STOCK SAYINGS.

Farm animals can stand more cold
than most people suppose and still be
comfortable.
A balanced ration for a given pur.
pose is one that contains the proper
amount and proportion of digestible
carbohydrates, fats and albuminoids to
accomplish that purpose in the most
economical manner.
The Importance of taking good care
of the brood mare and her foal, and of
feeding the mare well so as to make
her yield an abundance Of milk, can
not be overestimated If a frst-class,
vigorous colt is to be raised.
1t is always well to pay attention to
the color in mating a team as a fancy
consideration, but size, and especially
strength and action are much more i'm.
portant in mating a team for useful
ness and to make a pleasant team to
work and drive.
A cow may possess all the signs in
the world that are tokens of a good
mixer and yet be a poor mixer from
the fact that the early care of the cow
and heifer was faulty, nothing being
done to stimulate milk-giving.

PRussIAN GOVERNMENTS CHAR.
lTY BUREAU IN BERLIN.
Officers for This Department Chosen
with Great Care-Are to Work
for the Improvement Of
SOCIAL Conditions .

A national charity bureau exists In
Prussia, controlled by the premier. The
idea was carried out in concrete form
by the provisions of a law passed by
the Landtag in April, 1905. It's duties
are as follows:
First, to follow the development OF
charity work and keep the government
informed of this development; second,
to advise the state Of conditions which
justify change in existing laws or the
passing of new laws, or which sug.
gest change in government methods;
third, to draw up opinions and make
proposals which will help in frami g
laws for the benefit of the people;
fourth, to take general control of re-
lief stations in case of great calami.
ties. 1t will also be the duty of the
department, first, to establish relations
between different charity organiza-
tions, suggest improvements in the
methods of these organizations and
economiZe the forces of the various
bodies; second, to follow the progress
of charitable work and make an index
and collection of all literature relating
to the subject; third. to give informa-
ton and advice in reference to philan-
thropic endeavor when requested to do
so; fourth, to make reports to the
state at short intervals in reference to
the development and progress of the
work in the nation at large; fifth, to
draw up opinions and make proposals
for the improvement or better organi-
cation of the charity propaganda in
part or as a whole; sixth, to take
charge of the development of the work
in any section; seventh, to assist In
putting in operation any suggestions
or plans which may be made or
worked out for the improvement Of
social conditions.
The bureau is a large n and the
officers are chosen with a care justi-
fled by it's Importance. The main
body consists of a general assembly,
which is composed of members of the
liberal professions, public bodies and
individuals and societies engaged in
charitable work. The second division
is known as the advisory committee
and is composed of As members. OF
these 80 are elected by the directors

TUBERCULOSIS IN STOCK.
Most Important Factor In Spread Of
Disease Is In the Manure.

The bureau of animal industry has
made a number of tests showing that
the most important factor in the
spread Of cattle tuberculosis Is the
manure. 1t has been generally sup
posed that milk was not as likely to be
affected unless the cows udder was
tuberculous.
The bureau has found, however,
that the manure from diseased cows
Is usually heavily laden with tuber-
culous bacteria and as these are cas-
lily and almost surely introduced into
the milk, under ordinary methods of
milking, & single tubercular COW may
affect the milk of an entire stable.
Hogs, according to the bureau, also
easily acquire tuberculosis from fol-
lowing cows in the pasture or from
Feeding from skim milk or separator
milk from t~uberculous cattle. The
great increase IN tuberculosis among
hogs is stated by the bureau of ami
NAL industry to be almost entirely
traceable to their association with af-
fected cattle, and the bureau strongly
recommends the sterilization of all
skim or separated milk from public
creameries before it is fed to calves
or pigs.
tuberculosis among animals Is not
necessarily acquired through the
mouth or nose as has been generally
supposed. For instance, tuberculosis
of the lungs was produced in hogs by
inoculating them in the tips of their
tails.
There has beer considerable dispute
as to whether human and bovine tu-
~berculcsis are practically n and the
same, the famous Koch theory rails
ing a storm of dissension-at least
as to whether human tuberculosis or
consumption can result from the con-
sumption of tuberculous milk, etc.
DR.. Melvin, chief of the bureau Of
animal industry, holds to the view
that the two forms cannot be classed
as separate and distinct and that meas
ures to protect persons from infection
from tuberculosis from animals are
highly necessary.
But whether he said, in speaking
Of the matter, "the subject is regarded
from the standpoint of protecting hui
man health, or of promoting the well
fare of the live stock industry, it is be-
yond question of argument that it is
highly important for our stock r~aisers,
farmers and dairymen to eliminate tu'
berculosis from their herds"
DR.. Melvin's predecessor as chief of
the bureau of animal industry, D. e.
Salmon, also held that bovine tuber.
culosis was transmissible to humans
and he took the very sensible view
that even admitting there was doubt
about the matter, the only safe curse
to pursue was to assume that it was
transmissible and to make and enforce
regulations accordingly.
