catarrh Causes Female Diseases.

America is the land of nervous women.
The great majority of nervous women are
so because they are suffering from some
form OF female disease. BY far the great
est number of female troubles are caused
directly by catarrh. These women despair
of recovery. Female trouble is so common,
so prevalent, that they accept it as almost
inevitable. The greatest obstacle in the
way of recovery is that they do not under
stand that it is catarrh which is the source
of their illness.
In female complaint, ninety-nine cases
out of one hundred are nothing but catarrh-

KNOW About the Cows.

It is astonishing how little most
COW owners know about their ami
mails. One man will have a lot Of
good, average and poor cows, and yet
have very little conception of their
real or relative value. To demonstrate
this, one has but to go out to buy
a COW, and inquire as to milking
capacity of any one Of them at any
farm. He is told that such and such
a COW gives "pailful" of milk twice
a day." and that 1t is very rich. Not
infrequently he is told that the COW
gives ten quarts of milk morning and
night, with the inference that this
rate of milk giving is continued the
year around. But the scales and the
test change all these opinions. The
COW that was reported to be giving
about 40 pounds per day is found to
be giving about one-third of that on
an average. The other rate would
have given over $4,000 pounds Of milk
per year and cows giving that amount
are not too numerous. The man that
buys cows to put into dairy is COM
ing to demand very complete .knowl-
edge OF them. He wants a yearly
knowledge of weight Of milk pro-
duced, as well as richness tests
throughout the milking period. He
will not, II he is wise, trust the hired
mans or any one else's guess as to
how much milk COW can give.
Cow Capacity.
In the selection Of a milch COW for
the farm some attention should be
paid to her capacity to produce milk.
There are on American farms alto
gether too many cows that give only
5000 or 1000 pounds of milk per
year. The 5000 pounds of milk mark
is a good one to strive for, and IL
man can get together herd Of cows
that can average that amount he. Is
about sure to make money out Of
them. But this milk should be above
the average in richness, say per cent.
There are indeed numerous cows that
give as high as 10000 pounds of milk
per year, but they form but small
per cent of the whole. At the pres
ent time an average of even 5000
pounds Of a per cent milk is some
thing to look forward to. 1t is to be
regretted that in the past there has
not been more method in breeding
up and selection. Cows have been
retained in the herd without much
regard for their real capabilities, and
ones that have been sent to the butch
er have also been little understood.
Some of our best strains as well as
some of the poorest have gone to the
shambles; and this process continued
year after year has been to the detri-
ment Of our herds.
