NEW TREATMENT OF SCOURs
Mysterious Disease Among Calves
Successfully Treated by Prof. Viii
SON of Canadian College.

A somewhat important step in vet
Urinary medicine has been made by
Professor Wilson of the Harper-Ad.
ans Agricultural college, says the
Canadian Farm. Some farmers In
Salop had suffered heavy loss by q
mysterious disease among their calves
which was SO deadly that not one es-
capped. They showed signs of illness
at about two days old and got worse
until they died about q week later. The
farmer who appealed to the college for
assistance had never been able TO rear
single calf Of his own breeding.
Those bought at fortnight old did
quite well. Professor Wilson after
post-mortem examinations diagnosed
it as form of septicaemia or blood
poisoning, and after an Intellectual
attempt to shut out the malignant
germs by legation and disinfectiOn OF
the naval cords, hit upon the idea OF
giving Tactic acid bacilli in skinned
milk during the first day and gradual
ly introducing the dams milk but
still continuing the Tactic acid bacilli
until the ninth day, when ordinary
rations were reached. This treatment
has been singularly successful and not
a single calf has been lost since.
What is of more general importance.
however, is that this treatment is
proving effective in the much more
prevalent disease. white scours in
calves, and the principle may not stop
here. Setting bacilli to kill bacilli
may yet prove fundamental principle
In animal medicine and it is possible
that great developments may arise out

containing large number of grubs.

to kill the grubs so that he could use
them for bait.
The next morning he went to get

oven was not hot enough to kill the

To Cover Jams.

One Of the best ways of covering
jams and jellies so that they will
keep well is to cover the jars as soon
as they are filed. Have the papers
cut ready and the white of an egg
slightly beaten, brush the papers with
the white of the egg and tie down
quickly. The heat of the jam de-
stroys all germs that might cause it
to mold and dries the egg so quickly
that it is Theoretically sealed.

Best Way to Sell Butter

Much the best way to sell butter is
to work up regular route and sell di-
rect to the consumer. This method is
now largely followed by a number of
our enterprislng dairymen The con-
sumner gets a good article, and the
dairyman gets the full value for what
he has to sell, and that in cash. The
buttermilk can nearly always be sold
for enough to pay for delivering of the
butter. The products from the poul-
try yard can be sold from the same
wagon.

would prove effectual in preventing
swimmers cramp; those liable to

p. II. o'BRIEN's PLEA.
Laurium Attorney Presented Strong
Argument in Ishpemins Cases.

In speaking of the defense made by
Attorney +. II. O'Brien, of Laurium, in
the Sullivan and Rice moving picture
house case, at Ishpeming. in which the
proprietors of the theaters were charg-
ed with keeping open on Sunday in
violation Of the law, the Mining Jour-
nails Ishpeming department says:
MIR. O'Briens plea was largely upon
the question of personal liberty. He
said that a great many others besides
the defendants in Ishpeming, as well
as elsewhere in the upper peninsula
and throughout the state, are violating
the Sunday law. He asserted that the
general public here IS not opposed to
the opening of the moving picture
houses on Sunday. but that the fight
against the proprietors Of the two pic
ture houses is being made almost ex-
clusively by the ministers. He said ii
was evident from the expressions of
the people, and from the patronage
that the theaters are receiving on Sun
day, that there are many Ishpemine
people who favor having them open or
that day. He said that the ministers
who are leading the Sunday closing
movement, could spend their time tC
better advantage by working in some
more worthy cause. He referred par
ticularly to the employment of child
rem contrary to the state statutes. Mr.
O'Brien occupied the greater part OF
an hour i'm arguing his side Of the case
I'm his rebuttal Mr.. Kennedy init
mated that Mr.. Sullivan was employ
ing people i'm his theater under thu
legal age, thereby violating the child
labor law referred to by Mr.. O'Brien
1t is said that both of the theateri
have boy ushers who are under the le
gal age.

to hear the argument in the case coult
not crowd their way into the cour
room. The place was full to suffoca
ton, and the crowd extended through
