DISEASE DEFINED BY DOOR
Sense of Smell Relied Upon by Ex-
perts to Determine Nature
of Ailments.

The acuteness Of the sense Of smell
Is far greater in many of the lower an
imals, dogs, for example, than in man,
and they employ it in guiding them
to their food, in warning them Of ap
preaching danger and for other pur
poses, says the Spatula. The sphere
of the susceptibility to various odors
Is more Uniform and extended in man
and the sense of smell is capable OF
great cultivation. Like the other spe
cial senses, it may be cultivated by
attention and practice. Experts car
discriminate qualities of wines, liquors
drugs, etc. Diseases have their char
acterstic odors.
Persons who have visited many diff
ferent asylums for the insane recog
nize the same familiar odor Of the in
sane. 1t is not insane asylums alone
but prisons, jails, warehouses, armies
IL camp, churches, schools and nearly
every household, that have character
lctic odors. 1t is when the insane, the
prisoners and the soldier are aggre
gated in large groups or battalions
that their characteristic odor is recog-
nized. Most diseases have their char
acteristic odors and by the exercise OF
the sense of smell they could be utilized
In different diagnosis.
For example, fever has a mousy odor,
rheumatism has copious. sour-smell'
Ing acid sweat. A person afflicted
with pyaemia has sweet nauseating
breath. The rank, unbearable odor
of pus from the middle ear tells the
tale of the decay of osseous tissue. In
scurvy the odor is putrid, in chronic
peritonitis musky in scrofula like
stale beer, in intermittent fever like
fresh baked brown bread, in fever am
moniacal in hysteria like violets OF
pineapple. Measles, diphtheria, typhoid
fever, epilepsy, phthisis, etc, have
characteristic odors.

HA|LSTORM HAVOC
GREAT DAMAGE DONE TO
WHEAT CROPS OF KANSAS.
Insurance Against Loss from Storms
of This Kind Is Now Taken
Out by Many of the
Farmers.

"Hailstorms have destroyed more
wheat in Kansas in the last ten years
than all the grasshoppers and chlnch-
bugs since the state was organized,
SAID a farmer from southern Kansas,
whose crop was destroyed by recent
storm in that section.
Last year one hailstorm in the
northern part of Sumner county ana
the southern part of SedgWlck swept
an area 80 miles long by two miles
wide About $4,000 acres, most OF 1t IN
growing wheat that promised to yleld
Is bushels to the acre, were destroyed.
A half million dollars worth OF wheat
was ruined in that one storm.
The hailstorm was never feared by
the Kansas farmer until wheat be-
came staple crop. Corn will recover
from hailstorm and make an average
crop, but a light fall of ice at certain
time will ruin a crop Of wheat May
and June are the months of hailstorms
In Kansas
In France and Spain where the hail
storms destroy the grape crop large
cannon have been placed on the hills
above the vineyards. At the approach
Of hailstorm explosives are shot into
the cloud, and it's a belief among
farmers-laughed at by scientific men
that the storm is sometimes dissi-
pated. The Kansas farmer doesn't
lombard the clouds. He has found
that 1t pays better to insure his crops.
Hail insurance companies have been
organized The farmer insures his
wheat crop against hail just as the
man in the city insures his house
against fire, He places whatever value
on his crop he can afford to pay the
premium on Some farmers occasional
ly insure SO heavily that they would
not object to a hailstorm to save the
expense of harvesting the crop.
The first hail insurance companies
We're mutual companies, organized
among the farmers of county or a
district. 1t was soon found that those
companies were not safe because a
hailstorm usually cleared a whole dis
trict. Then each farmer was COM
PEELED to bear his own loss, for the
mutual company could not pay. East
ern capitalists have formed a number
of hail insurance companies in the last
five years.
Farmers have a belief that hail will
follow the same path for three con-
secutive years. So if hailstorm de-
stroys a crop they insure heavily for
the next two years.

DIETARY DICTA.

