Do Typhoid Germs Pass : Through
Cows. ~

= The Oregon experiment station
gives an account of experiments made
with various germs found in. water.
During the experiment water impreg-
mated with germs of different sorts
usually found in water were given to
the COWS to drink, but no trace could
be found Of them in the milk Later
typhoid bacilli in the water were ad-
ministered, with only a trace of the
typhoid germs in the cultures made of
the milk. The results obtained by
this investigation are gratifying, in.
asmuch as they are conclusive: First,
that a pure culture of typhoid bacilli
mixed with water and given to the
cow to drink did not pass into the
milk. Second, that they did not pass
from the cow alive with the excreta;
third, that they did not pass from the
COW alive with the urine, and fourth,
that they were not taken into the
udder by capillary attraction through
the teat orifice.

A dying patient RECEIVERS through
the interposition OF q humble German.
~ Chicago, Nov. 15. .%
Some weeks ago DR.. c. q very
reputable and widely known physi-
clan, living on G. -- Street, was call
ed to attend q very complicated case
of Rheumatism. Upon arriving at the
house he found a man about forty
years of age, lying in Frustrated and
serious condition, with his whole frame
dangerously affected with the painful
disease. He prescribed for the, pa.
tient, but the man continued to grow
worse, and on Sunday evening he was
found to be in a very alarming c0ndi-
ton. The knees and elbows and larg-
er joints were greatly inflamed, and
could not be moved. 1t was only
with extreme difficulty that the pa
tient could be turned in bed, with the
aid of three or four persons. The
weight of the clothing was 50 painful
that means had to be adopted to keep
it from the patients body.
The doctor saw that his assistance
would be of no avail, and left the
house, the members of the family fol-
lowing him to the door, weeping, Al
most Immediately the grief stricken
ones were addressed by an humble
German. He had heard of the despair
of the family, and now asked them to
try his remedy, and accordingly
brought forth a bottle of st. Jacobs
Oil. The poor wife applied this rem
edy. The first application eased the
patient very much; after few hours
they used it again, and, wonder of
wonders, the pain vanished entirely!
Every subsequent application improv-
ed the patient, and in two days he
was we'll and out. When the doctor
called few days after, he was in
deed surprised.

The preliminary returns OF the mum.
Der Of live stock IN the United King
dom on June 4, 1902, are issued, and
show that the total head Of cattle In
Great Britain was f207. 918 less than
last year, while In Ireland there was
an increase 81 51OS, 8S1, which gives a
total reduction Of SO, 037, says the
Dairy World Of London, England. The
milking herd in Great Britain was q
556, 126, being Al, 1853 Tess than last
year. while in Ireland there was ! ,51O,-
70l, being an increase Of F28,218, so
that the total reduction was only H.
$50. The reported deficiency Of about
100000 in the milking herd is there
fore very wide Of the mark. It is
curious to note that while the
droughty summer of 1898 reduced the
milking herd of the United Kingdom
by 1850, and all other cattle two
years old and over by 9Q,S11, or near
ly equal to the, milking herd, the
droughty summer of last year reduced
the milking herd by only 1850, and
the cattle two years old and over by
s9,512, or more than three times the
reduction Of cows and heifers. 1t
may be that the higher price of milk
last autumn was the factor which in.
duced the farmer to keep his cows in
preference to his other cattle. 1t was
not so with butter, for the price was

Value Of. Pedlarees.>

Ni0O
#% W. m. McFadd den, In an address be
fore Iowa swine breeders, said:
Only BY the intelligent use Of the
knowledge Of pedigrees have the best
results in breeding been obtained, and
yet nothing has been attended with
such disastrous results as theepedigr
craze. It seems quite impossible fol
the average breeder to know just how
far to go with the use Of the pedigree
He learns to study pedigree so as to
derive the information he wants in re
gard to what it means and to note the
effect Of blood lines in crossing and tc
determine what might reasonably be
expected from an animal after the
proper study Of it's ancestors. Having
attained some little success along this
line, q breeder is almost sure to be
come intoxicated with the pedigres
craze, and then comes the disaster
both In a financial way and in the
breeding results. No man ever vel
made success who bred for pedigree
alone, and, on the other hand, no man
has ever made. permanent success
VINO d1sregarded pedigree. A pedigree
should be valuable for the purpose Of
showing the commingling of blood
which produces certain results. A
well posted breeder soon learns thai
certain families have peculiar char
acteristics and he may want just thost
characteristics, or he may wish equal
ly as much to avoid them: It is unfor
tunate, however, that the study of ped
igree frequently leads to the use Of
an animal simply because it is well
bred. In no way is it more possible tt
perpetuate certain undesirable quail
ity than by the use Of well-bred, o.,
so-called well-bred, scrub. A. thorough
knowledge of families will enable q
breeder to forsee certain results of de
velopment in an animal that is o.
great advantage in determining it
value.

Process Butter Sales Decreased.

Process Butter Sales Decreased.
1t is reported from various mar.
kets that the effect of the recent legis.
lation regarding oleomargarine and
process butter has been to greatly
curtail the sale of both. Process but.
ter men declare that the effect has
been disastrous on their business,
especially on the exportable surplus
OF this butter. We think the great
mass OF dairymen will not find much
fault with this result. While the
maker Of poor butter may not SO
readily sell it as formerly, the max.
er OF good butter will not find pro.
cess butter taking his trade away by
means of an article that masquerades
as fresh-made creamery butter. The
present law merely prevents fraud,
and should have the support Of every
honest man.-Farmers' Review.

Cow Keepers, VS.. Da:rymen.

