Kidney Troubles.

The kidneys cleanse the blood and

An Inventors Remarkable Luck.

Speaking of Bells telephone, it is
not generally known that he came
near losing all his English patent rights
and would have done so, but for most
remarkable piece of luck. AT the time
of the telephones invention Lord Kel-
win was in this country and ne took
back with him to Scotland one of the
crude instruments which Bell had
made, intending to exhibit it to his
college classes as an American curl
osity. At that time the transmitter
had spiral spring on the upper side.
and while the model was knocking
its journey across the ocean this spring
among the scientists baggae in it's
journey across the ocean this spring
somehow got bent upward. When
Lord Kelvin came to give the prom
ised exhibition the thing would not
work, because the spring was bent up
too much. 1t is almost impossible to
believe, but it is nevertheless fact,
that it never occurred to the giant in
tellect of this great scientist to press
that spring down again and he had to
apologize to his audience for the fail
ure of the much advertised expert
ment. A publication previous to ap-
plication for a patent is n bar in Eng
land, and when the great trial to settle
the validity of the Bell patents came
up over there it was sought to prove
that there had been no publication in
this lecture because the model would
rot work. Had Lord Kelvin pressed
down that little spring and shown
those Scotch laddies how the telephone
worked it would have cost the Bell
company many millions of dollars and
made telephones very cheap in Eng
land.-New York Sun.

pi,c,plip. For Children.

A Judicial decision which has just
been rendered at the Court iuSMunich
shows that corporal punishment is still
regarded in Germany as an indispen-
sable factor Of education. "A school
teacher" says the Judge, "has the right
to inflict corporal punishment as well
on the pupils of his own class as on
those of other classes. AS pupils are
amenable to scholastic jurisdiction
even after the school hours are over,
they may be punished by the teacher
even outside Of the school. A clergy
man who is giving religious instruc-
ton has the same right in this respect
as other teachers. Furthermore, the
infliction of such punishment cannot
be made the basis of legal action un-
less 1t can be shown that the pupil has
been really and seriously injured. Such
a serious injury would be a wound en-
dangering health or life. Bruises and
ordinary abrasions, however, are not
to be considered as serious wounds,
since marks of the kind are apt to
appear whenever punishment is ad-
ministered."

The Farmers Dog.

A good dog is of most inestimable
calue to the farmer, but useless cur

but comparatively few dogs in the
country that are worth their keep
Nearly every farmer owns dog, some
times three or four; but few are in any
Nay trained to be useful. Dogs are in
.elligent creatures and will often pick
lp enough of their legitimate work
about the farm to be useful, but the
average cur rarely does. In the dog.
as in all other animals, blood tells. The
popular idea seems to be that dog is
n dog, and more or less of a nuisance.
To pay good price for pup would
,all down the scorn of the neighbor-
mood. And if the dog grew to be
big, fine-looking fellow. the chances
are that he would be poisoned by some
one who cannot realize that the dog
is the noblest of animals. A neighbor-
hood is certainly better off for being
rid of n cur. but to wilfu1ly murder
fine. good-tempered animal simply be-
cause he is large and strong is nothing
less than criminal. In our home town
IN the past two years there have been
no less than half dozen Newfound
land, st. Bernard and mastiff dogs
poisoned. Not one of them was vicious
or ill-natured, and all were very fond
of children. No one can keep a large
dog in the town, yet the streets are
full of mongrels and ours at all hours
of the day and night. 1t is but rarely
that these animals meet an untimely
end.--The Epitomist.

Profitable Uses of skim MILK.

