Treatment of a Sick Cow

a loaned her to a neighbor for a while,
and her milk supply dropped from a
gallon TO a pint. 1 feed on hulIs, cot

old negro tells me she has lost
her cud or has hollow tail. but
suppose this is mere superstition. But
IL is true we do not see her chewing
her cud. and she coughs as If trying to
bring up something.
Your COW is evidently suffering some
form OF Indigestion; "A healthy animal
chews the cud or Eliminates, and when
a COW becomes sick she generally ceases
chewing the cud and the muzzle be-
comes dry and the coat staring. 1t Is
probable that your neighbor Overfed
the COW or gave her too much of one
kind OF food. II she has been eating
Lulls alone or corn stalks, she may be
suffering from impactiOn of the rumen.
In that case a dose Of salts will be a
good thing to give her. You should use
about n pound TO a pound and half of
Glauber salts dissolved in water and
given as a drench. This is probably as
useful a purgative as can be used in
this instance. You might give this dose
every other day for two or three times.
Then feed her on bran mashes and let
her have green feed If you can secure
some for her. A field OF oats or rye
will furnish ideal pasture. and we would
cut out the hulls and meal for few
days. Give a two-ounce dose of Jamaica
ginger i'm a pint OF moderately hot
water as a drench three times daily.

The probabilities are that the teat OF
your COW which has lost its function
can never be restored. At least II
would be a very exceptional thing Il
this could be done after two years OF
more have elapsed since the trouble APP
parently first happened. The loss OF
function i'm this teat was probably due
TO an attack OF garget or 'caked bag.
When a calf is dropped there is often
an unusually large secretion of milk
The milk should be drawn from the ud-
der of cows that are free mixers sew
eral days before calving takes place
This will often prevent the caking of
the udder due to Inflammation which
sets in and will prevent the loss of fuDc-
ton. 10 avoid this trouble the milk
should be drawn frequently and the
udder thoroughly rubbed and bathed
with hot water for twenty minutes at
a time. good ointment to use fol-
bathing is made by dissolving two tea.
spoonfuls of gum camphor in a tea
spoonful of fresh melted lard. If only
the milk duct is closed up, It may
be opened by the use of a milking tube
Great care should be exercised in u.s.
ing these instruments, as often they
do more harm than good.
Weak eyes may be caused from one
of several things. First of all, il may
be an inherited trouble In that case
nothing can be done for il. Sometimes
Inflammation of the eyes is caused from
minute objects getting into them. A
careful examination will generally re-
veal the trouble, and the removal OF
the cause will effect a cure. You might
try bathing the eyes with hot water
three times daily for at least twenty
minutes, and then apply few drops
of a solution of boric acid in the
strength of one drachm to three ounces
OF water twice daily. This should cure
any ordinary case Of Inflammation un-
less the cause is deeper seated and has
lasted for a sufficient length OF time
to become chronic.
About the only fertilizer you can use
as a top dressing on oats at the pres
ent time would be nitrate of soda. Other
forms of nitrogen would hardly become
quickly enough available to be OF SER
vice to the plants. The nitrogen in nj
trate Of soda is very quickly available
and hence this material is a favorite
form of top dressing for field and garden
crops. You should not use over lou
pounds per acre and you should take
care TO make the application when the
crop is dry, so as not to inJure the foil
age.

Lice may be destroyed by busting in
sect powder into the hair, or through the
use of kerosene emulsion, which is made
by dissolving one quart of soft soap or
one-fourth of a pound of hard soap in
two quarts of boiling water, and adding
one pint Of kerosene oil. This mixture
should be churned violently and three
quarts of water added when the emulsion
is ready for use. A solution of creolin,
one part to fifty parts of water, win also
prove effective. The animals should be
given salt and sulphur and the quarters
should be cleaned and disinfected thor
oughly. Probably the simplest remedy Of
all is one of the coaltar products now
on the market. They are easy to use and
effective If the treatment is persisted in.
The disinfection of the stables with this
material is also easily accomplished.

PRICE OF MILK ADVANCED
TO 9 CENTS IN NEWARK.
Borden Company Orders Raise,
Other Dealers Undecided.

Patrons of the Borden Condensed
Milk Company today received notice
that the price of milk has been raised
from eight to nine cents a quart. The
Attorney Dairy Company officials today
said their prices will not be raised at
once, and they did not know now
whether an advance will be made later.
The failure of the hay crop this sum-
mer and the consequent higher price of
milk to the wholesaler is the reason
for the increase, say the Borden COM
pany. Nine cents a quart will be the
limit of the increase at present, 1t Is
announced.
Other milk dealers today declared
that they were uncertain as to whether
they would raise the price of milk or
not.
There is little ear of a milk famine,
however. Dealers lay the cause of the
to the fact that farmers will
be obliged to buy most of their feed
during the present year, and to offset
this have put up the price of milk.

SAYS JAIL YAWNS
FOR "REPEATERSS"
/. WHO TRY TO VOTE

Judge Benjamin F. Jones, of the Els
sex County Republican Committee,
who has had charge of the sub-com-
mittee appointed to investigate and
prevent colonization in the voting dis
tricts of the city and repeating at the
polling places, had this to say today
regarding what his committee has dis
covered:
THE Republican County Committee,
through a special committee appointed
for that purpose, has been actively en-
gagged during the past two weeks in in
v~estigating rumors of colonization in
the city of Newark.
This committee has employed q
large number of detectives, who have
made a thorough canvass of the lodg-
ing houses and other places under sus-
picion. These detectives have slept at
these lodging houses, and have asso-
ciated with the men who are suspect
ed of being in charge of the Illegally
registered persons. A notorious leader
of a gang of 'repeaters,' who was in
Gicted with Philip Loesser for repeat
ing, has been seen in Newark during
the last two days,
THE result of these Investigations
it is said, has developed the fact that
illegal registration has been conducted
on a wholesale scale in certain wards in
the city of Newark. and that attempts
will be made on election day to vote
these men, and that gangs of 'repeaters
will be brought ove from New York
and elsewhere for use al the polls to-
morrow.
THE number of illegal registrations
in the Second and Fourth wards is par
ticularly great. In one lodging-house
alone, it is said, not less than thirty
two 'repeaters' have been located ant
have made all their. plans to make the
| rounds on election day. The detectives
employed by the county committee have
| joined several of these gangs, and have
received promises not only of money
but also of profitable employment after
election, if they will take part in these
election frauds. A number of these de-
t~ectives have been introduced to at least
one prominent candidate.
''This fraudulent voting will bt
stopped at all costs. A large number o.
complaints have already been made
and warrants will be issued and placed
in the hands of officers at the various
polling places, and if these men who
have Illegally registered attempt to yot'
they will be arrested on sight. Prose
cutor's detectives have supplemented
the work of the private detectives, ant
the full power of the prosecutors offic'
will be used in stopping illegal voting
Election officers throughout the county
and particularly in certain districts
have been warned of these fraudulen
registrations, and they will be on tn
lookout for the 'repeaters.'"
