Uses of Sour Milk.

Under the above topic a writer in
the Ladies' World says that pages of
matter useful to the cook could be
written on the quart of sour milk the
ignorant cook pOurs through the drain
pipe. thinking it is of no account.
We have taken the liberty of offer
ing our Florida women a few of them,
knowing how easily and quickly our
milk sOurs through the summer
One writer says: Some time ago
1 learned the secret of using sour
milk in my general baking. and have
used it ever since with the best of
success The secret consists in using
baking powder as well as soda with
the SOUR milk, the principle being to
use only soda to cOunteract the acid
ity of the milk, using baking powder
as the Ieavening agent in the usual
way Of course this is contrary to
custom. but the result leaves nothing
to be desired
The proportions are one level tea
spoonful of soda to full pint Of sour
milk. with two level teaspOOnfuls of
baking powder. Exactness in measur-
ing is necessary, as it is highly i'm
pOrtant not to use more soda than will
be taken up by the acid of the milk
If one has not the measuring
fill an ordinary teaspoon with soda
which has been mashed to free it from
Jumps, and scrape off with knife
level with the spoon. For half spoon
fuls divide straight down the center
from handle to tip, and for quarters
divide the half again crOsswise
The proportions of one teaspoonful
to pint of liquid allows for very
sour or lOppered milk. For milk of
various degrees of acidity these
measurements may be shaded. until
for milk that has merely .'changed'
only enough soda is used to give a
slight tang.

DISEASE AMONG CATTLE
Explained by State Veterinarian at
Clemson College.

Explained by State Veterinarian at
Clemson College.
Within the last month the State
veterinarian has received . number Of
letters concerning cattle affected with
sore mouth and, in many cases, sore
CT tender feet. As the disease seem
to be generally prevalent, no doubt as
q suit of the long continued We
weather, the following information
concerning it is supplied for publica-
tion:
The disease Is known in medicine
as mycotic stomatitis. It is not con.
taginus or infectious but Is caused by
fungi or moulds which grow upon for.
age or grass. These +, Dgi, which
grow luxuriantly in wet seasons, have
very irritant effect upon the lining
membrs ne Of the mouth, the mem
brane covering the tongue and upon
the soft skin bets the claws.
Affected animals eat and drink With
great difficulty or not at all, the 81.
liva forms ffoth around the lips OF
dribbles from the mouth, tho nom
traue lining the mouths red and hot
AMI contains ulcers, the Offensive odor
is usually present. Son etimes the
skin between tho claws and just above
the hoof is affected and then the ami
NAL walks stiff and sore. The trouble
Is usually confined tt tho anterior
limbs but all four legs may be attack
ed. In milk COWS ulcers may also up
pear OH the udder and teats.
Herds of cattle In which animals
have been attacked with this deseas
should be removed from the pasture
In which they have been running
The affected animals should be fed OF
soft food, such as bran mashes, mea.
and gruels. They should have free
acc ,ss at all times to clean. cool water
and two heaping tablespoonful OF
bOrax should be dissolved in each OF
the first two buckets of water giVsD
each day. The mouth should be
washed out daily with solution OF
creolins-ons tablespoonful of oreoline
to each quart Of water-and following
this half.tablespoonful Of alum OF
borsx should be placed on tho tongue
Diseased areas on the feet should be
washe d daily with the creoline soluti.u
and afterward covered with Zinc oint.
ment. II this treatment is properly
applied and the animals are carefully
fed the disc ase will rapidly disappear.

ber, was day of hilarious excitement,
and In more than one congregation,
gathered together ostensibly for med
itation and worship, the Evil One
made himse;f manifest In no uncer'
tain manner"
The News then goes on to say that
two colored youths were arraigned be-
fore the Mayor on the charge OF fight

Sunday before. Then one William
J ,hnson, also colored, was hauled up

other Gu cn. According to the News.

Then Ca me the Rsv. G.. w. Burgess

1t looks like these cases ought to be
