PRESCRIPTIONS.
A Medical Explanation of why They
Are written In Latin.

The use Of Latin by physicians in
prescription writing Is commonly re-
garded as a harmless survival OF
medinvalis:n. Occasionally lay writer
suggests It's abandonment In com
menting on recent note to this effect
In daily paper, which advocates the
compulsory use of English in prescrlp-
tlons, the Druggists Circular and
Chemical Gazette takes occasion to
honored practice. Says this paper:
Suppose the sapient writer quoted,
whose utterances may sound all right
to those who know no more of his sub
jects than he does, should fall sick and
his physician should decide that the
Geranium robertianum. If there were
law preventing the doctor from pre-
scrlbing In Latin he would have to
choose ene of the upward of dozen
English names for this drug Suppose
he chose 'redshanks' and so wrote the
word In his prescription. When the
druggist went to prepare the medicine
he would find that, 'redshanlis' was the
English name Of at least four entirely
different plants-namely, the one al
ready mentioned, Polygonium am
phlblum, Polygonium persicaria and
Rumex acetosa.
"As with redshanks SO with hundreds
Of other drugs. Aaron's beard may be
Cotlnus continus, Cymbalarla Gym
balarla or Saxifraga sarmentosa. OF
snakeroots there are numberless kinds.
Suppose the English writing doctor
wanted to be sure of getting the right
kind, so specified black snakeroot.
Then is the druggist to dispense Cimi-

How ShnIl Money he Raised-By Fees

How shall the Pomona grange secure
Its finances? Is the question which
sometimes arises for discussion I'm Po-

ways - charge members an initiation
fee alone, or an initiation fee and year.
ly dues, or let each subordinate grange
pay per capita dues to the Pomona
grange. A Pomona grange does not
need large sum In its treasury, and
yet comfortable fund for any cxigen-
cles Is desirable, remarks writer In
the Country Gentleman. We believe
that the initiation fee of so cents per
member, as In New York, will be
found to be sufficient for all the needs
Of most. Pomona oranges, and this
surely Is most convenient arrange
ment for procuring the finances of the
county grange. If we have per cap
lta tax for both Pomona and state
oranges, there will be but little left for
the subordinate grange, and IL annual
dues are charged members of the Po-
mona grange 1t would require very
considerable amount Of labor on the
part Of the secretary Of the Pomona
to see that these dues were collected.
Where the initiation fee is made the
sole source of revenue the Pomona
should not admit to Its fifth degree
session, and Of course cannot, any
fourth degree member who has not
taken the fifth degree. In other words,
to open Pomona grange on the
fourth degree and perform all the
work In that degree, except initiation
of candidates, would be to give the
advantages Of the Pomona grange to
members Of the subordinate oranges,
whether members of the Pomona or
not.

DEGREE WORK.
A Maine Paper Thinks II Consumes
Too Much Time.


Perhaps the greatest bar to bene-
fcial achievement In some of the
younger and most rapidly growing
oranges In Maine, says the Maine
Farmer, Is the almost constant lnitia-
tory work going forward, Not few Of
such have scarcely n regular meeting
during the active season which Is not
devoted to working degrees on classes,
which In many Instances are composed
of but two or three candidates. The
work may be well done and Is of un-
doubted interest to those being In
structed, but to the members not in
the game the constant consumption Of
time for this purpose sooner or later
dampens their enthusiasm for other
work Of Importance.
II the grange In Maine should estab-
lish rule that no degrees should be
worked In any subordinate grange ex-
cept mt two stated meetings during
each quarter without special dis
pensation from the state grange OIL
cials, we believe the effect would be
Of great advantage to the Order. BY
this method special preparation could
be arranged and the work made Of a
much higher character. thoroughly en-
jOyable to candidates, spectators and
those performing the work.
Waste of time and consequent alb
sence Of genuine, enthusiastic discus
sion Of the important problems Of local
and state interest cannot be neglected
by an organization like that which
the Patrons of Husbandry has now be-
come. Such neglect can mean only the
loss Of influence, which never was
more needed than nt the present time
for holding advantages already gained
and advancing other essential refOrma-
tory measures which organized inter-
ests In different lines of activity will
use their utmost influence to prevent
being secured.

