WHOSE FAULT IS TIP

The world is full of disease and
pain. Whose fault is it? Every
body's; therefore often the fault
of the sufferers themselves But
the pressing question is,-what to
do, how to relieve, how to cure.
What would become of US If
means were not found to destroy
disease? Why, then, of course,
disease would destroy us and the
world would be depopulated. Un-
til we learn how 70 prevent dis
ease, we must be thankful for the
means of GbatiRg and curing it
after it has seized upon US, and
stands, like a savage with uplifted
axe, ready to take our lives. Es-
pecially do we need some sure
and speedy form of treatment
for those complaints which are
universal,-which arise in every
country and climate. We allude
to such ailments as Nervous and
General Debility, Hysteria, Scro-
fula, Chronic Diarrhea, Asthma,
Throat and Lung Complaints,
Blood Impurities, and the ills of
women and children. For these

This is such a simple operation when
the animal is young that 1t is difficult
to explain why it Is postponed until the
horns are fully grown. Caustic potash
in sticks is the material to be used. 1t
can be secured cheaply at any drug
store. When the calf is three days old.
tie his feet together and lay him in a
clean, well-littered place. Press his head
firmly to the ground with the knee and
locate the pimple which indicates the
budding horn. Wet the spot well, then
take the sick of potash wrapped in paper.
with the end exposed and rub around the
embryonic horn until it is well coated
with potash. Roll the calf over and re-
peat the operation on the other side. If
after a week or ten days any signs Of
growth appear about the scar. touch UP
with potash as before, and the animal
will grow up as thoroughly polled as if
he had been born in that condition.

HANDLING DUCK FEATHERS.

The feathers of Pekin ducks are OF espe-
citI value from the fact of their being
white What are termed live feathers
are always in demand. and this means
feathers picked from live geese and ducks
A correspondent of the Agriculturist says
that as feather producers alone, Pekin
ducks may be made a profitable Industry
on every farm. They viii produce some
three or four crops of feathers during
the months that are sufficiently warm TO
pick them, and a dozen ducks will soon
furnish one with beautiful new pair of
feather pillows
When the ducks begin dropping their
feathers, or melting them, as the process
is called. they are then ripe, and fit for
picking, and the feathers can be pulled
out without drawing blood left in the
end of the shaft Better to pick, and thus
save the feathers. than to have the farm
covered with them. Ducks we'll washed
in cold or warm weather before picking
then put on clean straw TO dry, give
beautifully white, clean feathers.
When the picking is done, put the feath
ers into several sacks OF very thin ma
terial and hang them out of doors in the
air all day and every day. I have learn
ed by experience TO put the down into
one sack and the feathers into another,
when picking. To take from new feath-
ers the disa greeable odor that stays with
them so long usually. and which comes
from the meaty end Of ne wpicked feath
ers, they can be plunged into very hot
water left there to scald for a little time,
then rinsed and hung in the hot sun 70
dry Having taken the precaution to keep
down and feathers separate, the feath-
ers will dry in fluffy shape and make
desirable pillows.
In one lot of feathers in which we put
a heavy picking of down. and then scald-
ed. we found they would not return to
their original state of hghtness, but were
inclined to be pasted together with the
down, and remain somewhat rolled.
After feathers have been scalded and
dried. the down can be mixed with them
if essred, or kept to make down cushions
and pillows. If the feathers are not
scalded. the disagreeable odor of new
feathers remains a long time, yet 1t dis
appears If the sacks of feathers are kept
out of doors or IN an open, roomy cham
