COWS on cement Floors.

From Farmers Review; We have
about 20 cows at the Ohio State Uni.
versity that recline more or less, six
months in the year, on cement floors.
Thus far, rheumatism has not pre-.
vailed in our herd, within my knowl-
edge. | have no evidence. from exper.
fence or otherwise, that corroborates
Professor Carlyle's view that cows
standing on cement floors become
rheumatic.-C. S. Plumb, Ohio State
University.

Gated upon certificates of registry and
thus pass from owner TO owner, as
constant means OF Identification As
in this system the marks, in case of
error cannot be rubbed out, care is
required to secure accuracy. The OPP
orator requires rubber stamp show
ing the ears unnotched. With these
he can stamp first a series of impress
sions of the head and ears upon the
pages of a record book and also upon
sheet of paper. notehing and number
ing the impression in the book just as
he proposes to notch the ears of the
animals to be marked, making the
impression and marks also on the
sheet of paper TO correspond. Then,
with this duplicate sheet in hand,
when doing the work. he can be sure
to mark the animals exactly as shown
in his REGARD book. For numbering
polled cattle so that the markings
shall be reliable and permanent, the
plan indicated by the accompanying
illustration is presented.
The explanation is as follows:
notch In bottom or le1t ear equals
/; two notches equal 2.
A notch in top Of left ear equals 3;
.wo notches, g.; three notches, 9.
A notch in bottom of right ear
equals 10; two notches equal 20.
notch in top of right ear equals
30; two notches 60; three notches 80.
A notch in end Of left ear equals
100.
notch in end of right ear equals
200.
A hole in end of left ear equals 400.
A hole in end of right ear equals 500.
A hole in bottom Of left ear equals
1000.
Numbers can thus be made from 1
% 1000. The following is an exam
ole:
One notch in bottom of left ear.
Two notches in top Of left ear. 6
One notch in bottom OF right ear. 10
One notch in end of right ear..... 200

The water supply is almost always
connected with outbreaks of typhoid
fever. Sometimes the connection is
indirect, as through milk, which has
been contaminated by contaminated
water supply. Could we but know the
facts, it would doubtless appear that
there are hundreds of local epidemics
each year that have been started by
contaminated milk supply. Only last
fall We reported an epidemic in
small village in northern Illinois,
which was due entirely to milk from
small dairy in the outskirts Of the
village. About thirty cases resulted
and at least two deaths. Just now
typhoid is raging at Stanford Uni
versity in California and dispatches
say that it is due to milk from local
dairy. About 100 students are down
with the disease. The dairy that was
known to have been the cause for the
outbreak has been closed down, while
some other dairies under suspicion
have had to go out OF business tenn
porarily. The fever has also appeared
in the university town of Palo Alto.
due probably to the use of the same
milk that started the disease in the
university. One-third Of the pupils are
out OF school. This is but another
costly lesson of the danger of using
unclean milk. II there we're no other
reason for waging war on dirty sur
roundings of the diaries, the readiness
with which milk conveys disease
should be sufficient.
Build Silos.
There are several very good reasons
why men should build silos, II they
have large numbers of cattle to feed.
There is less waste OF fodder when it
Is preserved in the silo than when
taken care of in any other way. 1t
requires very much less room to store
in silos than in any other way. 1t is
claimed that when the fodder is dried
and stored in the barn it requires
three times the room it does when
stored in the silos. Silage is also more
valuable than the dry fodder for milk
production, just as June pasturage
gives more milk than dry hay. Silage
Is as succulent and far more valuable
that roots. Silage keeps the digestive
organs of the cows in excellent con-
dition, and thus disastrous outbreaks
of disease are prevented. Silage can
be put up when it would be impos-
sible to cure the crop. on account OF
wet weather. II Is less trouble to
get silage made right than 1t is to get
a crop Of corn in the glazing stage
cured properly. If silage is left over
in the spring ii may be used for help
ing out the pasturage with the best
results. for it is even superior to good
pasturage. With silage there Is no
sudden change from green to dry food,
which always means shrinkage of
the milk flow.

SAN FRANCISCO. March 2O.-The police
OF this city apparently do not place much
confidence in the story of the man under
arrest at Fremont, Neb., and who says he
is John Bennett, the murderer of Nora
Fuller. 1t is suspected that the man is
demented or is trying to obtain a free trip
to California.
About a year ago the dead body Of Nora
Fuller, a 16-year-old GIRL. was found in a
vacant house in Sutton street. The body
was nude when found and haa been dead
several days.
A man giving the name of John Bennett
had rented the house, and Nora Fuller had
answered an advertisement inserted in a
morning newspaper by John Bennett. The
police after investigation declared that
Bennett and Charles B.. Hadley, an &C.
countant, were the same.
Hadley disappeared at the time Nora
Fuller's body was found and no trace of
him has been discovered. although men
in all parts OF the world have been ar
