Questions and Answers

Most of the COWS have been milking
several months.
Is there any bad effects from de-
horning milk COWS during winter,
and best method of dehorning?
What drugs should I keep on hand
for emergency treatment of COWS as
we have no veterinarian nearer than
100 miles?
What amount of salt per day and
what is considered best kind for dairy
COWS, half groud, fine or brick salt?
What causes "wart eye," or rather
poughenss of the skin around the
eyes and parts of head on cattle, and
what is the remedy? S. J. M. Met
how, Wash.
Answer: Alfalfa hay, all the COW
will eat up clean. A mixture of
grain; one part bran, one par corn,
one part oats.
Feed one pound grain to three
pounds of milk, few boiled potatoes,
about 10 pounds may be fed to furnish
succulence, but at $500 per ton, 1
would not consider potatoes as an
economical feed.
We prefer to dehorn COWS when dry
about six weeks before calving, but
when properly cared for, they may be
dehorned during the milking period.
A slight fall in the milk flow will be
noticeable the day of the operation,
but in a couple of days the flow will
be normal. The saving method leaves
a wound that is usually easier to heal,
but clipper If sharp and properly
handled gives fair results. We prefer
the former method. If possible to
pick your milk COWS while they are
still calves, it would be better to ap-
ply caustic potash to the horn button
while the calf is under 365 days old,
being careful to keep the caustic from

PROBABLY ABORTION.

Question: Would like advice from
you. We have only one COW. Have
been making butter right along until
two weeks ago, but now I cannot
churn the cream. She will be fresh
in April and seems as if there has
been an increase of milk the last
three weeks. We are feeding the same
ration as before. Is it good test for
butter to heat the cream? Will the
butter PARTICLES come to the top? l
tried the same with this cream but
there was no butter to be seen. j.
E. F. Mabton, Wash.
Answer: AS you approach the time
Of calving, it is well to cut the cows
ration and give no grain. The COW
should be dry at least six weeks. If
an increase in production has resulted
while the cow was receiving same
care and feed, look for case Of abor-
ton.
The churn test or oil test is not an
accurate test for fat in milk. The
Babcock test is the most accurate test,
and is also easiest to operate. Direc-
tons for making will be sent on re-
quest.

the surrounding skin.
For general use, we think it advls-
able to keep the following veterinary
articles on hand in case of emergency:
l. A bottle of creolin, or similar
disinfectant. This can be diluted
with water and used as mild as the
case needs. 2. A box of carbOlated
salve, to be used for application to
chapped teats and caked udders.
Is. A supply of Epson salts. 1t is
usually safe to give from one to two
pounds as drench in nearly every
cause, no matter what the ailment
4. A trocar, in case of bloat. 3. A
milk fever outfit if there is danger Of
milk fever,
A COW usually consumes about one
pound of salt daily, but we have found
that the best way to feed salt to dairy
COWS is to let them have access to it
at all times in the lot. The rock salt
in brick form is the best to use il the
box in which it is kept is not protect
ed from rain.
From your description of "wart-
eye," I think you refer to. ring worm
which is a germ disease. This can
usually be cured by an application of
some disinfectant such as the crude
creolin as mentioned previously. If
this is not effective try something
stronger, being careful to keep it out
of the cows eyes.

The Democrat 5 Demise.

In the demise of the Nashville DEM
ocrat the expected has happened. The
old, old story OF an attempt to give
Nashville two morning papers has had
the usual ending.
Nashville is among the best cities in
the South. 1t is growing by leaps and
bounds. Nashville advertisers are the
peer Of advertisers anywhere else in the
South. Nashville offers opportunity for
many industries But Nashville has
never supported two morning papers
or evening papers, either. as for that
and never will until the population has
been increased about $4,000 above its
present record.
For at least six months it has been
very plain that the Democrat was los
ing ground. It's advertising was falling
off. Its circulation was falling off. And
when its candidate for Mayor was de-
feated so overwhelmingly and its legis-
tative policies so positively repudiated,
it became equally as plain that its po-
liticaI influence had fallen off.
But leaving politics out Of the con-
sideration altogether, the Tennessean
and American under the ownership Of
Senator Luke Lea has developed into a
newspaper that is the equal of metro
politan dailies of much larger cities.
To compete with it and secure the pat
ronage of that large class OF readers
who do not take paper because Of its
politics, but because Of its qualities as
q real up-to-date newspaper, it was
necessary for The Democrat to publish
a paper equally as good. This it failed
to do after the first year OF its existence.
The Sun congratulates the Tennes-
sean and American upon its success
and wishes for it not many years, but
many decades of continued success
and an ever-increasing infiu-
ence for the cause of good government
and clean politics. jackson Sun.

Kissing and Colds.

Boston is much disturbed. The las
sizes OF the Hub City are indignant and
the lads are honestly mad. The Depart
ment of Public Health and Charities
has issued a bulletin ia which the pub
lie is warned that common colds are
often contracted by kissing.
The Board must; have very poor
opinion in regard to the warmth OF the
OF the Boston kiss. It is libel against
Boston society. That kiss could pos
sibly be so frigid as to produce cold
seems almost impossible II is entirely
unlike the southern brand, which sends
tingle through the blood, brings a
flush OF warmth to the cheeks OF the
contracting parties and inspires feel
ing Of youth even in people old and ser
date and inclined TO Ice chilly.
The Boston kiss should be subjected
to critical analysis, il there be a rudi-
ment OF truth in the accusation OF the
Board OF Public Health and Charities.
This much must be admitted, a cold
that results from kiss. o cold that fol-
lows kiss, a cold THAT is created by a

ceptional cold. 1t IS a cold that cannot
be properly diagnosed by any physician.
Besides, the man who would not will
lingly pay for kiss with cold is aman
unfit to exist. He has only water in his
veins, not warm, manly blood All sex
instincts must be truly atrophied.
What is simple coldg 1t is not seri-
GUS or severe. Kingdoms have been
endangered for kiss. Lives have been
risked for the exchange Of lips. Why1
should the Board OF Health and Chari-
ties worry about mere cold2
The average man, if he is a man, will
brave the direst perils for the sake of
kiss. They have done so since the very
beginning Of the world and they will |
continue to do so until the death knell
OF eternity is sounded.

transparent fabrics for waists and bodi-
ces. Full flowing lines are employed,
even for taiIor-made wear, but materials
are so soft and clinging that the lines OF
a neat figure are quite as we'll defined
in these as in the old-time tight-fitting
bodice. Vest blouses, which simulate
a mans vest, only that the front and
back are built of the same material,
come nearest to the old-time fitted bod
ice which is threatened by designers but
which still fingers in the background.
These "Vestce waists" have sleeves Of
thin material silk, lace, chiffon or

color as we'll as in fabric. Very smart

of the colors Of the figured stuff. These

old Ben Johnson's exquisite lines.
II the gaIlants of Boston are to be
discouraged by the bulletin we can only
cry .Shame on you. It sometimes
takes courage to be coward, but the
coward who is afraid TO risk the con-
traction OF cold as a penalty for a
kiss is a coward beneath contempt. OF
course, the long kiss, the kiss Of love,
described by Byron, may be debated
upon. We would far rather accept the
views Of George Villiers, who appropri-
ately said kisses are like grains Of
gold or silver found upon the ground,
OF no value themselves but precious as
showing that a mine is near" AT any
rate, the poets dealing with kisses say
nothing of colds. -Commercial Appeal.
