be largely taken by the smart short jack

At least twice year we like to thor
oughly overhaul the stable and all its
furniture. general house cleaning as
it were. writes L. w Lightly in The
National Stockman. We prefer rather
windy day and open mp all windows
and doors and completely sweep and
brush out all hooks and corners. Re
move everything that is movable. Clean
out manure. straw, hayseed. etc. and
flush the cutters completely. Now dis
infect the stable thoroughly. Sulphate
Of copper or chloride of lime is what we
generally use. though some of the COM
mercial disinfectants are sometimes
preferable Common whitewash or
quicklime is very good TO use for some
parts Of the stable If there is any sus-
picion that any disease is lurking in the
stable. such as abortion or any other,
this disinfection should be particularly
thorough. Close the stable quite tight
and burn sulphur or, still better. gen
crate chlorine gas by pouring hydro
chlOric acid or some chloride of lime.
This forms deadly &; s. and you want
TO use it with caution. but it will do
thorough work. All the managers or
troug6s should be secured with boiling
water. By this semiannual cleaning up
we have thus far escaped all the trou-
bles that often cause serious loss to many
dairymen. such as calf scours. abortion.
etc, and at the same time il helps to
produce the best and cleanest milk from
which to make first class butter.

If an old English writer be true in
his observations. the pheasant must be
a very simple bird. for he declares that
it puts its head in the ground and
thinks that all its body is then hidden
This is just what our old friend the os-
trich does in the African desert The
same author says that it was also cap
tured by another curious plan a pic
ture of the bird was painted ON cloth
and then placed in spot where it was
sure of being seen By and by silly

China claims to have originated mas
sage treatment. According to long time
Chinese ideas, life is entirely dependent
on "air currents. +" which are designat-
ed as the primary aura Of the organism.
So long, then, as the body is permeated
by the air current it is proof against
disease and the object of physical ex-
ercise is to circulate the air current.
To effect this the Chinese system is di-
vided into three periods, each period
occupying hundred days, the first
period commencing at the time of the

time of full moon farther set of in

place that the real physical exercises
are taken. Between the fifth and sixth

The DeveIopment I'D the SKIN.


By almost constant overcovering day
and night for successive generations the
SKIN has by degeneration adapted itself
to its reduced requirements. From birth
to senila death we are much overcov-
cred. That full and vigorously de
veloped skin is a desideratum will be
generally conceded. The tendency is for
ours to degenerate to tissue paper
consistency. The exquisite structure of
the skin at once indicates its impor-
lance as one of the organs of the body.
A homely showing of that functional
power which can be developed in the
skin is indicated by the story of the In
dian. Being almost naked and yet APP
parently quite comfortable in inclement
weather he was asked why he did not
seem to suffer and be made i'll by the
exposure. he replied white man S
face no pain no sick Indian all face.
By this excessive covering our periph
eral nerves are too intensely impressed
by caloric changes. our capillary blood
system too feebly and incompletely de-
veloped to battle most successfully with
heat, disease and traumatic impressions
Its muscular fat and connective tissue
substance are all too deficient and de
fective for our greatest comfort and
welfare. All its functional powers have
been reduced Yet seldom is heard a
cry to develop the skin. Philadelphia

The importance of IA knowledge of
the natural laws which govern the ac-
tons of our horses. says DR.. J. c. Cur
rier In Farm. Stock and Home. is APP
parent to every well Informed horse
man; but TO those who have not stud
led the matter carefully it may be well
to call attention TO the fact that the
piyotical point Of all forward and
backward movements of the horse is
the center Of the body-yiz. whatever
happens at the front of the horse i'm
pels him backward and at the back end
causes him to 20 forward.
When the halter is put on the colts
head for the first time and we pull at
1t, every one Is fully aware that the
colt will 90 backward; but we rarely
stop to consider why this is so. But
the colt feels t1at he has got his head
into some kind of trap, and he knows
but one way TO get 1t out. and that Is
to pull his head out Of the halter.
If he got his head fast In the fence
or anywhere else. be would go back
ward to get IT out and would struggle
even 10 tilt bttHhiA- VI HIS heSN II hc

foot over a bar or barbed wire fence.
he will go backward TO pull it out.
II he gets his hind foot fast. he In
variably goes forward TO pull 1t out.
Therefore the hitching of the balky
horse BY tie tail will oftener succeed
in pulling the load without fight than
any other kgowu process,

III is singular fact, said an cleo
trician Of this city that the human
body is capable of becoming more or
less Injured to shocks from live wires. l
suppose the average scientist would
scout the idea, but what say is borne
out by everyday experience. The en-
ployees of big electric light works for
instance, are continually receiving
shocks that would disable an ordinary
man, but are apparently none the worse
for the experience.
II remember some time ago a couple
of young fellows came in contact acct
dentally with live wire at manufac-
tory here in town. and both received
exactly the same current One of them
was helper around dynamo and had
met with mishaps of that sort before
He was knocked off his feet and mo-
mentarily stunned. but was all right in
less than two minutes The other man,
who was a stranger. fell over as if
struck by lightning, and it was fully
half an hour before he showed the least
signs of returning consciousness. He
was laid mp for several days and, oddly
enough. was much the more powerful
physically of the pair.
II have known several cases of prac
tically the same sort The motormen
on the street cars frequently get the
current as they call it. especially in
rainy weather. when wet wood becomes
conductor They tell me they don t
mind it much after the first few times -

While residing at Rome paid visit
to the lunatic asylum there. and among
the more remarkable patients one was
pointed out to me who had been saved
with much difficulty from inficting
death upon himself by voluntary star
walton in bed. under the impression that
he was defunct. declaring that dead
people never eat 1t was soon obvious
to all that the issue must be fatal when
the humane doctor bethought of the
following stratagem Half dozen Of
the attendants. dressed in white shrouds
and their faces and hands covered with
chalk, were marched in single file with
dead silence into room adjoining that
of the patient, where he observed them
through door purposely left open sit

nal passes through There are also side
curtains and a short middle one, sweep

following through hen the door is
opened to 1T the out This is the
most difficult part ca an, performance,
the flies being very loatl to leave their
bed and board as any che can find out
by trying to drive them off cow when
out of doors. This screen makes two
rooms, each ten feet in length one very
dark and the other lighted from above
through the trap. We used two cast off
screen doors to make sides and ends of
trap and covered with wire screen, and
it is probably larger than necessary.
but have found that no objection. 1t is
) feet long. feet wide and 3 feet high,
and an opening three feet long and a
foot wide lets the light down and the
flies up into the trap. Once in the trap
they rarely try to go back. but spend
their time trying to get out through the
top and III from one to two days are
starved to death.
On our first use of the trap we were
surprised to find many got out by fore
ing themselves through the screen. We
then covered it with light cheesecloth
and have lost none since Usually we
lead or drive the COW into the first
room, closing the door behind it. AS it
passes on into the dark room the brush
and curtains sweep off the flies, and
they follow the light into the trap.
Give few minutes then with both
doors closed to secure all of the flies,
but we have passed through several,
one at the heels CT the other. with good
results. After the first time it is little
trouble to get a sensible cow to go
through They seem to realize it is do
ing them good.
