October Mt the Pan-American.

Less than 80 days remain before the gates
of the Pan-American Exposition are closed
forever. During the crisp, cool days of DC.
tober Buffalo is at her best, and those who
have delayed their visit until now will have
the most delightful weather of the year il
which to enjoy the wonders of the Rainbow
City.
In planning your trip you will probably
want to go east of Buffalo, and it will be
well to keep in mind how pleasantly this
may be done over the picturesque Lack
awanna Railroad.
The same low rates are in force over the
Lackawanna Railroad as during midsum-
mer. At this season a daylight ride over
the Lackawanna System is journey long
to be remembered. Through the Delaware
Water Gap and over the Blue Ridge ranges
the woods are radiant in their autumnal
coloring while the agricultural region of
western New York is mellowed by the won
derfully rich tones of the fall harvest time
Six solid vestibuled trains are run daily
between New York and Buffalo. with daily
through service between New York and Chi
cago and New York and st. Louis Observa-
ton cars, dining cars and Pullman sleeping
cars offer every comfort for the trip. A
beautiful guide, profusely illustrated tell
ing about the Exposition and its features
will be sent on receipt of two cents in post
age stamps. Write for one to T. W. Lee

EFFICACIOUS REMEDY.
The Schmidt Treatment for Milk
Fever Has Been Tested with
Success in Denmark,

The Schmidt treatment for milk fe-
yer in cattle has resulted in a remark
able number of recoveries, reports
from 107 veterinarians showing sc
per cent. DR.. Schmidt, of Denmark,
assumes the disease to be due to the
elaboration of toxin in the udder.
The treatment is simple, within the
reach of all dairymen.
Dissolve 100 grains iodide of potash
in one quart of water, which has been
boiled, and allowed to cool to about the
temperature of the body. Introduce a
funnel and pipette into the ends of
rubber tube and place in bucket OF
antiseptic fluid. Milk the udder dry;
then place under the COW piece of oil
cloth about a yard square, so that the
udder will be about the middle of the
cloth. Wash the udder and teats thor
oughly with CASTLE soap and warm
water, rinsing carefully with antisep.
tic fluid. Insert the pipette into the
end of teat and fill the funnel with
iodide of potash solution. By pass.
ing successfully from one teat to an.
other distribute the solution equally

body and massage thoroughly in or.

out. Eight or ten hours after the in.
lection, or when recovery is assured
the udder should be carefully MIXED
out and then bathed with warm wa.
ter, about 16o degrees F. A second
injection is rarely necessary, but if so,
it should be done at the end of six
or eight hours. If there should be
tendency toward hardness of the I'D.

of warm water should be applied every

TRIBUTE TO THE cow.
POeticaI Live stock AuctiOneer Cn1Is
Her Gods Greatest Animal Gift
to Humanity.

Col. Woods, the Ohio live stock auc-
tioneer, grew eloquent in his introduce
tory speech at a recent Shorthorn
sale. He paid glowing tribute to the
COW as follows:
Grand and noble brute! OF all
Gods animal gifts to man, she is the
greatest. To her we owe the most.
Examine into all the different rami-
fications and channels of commerce
into which she enters, and note the re-
suit should size be blotted out. Sun
day stiffness would then pervade the
great stock yard industries of our
large cities and grass would grow in
the streets. Seventy-five per cent. of
the great freight trains that pillow the
continent from ocean to ocean would
sidetraek, for there would be nothing
for them to do. Fully so per cent. of
the laborers of America would draw no
pay on Saturday night, and our tables
would be bare of the greatest luXu-
ries with which they are loaded. The
great western plains that she has
made to blossom, financially, like the
whence they came, and millions of
prosperous homes would be destroyed.
None other like the COW. There is
not thing from nose to tail but what
is utilized for man. We use her horns
to comb our hair; her hair keeps the
plaster on our walls; her skin is on all
our feet and our horses backs; her

makes soup; she gives our milk, our
cream, our cheese, our butter, and her
flesh is the great meat of all nations.
Her blood is used to make our sugar
white; her bones when ground make
the greatest fertilizer; her paunch she
herself has put through the first chem
zeal process for the manufacture of
the best white board paper, and it has
been discovered that that paper is the
most lasting material for the manufac-
ture of false teeth. No other animal
works for man both day and night. By
day she gathers the food and when
We are asleep at night she brings it
back to rechew and manufacture into
all the things of which l speak. She
has gone with the man from Plym-
outh Rock to the setting sun; it was
her sons that broke the first sod in
the settlers clearing; it was her sons
that drew the prairie schooner for the
sturdy pioneers, as inch by inch they
fought to prove that Westward the
star of empire takes its way and the
old cow grazed along behind; and when
the days march was done she came and
gave the milk to fill the mothers
breast to feed the sucking babe that
was, perchance, to become the future
ruler of his country"

