The Young Physician.
WHAT HIS EXPERIENCE PROVED.

In the early sixties it was usually the
duty OF q practfcing physician to ride
many miles every day on his regular
round of visits upon his patients. In
those days young man who had received
a splendid medical training in one of the
best medical colleges of that day was &C.
customed to ride ten, twenty or thirty
miles or more visiting the sick and
afflicted. His success was soon phcnom-
email. Doctors and families called him for
consultation to towns at considera ble dis
tances by rail. One of his specialties was
the cure Of those distressing diseases of
women. He had early discovered that
by combining the vegetable extract of
the following medicinal plants in just the
right proportion without the use of aico-
hol-his prescription invariably cured
such cases. Later. in order to place this
remedy before the public in a shape easily
to be procured. he established labora-
tory at Buffalo. N. y, where regularly
qualified chemists were put in charge to
accurately prepare his prescription and
put it in shape for shipment to all parts
OF the United States. This remedy. which
he named DR.. Picrce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton, is not a "patent medicine" in the
common acceptance of the term, but a
tonic for women, and a regular phy&-

Decreased Consumption Of Wool i,
Great Britain.

1tCde oCIIdIHs
According to the figures OF an ex-
pert statistician, there is great
shrlnkage in the consumption of wool
in Great Britain. The average per can
ita since 1890 was as follows: 1890
to 1894, 1885 pounds; 1895 to 1899,
1913 pounds; 1900 to 1904, 15.73
pounds. The alleged cause is disas-
trous drouths in Australia greatly in
creaslng the price of wool. While
the consumption declined from 524.-
100000 pounds in 1900 to 4e6, 800 900
pounds in 1904, the estimated con-
sumption OF shoddy increased from
130,000,00o pounds in 1900 to 1So ,o00,-
600 pounds in 1904.
The consumption OF home grown
wool has steadily declined year bv
year, with only two breaks since 1870
when it amounted to 15O,lO0 600
pounds. The consumption of foreign
wool increased year by year, durin 9
the same period, with only one break
from 191 100000 pounds in 1870 to
423, 100000 pounds in 1901. Since then
it has steadily declined. 1t is predict.
ed there will be an even greater con-
sumption Of shoddy, and inevitably
less consumption of wool in 1905 than
in 19O4.-Frank w. Mahin, Consul,

Grandfather's Odd Habit Had Embar-
RAISING Consequences. 5r Il,
:: "My grandfather had one curious
habit" said a Virginia woman. HE
chewed the rag constantly. I don't
mean it in a figurative sense, either. I
mean it literally. When he was about
80 the doctors persuaded him to give
up the use of tobacco, and he used a
rag instead. Grandmother used to
cut worn-out tablecloths into little
squares and lay them in a drawer
ready for grandfather. When ne was
going out anywhere she tucked sever
al into his faistcoat pocket. He chew
ed from daylight till dark. Once
grandfather and I went to the funeral
of a great man here in town. Grand
mother was ill that day and forgot to
tell me about the rags. We sat we'll
up toward the front, and grandfather
was no sooner seated than he put two
fingers into his waistcoat pocket. No
rag. He searched through all his
pockets, one after the other. No rag
anywhere. He began to wriggle about
in his seat uneasily. He was in mis-
cry with nothing to wriggle his Jaws
on. The service went on, and when
the choir rose to sing 1 saw one OF
grandfather's hands disappear under
his waistcoat His eyes were fixed on
the choir and he looked determined.
There was a fartissimo burst of mu-
sic, and then, in the moment of abso-
lutte stiffness which followed, every
body heard something tear Grand
father turned vivid purple, but when
he raj sed his head after the prayer
little later, his jaws were at work.

Feeding the British Calf.

ROOT crops, in some form, are fed
on every farm during the fall, winter
and early spring months. In this man
ner' succulent food is furnished dur
ing all seasons Of the year. Grass is
the staple food during the summer
season, while some form of roughage,
such as hay or straw, in conjunction
with oats, linseed cake and roots, form
the basis of the winter rations. In
those districts where the climate is
mild, the animals are out of doors
great deal during the winter season,
While in the north of Scotland the ami
mails are very closely confined in
warm stables during the cold months
OF winter. A noticeable feature of the
feeding of young stock is the fact that
growth and health, not flesh, are the
only points sought for. This is espe-
clally true Of the females, while in
the case of males, more flesh is bene-
fetal when they are of a salable age.
The breeders of beef cattle practice
somewhat different methods of rear
ing their calves. Some feed them on
skim milk and grain adjuncts; others
on whole milk, while the majority al
low the calves to suckle their moth
ers. One of the most noted Shorthor3
breeders in England follows the prac-
tice OF milking his COWS and feeding
the calves the whole milk, instead of
sucking the calves. This is done for
the purpose Of having his cows breed
more regularly, as when he allowed
the calves to suckle the COWS, many
of his best COWS were very irregular
IN their breeding habits, but since
adopting the milking of the COWS, this
difficulty has been overcome. In all
parts of the country there is distinct
line drawn between the methods of
feeding animals for breeding purposes
and those in vogue for fattening pur.

Raising Hot-House Lambs.

On raising what he calls :'hothouse"

New York.
On this farm the Dorset is raised ex-
closlVely, as it is the only breed that
can oe depended upon to lamb out Of
season, and it is out of season that
lamos must come if they are to be
sofa at fancy prices. The Dorset is
one OF the most prolific breeds and
tne dams produce so much milk that
they can easily suckle twins. On the
1arm referred to out of twenty one
ewes lambing twenty produced twins.
Inc manager of this farm says that
1t is no harder to raise October lambs
than March lambs. No artificial heat
IS required. Any we'll built barn is
warm enough and even a shed will do
IL IL is well protected from the cold
winds and rains.
There are two times in the year
when the lamb CROP Is turned off. One
OF these is in January, at which time
the October and November born lambs
are ready to be disposed of, and in
April about Easter, when the lambs
that are born in January and February
are ready for market.
AS to prices, it is said that the Octo-
Der and November born lambs COM

The writer of the article mentioned

able, however, that he has not seen

farm owner and that only the rosy
side is presented to the public. The
raising Of lambs for sale at unusual
times is a profitable one, but it takes

Strong Piqs.

Whether we raise pigs for pork or for
breeders we want strong pigs with
good constitutions. The weakling is
good for neither the one nor the
other. The weak pig naturally has
q weak digestion, and the weak d.
gestion means that when he is four
or five months old he will begin to
fail to properly digest his food, and
the food we do put into him will give
us less pounds OF pork than if put
into a pig with vigorous digestive
covers. ~

Egg-Eatinu Hens,

The eating OF eggs by hens
may be from several causes. It
does not always prove that tho
bird is not properly fed. Some
times it is habit that must be cured
by killing the fowls At other times
it can be cured by giving the fowls
all the old plaster they can use. At
other times it is due to idleness and
the desire on the part of the hens to
be doing something. The writer has
cured hens from the habit by placing
doctored eggs where they could eet
them, filling the eggs with nauseating
compounds. This should not be tried
till the birds have been given a BAL
anced ration and plenty of plaster.
