Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an infismed con.
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube gets in.
famed you have a rumbling sound OF
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-.
tirely closed deafness is the result. and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal con.
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever
nine cases out of ten are caused by Ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an infamed
condition of tie mucous surfaces.

A Wonderful Geological Freak.

Among me many wonde .i freaks in nature there can be none in the geo logical line that can possibly excel that known as "The Giants Head. ' It stands. or. rather. recllnes, against the face of the cllff at Point Pinos. In Monterey county, Cal. and all who have viewed the wonder declare 1t tc be the most colossal as well as the most marvellous freak In natural sculp ture In existence.
 All portions of the "head' except the back. which appears to be "bloeked into the metamorphic rocks against which it seems to be so naturally re- cllning. are as perfect as though fresh from the hands of some giant sculptor The chin. mouth. nose, eyes and brow are all perfect, as Is also the hair' which appears to be gracefully drawn back from the forehead.
 The ears are not so true to life" as the other features are. but even In this respect no stretch of the imagination ls required in order to sec tolerably perfect auricular appendages. The bold features. backward wave Of the hair. massive forehead, mustache, fine ly chlscled nostrils and deep set eyes are all reproduced on natural yet gi' gantic scale and with wonderful exact mesa.

The Typewriter and the Eye.

There Is the general opinion among ocullsts that the eye Is much relieved by the general introduction of type wf.::en matter. A recent medical work upon diseases Of the eye gives a great many proofs in substantlatlon of this opinion.
 The characters are so large on tho keys that there is no appreciable strain on the vision. and when dexterity Is at talned the eyes can scarcely be said ts be used at all. A vast strain Is taken on the eye by writing with the type writer Instead of the pen, but the ad' vantages of reading the typewritten matter are even more important from a medical point of view, and the strain upon the hands Is also slight.
 It is said that a person can work for eight consecutive hours, with slight h. terruptlons, without the hands being conscious of fatigue. In using the typewriter the additional labor of fo- cuslng the eyes calls the muscles into undue use. and the result is that many defects of vision which would moi probably be discovered under normal conditions are brought to the front Scientific American.

Pari. Ia France.

Paris has always been France. All
 the great movements of the country
 have been centered here, whether po- lltlcal, religious, sociSi, literary or ar tlstic. So that any attempt to trace the history of the city launches one imme- dlately Into the study of the nation, while an effort to master the history Of the French people sends one to Paris.
 One realizes this particularly when ne comes to study the lives of her great men and women. They may have been born in the south or east or north or west, but to rise to the first rank they were obliged to seek the capital. It wac there they sought instruction,

Club women who are expecting to
attend the sixth biennial of the gen
eral federation of =. women's clubs,
which meets in Los Angeles the first
week in May, are particularly inter-
ested in the fact that many railroads
east Of Chicago have practically de-
termined to give a round trip rate
from any given point for a one-way
fare; the round-trip rate between
Chicago and Los Angeles on each
transcontinental line has been fixed
at $50. Therefore, the exact amount
of railroad fare can be easily esti-
mated.
The time limit on these roundtrip
tickets-two months-will give visit
ors an opportunity for some sightsee-
ing after the biennial meetings are
over and one delightful excursion dur
ing biennial week is already ar
ranged.
This will be given May Z, 'compli-
nentary to all officers, delegates and
the program committee. This out
ing, requiring only the greater part OF
one day, will nevertheless afford a
unique opportunity for a comprehen-
stve glimpse of the southern country

Little Hints,


A black point d'esprit boa made ur
over white silk and edged with gold
braid Is new and smart
An Irish lace collar, covering the
shoulders, is an essential part of a
woman's wardrobe nowadays.
A novel notion is a corset cover
made Of wash ribbon Of delicate color
alternating with lace insertion.
-Imonos with yoke effect are as
comfortable as the looser ones and
more becoming to the average woman.
Parasols Of figured and novelty silk,
to wear with gowns Of the same ma
terial, are finished with a bow of the
silk at the handle.
Large stars OF narrow velvet ribbon
with long ends, finishing with tassels
of the same velvet, find a place on
many dressy lace bodices.
A popular article of jewelry is the
pear-shaped pearl, which is worn sus-
pended in short neck chain and an
pears In connection with every kind
of gown.
Some of the most beautiful outer
skirts for summer are of wash fabrics
trimmed with flounces of fine embroid-
cred muslin. They are pretty for use
with short waists.

Milk Yield OF SOwS.

The milk yield of sows might be
thought to be considerable, as it must
supply the food for sometimes very
large litters. That it is not large
should teach us that the amount of
milk needed for the sustenance of the
young of any animals is relatively
small. Man, when he tries to supply
artificially the place of nurse to farm
animals, almost always overfeeds. This
overfeeding is not infrequently the
sole cause Of the death of animals be-
ing brought up by hand. Nature has
fixed matters in such a way that over
feeding is practically out Of lne
question. AS to the amount of milk
yielded by sows we have not extensive
data. Four sows were tested at the
Wisconsin station and their milk
weighed at different periods and for
different lengths Of time. Number
one gave an average of 5.8 pounds
per day; number gave Al pounds per
day; number gave 5.4 pounds per
day and number gave SIS pounds per
day. The highest yield of milk on any
one day was 81 pounds by SOW number
one, twenty days after narrowing.

