that the friends of education felt
grieved at the course " the enemies Of
education were taking, as tAough there
was a considerable number of Legislators,

ignorance to education for themselves
and their children. Hypocrisy knowingly

also be attended to where abortion has
been troublesome We also find that
in many cows that fail to breed the
mouth OF the womb has become closed
by an incrustation which it is difficult
to remove by the injections mentioned,
and where this is found to be the
case the os uteri should be carefully
opened by working the fingers In
wards in shape of cone. after which
1t is possible to introduce a dilator,
which, II allowed to remain, will rem
der the new condition permanent and
at the same time allow a discharge to
come away from the womb, which Is
a common result of this operation, SO
that the womb may then be washed
out with beneficial results. In other
cases there is an acid discharge from
the womb and vagina during heat
which has the power Of rendering the
act Of breeding ineffective and it has
been found that this may be corrected
by the injection of an alkaline solu-
ton, just before breeding. A solution
of one tablespoonful Of bicarbonate of
soda in quart of water will be found
effective and 1t should be injected into
the vagina of all shy breeding animals
half an hour before population. The
solution should be milk-warm when
injected. The animal after service
should be placed in a perfectly quiet
box stall away from the sight and
sound Of other cattle and should re-
main there until all excitement has
