Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1905-09-27
Mercury.

Mercury, made of quicksilver, Is a
heavy fluid, dull, silvery metal in APP
pearance. 1t Is used in the forms Of
blue ointment, blue mass and gray
powder.
Blue mass is a powerful substitute
for calomel, acting heroically on the
liver, but is not often given.
Mercury ointment is mixture Of
mercury, lard and suet. 1t is a pow
erful remedy and is used in some skin
affections rubbed on externally; also
Is used for sciatica by rubbing twice a
day In the axilla under the arms.
Mercurial ointment mixed with
warm lard so that it can be applied
with brush is used to destroy para
sites.
Blue mass is one-third mercury. The
remaining two-thirds is a suitable ma
terial to bring into pliable form. The
dose is from three to twenty grains.
Too much mercury taken into the sys-
TEN will evince itself by the following
symptoms: Tenderness about the teeth,
fetid breath, with spongy gums. If
the use Of mercury is continued the
skin of the neck and chest becomes az
fected and salvation follows; also the
nervous system becomes affected.

AS we note it. the majority of men
who take UP the business Of feeding
cattle for the beef market make fail
ure of II IN The long run. There is a
science about this business which only
the few seem to possess. In one western
community fourteen farmers thought
they could most profitably operate their
farms making beef production a spe-
cialty. Only one had dollar to show
for profit At the end OF ten years.
Most of them, While they had made
living, had been obliged to incumber
their farms, some Of them to the limit.
The mistakes they made lay In the
line OF paying too much for feeders or
too much for corn, but more probably
In the line of injudicious selection OF
the type of animals fed. The one MN
who almost without exception made
money on his beef cattle raised high
grade Hereford steers himself, fed
I'm as baby feed and marketed them
wAen year and half old. The fact
is when a man buys four and half
cent poorly bred tbree-year-old steer
and tries to fatten II on fifty cent corn
he is tackling problem which can
only result in loss.

There is a greater demand today for
dependable men than any other kind;
not so much for brilliant or very smart
men as for those who can be implicitly
trusted-men honest on principle to the
core, who will always do well and
faithfully the duties assigned them. In
fact, we are tempted to say that the
very best equipment for a young man
today is to be honest, industrious and
clean. for thousands want just this
sort. Ability and experiences follow
close on the heels Of industry and ap-
plication.

There is very little said, In the farm
papers especially, about the man who
has to buy farm products-the patient
consumer. who alone makes a market
for what the farmer raises. The farm
er is always congratulated when he
gets % cents for his eggs, 80 cents for
his butter and like good prices for
other staple farm products, but all the
time he is doing 1t some laboring man
or salaried clerk is figuring very close
to keep his living expenses inside his
income, and just in proportion as the
farmer rejoices over the good prices he
gets, the consumer has to scratch his
head and plan how to get along with
out the things. The city consumer
practically has to fight for existence,
for he carries on his shoulders lot Of
middlemen who must all have profit,
and lie is only too often victimized in
the matter Of the quality Of the things
which he has to buy-eggs and butter,
for instance, Strawberries. beefsteak
and the like. A man needs to be
mighty sharp to live in city and buy
his living supplies, and most of them
get to be.

We saw wise farmer the other day.
He had produced on his farm this year
forty acres of corn and hundred tons
Of clover and timothy hay. He was
busy baling his hay for market, it be-
ing worth 81 per ton delivered at his
depot. He had cut up his field of corn
and was preparing to shred it and will
secure from his cornfield all the forage
needed for his stock this winter. Most
of his neighbors will feed their hay and
leave their corn fodder to be stripped
by winter winds In the cornfelds and
be thus practically wasted. 1t is hard
work to make some men understand
that the feeding value of an acre Of
good corn fodder is equal to ton and
o half Of good hay.
