been fully demon strated By G..

cows TO die from the effects OF

season Of the year. and recently
he had a very fine COW. Tor which

she wanted until found next
morning. He said she would be
dead before twelve o'clock. He
began to cast about in mis- mind
tor commonsense remedy for
poison, and decided to drench
the COW with salt water.
He put half gallon of salt
lnto twc-gallon bucket pour.
ing on two gallons OF warm water
aud then drenched the cow with
round long-necked bottle.
Then gave quart of sweet milk -,
and the cow Is still living and
lonks as we'll ae ever. She did
not appear even to become sick
although she did not eat any thing
the day OF the operation. He
hopes that this remedy will be
helpful to some coed man who
might otherwise lose a good cow
or mule.
Well, the farmers county un-
ion meeting at Antioch was q
success from every point OF view

was much pleased with the prac.

fact that you are devoting con.