When the city milk dealers are pay
ing such starvation rates for milk, and
selling it to customers at prices two
or three times as much as they have
to pay the producers for it. the farmers
can put the products of their dairy to
some better uses than enriching the
city milkman. 1t is all right for those
owning dairy farms near the markets
to talk of working up private custom
ers and Of establishing milk routes
for themselves. The farmer and dairy
man who lives far away from the city
must forever be at the mercy of the
distributing agents in the city unless
he can control the use of his products
so that the sellers and retailers OF 1t
must solicit his patronage.
There are many ways to use milk
with more profit than selling at two
and three cents quart. There is
nutritive value in skim milk for iced
ing that should at once appeal to every
dairyman. We first have the chance
to skim off the cream and convert It
into butter. That is worth something,
and it will bring fair prices in any
market. Let that. however, be me
by product not the main object of the
work. Feeding the skim milk to con-
vert it into money is what we are ann
ing at. Suppose now We raise Il Grove
Of hogs sufficient 70 consume dll the
skim milk produced in the dairy, ana
then add few colonies of chickens.
Here we have two distinct sources or
consumption. The pigs will thrive and
fatten on skim milk when fed properly
with other food in a way that Will pay
for all the trouble and expense OF
breeding them. This sort of breeding
does not contemplate swill. and sour
ut that No hogs will do their best on
sour swill. and no one should expect it
of them in these enlightened days. But
if you want to make good sweet pork,
pork that is not all fat, but solid ana
firm, with lines of lean streaked in
it. raise your drove of hogs on clover.
and feed them sweet skim milk ana
some corn meal. Let the milk be led
as liquid and also mixed up with the
corn. The clover will supply them
with one class of food material. and
the milk and corn will add fat and
weight so fast that the pigs will pay
well on the investment. Skim milk
fed to pigs in connection with other
foods can be made to return profit OF
80 to 40 cents per 100 pounds. This Is
far better than shipping the whole
milk to a glutted market. In connec-
tion with the butter profits, the dairy
should thus he made more profitable
than when run largely for the benefit
of the city milk dealer-C. 2. Raynor,
in American Cultivator.

But as locations are different, all can

whitewasl, and Paint on the Farm.

From beautifying standpoint moth
ing eXcels fresh coat of paint on
dwellings, buggies, wagons and all
other farm implements; along with n
liberal use of whitewash on all the
outbuildings, fences. gates and shade
trees. A beautiful home is potent
factor in begetting cheerfulness and n
love for farm life. The many compli-
mentary remarks from visitors and
passersby concerning the neatness and
convenicnces of the home surround
ings will add contentment to remain
on the farm and not he wanting to re-
move to town where we would be
cramped for want of room and often
for things to eat that could and would
be had on the farm.
From hygienic point of view for
man. beast and fowl, Il liberal use of
paint and whtewash doubly pays for
all cost. Remember. that paint is n
great preserver of dwellings and farm
implements that arc exposed to wealth

Short and Useful Pointera.

Apple trees should have thorough
culture.
Winter apples are generally the prof
table ones.
Don't cultivate corn SO deep that you
cut the roots.
Select a cool place when setting
hens late in the season.
Charcoal made from corn cobs will
be appreciated by the hogs.
You can't make any mistake by add
ing soy beans to the pig ration.
Overlooking, especially with some
foods, will result in ruined udders.
Make it point to introduce fresh
blood into your stock every season.
Farmers do not pay sufficient atten-
tion to the different methods of culture.
Variety of production seems to be
the best plan to secure good prices for
farm produce.
The farm where sheep-growing is
made a success always shows an i'm
provement year by year.
The hens roosting on wagon axles
over night show that the head of the
farm uses but little Judgment
Every farm should have at least suf-
ficient trees to furnish good supply
Of fruit for the farmers family
The farmer needs plenty of muscle,
but he also needs q lot of brains to
show him what his muscles should do.
Some claim that filth is not the cause
of hog cholera, but in spite of this, we
all know that it furnishes q prolific
field for its growth.
The principal requirements of a
human being are something to eat and
something to wear BY this you can
readily see the value of sheep.
The man who keeps his COW on pas
ture alone from May until October,
thinks that his COW is paying too big
profit, and wants her to cut it down.
Care should be taken in bringing
young steers up to their full feed. 1t
should be done gradually. Each day
give them just about what they Will
eat.
y farmyard without at least three or
four shades trees is very unsatsfac-
tory, and if the shade is secured from
some sort Of fruit tree, why SO much
the better.

Another reason why paint and white
wash should be literally used on all
farm buildings and surroundings:
Value many times the cost is added to
the farm, so If one should conclude to
be forced to sell, he would be rewarded
for his outlay.
TO have that pride and energy that
will keep all buildings and farm u,en-

whitewash will insure credit at the

would be equivalent to money In the
