Extraordinary cures were accom-

by the ancients to be an emblem of

recommended that the first anemone

hung around the neck. The juice of the

power OF hardening steel until no met

says Dogs Breed CONSUMPTION.

Professor Landouzy of the Paris fac
ulty of medicine makes the remarkable
statement that dogs are largely re-
sponsible for the spread of tuberculo-
sis. This disease has been not only
prevalent but ON the increase among
dogs during the last five years. The
proportion of tuberculous dogs dis
sected at the Abort Veterinary school
has risen from AZ to per cent. Most
OF the diseased animals belonged to
small cafe and restaurant keepers in
Paris and suburbs. The professor
quotes Il case in his own experience of
a young music hall singer who died of
consumption and her inseparable lap
dog. which died soon after its mistress
and was found to have tubercles in the
lungs, bronchial tubes and liver. Ian
douZy deems it quite possible that the
lady caught the disease from the dog.

Japanese Lacauer,

japanese lacquer is very curious
substance. A simple tree sap. like
maple sap. it is, yet when applied to
wood or metal quite indestructible. A
coat of lacquer is proof against alco-
hol, against boiling water, against al.
most all known agents. The lacquer
tree OF Japan is very large. 1t is al
ways cut down at the age of forty
years, as thereafter it begins to dry
up. Each tree yields on its demolition
about six barrels of lacquer sap The
japanese are very careful not to lei
foreigners into the secrets of lacquer.

Raising Some Fine Fruit.

r.. NJ Fuga'e, a prosperous farmer
oho has a farm about two and one bali
miles from iowa, brought To this ofiice
yesterday soma pears that are hard to
heat and fully demonstrates the fact
that "a fine fruit can be raised In this
section as in any part of United States.
There were four varieties in the lot
brought in, Sickle. Bartlett, Bloodgood
and Flemish Beauty. They are on dis
play 10 one Of the windows of the Elk
press building.
MIR. Fugate is a firm believer in the
fact that this is a great fruit growing
country and at present has twenty acres
of fruit bearing trees Of various kinds
under c%ultiyation. 1t ls his intention to
place his entire farm under fruit cultiva-
tion.
Mr.. Fugate states that he yield OF
fruit this year from the trees he has
that are old enough to bear is very
good. He expects to get about fifty
bushel of pears alone, in addition to the
large amount of other fruit. Although
there are only four varieties in the
number of pears brought to this Office
by Mr.. Fugate he has IN all about twenty
different kinds.
Mr.. Fugate Is firmly of the opinion
that this country is as well adapted Of
the growing Of fruit as any part of the
country. Care has to be exercised in
studying the different trees to hold
them back in order To escape the frosts.
