FINDS ANAESTHETIC
 THAT ENDS ALL PAIN

LONDON, June 26. The ab- olition of pain resulting from in jury of operation is promised if the new anaesthetic described in the London Lancet fulfills it's discover CTS claims.
 Dr. Forbes Ross makes the an nouncement in the Lancet, and from the fact that it receives publicity in that conservative publication, the claim of Dr. Ross may be consider ed to have received orthodox ap- proval. Moreover, speaking of the new boon to humanity Dr. Ross to- night said:
 What I wish to make known is the discovery of the wide applica- ton of a prolonged local anaesthetic of incalculable value to humanity.
 By the use of this anaesthetic it is possible today for surgeon to guarantee to a patient freedom from pain after an accident or following an operation. have found an ab- solutely harmless and n-poisonous antidote to physical pain and shock and this antidote can be used with out the least fear of local or general detriment to the sufferer" In the operation the patient is put under a general anaesthetic in the ordinary way and then five to ten cubic centimeters of one per cent solution of quinine and urea-hydro- chloride are distributed over the nerve supply of the part concerned The effect of such treatment is to produce total loss of sensation of pain.
 Popularly speaking the affected part Is put to sleep. The messages of pain from the nerves to the brain are cut off. The patient treated thus feels no pain after an opera tion.

DAIRYING DURING FLY TIME
Two Most Needed Things Are Sprayer
and Repellent-Cool Blanket
10 Also Beneficial.
By M. A. covERDELL.)

IL
A good sprayer and reliable fly re-
pellent will pay for themselves about
twenty times during the fly season, to
say nothing of the comfort afforded
the animals and the satisfaction you
will derive from milking quiet cow
If you don't feel like investing in a
spraying outfit, have your wife make
you a long, cool blanket out of cheese
cloth or some other light material and
spread it over the COW while milking.
This, however, is beneficial at milk
ing time only. The one thing that will
prevent the flies FROM sucking the life
blood and consequently the milk from
the best of your herd, is to spray, and
spray thoroughly while you are at It..
See that the cows have some sort
of good shade. They simply cannot
stand out in the scorching heat all day
and do as well as they would If pro-
tected from the midday sun.
If natural shade is not available, it
will take you but an hour or so to set
some tall posts and make satisfac-
tory shade out Of small brush, old
straw or boards. The COWS must have
shade.
Too many farmers let their cows
rustic water from foul sloughs or from
a tank filled with water warm enough
to wash dishes in.
This is not merely a question Of
comfort and satisfaction to the COWS.
Neither is it necessary simply to add
to your dairy products.
Sanitation demands that the princi-
pal element entering into the compo-
sition of milk be strictly pure free
from every vestige of disease or filth.