A western writer says that there art
many cow keepers, but few dairymen
He distinguishes between the, tive
rather sharply. He says that the mel
with dairy instincts come out to heal
lectures on the feeding Of the dair!
cow, they read how to handle anG
how to improve her, and the result il
that their out-turn of milk is YER,
greatly increased. The ''cow-keep
ers" he describes as fossilized. The,
will not only not improve their dair!
cows; but they will not learn how t
feed to get the best results from wha'
they have. He cites the instanc!
where at one large creamery it wa,
found on investigation that the cow,
were yielding only ten pounds Of mill
per day on the average and that, too
In the flush Of the season. One Of tn.
great troubles is that no cow census ii
taken by most Of our milk-using in
st1tutions, and the patrons are thus
not brought to realize that their cow
are giving very small amount o!
milk. Probably one of the gbest way.
to increase the production of milk Il,
to take COW census every year a.
least, If not every six months, and the1
show the patrons just what their cow,
are doing. When they have the fig
ures brought home to them they the1
begin to wake up to the necessity o.
doing something. There are man,
COW keepers that can be made ints
good dairymen with q. sufficient
amount of Earring.

There is little cause for wonderment in the declaration that Mir. Carnegie is not a praying man. It is MT. Rocke- feller who works the pious business to finish, and it is easy to understand that he makes 1t a bit fatiguing for other suppliants at the throne of grace by his importantly. There is nothing on earth, by the way, that makes re- ligion so odious as to see it continually exploited by persons whose hearts are set on all of the things of this world that they can get their hands on. Rockefeller wouldn't be hated half as heartily as he is if he was straight out with his game of grab. and didn't make such a bad bluff at being good Here is where Carnegie has the best of the rich Standard Oil churchman. He does not believe in anything he can't see. and he doesn't pretend to. He-is quite frank In his zeal in laying up treasures on earth. but he puts on none of the affectation about the fear of moth and thieves that makes people laugh at Rockefeller. Carnegie says he has not bothered heaven with petitions for forty years. And. pray, why should he? Isn't he receiving all that is com- ing to him without troubling provi- dence to help him? The mere fact that Rockefeller is a praying man is the best proof in the world that he can't get enough.-Kansas City Times.

Why Not Use English2

Why can't We stick to English" ex- claimed the girl who had just been sat upon. Its really adequate to most Of our needs. But no, We must lug in foreign tongues. Now one of the first things that impressed me was the correction received from a friend, who had lived long in Paris. at my three-syllabled pronunciation of the word boulevard. Very rightly she said I'd no use for the word anyway. as very few of our so-called boulevarCis are built over old fortifications. She did, however, implore me to pronounce 1t in two syllables if I felt I must in- dulge. Despite the fact that Webster advised boo-le-var I boldly stood for bool-var. Now comes an authority of another persuasion and sits on me with the information that the Century au- thorizesl boulevard. Thanks for the d, even if 1t Is a small one.

nonunent to q Boss

In the current number of McClure's Magazine there Is strong story of the methods emrIoyed by the old political ring in Pittsburg. headed by the late Christopher Magee. familiarity known as Chris" This story is something of surprise to those on the outside, and 1t reveals a condition of affairs the equal to anything that has ever been told of New York. Chicago, St. Louis or Phila- delphia, to say nothing of San Francis co. Minneapolis or Cincinnati. The story of Magee's tremendous grasp upon Pfttsburg reads like a romance, but it has been the real thing for the people of Pittsburg. It is not charged that Magee and his fellows robbed the city directly. but they were in supreme command of affairs and thus they were the government. Everything they wanted they took and everything that anybody else wanted had to be paid for. For instance. contracts for stone work for bridges were so worded that only a particular sort of stone could be used and this stone was owned by parties who were helping run the city's affairs. There was a revolt in due time, but only to change the manager of the city. so 1t Is made to appear.
 While Christopher Magee was a man of wonderful executive ability, and while he was a master hand in politics. he was nevertheless not exactly the sort Of man to be held up to the grow ing generations as a model for those who seek to advance their material in- terests along the right lines, Magee

Goethe's Prophetic Imagination.

In one of his conversations with Erckmann. the record of which has just been discovered. Goethe predicted that the United States, urged by her desire for more rapid communication between the east and west, would cut a canal between the Atlantic and the Pacific. This was in 1927, when We had nothing on the Pacific but the Oregon country. which Horace Greeley twenty years later thought to be worthless. Goethe said at the same time that he would like to live long enough to see the Danube and the Rhine connected and the English in possession of the Isthmus of Suez.
 These are examples of the prescience of the scientific mind illuminated by the poetic imagination. Goethe was an.

all-round genius-poet, philosopher and man of science. The man so endowed is likely to be something of a seer. The scientific collector who digs up and classifies facts has his uses. but knowi- edge does not become really vital until it has been touched by imagination.
 IL is interesting to see how Goethe dwells on such things as Panama, Sue2, the Rhine and the Danube. The im- provement of natures typographical work always seems to have had a fas- cination for him. He made Faust win salvation through retaining land from the sea.-New York World.

Subject for Another Vanity Fair"

The marriage of the young and inn pecunious English earl to a young American woman of large wealth in Pittsburg, was attended by incidents that were humiliating to the national pride. This young man, with titles to burn" had debt writ served upon him by English attorneys only an hour or two before the wedding ceremony, which could not fail to emphasize the notorious fact that this noble earl had come over to marry American dollars. Most Of these alliances are disgusting. and they exhibit America in a light that is far from flattering. A genius like Thackeray could find in them th- material for new Vanity Fair" that would rival even the original in power. Springfield Republican.
