known that well-opened pores make q
far finer skin than uncleanly people

Think OF the unfortunates OF the
Middle Age ignorant Of the blessings
of the bath! "One thousand years
without baths!" exclaims Michelet In
one of his histories. Think Of the
pestilence. the hideous diseases which
at that time scourged poor humanity!
I'm the time OF Henry Nv. the habit Of
bathing was still rare, for 1t is record

be washed and not the feet. How

To prevent scours in calves. proper
care should be given to the mother
while pregnant. that she may be able
to give birth to a healthy calf. AS
scours is a germ disease. it Is impor-
tant that the calf be free from this
disease when born. Cows afflicted with
the disease of abortion convey this
disease to their offspring. 1t Is for
this reason that calves SO often die OF
scours before they have even taken
nourishment. II is therefore very nee
cssary that the COW be kept free from
disease in order to obtain healthy
calves.
Calves born afflicted with the germs
of this disease In their system are In
position to spread the disease to
ether calves that they may come in
| contact with in the same herd. or II
shipped to other herds. This is an.
other proof OF its infectious nature.
To prevent and overcome scours In
calves they should be given medicines
that prevent fermentation of food to
allay irritation and congestion, soothe
and heal inflamed mucous membrane
act as an antiseptic, as this Is quite
necessary when the disease Is due to
d germ.
The most important factor In the
raising of cattle Is their care while
young. Do not think that you are do
ing the correct thing if you are only
managing to keep the life in the cali
until it is three months old. and then
have 1t get fat on grass before the
| winter comes. II You do this you will
be apt to have lot of stunted calves
with their digestive organs destroyed
which will never make strong. healthy
cattle. and will not be good for either
dairy, beef or breeding purposes.

HEALTH AND BEAUTY
LARGELY DEPENDENT ON THE
DAILY BATH.
Imperative That the Skin BE Frequent

and Suffering Are Sure to
Follow Neglect.

A daily bath should be part Of the
moral laws of every class Of society.
II it is an impossibility to plunge daily
into a bathtub, or II the doctor for
bids plunge bath, the sponge bath
will prove sufficient for all purposes
of cleanliness or health.
The human skin Is a complicated
net. whose meshes must be kept open
and unclogged. in order that through
them the body may throw of its i'm
pure secretions. which must be gotten
rid OF under penalty OF pain and suf-
fering. and sometimes death.
The healthy action OF the skin is
stimulated by by the opening OF the
pores in the bath. especially IL It is
followed by friction with. a brush or
rough towel, etc. Massage can be
dispensed with II the touch OF a
strange hand Is objectionable.) Many
fe, ers and contagious diseases might
be avoided by these means.
In cases of internal Inflammation,
bilious collie and congestion there Is
no surer remedy than the hot bath

to a contagious disease he should i'm
mediately take a hot bath. There Ii
always a possibility that the disease

SCOURS in CALVES

Scours in calves or calf cholera In
many instances differ from diarrhoea
in grown animals, and has special fea-

infectious intestinal catarrh, which Is
far more serious than the diarrhoea
of the full grown animal.
Sourcs in calves generally appear
suddenly. A perfectly healthy calf
may be seized all at once. apparently,
without any change in food or care.
The symptoms of this infantile diar-
rhoea usually appear during the first
two or three weeks of life. In many
cases scours appear with few
hours after the animal is born. and
the calf may die within from "a to
As hours unless it receives prompt
