RECIPE FOR RHEUMATISM
Directions To Prepare Simple, Yet RemarSabI
Home Mixture

Directions To Prepare Simple, Yet Remarkable
Home Mixture
There is so much Rheumatism
here in our neighborhood now that
the following advice by an eminent
authority who writes readers of
a large Eastern daily paper, will be
highly appreciated by those who
suffer:
Get from any good pharmacy one
half ounce Fluid Extract Dandelion,
one ounce Compound Kargon, three
ounces of Compound Syrup Sarsa.
parilla. Shake these well in bottle
and take in teaspoonful doses after
each meal and at bedtime; also drink
plenty Of good water.
1t is claimed that there are few
victims Of this dread and torturous
disease who will fail to find ready
relief in this simple homeynade
mixture, and in most cases perma-
nent cure is the result.
This simple recipe is said to
strengthen and cleanse the elimina-
tive tissues of the Kidneys, so that
thev can filter and strain from the
blood and system the poisons, acids
and waste matter, which cause not
only Rheumatism, but numerous
other diseases. Every man orwom
an here who feels that their kidneys
are not healthy and active, or who
suffer from any urinary trouble
whatever, should not hesitate to
make up the mixture, as it is GER
tain to do much good, and may save
you from much misery and suffering
after while.
Our home druggists say they will
either supply the ingredients or mix
the prescription ready to take if our
readers ask them.

Diseased Cattle

The state of Vermont paid $4O,OOO
to the owners of diseased cattle be-
tween July l, 1907, and April l,
1908. This is the main item of the
cost of slaughtering diseased cattle
in nine months, but the expense of
testing and appraisal must also
be added, and this is not yet
made known by official report; it
may be $4,000 more. A large sum
for Vermont to spend, considering
the futile results of the law intended
to stamp out bovine tuberculosis,
The expense of the operation OF the
law and its preposterous features
are, it is understood, worrying some
of our level-headed state officials,
and it is not unlikely that Governor
Proctor's retiring message may con-
tain a reference to it,
Under the present law the state
pays to the owners of diseased cattle
killed rs per cent. of the value OF
the sound animal, which it is safe to
say in most cases, under fairly lib
eral appraisal, amounts to its full
value. 1t is really putting a
premium on diseased cattle, and the
reduction of herd at the beginning
of winter might be made profitable
under law. which provides a free
test of cattle and a generous REIN
bursement for the loss of defective
animals; it even makes diseased
animal of more profit than sound
one.
But the tuberculin test is not
compulsory and it is not surprising
to learn from press dispatches
that applications for the test are
not likely to come in as rapidly now
rs for the last few months, "as farm
ers are turning out their cattle and
getting more out of them"
This is not stamping out tubercu-
losis in Vermont, and buyers will
not look for clean herds in Vermont
while such conditions exist. Rene
dies are suggested by those to whom
we have a right to look for sound
advice. One is in making the tuber
culin test compulsory, and the
payment to owners of condemned
cattle of so per cent. of their value In
stead of 70 in order to make possible
a thorough and immediate wedding
out of Vermont herds. Bovine tu
berculosis can, we are told, be Grad
icated in this way, but only through
the persistent work and cooperation
of cattle owners and the authorities
AS it is now, the state seems to b
buying diseased cattle at higl
price and to the loss of the reputa
ton of Green Mountain cattle.
