coLoRIne COPPER.
Process For Producing Wide Range
of Shades by Oxidization.

! OF Shades by Oxidization.
Copper and brass lend themselves
readily to a colorng process and may
be worked to all INTERCHANGEABLE, ex-
cepting the lighter shades. which are
lost on copper surface. as that metal
cannot be given tint lighter than its
natural color, says correspondent of
the Sheet Metal Shop. Zinc colors fair
ly well sometimes through narrow
range. while tin Is hard metal to
handle as regards oxide colors.
Copper can be carried through the
entire range of shades, from very
light copper color to the darkest brown
or even black, by merely oxidizing the
surface of the metal Make paste
of iron oxide and graphite with wood
alcohol or with plain water and apply
this to the article, which Is then heated
in an oven or over a gas fame. 1t is
better to use alcohol, as it dries out
much quicker. The color obtained will
depend on the amount of iron oxide
mixed with the graphite and the length
of time the heat is maintained. The
more oxide in the coating the darker
the shade given to the copper.
The remains of the coating should
be removed with a brush or cloth
moistened in alcohol, and when the
surface has become quite clean the
color should be protected by applying
varnish, lacquer or pure wax, which
may be laid on with brush while the
copper Is heated. Some brown colors
are obtained by using a mixture of
verdigris, sal ammoniac and vinegar
using two or three times as much YER
digris and sal ammoniac as vinegar.
The heat treatment is the same as in
the previously related process. and the
color obtained can be made much dark
er by adding some blue vitriol to the
solution.
A red brown may be given by using
n vinegar paste containing equal parts
Of verdigris and cinnabar. together
with two and half times as much
each of sal ammoniac and alum The
heat treatment is the same as for the
other coatings,

HANDLING the Cow.

The fact that a dairy COW is pure
bred is not the only essential or indica-
ton of a profitable cow. II COW is
pure bred there is a greater chance for
her being a heavier mixer than If not
pure bred. However. breeding Is only
an indication that the COW may be prof
liable and that her offspring may be
worth more money in the dairy than
the offspring OF scrub or grade cow.
A well bred COW, capable OF converting
her feed into milk, is. as a matter OF
fact, the first essential in the building
up Of the dairy. Good feeding. good
shelter and proper methods of handling
are other essentials which cannot be
offset by any other quality, not even
good breeding.

SUMMER CARE OF
SHEEP AND LAMBS

The greatest point in the prevention
of the maggot fly is to keep the ewes
and lambs well docked and clean be-
hind, writes w. r. Gilbert in the Ma
tiona Stockman. The shepherd should
be armed with pair Of shears when
he makes his rounds and any sheep
that are inclined to scour little or any
that are wet and dirty behind should
be caught and all the dirt clipped off.
Otherwise the fly will strike there
more readily than anywhere else. When
struck by the fly the ewes, more espe-
cially the lambs. will hold their heads
down, continually wagging their tails
and endeavoring to bite the place af-
fected. and If not attended to will pull
off all the wool. When badly bitten
they will lie behind "a bush away from
the rest Of the flock in great torture, or
as far under hedge as possible out of
the sun.
When found they should at once be
taken to some sheltered place and

Catarrh is a chronic disease of the
nasal cavity caused by germs that
have infected the mucous membrane
Of the nose and postnasal space.
In some of these cases there is a
constant discharge of mucous; in
others there is pus discharge; while
in other yet there is a swelling of
the mucous membrane over the tur-
binated bones of the nose which
makes it impossible to breathe
through the afflicted nostril.
The routine treatment as applied
by most physicians consists of sprays
and douches. These of course clean
the nasal passage, but the germs be-
ing in the glands of the mucous
membrane can not be reached by it
and are not killed. The catarrh con-
tinues.
In the physiologic treatment as
used by Dr. Toel electrodes are in
troduced into the nose connected
with currents of five hundred thous-
and volts. These currents cause only
a little warmth and slight prick
ling sensation, but they generate
an enormous amount of ozone which
kills the germs in the mucous mem
hrane. In those cases of catarrh
where there is swelling and thicken-
ing of the mucous membrane DR..
Ioel either shrinks this with the
high voltage current or where the
bones itself in the interior of the
nose are afflicted he performs an
electric operation with the low volt
age current which permits him to de-
stroy without the loss of any blood
and with none or scarcely any pain
as much of the diseased mucous
membrane and bone as may be necess-
ary to allow the patient to breathe
properly through his nose again.
In enlarged tonsils DR.. Toel either
removes the entire diseased tonsil
without any loss of blood in a few
with the electric loop opera
ton, or he attacks the diseased
spots in the tonsils with the low
voltage current and thus brings the
tonsil to shrinkage. Sometimes he
uses the high voltage current for this.
All thes operations are bloodless and
cause very little pain. They are also
free of the danger of blood poison
ing as the blood vessels and lymphatic
vessels are securely closed up by the
very operation.
