A Supervisors Story.

Lockport, N. Y, Oct. 6th.-Mr.
George P. Penfold, supervisor for the
First ward of the city of Lockport, has
written the following letter for publ
cation to the newspapers:
1T gives me great pleasure to re-
commend Dodd's Kidney Pills as a.
cure for Kidney Trouble
my kidneys troubled me more or
less for years, and treatment by local
physicians only gave me partial and
temporary relief.
An old friend, knowing my trouble,
advised me to try Dodd's Kidney Pills.
telling me at the same time how much
they had helped him.
II used, altogether, six boxes. and
found permanent cure.
This was two years ago, and l. have
not since been troubled in any way,
with pains in the back, or any of the
many other distressing difficulties
arising from diseased Kidneys"

Look After the Hand Separators.

.ooN 1'ReT tHS t7dnO 0eparat0rS.
No good thing is a success unless
looked after. 1t is no argument
against hand separators to say that
unless they are taken care of they
will in year or so become unservice-
able. One man urges against them
that he has known people that did not
wash their separators more than once
week, and that in the meantime
the separators were a point of multi.
plication for all kinds of ferments and
perhaps disease germs that got into
them. But no agent Of a hand sepa-
rator would want to sell a hand sep
arator if he supposed the buyer would
use so little intelligence in its care

chaos. as regards our dairy matters.

1t Caused a Laugh.

Joseph Grismer, of "Way Down
East" tells the following story on him:
self:
During an engagement at the old
Bush Street theater, in San Francisco,
we were playing that melodramatic
piece, The Burglar I was the hero,
a burglar, and in one scene I had to
rush on the stage, lock the door and
exclaim: AHA, I have locked the door
and put the key in my pocket!' In.
stead of saying this, however, rushed
on, went through the business, and
then exclaimed, very dramatically:
AHA, have locked the key and put
the door in my pocket

See to the Horses Feet.

The horses feet should be frequent
~ examined, If he is to be protected
from such accidents as the picking up
Of nails, glass and strips of metal OF
various forms and sizes, says an ex-
change. The frequency with which
such accidents occur should cause in.
creased vigilance on the part Of those
that handle horses. If the horse steps
on nail, even though the head be
up, he may catch it in part of the
foot that forces it out of the rotten
board in which it was previously held.
The next step of the horse drives the
head of the nail further into it's rest
Ing place in the foot. The point of the
foot that is most subject to such mis-
haps is the frog and the cleft, just be-
hind the frog. Not only metal but
splinters of wood find their way into
this vulnerable region and become the
cause of pain to the horse, with SUBJ
sequent lameness. It is fortunate for.
the horse If the injury is such that he
shows lameness, thus leading to an in.
yestigation Of the feet and discovery
of the cause. But a good many times
the injury is not sufficiently great to
cause show of lameness, but it is
great enough to cause pain to the poor
beast, and that for days at time.
Frequently this is manifested by
disinclination to rest the weight on
this foot when in the stable. In mo-
ton the pain is not sufficient to pre-
vent the horse putting his foot down
as usual. Such injuries are found for
the first time when the horse has to be
rushed. Humanity should lead us to
frequently examine the feet to see that
all things are in a normal condition.

War on Milk Preservatives.


Borax and various other chemicals
are used in the preservation of meats
and some other foods. Generally the
argument for their use is that they
preserve the foods and do not injure
the eaters, as they are used in small
quantities: This may or may not be
true, but it is true that in milk no
preservation should be used. The
agent of borax preservative CON-
pany once called on the Farmers Re-
view and protested against the con-
slant attacks on the preservatives by
the Farmers Review. He claimed
that he could prove that when used to
preserve bacon preservatives of the
borax kind were not harmful. He was
asked chow about milk?' He said
that no preservative should be used in
milk and that his company had free
~ said that milk was not a food arti-
Gle that should be preserved by borax
or anything else. Yet borax is being
constantly sold for the preservation
OF milk. Invalids and children are
the principal sufferers. This is from
two reasons. First, they are weaker
than vigorous adults; second, they use
far larger quantities of milk. The
milkman that uses preservatiyes in
milk does an act that approaches the
crlm1nal.-Farmers' Review.

In order to grade the cream proRerly
he should have watts enough so he can
have one to put the poor cream in and
should have small tank in the wash

their floats in. He should not let
them rinse them over the cream watts
as they do in some factories visited
