How TO Detect Base Coin.

Several cases of making and circulat-
ing counterfeit coin have been heard
at the central criminal court during
the last few days, and at the conclusion
of one of the cases the foreman of the
jury asked the authorities if they would
take suggestion from twelve business
men who during the year had to deal
with considerable sums in silver coin.
There was, he said, most simple test
for the detection of base coin. 1t was
to sharply cut the milled edge of a good
coin against the milled edge of the
suspected coin. If spurious the metal
would almost Immediately begin to
shave off. After making a personal test
the common sergeant said he quite
agreed with the suggestion Of the jury
as to the usefulness of the test and
said it ought to be made known.-Lon-

DOES 1T PAY TO GRIND coRNr

During the past nine years Profess
or Henry of the Wisconsin experiment
station has conducted a careful series
of experiments with a view to deter
mining the advantage of ground corn
as a fattening ration over sheiled corn.
His findings, published in a recent bull
letin, seem to prove quite conclusively
that the advantage in grinding seems to
depend, first, almost entirely upon the
prevailing price of corn at the time
the feeding is done and, secondly, upon
the cost of grinding. He concludes his
report with a table showing the saw
ing from grinding the corn when it is
worth % cents per bushel and at reg
ular intervals up to 70 cents. He finds
that when corn is worth % cents per
bushel the saving by grinding is IA
cents per bushel; at 80 cents it is 1t
cents; at 80 cents, 1.9 cents; at 40
cents, p cents; at 40 cents, % cents;
at so cents, % cents; at 30 cents, 81
cents; at 60 cents, 3.4 cents; at 65
cents, 81 cents; at 20 cents SO cents,
and at rs cents, AZ cents. The feeder
must take into account the prevailing
cost of corn and grinding and deter
mine in each case whether it is prof
table to so handle it.

TUBERCULOSIS IN THE DAIRY.

There is probably no disease III the
whole category common to both man
and beast which is today receiving
more earnest or careful consideration
than tuberculosis. At no time has there
been q fuller realization Of the posi-
bility of infection from it or so gen
eral an interest in sensible methods for
checking and preventing ravages by it.
Among these methods the fresh air and
sunshine treatment, or outdoor cure, is
receiving especial attention. A tuber-
culosis specialist in the course Of a
paper read at a recent medical conyen-
ton cited the case of several monkeys
in the Lincoln park zoo at Chicago
which were in the last stages of tuber-
culOsis, but which were entirely cured
by exposing them in their open cage to
all kinds of weather during the winter
months. So successful did the expert
ment prove that the same treatment
will be used with ali other apes and
monkeys in the garden, whose average
life in confinement has been but four
teen months. The case here cited is but
a preliminary to the expression of
belief that a large percentage of tuber-
culOSis cases among dairy COWS is the
direct result of the pernicious practice
of keeping them closely confined dur
ing the winter months in badly lighted
and poorly ventilated stables, every
breath of clean, fresh air possible being
kept out in order to prevent a lowering
of fbo 20 I1Io A,1,.o AID xrI1O,,o
the COWS are kept confined in the stable
during the summer months, as is true
with a number Of silo diaries, the dan
ger from propagation and spreading
of the disease would seem to be greatly
increased. In this connection it would
seem to be pertinent to cite experiments
carried on by the Illinois experiment
station during the past two or three
winters, which proved conclusively that
dairy COWS that were left out all win
ter, but given a wholesome and nutri-
tous ration and clean, dry, open shed
in which to sleep nights, and stabbed
only at milking time, not only came out
healthier and stronger in the spring
but made a better milk and butter
4CCOl0 L11Cn a LAC AuL4DGE VI COWS LEU
the same ration, but kept closely stabbed
during the entire period. 1t stands to
reason that if tuberculosis is propa~
gated in monkeys and men by lack of
fresh air and sunshine the same
thing would be true of the dairy cow
It may take some time for this fresh
air and sunshine propaganda to gain a
foothold among stock raisers and dairy
men, but it is bound to come before
long, willy nilly. The way to check
tuberculosis in hogs is to give them
clean, dry and we'll ventilated quarters
and to quit feeding them milk from
tuberculosis infected cows, and the
way to stamp the plague out of the
dairy is to dispose of those animals
known to be infected and to provide
those remaining with the same kind Of
quarters as suggested for the hogs, with
a guarantee Of fresh air and sunshine
during every hour possible OUT of the
twenty-four.

