Like the plague-stricken Egyptians
a cry OF distress has gone out from

woe clings to every hearthstone.

slightest cough or cold and finishes
its fendish work in heart disease and
consumption.
No tissue, function, or organ OF the
body escapes its ravages; muscles
wither, nerves shatter. and secretions
dry up under it's blighting presence.
So stubborn and difficult Of cure is
this disease that to invent a remedy
to cure chronic catarrh has been the
ambition of the greatest minds in all
ages. Is it therefore any wonder that
the vast multitude Of people who have
been cured Of chronic catarrh by Pc
runa are so lavish in their praise Of
this remedy? That the discovery OF
Peruna has made the cure of catarrh
a practical certainty is not only the
testimony of the people. but many
medical men declare it to be true.

rections for use. A complete guide

DairyIng In California.

In the alfalfa districts one hears
incredible reports concerning the pro-
ductiyeness of the soil. Enormous
crops are common, and five or six cut
tings a year are not unusual. Irriga-
ton is practiced to a considerable ex-
tent. Here, too, grain is seldom used.
When cows are grazing they are usu-
ally given a small amount of hay at
night, and little bran is occasionally
fed. One dairyman, who paid SITS an
acre for his forty-acre ranch, reports
that he receives about 500 per month
from the creamery for the milk of his
thirty cows. He uses no grain, pas
lures eight months, and feeds hay four
months each year. His herd consists
OF ordinary grades and fairly repre-
sents many others which have been
built up within short time from stock
which is better for beef production
than for the dairy.
II Is stated on good authority that
a dairyman in Yolo county fed ninety
mich cows in corral from Marcn 10
to July Is, 1897. on alfalfa cut from
thirty-two acres. No other feed was
used. The cows gave satisfactory re-
suits In milk yield and were in bet
ter condition at the close OF the period
than at the beginning. The custom OF
keeping cattle out OF doors Is made
possible by the prevailing mild eli
mate. On many ranches the animals
never so under roof to be MIXED or
for any other purpose.
These facts make it evident that the
California dairymen have good cause
to boast of their ability to produce
milk cheaply. AS might be expected.
they have much room for improve
ment. They admit that In many ways
their methods are extravagant and not
a few OF them are leading in move
ments toward economy. The more
careful selection of cows for the dairy
and especially the selection Of good
stick for breeding is line OF i'm
proVement which would show splendid
results.

ment OF agriculture, it is enabled to
include the tuberculin diagnosis in
tbs offer, under the following condi-
tons:
Whenever evidence satisfactory to
the experiment station is furnished
that tuberculosis probably exists in a
herd of five or more cattle within the
state, the station will test the entire
herd with tuberculin, such test to be
free of all cost to the herd owner ex-
cept the board of the stations agent
while making the test (about two
days for every herd of 20 animals or
less) and his transportation to and
from the nearest railway station. In
some cases 1t may be possible to in
clude two or more small herds, or
several single animals, in a single test,
by having these animals so placed to-
gether that they may be easily tested.
In the case OF the state and county
benevolent institutions, children's
homes especially. the station offers to
make an annual tuberculin test OF
their herds without requiring any evil
dence OF the appearance of tubercu-
losis as a prerequisite to such a test.
the only requirement being the board
and transportation OF the stations
agent, as above mentioned.
When animals are found which
show external evidences OF the disease
the owner will be advised to destroy
them at once, as such animals are
centers of infection to those around
them and thus are sources of increas-
ing loss. In the case of apparently
healthy animals which react under the
tuberculin test, the advice of the sta
ton will be that they be slaughtered
for beef under governmental inspec-
ton, first fattening them for a few
months II necessary. Experience has
shown that fat and apparently healthy
animals are occasionally found, on
slaughter, to be in advanced stages of
tuberculosis; but that many Of the ami
mails which react to the tuberculin
test when first made In a tuberculous
herd. will be found to be in the incipi-
ent stages OF the disease only, and
these may be safely used for food If
slaughtered under proper inspection,
whereas If permitted to remain in the
herd they will soon become too far
diseased to be thus used and will.
moreover, become distributors of the
infection.

never before have they been deluged
with so many offers to sell. Very few
contracts have been closed, however,

and the longer they wait the less
money will they have to pay. They
reason this way: Good sales years

best price in years, and every feeder
made money. The year before. he lost

proposes to keep It, While this

good reason to think there will be

This volume Is going to be created

in the west and northwest, and the
impossibility OF the rangemen to carry

there will be plenty Of grain and grass