Siberian Butter.

The Siberian butter is looming up
as strong competitor with the butter
from all other lands. The railroads,
being controlled by the government,
carry the goods at such a low rate
that the butter is brought to tide
water on the Baltic at small cost,
Moreover, the Russian government
does not lose sight Of it there. Re-
Gently a conference was held in St.
Petersburg between the makers of but
ter and government officials that have
duties more or less touching the ship
ment OF butter. The secretary of
transportation reported that 920 re-
frlgerator cars for butter had been
provided and cold storage plants at all
stations likely to be used for consid-
erable shipments of butter. Arrange
ments were also entered into for the
shipping of the butter to England by
steamers not touching at Danish ports.
The Russians are evidently determined
that no more Siberian or Russian but
ter shall be shipped to England from
Denmark and labeled Danish butter.
Ihls Is wise step, by which an old
trick is made impossible of working.
Dairy schools are to be established. Il
is also urged that a central laboratory
be equipped for the purpose of analyz-
ing suspicious lots Of butter and pre-
venting their expectation. It is claimed
that Siberian butter badly adulterated
has appeared on the English market

Bulk in Swine Fool.

Swine are by nature omnivorous
feeders. They eat flesh, herbage, ce-
reals, roots and fruits. Their food in
their natural state has a good deal of
bulk. The bad results sometimes OBJ
tanned by feeders is due to forgetful-
ness Of this fact. The salvation of
pigs kept in confinement has been the
general impression that swill was pre-
eminently a hog feed. This has given
bulk to an otherwise condensed ra-
ton. The pig has to large extent
been the victim of a wrong system of
feeding. He has been too often con-
fined in small space and fed a con-
densed ration. AS a result disease
and death have cut short the profits Of
the pig raisers. The feeding Of a ra-
ton Of cereals Is not in keeping with
the natural requirements of the porcine
money-maker. It is not a difficult mat
ter for the swine feeder to increase
greatly the bulk of food fed. Silage,
roots and vegetables can be fed in the
winter. If the farmer have not these.
he can feed clover hay. This should
be cut in a feed-cutter and soaked by
pouring boiling water over it. To this
may be added the meal or other con-
centrate that is to be fed.

E. A. Riehl, Southern Illinois: So
tar as can be seen now all fruits ex-
cept peaches are in good condition and
may give good crop, if favorable
conditions are maintained throughout
the season.

will have over 10000 barrels of apples

Dis 7osal OF Inferior Fruits.


From Farmers Review: In reply
to yours will say that it would be i'm
possible to give you any idea in the
way of figures as to what extent the
different varieties of fruit in Illinois,
Indiana and Michigan are disposed OF
in the dried form, but as a guess, we
should say that perhaps 25 per cent of
the green fruits are either dried or
canned. The largest quantity Of dried
fruit In the way of evaporated rasp-
berries and apples comes from New
York state. There are also a good
many berries and apples evaporated in
Michigan, and good many apples
evaporated and sun dried in Indiana
and Illinois. The fruit that is dried
and canned is not first quality, it being
usually marketed green, and the Sec
ond and third quality are canned and
dried. This refers to apples more than
berries, as berries, that is Strawberries,
raspberries and blackberries must be
Of good quality to go into the can, al
though of course, they are not selected
as closely as they would be if they
were put on the market in the green
state, and take for instance, apples,
If they could not dry and can this
quality of apples referred to above,
they would probably have to throw
them away, as they could not be put
on the market green.-Miller & Davis

with soap and clean water, and wipe
them with clean towel; to require the
mixers to wash their hands and heads,
TO brush and trim their nails, to wear
clean clothes, to put on white overalls
and caps at the time of milking, to
construct the floor of milking yard and
sned OF asphalt, and to wash or sweep
1t after each milking, and to frequent
iy tar and limewash both it and the
woodwork OF the shed; also to disin-
fect thf shed occasionally with chlori-
mated lime. 1t has also been advised
not tc feed the cows IT, the milking
shed. All these are undoubtedly i'm
portant steps. and if they could be car
r1ed into practice would result in great
improvement in dairy work. But how
tar are they practicable? Farmers who
have heard these recommendations
nave expressed the opinion that if
dairying is to require all this they had
better give up dairying at once" We
DO not believe that any device can
take the place Of cleanliness in the
dairy; and, moreover, a device of this
kind will be very difficult to keep

Immature Stock as Breeder..

1t is surprising to what extent i'm
mature stock is used for breeders, even
among poultry fanciers. A cockerel
less than year old is mated with
pullets, and this is kept up for genera
tions. The results can hardly fail to
be disastrous, at least so far as hardi-
ness Is concerned. When hardness
departs or is bred out the door is open
to many evils. Breeders that have care
fully looked into the matter believe
that the resulting fowls lay eggs in
fertile or with a germ weak in fertil-
ity. Moreover the tendency is to de-
velop strain of fowls that will have
little of the force of matured birds.
The more advanced breeders are using
mature stock. What about the man
that buys eggs of the men that breed
from immature stock? Are they get
ting fair return for the money they
expend? It would be well for egg
buyers to find out whether the eggs
they are to purchase this spring are
from immature birds or not.