Dinner should be of a lighter nature
in summer than in winter.
A quart of wheat contains more nu
triment than a bushel of cucumbers.
There is happy mean between eat.
ing everything and being squeamish.
Two pounds of potatoes contain as
much nutriment as 13 pounds of
turnips.
Light soups, light desserts and light
meals should have the preference in
warm weather.
Vegetables and fruits are to be used
most generously at that season of the
year In which they naturally mature.
Beginning the dinner with soup is
the very best way to get the whole
system in condition fer assimilating
hearty meal.

THE LIVE STOCK,

Three Cs to stand by--cows, corn,
clover.
To prevent buttirg, tie a stick or a
pole three feet long to the bucks horn,
and let it drag on the ground.
Any animal on the farm will stand
more exposure without suffering thar
a COW giving a large amount of milk.
Salt and ashes are a fine preventive
of sickness in the hog yard. This
means hard wood ashes, never Goa
ashes.
Unless sheep are caught with a crook
more or less wool will be wasted al,
strengthening time. Sheep and lamb.
caught by hand often lose handfuls o.
fleece.
One reason why the hog pastur,
must be restricted in size is that hos
fencing is very costly. The strands
of wire must be close together and the
lowest wire must lie along the ground
The hogs ability to root under almost
anything makes him hard animal ia

ALL KINDS OF HORSES.
What the Farmer Needs Is the Me-
dunn Sized Animal for All
Around Use.

Literally all kinds of horses are
found in the American horse market
There seems to be less uniformity
there than among other kinds of farm
stock. This Is due to the very great
number of different things for which
for milk giving or for beefmaking and
they quite naturally divide into two
general classes. Not 50 with horses
All kinds of work - to be prformed
by them, and each kind of work re-
quires a particular kind of horse This
has given rise also in a certain section
of the country to the demand for the
mule.
The city establishment that has
hard teaming to do wants a heavy
horse that can pun an immense load.
The better the roads over which the
loads are to be drawn the less active
may the horse be, while the poorer the
roads the more active So in som6
cities heavy sluggish horse Is asked
for, but in another a heavy horse
slightly lighter in weight but having
more activity. In the great cities is
found the demand for a cab horse, a
comparatively cheap animal that looks
we'll and can do a fair amount OF
work. The private coach horse is
more of an aristocrat and is demand
cd by the wealthy of the cities.
The farmer wants & medium sized
horse that can lie seryiceable in many
departments of farm work, says the
Farmers Review He avoids the very
heavy horse and the very light horse
The man that spends good part OF
his time on the turf wants a light
horse that is all muscles and sinews
His only quality demanded is the one
that will carry him over the ground at
great rate of speed.
1t does not look now as If we would
be able to get any general agreement
as to what kind of horse Is the most
profitable for the farmer to raise. II

An attempt to raise Fly one class OF
horses, to the exclusion of other kinds
might easily result in glut and low
prices for one class of horses.

WORTH INVESTIGATING.

The use of hand cream sep
arators is very rapidly grow
ing among farmers who milk
COWS for profit. Dairy men
prefer to purchase the cream
and be relieved Of the work OF
separating, and it is much more
profitable for the farmer to do
his own separating, for ne
saves the skim milk on which
he can raise his calves, in addl-
ton to which he saves the haul
ing of his milk, which alone
amounts in many cases to the
monthly payments required to
buy a cream separator. The
best time to separate the cream
from the milk is while it is
fresh and warm. The cream
separates easier and a greater
percentage is obtained, and the
skim milk is left sweet and
fresh to be fed to the calves.
The U. S. Cream Separator,
sold by the Consolidated Wag-
on & Machine Company, has
geatest capacity, SKINS the
cleanest, works the easiest, and
lasts the longest. Agents

THE PLAN OF STATIONARY SHEEP
RACK.

to the wool Though it was not a sure
preventive it was useful. In way.
each sheep was provided with a stall
composed of board about seven inches
wide, This board was backed with an
other four inches so that the space be-
tween where the sheep extended the
head into the stall was narrow, being
only about six inches The stalls"
We're about ten inches wide The wide
rack was attached to one side of the
wall and was supported with a plat
form in front wi,l sufficient standing
room for the sheep Those of our
readers, says the Prairie Farmer, de-
string a rack of this kind which will
aid in keeping the chaff from the wool,
and at the same time providing a good
place to feed, may find some useful
hints in this plan.