bark, which sometimes has fattened
and dried appearance. EXuding sap
and the presence of sawduSt-like cast
ings give the clew to their where
abouts. Whenever such indications
are seen, the insects should be dug out
with a knife or otherSharp-pointed in
strument. Those which have bored
deeply into the wood may be reached
by sharp, stiff wire thrust into the
hole. They can also be destroyed by
cutting away the bark at the upper
end of the chamber and pouring scald-
ing water into the opening so that it
will soak through the castings.
Among the preventive remedies, al
kaline washes or solutions are prob
ably the most useful. Soft soap made
to the consistency of thick paint by
the addition of a strong solution of
washing soda in water, is a good for
mula for application. 1t should be
painted over the bark, especially about
the base of the trees and upward to the
main branches. If applied during the
morning of a warm day, it will dry in
a few hours, forming a tenacious coat
ing, not easily dissolved by rain.
Whale oil soap can be substituted for
the soft soap if desirable. A small
quantity of gas tar added to the so
luton will also assist in repelling the
insect and will not injure the trea-

OUR FRUIT IN DEMAND.
Europeans Want American Dried
Prunes, Peaches and ApricOts
and Green Apples.

"The prospect for an unprecedented
export of American dried prunes, april
cots, peaches and pears, as well as
evaporated apples and raspberries to
Germany the autumn and winter of
'01 is exceedingly bright, provided
the crop in the United States is suffi-
GENTLY plentiful to furnish large sup
ply at reasonable prices" Thus writes
Consul General Frank H. Mason at
Berlin. This seems to be the general
opinion of those who are in position
to study the tendencies. The Paris eX-
position has done much to open the
eyes of Europeans to the fact that
America is a great fruit producing
country and a great increase in the de-
mand for our fruits is confidently eX-
pected. Many American merchants,
combining business with pleasure,
have visited the Paris exposition and
taken the opportunity thus offered to
see personally many of the dealers in
the principal German cities and offer
their products to them.
In Berlin, a wholesale dealer in
fruits has informed the consulate that
his customers, largely grocers and
provision dealers in other cities and
towns, have been giving larger orders
than ever before for American fruits.
The excellent flavor of the American
products, both fresh and dried, to-
gether with the reasonable prices,
makes whatever competition there is
largely in our favor.
California fruits are making their way
into Siberia. Canned goods are in great
favor. But excessive freight rates, de-
lays in forwarding and bad packing
are great hindrances to the develop
ment of trade in that country. Prop
erly grading and packing fruit is one
of the most important questions coz
nected with the foreign fruit trade.
Information from commercial agents
indicates that the trade is very seri-
ously injured by improper packing.
This is equally true of fruit for do
nestle markets, and accounts for
many of the disappointments in fruit
growing. The growers do not intend
to be dishonest in their grading, but
their standards are not high when
| compared with the standards required
by critical market Oftentimes when
that market is glutted, the shippers
ideal is far below that of the market.
The experience of the past ought to be
guide for the future. The only way
the demand for American fruits can
be upheld and increased in foreign
markets is for the packers and ship.

up a mail box at the roadside, as
shown in the illustration. One end
of the box is left open to receive
the mail. The round disc is a signal
to denote there is mail in the box;
it is held in it's upright position by
the weight attached to the lower end
of the handle. Whoever brings the
mall puts it in the box and drops
the weight which raises the signal,
which can be seen from the house.
When we get the mail out the
weight is hung up on a nail driven
IN the side of the box near the bot
tom edge. This allows the signal to
drop down by the side of the box as
shown by dotted lines. Our box is
made of roofing tin, except the bot
tom and end, which are wood. The
signal should be painted different
color from that of the box to render
it more easily seen.-E. E. Higgins,

chain three or four feet long. The
chain ends in a ring through which is
run a rod about three feet long. There
are two rods, one on each side of the
stall; they end in a bend of about two
inches to each end, which allows it to
stand parallel with and two inches or
so from the side of the stall. BY this
means the chains, that are fastened to
the collar, slide up and down very
easily. as the cows stand or lie, and
they are almost as easy as though they
were not fastened at all, and there is

A new test has been elaborated
for determining the presence of
formalin in milk. Phenylhydrazin
and ten per cent. solution of soda
is added to a small protion of the
diluted milk. In the presence even
of two drops of formaldehyde to 100
cubic centimeters of milk rose color
will result. In normal milk no color
is produced. In determining the
presence of milk sugar, small
amount of sodium acetate is added
in addition to phenylhydrazin and
ten per cent. soda solution, as in the
previous case. A rose color will re-
suit in the presence of milk sugar.

APPLE TREE BORERS.
Best Time to Combat These Pests
Says Prof. w. G. johnson, Is
in the Fall.

Apple growers through the country
lose annually many trees from the
ravages of the apple tree borer. There
are two species, one of which is known
as the fiat-headed borer and the other
the round-headed borer. Both are
shown in the accompanying illustra-
ton. By taking proper precaution
many apple trees could be saved il
watched carefully.
All trees should be closely exam
ined early in the fall, when the young
larvae or worms, if present, may be
detected by the discoloration of the
