Warts on Cows Tcats.

r. N Clark OF Clark county, Washing
ton. asks: what can do to rid a
cows teats of warts?"
DR.. Horne. noted veterinarian, says:
Touch each wart with nitric acid; change
this acid to butter OF antimony every
other day. Tie a piece of sponge or cot
ton batting tightly to the end Of a peNcil-
sized stick. Rub a little when applying.
Here Is another remedy: Smear the fin
gers with castor oil and draw the teats
through the fingers for a few weeks;
rub the udder with a little of the oil 80
that 1t will run down the teats. 1t is
said the warts vii, disappear without any
pain or sore such as is caused by burn
ing of the teats by any of the harsher
methods. This has been tried by many
persons. and they all report perfect sue
cess in removing the warts II the treat
ment Is persevered In long enough. Per-
haps castor oil IL no better than any
other grease. When / was a boy we used
to rub the warty teats with salt pork and
We thought II effected a cure, for the
warts usually disappeared In few weeks
II we kept on using the pork.wisconsin

WHAT GRATING Is DONE FOR.
A Variety of Uses Not Generally I'm
derstOOd.

Grating is employed for a variety Of
purposes, which may be divided under
the following heads:
First-To perpetuate most of the named
varieties of fruits and many varieties of
ornamental shrubs and trees 1t is sell
dom employed to propagate species, but
In the case of some sorts that are diffi-
cult and uncertain about growing from
seeds or cuttings 1t is so employed, as
with some OF the frs and spruces. which
under cultivation seldom produce germ
Unable seeds.
Second-It Is performed to reduce stat
ure as when pears are grated on ounce
or alamanchier, or on mountain ash: the
apple on the Paradise. which Is a dwarf
apple stock. or the plum on the sand
cherry.
Third-It Is done to adapt trees to di-
verse soils. as the grating OF the peach
OH plum for clayey soils; the plum on the
peach for light. gravely soils; pear on
mountain ash for chalky soils, as Is prac-
ticed In Sweden: peach on the almond in
some chalky districts of England
Fourth--To correct poor habit, Some va
rieties that are naturally crooked, sprawl
ing growers are grated on straight
stocks, as when the bushy, sprawling
New Tim r,am IA grated "a The cherry
or other vigorous grower. The crooked
Winter Nelis pear is grated on some
strong growing variety for the same rsa-
| son.
Fifth-To adapt 10 diverse climates. as
when the Wealthy apple and similar