COUNTY AGRICULTURAL SOCIETIES.

COUNTY AGRICULTURAL SOCIETIES.
In view of the quite general demise
Of the old time agricultural society, a
plan that is being followed in one Iowa
county is worthy of mention. To be-
gin with, the decadence of these soci-
cites seems to be due in part to the
greatly increased interest in the state
fairs, which offer superior exhibits
along all lines, and in part to the fact
that as ordinarily conducted the county
fair is exploited primarily as a money
making scheme, while benefit to be de-
rived by those who attend along the
line Of becoming acquainted with bet
ter varieties of grasses, grain and
stock as we'll as improved agricultural
methods is held as entirely subsidiary.
The plan proposed has in view the or
ganiZation Of an agricultural society in
which the farmers of the county shall
be the chief stockholders and whose
purpose shall be the holding of corn con-,
tests and general agricultural exhibits,
with either Of which races or other
amuSements may be combined. It is
relatively small per cent Of the farm
erS of any state who are able, or at
least take pains, to attend the state
fair; hence a county society organized
along the lines suggested would seem
fitted to fill very definite and useful
place. Combined with the county ex-
pertinent work which is being under
taken in many localities, it would seem
to have in it the possibility of develop
ing into sort of county agricultural
experiment exhibit, possessing definite
and practical value for the farmers Of
the county and forming a natural and
helpful auxiliary of the state expert
ment work. The fact that representa-
tive farmers were stockholders wouldi
give them personal interest in it's
success, lack of which has been at the
bottom of the discontinuance of many
of these once popular county exhibits.

Women are revengeful creatures. In
little town few miles away in
Maryland there lives a man who, as
pennsylvania people say, is so NEAR
that IN ten years he allowed his wife
to have only three frocks. It came out
in the testimony when she sued for
divorce. She won her suit, too, and
the man began to speedily realize the
error Of his ways. It cost him much
more to live when he had to pay cook
and laundress than when he had a
wife to work for him, so he began to
make overtures to the lady who had
left him.
He wanted her to remarry him, and
be promised to be a different man if
she would. She had gone to her peo-
pie in New Jersey, but she wrote that
reconciliation was possible. She want
ed to be married in style, though, with
a trousseau and wedding trip to Nj
agara Falls. He would have to send
her money for these things before she
would set the day. It nearly killed the
man to part with his money, but he
did 1t. She was a good manager, and
he calculated that the trousseau would
last her another ten years at least. He
let her buy railway tickets and ar
range everything.
Then he started for the scene. He
arrived there just an hour after the
lady married another man. He was

most bird lovers think, but to the great
admiration of the Belgians. The Scotch
fancy canaries develop a graceful
curve between the tip of the tail and
the top of the head that has almost
the exact sweep of the crescent. There
are other fancy varieties of canaries,
none of which are bred in great num-
bers or valued much except by a few
specialists, but all of which are held
at higher figures by those who like
them than the singing birds generally
are by anybody.
Nobody else loves the canary as the
German does; nobody else rears or
teaches the bird so skillfully and low
lngly as he, and a very large proper
ton of the canaries imported to this
country are bought by German-Ameri-
cans.
Both here and in the old world the
Germans form bird clubs and carry
them on with great enthusiasm, study
ing the peculiarities of their favorites
assiduously, listening critically to their
songs and discussing them with all the
seriousness that is given to criticism
OF the opera.
Such clubs are to be found in all
cities with large German population
IN Chicago, St. Louis and New York
for instance, and in many of the small
er Pennsylvania towns. The Green
Wlch street dealer says the Keystone
State is fairly speckled with them, the
number of bird clubs within it's bound
aries being greater than in any other
state. Contests between canary birds
or at least the holding of comparative
exhibitions of their power as singers
are not at all uncommon wherever
there are German canary enthusiasts,
and it is from the members of such
clubs that the importers and the breed
ers get fancy prices for fancy birds.
Americans sometimes work up a de-
gree of enthusiasm for canaries, but
their devotion to the melodious birds
never compares with that shown by
the Germans, either in degree, persist
ence, or, if the truth must be told, in
Intelligence. The Americans interest
in the canary, to put the case fatty, is
always faddish and feeting, while the
Germans is serious, lasting, and, with
regard to the birds song, of the nature