RHEUMATISM Is CURABLE
If URIC-0 Is USED
ALL OTHER TREATMENTS FAIL

Is It the unhealthy foods we eat or
the rapid pace in which we live that
cause such an endless amount of Rheu-
matism nowadays? The disease has GER
tainly reached an alarming point, as
this country are more or less afflicted
with some form of this maddening dis
ease. Recent investigation has proven
the fact that Rheumatism is blood
disease, therefore, many bright chem
lists and physicians have had good
ground to work upon, and they have
succeeded in compromising a remedy,
which, If used as advised, cannot fail to
drive and eliminate from the blood and
muscles all traces of mans greatest
evil, Poison Rheumatic Acid. URIC-O
Is the name of this remedy. 1t is a
liquid treatment, made and designed to
cure all forms of Rheumatism and good
for no other disease. There is no poi
son, no alcohol or whiskey entered into
the composition of URIC-O. 1t is SIM
ply a powerful. dissolvent of Uric Acid
and other deposits which seriously
affect the kidneys.
URIC-O is sold at s1.00 per bottle by
druggists generally, or can be obtained
by addressing. the SMITH DRUG COM
PANY, SYRACUSE, N. Y. Samples
and literature will be forwarded to all
who apply for same. Our advice is use
URIC-O. 1t may be the means of saw
ing your life or may prevent you froru

CORN TALK.
A study of Important Points In the
Judging of Corn.

I
Judging of Corn.
There appear to be some vital points
both rs to desirable qualities and de-
fects in picking out good ear of corn.
Professor V. NJ. Shoesmth of the state
college has prepared for the Kansas
boys who engage in corn contests lit
tlt study of corn which furnishes an
elementary guide In corn Judging and
includes among Its twenty-seven prac-
teal questions and answers the ones
here reproduce
f'lrst.-Why ... ..d corn be studied
as to trueness to type or breed?
SO that better idea may be had as
to the certainty with which the char
acters will be transmitted Corn pos
sessed of desirable characters, but
little breed type, Is of little value,
since these characters may be substi-
tuted the following season by latent
or hidden characters Of little value.
Hardness, produetlveness and other
invisible characters may be as dlstlnc
tive breed characteristics as the color,
shape of ears, etc., and these must be
Judged by the type as seen in the Wis
lble characters.
Second.-How may the trueness to
type best be judged?
BY studying the uniformity of the
ears in shape, size, straightness Of the
rows, color, etc, and also by study
ing the uniformity of the kernels In
Size shape, color and lndentatlon. The
uniformity of ears Is studied by com
pairing with the standard of perfec-
tion," but as 1t is difficult to sufficient
ly define the standard of perfection for
the kernels heading Uniformity Of
Kernels" Is placed on the score card.
Thlrd.-Why should an ear of corn
be cylindrical or nearly sof
Because this is the only shape which
will permit of the same number of
rows throughout the length of the ear
and also the same size and shape of
kernels In all parts of the ear. In
tapering ear there must be some short
rows or the kernels must he larger or
have more space between them at butt
than at tip of ear. In such an ear or
one Of Irregular shape some Of the
kernels must be Of Irregular size or
shape, which will not permit Of IN
even distribution by the planter.
Fourth What Is the proper ratio be-
tween the length and the circumfer-
ence Of an ear of corn?
Although there Is not much expert
mental data to show that an ear of
corn should he of exact proportions,
most corn breeders agree that the ratio
between length and circumference
should be about as 10 is to T. 1t
appears that ears which are long and
slender are often associated with plants
which are not possessed OF the great
, est vigor and hardness and also such
ears have relatively small percentage
of grain, while ears which are large In
circumference and short are usually
late In maturing and also often have a
/ small per cent of grain because of an
extremely large cob.

Secretary George Il. Drake of the
New Hampshire state grange, being
asked by the editor of this department
for an opinion on this subject, said: ut
Is my decided opinion that 1t Is better
to pay the actual travelling expenses
Of the delegates in attendance at tho
state grange, but it does not seem best
to pay their expenses for board.

masters and their wives or husbands Of

grange for the actual amount of car

ance at the meeting.
"The committee on mileage and per
diem can easily make up the expense
account Of the session from the printed
list of railroad rates always at hand,
which is / cent a mile for the round

gal attendant at the session specified
