thing espe-
cially-the space between ceiling and
roof shall be almost as great as between
floor and ceiling. There should be no
ventilators in top of roof. The fresh air
should come in from the sides or ends.
There should be enough openings to adj
NIT sufficient fresh air to sweeten and
purify the hot, foul air arising from the
stables beneath. otherwise it will con-
geal and your roof will always be damp
and frosty in cold weather.
One can't make mistake in having
too much fresh air in the space between

The subearth Duct.

AT the East Ontario Dairymen IS con-
vention P. H. Caspar of Nicholson, Hugo
G. .Alvez of Jacksonville and W. P. Ham
of ColesvilIe testified to the great adj
vantages of the subearth duct in connec-
tion with the curing ROOM By the aid
Of this they had maintained a fairly
uniform temperature of so to So de-
grees, though in single cases it had run
up to ~ degrees, The relative moisture
was from 80 to 90 per cent, and yet
they had not been bothered much with
mold Instructor Aderhold mentioned a
case where the duct had been made with
the clay exposed and where mold had
nearly discouraged him. but when the
room was cleaned and painted there
was no more trouble. The ducts are as
q rule built as follows: A ditch to IL
feet deep, feet wide and 100 feet long
is dug. Into this are laid five or more
rows of six inch tiles At each end a
brick chimney is built, one opening into
the curing room and one reaching foot
or so above the ground. On the latter is
placed wooden stack As or 80 feet
high, provided with galvanized iron
wind cowl, with weather vane, which
keeps the mouth Of the cowl against the
wind. This forces the air down, cooling
it in passing through the tiles. A venti-
latoT in the roof Of the room provides
Cor circulation Of the air. The cost va
sies from $3.50 to $500.

PATENT APPLICATIONS.


The applications for patents filed av-
erage about 1875 day. There are 30
principal examiners, with perhaps 200
assistants. Every examiner and every
assistant examiner has his own special
ty. Let US take the case, say, of a poor
inventor living in Oregon. He makes a
valuable invention and desires to OBJ
tain a patent. He sends his application
with $15 to the commissioner of pat
ents. 1t is referred to the examiner hay
ing charge of that peculiar class of in
ventions. 1t is his duty to reject it if
anything can be found on which to base
a rejection Nearly 800, 900 patents
have been granted in the United States,
and probably more than 1000, 600 i'll
the rest of the world. If any of these
anticipate the invention, the examiner
must reject the application. 1t is not
necessary that exactly the same thing
should have existed before, for if any
thing substantially similar can be found
the applicant must go to the wall But,
more than this, if anything similar has
been described in any printed publica-
tion, in any language, anywhere in the
world, or if without being patented OF
described in print it has been used any
where in the United States, the exam
liner should reject.
The rub comes all the time upon the
degree of similarity which will consti-
tute an anticipation of the invention.
A tremendous responsibility, it will be
seen, is thus thrown upon the examiner.
He wants to be safe. 1t is both his
pride and his duty not to allow patent
to go out that ought to have been re-
jected. The consequence is that great
many examiners reject almost every
thing on the first examination. No mat
ter how broadly new the invention may
be, something can always be found that
is akin to it. The nearest thing that can
be found is used as basis for rejection.
