MANS LEG REPLACED BY A DOG


when It has so grown II IL to be cut off
the dog entirely and the other end Of II
splioed onto the other side Of the gap In
Brandstedts tibia. The little dog is
then TO be sent about his business on
the three legs spared to him by man In
his beneticent nonchalance while Mr..
Brandstedt walks calmly away on the
full number Of legs which nature inten-
ed he should have-accidents or no
accidents!
THE PHYSICIANS STATEMENT.
DR. Francis p, Williams, one OF the
surgeons In charge Of this remarkable
case, recently made the following state
ment concerning the case:
In the course OF surgical practice Il
often occures that a portion OF a badly
broken bone dies, especially the frag-
mentfarthest from the nourlshlng artery.
When this occurs number Of methods
are In common practice from which the
surgeon selects In his attempt to re.
store the missing bone, such as the in
PRODUCTION az chips OF bone from which
the lime salts have been removed by
weak acids, Another method some
times attempted Is to transplant sec
lions of bone freshly removed from llv-
ing animals In the hope that union be-
tween such and the patients bone will
occur but such attmpts usually fail
IN. the severer cases, even I'm the hands
Of our greatest surgeons, because the
foreign bone dies before union occurs
With the injured and often infected
surrounding bone and flesh.
ITO make the matter clearer let II be
remembered that minute new blood
vessels must grow out from the end OF
the patients broken bone and deposit
cells, which In tlme-two or three weeks
change 10 new bone filing in the
breach left by removal Of the dead bone
In the case OF bone chips, when used as
described above they eerye as q Frame
work for the new blood vessels and bone
cells. In the case OF transplanted bone
the tiny new vessels must unite with
the severed ones Of the bone ira nspiant-
ed, 90 as 20 establish a nourIshing ci--
culatlon that shall give 1t life.

surgeon because It's presence would In.
terfere with the best use OF the larger
bone After holes had been drilled In
the bones TO be united, silver wires were
introduced and twisted lightly, which
established firmly an artificial union
between the leg OF the dog and that Of
the man.
The position selected for this sacri-
hcing dog Is an easy and natural one.
Inc animal lies Outstretched, facing the
patient, with fore legs and chin resting

COTTON CONDITIONS.

The consumption of wool per
capita in this country has fallen
from nine pounds to six pounds,
while the consumption of cotton
has risen to twenty five pounds.
Cotton has been substituted for
wool, and the change is still 60
ing on. The sleeps clothing
stands discredited, and in China
none of it is used in human attire.
The visible supply stands at
about that of recent years, and all
now. depends upon the crop of the
year and the opening of China SO
the cotton trade. The closing of
China has had very much to do
with the lessenel consumption,
the Stacking of spindles in the
mills and the recent decreases in
quotations. An open China would
brighten the situation wonderfully
for beyond doubt a vast quantity
of goods would be needed in thai
populous country.
The price of a bale has fallen
from the top point in January tc
the extent in New York of 1870
Stocks are not heavy, and the al
lied ministers are drifting towards
a final settlement and an Oper
China. This country, too, is pros
porous, and the domestic demand
will be heavy. Predictions are Of
little value, but this much can be
said without risk of exaggeration,
namely. if China is fully opened
to trade before September l a re-
turn to fve-cent cotton would be
impossible, even if the crop should
be a record breaker-even if q
twelve, millioa-bale crop could be
picked. When TIE case is consid-
cred in all its aspects the chances
are seen 10 favor higher prices,
and in no event to justify a return
to the low prices of two years ago.
